What makes our pack walks different

Groups of 4–8 dogs, matched for a good social fit.

  • Carefully matched groups

    Dogs are grouped by temperament, confidence, energy and play style.

  • Small & medium dogs only

    Pace, group size and play style are chosen for small and medium 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.

How joining works

Meet, assess, then confirm a weekly slot.

  1. Free Meet & Greet

    A Goodwalk walker comes to your home, meets your dog, and talks honestly about whether the pack suits them.

  2. Two assessment walks

    Your dog settles in gently while we confirm the right group, pace, and handling.

  3. Your weekly slot

    A regular spot with the same little crew and the same walker, week in, week out.

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

Better with a solo walk 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, and we will be straight with you about the fit.

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?

Each walk has 4 to 8 dogs, matched by temperament, confidence, energy and play style.

What size and type of dog suits a pack walk?

Sociable small and medium 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 solo walk is the better fit, and we will say so at the Meet & Greet.

How long is a pack walk and where do you go?

60 to 75 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?

Free Meet & Greet at home, then two assessment walks before a regular slot. That gives us time to assess fit properly, build confidence, and avoid rushing dogs into the wrong setup.
