Sherrie M. says, " Jessica at Pack In Harmony was the exact trainer we needed for our 17 month old Aussie and our 11 year old Aussie. I reached out to Jessica after becoming so frustrated and embarrassed by my dogs behavior. Could not walk them together or have company over without the younger one going crazy. I love Cesar Milan’s philosophy and Jessica was the only trainer I contacted. She replied immediately and we had our first session within the week. She gave me the tools I needed to be the best pack leader both dogs needed. And the results were immediate! Now after 3 sessions I can walk both dogs (3 miles today), meet and greet other dogs, have calm dogs even when the doorbell rings or someone knocks on the door and enjoy friends and family with calm submissive dogs. We can take them out to our favorite dog friendly stores and restaurants! I am eternally grateful for Jessica, her kindness and her guidance. My life (and my dogs lives) are once again in harmony."

Your Dog Walking questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much do dog walkers charge?

Dog walkers charge $10 to $35 per walk or $30 to $60 per hour, depending on your location, number of dogs, and the number of walks you schedule. Some dog walkers charge 50% more if you have two dogs, but you may find one that offers discounted weekly or monthly rates for pre-scheduling ongoing walking services. 

  • Holidays typically add $5 to $10 extra per walk
  • Many dog walkers also offer a $5 to $10 discount if they can walk your dog with other dogs.

Do you tip dog walkers?

While most dog walkers do not expect a tip, tipping 15% to 20% is a good rule of thumb to show your appreciation for their good service or if your dog needs special care or handling. Leaving a positive online review also shows appreciation while helping them build their business. 

What does a dog walker do?

A dog walker walks your dog for a scheduled amount of time, typically on a pre-determined route, to ensure they get sufficient exercise and can go to the bathroom while you are away. Dog walkers dispose of any waste from the walk, make sure your dog is safe and hydrated, and may also feed them upon request.

Most dogs do well with one 20- to 30-minute walk per day. Puppies and more active dogs typically need two or three walks per day and may need longer walks.

How do I choose the best dog walker near me?

When searching for a dog walker, be sure to:

  • Choose an experienced, insured dog walker who has a business license.
  • Look for members of professional organizations, such as the National association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS), Professional United Pet Sitters (P.U.P.S.), or the Association of Pet Sitting Excellence (APSE).
  • Check their reviews on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Ask for and check their references.
  • Arrange a meetup before the first walk to make sure he or she is a good fit for both you and your dog.

What questions should I ask when hiring a dog walker?

Ask the following questions to ensure you find the best dog walker near you:

  • What experience do you have?
  • Do you belong to any professional organizations?
  • Can we schedule a meet and greet beforehand?
  • What is included in your standard rate?
  • What is the rate if I have more than one dog?
  • Do you charge extra for specific breeds?
  • Do you offer any discounts or package deals?
  • How and when do I pay for your service?
  • Do you offer behavior training?
  • Are you trained in pet CPR?
  • What is your protocol if there is an emergency, and my dog needs immediate medical help?
  • How do I get in touch with you?
  • Do you update me after each walk?

Reviews for Aurora dog walking services

Recent success stories from people in the Aurora area.
Cristi E.
Jeff helped us out when I was out of town a lot by taking Sunny on long walks with other dogs. She loves being social and the exercise keeps her from getting into mischief at home. He even taught her how to walk like a civilized dog on a leash! He would do a separate, slower paced walk with our blind dog FredE. My dogs get so much more from his visits than they do a doggie day care.

Jessica has been amazing in training both myself and my little Toy Aussie puppy during the trying times of a pandemic. Every session together was super interesting. She has a wealth of knowledge around dog psychology and has such an amazing calm demeanor. Jessica imparts so much greatinformation. and gives great homework. I enjoyed every session with her and my pup has massively grown in confidence and has such joy in learning. I highly recommend Pack in Harmony Training.

This particular dog is slow to warm up to most people, she took to Kasey right away. Kasey is very aware and respectful of a dog's needs and temperament; training is at the dog's pace. I'm so glad I chose Kasey, and they continue to work together.
