Before booking, I would like to set up a meet and greet if possible. That way, the pets can meet me in the company of someone they trust and we can discuss various logistics. Extended travel includes an additional fee to compensate for gas usage.
After the meet and greet, I will send a google form to fill out details of your pet’s care so there is a resource to refer back to, if necessary. Alternatively, you can provide printed instructions.

Pricing per visit
Walks are a great way to get exercise and burn off extra energy. Not only is working their muscles beneficial, but so is working out their noses!
Walks are available for multi-dog households, with additional fees depending on the size, breed, and/or behavioral concerns. I do not do pack walks with dogs from different households for safety reasons.
Visits are priced by their approximate length to fit the needs of each household. Two pets are included at each price, additional fee may apply for additional pets.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Short: 10 – 15 Minutes Good for senior dogs or small dogs (they have little legs). | $15 |
| Standard: approx. 30 min. Typically a walk through your neighborhood. Typically ranges from 1 to 1.5 miles, though actual distance varies based on the dog’s pace. | $25 |
| Extended: approx. 45 min. Great for dogs that need a little extra exercise or attention. | $35 |
| Extra Extended: approx. 60 min. Great for dogs that need even more exercise and attention. May also be required for multi-pet households. | $45 |
| Private Adventure Hike Available for up to two dogs, I pick them up and drive to a nearby dog-friendly trail for a hike of 60 minutes and we get pictures along the way! | $55 |
| Additional Pets (after 2) | +$5 dog |
| Special Services Additional fees may be included for special services, which may include a special handling charge for dogs with unique behavioral needs and/or breed considerations. | Varies |
| Holiday Rates Applies to visits that land on the list below. | +20% to visits |

Please note that scheduled times may have slight variation by about 15 minutes. If there is any more than that, I will let you know ahead of time. This is due to scheduling limitations and the need to travel between bookings, which can vary by distance. There is also the possibility of delays, such as a mess to clean or a required conversation with a pet owner or unexpected traffic.
Testimonials
Giuseppe did a great job with all of the pets. The older dogs need extra care, and he was happy to help. Plus, the photos were much appreciated and helped us relax while we were away. We looked forward to the photos every day!

Giuseppe was a wonderful walker and very accommodating during the walk. Sophie had a wonderful time and I was happy she was in confident hands! I would absolutely use him again.
Katherine, via Rover.
Maya loves when her friend Giuseppe comes to take her for a walk. He’s great with her. He has the experience to handle my enthusiastic, energetic dog and was truly a great help while I was recovering from my knee surgery.
