Hi, I’m Djamila - but most people call me Dj.

I’m the human behind Hang-Ten Hounds: a Newquay-based dog walking and pet sitting service for dogs who need adventure, structure and genuine care.

I keep things personal, calm and safety-led - from carefully matching dogs in groups to choosing routes around weather, tides, temperament and energy levels.

And yep, the old Land Rover is part of the adventure too.

Now plan my dog's adventure!

Meet Us

  • Djamila (me!)

    CHIEF HOUND-HERDER

    I collect your dogs from home, take them on safe, stimulating adventures then bring them home happy, tired and content.

  • Cheryl (Born To Run)

    MENTOR

    I find dog behaviour and psychology fascinating and take my personal development pretty seriously; mentored weekly by the well-known Cheryl (Born To Run).

  • "If I could give Hang Ten Hounds ten stars, I would in a heartbeat. I’ve been through numerous dog walkers over the years, and while many were perfectly fine, none of them compare to DJ."

  • "Just want to say a big pawsome thankyou for looking after my boy Zealand! Those looking for honest, friendly, reliable dog walker with no hidden prices and paws on the ground adventures, then i totally recommend. My dog had a fear of alsations and dj has managed to provide reassurance and encouragement and now hes out in the pack and overcome hes fears. Amazing!! "

  • "Djamila is absolutely incredible. She looked after our staffy George (who doesn’t always listen) overnight for a week and did a fantastic job. Couldn’t be happier with the service and will recommend to everyone!"

  • "A change in working patterns meant we needed to find our Labrador Beau an adventure buddy twice a week. We were a little apprehensive as Beau can be really nervous, but we needn’t have worried as Dj has created the most special bond with Beau in just one week, and it's paid off massively. Thank you so much Dj"
