FirstBarkWe are so grateful to the Off Collar team for helping take care of our dog! Sandi, our walker, was always prompt, friendly, and so patient with our dog Ivy, who is sometimes scared and anxious. She sent detailed updates after every walk, including photos, and you could just see how happy Ivy was with her. We trust her completely and can't wait to book more walks in the future!

My wife and I are happy we found Lauren and Off Collar. Our Great Pyrenees was impossible to walk, constantly barking at other dogs. Enter Lauren and within a short period of time, our dog was walking by our side, not barking and listening to commands. What a wonderful trainer and walker. Thank you Lauren, we couldn’t have done it without you!!!
Lauren has been great with Karma (dog) and his parents (us). We are learning a lot in such a short amount of time and have already seen a positive difference.
I love Off Collar! Lauren has been amazing in coordinating and supporting my senior pup! Alyzah, my pup’s wonderful walker, is so good with him and keeps me informed if she notices anything out of the ordinary. They’ve both been very helpful in allaying my fears after a bad experience with another company! Can’t say enough good thing about Off Collar!

We (and our pets) love Off Collar! Lauren, Katherine, and Alyzah are so sweet with our babies. It is hard to find someone to trust with a Great Dane. They are big animals but also very sensitive and require a gentle but firm touch. Our boy is always so excited to get walked by any of them, and we’re glad to have people we can rely on to give him some company midday. Katherine also takes care of our two kittens when we are away for vacation. They are very shy, but last month, they finally came out to say hi to her, so they must have decided in the end they like her after all :) Off Collar is also very understanding of emergencies and flexible, which is hugely helpful because we have variable schedules each month.
