If you're located slightly outside of Oh My Dog's service area, you can try reaching out to them and seeing if they'd be willing to make an exception for your pup.

Oh My Dog offers three types of dog services: (1) on or off-leash trail walks, (2) on-leash walks around your neighborhood, and (3) puppy visits for potty breaks and mental stimulation.

With their trail walks, your dog is taken on a one-hour excusion, outside the canyons of steel, to peaceful parks and less-trodden trails. Having the chance to hike with other, well-socialized pups, it's like your dog enjoys summer camp three days per week. Yes, their off-leash adventures package requires a minimum of 3 walks per week, and the charge is $25 before tax for each session.

Their on-leash, neighborhood walks are also one-hour in duration, where your dog's walker accompanies your pup to nearby greenspaces, again in a group setting. Similar to the trail walks, the neighborhood walks require a minimum of 3 walks per week for your pup to secure a spot, with a cost of $22 per session.

Finally, Oh My Dog offers friendly puppy visits, in case your pup hasn't received vaccinations (and isn't fit for outside exposure), or if your puppy doesn't yet have the strength for longer walks. One way you can use their puppy visits is when you're at the office on days where it's not "bring your puppy to work day"; instead, you can hire Oh My Dog's puppy visitors to give your pup a potty break and some mental and physical stimulation while you're away. Their service cost is $18 for one session per day, or $26 for two sessions per day – both quotes before taxes.

In addition to their dog-care services, Oh My Dog also offers cat-sitting, with one visit per day being $25, and two visits per day being $45.

From their website, Leash & Paws mentions that they specialize in serving the Downtown Toronto area. They pride themselves in being among the most professional dog walkers in the city; it's likely that they'd serve your pup, even if you're slightly outside of their most popular service area, so it's worth reaching out to them on their website to explore if their walkers would be willing to pound the pavement side-by-side with your pup!

Leash & Paws offers the most comprehensive range of pet services that you could ask for. Not only do they offer private and group dog walks, but they also offer puppy playdates, dog sitting, dog boarding (at your house or their house), dog wedding assistance, and hotel in-room dog sitting!

With so many dog-care services offered, it greatly adds to convenience, since your dog's regular walker could also serve as your pup's caretaker in case you'd like to fly off to warmer destinations! All-in-one service providers like Leash & Paws are quite a popular option for many pup parents.

For private dog walks, Leash & Paws charges $24 for 30-minute dog walks, and $28 for 45-minute dog walks. Their group dog walks, involving 2-4 dogs, cost $21 for 60-minutes. For group walks, your pup will likely get used to a couple familiar furry faces over the coming weeks and months.

Your pup must also be up-to-date with vaccinations and at least 6 months old for private walks and 12 months old for group walks.

Leash & Paws asks that you provide them with a housekey to access your pup in case you're not at home.In case you're concerned about their team possibly misplacing your housekey, you could request to use a key lockbox (similar to the devices that realtors use) so that the key is safely stored and only removed to unlock and lock your door.

According to their website, A Walk Apart can provide your dog (or cat) with pet-care services if you live within the North York or Midtown Toronto areas. With that being said, they do their best to accomodate pup parent clients who live just outside their service area whenever possible, so it's worth inquiring even if you're slightly outside their region.

For group dog walks, their services are $24 for each hour-long walk, and $16 for a 2nd dog. In case you'd be looking for 12 or more group walks with A Walk Apart per month, the price nicely falls to $22 for each hour long walk rather than $24.

For $25, your dog can be walked for 30 minutes, and for $35 your dog can be walked for 60 minutes. Interestingly, Weekend Adventure walks are also offered, which are very unique.

These cost $45, and can be purchased in packages of 5 and 10 for discounts.

Similar to other dog walkers, you can either leave them a housekey to hold onto, be around when they pickup your pup, or can use a key lockbox to safely store your key for them to access when needed.

As a note, electronic keypads are also great and secure options, since you can set specific timeframes when certain codes work. Whichever option you choose, you can tell your walkers about it upon introducing them to your pup for the first time.

Based on the information from WeWag's website, they offer dog walking in a number of Toronto neighborhoods, including The Beaches, Cabbagetown & St. James Town, CityPlace, Corktown & Regent Park, Distillery District, Financial / Entertainment District, Harbourfront, King West, Leslieville & Riverdale, Queen West, St. Lawrence Market, and Yorkville.

WeWag offers three different types of dog walks in addition to puppy visits at home. The three types of walks include group walks for 60 minutes (which are capped at 4 dogs at any one time), semi-private walks for 45 minutes (which are capped at 2 dogs at any one time), and solo walks which last 30 or 45 minutes.

WeWag Toronto's puppy visits last 30 minutes, helping to mentally stimulate your puppy, while also giving him or her the chance to eliminate waste in case you're not at home.

For the three types of dog walking that WeWag offers (group, semi-private, and solo) as well as puppy visits, their pricing isn't explicitly displayed on their website; instead, they ask that you contact them via their website to receive a custom dog walking quote for your pup's needs.

With WeWag, safety is a prime concern which they take great lengths to uphold. Their precautions include making sure all dogs involved on dog walks are up to date with vaccinations, walkers are background-checked and insured, secure waist harnesses are used to leash dogs, walk reports with arrival/departure timestamps are provided, and the cars used to transport your dog are fully air conditioned and kept in good repair.

Yes, WeWag offers free meet-and-greets prior to any dog walking bookings! If you'd like to explore more, visit WeWag's website, where you can contact their team about your dog's specific needs.

With Rover, the most prevalent option for choosing a dog walker is by first doing a search of dog walkers within your city (using the Rover app), choosing 2-3 dog walkers with nice reviews, scheduling meet-and-greets with each of them, "test-driving" each walker, and choosing the walker which your pup and you like the most!

Upon your first booking, you'll be asked to provide home entry instructions for your Rover dog walker. Options for entry include: physical key, electronic door code (if your front door has one), or a lockbox.

Additionally, if you happen to reside in an apartment or condo building, you might need to also provide a fob or buzzer number for access while you're not at home. Know that, similar to Spot Dog Walkers, Rover provides home insurance for more peace of mind.

Founded in 2011, Rover is an American company worth about $300 million, which provides an online marketplace for pet owners to buy and sell pet care services, including pet sitting, dog boarding, and now dog walking as well.

In recent times, Rover's hands-off approach was revealed when, after a woman's dog (in the care of a Rover pet sitter) escaped the sitter's yard and was killed by a car, stated they're simply an advertising company for independent pet services contractors.

While Rover has become famous as a giant tech company, which provides dog sitters around the world, they've also expanded to provide dog walkers as well! However, unlike Spot Dog Walker and Oh My Dog, Rover is more like Kijiji, where you get connected with a list of dog walkers, and you have the responsibility make arrangements with your dog walker; in that way, Rover is different, since they simply provide a list of options, and are generally hands-off during the dog walking process.
