A Walk Around The Block

Specialties

Daily Dog Walking, Exercising and Pet Sitting.

We take care of your pet when you just can’t. A Walk around The Block provides either 15 or 30 minutes of exercise for your dog in the morning, afternoon or evening. No need to hurry home from work or reschedule that meeting or appointment or miss that dinner date or movie. Your dog will have a nice walk, a fresh bowl of cold water and a treat while waiting for you to come home.

We know how stressful that quick business trip, family commitment or other travels can be on you and your pets. We want you to feel comfortable with your travels, so rely on us. We will come into your home and take care of your pet with multiple visits for feedings, walkings and other household needs such as bringing in the mail, rotating lights and opening and closing blinds and drapes. This service can be completely customized to fit the needs of you and your pets. So don’t fret your time away, we’ll be there to keep your pet & home on their daily schedule.

History

Established in 2012.

We believe ALL pets are special. The core value of our company is simple. We have the same respect, passion and love for our client’s pets that we have for our own pets and treat them accordingly. A Walk Around the Block founders, Michael Goodin and David Bronder, are true pet enthusiasts who have turned their pet passion into a quality business providing the same high level of care to your pet (s) that they give their own dogs, Marty and Tuxx. Michael and David also make certain their human clients are equally as happy and content as their pets, and provide a list of services for human dwellings (which are performed with the same love and care as the pet services).
