Many veterinarians and pet experts believe that keeping pets in their familiar surroundings helps to alleviate the stress imposed when their owners have to leave home. Pets are then also able to maintain their diet and exercise routine and enjoy the personal attention provided by a professional dog walker. This also eliminates the trauma of being transported and minimizes their exposure to illnesses of other animals.

All are welcome to call or email the office with their questions. The office number is 914-330-3638 and the email is whileawaydogwalking@gmail.com. When they’re ready to get started we have a very simple registration process that will be explained to them. We can get started as soon as the registration meeting has taken place.

The registration meeting is a visit that allows the client to get to know our service's prior to the start of their service. During this visit we will decide which walker is a good fit , confirm and review the pertinent information about the home and pet care routine (e.g. vet information, emergency contact, special requests, etc.), and answer any additional questions the client may have. We do NOT provide service until this meeting has taken place.

Time To Pet is a mobile application and companion app fro While Away Dog Walking. Clients can use the app to view and send messages, update their profile and review and request services. While Away Dog Walking uses the app to access important client/pet info and so we can send clients reports and pictures after completing a service!

We ask that all clients set up their account prior to the meet and greet so that we can discuss primary, secondary and emergency contact information as well as veterinary info too. This saves valuable time in getting all that is needed so that the Meet and Greet can focus on the pets.

We prefer ACH transfers and credit cards directly through our software system. We do not accept cash.
