Your Schedule
This helps us recommend the right plan for your lifestyle.

A dedicated team walks your dog 4-5 days a week at a reserved time. Best for routine, training, and your dog's wellbeing.
Monthly plans starting at ~$28/day
Not yet, I just need walks here and there
Book individual walks whenever you need one. No monthly commitment. Great for trying us out first.
Flex Walks starting at $35/walk
No problem. We'll walk you through the options.
Our Recommendation For You
Based on what you told us, we think your dog would benefit from walks that go beyond just exercise. BetteR+ walks integrate positive reinforcement training, enrichment games, and dedicated sniff time into every outing. Your dog comes home calmer, more confident, and better behaved over time.
Starting at ~$32/day for 15-minute sessions, up to ~$88/day for a full hour. Billed monthly.
Almost there
Pick what fits your dog's energy level. You can always adjust later.
15 minutes
Quick essentials. Great for smaller or lower-energy dogs.
$32/day
30 minutes Most Popular
A solid outing with time for everything.
$48/day
45 minutes
Extended outing. More time for decompression and sniffing.
$68/day
60 minutes
The ultimate walk. Full hour of exercise, training, and enrichment.
$88/day
Not sure yet
We'll figure out the best fit on your intake call.
Options for reactive dogs
Because your dog is reactive to other dogs, they need a consistent, dedicated team. Here are your options:
Potty Breaks (Membership)
Quick 10-15 minute bathroom breaks with your dedicated team. Starting at $28/walk, billed monthly.
Dog Training
Work with a trainer to address your dog's reactivity through dedicated sessions.
No problem
These are straightforward walks without the training integration.
Good Dog Walks
20-minute on-leash walks, 5 days a week. Same dedicated team, consistent schedule. Starting at $38/walk, billed monthly.
Potty Breaks
Quick 10-15 minute bathroom breaks and check-ins. Starting at $28/walk, billed monthly.
Not ready for a monthly plan?
Flex Walks
Book individual walks whenever you need them. No membership, no commitment. Starting at $35/walk.
Training
Pick what sounds right for you. We'll recommend the right format (day training, private, or group) on your intake call.
Puppy Training
Socialization, house manners, and foundational skills for dogs under 6 months.
Basic Obedience
Sit, Loose Leash Walking, Leave It, Basic Recall, and more.
Intermediate / Advanced
Building on the basics with distance, duration, and distraction work in real-world settings.
Trick Training
Fun, confidence-building tricks that deepen your bond and keep learning rewarding.
Behavioral Training
Working directly with underlying challenges like fear, aggression, or reactivity using proven R+ methods.

Last step
We'll use this to prepare for your intake call.
Because Flex Walks may be handled by any available team member rather than a dedicated walker, we need to confirm the following:
Has your dog ever bitten a person or another dog?
For dogs who are reactive toward people, we aren't currently able to provide safe service. We'd rather be honest now than put your dog or our team in a difficult situation.
We're happy to refer you to a specialist who can help. Leave your info and we'll send over some recommendations.
All dogs walk on the same plan. Additional dog pricing confirmed on your intake call.
Just a few more details to complete your application
