BENEFITS OF HIRING A DOG WALKER 🦮
Hiring a dog walker can have several benefits that you may have never considered. For starters, it takes the pressure off your busy schedule/day. If you have a full-time job, then you may have found yourself running home for lunch to let your dog out.
Whilst some dogs do great with crate training, many still require a wee break around the halfway point of your workday. This leaves many owners with two choices, run home for lunch if possible, or be prepared to clean up when they get home.
A dog walker can help alleviate these issues, giving you peace of mind when you're away from home.
🐶 SOCIAL - Walking not only gets your dog the exercise they need, but it also stimulates their senses. Your dog gets to see, smell, feel, and hear all types of new and interesting things when out for a walk. This stimulation can be meeting other people or animals, which can be an excellent way to encourage proper socialization for your pup. As humans, we often take for granted these brief encounters and stimulation, and we can easily forget that these are frequently the highlights of our pet’s day.
🐶 BEHAVIOUR - Simply put, a tired dog is a good dog! Regular walking helps to release excess energy in your pup, resulting in calmer behaviour at home. With frequent, lengthy walks, your dog will be less inclined to bark, chew, bite, use the bathroom indoors, etc.
🐶 PEACE OF MIND - A dog walker gives you the peace of mind that your dog is well taken care of during the day, and you don’t have to worry as much if you need to stay late for work, or if your dog doesn’t completely “finish” when you take them out in the morning. Knowing that your dog will get quality time outdoors during the day also helps relieve any guilt/stress, from being locked up alone, often for 8 or more hours every day.
🐶 TIME - Consistent lengthy walks can be difficult to fit into our day. We often wake up extra early, head home for lunch, and delay making dinner for our families in an effort to make sure our dogs get the care they need. With a regular dog walker, your dog still gets all of the exercise and attention they deserve while you get back a great deal of time.
