Jan 6, 2023 - Dog Walker in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
First and foremost the love you get from the dogs is unparalleled to anything else int he world. The clients are super nice too and you get to form a bond with them. The staff are very responsive and communicative, and you are always handled with professionalism and courtesy. You also get a raise every few months
Cons
It can be stressful sometimes since you really need to adhere to your schedule since they don't tolerate call outs (which I do get honestly)

Continue reading - Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Kind office staff , Most if not all very kind clients, wonderful dogs , pay raise after certain amount of walks, get to be outside, can pick the walks that work for you and pass along those that dont
Cons
have to be out in all kinds of weather unless client cancels
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Meeting amazing dogs and clients
Cons
It takes time to get a raise and depending how many dogs you walk over time.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
The dogs are pretty cute. That’s about it.
Cons
Ultimately, the pay is not worth the work AT ALL. You’ll be working long days, walking long distances between clients? And making horrible money. Plus, you’ll be expected to pay for transportation to each walk — which you won’t be compensated for.
Continue readingAs explained to you again and again, it's up to you to decide what schedule you decide to do, which walks you decide to take on, and on what hours. You were on the one hand desperate to take on more clients right as you started, and so weren't patient enough to wait for a route that made sense for you. We explained again and again how that route isn't good for you, but you insisted, then you were of course disappointed.
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
4 good years with company
Jan 3, 2022 - Anonymous Employee in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Opportunity for raises. I mean working with dogs is a pro in itself.
Cons
Harsh weather sometimes but that’s part of the job. Also I didn’t like walking ppls dogs while they’re home (& able bodied). Not the company’s fault but yeah
