Weekend Hikes Only: Due to daylight savings and a full-time job, I am unable to do weekday hikes from November-January. If you’d like to sign up for weekend hikes, on Thursdays I will email everyone who signed up my availability for the upcoming weekend, and then people can sign up on a first come first serve basis, and others can still join once the session is established (or create a new one if time allows it!).
If interested, please email rufflovehikes@gmail.com and we’ll make sure to keep you in the loop! – Andrew
60, 90, & 120 minute adventures.

Rain or shine.

Use our online booking service to find the hike duration, date, and start time that fits best. After your dogs first hike, they can then ‘Join The Pack’ and you will be able to get bulk hikes at reduced rates.

2. Door-to-Door Transport
Relax, we’ll handle the rest. We will arrive at your home ~15-60 minutes before the hike start time depending on how many dogs will need to be picked up, with smiles and a dog ramp for easy access, before heading to and from a nearby dog-friendly trail. If dirty or drenched, we will use clean towels or your hose if possible/needed. Pre-pay or pay with cash, card, or Apple Pay on drop-off.

3. Exercise & Socialize
The physical and mental exercise your dog(s) receive will transform them into a happier, healthier version of themselves, guaranteed.
Dogs that stay cooped up inside are more likely to let that energy out in less desirable ways and can be a pain to manage. Additionally, a lack of exercise and socialization can erode their mental and physical well-being.
We meticulously strive to provide an experience that is low stress on the dogs and always put ourselves between them and other trail-users. Often times dogs bark or show aggression because they feel the need to be the protector. Us training them to stay on the outside of trails and ignoring other trail-users will develop their trail manners and give them longer hikes.

We capture and provide photos and or videos of every hike along with various health data points tracked using a fitness smartwatch. You’re also able to opt-out of receiving this.

Vitality – The capacity to live, grow, or develop.
With this 2022 meta analysis, we now have substantial evidence that walks in nature vs. in a city significantly decreases anxiety and depression in humans – increasing our mood and longevity.
I believe this effect compounds with dogs who have noses 10,000 – 100,000 times stronger than us, paws sensitive to hot concrete, and can experience anxiety in overwhelming urban environments.
In this blog post, you will learn some of the benefits that exercise in nature can provide and how we here at Ruff Love Dog Hikes can positively impact you and your dogs’ lives.
