True Employees

Our Skiptown walkers are part-time W-2 employees. Daily walk schedules are created by the operations team and are based on client demand.

User-friendly Technology

Walkers use our proprietary app to access daily schedule, visit information, and to document the visit through photos and creative visit reports for our clients.

Reliable Support

Skiptown has a unique operations team that is available throughout the day to support and assist with any issues our walkers encounter.

Training that Sets You up for Success

Our walkers receive over 10 hours of classroom and on-the-job training before performing their first solo visit so they can feel confident and prepared to meet all of the furry friends of Skiptown.
