Zen Dog is more than a service its a love of dogs, rooted in nature with a team of zen dog guardians
It was created four years ago with a few extraordinary dogs, one man and a deep love for Hampstead Heath. Born from long walks in nature and a desire to give dogs more than just a service, Zen Dog was created to offer something different—something meaningful.
We believe dogs deserve more than quick walks and surface-level care. They thrive through positive, safe and enriching socialisation. That’s why every Zen Dog walk is an opportunity for your dog to roam, bond, and feel deeply nourished—physically, emotionally, and mentally.
What started as a solo journey quickly grew into a carefully chosen team—people who care as deeply as we do. We call ourselves Zen Dog Guardians because our role is not just to walk, but to guide, protect, and enrich. Our team is built on shared values and a deep reverence for dogs and the natural world.
We walk in wild, open spaces like Hampstead Heath because we believe that’s where dogs come alive. We don’t rush. We don’t overcrowd. We take the time to know each dog, to honour their nature, and to build relationships based on trust and joy.
Zen Dog Hampstead exists to raise the standard in canine care—to bring excellence, mindfulness, and heart into everything we do.
