Barking Trails was such a life saver! We met our rescue dog and the foster said we could take him home THAT SAME DAY! We were not quite prepared but did not want to pass on this opportunity. We rushed to the store to pick up some essentials and got the house ready. Once we brought Chubo home we realized that we needed to line up a dog walker. Adam was incredibly responsive and sent someone the next day! Harinate is our walker and Chubo loves the days she comes to walk him. You can't go wrong with Adam and his team at Barking Trails!

Details: 1 dog • 2 - 10 years old • Large (41 - 70 lbs) • 30 minutes (standard) • No preference • My home, venue, etc.

Professional, reliable and I can tell they enjoy what they do. We needed a dog walker in the mornings as I recover from foot surgery. We are now on our second week, and my Beau looks forward to his walks with Ana. Thank you..
