We provide a level of accountability an individual walker can not.

- Why do you charge sales tax?
Unfortunately NY State considers our pets 'property' so we are required by law to charge sales tax.
- Do I tip the walker?
It's not expected but occasionally some of our clients will leave a tip if the walker has
gone out of their way (like cleaning up an accident in your house).
And many clients leave tips at holiday time... these are much appreciated by the walkers.
