You love your pet as much as most people love their kids.
So why does their whole day depend on whether you got out of a meeting on time?
Sound familiar?
Every morning, before you even open your laptop, there’s a calculation running in the back of your head.
You’re not being dramatic. Dogs kept inside for 8, 9, 10 hours a day show measurable behavioral changes within weeks. Increased cortisol. Disrupted sleep cycles. The kind of boredom that turns into destruction, or worse, into a dog who stops trusting that you’re coming back.
You already knew something was off. You just didn’t have a name for it yet.
That calculation ends today.
You’ve probably Googled "how long can a dog hold it" at least once.
The answer, by the way, is 4 to 6 hours for an adult dog.Not 8. Not 10. Four to six.
If you’re working a full day, your dog is past their limit before lunch. That’s not a guilt trip. It’s just physiology.
So lets do the math together.
Your day, planned

Real reviews from pet parents in Greater Lafayette, published just as they were written.
"This team of animal lovers are the best in the Midwest! My dogs are obsessed. My cats normally don't go up to strangers, but they loved them, too! WYD staff are so respectful of my home and take care of my babies so well. I can’t possibly recommend them enough."
“I was so impressed with the professionalism and genuine attention to the needs of our pet. From the initial meeting to get to know our cat, to the updates, I cannot sing their praises enough! I highly recommend Walk Your Doggo to ALL pet parents!”
“We absolutely LOVE walk your doggo!!! They are professional and personable. I can trust them to take care of my pets' needs while updating me on everything that happens. Like photos, videos and messages! TEN out of TEN Recommend ❤️”
"Such a wonderful and easy service! As someone who works full time, this just made sense for my 4 doggies! They came to my home while at work, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated. Alyssa is very communicative!"
"They truly love the furkids and want to give them the exceptional care they deserve and you want your furkids to receive. I cannot express enough how truly blessed we are to have Alyssa and the team at Walk Your Doggo!! They are phenomenal!"
"WYD is just what I’ve been looking for. My dog is Border Collie and Australian Shepherd. He is very cautious of new people. WYD understands that, gives him space, is allowing him the time he needs to get comfortable. Rebel gives Alyssa an A+ for playing his favorite game!"
"We recently moved to the area and didn't know anyone to watch our cats when we we needed to go out of town. Alyssa and the team were great and reasonably priced. Scheduling and payments online are super easy, and every interaction we've had has been positive!"
"Walk Your Doggo is always helpful, nice, very easy to book, and flexible on walking days and times. The staff is also well trained which helps with reinforcing good walking behaviors while training my dog how to walk with a leash."
"I am so fortunate to have found Walk your Doggo!! The staff are amazing with my dog and always leave the sweetest reports! Their communication and compassion make them someone I can trust to care for my dog as if she were their own."
"We're a complicated pet family with dogs (young and old, big and small) and cats and the WYD team were able to make sure they had everything they needed AND kept us up to date with pictures and check-ins. So grateful to have found them and we recommend them highly!"

Mostly dogs. But we care for cats, turtles, and whatever creature has decided to run your household. No overnight stays. Just consistent, professional visits from people who actually know what they're doing.
Every Walk Your Doggo visit is staffed by a background-checked, first-aid-certified caretaker on a recurring route. The Wedding Pet Attendant Service is a separate, planner-led team.
Your dog doesn't need a “fun experience.” They need a consistent, reliable person who shows up, knows their name, reads their body language, and gets them real exercise. That's what this is. 15-minute and 30-minute options. GPS-tracked. Report card after every walk.
From $18/visit.
You're going to Indianapolis for four days. Your cat needs to be fed. Your turtle needs attention. Your dog needs someone to break up the day. We come to you. 30-, 45-, or 60-minute visits, multiple times per day if needed. Feeding, fresh water, some solid playtime, and a photo update so you're not refreshing your phone every 20 minutes poolside. No overnight pet sitting. Just reliable, scheduled visits while you're away.
From $37/visit
We visit, feed, refresh water, do a quick health check, and leave your home exactly as we found it. We can also scoop litter boxes and offer litter box deep cleanings. Our team is always available for whatever your pet service needs may be.
From $37/visit
Every new service starts the same way: create your free and secure Time To Pet account, our team reaches out (usually within 1 hour but no more than 1 day), and you finish onboarding together to secure your spot.
Your dog's day is planned with you and handled by one dedicated attendant: ceremony participation, transportation, supervision at the venue, photography handoffs, and a safe return to you or your pet's care afterward. Each event is planned collaboratively around your date and venue — share the details in the inquiry form below and the team takes it from there.
Share your event details below. Our team reviews every inquiry and reaches out within 24 hours to coordinate your custom wedding pet attendant package.
Every plan is straight-forward pricing with no hidden fees.
Pricing helps you plan. New clients create their Time To Pet account first — then the team helps finalize the care schedule with you.

Available on ongoing weekly services across all five service towns. Mention it when the team reaches out.
All services include GPS tracking, detailed post-visit report cards, and access to your free and secure Time To Pet client portal. We're fully insured and bonded. Everyone on our team is background-checked and Pet CPR/First Aid Certified. Communicate with your pet caretaker directly with fast response time. You're talking with a real caretaker from our small local team — never a bot or a call center.
Account first, onboarding second, care after that. Every new client follows the same path through Time To Pet.
Takes about 4 minutes. This is your portal for everything: scheduling, notes, invoices, updates, GPS reports. It lives on your phone. You'll wonder how you managed without it.
New clients only — existing clients log in instead.
Not just their name and breed. We want to know the quirks. The triggers. The things that make your specific animal tick. This is how we show up like we've known them for years.
Your schedule and visit reports live in your account.
Not “within a few business days.” One hour when possible — always within 24. A real person contacts you to confirm your plan, answer questions, and schedule your meet and greet (required for all new clients) and first service.
GPS tracking on every walk. A photo and report card when they're done.
Same walker on a recurring route — they learn your dog's pace and quirks.
Why clients stay
Consistency is the whole point. Recurring weekly routes mean your dog isn't meeting a new stranger in uniform every visit — the person who walks them learns their pace, their quirks, and the route they like. That's the difference between professional care and a marketplace pickup.

Example walk report
While you're out, your walker tracks the route by GPS and sends photo check-ins — so you see the walk your dog actually got, not just a timestamp. Reports appear in your Time To Pet account.
The report shown here is an example — a sample of the format, not live tracking data.

Our story
Walk Your Doggo started in Lafayette in 2022 and has grown into a locally owned team that walks, sits, and shows up on a schedule. The 2024 rebrand sharpened one commitment: train our caretakers past the industry's bare minimum, keep them on the same route, and give clients a familiar face instead of a rotating cast. That's why a Walk Your Doggo client sees the same familiar faces, week after week.
The people behind Walk Your Doggo are bonded, insured, first-aid and CPR trained.

An ordained and licensed chaplain and a new dad, Jason knows that showing up with patience, care, and consistency makes all the difference.
Alyssa
Director of Sales and Content
Alyssa co-founded Walk Your Doggo with her husband, Jason, in 2022, after losing their dog, Angel. A journalism grad with 10 years at a magazine, she’s the voice behind our content and the first friendly reply when you sign up. After owning and working with anxious dogs, she built WYD around one promise: the same familiar face for your pet every week. Because consistency equals calm. At home: mom, thrift-store junkie, and always on the lookout for the next furry family member.
