DOG WALKING
RECLAIM YOUR DAY: WE’LL HANDLE THE DOG WALKS, YOU FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS MOST
PRIVATE DOG WALKS in your neighborhood
At Walks Wiggles and Wags, we understand that your dogs aren’t just a pet but an important family member, and we're here to ensure they receive the best care possible while you're busy at work, closing that deal, or unable to tend to them.
Your busy life doesn't have to mean less care for your dogs, so that’s why our private dog walks seamlessly integrate into your busy days.
Our flexible dog walking service is tailored to meet the needs of your dog. Whether it's a quick stroll around the block, playing in the backyard, or a longer outing to the park, our 30 to 90-minute walks are designed to provide the perfect balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and potty breaks for your dog.
Certified in pet first aid and CPR, our Morris County and Sussex County dog walkers undergo a rigorous background check for your pet’s safety and your peace of mind.
Our professionally trained dog walkers ensure that your pet receives the personalized attention and exercise they need to stay happy, healthy, and well-balanced.
BENEFITS OF OUR PRIVATE DOG WALKING SERVICES
EXERCISE AND HEALTH
Regular exercise helps dogs maintain a healthy weight and keep their muscles and joints strong. Our professional dog walkers provide daily dog walks tailored to your dog's breed, size, and energy level.
MENTAL STIMULATION
Dogs are intelligent animals that thrive on mental stimulation. Our experienced dog walkers will provide physical exercise and engage your dog's mind through interactive play and sniffing adventures.
BETTER BEHAVIOR
A well-exercised and mentally stimulated dog is less likely to exhibit destructive behaviors such as chewing, digging, or excessive barking. Our daily dog walks help reduce behavioral issues.
PEACE OF MIND
Life can get busy, and sometimes it's challenging to find the time to give your dog the attention and exercise they need. You can have peace of mind knowing that your dog is well cared for.
SAFETY FIRST
Your dog's safety is our top priority. Our professional dog walkers are trained in pet first aid and CPR, and we use secure leashes and harnesses to ensure your dog remains safe and secure during their walks.
most asked questions about our PRIVATE DOG WALKING SERVICES
-
Yes, we are fully insured and bonded. Our insurance covers any accidents or injuries that may occur during walks, as well as any damage to property. You can have peace of mind knowing that your dog and your home are protected while in our care.
-
We recommend booking your dog walks as far in advance as possible. Some of our regular clients have already booked their Christmas and New Year vacation . We always do our best to accommodate last minute requests, but they are never guaranteed.
-
Yes, we walk dogs year-round and in every type of weather, including rain, snow, and summer heat. However, your dog’s safety is our # 1 priority so we may alter walk lengths to ensure the comfort and health of your dog in the event of extreme cold or heat. If the heat or cold is excessive, we may opt to spend part of the time indoors providing enrichment activities.
-
You will be assigned a primary dog walker and a backup walker based on your scheduling needs and your dog’s needs. While we try to keep the same dog walker on all visits, depending on the number of visits required and your requests, we may utilize additional sitters to provide coverage. This is a benefit to using Walks Wiggles and Wags vs. a hobbyist pet sitter.
-
No! All of our dog walks are private. We do not offer group walks, so your dog will receive one-on-one attention from your personal dog walker.
-
Our 5-star online reviews speak for themselves. Please feel free to check them out before making a decision to hire us. If you’re still not convinced, we'd be happy to provide references from satisfied clients who have used our services in the past. They can speak to our reliability, professionalism, and the quality of care we provide to their pets.
-
Our cancellation policy requires a minimum of 24 hours’ notice for dog walking services. We appreciate as much notice as possible for any cancellations or schedule changes. We understand that things come up unexpectedly, so we strive to be flexible and accommodating whenever possible.

It's a chance for us to address any questions or concerns you may have and ensure that both you and your dog feel comfortable and happy with the arrangement. We provide all new clients with ONE free meeting. Additional visits are charged at our normal rate of $35.
