What does it cost and how do I book?
How much does a dog walker cost in Toronto?
We charge from $30 for a private on-leash walk of 30 minutes to an hour, from $35 for a one-hour off-leash group walk at Cherry Beach, from $90 a day for dog boarding and from $100 a day for pet sitting. All prices are starting prices in Canadian dollars, plus HST.
Is HST included in the prices?
No. The prices on this site are starting prices before tax, so HST gets added on top. We confirm the full price with you before anything is booked, so there are no surprises.
What am I paying for, exactly?
One of us, Abraham or Max, is holding the leash on every single walk. After more than ten years of walking Toronto's dogs, we still meet every new dog before their first outing, we handle every dog force free, and we are insured and licensed. You are paying for two people who actually know your dog.
Do you offer packages or discounts?
Yes. We have a 10-session package and a monthly pass for regulars. Ask us about them when we meet, and we will figure out together what fits your routine and your budget.
How do I book a dog walker with Jeepy Doggies?
Booking is by request rather than an instant online calendar. Message us on WhatsApp at +1 416-844-8837, text the same number, or email jeepydoggies@gmail.com. We'll arrange a meet before the first walk.
Do you meet the dog before the first walk?
Yes, always. We meet you and your dog before the first walk, which is why booking runs through a message rather than an online calendar.
How long is a private dog walk?
Private walks run from 30 minutes to an hour and are on leash, one-to-one. They start at $30, plus HST.
How do the walks work?
What does force-free dog walking mean?
Force-free handling means a dog is guided with rewards and management rather than pain, fear or intimidation. That's how we handle every dog, on every walk.
Where do you take dogs for off-leash walks?
Off-leash group walks run at Cherry Beach in Toronto, one of the city's designated off-leash areas. A walk lasts a full hour and runs in a small group. It starts at $35 per dog, plus HST.
What makes the Cherry Beach group walk worth it?
Your dog rides to the beach in the Jeep with the rest of the crew, runs off leash for a full hour, and rides home again. Cherry Beach is a designated off-leash park with sand, water and real room to run, and we keep the group small so every dog gets attention. An hour of running with friends is a proper workout, and it shows when they get home.
Will I get updates about my dog?
Yes. We send photos and videos from walks and stays, and we send even more of them while you are travelling, because we know that is exactly when you want to see a happy dog.
Which parts of Toronto does Jeepy Doggies serve?
Downtown east and Toronto's east end, from Harbourfront and Cabbagetown out to The Beaches. That includes Leslieville, Riverdale, Riverside, St. Lawrence, Corktown, the Distillery District, Regent Park, Greektown and the Upper Beaches.
How do boarding and sitting work?
Is your dog boarding a kennel?
No. Boarded dogs stay in our own home, with us, rather than in a kennel or a facility. Boarding starts at $90 a day, plus HST.
Why does boarding start at $90 a day?
Your dog moves in and lives with us while you are away. They share our home, keep their usual routines, and sleep in the house with us at night. Nobody hands them off between shifts, and no part of their day happens in a cage. The price is for that: two people your dog already knows, caring for them day and night.
What is the difference between dog boarding and pet sitting?
With boarding, your dog stays in our home from $90 a day. With pet sitting, we care for your pet in your own home from $100 a day.
Who are Jeepy Doggies?
Is Jeepy Doggies insured and licensed?
Yes, we're insured, licensed and force free. Ask us about the specifics of our cover any time.
How long has Jeepy Doggies been walking dogs?
Over ten years. We're two people, Abraham and Max, and we've been walking Toronto's dogs the whole time.
