Where the work comes from

How introductions flow for a dog groomer or dog walker

Your best referrals don’t often come from cold advertising. They come from people who regularly work with busy dog owners and new puppy owners – often right at a new puppy or a return to the office. This is why vets, pet shops and estate agents are natural referral partners for every dog groomer or dog walker.

How our meetings work

We meet every Thursday from 6:30am to 8:30am, so it’s done before your working day starts. Each week you have at least a minute to present your business – far more than some other networking groups give you. Between meetings, members arrange one-to-one catch-ups to understand what each other is looking for.
