Solo & Buddy Walks

At iDog we believe our fur-clients and their parents should have the opportunity to meet their walkers before starting services for both comfort and safety. We require a M&G prior to beginning any care services to allow for proper introductions and assure we are the right fit.

M&G’s take about 30 minutes and are available weekdays ($20) from 4pm – 6pm and weekends ($25) depending on availability.

Please keep in mind M&G’s do have a charge ($20-$25) so that iDog staff may be compensated for their time and travel expenses. This fee is waived for clients within our partner buildings.

Dog walk packages require a minimum number of services per month including walks, daycare, and dog park excursions.

iDog requires notification of package selection or cancellation by the 5th of the month. Package alterations after the 5th of the month are not permitted.

All package invoices are due on the 5th of that month, any positive balance remaining will be applied to the following month. Any negative balanced will be billed at the end of the month

If you cancel under the required minimum services the cancelled walks will be billed in full.

iDog walkers do not carry keys, instead keys are housed onsite at our clients location in one of three ways:

1. Lock Box: Client keys are placed within a secure lockbox. Only iDog staff assigned to your dog’s walks have access to the combination. These can be place outside of homes or hung securely on apartment doors and can be used in combination with call boxes. *PREFERRED

2. Concierge: Client keys are picked up from building concierges in exchange for their ID during the course of the walk. Clients are required to notify their concierge to give iDog access. When selecting this option please ensure you have a reliable concierge.

3. Smart Lock Code: Only iDog staff assigned to your dog’s walks have access to the combination. *PREFERRED

Your walker will arrive within a 2 hour time window of your choice. If you have greater flexibility for a larger time window please let us know. Time frames outside of regular operating hours (9am – 6pm) incur an additional charge.
