I used them when I had a job that took me away all day. Scout loved all of her walkers. I changed jobs and no longer need a dog walker but if and when I ever need a dog walker I would use them

Our walker Raysa was able to pop over when we were out of town, our 2 dogs liked her, and she texted us pics of them happily having supper. Would hire again.
