Most unreliable and uncaring dog-walking service ever!
I have repeatedly been disappointed by Wag. I should have never continued to trust Wag after this initial incident: my assigned walker went to the wrong apartment and took out another tenant’s dog by mistake. And the only way this was discovered was when the other tenant came home and saw her dog out on a walk with a stranger! My apartment was clearly outlined in the app but the walker obvious paid little attention to the info listed. I continued to try Wag because it theoretically gives you flexibility in scheduling a walk. However, I have subsequently booked walks and had walkers cancel at the last minute. Yesterday, I had a scheduled and confirmed walk in the evening. While I was out at dinner, I was informed that no walker was available and the service was just canceled (at the time of the appointment). I had to leave my dinner immediately to take care of my dog since I was over 2 hours away. Wag walkers rave about the flexibility of accepting walks. It is this same flexibility that allows walkers to cancel on you at the very last minute. Do they not realize that there is a living creature at the other end of their decision?! The lack of reliability coupled with the cavalier attitude of Wag is quite distasteful. There is no accountability and no clear way of communicating with them. Wag clearly has disregard for their clients and the animals they supposedly take care of. Every other dog-walking service I have used has provided infinitely better care. If you care about your pet and your peace of mind, never ever trust or use Wag!
