Finding the right person to take care of your dog when you can’t is an important process. Thankfully, there are plenty of great professionals out there who can provide quality services for walkers and sitters alike. The first step in this process is to search for dog walkers in your area so you can get a better idea of who’s available, their backgrounds, and the services they offer. Making sure that you’re choosing someone trustworthy, dependable, and knowledgeable is key here.
Once you’ve found someone promising for the job, don’t be afraid to meet them in person before booking them to make sure you feel comfortable leaving your pup under their care. If you sense any discomfort or bad vibes during the meeting – keep searching until you find someone who makes a great impression!
Dog walking has become an increasingly popular way for busy Gold Coast residents to stay on top of their pet’s needs and ensure they get the proper exercise. Doing so can reduce anxiety, increase muscle tone and improve overall physical and mental health.
When it comes to making sure your pup get’s the best care, opting for professional dog walking is often the smart choice. Not only can you be sure that your pup will be walked in a safe environment by a trained and knowledgeable dog-walker but having someone available to introduce them to new people or take them off the beaten path can open up new opportunities for their growth and development that most owners just don’t have time for.
At All For Furry Friends, we have been helping Gold Coast residents take better care of their pups, providing personalized walks with careful attention paid to each individual dog’s needs and desires. We take pride in giving dogs like yours an opportunity to explore their city from a different perspective while forming relationships with other pups along the way.
With our personalized service and commitment to excellence, we make it our job to free up your schedule so you can catch those early morning gym classes or Monday night happy hours without feeling guilty about your canine companion at home.
Some of our services include
Short Dog Walk
Great for the dog that is older and likes to get out, but doesn’t have a huge amount of energy to burn. We have a great time, soaking up the sun and fresh air.
As a dog owner, you know that exercise is important for your furry friend’s overall health and happiness. However, not all dogs have the same energy levels or endurance. If your dog is older or has low energy, a short dog walk might be the perfect solution for getting them outside and moving.
What is a Short Dog Walk?
A short dog walk is exactly what it sounds like – a brief stroll with your dog around the neighbourhood or nearby park. While it may not be a high-intensity workout, it provides an opportunity for your furry friend to get some fresh air, stretch their legs, and explore their surroundings.
Why is it Good for Older or Low-Energy Dogs?
For dogs that are older or have low energy, long walks or high-intensity exercise may not be practical or comfortable. A short dog walk allows them to get some exercise without overexerting themselves or risking injury.
It’s also important to note that even low-energy dogs need to be active and engaged to maintain their physical and mental health. A short walk can help keep them motivated and stimulated, which can improve their overall well-being.
A short dog walk may not be a high-intensity workout, but it can still provide great benefits for your furry friend’s physical and mental health.
Long Dog Walk
My favourite, I get to spend quality time with your furry friend and ensure we have a fun and enjoyable walk. Perfect for a puppy or dog with plenty of energy that needs to burn it off to rest for the remainder of the day.
First and foremost, long walks are essential for the overall health and well-being of your furry friend. Dogs need plenty of exercise to stay healthy and fit, and taking your dog on a long walk can help burn off excess energy and improve their cardiovascular health. Moreover, a brisk long walk ensures that your dog gets the necessary mental stimulation they need, which helps to prevent boredom and destructive behaviour.
Aside from the health benefits, taking your dog on a long walk is also a great social activity. As you walk, your dog will meet other dogs and people, giving them an opportunity to socialize and build friendships. For shy, timid dogs, this can help build their confidence and make them more comfortable around new people and dogs.
Beach Trip or Dog Park
I love seeing the smile when a dog runs through the water and is having a great time. I can, when my schedule permits, take your dog to an approved dog beach for a fun adventure. Often needing more time for these events, please reach out to secure a slot, especially if its a weekly (or more often) event as slots disappear fast.
Beach Trip
If your dog loves water and enjoys playing in the sand, a beach trip might be the perfect option. Many beaches have designated dog areas where your furry friend can play off-leash and frolic in the waves. Here are some key benefits of taking your pooch to the beach:
1. Exercise: Dogs love to run and play, and the beach provides ample space for your pup to stretch their legs and get a great workout.
2. Socialization: Your dog will have the opportunity to meet and interact with other dogs, which is great for socialization and can help prevent behavioural problems.
3. Fresh air and sunshine: Spending time at the beach is a great way to get some fresh air and sunshine, which is good for both you and your pup.
