The Borough of Kensington & Chelsea is one of the smallest, most densely populated and wealthiest in the UK. Although this borough is one of the smallest, it is packed full of pup friendly parks and they have perfected the art of spoiling their four legged friends.
If it were up to most dog owners, their dogs would never be left behind but sometimes you need to go somewhere without your pup. Luckily, Kensington and Chelsea have a slew of options from dog walkers and kennels make sure your pups needs are met.

Being so dog friendly, it makes sense that Kensington and Chelsea has some fab places to walk a dog, here are just some of our favourite spots for a game of fetch.
If you’re looking for a nice long dog walk, Hyde Park is one of Central London’s biggest open spaces and the biggest of the four Royal Parks. There is plenty of greenery for four legged and two legged friends to explore and enjoy. The Lido Bar and Cafe & Serpentine Bar and Kitchen also have a great selection of snacks available as well as water bowls ready for thirsty post walk pups.
If you’re a dog sitter in Kensington and Chelsea and are looking for a lovely flower filled walk then Kensington Gardens is the place to head to. Be sure not to miss out on the Tiffany & Co Foundation drinking fountain on The Broad Walk.
It’s designed with pooches in mind, as you press for water at the top, the doggy drinking area is also filled below – wagnificent.
While local British pubs are always an option, what sets Kensington and Chelsea apart is their warm acceptance of pups in their white tablecloth establishments.
This five star hotel is considered by many as one of the most luxe London has on offer. Although they are super fancy, they have kept their values in check. They encourage doggy guests and to prove it they have a bunch of pooch friendly perks to help make sure your pets experience is pawtastic. From pup friendly afternoon tea, a grooming service, toys, treats and even a pet concierge this place really is a dog’s dream.
Most would assume that fancy English tea’s are typically pup free. But Ampersand lets you splurge on innovative pastries and finger sandwiches with your pup by your side. While the environment is that of a beautiful English drawing room and the tea some of the best England has on offer, they have managed to keep things cozy.
While the list of dog friendly establishments in Kensington and Chelsea is impressive, the Builders Arms is one of the few that offers dog biscuits and water bowls. Their relaxed vibe also helps you feel at ease that if your pup happens to step out of turn, you don’t need to sneak off in shame.
If you are dog walker in Kensington and Chelsea it is always nice to know where you’re nearest vet is located. Kensington vet care is located just a couple of minutes walk from Notting Hill Gate Station and offers a range of services from health checks to emergency consultations.
Included in your BorrowMyDoggy membership is a 24/7 Vet Line that both owners and borrowers can call. Whilst your pup is with a borrower, they can call the vet line with any questions or concerns and can get advise of what to do. Owners are also able to ask them for any advice they need.
