Which is why we offer and can advise you on the best walk times to keep your dog happy and healthy. Hiring a dog walker can be beneficial for both you and your dog. Regular exercise helps maintain a healthy weight and prevents behavioural issues caused by excess energy. New smells, sights and interactions keep your dog angaged and happy. Exposure to people and other dogs can improve their overall well-being as well as reducing anxiety. Regular walks also help with bathroom breaks and maintaining schedule.
Most people have busy schedules... no problem! If you are at work or have other commitments a dog walker ensures your pet gets attention. You don´t have to worry about your dog being home alone too long. A well exercised dog is less likely to chew furniture or bark constantly.
Our dog walking services include:
-Walks planned according to your schedule
-Feeding and changing water once back home
-A walk personalised to what ever your dog needs
-Cuddles and playtime!
-Enrichment activities

Please note: *All training and handling methods used in our services are without the use of fear, force, or pain. This means that we do not use aversive tools such as slip leads, intimidation, threats, tactics that involve fear, or coercion, and work with positive reinforcement only.
We do not walk dogs on slip leads, choke chains, electronic collars or prong collars.
