Dog Walking in Phoenix
General Rate: $25.00 – $30.00 Per Dog Walk (rates will vary depending on distance and needs; there is a minimum of 2-5 walks per week)
Dog walking services on a weekly basis only. This service is great for those of you that either have a new or “older” puppy (some of them Never grow up ;*) that needs to take a bathroom break and get some much needed exercise or for those people that live in an apartment/condo with no back yard…or just for fun!
A normal Dog Walking visit is up to 30 minutes, depending on the weather, age/health of dog, etc. Longer visits can be arranged for an additional fee.
Service includes: Dog Walks are generally done within your neighborhood. Or, if you prefer, for an extra fee we can travel to your favorite local Dog Park. As well, I provide fresh water upon arrival at home and leave the dog with his/her favorite treat. Additional services can include: feedings, administering meds, retrieval of mail & or newspaper, adjusting temperature or windows/blinds, etc.
Hours of Operation: 9:00 am – 6:30 pm
After Hours: 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm (applies to those with no dog door who need late night visits/walks)
Arizona is known for our hot, hot summers that seem to last most of the year. As such, a general rule to follow is – if it’s too hot for you to walk on the ground, it’s too hot for your dog! Therefore, my hours for dog walking during the hot summer months from Mid May – late Sept I offer a potty break and playtime inside the home instead of dog walking.
Getting Acquainted: There is no charge for the initial consult visit required of all new dog walking clients. This refers to our first time meeting as well as pet’s you acquire in the future that you may need me to meet for the first time. Any other visit that is not pertaining to a new pet made to your home will be charged a regular visit fee. This includes getting reacquainted with or receiving special care instructions for an old pet. Or, you may choose to simply call or email the new instructions.
Key pick up/drop off: We will store your key indefinitely, at no additional charge in a secure facility. However, some clients prefer to have their key returned after each completed service, in which case you can either hide your key each visit in a safe place at no responsibility of Heidi’s Historic Home & Pet Care, or pick up & drop the key off at my home, at the beginning and end of each service at no extra charge. This is easy to do and requires no contact with Heidi, just text Heidi with a time you would like to drop off key or pick up and you can simply leave your key in the mail box.
