A Dog Walker's goal is to ensure dogs enjoy regular exercise, loving companionship, and positive reinforcement.  Exercise through dog walks has huge mental and physical benefits for dogs as it increases serotonin, increases relaxation, keeps dogs in great shape, decreases problem barking, and provides them with mental stimulation as they sniff their surroundings.
