Horrible experience. No redeeming qualities. Do not use this service!
We used Urban Tailz for our dog Oakley for years while we lived in the city and always had a great experience. Oakley can be a little reactive around other dogs, so it was really important to us to have walkers who understood that, took the time to learn her habits, and let her get comfortable with them.

Urban Tailz has been an excellent dog walking service for us. All their staff is so sweet and patient with our dog, and they are great with special requests. Management is also wonderful and accommodating. Would recommend their services!

We especially love the detailed…

One of the things I appreciate most is their effort to keep your dog’s walker consistent—something that makes a huge difference for both the dog and the owner. Over the years, I’ve had three regular walkers, and…
