Group Walks & Hikes

We offer expertly guided group walks and hikes, giving your furry companions the chance to socialize, enjoy the fresh air, and explore the beauty of the outdoors. Our mission is to provide a safe, fun, and stimulating environment where dogs can boost their confidence, improve social skills, and stay active. From laid-back neighborhood strolls to invigorating hikes on picturesque trails, we tailor each adventure to ensure every dog in our care has a fulfilling and enjoyable experience. Let us keep your pup happy, healthy, energized, and thriving!

Pack Hikes & Walks

Structured group dog walks on a leash are one of the best ways for our furry friends to socialize, build strong bonds, and work together as a team without the pressure of competition. While off-leash play at the dog park can be exciting, it’s only enjoyable when dogs are well-behaved and properly socialized. Unfortunately, not all dogs have mastered these skills. That’s where group walks—also known as "pack walks"—come in! They provide an excellent opportunity for both you and your pup to form connections and enjoy quality time together. After all, why walk alone when you can share the experience with great company?

 

Guess what pet parents, you can be involved too! Joining our regular group walks offers more than just exercise; it creates a supportive and welcoming community for you and your beloved dog. Whether your pup is a social butterfly who thrives in on-leash settings (like a wise senior dog) or needs controlled exercise due to an injury, pack walks could be the perfect fit. It’s also a fantastic way to meet other dog owners, swap advice, and simply enjoy the journey together. So grab your leash, bring your pup, and come join us for a fun, enriching adventure you’ll both look forward to every time!

Group Benefits

Safety Guidelines 

Your dog's safety is our highest priority while they’re in our care. As certified professional walkers, we’re trained to spot signs of distress and are fully equipped to handle emergencies. Every hike is carefully planned to ensure your dog has a safe, fun, and worry-free adventure.

  • We carry a fully stocked first aid kit at all times and are certified in Pet First Aid, CPCR, Transportation Safety, and more.

  • On hot days, we closely monitor for signs of overheating, provide fresh water throughout the hike, cool dogs down as needed, or adjust the hike’s duration to prioritize their comfort and health.

  • We remain alert to environmental hazards such as foxtails, toxic plants, and other dangers to keep your dog safe.

  • All hikes are conducted on spacious, designated trails to ensure maximum visibility and safety.

  • With our Walkies app, you can track your dog's adventure in real-time via live GPS, keeping you informed and connected every step of the way.

How long are the group pack walks and hikes typically scheduled for?

Our group outings are designed to give your dog 60 to 120 minutes of active fun and socialization in a safe and supervised environment. Our experienced team ensures your furry friend stays happy, engaged, and fully immersed in the playful company of other dogs. These outings go beyond physical exercise by offering mental stimulation and meaningful interactions, promoting your dog's overall health and happiness.

What safety measures are in place during the group pack walks and hikes?

To ensure the safety and well-being of every dog in our care, we consistently adhere to strict and carefully established guidelines. We limit group sizes to a maximum of (4) dogs (only 3 if a large/giant breed is a client) to provide personalized attention and ensure their safety. Additionally, we carry portable water bowls and a fully stocked first aid kit on every walk to handle any unforeseen situations. We always have emergency contacts readily available for quick response in case of any urgent needs. For added security and peace of mind, we keep a pet corrector spray on hand to effectively address any potential conflicts that may arise. We strictly enforce our leash policies at all times to maintain control and safety throughout the entire duration of every walk.

 

In particular, during hikes, we conduct thorough inspections from head to tail for ticks, fox tails, and any other debris that could potentially become trapped in dogs’ fur. Additionally, we mandate that our regular doggy hikers receive monthly flea and tick medication to prevent dogs from contracting these parasites or transmitting them to others. 

Are the group pack walks and hikes suitable for all dog breeds and sizes?

Dogs of all shapes and sizes can enjoy adventurous outings together! Whether your furry friend is a big, energetic breed or a small, spirited companion, we welcome all dogs to share in the joy of exploring nature and making new friends. We believe every pup deserves the chance to socialize and experience the great outdoors, and our group activities are a perfect way to do just that.To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, it’s important that your dog has good recall skills. We focus on including dogs that are comfortable on a leash and can reliably follow their owners' commands. This way, every dog can enjoy the adventure without any worries about safety or disruptions. We also want to create a positive atmosphere for all the dogs, so we don’t recommend bringing senior dogs, breeds that are sensitive to heat, or those with health issues or reactive tendencies. Rest assured, we carefully screen all dogs wishing to join based on their age, health, and breed.


Our group walks and hikes typically last about two hours, giving your dog plenty of time to exercise, explore, and socialize in a secure and well-organized setting. This duration strikes a perfect balance of activity and interaction, ensuring a fulfilling experience for every pup involved.
