Ben was awesome! Great energy, very respectful, and honest. He deals with a lot of big dogs (Boxers, mostly) so trusting him with my Dane was easy! Will be using him again! read more

Ben (owner) and Jessica (walker) have been amazing with our pups! We've been using them for over a year now for mid-day walks and I am SO happy with their services. Prior to The Dog Walker, I used another dog walking service and it was just a horrible experience in so many ways. I have no complaints about Ben & his crew. Pros: - organized - respond quickly - flexible - leave time-stamped report cards - my pups love them! My dogs are very hesitant with strangers, but they immediately hit it off with Jessica and she's been so great with them. It's hard trusting your fur babies with just anyone, but I couldn't have asked for a better walker. I love her personalized messages as well. Even though we only do a 30 minutes walk a couple of times a week, you can tell Jessica knows our pups so well and loves them so much. Also, I like how flexible Ben is. I email him at the beginning of the week with the days I'd like to have Jessica come (my work schedule is different every week) and that's that! He then emails out an invoice at the end of the month and I Venmo him, super easy! (I believe he takes other forms of payment as well such as checks) I totally recommend Ben & his crew to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker! read more

Ben and his walkers have taken care of my Buckeye since he was 10 weeks old in 2007. I started with Ben when he was first beginning his business. Every walker has been reliable and great with Buckeye and our newer dog Chippy. They are always courteous and check the water bowl and now that Buckeye is a senior dog, they are mindful of taking him out in the heat for too long and will sit and pet him after a shorter walk instead. read more

Ben and his team are amazing! My German Shepherd loves Ben so much she can't control herself. He treats her as if she is his own. I also have a whippet that has social issues, but seeing Zelda around Ben and his team blows my mind she is happy as a clam. They are nice and sleepy when they get back from their adventures. 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

Ben, Melissa and their hired walkers are awesome! We usually board our pets (Rover Oaks) when we go away for the weekend, but we had a last minute jaunt to Dallas and decided to employ a walker instead. I was so happy to receive photo texts of my two dogs when Melissa came for the walks. I knew my dogs were happy and well taken care of. Upon my return, I found that Melissa had left little report cards for each dog that talked about what they did on their walks. So cute! They'll also take care of your trash, newspapers, plant watering, etc. so it appears that someone is home. They also do regular daily walks for those of you who can't make it home to let the pets out every day. read more

Our puppy Zane is very high energy and growing by the day so these mid-day walks are a godsend. The owner, Ben, is very easy to work with and understanding of our flexible schedules. Makayla -our walker- is very diligent about securing our home when the walk is over and leaving progress reports daily as well as working with him on commands and loose leash walking just as we do when we walk him. Their prices are competitive and everything is very transparent. I would highly recommend them and look forward to utilizing their other services in the future. read more

The Dog Walker Houston - Zane loves his walks! - Dog Walkers Near Me - Houston, Texas

This company has been a life saver. Ben and his staff have been walking my dog for two years now and I couldn't be more thankful for the high quality care they provide. The past year I have had two knee surgeries and attended several funerals where I had to cancel walks last minute, but they were always so understanding and helpful in any situation. Jess, Bleu's current walker, leaves the nicest notes summarizing his walks. I have also had several neighbors say Bleu looks extremely happy on his walks. Overall, I would give this company a hundred stars if I could. read more

Ben is the best, my dog loves him and he treats him like his own. I recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker, pet lover, and friend. read more

We had a great experience with this company. Ben managed all our requests and was able to schedule the same walker to visit our new pup twice a day. They also took our training into consideration and handled our puppy the way we requested during the visits. Would use again and recommend to others! read more

This is one of if not the best locally owned dog walking company around. Ben Louis the company's owner is professional, kind and it's easy to see he loves what he does! The prices are fantastic all the employees are efficient and help us with additional requests. The dog walker has been a trusted partner for me and my dog Zooey. Thanks Ben! read more

I can't say enough good things about Ben, the owner, and Derek, our walker. This is less expensive than driving to doggie daycare and way more convenient. Payment options are great and it's incredibly flexible. My dog is happy and my guilt is eased. I enjoy coming home to the little report at the end of the day. They really understand my dog's limits with the heat and a previous injury. I'm not sure I could manage without this service. read more

Advise using someone else. They didn't have a formal system to handle booking or canceling appointments or transmitting dog walking instructions, didn't have good records for keeping track of invoices and the details of the walks for preparing invoices, and were very disorganized and forgetful. I got invoices that were wrong multiple times so you have to keep track of the walks yourself. The walkers seemed more like independent contractors than employees in that the company cannot assure the quality of the walkers or the walks. The walkers also are at capacity a lot and so you sometimes have to make other dog walking arrangements when their walkers are too busy. read more

I've used this company several times in the three years that I've had my dog. Ben and his team are excellent. My dog loves them and is completely exhausted after a session. They've even been able to work us into their schedule when I've need someone at the last minute. Completely trustworthy, reliable, and professional (the daily report cards are so helpful - and cute), I recommend them any time I have a friend who needs a dog walker. I've just moved out of state and I hope that I can find a service that is as awesome as this one. read more

Ben and his walkers are fantastic! We have used The Dog Walker for the last 2 years and have appreciated the reassurance that our dogs are being taken care of by competent, loving dog walkers. Our 2 dogs are large breeds and young/highly energetic and our walkers have done a wonderful job with them. I like that they leave detailed progress reports so I know exactly when they came and any highlights from the walk. More importantly, the notes they leave confirm that Ben hires passionate dog lovers, which is important to us. Additionally, Ben is extremely responsive and has accommodated last minute requests for us - for example, I recently had a baby and am very appreciative that I was able to text Ben from the hospital to add extra walks that day to ensure my dogs were taken care of. Ben is easy to get in touch with via text, email or phone call and our monthly invoices have always been accurate. I love that Ben is on multiple payment platforms, I use Venmo which makes taking care of payments super convenient. Highly recommend Ben. read more

I can't say anything about their actual dog walking services. But I can say that I was not impressed with the phone conversation I had with the owner. I was interested in dog walks 5-7 days a week for 1 year. Sounds like pretty good business for them, right? Well, apparently he didn't think it was... Basically, this is the #1 ranked dog walking service in Houston right now which means he has no trouble finding customers, and therefore, didn't really take the time to earn my business. In fact, he gave me the number of another dog walker! I guess you could say that was nice of him to do that, but I left the conversation feeling like he didn't really care. I found several other dog walkers that were more than happy to take my business and treated me well! read more

The Dog Walker is a wonderful service! Derek and Megan are wonderful dog walkers and Derek has provided overnight care for my puppy. I have a hectic travel schedule and Ben, the owner, is always flexible and accommodating. I trust everyone at the Dog Walker --- it's been a great experience for me and my puppy! read more

AMAZING!! Ben's team is awesome!!! I moved to the heights 2 years ago and met Ben and his team. They love animals and took the time to get to know my puggles. The report cards left each day reference the personalities of my furbabies so I know they take the time to get to know them. I can tell my dogs are happier when they are walked by anyone on Ben's team. Completely trustworthy in your home and your pets! read more

Ben has been walking my dog for about 4 months now, and we are so pleased that we found him. Our pampered pooch loves him (being a rescue she has some hang ups with some men) and he is patient and playful with her when she is slow in the hot summer and willing to spend the time with her when she needs a little longer to do her business. We recommended Ben to someone else in our building who we know is having success, and I would recommend him/his company to anyone who is looking for a dog walker. read more

I called the company's primary phone number last Thursday and left a message asking the company to return my call. I also filled out a Quick Service Form on their website, since I didn't know whether phone or web was the best way to reach them. On Monday, I followed up with another phone call since I had not heard from them. It's now been one week and I haven't received return phone call or a response to the web form I submitted. Has anyone else had this experience? Is this company currently not accepting new customers? Common courtesy and certainly good business practice would dictate a return phone call, regardless of the situation. read more
