I prefer afternoon around 3-4 PM after my school.

Solo or Multiple, it depends on dogs' character. If we can get a excellent contact (with your pet), I can help them to socialize. But first, I need to spend time with them and should know them.

Thanks

I really enjoy walking in general, but walking dogs just makes my walk so much better! I really enjoy going to parks and I know dogs do as well. I'm comfortable with walking multiple dogs at once or solo, leisurely and actively. I am looking forward to meeting your dog!

My walks will depend on the dog!

I don't mind going for small strolls around the block, but I also don't mind being more active with dogs who just love the outdoors!

I do prefer walking 1 dog at a time, that way that dog receives all my attention and I can cater the walk to them and their needs.

Will take dogs on long walks giving them ample time for Number 1/2. If the dogs are larger or have more energy I can go on jogs with them to let them run. If the dogs are smaller I will provide more leisurely strolls but definitely allow them the freedom they need to let out their energy. I always keep the dogs leashed at all times, unless there happens to be a gated leash-free dog park with zero other dogs present, at which time (based on your pre-approved consent) I will let them run free for a bit before leashing and returning home.

I live quite close to a dog park that has sections for small dogs and big dogs that I can walk the dogs to for extra exercise. My walks are long and leisurely and depending on the temperament of the dog I can accommodate a solo walk or multiple with my friendly pug.

Depending on the dog and/or dogs I would be walking I would cater my walk to what the owner preferred. I enjoyed leisurely, active and multiple dog walks. I usually enjoy taking dogs to dog parks where they can interact with other dogs and play.

I enjoy solo dog walks the best where I can give my full attention to the dog that I am spending my time with to ensure they are happy!

I am very flexible! I am happy to take one or two dogs on walks suited to their needs. I lead an active lifestyle and if your dog likes to run, I am happy to run with it! Likewise, I can take a slower pace when appropriate (ex. older or disabled dogs). I like to keep a fairly short leash, especially in the city, but I am can provide long walks for dogs that need lots of exercise!

I'll walk your dogs through your neighbourhood at a leisurely pace, but I might choose to run every now and then if your dogs are up for it. If there's a park nearby, I'll take your dogs there and play with them and might let them run around (if you approve).

I am an active walker. I love spending time outdoors and would love to have a furry friend to accompany me. I prefer to walk one-two dogs. I live near a few pet friendly parks and by the downtown waterfront, which is great for walking. I have experience walking both easy and more aggressive walkers.

Top tips for getting started with a dog walker in Toronto

  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 Toronto, 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 Toronto. 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.
