You will need the help of people close to you who have hired a pup walker before. Doing so make reduce the hassle of searching. If the person your neighbor or friend uses for the walks does a good job, get their contacts so that you can call for more information.

If you want your pup to walk alone you might consider a company that does not allow unfamiliar pooches together. If they are large, at least they should walk in a group of not more than two and in case they are puppies, a group of three is good.

Similarly, get the contacts of all the remaining experts on your list and invite them to visit your home so that they spend some time with the pooch.
