Walking dogs in IG7, 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. Chigwell walks like a proper town patch — period streets with small gardens and social dogs, estates around them where both run bigger. In a town this size the pack IS the advert — the same five dogs crossing the middle of Chigwell at ten sharp does more than any leaflet ever will. Puppies follow moving vans as surely as spring follows winter, and this patch moves roughly 276 households in a normal year.
The parking. Out here kerb space is rarely fought over, and estate pickups usually hand the van a drive. The van gets seen everywhere in a place this size, and a liveried van with a happy pack behind it is the cheapest marketing in the trade. Town walking splits neatly: street loops for the quick visits, and the short hop to open ground for the main pack hour.
The round. The round in IG7 works around Chigwell, Hainault, Grange Hill, Alderwood Terrace and Chigwell Row. Around 8,522 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.

| Local going rates from our regional price model. The IG7 holder sets their own prices — we never touch the money. | |
What owning IG7 is actually worth
Put it the way you'd put it at the park gate: one kept dog pays for the page several times over, every single year. And unlike an app, the second dog doesn't cost you a penny more.
