About Company

Trails & Tails is a dog walking company that provides the benefits of a small local company with the reliability & perks of a large business, which means after each walk you receive a review with photos, GPS, and if your dog went to the bathroom and your walker has support from other walkers and a company behind them.  We know that inviting someone into your home to care for your best friend requires immense trust, which is why we prioritize setting up a client with a reoccurring consistent dog walker to take them out.  For additional peace of mind every member of the Trails and Tails team is experienced fully insured, bonded, and rigorously background-checked. Even though you will have this consistent walker, we are more than just the person holding the other end of the leash. We are a dedicated team of professional pet care providers who view dogs as beloved family members and are here to provide support or extra coverage when needed.
