Dog Walking
Every dog is special to us.
We love ALL dogs, regardless of their breed or size.
Professional Dog Walking in Okemos and Greater Lansing
A dependable mid-day walk provides your dog with exercise, a bathroom break, and familiar companionship. You receive an update about the visit, so you know how your dog is doing while you are away.
Recurring Walks Build a Reassuring Routine
Recurring walks create a familiar routine and allow your dog to create comfortable relationships with caregivers who learn their pace, their preferences, and their normal behavior.
Discuss the weekdays and visit length you need so we can confirm availability and plan a consistent schedule.
Who Recurring Dog Walking is For
- Professionals whose dogs spend a substantial part of the day alone
- Older adults who would like reliable help providing regular exercise
- Households with changing work or family schedules
- Dogs who benefit from a predictable routine and familiar caregivers
- Guardians who value detailed communication and professional accountability
Care Shaped Around the Individual Dog
Each walk is shaped around your dog. An energetic dog may enjoy purposeful movement; an older dog may prefer a slower outing with time to sniff. A timid dog may need patience and predictibility. Comfort, weather, and ability guide the visit.
Prancing Poodle combines attentive care with established procedures, clear communication, and professional accountability. During your consultation, we explain caregiver arrangements, scheduling, and support so you can make an informed decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I book a walk anytime?
We provide dog walks 365 days a year.
Do you walk dogs in inclement weather?
We walk dogs in all sorts of weather every day, if it is safe to do so. We don’t walk if there is thunder and/or lightning. We take precautions in very cold or very hot weather to ensure that your dog remains safe. If we can’t safely be outside the entire time of the service, we make sure the dog gets out to take care of their elimination needs and then we play with them inside the rest of our time together.
Will we always have the same dog walker?
A primary walker will be assigned to your account. The primary walker will contact you prior to the start of services to set up a time to introduce themselves to you and your dog. We are sure they will quickly become a great friend to your dog. However, should you have any concerns about the walker, just let us know and we will be happy to make a change for you.
It is always possible that a backup walker might need to fill in from time to time, but you will be notified if a change is needed and you can be assured that your dog will always be walked if a walk is scheduled.
Can I book a specific time for a walk?
Walks are booked within a time window. We cannot promise a specific time for every walk, but we guarantee we will arrive within the time window.
Can I be sure my dog will be safe?
Safety is a top priority for us. Our dog walkers are certified in pet first aid and CPR and they have experience with dogs of all sizes and many breeds. While we want your dog to enjoy the delights of fresh air and good sniffing along the way, our policy is to keep your dog away from other humans and dogs while we are out walking. That way, everyone enjoys a safe and peaceful outing every time.
Can I cancel my walk if my plans change?
We appreciate notification of cancellations as soon as possible. However, if we have an hour’s notice prior to the start of the walk, you will not be billed for a cancellation.
How to Get Started
The first step is a complimentary consultation — an unhurried conversation where we meet your dog, learn what matters most to you, and make sure we are the right fit for your needs.
After that, you will complete a simple online profile in our scheduling software. From there, booking services is as straightforward as a quick online request.
There is no complicated process. There is just the beginning of a relationship built around your cat's well-being and your peace of mind.
