Providers are spread across areas like Downtown Oshawa, Oshawa Centre area, Taunton Road corridor, so you can pick one close to home.
Is a group walk or a solo walk better for my dog?
It depends on the dog. Social, well-recalled dogs often do better in a group and it costs less. Reactive dogs, dogs in training, seniors and post-surgery cases need a solo walk where the pace and the encounters can be controlled. A walker who insists your reactive dog will be fine in a group without meeting them first is worth avoiding.
How long should the walk be?
Thirty minutes is the common default and suits most dogs as a midday break. High-energy breeds often need 45 to 60 minutes, or two shorter walks. Puppies and seniors usually do better with shorter, more frequent outings. Ask whether the quoted time is door-to-door or actual walking time.
What happens in bad weather?
Ask before booking. Practice varies — some walkers shorten the route and add indoor play, others keep the full duration in all conditions. Winter salt on sidewalks is a real issue for paws in Ontario, so ask whether they rinse paws afterward or expect you to supply boots.
Should a dog walker be insured?
Ask directly. There is no provincial licensing requirement for dog walkers in Ontario. Liability insurance covers injury or damage during the walk, and bonding covers theft where the walker has house access. Established walkers can usually show proof of both.
How many dogs will be walked at once?
This varies by walker and by municipality — some Ontario municipalities cap the number of dogs one person may walk at a time in public spaces. Ask for the number and how the walker groups dogs by size and temperament. A large group with one handler is worth questioning.
