West Derby has the best of both worlds: a historic village heart and, on its doorstep, one of the largest country parks in the city. For a dog, that's about as good as it gets — and Tail Trek Adventures are the local, insured duo to make the most of it. We're Heather and Jake.
We keep things personal and consistent — the same familiar walker, small well-matched groups, and a photo and update after every walk. Real people who love the job, not a faceless app.
Croxteth Country Park is the crown jewel — 500 acres of woodland, meadow and a walled garden around historic Croxteth Hall, with endless trails and rarely a crowd. It's a wonderful spot for a proper off-lead explore where recall allows, and big enough that there's always somewhere new to sniff. Closer in, the old village around the courthouse and church makes a pleasant gentler walk, with the leafy Sandfield Park estate nearby.
We rotate the park's trails to keep things fresh and always match the outing to your dog's fitness and confidence.
Life around the village and Almonds Green is busy, and a dog shouldn't wait all day for a walk. Our group and solo walks, puppy visits and drop-ins fit around work and family, with free collection and drop-off from your door.
Croxteth's woodland gets gloriously muddy after rain, so towels are always on board and your dog comes home clean. In summer we make the most of the shaded trails and the cooler hours, and for nervous dogs the park's quieter corners are perfect for building confidence away from the busier weekend paths.
Everything your dog needs, right here in West Derby.



Tail Trek Adventures is brand new — just Heather & Jake, getting started across South Liverpool & Knowsley. We haven't gathered online reviews yet, so we'll earn your trust the honest way: a free meet & greet, references on request, and a photo update after every single walk.
It's superb — 500 acres of woodland, meadow and trails with room for a proper explore, and quiet enough to suit nervous dogs. It's one of our most-used spots in West Derby.
Where it's safe and your dog's recall is reliable, yes — Croxteth's open areas are ideal. Until we're confident, and you're happy, dogs stay on a long training line so every walk is a safe one.
Yes — we carry full public liability and pet-care insurance, which includes cover for your dog while they're with us. We're happy to show you the paperwork at your free meet & greet.
Just call, WhatsApp or fill in the quick enquiry form. We'll arrange a free, no-obligation meet & greet to say hello, learn your dog's routine and get everything set up.
