Questions
About dog walking
Do you walk big or strong dogs?
Yes. Labs, shepherds, doodles, Danes and strong pullers are all welcome. We’ll talk through handling at the meet-and-greet.
Will my dog be walked with other dogs?
No. Walks are private to your household.
What if it’s raining or very hot?
We still come. In heavy rain or extreme heat the walk is shorter and the indoor play is longer, and we say so in the note.
Can I book the same time every weekday?
Yes. Most walk clients have a standing midday slot. Book it once and it stays on the schedule.
