Services
We are immensely proud of our beautiful doggies, but what makes our service is our amazing team! Drew attends all initial client consults and places and organises the dogs in their groups for best suitability. He consults with our walking clients should any training issues need addressed and works with them at weekends if needs be to ensure our pooches are the best behaved they can be!
As dog owners ourselves, we understand that having a happy dog is not quite as straight forward as just giving them a fun walk! As much as socialisation and proper exercise is super important we believe that a healthy dog is a happy dog and for us this begins with nutrition and a proper diet. After a few months of being puppy parents we realised that upset tummies not only affects our pooches health but also their behaviour!
Our dog Teddy has been with Kensington Hounds since we moved to the UK in 2017 and we can't say enough amazing things about them. When we leave our dog for the day or when we are on holiday, it is invaluably reassuring to know that she is with someone who will take care of her just as we would (and probably better!).

Absolutely fantastic service - true life savers. The whole team are all so attentive and get to know their doggy clients and owners individually which is what I think sets them apart from a lot of other "solutions" for dog walking/care.
We have daily walks and weekly training sessions with Drew which are a highlight of our pup's week, and also ours and it's fantastic to have someone who knows our dog and able to monitor her behvaiour on the walks, which can then steer the training.
They are so helpful and responsive - I honestly don't know how we would have coped with the early months of our

It's a familiar sight - Georgie with her team, happily out and about around Kensington Gardens with some dogs close-by. I met Georgie while I was out running today and we had an interesting conversation about her work :D
I was impressed by her knowledge of dogs and the ease she displays with them. Managing animals is a task that requires considerable skill and commitment. Georgie is highly engaged in her work and is able to track many different variables, such as other dogs, people, interactions between those parties, environmental conditions, etc.
Perhaps we can all be more supportive of Georgie

My pup has been going on group walks with KH since he was 3/4 months old and was loving it. Think he was more excited to see the walkers when they come to pick him up than getting back home and see me :)
Then when Archie was around 7 months old, he started to become lead reactivity, barking at everything on the roads - dogs, bikes, runners etc. and Drew & Georgie were amazing in that time. We did a few months of weekly private sessions with Drew, who was brilliant. With each session, he really took the time to explain dog behaviour, what leads to it, body language, things to look our for and ways

I cannot speak highly enough of Georgie and Drew's company. Their exceptional ability as dog whisperers is immediately evident but they're also professional, generous with their knowledge, and just an all round pleasure. We feel very blessed to have Ernie, the Pyredoodle in their regular care on dog walks and one on one training sessions... Kensington hounds even deliver his frozen raw food and favourite treats directly to our door!

It is quite a challenge to find a trustworthy dog walker who not only walks your dog, but also is reliable and takes into account the breed and condition of your dog. I cannot recommend more Georgie and her team. Not only they are very knowledgeable about the requirements of different dogs, they are very passionate about all things dog related. You can always ask for an advice about food, health and or any issues relating to behaviour of your pet. I am always very conscious about Frankie being a pug, and thus he has his limitations as a breed. I can completely trust Georgie with him, be it a hot

Georgie and Drew are one fabulous duo! My experience with them has been absolutely amazing and I'm delighted they walked into our lives!
Whether on group walks in the park, training with Drew or general dog tips, Kensington Hounds are passionate about what they do, have extensive knowledge and are always kindly taking the time to share their wisdom to new dog owners. My cocker spaniel puppy adores them and I know he is always in excellent hands. I am extremely thankful for everything they have done and could not recommend them enough!

Kensington Hounds provides the best dog walking and boarding service hands down. I don't even know where to start on how great they are. We have boarded our precious Zoe with them many times, and she always is excited to go with them and happy upon her return. We wouldn't leave her with anyone else. Zoe is super excited when they collect her for her exercise...and nice and pooped when she returns. I can't recommend them enough! Thanks to the whole gang!

Martha loves her walks so much with Ryan or anyone of the amazing Kensington Hounds team. They are professional, knowledgeable and really care about them wellbeing of the animal in a holistic approach. Any question you may have about your animal, the team at Kensington Hounds has an opinion and i have found them to be superb. From food, to treats to exercise and obedience.. my golden retriever has truly matured through their input. And she has met some great friends. Now at 9 months, her walks and care from Kensington hounds has enhanced her puppy period and beyond. I truly recommend them extremely

AWESOME! Drew, Georgie, Jamie, and Ryan are fantastic!
I really can't praise these guys enough. From the minute Drew and Georgie walked in the door, it was obvious that they were good people, they were real dog people, and they knew their stuff. And if my own instinct wasn't enough, Sadie (my yellow Lab) loved them immediately.
We boarded Sadie with KH, and when she came home she had clearly had a great time; she was even a bit fitter than before. We wondered if we were giving her as much exercise and stimulation as she needed. So, when we had a couple of days a week when it was difficult for

Kensington Hounds are amazing and I could not recommend them highly enough. They have been so helpful with loads of advice in helping us raise our puppy and all of their staff have been absolutely brilliant with her. Our pup loves going on walks with them and seemed like she’d had a fabulous time when she boarded there. We are so pleased we found Kensington Hounds as we never have to worry about her and the company couldn’t be lovelier!!

We love Kensington Hounds. I had a hard time finding a flexible reliable dog walking service and Drew was recommended to me by a friend. They are professional and loving with the dogs they walk. Our dog loves the walks and exercise and I love that I can trust them completely with my dog. Highly recommend.
