Walking dogs in AB53, honestly.

Written dog walker to dog walker. This is the ground truth the apps and lead sites have never stood in — at six in the morning, in the rain.

The doors. Mud to the hubs in November, glory in May — AB53 is lane-and-village country with a dog at nearly every gate. An acre of garden still isn't a walk — country dogs need the lane time and the sniff work same as any, and the owners who understand that keep a walker for years.

The parking. Gateways and gravel everywhere, wardens nowhere. Long drives mean proper handovers — a minute with the owner, a note about the gate code — and a client relationship city rounds never build. The whole patch is walking country — the currency is local knowledge, not access.

The round. The round in AB53 works around Turriff, Balmellie Crofts, Millbrex, Oldwhat and Balthangie. Around 5,366 households live here, and the ones who take a dog walker keep them — five days a week, term time and holidays, years on end. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept.
