We offer a variety of services to care for your dog(s), including dog walking, house sitting, administering medication and taxi service.

All of our services include weekly text messages or journal updates of your loved one’s time with walkies. We also include video blogs of their walks and playtime, so you can see they are really being cared for while you are away. Also, if you like we can grab your mail, water your plants, and feed or do medication administration at no extra cost to you.

Our service area includes most Santa Cruz and Capitola communities. (If you live in Aptos or Soquel, ask about our scheduled state park hikes.)

We schedule dog walks and pet visits within a two-hour time frame.

Some services below are priced for 1 to 2 hours. We provide that range because we never want to cut into your loved one’s time. We drive clean, air-conditioned vehicles to various dog-friendly locations. No matter what, you can be assured that your loved one will receive at least one hour — if not more — of undivided love and attention.

Pet care requirements

For dog walking services, please note that your dog should have current vaccinations for BHLPP, Bortadella, and Rabies. If your dog does not have these current vaccines, we request that you sign a waiver explaining your reasons for this. We can accept dog walking reservations for individual walks if vaccinations are not current, but regret that we cannot do this for group walks.

Your dog must wear a proper ID tag and possess a secured collar or harness for walking. If your dog will be walked with a group, your dog must have protection from fleas ticks and heartworm.

We cannot walk dogs who are a threat to people or other dogs.

We realize that some of the more popular meds  for flee and tick prevention are toxic for some animals. Here is a link with some helpful information on natural remedy’s for flees and ticks

This is ideal for older doggies who value a belly rub and some yummy treats just as much as much as a long walk.
