Alexandra Park — 60 acres on Whalley Range's edge, your dog's daily commute.
Whalley Range sits right on the edge of Alexandra Park — a Grade II-listed Victorian park, 60 acres, with a lake, woodland, open lawns and one of the best café-park combinations in the city. For M16 dogs, this is your daily commute.
I'm based in Chorlton, a five-minute drive from Whalley Range. I cover M16 as part of my regular weekly route. The grand Victorian terraces here mean a lot of older dogs who need gentle, regular walks — that's a service I do well.
The parks and routes I actually use in M16 — not a generic list of green spaces.
The crown jewel. 60 acres. Lake with swans, woodland, a bandstand, a café. Off-lead areas for confident dogs, on-lead for the lake circuit. Genuinely world-class for an inner-city park.
Smaller residential park between Whalley Range and Chorlton. Quiet, manageable, good for senior dogs.
A 10-minute walk south. 80 acres of off-lead playing fields. Worth the extra distance for confident dogs.
The leafy streets themselves — Withington Road, Wood Road, College Road — make for genuinely pleasant on-lead urban walks for older or recovering dogs.
Same services I run across all of South Manchester. Whalley Range clients get the same pickups, the same photo updates, the same small-pack walks.
60-minute walks in small groups (max 6 dogs). I match dogs by energy and temperament — your dog isn't just shoved in with whoever's around.
For nervous, reactive, recovering or senior dogs who need one-to-one attention. Same hour, same updates, just no other dogs.
Short walks for under-6-month puppies. Lead training, socialisation, and a tired pup at the end. Builds towards full walks as they grow.
I cover the eight postcodes below. If you're on the edge of my radius, ask anyway — I sometimes take on neighbouring streets if the route works.
30 minutes. No payment. No obligation. I come to you, meet your dog, and we work out if we're the right fit.
