Love Aless! She is so amazing with my slightly hyper and anxious dog. She is great with communication if anything on either of our ends need to change. Archie love his walks, and I love the photos she posts of him.

What makes our pack walks different
Small groups, matched for a good social fit.
-
Carefully matched groups
Dogs are grouped by temperament, confidence, energy and play style.
-
Small, medium or gentle dogs
Pace, group size and play style are chosen for small, medium or gentle dogs.
-
The same Goodwalk walker, every week
A familiar walker gets to know your dog’s routine, behaviour and handling needs.
-
Eyes on every dog
Small groups mean we notice the little things early, from recall to a quiet day.
Getting started
Getting started with Goodwalk is simple. Here's how it works.
-
Phone call
We start with a friendly chat to learn about your dog, your routine, and what you're after.
-
Meet & greet
We come and say hello in person, so you and your pup can get to know us before anything's locked in.
-
Onboarding walks
A few settling-in walks let your dog get comfortable with us and their route, so regular walks feel like second nature.
Honest fit check
Are pack walks right for your dog?
Pack walks are a great fit if your dog:
- Is small or medium-sized
- Enjoys other dogs
- Can settle into a new environment
- Has settled basic on-lead manners
- Shows emerging recall or willingness to respond
- Is up to date on vaccinations and Auckland Council registration
A pack walk is not the right fit if your dog:
- Is reactive on the lead
- Is anxious in groups of dogs
- Becomes overwhelmed by busy social environments
- Is significantly larger than a typical pack member
- Is recovering from injury or surgery
- Needs a slower, steadier pace
Dogs do not need to arrive perfect or fully off-leash ready. They do need to be suitable for a structured, supportive environment. Goodwalk only runs pack walks and puppy visits, so if a group is not right for your dog we will tell you honestly rather than place them anyway.
Why owners choose our pack walks
Happier dogs. Calmer evenings. A routine that feels easier to trust and easier to keep.

GoodWalk was the best dog walking service for my little pooch ! Aless was very helpful - basically doubled as a second mum to Monty. She always provided feedback on his outings and assisted where possible with any additional training that she felt he could work on and made recommendations where necessary which i feel is what every dog mum wants and needs!
Truly the best dog walker in Auckland! I feel so lucky to have found Aless and my little terrier Otis absolutely adores her. He enjoys his regular weekly walks and always comes back happy & tired. Love the updates on social media so I can see how my dog is enjoying his day! Aless makes logistics so easy too. Highly highly recommend, there’s a reason she has 5 stars!
Alessandra has been walking and spending time with my pup since she was 10 weeks old, coming over and doing puppy visits through to transitioning her to pack walks with her little doggo friends. I know Alassandra loves and cares for my dog as much as I do and my dog has a great time! Cant recommend enough

Common questions
Pack Walk FAQs
What Auckland owners ask before their dog joins a pack.
How much does a pack walk cost in Auckland?
Pack Walks start from $49.50 per walk on a 4–5 walks per week routine. Casual pack walks are $65 per walk. Pickup and drop-off across Auckland Central is included in every booking.
How big are the pack walks?
Pack walks are kept to small groups, matched by temperament, confidence, energy and play style.
What size and type of dog suits a pack walk?
Sociable small, medium or gentle dogs who enjoy other dogs, can settle into a new environment, and are suitable for a structured group setting. If your dog is reactive, anxious in groups, or much larger than the typical pack, a pack walk is not the right fit, and we will say so at the meet & greet.
How long is a pack walk and where do you go?
60 minutes on the ground, plus pickup and drop-off. We rotate Western Springs, Fowlds Park, Cornwall Park, Grey Lynn Park, and the Oakley Creek walkway, picked on the day for weather and group.
Is pickup and drop-off included?
Yes. Door-to-door pickup and drop-off is included across the Auckland Central suburbs we serve, including Mt Eden, Kingsland, Ponsonby, Grey Lynn, Sandringham and Mt Albert.
How does my dog join a pack?
Phone call, free meet & greet, then onboarding walks. That gives us time to assess fit properly, build confidence, and avoid rushing dogs into the wrong setup.
