Meet Hazel – Your Local Dog Walker

Hi, I’m Hazel! After 20 years working in the parcels industry, I decided it was time for a new challenge—something that brings joy and makes a difference. Growing up, our home was always full of pets because my mum could never say no! More recently, my rescue dog Meg was my loyal companion for 13 wonderful years. She loved her walks and playing ball, and she inspired me to turn my passion for dogs into a career.

Now, I’m proud to offer professional dog walking services for busy pet owners in Wakefield and surrounding areas. Whether you need regular walks, occasional help, or someone to give your dog the exercise and attention they deserve, I’m here to help.

Reviews about Hazel Shepherd

Nothing is too much trouble

Nothing is too much trouble

I can highly recommend the team at Digs for dogs. They have supplied a dog walking services for our two English Springer Spaniels when we have been on holiday for the past 3 years. They are friendly and professional and nothing is too much trouble. They are also very reasonable price wise. Thanks to the whole Digs for Dogs team, you do a great job!
We couldn't recommend them highly enough!

We couldn't recommend them highly enough!

We would just like to say how pleased we are with Digs for Dog’s dog walking services. They have been brilliant with keeping up Alfie's training, and adapting to any special requests we had when our dog wasn’t very well recently. They are reliable and understand our dogs needs (which is needed with our energetic 1 year old!). We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
We have one tired puppy now!

Fantastic dog walking service from Digs For Dogs! For two days a week they have looked after our 4 month old puppy Lola - who is a handful to say the least! Digs for Dogs walk her, look after her in her home and they also did a bit of training with her and she's come back a much more obedient puppy! She also had the chance to socialise with other dogs and learn to be away from home! We have one tired puppy now! Thank you so much! We will definitely recommend Digs for Dogs you to others!
