Ollie and Bear Dog Pros

Sarah is the best. She really loves dogs and it totally comes through in her interaction with them. She is really good with my lil guy and I would recommend her for any dog that likes hikes and adventures.

After I decided I shouldn’t bring my puppy to work with me every day, I looked into getting a dog walker to give my coworkers back some of their productivity. Turns out, finding Ollie and Bear was the absolutely best choice for a young puppy growing up in this city.
I see dog walkers all the time around town. They have 5 – 10 dogs clipped to their belt, walking around the block in a pack. Occasionally, a couple of dogs get in trouble and the whole pack concept kind of falls apart. Maybe you end up walking for 3 hours with the pack. Maybe your dog can’t keep up with the pack. Maybe you don’t want your dog to walk on concrete for 6 hours a week. Adventures with Ollie and Bear are far from this.
If you are on the fence, visualize this as the alternative. You, a busy professional, on the first free weekend you have in a month, would pack a day bag, rent a car, decide to drive to Marin, sit in traffic, have some awesome play time, sit in traffic again, get gas, return your car, turn on Netflix and cancel the rest of your plans for Saturday. Not that this is not an awesome day to spend with your dog, you probably do not have the time to do this very often. Sarah does this for you, with many other added bonuses like training and socialization, 2 – 3 times a week for ½ the cost of your Zipcar (not even counting for the cost of your time.)
Through these glorious adventures with Sarah, my stereotypically-​unfriendly-​breed puppy has:
— Learned about good recall and leash techniques
— Socialized extensively with other puppies and dogs with complementary temperaments
— Explored the actual world outside of the dirty city streets
— Been told many times «I can’t believe your Shiba is so loving and friendly!»
Sarah has also been a very valuable resource for me for basically everything having to do with raising a happy, well-​behaved dog.
Bonus: she will send adorable photos and videos to your phone like clockwork.

I work 50+ hours a week & so it’s very hard for me to get my dog the exercise & play she needs. My dog absolutely adores & genuinely looks forward to going on weekly adventures with Sarah & her team. I notice just how happy my dog is when I get home after she’s been out with Ollie & Bear Dog Pros. I feel great knowing she’s in the best care & having fun while I’m at work. I feel very blessed to have met & know Sarah. I know my dog adores her just as much, if not more. :)

Sarah is one of the most intuitive people I’ve met. She is able to understand and communicate with dogs in the most intelligent and constructive way.
I have been lucky enough to join Sarah on an adventure with her pack. She creates a wonderfully playful atmosphere where all the dogs have the confidence and security to really let loose and have some fun. Whenever there’s a potential distraction she gathers them all with ease and holds their attention until its safe to play again.
Sarah has so much genuine love and energy for every dog she meets.
Get in there before she gets too busy! Your dog with thank you.
