  • Adriana and the company make it so easy to get started and did a great job showing me the ropes.
  • If there was ever a problem in the field, they would always get back to me ASAP and help me out with any problems or give me the guidance I needed to solve it myself.
  • They have a lot of flexibility and all the latest apps and technology to make things easy.
  • They always had my back and also were amazing and understanding with my schedule as a mom.
  • There are great perks to the company as well, and they always provided me with the supplies I needed.

  • Fulfilling job.
  • Generous management.”   Pack Hiker and Dog Walker – Old Lyme, CT “Typical day consists of going into homes either to pick up dogs for a pack hike (my favorite part of the day) or walking around their neighborhood.
  • Yard let outs too, easy peasy.
  • I was initially introduced to SHP as a client when they cared for my daughter's puppy.
  • I am semi-retired and wanted to find a fulfilling job that helped me stay active.
  • I have to say I was impressed with their new hire training.
  • It taught me new things despite being a dog owner for decades.
  • Do keep in mind this is a real job and hard work, especially if weather does not collaborate.
  • However, management is always very on top of things making sure you and the dogs are safe.
  • They've also been very understanding with my time off requests and very generous with their performance bonus.” ⭐️ "LOVED this job!"   Dog Walker – Old Saybrook, CT “I loved working here.

  • I became very active and healthy from all the daily walking.
  • My team lead & Adriana are super nice and helpful.
