What does a hike entail?

We take small groups of dogs into the local woods and walk off leash for an hour or more, depending on what service your dog is signed up for. Throughout each hike we practice recall, proper trail etiquette and supervise socialization.

Do you provide pick up and drop off?

Yes!

What is your service area?

We service all of Newton for our off leash hikes.

Where do you take the dogs?

We hike throughout Newton, Weston, Framingham, and Medfield.

How do you determine if a dog can join hikes?

We screen all dogs before they can join hikes. This process includes collecting information about their history, an evaluation, and a trial period.

I’ve never taken my dog off leash before, could they join the hikes?

Maybe? As long as your dog gets along with other dogs, we can assess what training is needed! Reach out for information about what that process looks like.

How old does my puppy need to be in order to join hikes?

Your puppy is welcome as soon as they’ve had all their vaccinations.

Is it the same walker and group of dogs each day?

Not necessarily, we are a small company so you will definitely get to know us. We like to switch things up to keep things fun for the dogs and for us!

Do you hike in all weather?

Yes! Rain, shine or snow, the dogs still need to go! The only time we close due to weather is if driving conditions are unsafe. We will always give as much advance notice as possible in these instances.

Are you closed on holidays?

Yes! We are closed on New Years Day, Marathon Monday, Memorial Day, Independence day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

How do you accept payment?

We use a software program which will automatically bill your credit card every Monday for the previous week's services.

Are you insured and bonded?

Yes, we are fully insured and bonded by Pet Sitters International.
