Dog Jogs

Dog Jogs Helping pet parents feel less stressed since 2016 Dog Jogs is Edmonton's first dog jogging service! That's why we jog your dog for you!
(47)

Our mission is to help ease the mind of the busy and loving dog owner by exercising and caring for their dogs when owners are not able to. We know that every dog owner loves their pet and would do anything for them. We also understand that life happens and doesn't always allow for time to adequately stimulate our dogs physically and mentally, and sometimes a walk just isn't enough. Feel free to contact us for more information!

Dexter and his family have been working with our amazing dog trainer, Reina, on his reactivity and loose leash walking. When mom injured her foot, she signed up for our training walks to keep Dexter's training on track!

What do training walks look like? Our team reinforces whatever you’re focusing on with our dog trainers. For Dexter, it’s 95% reactivity training, but we also practice loose leash manners, especially on low-distraction days. We actively look for other dogs during training walks to work on Dexter's threshold.

Dexter used to react whenever he spotted another dog. In the photo, he spotted a family out with their dog and showed interest without reacting. Way to go, Dexter!

When life gets busy, our team steps in. Consistency is key, and we’re here to ensure your pup’s training stays on track, even when you don’t have the time.

As the temperatures rise, keeping your furry friends safe and happy is our top priority.

Here are some tips to ensure a paw-some summer:

Hydration is Key! 💧 Always have fresh water available to keep your pets cool and hydrated.
Paw Protection! 🐾 Hot pavement can hurt those precious paws. Stick to grassy and shady areas or walk during cooler parts of the day.
Safe Exercise! 🏃‍♂️ Avoid intense activities during peak heat hours. Take breaks in the shade and for water!

Need a hand with your pet this summer? Dog Jogs is here to provide peace of mind! Our reliable team is always ready to keep your pets safe and happy. Plus, you'll get updates after every service, so you know exactly what your pet’s been up to!

Stay cool and enjoy the summer, fur-riends! 🐶🐱

Happy Anniversary, Haven! 🥳🎉

Today, we're celebrating an incredible milestone—Haven's one-year anniversary as a Dog Jogger with Dog Jogs! 🐾

Haven might be quiet, but she’s nothing short of mighty. 💪 From day one, she set an ambitious goal for herself: double jog days! And guess what? She achieved it in record time!

Her dedication and passion for our furry friends shine through every single day. Haven's commitment to making sure every pup has the best outing ever is truly inspiring.

Join us in giving a huge shoutout to Haven for her amazing achievements and the love she brings to the Dog Jogs family. Here’s to many more miles and many more wagging tails 🐶

Way to go, Haven! 🎉👏

Even though our walking services are the most popular service we offer, we still do a lot of Dog Jogs!

On average, our team completes about 115 dog jogs a month which is like 3.8 jogs a day. But that's also not exactly how booking those jogs work and of course there is no such thing as a .8 of a jog 😂

Both small and large dogs are capable of running, but this decision to sign your dog up for jogs is more about your dog’s energy level, body type, and endurance.

Some dogs do better trotting along for 4-5km with plenty of sniff breaks, while others love stretching their legs for 8-10km straight! 🏃‍♂️

Not sure if your dog should jog? Chat with your vet or try our dog walks – your furry friend will be just as happy!

We've been asked, "So... do lazy people use your services?" ⁣⁠

Ummmm, no!⁣⁠

Some of the most dedicated pet parents in Edmonton and the surrounding area use our services!⁣⁠

Our clients work long hours to provide the best care for their pets. From nurses, doctors, EMS, and police to those recovering from surgeries, elderly folks, and professionals with long commutes – they all have one thing in common: They love their pets and want the best for them.⁣⁠

Our clients are far from lazy. They’re committed to the well-being of their furbabies, and we’re here to help make that happen!⁣⁠

BUT If you are feeling lazy one day there is NO harm in booking a dog walk or jog for your dog so you can look after yourself ❤

We welcomed some new furry friends!! 🥰

Hunter the german shepherd is joining us for some good ol' dog jogs to help keep this young handsome boy busy on those long workdays.

Daisy the labradoodle is joining us 2x a week for a 30 minute walk and a dog jog to help her parents out when they can't fit her exercise in.

Stevie Nicks, the adorable kitty! Mom, who travels for work, reached out when her kitty sitter fell through. Stevie is a pretty self-suffecient cat , but LOVES attention and gets sad and lonely without visits!

Our team of Dog Joggers is more than happy to assist you with your furbaby!

Both Steph and I got really sick, and tested positive for covid a few weeks ago. One feverish night, I found myself panicking about who would take care of Dog Jogs if we couldn't.

When we started Dog Jogs, it was just Steph and me. We didn’t have backup staff, and in nearly 8 years, we've only ever canceled on a client once. It was a tough decision, but I was so ill with the flu that I couldn’t leave my bed for three days. That stressful experience made us realize that things had to change.

So, we started building our team with the goal of having anyone at Dog Jogs able to fill in for any service. The transition wasn’t easy—some clients missed the personal touch of just Steph and me—but many were thrilled to see us growing and offering more reliable care.

Fast forward to today, we’ve never canceled on a client since adding team members. Even when sickness, family emergencies, or accidents happen (like Steph’s rollover accident 1.5 years ago), our business runs smoothly. If you have services with us you'll know that we might have to push your dogs walk or cat's visit back a bit if something happens with a staff member, but we will always show up!
Our promise at Dog Jogs is to always provide reliable pet care, no matter what.

What about you? Have you had reliable pet care since getting your furry friend? Share your favourite thing about your pet care provider, even if it’s not Dog Jogs—we’d love to hear your stories! 🐾

P.S. Interested in reliable pet care for your furbabies but not sure where to start? Book a consult with us today!

Shout out to one of our newest team members Shawna! 🐶💪

During a visit, Shawna discovered that the handsome Murphy had done quite a number on his paw—it was red, raw, and clearly irritated from licking. Further inspection showed his leg was red too, and Murphy seemed quite bothered by it.

Shawna immediately let Murphy's mom know and asked if there was anything she could do before mom got home. Thankfully, Murphy’s mom had some steroid cream at home and asked Shawna to apply it before she left after the service. She planned to get him to the vet ASAP.

Later that evening, Murphy's mom messaged us to say the steroid cream had helped until she could get him to the vet. Murphy's now on medication, and we've got a plan in place to support him while he's healing.

Is your pup in need of some extra care and attention? Contact us to see how we can help!

What does 5 years of jogging with Dog Jogs look like?

It looks like Drax the Springerdoodle! 🐶✨

We've been running with the adorable Drax for almost 5 years now (coming up this September!). Helping his family over the years has been an absolute joy. From providing them with some extra time to ensuring Drax gets extra attention and exercise, it's been a wonderful journey. Drax’s wagging tail and happy paws are what Dog Jogs is all about!

Sure, cats are *so* independent... until the feeder goes on strike, the litter box stages a rebellion, and the water fountain dries up.

That's why our clients swear by our Cat Pawty Breaks – and honestly, can you blame them? 🐾✨

How do we keep your feline overlords happy and content? By customizing our services to cater to their royal needs, of course. Your peace of mind and their well-being is our top priority! 😺

Tell me, what does your feline friend need while you’re away?

☀️ warmer weather is here and so are the pesky parasites! Fleas, ticks, and lice are absolutely thriving in the warm weather. We recommend checking in with your vet (if you haven't already) to chat about the most effective/relevant parasite prevention methods best suited for your pets.

Not sure how to spot these little party crashers? No worries, we've got your back! Our Walks 'N Wags Pet First Aid Course has you covered on all things parasites and pet emergencies. Next classes are in September 2024 and November 2024.

We're also happy to announce that Nik and Steph just recently completed their instructing certification for Off The Grid (OTG). OTG is an extension of Pet First Aid basics, focusing on emergency pet care in those remote, off-the-beaten-path scenarios. 🌲🐶

Whether you're new around here or have been following Dog Jogs for a while you probably have met or heard about Reina

Reina is our amazing Office Manager and Head Dog Trainer at Dog Jogs! 🌟 With a diploma in Hospitality Management and Canine Behavior Science and Technology, she's truly our dog guru and customer service extraordinaire!

Reina's heart belongs to her furry friends! One of her favourite memories? Watching her dog, Ryder, discover the pure joy of playing in a lake for the first time.

She's a powerhouse of energy, fueled by coffee and her trusty to-do lists. ✨ When she's not helping your pets thrive, Reina dreams of running through the scenic landscapes of the UK, Ireland, and New Zealand. 🏃‍♀️🌍 And if you want to make her smile, just bring her a Caramilk chocolate bar. 🍫

Reina's dedication and love for animals make her an invaluable part of our team! We've loved watching her grow over the 6+ years she's been working at Dog Jogs and love hearing how she's helped you and your pets out.

Has Reina helped you? We'd love for you to tell us about it 👇

Why you should find a pet care provider before you need one?!

We've visited Maddy, Neikka, and Bella before when their parents go on vacation, but their mom recently had surgery that ended up being more extensive than they thought going in.

Although she is home with the pups while she recovers, she isn't able to let them out for their normal daily mid-day break. Dad called us while Mom was still in the hospital to see if our team could help out M-F during our lunchtime block for the next 3-4 weeks and you know what, we absolutely could!

They already had their account with us set up so it was easy peasy to get the girls into the schedule!

Whether you need dog walks, cat sitting, dog boarding or any type of pet care- don't wait to find help!

Rain or shine, Dog Jogs is here to keep your furry friends active and happy! ☔🐕

We know some pups love a rainy adventure while others prefer staying dry, so we always pay close attention to their enjoyment.

Rest assured, we'll towel them off after rainy walks to keep them cozy for the rest of the day.

We love providing this service, (plus we offer 30 and 60 min dog walks so you've got options!) and we love that our clients (human and furry) get so much out of it.

What's one of the most common injuries dogs experience in springtime?!

Ligament injuries, sprains, and strains!

If a dog has been sedentary all winter, their muscles will be considerably weaker, and that means there is a much higher risk they will tear something when they start running around the park for the first time in a while.

If you're just getting back into a regular walking routine, remember to start slow and be consistent!

We wouldn't just head out the door to run 10k without training, nor should your dog! Need a hand easing your dog back into their walking or jogging routine?
Dog Jogs is accepting new clients!

Hey, did you know that cats are secretly big softies? Despite their "too cool for school" facade, they actually crave attention and can get pretty lonely when left alone for too long. Picture this: your cat, binge-watching sad movies and eating ice cream straight from the tub because they miss you! 😿

But fear not! There's a super easy solution: hiring a pet sitter. Seriously, it's a game-changer. When you're off on your weekend adventures or soaking up the sun on a beach somewhere.

Now, here's the best part: We Dog Jogs offer cat sitting services too! They're not just for the pups; we've got your feline friend covered too. So, next time you're planning a trip or just need someone reliable to give your kitty some TLC, give us a call!

We love a good transformation story so today, we're sharing 3 "before and after" stories of some of our amazing clients!

Meet Allie & Olive!

We started out helping their parents with 3 of their elderly sisters who have since passed on (we miss you golden girls) We have been lucky to continue to help as their family grew again, first with Allie, and then again with Olive. We started both gals out with p*e breaks when they first came home, and as they have grown, they've transitioned to walks!

Next, meet Jagger who loves to get out and move! Her mom had a dog walker for Jag, but she sadly didn't know if the walker was even showing up to take Jag out! Mom has been loving receiving our updates after every visit that include a written update of what went on, pictures and seeing how far Jag went on her jog!

Lastly, there's Leon! We get to see this cute 5 days a week for Paw-ty breaks, it is tough having puppy who needs to get out for more potty breaks and needs lunch when both your parents work. He is so happy to meet every Jogger who shows up to play with him, plus less messes in the house since he gets out mid-day!

Inspiring, right!?
Whether you need sporadic or regular walks our team is ready to help! book a consult today to have any questions you have answered!

Sydney is an adorable rescue pup who's a bit strong for her mom and shhh, don't tell her but, a little overweight. She's doing some training with In-sync dog training but they recommend she get some more exercise in so she's signed up for an hour walk each week with us.

Gigi is deaf, and has cataracts so she's experiencing some loss of vision. Her family is on vacation and has someone caring for her but we're helping with her walks. We take our time to make sure she knows we're there and when out on walks since she has a hard time seeing.

Rocket who can be a little fearful especially when being touched near his neck did SOOO well on his first visit! We started with a walk but he's going to try our our jogs next!

Can't wait to see these adorable furry faces more- welcome to the fam!

There are no shortcuts when it comes to quality service; the only way to accomplish our goal is with a real commitment from every member of the Dog Jogs team. The English poet John Donne wrote, “No man is an island.” We believe each employee contributes to the success and growth of the company, and our values and beliefs require that, individually and collectively, we:


  • Provide consistent leadership and coaching.

  • Encourage involvement in creative problem solving.
