My walks differ depending on the age and health of the pet. I enjoy going on runs, but also enjoy leisurely walks if the pet is unable to run for an extended period of time. I prefer walking 1-2 dogs, but I am able to manage up to 4 if required. My goal when it comes to taking a pet for a walk is to ensure that they are well exercised and stimulated which leads to a happier and healthier pet!

I am happy to fit any walk to any dog's style! If your dog is an active fella, we can run, jog, or hike. If your pet prefers the city life, we can stick to a leisurely sidewalk stroll. I prefer to walk dogs individually, to provide them with one-on-one attention and encouragement, but if you think your dog could use a buddy, I am happy to bring my dog along for the ride, too. Just let me know what would best fit your pet's walking needs, and it would be my pleasure to meet those expectations!

I have taken dogs on leisurely walks in their neighborhoods. It has been only one dog at a time as my friends and family each have one dog. These times have been for potty and poop breaks as well as for exercise, sunny, and fresh air for my favorite furry animals!

I am an active person so depending on the dogs' energy level, I am willing to go for an hour long run with them or take a leisurely stroll with a senior pup! Depending on your dogs' needs, I am willing and capable to provide whatever pace walk they will most benefit from. I also walk rain. snow, sun, heat, etc. I will never cancel due to the elements unless you feel that your dog would be uncomfortable!

Active/running or leisure walks for any type of dog. Will take one at a time for both dogs at the same time, whichever is easier to walk. Will walk the dogs around the neighborhood or take them to a park or dog park, whatever the owner decides they would like for their dog.

I can make walking a dog as active or as leisurely as the dog/owner would like. I am an avid runner and am happy to take dogs for a run too. I have been running with my husky for 5 years. My husky is great with other dogs, and loves to walk/run with a pack, but if your pup walks better alone, no problem! I love all speeds in all types of weather!

I will walk dogs with a lease.. Take them to a dog park if ok with owner. Dogs will be supervised at all time and kept safe. Dogs will be able to relax and go at their own pace. Walks can be customized to owners specifications and pets needs. Lease should be provided by the owner and any extra harnesses if needed.

My walks will be personalized to your dogs needs. I have plenty experience walking multiple dogs as well (my preferred max is 2, to ensure I can focus fully on both animals' needs)

For active dogs, a quicker pace (jogging is an option as well) will be implemented, we will focus on moving consistently, not stopping too often to smell the roses, so to speak. We will also work on practicing smart and safe behaviors such as sitting and waiting before crossing roads, waiting for other dogs to pass by calmly, etc.

For senior and slower moving dogs, walks will be more leisurely and cover less distance. I will allow several breaks for the dog(s) to stop and sniff, or take a breather.

All walks will allow for adequate potty time.

The walk I take your dog on will be totally up to you and your dog! Does your dog enjoy a calm, leisurely walk? Or do they love a quicker pace, and/or some running around and a game of fetch thrown in? I'm happy and willing to provide either style. If your dogs get along with each other, then I'm happy to walk them together. If they have very different personalities and/or don't get along, then solo walks are usually the best choice. Regardless of the dog and the type of walk, I'll provide encouragement and affection during our time together.

I love all kinds of walks! From a leisurely stroll to a brisk pace, I can do it all. I'm comfortable walking up to 4 dogs at a time. I'm also a courteous dog walker and always pick up and dispose of waste properly. I'm comfortable and experienced with all kinds of leashes & harnesses.

Top tips for getting started with a dog walker in Madison

  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 Madison, 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 Madison. 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.
