Our dog Millie has been walked by Citizens Hound for almost 5years, and I can't recommend them…read morehighly enough. Millie is a senior dog now with several health challenges and allergies, and the crew has taken the absolute best care of her. They've genuinely become our extended family. The owner David welcomed her into his family when we were traveling -- she had the absolute best time playing with his little kids. Chris (and Olivia!) have been extended family to us too, helping with walks when we needed the most, and Millie is so excited every time she sees them. Kayla and Wes are the sweetest. Millie had a medical emergency when we were travelling and Wes promptly took her to emergency room and making sure she got the treatment she needed. Millie wags her tail whenever she is picked up. We've had a few different walkers over the last few years and have never been disappointed -- CH always made sure to put Millie in a pack that was the best fit for her needs. Our neighbors have stopped us so many times just to ask who our walker is, because Millie looks so happy walking with them. Booking and cancellation is also so easy through their app, and management is super responsive. I'd trust them with my fur baby with my eyes closed, we're sad to leave CH as we move to another city. We will miss this crew so much!

She takes care of our dog like he is her own. My husband and I tease each other that he might like Alex better than us. The service is incredibly reliable, and I trust them whole heartedly with our boy! I have referred friend to the service, and they all have had the same experience. I also find their pricing very reasonable. I highly recommend Citizen Hound!

Oh gosh, where do I even start? Natalie and her team are the best in the business!…read more We first reached out to Natalie after relocating from New York City with our 1 year old mini goldendoodle, Charlie. Charlie is super attached to us and he is very sensitive and loving. We took our time finding a walker we trusted and connected with. Immediately upon meeting Natalie, we felt so comfortable! She has the sweetest and most kind demeanor and really makes you (and your pup) feel safe and at ease. Natalie and her team are very reliable and look after the dogs they walk as though each of the pups were their very own! Charlie has had various dog walkers in NYC, but never once did he wait by the door, wagging his tail when he knew it was time to go for a walk (he's a bit of a homebody). Now, when he knows it's his time with Natalie and her team, he literally waits by the door with a big smile on his face, wagging tail, and barks with excitement to head on out! He leaves incredibly easily with Natalie and doesn't even look back to say goodbye to his mama! Haha. He comes back tired from great play time and very happy & content. Additionally, Natalie and her team provide walk updates after every walk and keep in constant communication with you. Given the craziness surrounding COVID, Natalie continued to keep us updated about new guidelines and when walks would resume. Truly so professional - we feel so very luck to have found her! I cannot say enough good things about Wags, Paws and Heart and highly recommend you give them a shot if you're looking for a new best pal for your sweet little pupper! You 100% will not regret it!

When she comes back she naps all afternoon. He takes good care of the dogs. My dog is nervous all the time around other dogs in confined spaces, so when loading the dogs into the van, Chris gives my dog a little special treatment and lets her sit in the passenger seat. Chris also sends photos every so often, whenever I get them I'm so happy to see my dog enjoying playing with her friends. He also tells me about my dog's reactions when they were out in the field, like if she reacted to drones or airplanes flying overhead, so that I could watch out for those. He's very transparent with his communication, if there's an update to the pickup schedule he'll email ahead. He also responds to text messages for real time comms. When I had to travel for a month at a time, he was also very flexible with picking my dog up from my sitter's location. As long as the request is reasonable Chris is very willing to work something out. My dog gets so excited when she hears Chris's van pull up under our window.

We will definitely use them again for our next trip! Girls said "Thank you Doggy Dash! "

Our dog is a…read moresweetheart, unless you try to enter the house, ride a skateboard, or are a bum...so with that said, finding someone who got our sweetheart "security" dog - was key. Seth not only won our pup over - very quickly I might add - but also has been so great with him. Our furbaby loves to see Seth, is comfortable overnight (which is not normal), and is tired after being out with the group. A HUGE plus are all the photos he posts on FB, one, I know my dog is fine, but when at work or traveling, this warms my heart...Seth is super responsive, listens to me, the sometimes crazy dog mom, about issues our pup might be having (haha)...he is reliable, communicates clearly and regularly, overall where is my A++++!

I can't say enough about this company. I adopted a 2 year old German Shepherd from the SPCA about a…read moremonth ago, and found Joustin, Brent & team about two weeks ago. Let me just say: adopting a two year old German shepherd knowing no back story has been a tough one. Joustin has helped me navigate the tough times with Coop (my GS). From recommending and bringing me some food for him to try that has nearly cleared up his stomach problems, to tips on best practices for when Coop is testing me or acting up, etc. They keep Coop on a 4' leash while they're getting to know him, and vice versa. But Coop is getting to socialize with other dogs (which it seems clear he didn't get any socializing before I got him). Joustin checked in everyday after his walks to see how he was (temperament wise), and spent some time talking to me at the end of the week to go over what he thinks is the best plan of action for Coop to be able to grow and go off leash. He'll be in a group with larger dogs, hopefully getting to run around when he's better with recall. Brent is who comes to pick up and drop off Coop. Coop gets SO EXCITED when we open the door and Brent is there. He is so kind, both to me and Coop. When he brings him back, he gives me a run down of the day, letting me know how he was, and if he went potty if it was normal (as that's been an issue). If I don't answer the door right away, he'll call or text (sometimes both). Super helpful! I was no walk in the park with these guys, as getting used to this new normal with a pup who can both be the best cuddler, an amazing listener and give you "F you" eyes all within 5 minutes has been challenging and guilt ridden- but these guys have been nothing but helpful, professional and a HUGE stress relief.

Puppy day care has ensured he gets the exercise and socialization he needs while we're at work. We come home to a happily exhausted puppy everyday. Our priorities in a dog day care were 1. A safe and supervised environment for a growing puppy 2. Safe and structured socialization with other dogs. We have noticed that his manners when playing with other dogs have improved so much since he started. When we take him to the park we can clearly see that he has learned how to play with dogs of all sizes and ages. We also love seeing him show up on the dog walks instagram so we can see him enjoying his day while we are in the office. Dogwalks has been so helpful and patient with him.
