Let's be honest, St. Louis pet parents – working from home seems like a dream come true for our four-legged friends. But is letting your pup out in the backyard between Zoom calls really enough? As professional dog walkers, we've seen how even WFH pups can benefit from structured walks and adventures! Here are seven tail-telling signs your furry coworker needs more than just quick potty breaks.

The Zoom Bomb Expert 💻
Is your pup constantly interrupting your video calls or pawing at your laptop? This attention-seeking behavior often means they're understimulated and craving more structured exercise. A midday walk with our professional dog walkers can help them settle down during your important meetings!
The Backyard Boredom Blues 😴
Sure, your yard might be pawsome, but if your dog is showing less enthusiasm about backyard time or just lying around, they're probably craving new sights, smells, and experiences. Our neighborhood walks provide the mental stimulation they need!
The Evening Energy Explosion 🎇
Does your usually calm pup turn into a furry tornado around 5 PM? This burst of pent-up energy often signals they need more exercise during the day. A structured walk can help maintain balanced energy levels throughout the day.
The Destructive Designer 🧦
Finding your favorite shoes redesigned by your pup? Destructive behavior often means they're looking for ways to release excess energy. Our adventure walks through Forest Park or Tower Grove can help channel that energy positively!
The Selective Listener 👂
Has your dog's response to commands become more "suggestions" than "orders"? Lack of structure and stimulation can lead to regression in training. Our professional walks incorporate basic training reinforcement to keep their minds sharp!
The Social Media Manager (AKA Window Barking) 📱
Is your dog constantly "commenting" on everything they see through the window? This could mean they're missing out on proper socialization. Our Adventure Walks to local dog parks provide safe, supervised social interaction with other furry friends!
The Weight Management Warrior ⚖️
Has working from home led to fewer structured walks and more treats? We get it – those puppy eyes are hard to resist! Regular professional walks can help maintain a healthy weight and establish a consistent exercise routine.
