YOUR TRUSTED TORONTO
DOG WALKING, CAT SITTING AND PET SERVICES
Urban Tail is more than just a Toronto dog walking service. We’re right up there with doggy runs and fire hydrants, when it comes to lifestyle must-haves for Toronto dogs. From the moment you contact us, we find out everything there is to know about the routine that you and your dog are used to. After that, we’re all about fun and exercise, good health, proper stimulation and reinforcing good habits.
Whether you’ve got a puppy or a wise old pooch, we set up a program that works best for both you and your dog. How do we do it? We don’t just talk – we listen. A great walker knows your dog’s personality and quirks, the places he likes to go and the places he doesn’t. That’s what our initial consultation is all about. Once you get started, our daily Pup Reports are the perfect way to stay in touch. You’ll get the latest and greatest on your furry friend: how close he came to catching that infamous squirrel, or news of that giant tree branch she tried to bring home as a present. We’ll also update you with daily pic postings on our Facebook page.

DOG WALKING IN TORONTO
Urban Tail dogs don’t just go for walks, they go for adventures.
Urban Tail offers professional, on leash, dog walking adventures in downtown Toronto including City Place, Harbourfront, Entertainment District & King West, Fort York & East Bayfront to name a few.
Our walkers will pick up your anxiously awaiting pooch and trot them off the nearest designated off leash park or trek around the city, investigating every fire hydrant, tree and enjoy watching that infamous squirrell scatter up a tree. They will look forward to meeting new and exciting friends in their small structured group, based on their temperament, age and agility. We offer small groups of no more than 5 dogs, usually 3-4 dogs, to ensure they receive the proper personalized attention they deserve, while being safely secured to our walkers.
At the end of each walk, we will send you video updates and or photos, via text, to let you know what your fur baby was up to and how much fun they had on their adventure!
You will have peace of mind, knowing that you will always have the same walker and that we are always reliable and flexible and truly dedicated to putting you and your furry family member our top priority always. Pinky Paw Promise!
We live right in our service area, so most likely you have seen myself or our other walkers, with their pups in the park. If not, then we hope to meet you soon!

PUPPY & DOG VISITS
Whether it be your new furry bundle of joy or your old faithful best friend. We have you and your family member’s needs covered pawfectly!
When you can’t be there, we will come by to play with, feed and to maintain their potty routine. These visits mean your puppy or dog won’t feel alone and afraid and will have all of their needs met with lots of play and cuddling. Puppy visits facilitate their potty training, as we will take them out to relieve themselves, so they learn to go potty on the grass and not in the house.
As your puppy gets a little older we can teach them how to walk on leash and we will maintain any rules and training methods you are currently using. We only use positive and reward-based training methods. Playtime is important as you will want your puppy to get some exercise so they will be tired out and have a nap, rather than being worried about where you are all day. During these early weeks they will likely still be having a lunch as they are growing. We’ll make sure they have their lunch and take them out again to do their business. The visit lasts for 30 minutes and can be booked for anytime during our regular walking hours. We also send daily detailed notes with cute photos and videos of your puppy having fun and getting lots of love.
CAT SITTING IN TORONTO
We will cater our cat sitting visits to your pets’ desires.
we can brush, cuddle, play with, or just plain hang out with them on our visits.
Urban Tail has years of experience providing in-home cat sitting visits and pet sitting visits for other animals including Avians, Reptiles, Fish (Marine & freshwater) & other small creatures. Our sitters will visit your home daily to give your pets the love and attention they deserve in your absence. In home sitting reduces your pets’ stress while you are away and allows them to hang out in their favourite haunts, eat familiar food, play with their same toys. They also receive special one on one attention that only a loving pet sitter can provide.
When pet sitting, your home will also be well cared for in your absence. Each day our pet sitters will perform a security check of your doors and windows and ensure you have not had pipes burst, water leaks etc. This is an advantage to you, since many home insurance policies require regular visits while you are gone.
The pet sitter will also collect mail and newspapers, change around lights and blinds, ensure courier packages are held, and we even water plants! Rest assured, your home will be in fine form upon your return.
Our cat sitting locations include: Downtown Toronto, King Street West, Queen Street West, Harbourfront, CityPlace and Fort York.
Please note* We drive logo-free vehicles. This maintains your privacy, and reduces the possibility of a break-in during your absence.

Testimonials
Happy Faces
When we adopted Otis from a pet rescue, we were delighted with our puppy but” distressed by his separation anxiety. Integrating him into our home was not going to be easy. We quickly decided that we needed to get Otis a dog walker. Lori became our doggy saviour, visiting Otis each and every day and taking him out on the town. Completely reliable, totally trust worthy, and absolutely loved by our puppy we couldn’t have found a more caring or dedicated professional. Each day she would leave a little note for us telling us about how Otis was that day. Slowly and surely, Otis outgrew his separation anxiety in part because he always had his daily walk with Lori to look forward to. While we are happy to be moving from our condo to a new house, we are so sad to be leaving Lori’s area. Otis is going to miss her daily walks and we will miss her commitment to our family. She has cared for Otis as if he was her very own dog.
Aimee & Otis
Lori has instantly become an extension of our family! I’m not sure what I would do without the services of Urban Tail. As a young professional with a busy work life, it feels refreshing to know that Lori is trustworthy, honest, and committed to my dog’s well-being. She is always a phone call or text away to lend a hand with, in essence, the healthy upbringing of my treasure! From a young age, Charlotte has had the pleasure of being surrounded by the care, consideration, and love of Lori .Not only is it comforting to know that Charlotte is with Lori, but her personal charisma and charm make her a treat to work with. Anyone who has a dog, I only have one recommendation – take advantage of one of the best, hidden secrets in Toronto! Urban Tail.
