Thorough Updates
Expect detailed updates with cute photos telling you how the walk went. We'll never keep you guessing!
Reinforcing the good stuff
Working on something with your dog, such as leash manners or sitting before crossing the street? Tell us, and we'll be sure to reinforce any desired behaviors! We can also use treats if provided.

30-minute walk: potty & stretch break
$48 per walk
Some days, even a “quick walk” feels impossible to squeeze in, and you don’t want your dog paying the price. Our 30-minute walks are designed for those packed workdays when you simply can’t step away, but your pup still needs a real break: fresh air, a potty stop, a change of scenery, and a little joy in the middle of the day. We step in as your reliable midday stand-in, making sure your dog isn’t bored and restless for hours on end. You stay focused on work, and your dog gets the essential check-in that keeps them comfortable, happy, and seen.
60-minute walk: exercise & decompression
$95 per walk
Some dogs don’t just “need a walk” — they need an outlet. If you share your home with a high-energy pup, you know the signs: pacing during your Zoom calls, barking at every passerby, that wild-eyed zoomie look right when you’re finally trying to wind down at night. Our 60-minute walks are built exactly for these dogs and for you. This isn’t a rushed loop around the block; it’s a full hour of structured exercise, mental engagement, and decompression with a professional who understands high-energy personalities.
These walks are also designed to ease your mental load. With Simply The Best handling your dog’s big walk, you get to exhale. You’ll know your dog is out with someone experienced, calm, and fully present — not a random person from an app with no insurance, not a neighbor doing you a favor — and you’ll get detailed updates after every visit. By the time you close your laptop, you’re not bracing for chaos; you’re greeting a dog who’s already had their big adventure. Less guilt. Less overwhelm. More peace at home… for both of you!
All The Ways We Take Care Of Our Clients
What “Simply The Best” means in practice for our clients and their pets.
Vetted, trained, and insured team members
All our team members are rigorously vetted, including 3 interviews, 4 reference checks, and a comprehensive background check. They also receive 1-2 weeks of training to ensure they're as great in reality as they are on paper. We are insured through Business Insurers of the Carolinas, the industry's leading insurance. All this means safety for your dog and peace of mind for you.
A unified experience
We've spent years building and perfecting the standard operating procedures our team members rely on. This ensures you get a consistent, outstanding experience every time. Never worry again because you know exactly what to expect.
Your dog will never miss a walk
When working with an individual, you're left in a lurch if they can't make it: who's going to walk your dog? Never experience that panic again. Our team has built-in redundancy, meaning it's on us to supply coverage -- and we always do! -- so you can focus on the day ahead.
real-time updates after walks for total peace of mind
Know exactly how your dog is doing with each visit. We send detailed updates and photos that put you at ease. We monitor the condition of dogs in our care vigorously and immediately alert you of any changes.
Professional care that fits seamlessly into your busy schedule
Our process is designed to make your life easier and give you time back. That's why we come to you! Plus, our app makes scheduling - including changes and cancellations - a breeze with just a few clicks on your phone at any time.
Team members who are W-2 employees
Our walkers are W-2 employees covered by workers’ compensation. This is one of the professional safeguards built into our service and distinguishes our team model from hiring an independent individual directly.

A 30-minute private walk is $48, and a 60-minute private walk is $95. The 30-minute option is ideal for a midday potty break, fresh air, and companionship. The 60-minute option provides more time for exercise, sniffing, mental stimulation, and decompression.
Yes! Recurring weekday walks are the heart of our dog walking service and what we specialize in. A consistent schedule reserves space for your dog, makes care easier to manage, and allows you to reclaim your time without repeatedly arranging individual visits.
Your dog will become familiar with a small team of trained professionals rather than depending on just one individual. This team approach provides consistency while also allowing us to arrange backup coverage when a regular walker is unavailable. The scramble never falls on you.
