About Hillcrest Dog Co.

Neighbors first, dog walkers second.

Hillcrest Dog Co. started the way most good neighborhood businesses do — walking a few dogs for people down the street, then a few more. We’re still built the same way: a short client list, familiar routes, and dogs who recognize the sound of our footsteps before the doorbell even rings.

We work in a limited area within Hillcrest itself — not the whole neighborhood, and not the surrounding ones. That means no drive-time built into your rate, no walker juggling a route across town, and every dog walked solo or alongside its own housemates only.

How we work

What every client can count on

Group walks, kept to your household

A group walk here always means your own dogs, together. Your dog is never combined with another client's dog — it keeps every walk calmer and gives your dog our full attention.

Positive reinforcement, always

No shock collars, no prong collars, no exceptions — every dog is handled with patience, treats, and encouragement.

Insured, bonded, background-checked

You're trusting us with a key to your home and a leash to your dog. That trust is backed by real insurance, not just good intentions.

You always know how it went

A photo and a short note after every walk, visit, or overnight — sent to your phone, not buried in an app you have to remember to open.

One small area, done well

We keep our service area — a limited slice of Hillcrest — small enough to actually know every dog on our list, rather than spreading thin across the city.

Service area

Where we walk

A limited area within Hillcrest — we keep our client list small and hyper-local. We’re not covering all of Hillcrest yet, let alone the wider neighborhood — just a small, walkable section of it.
