Built on love, backed by experience.
The Cockapoo Crew was born through one dog, and built for the many that came after.
Hi, I’m Rachel, founder of Cockapoo Crew, accidental breed expert, and full-time poo devotee.
This business wasn’t born in a boardroom. It started the day I realised my own dog, Hudson, was coming home anxious and overwhelmed after group walks with a mix of breeds. He was surrounded by noise, energy, and reactivity he couldn’t process, and he shut down.
It broke my heart.
So I pulled him out. Found someone who really understood him. And for the first time, I saw him thrive. That tiny shift changed everything both for him and for me.
Because what started as a decision for my own dog’s wellbeing turned into something so much bigger:
A breed-specific walking service just for Cockapoos, Cavapoos, Doodles and Spaniels because, they just get each other.
What I didn’t expect was how beautifully it would work. The confidence. The calm. The tail-wagging joy of a group that feels like family.
These dogs don’t just tolerate each other, they bond. They belong. They’re a cockerpoo community.
Hudson is now the heart of the crew. He welcomes every new dog like they’re already part of the gang. And he reminds me daily why I built this.
Why it’s different. Why it matters.
I’m now one of the most in-demand dog walkers in my area, with a waiting list and a service that sets the bar. And what makes Cockapoo Crew different is simple:
It’s formed from real insight.
We don’t guess, we know what Cockapoos and Doodle mixes need, because we live and breathe them every day, and that deep understanding means everything is breed perfect.
Built around what works
Every part of the day from group dynamics to walk routes, is designed around what makes these dogs thrive. The result? Calmer walks. Happier dogs.
Wrapped in Five-Star Care
We sweat the small stuff, so you don’t have to. Towel-dried paws, thoughtful intros, and a seamless service that feels as good as it looks.
From carefully curated walk groups to seamless van setups and calm, confident introductions, every detail has been refined to deliver a premium experience for both dogs and their humans.
With training in Canine First Aid and Dog Behaviour (OFQUAL qualified), fully insured and DBS-checked, I’m ready to provide the highest standard of care.
I’m also thrilled to be a Small Business Sunday winner, handpicked by former Dragon’s Den entrepreneur Theo Paphitis!
I’m excited to be handing that elevated standard to others ready to create something truly exceptional in their own communities.
The future is bright.
I believe every dog deserves this kind of care, and every dog lover deserves a job that feels like a joy, not a grind.
That’s why I now offer a franchise model: a ready-to-go business in a box for other passionate, dog-obsessed humans who want to build their own version of the Cockapoo Crew where they live.
Because this isn’t just about dog walking. It’s about wellbeing. Connection. Community. Confidence.
And it all started with one anxious little cockapoo who just needed to feel safe.
cockapoo crew values
We’re not just another dog walking service.
We’re building something bigger, a breed-specific experience that delivers excellence, connection, and care at every level.
You and your dog’s needs are our top priorities. Your pooch is a member of your family, and we will always treat your dog as a member of ours. Once onboard, they are a part of our crew.
We will give them all the love and attention they need when they are with us. Their happiness and care is my priority and here at the Cockapoo Crew we strive to provide a service we would want our own dogs to receive.
Clear and open communication is fundamental to our approach. We actively listen to clients’ needs, provide updates on their dogs’ well-being, with details of their walks with photos, and seek feedback to continually improve our services.
We know how important it is for a dog to have physical and mental stimulation every day. So, we are here to help weekdays, over the weekends, early evenings, bank holidays and school holidays.
We uphold the highest standards of professionalism with clients, fellow dog walkers, and the community.
Our conduct reflects integrity, respect, and ethical practices at all times. We are canine first aid trained and have completed courses in dog behaviour (OFQUAL qualified) fully insured, DBS checked and are verified by Yappily, the ethical, professional pet care directory.
