About

Meet Barrie

Reliable · professional · canine first aid · fully covered

Henry’s Dog Walking is run by Barrie Harper Cole — looking after dogs across Selby and the villages since 2019. You’ll deal with the same person every time: no rotating staff, no franchise script.

Barrie has had dogs of his own since he was a child and has a lifelong passion for four-legged friends. That love of animals is at the heart of how he works — patient, practical and genuinely fond of the pets in his care.

“Proper countryside walks, full care and cover, and photos while they’re out so you know how they’re getting on.” — Barrie

Fully trained for the job, with a Canine First Aid Diploma from the Centre of Excellence (awarded with distinction), public liability insurance and an enhanced DBS check — so your dog is in safe, professional hands. Every dog is treated as an individual: energy levels, recall and favourite routes all go in the notes.

He can also do drop-in home visits for cats and other pets — feeding, fresh water, litter or cage care, and a little company while you’re away. Rates are quoted when you message (length of visit and number of pets). Happy to talk through pet visits or a free meet-and-greet for walks.
