In today’s busy world, many dog owners have difficulty finding the time to give their best friend the walk he or she needs. That’s why professional dog walking is quickly gaining popularity across the country. Scheduled dog walks on a regular basis gives you the peace of mind that your best friend gets what he deserves every day.

The benefits of a regular walking routine include exercise (mind and body), socialization, and companionship. Even if your dog has a yard to “take care of business” in, a walk outside their own territory is like therapy for dogs…they need to smell other scents, see other sights, and hear the sounds in the environment. Your dogs will get the exercise they need and will come back
relaxed and refreshed. In addition to helping dogs stay in physical shape, daily walks will improve their mood, and will help discourage behavior problems and indoor accidents. No need to worry and race home from work! You come home to a content dog.
We offer private walks for dogs that need or want individualized attention, or don’t do well in a group. Individual walks are especially nice for senior dogs, dogs recovering from illness or injury, or dogs who just aren't socialized.(they may be fearful, aggressive or just not especially friendly) If they are consistently non-aggressive with humans, we'll take them on private walks in your neighborhood, or areas less likely to be pet populated.
Dogs are pack animals and most thrive on connecting with other dogs. If your dog needs more social activity with other dogs this is perfect for them! It’s so important to your dog's sense of well-being to be able to get out in the open air each day and experience the joys of life, sniffing, running, barking and exploring. We offer group walks where your dog will enjoy a full hour of activity, hiking on a variety of Asheville’s trails with a small group of other dogs. We will
pick them up at your home and bring them for a romp through the trails with other friendly dogs. We always carry plenty of drinking water, and towels for clean-ups when it rains. Then, when we drop them back off at your home, we’ll make sure their water bowl is full, and we can feed them or give them a treat, or their favorite toy, if you’d like.
We offer a variety of specialty walks. These walks are designed to meet the needs of pet owners who have special considerations Specialty groups will form as interests in these groups grow.
We understand the special needs and behaviors of toy and small dogs. Our priority is to provide the safe environment needed to accommodate their requirements. This could mean a private walk or outing, or a small group walk with other dogs of similar size and temperament. All dogs love to play, but small dogs usually find themselves at a disadvantage when playing with dogs much bigger than they are. This group makes it possible for your small dog to romp and play with other dogs. This makes for a more well-rounded, happier dog.
Having not yet been socialized, puppies are a handful. With busy work schedules, it can be difficult for owners to meet their needs. Visits include: feeding, loving and walking the puppy while reinforcing the basic commands that you go over with us. Visits may also include cleaning up any messes made in your absence.
We will gently, patiently and lovingly accommodate your senior or special needs dog.
We will come visit your cats or kitties, give them TLC, play with them, feed them, talk to them, scoop their litter box, administer medications, brush them, and give them pampering and quality care.
You might be away at work for the day, weekend or going away for a few days or longer. You can leave your pets at home and let us pamper them, so there is minimal disruption to their daily routine. Our visits combine activity and companionship, thus reducing indoor accidents and destructive behavior due to boredom. We can visit your pets as many times a day as you’d like. During our visit, we will provide the individualized regimen of service that we have established with you at the outset. They are fed and walked according to your instructions. We will play with them and love them, and brush them too. We will accommodate special needs, diets, and medications. We can even put the radio or TV on to your pet's favorite station! We also follow strict cleanliness standards. Pet food and water dishes are washed daily or as needed, litter boxes are cleaned daily or more often if needed, floors are swept of loose pet food and litter, and we will do our best to clean up after all pet messes. At your request, we will be happy to provide you with free email updates to let you know how your pet’s day went.
