Benefits to Your Dog (& YOU!)
Physical Health: Regular dog walks do wonders for your dog’s overall health and well-being. The physical benefits are remarkable; they help manage weight and prevent obesity, promoting a healthier heart and stronger muscles. Additionally, the fresh air and exercise boost their immune system, keeping illnesses at bay. Your dog will feel more energetic and vibrant, and you'll enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing they're staying physically fit.
Mental Stimulation: Whether it's a brisk neighborhood walk or a leisurely sniff in the park, our visits go beyond mere exercise by providing your pup with enriching experiences. We engage their minds with interactive games, scent exploration, and exposure to new environments. This essential mental stimulation reduces stress and anxiety in your pup, which in turn enhances their mood and leaves them feeling happier and more content. You'll notice a happier and healthier environment for you, too!
Socialization Opportunities: Socialization plays a vital role in you dog’s behavior and temperament, and we aren’t just referring to socialization with other animals! Regular interactions with new humans (other than mom and dad!) and exposure to new sights, smells, sounds, textures, and environments can help your furry companion build confidence, alleviate anxiety, and develop good manners. The more exposure dogs have, the more they become used to the outside world.
Improved Behavior & Reduced Boredom: Regular exercise helps channel your dog’s energy in a positive way, reducing destructive behaviors caused by boredom and pent-up energy. A well-exercised dog is a calmer and better-behaved dog, making your time together more enjoyable. With us as a consistent outlet for their energy and curiosity, you’ll notice a significant improvement in their behavior and a reduction in unwanted habits.
Automated Scheduling: We understand that life can be busy. That's why we offer automated scheduling through our client app so you can set it and forget it. Once we've established your dog's walking routine, the app takes care of the rest. No need to worry about making individual bookings each time. Plus, our auto-pay feature ensures seamless transactions, making your experience as convenient and seamless as possible.
Peace of Mind: By booking with Tuckered Out, you're entrusting your beloved dogs to qualified professionals. We're insured. bonded, and background checked for your peace of mind and pride ourselves on reliability and transparency. We provide detailed virtual report cards, photos, time stamps, and GPS tracking with every visit for added accountability and convenience. You can relax knowing that your dogs are in good hands and will be treated like members of our own fur families!

Grant AlbersMarch 26, 2024They are the best! They work with my very irregular work schedule and always give my dog a fun, reliable walk. The great photos they include with every visit are worth the price alone!
Kelly MFebruary 14, 2024I am very happy with tuckered out dog walking! The team is very trusting, so sweet to my puppy, and he loves them! The updates and pictures during the visit are great to receive and lets me know my pup is having a great time. With their help he’s also learned place, touch, and other useful skills. The app is very easy to use for scheduling, communicating, and payments. 10/10 would recommend!
Cynthia RichardsFebruary 12, 2024They are professional, kind, and clearly love the pets in their care. I highly recommend them!
Carolyn CenterNovember 30, 2023I highly recommend Tuckered Out Dog Walking. A friend had used them so I shot Austin an email. The initial meeting was great - she spent a lot of time with us, getting to know Leroy, our house and routine. She asked questions I had not even thought of to share with her. Leroy is super happy (I can tell from the great photos and email updates) to have his time with Austin. We appreciate her professionalism and she is a great resource. Go ahead and book your next dog walk with them!
Eddie HerndonOctober 18, 2023My experience has been excellent. The staff is very communicative, professional and great with dogs!
Lynessa BrayJune 23, 2023I am Zuzu’s mom, but Austin and her crew are her besties. She has not only been taken well care of, but she has flourished under Tuckered Out’s care. Thank you guys.
Sam WalmsleyJune 1, 2023We could not have had a better experience with Tuckered Out Pet Care! Our cats had luxury treatment and it gave me peace of mind to know someone was checking on the house. Austin provided a write-up with details from each visit and the pictures provided were such a highlight to receive every day I attached my favorite :) We will be repeat customers for sure!
Beth ParisMay 31, 2023Austin at Tuckered Out Pet Care is AMAZING. She loves my dog Jasmine and the feeling is clearly mutual! Super service and thorough updates after every visit.
Jennifer SmithApril 17, 2023Tuckered Out was amazing with our bunny. They are extremely thorough and thoughtful! Our bunny can be stand-offish to new humans and she was very social according to the extensive reports we got! Very happy with their services and will absolutely be using them again. Not to mention referring people to them! 💕
