Can I meet a walker before booking with them?

Yes! All our meet and greets are complementary and free of charge. You can browse through profiles and read our walker bios by tapping on "See Local Caretakers" on the homescreen. When you find a walker who seems like a good match, you will request a Meet and Greet with them to set up a time for a meeting. You can also opt to have us match you with a professional walker.

Can I have the same walker each time I book?

We believe the best experience for your dog is a consistent walker, and when you book with Barkly, you will book with the same walker. If that walker is unavailable, you’ll have the option to cancel the walk or request that we send a backup walker.

Do I get to see the route my walker takes on the walk?

You will be able to track each walk route in the app so you know precisely where your dog was walked. All visits are also followed up with detailed notes and pictures from the walker, so you know exactly how each visit went. Additionally, we offer 24/7 live customer support, so if you ever need anything, we are always here happy to help!

Experienced Animal Caretaker/Dog Walker

Hello, my name is Kira and I have a cat, a Doberman, and a GSP. All very crazy but loveable pups. I’ve been working with animals for around 8-10 years now, I started by taking animal sciences classes learning about behavior, traits and diseases animals can carry, and how to handle and care for over 200 species of animals. Recently I’ve been working a lot more closely with dogs and learning more in depth about behavior and training. I have also been pet sitting and dog walking for 5-6 years, and I hope to learn more from your pups and also help them with their manners and leash boundaries if needed!See Profile
