Dog Walkers

Whatta Pup! teaches a Professional Dog Walker course 3 times per year in order to train and develop Dog Walkers in our city. Some of our students have been knowledge-tested and they come recommended by Whatta Pup!.

The individuals and companies listed below are the Dog Walkers who have:

  • have completed our Professional Dog Walker course and received over 80% on knowledge testing
  • or have lived up to our standards and proven themselves in business
  • and have agreed to live up to our Code of Conduct
  • do not condone, promote or use inhumane tools or methods.
Whatta Pup! will only associate with those who use humane tools and methods of dealing with dogs and their people.
