Getting a dog out and exercised is vital to their health and mental stability.
When we take your dog for a walk they have the ability to sniff and experience the world. We make sure that they come back tired both physically and mentally so you have a well behaved dog. At the same time we do work on leash manners, non-reactivity to dogs people, bicyclists, and cars. All is done with a firm calm confident command and voice. Never a negative reinforcement always a positive reinforcement after a correction, if one is needed.
Dog Walking Services can be booked in the following time frames.
30 min, 45 min, or 60 min.
All walks are GPS tracked so you can see where we traveled to. We do try and very routes with dogs so it doesn’t become mundane or routine for them thus more mental stimulation.
We use your harness & leashes unless we find that they do not provide enough security or control over the dog.
We DO NOT walks dog off leash! Dog’s are never off leash outside of your home (only your secured backyard). Our insurance will not allow this. It is also against City of Mesa Ordinance. It is City of Mesa Ordinance to have the dog on a 6″ leash. Many people like to use retractable leashes and I do see they have a purpose however I will not have full control of your animal if they are 10+feet away from me. I also cannot protect them from other dogs or the wildlife.
My job is to mitigate risk when I have your dog. To keep your dog safe, we always ask other dog owners if they may say “HI” with your permission of course. We also know how to watch your dogs body language and other dog’s body language while we are out for a walk. We will either take your dog off the path and sit and wait or we will cross the street if the walker feels that there could be a problem. Your dog’s health and safety is of the utmost importance.
