Dog walking service

At Luna’s Legacy, we make sure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care it deserves. With small groups, safe walks, and personal guidance, we provide a reliable solution when you don’t have the time or opportunity to walk your dog yourself.

Whether it’s a busy workday, illness, or other commitments – we are here for you.

  • You have a dog but don’t always have the time or opportunity to walk them
  • You have a busy job
  • You are ill
  • You have limited mobility but still want your dog to get enough exercise
  • And probably many more reasons that we cannot list here

  • Small groups, ensuring control and personal attention
  • New dogs are equipped with trackers (with the goal of eventually having one for every dog)
  • Space available for young puppies (max. 1 per walk) and senior dogs
  • Each walk lasts approximately 1 hour
  • Both vaccination records and titer reports are accepted
  • Dogs are safely transported in individual crates during car rides

Our way of working

Of course, you want to know who you are entrusting your beloved dog (and your house key) to—and we would love to meet you and your dog in their own environment. That’s why we arrange an initial introduction and intake meeting at your home.

During this meeting, we get to know your dog and your wishes. You can tell us more about your dog’s character and any specific needs or details.

We usually offer two group walks per day:

  • Round 1 – Morning walk: Pick-up between 08:30 and 09:30
    Return from around 10:30

  • Round 2 – Afternoon walk: Pick-up between 10:30 and 13:30
    Return from around 13:30

Extra care for your dog

Your dog may be away from home a bit longer due to pick-up routes. The route also determines whether your dog joins the first or second walk, and this may vary each time.

All dogs wear a collar with a tag including our name and phone number. We provide our own leashes—you only need to hand over your dog.

We do not use balls or sticks during group walks, as these can cause tension or be unsafe. Our focus is on a calm, enjoyable one-hour walk in nature.

Since we don’t live in a particularly dry climate, we always have towels in the car to clean off dirt and moisture, as well as water if the dogs are thirsty. We also bring treats to make the walk home even more enjoyable (and to ensure they’re happy to join us again next time).

In summer, we choose areas with plenty of water. If temperatures rise above 25°C for several days, we adjust the schedule and keep the walks shorter to ensure the dogs’ safety.

We are trained in first aid and always carry a first aid kit in the van, as well as a smaller kit during walks. In the van, all dogs are safely transported in individual crates (see photos on the website).

Name

Our team

Mona Lispet-Leijtens

Owner

My name is Mona Lispet-Leijtens. I have been passionate about animals—especially dogs—my entire life. When I moved to Delft in 2002, my husband and I decided to get a dog.

That dog became Luna, a Weimaraner and a passionate hunting dog with whom we successfully bred two litters. Sadly, she has since passed away. At the moment, we have two female dogs at home: Pretty, a daughter of Luna, and Jodie, her granddaughter. We have bred one litter with Pretty and hope to do the same with Jodie in the near future.

I am actively involved in obedience training and hunting training. Together with my husband and our own dogs, I also participate in hunting competitions and practical hunts.

To deepen my knowledge of dogs, I completed several courses, including a cynological education at O&O. I am a certified and accredited cynological instructor and currently teach at KC Delft and the hunting dog school Hubertus.

I have also completed Kynological Knowledge 1 and 2, which focus on canine behavior and health. In addition, I aim to further specialize in canine behavior. I feel very fortunate to have turned my passion into my profession. Since January 2014, I have been the proud owner of Luna’s Legacy Dog Walking Service. Over time, the business has grown with a franchise partner and two volunteers—something both the dogs and I are very happy about.

Christa van Zijl

Franchise Partner

For over 25 years, my great passion has been dogs and hunting training. Together with my Flatcoat Finn, I spend a lot of time outdoors, often engaged in hunting training.

I met Mona through KC Delft and joined her on a few walks. When, at the beginning of 2018, it became clear that a franchise opportunity was possible for me, I decided to leave my office job and pursue my dream career.

We are also an accredited internship company and regularly host interns who complete part of their practical training with us.

Of course, we teach them to handle your beloved dog with the same care and attention that we provide ourselves. During walks, they provide a few extra eyes and hands, which is always a great help.
