Dog Walking in Boston with Dogs R Us

What makes Dogs R Us different from the ‘rest of the pack’ is that your loved one is ALWAYS our top priority. Whether it is during a walk, play group, or a pet sitting. The care and security of your loved one is always number one. How can we do this you may ask? At Dogs R Us, our policy is to limit walking groups to a maximum of 4 dogs at any given time. We believe it provides better care and attention to your pet, as well as other the other client who are along for the adventure. In addition, the walks or play groups will typically last longer than the time agreed upon, and will always be within the time frame you requested, without exception. This, we feel, can only help improve the health and well being of your loved one.

In addition to our most popular service, group walks, we also provide “play groups”. This service is designed for our more active clients who require more time exercising & playing with others than our other clients. We, at Dogs R Us, believe in standing by the products and services we offer. Therefore, when we say play groups, we mean play groups! We believe in providing the best environments for our more active clients, So when you choose a play group for your pet, you can rest assured that your family member will get the best exercise and fun they can get while out on their adventure with their other friends!

Overnight stays are another service we provide, and we follow the same standards as with our other services. Through vigorous research, we have found that the overwhelming majority of pet owners prefer their pet to be cared for in their own safe, and familiar environment. We will visit your family member 3 times a day… Morning, afternoon and night, with a final walk after their evening meal. We make certain that their water bowl is constantly full, take in the mail, water plants, switch lights on and off for the safety and security of your family member. However, if you would like for us to sleep overnight with your family member, we can help you out with that as well.

We live in an increasingly technical world today, and we understand that you want, and need, to know how your loved one is doing throughout the day. Dogs R Us uses the latest in software technology from Bettawalka LLC., a new and exciting company, providing cutting edge software to a real world business like ours at Dogs R Us. This people friendly software is fun, exciting and very easy to navigate. As a Dogs R Us client, you may log in at any time, upload a picture of your loved one, populate all of your personal information, walk routes, or add any notes you feel may help make your family member outings more enjoyable.

We are really excited to offer software to our clients, which is iPhone or BlackBerry® compatible. This allows us to update you “real time” notifications via text messages or emails about a wide variety of information, including when your pet walk or play group started, ended, as well as any pictures or notes left regarding the activity. For scheduling and cancellations, a 24 hour window is available to make any changes you may need. If changes are necessary within 24 hours, we must be contacted directly to make the necessary changes to the most current schedule. You will also have the opportunity to choose the payment method you prefer & set up any payment schedule you like, whether it is a weekly or monthly schedule.
 
We at Dogs R Us believe in maintaining the highest level of electronic security. Information will never be sold, or shared with an outside party. The information you provide to us is kept strictly confidential.

House keys you provide to us will be treated with the utmost security. We will make a second copy of your key for our own security, if your regular walker calls in sick (and has your house key with them), in the unlikely event that the key gets lost, or you get locked out of your house. In the event that your regular walker misplaces your keys, we will have a back up key, and will notify you immediately, and will assist you in getting your locks re-keyed if you so desire.  In the event that you do not want us to make a second copy of your keys, simply notify us of that fact, & we will only maintain the one key you provide to us.

We at Dogs R Us believe so strongly in providing the highest level of care to your family member that we will forge relationships with other companies that may be able to help out if we cannot. We will strive to make your choice in choosing a pet walking service as painless as possible. We realize that you have enough to worry about, and choosing this type of service should not be one of them.

The final aspect that sets us apart from other pet services is that we maintain a blog on our website to foster a more real ‘family’ environment amongst our clients. All information and topics will be posted, so all of our clients may share information amongst the rest of our family. You will be able to actively participate, review any remarks, compliments, or even concerns about the services we provide… or maybe even advise us on how to improve our services! After all, we are here for you and your precious loved one.  Feedback is what will make us better.

Thank you for visiting Dogs R Us!
