At Carol’s dog walking service, each walk is priced at $20 for a half-hour session, with a minimum of two days per week.

Give your dog time to decompress and adjust to you and your home. Let them acclimate at their pace. Do not rush the process. Have patience and be consistent but most of all show them love.
