Our Dog Walk­ing Philosophy

At NYC Dog­gies we all work as dog walk­ers because we love dogs, period. Our approach to dog walk­ing is sim­ple – exer­cise and social­iza­tion are inte­gral com­po­nents to a healthy, bal­anced, happy life, and it is our job to give your pup her daily dose, mak­ing it the best expe­ri­ence pos­si­ble. We pro­vide our dogs with a safe envi­ron­ment and as much exer­cise, play, and love as we can. We also believe that a strong bond between dog walker and dog is of the utmost impor­tance, and our dog walk­ing busi­ness is designed to cul­ti­vate and sus­tain those relationships.By keep­ing our NYC dog walk­ing ser­vice small and local, we can work as a tight-knit team with lit­tle turnover, pro­vid­ing indi­vid­u­al­ized care to each client. Our team mem­bers are care­fully selected for their expe­ri­ence and reli­a­bil­ity, and they are rig­or­ously trained by Ovidiu. Our dogs have one pri­mary dog walker, but also get to know the rest of the team so that when a pup’s pri­mary walker is sick or on vaca­tion, a famil­iar face will be there to take him for a walk. Our walk­ers are ded­i­cated, highly qual­i­fied dog care providers, trained to han­dle any sit­u­a­tion and always ensure a safe expe­ri­ence for your dog.

Our Ser­vice

Chance 200x124 Dog Walking

Chance on a dog walk with NYC Doggies

We offer walks to suit all of our dogs’ ages and per­son­al­i­ties. We rec­om­mend hour-long small group walks for most dogs (max­i­mum of 3 dogs), with each mem­ber of the group care­fully cho­sen by con­sid­er­ing per­son­al­ity, size, and geo­graphic prox­im­ity to one another. How­ever, we also offer indi­vid­ual walks, ½ hour walks, and, on spe­cial request, 2 hour walks. We pro­vide our dogs with as much play­time as pos­si­ble by vis­it­ing neigh­bor­hood dog runs and min­i­miz­ing time spent on the street.While pro­vid­ing a supe­rior ser­vice for our dogs is the pri­or­ity, we also do every­thing we can to make using an NYC dog walk­ing ser­vice easy and pleas­ant for dog own­ers. We like to keep you updated and informed, so every day when your dog is returned home, her walker will leave a note detail­ing the day’s exploits and adven­tures. To get an even bet­ter sense of the fun their pups have, clients can see pho­tos by vis­it­ing their dog’s web­page at nycdoggies.com. There, clients can also view their sched­ule and invoices with an online sys­tem that helps us to pro­vide an effi­cient, seam­less ser­vice. Our com­mit­ment to pro­vid­ing the best ser­vice extends to flex­i­bil­ity in sched­ul­ing — we will always do our best to accom­mo­date last minute, occa­sional, and week­end walks.
