Hour-long, off-leash, group dog walks - Dog Walkers - Walnut Creek, CA
We pick up dogs from their homes, bring them in groups of 6 to the trail and hike for an hour, off-leash. Then we drop them off at home.
We’re insured and bonded and our employees are experienced doing this kind of work. We put safety above all else. We also document everything with photos, notes, and even GPS tracking so you can see exactly where we hike.
We’ve been operating since 2013 and are small enough so that we can be hands-on, but large enough do we can be flexible with any hiccups in the schedule.
The owner graduated from the Exotic Animal Training and Management program at Moorpark College and has training education and experience with all manner of animals.

Be deliberate. They’re paying attention so if you give them attention when they act badly, you’re reinforcing it. Ignore them. Let them calm down. Reward them for good behavior.
