Get a trusted dog walker, rain or shine.
-
Unlike the majority of pet care companies and apps, we do not use independent contractors. Our employees are insured, bonded, and have worker's compensation, disability benefits, and paid leave. This is great for them, and for you! Our walkers are carefully selected, background checked, and extensively trained in dog handling and cat care.
-
If you set a regular schedule, you will have a regular walker and a backup walker in the event your regular walker is sick. We think it's super important for dogs to have regularity!
-
Dogs love to socialize! We walk small groups of three or less depending on your dog's individual needs. We always take care to match dogs with similar temperaments. We will work closely with you to provide services that meet your dog's needs. We provide private walks for a small extra fee.

Something that sets us apart from other services - we are NUTS about safety! We use backup gear on all dogs to meet our high safety standards. We are fully insured and bonded by Pet Sitters Associates.
