Jessica is a caring and responsible…

Jessica is a caring and responsible person who loves dogs. She gave my dog the same affection as her own. She also has a lot of experience watching different types of breeds and sizes. Her roomy house and big yard is the perfect set up for dogs.

Reply from Wag!2026-07-06

Thank you for your kind review, Anita! It sounds like Jessica has been a great match—her experience with a broad variety of dogs gives both you and your pup peace of mind. And her roomy home and yard sound like a fabulous staycation for any pup! It's clear from what you say that she puts her heart into her work and treats every dog like family. Wishing your pup many more happy stays with Jessica!

What a scam

What a scam. Background check 19.99 ... But then "due to high volume it's gonna take a few weeks, but if you pay us 120$ you can skip the line. Federal Consumer Protection needs to sue the hell outta you grifters.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. Wag takes a large cut of the fee for themselves and still reflects the full price on the customer. Walkers get a small percentage of the fee. You would hope to have decent customer service as a result but that is not the case with Wag.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. We contacted Wag multiple times during a stressful situation involving our pet and never received a response to bring support. Being ignored when you need help the most is unacceptable.

Great experience with walks and daycare.

I’m a few weeks into using this app. So far, it has been a great experience. My 7 month old lab is…well a crazy lab pup. She has so much energy and no idea how big she is. I love that their profiles show that they specialize in specific things such as dogs who pull, young dogs, old dogs, dogs who require meds, etc. I am so thankful to the group that I have used so far. I’d like to specifically say that Lexi was a life saver. I had a work meeting and was running super behind. She had already agreed to take Remi for the day, but she really went above and beyond to help so that I was able to get to my meeting on time. Thank you so much! 😊 ❤️🐕‍🦺

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you, Andy, for taking the time to share this! It's clear Wag! has been a good fit for walks and daycare alike in the few weeks you've been using it, especially with a high-energy lab pup like Remi to keep up with. We're glad the specialty profiles have helped you find the right Caregivers for what Remi needs—matching her with someone equipped for her energy is what good pet care should look like. It also sounds like Lexi really came through for you when your schedule got tight—be sure to add her to your Preferred Caregivers (tap the heart on her profile) for easy rebooking! We look forward to continuing to support you and Remi!

The dog walkers themselves are fine

The dog walkers themselves are fine. It's the company itself that's a nightmare. The company structure is off base... no source for getting direct help and their mobile ap is a tangled mess. It's the company that's a mess.. not the dog walkers or caregivers. There are far better services! Do not waste your money with WAG! Plus lots of hidden fees and surprises and subscription service even when you quit it. Be very careful!

I have the most amazing dog walker

I have the most amazing dog walker. I have 2 3year old pugs and they adore Keveon. Keveon truly cares about my babies and puts my mind at ease knowing when I can’t be there for them Keveon is.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you for your kind review, Audrey! We love hearing about the rapport Keveon has built with you and your pugs—someone who clearly cares about them deeply and gives you peace of mind when you can't be there yourself. We look forward to continuing to support you and your pups!

This website is the most unprofessional…

This website is the most unprofessional dog walking company. They have perverted clients sending pornographic photos to their dog walkers, and unjustly terminates their dog walkers with great reviews.

I had this lady name Kathy from Bush…

I had this lady name Kathy from Bush Garden who confirmed to take care of my dog and yet very mean and just declined because my dog is growling! Girl you don’t even staying with her in 5 mins and yet you turned back away from us. I am not even done explaining that it’s her first time to be with the petsitter. Her approach is not good towards my dog and she can feel it. Not all dogs are the same. She growled at her bec she was mean at the very beginning. I am so frustrated with Wag. I am not going to use this app anymore. I am so thankful that she declined. She cannot be trusted bec of her behavior towards my dog and towards me. I am still explaining and yet turned around and left. This lady was very mean and rude.’

… great service, lacks consistency

It is a great service that allows you to find a lot of available caretakers for your pets fairly quickly. I like that you can read reviews and read the bios of the caretakers. My only complaint is that it does seem that people do not stay very long on the app. Either they get new jobs or move or some other circumstance happens. So it has been hard to find a consistent caretaker for my pet. But three out of the four people that I have met have been lovely. So grateful for the app.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Penelope! We're glad the platform has made it easy to find Caregivers quickly, and that the reviews and bios have helped you weigh your options. Most of the Caregivers you've met sound like great matches for your pup, too. We appreciate your feedback on consistency. Since Caregivers are independent business owners, their availability can shift—but adding favorites to your Preferred Caregivers list (tap the heart on their profile) can help prioritize them when they're available. We look forward to continuing to support you and your pup!

This review covers an interaction with…customer service (JERA)

Huck’s walkers with WAG

WAG has been a very reliable resource for providing walkers for my dog Huck. The walkers that WAG has provided have all been very good with Huck. I would highly recommend this service.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you for your kind review and recommendation, Emma! It sounds like all the Caregivers you've connected with through Wag! have been a great match for Huck. We look forward to continuing to support you and Huck—here's to many more good walks ahead!

Best in class

Every single dog walker I have had form Wag has been exceptional! And I love their system-such good communication.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you for your fantastic review, Norrine—we're humbled by your words! We love hearing that all of the Caregivers you've connected with through Wag! have been a great match for your pup—and that the Wag! app makes it easy to communicate with them. We look forward to continuing to support you both—wishing your pup many more happy strolls ahead!

We had a great second experience!

We had a great second experience using Wag to take care of our FurBaby for a week. Jessica was Amazing! She was very tentative, knowledgeable and caring. She posted feedings, walks and sent us a couple of pics! I love the way that Wag does the checks on their caregivers and post their ratings so you can know your caregiver. What a great and safe way to find a great boarding place for your FurBaby! I highly recommend Wag service needs!

Reply from Wag!2026-06-29

Thank you for the high recommendation, Sheila! Jessica sounds like she was a great match for you and your fur baby alike—present, experienced, and thoughtful across a full week of boarding. We're glad you also enjoyed the in-app features for sharing photos and service updates to help you feel connected from afar! We also appreciate your trust in how Wag! vets Caregivers and shares ratings—we want every Pet Parent to feel confident in who they're choosing to care for their loved ones. We look forward to continuing to support you and your pup—here's to many more good experiences ahead!

Wag was there when I needed a check in…

Wag was there when I needed a check in for my pup after last minute change of plans. I was able to pick the person who came to my house and she was great with my little guy.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-13

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Brian! A last-minute change of plans is stressful—we're glad you decided to give Wag! a try. Finding care quickly makes all the difference, as does having the ability to review and pick the Caregiver who best fits your needs. We love hearing it was a great match for your little guy! We look forward to continuing to support you and your pup—whether for last-minute care or scheduled in advance, we're here for you!

WAG has been “paw-fect” to work with

WAG has been “paw-fect” to work with. They have been very responsive to our needs and provide timely and friendly reports following a dog walk. We leave our home confident our Remi will get the exercise and attention he needs. We appreciate their TLC and the excitement they bring to each walk encounter.

Reply from Wag!2026-06-13

Thank you for your kind review! It sounds like the Caregivers Remi has connected with have brought real care and enthusiasm to each walk—giving you peace of mind that he's getting what he needs. We love hearing you enjoy the prompt walk report cards they share, keeping you connected to his day. We look forward to continuing to support you both—here's to many more memorable walks ahead!

Giving your website and techies a three finger salute.

If I could I would give your website and the techies a three finger salute. Women walkers very nice, though.
