FAQ
1. How will I now if my dog has been walked?
We use an online app called Time to Pet for our scheduling needs. When a walker comes to pick up your pet they will check in on pick up and check out when finished the walk. They will send an email to you that includes feedback and a photo in real time.
2. How do you determine if a dog is suitable for group outings?
It is important to get an impartial assessment. During our initial visit, we ask a lot of questions about your dog’s behaviour and history. We are looking for behaviours that will tell us how easily your dog may learn and adjust to new situations. No dog is perfect, and most dogs benefit greatly from socialization and outings.
3. Do you take dogs that are in heat, unspayed, Or unneutered?
In the interest of safety, male dogs over 1 yr of age must be neutered. We accept unspayed female dogs provided they are not in heat. If you have no intention of neutering your dog after 1 yr of age we will have to discuss other alternatives. For female dogs in heat we will schedule you in for private walks if available.
4. What are the pickup and return arrangements?
Pickups and returns depend on the schedule we arrange in our initial visit. Because we are fully bonded and insured, we can pick up and return each dog whether or not the owner is home. Please allow an hour’s leeway in timing to account for unforeseen weather, broken elevators or just having too much fun with his friends.
5. Is there a minimum number of outings required?
Yes, we ask for at least 2 walks a week. The day or time can vary; however, a more consistent schedule is better for the dog.
6. Do you walk dogs in extreme heat or cold?
We walk your dogs no matter what. Your dog still needs to relieve himself, even if it’s a quick outing.
7. Does my dog need to be licensed and vaccinated?
Yes, all dogs must be licensed with the City of Toronto and vaccinated.
8. Do you accept dogs with aggression or behaviour issues?
If a dog has issues, he or she will have trouble fitting into a group walk. While we don’t accept a dog with aggression or behaviour problems for group walks, we can recommend other services who walk dogs privately. And if you like, our services include training, or we can refer you to other trainers.
