travel carePet sitting
Most dogs don't dream about going to a boarding facility while you're on vacation.
They'd rather stay home, where everything smells familiar, sleep in their own bed, and stick to the routine they already know. We offer everything from quick drop-in visits to all-day pet sitting, Bed & Breakfast care, and overnight stays, so your dog can stay comfortable and on their normal routine at home.
How to get startedReliable pet care starts here.
We'll walk you through the process, answer your questions, and make sure we're the right fit before your first visit.

Walks Wiggles & Wags
The part no one says out loudMost dog walkers say the same three things…
The neighbor. The college kid home for the summer. The hobbyist with a magnetic car sign. The gig app that matches you with a stranger in ninety seconds.
They all say about the same three things:
→ I love dogs.
→ I'm experienced.
→ I'm bonded and insured.
But here's what no one says out loud.
Bonded and insured pays you back after something goes wrong. It doesn't prevent anything. It's a receipt, not a plan.
And almost everyone loves dogs and anyone can have experience. But not everyone has a system.
The question is..
what happens on the days when life goes sideways?
The flat tire, the emergency, the burned-out dog walker, the schedule that's suddenly too full.
If the answer is one person, you don't have a plan. You have hope.
And hope is a wonderful thing. It's just a terrible business model.
Five questions you need to ask any dog walker you hand your keys to:
① What happens if you're sick or have a personal emergency?
② Do you have backup & are they contracted out?
③ How will I know you came & how long you stayed?
④ What are your protocols in case something happens? (dog gets loose, another dog attacks my dog, etc)?
⑤ Where’s my personal information & pet care details stored? In a secure system or on your phone?
Most dog walkers can't answer these questions.
Here's how we handle life’s curveballs
A Backup Before You Need One
Dog walker sick on a Tuesday? Flat tire on Wednesday? We’ve got you covered. Life happens to us, too. The difference is we planned for it. Every WW&W dog walker is an employee, who is background-checked, insured, and professionally trained to our written standards.
Proof Every Visit Happened
GPS-tracked walks. Timestamped clock ins & clock outs. Photos on your phone before you've thought to check. You'll never wonder whether the walk happened or whether it lasted as long as it should have. We’re fully transparent with our visits.
real systems, not a notes app
Your schedule, care plan, home access information, vet info, and visit history live in professional password-protected pet care software our team can see. Nothing depends on one person's memory or battery dying.
Anyone can hold a leash and promise to show up.
We spent the last eight years building the systems, the team, and the standards that helps us keep our promise, visit after visit.
That's the Walks Wiggles & Wags difference.
From the founder
I started Walks Wiggles & Wags in 2018 after hearing the same story over and over from dog owners.
"Our walker was amazing...until they weren’t."
And when it happened, the response was almost always the same: "We're sorry."
Sorry doesn't help when your dog is home alone or you have to change your entire day to step in.
So I built the company I wished existed. One where reliability isn't left to chance. Every client has a care plan. Every employee is trained. Every visit follows documented procedures. Every service is backed by a team, not just one person.
More than 30,000 visits later across Morris and Somerset counties, we've built exactly the kind of company I couldn't find.

Questions worth asking any dog walker
-
We regularly welcome new members throughout Morris and Somerset Counties. Availability depends on your location, preferred visit times, and our current routes. The best way to find out is to complete our New Client Form, and we'll let you know if we're a good fit.
-
Every membership includes guaranteed backup coverage from a trained teammate who has already met your dog and reviewed their care plan. You'll be notified, and the visit happens as scheduled. In eight years, we've never missed one.
-
Your dog is cared for by a small, consistent team — usually one primary walker with one or two familiar backups. That's deliberate. A solo walker is a single point of failure. A small team is how the schedule survives real life.
-
Every visit is GPS-verified and timestamped, and you'll get a photo and update after each one. You'll never have to wonder who came, how long they stayed, and what happened during the visit.
-
Employees. W-2, background-checked, trained to our written standards, and covered by our insurance. We don't use gig contractors, because accountability can't be outsourced.
-
Yes, when our schedule allows. Our primary focus is serving recurring members, so occasional visits are very limited and don't include the same member benefits or scheduling priority.
-
Dogs are our primary focus, but we also care for cats and other household pets when they're part of an existing client relationship. If you have questions about your specific pets, just ask—we're happy to talk through your needs.
-
We're probably a great fit if you're looking for a long-term pet care partner rather than someone to call every once in a while.
Our business is built around recurring relationships because that's where we believe dogs receive the best care.
