Garth has looked after our dogs for about 15 years now and they love him! Our new puppy actually jumps in his arms when he comes to pick her up!

Garth took our standard poodle, Oliver out for his daily excursions for about a year before we moved. Oliver couldn't wait to get in Garth's van, each time. He loved it so much. Garth is completely passionate about dogs, and is a great pack leader. I would recommend Garth's services to any dog owner, even those as protective of their furry family members as we are.

Winston our Spoodle loves his walk days with Garth from Walks Woofs n’ Wags, and it’s comforting to know that he is in the caring hands of a patient professional dog handler. Garth is very accommodating at short notice to met any changes we might require in walk days and times. Winnie is so excited when Garth arrives to pick him up and we know Winnie is having a great time with the other dogs from the regular photo and video updates Garth provides on Facebook and Instagram. Winnie can be an anxious dog at times but when he is with Garth he is always confident, happy and playful. I highly recommend the dog daycare services provided by Garth at Walk Woofs ‘n Wags.

My dog Tambo loves Garth - he is always so excited to see him and loved the adventures he has with him and the other dogs.
Garth has also always been flexible and accommodating for my schedule and needs.
I highly recommend him and trust him!!

Garth has been exercising and minding our dog Oliver for several years. Throughout that time, we have found Garth to be exceptionally reliable and trustworthy. We have observed Garth with his own dogs and it is apparent that these are treated as if they are Garth's children. It is also clear that Garth regards all dogs in his care with the same loving and protective approach.
Garth has undertaken training in dog behavior and understands the importance of utilizing the natural instinct of the pack to socialize dogs. As a result of Garth's services, our dog Oliver socializes with many dogs with greatly improved ease. After each outing Oliver appears very relaxed and he is very enthusiastic to jump in Garth's van each time he is collected. I have recommended Garth's services to many friends who have been equally impressed with his reliability and the manner with which he cares for our beloved pets.

It is with pleasure that I provide this reference for Garth and Doggy Style Walking. Garth has been walking my dogs since 2009. Currently he walks Keoco my Japanses Spitz three times a week. Garth started walking Keoco in February 2012. He has also had Keoco in his care while I have been away on holidays. It is truly evident that Garth and Keoco have a strong bond and Keoco thoroughly enjoys her walks with Garth. He has always proven to be reliable and I can depend on Garth to take good care of Keoco. I have also recommended Garth to walk my sons family dogs,Cooper and Cabo, they are also very happy to have the dogs in Garth's carre. I alway know that our dogs are in good hands when they are with Garth and have peace of mind knowing they are getting their walks.

Garth from Walks Woofs n Wags has been the most amazing service for myself and my Boston terrier. Garth is very passionate and caring and I truly feel that my Boston terrier is in the safest caring hands. My dog gets extremely excited when she hears Garth come to pick her up, and it’s great that i get to see updates of their fun adventures. When I’m at work or if I have to go away, i know my Boston terrier has the best time ever. I highly recommend Garth and his amazing services.

It is with good confidence that I am providing a referance of good character for Garth.
I have know Garth since April 2006, at the commencement of the Canine Good Citizens Instructors Course. This nationally accredited programme is run by the Delata Society and promotes positive reinforcement dog training and the enhancement of the human animal bond.
During my interactions with Garth I have always found him to be a dependable and conscientious individual who can be relied upon. He has demonstrated a very good command of dog handling skills and a genuine care and concern for all animals. I am particularly encouraged that Garth has taken the initiative to enroll himself in the Canine Good Citizens instructor's course to be involved with positive reinforcement training methods as this is very important for the psychological well being of animals. Being involved in the veterinary and animal care industry, I believe it would be of benefit to have more people like Garth who is equipped with these skills that avoid the use of harsh training and control methods. I would not hesitate to recommend Garth to have your animals under his care.

Garth has been walking Sampson Monday to Friday for four and a half years and when required picks him up from the groomer. Garth is completely reliable and looks after Sampson as if he were his own. After some bad experiences with other dog walkers we are very lucky to have found someone who genuinely cares about Sammy and his well-being. Sammy loves Garth and we trust him implicitly with our most treasured possession! I would recommend Garth to anyone.

Garth has walked both of my dogs, two Weimaraners, since 2011, almost 9 years in total. During that time he has walked them every week Monday to Friday apart from when we go on holidays and the like.
Garth has been excellent during that time.
He has always looked after the dogs very well, they are always given a very good walk each time he takes them. The dogs were always pleased to see him, he never misses a day and he has always been a pleasure to deal with.
Garth has always been prompt, reliable and trustworthy.
He has always shown he understands the dogs, their different personalities and knows how to control them and the other dogs in the pack.
I would highly recommend Garth for your dog walking and pet care needs. Better still, judging by their reactions, my dogs would highly recommend him.

Garth has been walking our Boxer Penny for almost 2 years now and we couldn’t be happier. She started with him when she was just a pup and we can see how her spending so much time with Garth and the other dogs has helped her develop into such a happy, well-behaved and well-socialized dog. We know how much effort and care Garth puts into his time with the dogs by seeing how extremely excited she gets when she hears him coming to the door in the morning and how pooped she is when she returns!
We have also left Penny in Garth’s care while we have been away and we are always at ease knowing she’s being well looked after. It’s a holiday for her too! We also want to express how impressed we are with Garth’s consistent professionalism and dependability. We are so fortunate that Penny gets to be a part of the amazing Tales on Trails pack and hope to have her with Garth for a very long time!

Garth has been walking our dog Jelanie five days a week for the past year and has a key to our backyard. He has also had Jelanie in his care when we went away. We can highly recommend Garth; we have found him to be extremely reliable and responsible. Our dog was particularly shy and resistant to going out with strangers, but clearly loves Garth as he is more excited to see Garth these days than us.

Garth has been walking my dog Wrigley, for almost one year, five times a week.
Wrigley came to me as a 1 1 /2 year old with separation and anxiety issues which were being managed, however it became clear that not only would he benefit from more exercise but also from regularly mixing with other dogs and people too. During this last year he has become a very happy and well balanced dog who is much more sociable with other dogs. He has stayed with Garth in his home for both short and long periods and happily adapts to his new but temporary environment, living happily with Garth's dogs and with others who may also be staying.
He now loves Garth and is very happy to spend time with him.
I cannot recommend Tails on Trails highly enough.

Garth and Tails on Trails has been walking and looking after Tex, our golden retriever for 4 years and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Garth has taken incredible care of our dog and he cannot wait to bound out the door each day when Garth arrives.
Garth is highly professional and an excellent communicator. This is super important as we all lead busy lives. He's always been able to work around our family's schedule.
He even goes the extra mile to let us know if he thinks Tex isn't quite himself on a given day, or he thinks maybe we should follow up with the vet on something.
The only reason we'll no longer be using Garth is because we're moving house to an area he doesn't cover.

I have know Garth as a personal friend for over 12 months.
Although I have had no professional dealings with Garth, having heard of him talk of his ambitions, business aspirations and work ethic, I have formed the firm opinion that he is conscientious in all his endeavours, completely trustworthy and always reliable and respectful toward others.
I have observed the way that Garth cares for his own pet dogs. If I decide to become a dog owner, I would not hesitate in calling upon Garth's services and knowledge with confidence.
I strongly recommend Garth as a trustworthy, diligent individual and career for your dog or other animals

Garth has been looking after our rescue Staffy, Bruce for the past 4 years - 5 days a week and the occasional sleepover.
I was so happy when I found out he had also had staffy's and understands them thoroughly as they are very smart and will walk all over you if you don’t give them boundaries.
Bruce loves his daily walks and we wish we could take Garth with us to the US!”

I have the delight to write a few words about Garth.
I was first introduced to Garth in 2010 when my pug was 2 years old and from then, he walked George daily for over 9 years.
From the very beginning, I noticed they developed a fantastic bond, one that was based on caring, kindness and doggy treats.
I can sincerely say that during those years, I found Garth’s professional and dedication to George unwavering and as the years passed, and as George started to slow down their bond grew. At no stage have I ever doubted Garths love and dedication to Georgie, the respect he gave him, picking him up in his older years when he was too tired to walk but never too tired to eat. It goes without saying, that I trust Garth 100% accessing our home with his own keys but more importantly looking after my little boy so well with such love and respect.

Garth has been walking Ruby ever since she was a wee puppy which is 4 years ago now. The only way to judge if Ruby enjoys the walks is her reaction when she sees Garth - she gets so excited and clearly adores him and I think the feeling is mutual! Garth loves dogs and it shows - he is so caring and gentle with all his dogs. I would recommend Garth without a seconds notice.
