A leisure solo (unless dogs from the same family) 30 minute walk/potty break based on weather and dog's ability. We can run/jog if needed as well! Walks will be on the path as described by owner. Dog must be obedient on the leash. I don't walk dogs that pull as the risk of them running away is very high. I want to ensure safety of your dog at all times.
Time of day preferred is when it is bright/light out.

How I usually walk dogs is by taking them alone (only groups if they live together) so that I can spend quality time with each dog. If a park is nearby, I would walk him/her to the park and spend some time there. If the owner recommends playing with other dogs, walking or going to around the walking trails is positive for our furry friends.

Walks with me can be leisurely or active. I will run/walk/jog, as needed. I prefer solo walks (unless dogs know each other). Walks can be long or short walks, depending on your dog's needs. I am very flexible with needs of walks. I will not have equipment or supplies, but am willing to carry any supplies/treats needed to make it the most pleasurable walk.

I usually take the dogs walking around the neighborhood. If they are pet friendly and/ or kid friendly, I can take them to dog parks or places that allow dogs. If the dog is active, then I usually jog or run with them. The fur babies love to explore; therefor, I can take them places that I know they will enjoy. I will never leave them unattended. They will always be in my hands.

Will and I love our two fur babies and we would love to care for yours! I grew up raising dogs from new born to elderly. I absolutely LOVE all animals! While our apartment is small, one of the best features is the park right behind us. There are many dogs there and we take our own out there at least once a day. There is also a smaller park within the complex if your dog is not as social (it has less traffic). We try to walk the bayou everyday, so your dog will get plenty of exercise! Since we work opposite schedules most days, your dog will not be left alone for any long periods of time as either my husband or I will almost always be there, and they always have the company of our dogs! We have two dogs of our own that get along with pretty much everybody and dog they meet. We can administer any medications needed. And, for elderly dogs with joint or bone problems, we can always take the ramps in the garage to get upstairs so they don't have to struggle. We would be thrilled to host your fur baby!

Your dogs will be taken on leisurely walks through the neighborhood and even to the closest park if you would like. I will always bring water with me and there will be more for those hot summer days and the more active days so your pup will remain properly hydrated. They will be walked accordingly to how many dogs are in your home, whether that's only one dog or multiple to ensure they have a pleasant experience.

I am able to walk multiple dogs at once. I typically walk my dog, Bam Bam, with me. I want all dogs of size and energy level. If there is a dog park near I will let the dog play at the dog park. If your dog does not play well with dogs I can walk solo with your pup. I always notify the owner when I arrive and leave the home for the walk and I also take photos during the walk.

The walks will be enjoyable. I live near the heights blvd, very beautiful trail to walk and enjoy the outdoors. I would make the experience fantastic and as comfortable for your pet. I would go by the owner's preference if he his or her dog feels more comfortable walking solo, or with other dogs. My clients can reach me at any time at my phone number, I can text updates, send pictures and keep them inform.

Top tips for getting started with a dog walker in Houston

  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 Houston, 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 Houston. 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.
