At present, walks are unavailable.  If you wish to be notified should they become available, please send us an email.

To ensure that we meet your needs, we offer two types of outing: Group or Private. 

Group Walk– The Menagerie is not currently accepting new dogs for Group Outings at this time. 
We take a group of 3 to 6 dogs to a hiking park or a dog park for an hour of fun and exercise.  Groups are put together based on a number of factors including size, activity level, and personality to ensure that all dogs are safe and have a good time. 

  • Great for social dogs who love to frolic and wrestle with others.

  • A slightly less expensive option that Private Outings.

  • Ideal for a long term schedule. 


 

Private Walk–
Customized to your dog’s exercise style.  Mellow stroll?  Brisk walk?  Fetch or wrestling in the back yard or local park?  No Problem!  Private outings can be half an hour or a full hour depending on your needs. 

  • Great for dogs who are less social or are dealing with their aggression towards other dogs.
  • Perfect for dogs who are not physically able to keep up with a group because of age, injury, or disability!
  • Individual attention allows training and behavioral modification plans to be followed closely. 
  • Great for last minute engagements. 

 

Rates–
Clients with regularly scheduled days receive discounted rates based on the number of days per week, which works out to roughly equivalent to 2 free weeks of walking a year.  The discounted rate applies to any extra walks they choose to add to their normal schedule.  When you purchase ongoing/set scheduled walks, you're buying the time slot, and rates are discounted already, there is no refund for cancelled walks, however if a spot is available, you're more than welcome to reschedule a cancelled walk to a different day of the week it was scheduled for.  Rates are per dog.  Families with 2 dogs receive a 10% discount on their Outing total , families with 3 dogs receive 15%, families with 4 dogs receive 20%.
