Our Philosophy
Venice Dog Walkers
Welcome to Venice Dog Walkers! We are honored to be able to care for your trusted friend and hope to add joy to their day. We want you to think of us as your long-term pup partner. Venice Dog Walkers offers you peace of mind while you and your pup are apart, and we treat your pet like our own family.
As lifelong dog owners, we have seen the benefits of regular activity on our dogs. Professional dog trainers advise that 30 minutes of exercise a day is vital to keep a pup’s mind and body optimally functioning. We have always believed this and have found it to be true. Our goal here at Venice Dog Walkers is to make your pup happy as well as contribute to their long, healthy life.
About Us
Professional, Insured, Bonded.
Venice Dog Walkers is a professional, insured and bonded dog sitting and dog walking service. Our walkers/sitters are thoroughly background-checked for your security. We are pet CPR and First Aid certified and regularly take continuing education courses. While there may be other affordable options in pet care such as asking a teenager or using a kennel, we feel that most owners want the best loving care for their canine family when they are apart.

Barkimonials
At Venice Dog Walkers, our pet sitters and dog walkers know your pet is part of your family. We treat every pet as one of our own, and strive to provide reliable, personalized, loving care that is second to none.
We have a lot of “bark-raving” fans who have this to say:
“We signed up for daily lunch walks for Jack and never realized how much he would enjoy this. He has a lot of energy so Kathy suggested maybe a jog would be beneficial. She is very sensitive to the outside temperature and mentioned that at our initial meeting. At Noontime Jack waits by the door for Kathy to arrive and he returns from his runs very happy and exhausted!”
“I am so happy to have found Venice Dog Walkers. I had been bothering friends and neighbors but now I know I can just make a quick call and get reliable, professional care for my puppy.”
“A friend referred me to Venice Dog Walkers while I was recovering from knee surgery. I wish I had known of this service years ago! My dog is happy and tired each evening and I don’t have to worry about any more destructive behaviors. I guess he had been bored with me!”
