SW4
Clapham Common at 7am is basically a dog social club. You’d fit right in. Walk dogs in Clapham with Seekies, a new on-demand dog walking app in London: one household at a time, on the walks you choose, paid every week.
Your patch
Clapham is one big Common surrounded by terraces and flats, and most SW4 dogs walk on it every day, so a Clapham walker can do a whole morning within a mile of Mount Pond.
Clapham Old Town and the Pavement, Abbeville Road, the roads off Clapham High Street, Clapham North towards Stockwell, and the Northcote Road side over towards Battersea.
A Clapham round: a 30-minute loop past Mount Pond with a labradoodle from the Old Town, a 20-minute walk from a flat on Clapham High Street, and an hour on the far side of the Common with a nervous rescue who likes it quiet.
Clapham North, Clapham Common and Clapham South on the Northern line, Clapham High Street on the Overground, and the 35, 37, 88 and 345 buses.
Walkers here usually start from SW4, SW9, SW11, SW12 and SW2. You set your own starting postcode and how far you will travel when you apply, and you only see walks inside that.
