A note from Aless Alessandra, Goodwalk founder

A familiar routine for your dog. Clear routines, familiar handling and direct communication.

What owners can expect
  • A familiar walker at the door
  • Small group size
  • Photos and an update after the walk

We collect your dog, take them out for proper exercise and bring them home ready to settle.

Small groups are matched by temperament, confidence, energy and social fit. Puppies start with visits at home until they are ready to join a pack.

Pack walks give dogs the company of a well-matched group, steady exercise, and the social time that keeps them happy and settled.

Pickup and drop-off are included.

FAQs

Can any dog use your service?

We welcome small, medium, and gentle dogs who enjoy a bit of company on their walks. To keep our groups safe and happy, we don't take on any dog with a history of biting or aggressive behaviour.

How does payment work?

You'll receive an invoice on Tuesdays for the week.

Do you provide a casual service?

Yes, depending on availability.

What requirements does my dog need?

A current Auckland Council dog registration and up-to-date vaccinations.

Are all dogs off leash on pack walks?

No. We choose on-leash or off-leash handling based on each dog's recall, social behaviour, confidence, and surroundings.

Does my dog need perfect recall before starting?

No. Dogs do not need to arrive ready for off-leash walks. We work with each dog at the right pace and use the handling approach that keeps them comfortable and safe.

Do you have insurance or First Aid training?

Yes. Public liability insurance and current First Aid certificates, every walker, every walk.

Do I need to leave keys with you?

Leave us a key or a lockbox.

What happens if the weather is bad?

We walk in most conditions. If it is genuinely unsafe, heat, storms, flooding, we contact you to reschedule.

How do you train or handle the dogs?

We use positive reinforcement only, rewarding calm, confident behaviour rather than correcting with fear or force. It keeps every dog relaxed and builds trust with their walker over time.
