Dashing Dogs

Dashing Dogs provides professional dog walking and pet care services that can give peace to you and your pets. We know finding a trustworthy and dependable pet care provider can be stressful and nerve-wracking, but with our help we can begin to eliminate these worries. Below are a few benefits for receiving help from a professional dog walker and pet sitter. Please feel free to give us a call or send us an email on our Contact page.

Puppies (under 1 year): - Daily mid-day visits help establish and maintain a housebreaking schedule. Proper house breaking requires a consistent schedule of bathroom breaks for your puppy. Crate trained puppies need to get out every 3 - 4 hours for proper training and socialization. Your dog walker makes daily visits while you are at work. Not only is your puppy's schedule kept consistent, but he/she will also be socialized with someone other than the owner.

Adult Dogs: Adult dogs need regular exercise to ensure good physical and mental health. Loving owners who work long hours can depend on Dashing Dogs to walk their dogs during the week when their time is the most limited. Crated dogs are in particular need of a mid-day break. Over-crating and under exercising can result in a hyperactive, under-socialized dog who is harder to live with and train.

Elderly Dogs: The elderly dog often needs more frequent bathroom breaks than he/she needed as a younger dog. When older dogs have accidents they often become stressed because they have been trained to go outside but just can not hold it anymore. In addition, a frustrated owner may end up confining the older dog. An afternoon visit will give the elderly dog his/her much needed bathroom break. This keeps both dog and owner happy!
