Peckham Rye on a Saturday morning: more dogs than people, and everyone’s in a good mood. Walk dogs in Peckham 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
Peckham is Peckham Rye at the bottom, Burgess Park at the top and Rye Lane in the middle, with terraces and garden flats all round and a lot of dogs who start the day on the Rye.
Rye Lane and Peckham Road, Bellenden Road and Choumert Road, Queens Road and Nunhead, and the East Dulwich side towards Lordship Lane.
A Peckham round: a 30-minute walk on Peckham Rye with a staffie from Bellenden Road, a 20-minute visit and garden break for a puppy on Choumert Road, and an hour round Burgess Park lake with a husky from the Camberwell end.
Peckham Rye and Queens Road Peckham stations, the Overground at Nunhead and Denmark Hill, and the 12, 36, 37 and 343 buses.
Walkers here usually start from SE15, SE22, SE5, SE14 and SE4. You set your own starting postcode and how far you will travel when you apply, and you only see walks inside that.
