As a former dog trainer, I consider the walk with our dogs to be one of the most crucial activities we do for our animals, therefore walks should be conducted with confidence, attention to your surroundings, patience, and the ability to correct a dog gently so as to establish what the expectations for behavior are. While walks are definitely a leisurely activity, I do like to keep a brisk pace, so I make sure to tire the pups out sufficiently, but to also satisfy the migration instinct that all dogs are equipped with. I have walked as many as four dogs at a time of all different sizes and strengths and am always vigilant in bringing tools (clicker, treats, air corrector) so I may manage any obstacles or unexpected disturbances that come up.

I have a yellow lab that I walk at least once a day, and we usually walk about a mile or so. If your dog is friendly with other dogs, I can walk both at the same time. However, if your dog would rather walk alone or doesn't like to walk that far, I can definitely accommodate that. I also live like 10 minutes from the Fort Collins dog park if your dog would be interested in that instead. I'm only taking 10 credits at CSU at the moment and have a lot of free time. I just want to spend time with other dogs, too!

Can do anything from leisurely walks to jogs to bike rides! Capable of multiple dogs at once or solo trips for longer more focused walks. I respect and understand each owner and dogs specified needs and am very flexible and willing to do whatever to make you and your dog safe and comfortable!

I love walking dogs! I'm happy to walk one dog or five dogs! Right now the walks will be leisurely but in the future they can be a run if you and your pup want! I will clean up after all walks and ensure pet has water before and after. If you have any special requests I'm happy to accommodate. I typically walk dogs directly from your home but if you prefer a park or open space we can make a plan.

I am a very active person, so I love going on walks with dogs. Long, leisurely walks are the most effective, I find. I love active pups because they're really fun to go on walks with. I can provide solo walks for each dog or go on group walks with multiple dogs.

I would be willing to provide whatever walking style is needed. I can do leisurely or active walks with multiple dogs or one. I mostly have experience with leisurely walks with multiple dogs but I am an active person who can kick it up a notch for an active dog! I can really do anything that you decide your dog needs!

It would depend on the dog as to what type of walk I would take them on. If it was an active dog that was well behaved on a leash I would take the dog for a run. If it was an older dog that walked slower I would go on a leisure walk with lots of breaks for the dog.

Walks will be catered to your dog's needs. I have a very well behaved and polite australian shepherd who can come with us on our walk or not depending on if your dog wants socialization or training or if their behavior is best when alone. I will mostly do leisurely walks, to somewhat active, but cannot do running at this time. I can take your dog around the neighborhood or up a trail in the hills also if you prefer and could pay extra for some gas. Just let me know!

I like to go on a variety of walks. I can go fast or slow and I have a path right by my house. I can take multiple dogs as long as they get along and are well behaved. I love dogs and I think they light up our lives. It's really important to take dogs on walks because they need the exercise and they shouldn't be inside all day, especially in the wintertime.

I love doing things depending on what the animal likes. I love going to the park, hiking, taking the dogs out for a walk, play fetch with them etc. I do solo walls or multiple did at one depending on the dogs. I enjoy being active with the animal and spending add much time as needed for each pet. I also used to work at the Humane Society in Greeley at one point and I really enjoyed working with the different animals and learning how to handle different animals.

Top tips for getting started with a dog walker in Fort Collins

  1. Look for a dog walker who has passed a background check.
  2. Ask a DogVacay dog walker for a free Meet-n-Greet. Take your pet for a short stroll in Fort Collins, letting the dog walker hold the leash. You’ll know quickly if this is the right person for your pet.
  3. Then visit your home with the dog walker, so your pet becomes comfortable with this person in the dog’s territory.
  4. Make plans for letting the DogVacay dog walker into your home. Some people may feel comfortable providing a key. Others keep a key in a combination lockbox. Many people use smart locks and programmable key codes.
  5. Discuss the length and route of the walk in your neighborhood in Fort Collins. Cover what kind of updates you want (such as a “bathroom” log or behavior notes).
  6. Explain what your treat policy is after a walk. Keep treats safely stored, and let the dog walker know where to find them.
  7. Make sure your pet has the right harnesses, collars, leashes and equipment for a safe and fun walk.
