Countryside dog walking in HorshamHello, I’m Flossie.

I’ll be the one collecting, walking and bringing your dog home. We’ll head out for a proper countryside adventure, then I’ll bring them back happy and ready to snooze.

Inspired by my grandfather, a vet, I’ve spent over 10 years caring for animals, from veterinary practices and kennels to starting Canine & Country. My Labrador, Pepper, has been beside me throughout.

Before the first walk

We’ll start at your home.

A chance to meet, talk through your dog’s routine and ask anything you’d like to know.

  1. 01

    Get in touch

    Tell me about your dog, where you live and the walks you’re looking for.

  2. 02

    Meet at home

    I’ll come to your home to meet you and your pup, so I’m a familiar face when walk day comes. The meeting is free.

  3. 03

    Arrange a first walk

    We’ll agree the details, and I’ll collect your dog for their first countryside walk.

A few things to know

About the walks.

Ask Flossie
01Is a group walk right for my dog?

I only walk friendly, well-socialised dogs who enjoy the company of others. Group walks aren’t suitable for reactive dogs. I’ll meet you and your dog at home before their first walk.

02Are collection and drop-off included?

Yes. The £15 includes local collection and drop-off in my fully crated van, as well as 45–60 minutes of walking time outdoors.

03Will my dog be walked off lead?

Only in suitable places, with reliable recall and your agreement. We’ll discuss this at the meet-and-greet.

04Will I get photos?

Yes. Photo updates are available directly, through the client WhatsApp community or on the Canine & Country social pages.

05Where does the meet-and-greet happen?

I’ll come to your home to meet you and your pup, so I’m a familiar face when walk day comes. The meeting is free, and we can talk through your dog’s routine and any questions you have.
