Three Steps to Your Dog's First Walk

Call Us for a Free Consultation

Call (301) 265-3647 to speak with us directly. We will ask about:

•Your dog's breed, age, and energy level
•Any behavioral considerations (reactivity, anxiety, medical needs)
•Your work schedule and preferred walking times
•Your neighborhood and home access logistics
•Which walk plan seems like the best fit

This call is free and there is no obligation. We want to make sure we are the right fit before you commit.

Schedule a Meet and Greet

We schedule a visit to your home so your assigned walker can meet your dog in their own environment. During the meet and greet:

•Your walker meets your dog and begins building rapport
•We review home access, leash/harness preferences, and routines
•We discuss the best walking routes near your home
•You can ask questions and see our reporting platform
•We finalize your walking schedule and walk plan

Walks Begin

Your walker starts coming on the schedule you set. After every visit you receive:

•GPS map of the walking route
•Timestamped arrival and departure
•Photos and videos of your dog on the walk
•Written summary of the visit

You also receive three complimentary walks as a welcome credit on your first invoice.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The initial phone consultation is free and there is no obligation. We want to understand your dog's needs and make sure our service is a good fit before you commit to anything. Many people call just to ask questions — that is completely fine.

Most clients start within a few days of the meet and greet. Once we confirm your dog's needs, assign a walker, and set up your scheduling profile, walks can begin as soon as the next business day.

It rarely happens, but if your dog does not connect with their assigned walker, we will reassign a different team member. The meet and greet is designed to catch compatibility issues before walks begin. We also offer a money-back guarantee during your first four weeks.

Most clients provide a spare key, garage code, or smart lock access. We can also accommodate lockboxes. Your walker secures your home after every visit, and post-visit reports include timestamps confirming arrival and departure.

Yes. You can adjust your schedule, change walk duration, add or remove days, and pause service at any time through our scheduling platform. There are no long-term contracts or penalties for changes.
