The Balanced K9 is absolutely brilliant. Each and every walker that has worked with my dog has been wonderful: kind, patient, and professional. My dog is beside himself with excitement waiting for them to arrive, and always comes home happy and tired out. Can't recommend this group highly enough!

We have been with Balanced K9 for over 5 years, likely much longer (so long I can’t remember when we started!). We started walks with our little doxie, Charley, who was the leader of his pack. Charley’s confidence grew so much with the help of all the walkers that handled him. When he passed away, the walkers at balanced K9 showed us so much compassion, grief, and love, that it quickly realized we were truly apart of an extended family. Now we have a lab/malinois pup, Mochi, that Balanced K9 is so wonderful with. She’s got so much energy, yet they are able to manage her and help her grow into a social and lovable adult dog. Even when she has let her toddlerness get the best of her, Sharnae and her team have helped us work though it, altering whatever they can to give Mochi a safe space and continuing to teach a strong foundation of obedience. I wavered in writing this post because I feel that Balanced K9 is a special gem that I want to greedily keep all to myself. But I honestly can’t recommend them enough. They have skilled walkers, great leadership, and the biggest hearts. I could go on and on. They really are in it for the love of their clients: the dogs.

I cannot say enough good things about The Balanced K9. Sharnae and her walkers are absolutely amazing with our dog. They are incredibly reliable, great communicators, and treat our dog with so much LOVE. Our dog has become such a happier and more respectful member of our family too since we started using them. And added bonus is the amazing pictures they take of our dog and her pack on their walks... so adorable! I am so, so, so happy with the Balanced K9.

I love The Balanced K9! Been using the dog walking and boarding services for a little over a year now. Love that the pups get to head out for 2 hours, off-leash and roam with the pack. Boarding services are great too - pick up and drop off helps reduce travel time after a long trip. Love the team, can't express this enough!

I love every single one of the walkers, who are caring, wonderful individuals I'd trust my human child to as well (if I had one). They all clearly love dogs and treat them as their own, making sure that each pack walk is safe and fun. Rosie always comes back so happy and tired. Since they started walking her when she was still a puppy, they have also been great about reinforcing training. I've also used Balanced K9 for boarding and not only did Rosie obviously have a great time, I also got constant text updates and pictures so I knew she was happy and I didn't need to worry.
