We take every precaution to keep your dog safe. From runner screening to run protocols to constant communication, your peace of mind is built into everything we do.
Not everyone can be a Pawsitive Runner. We carefully screen every runner for experience, fitness, reliability, and genuine love of dogs.
Every runner goes through identity and background checks
Minimum 2+ years working with dogs required
Runners must demonstrate they can safely handle athletic dogs
All runners complete our safety and protocol training
Regular performance reviews and dog owner feedback
Every run follows strict protocols designed to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and having a great time.
Your dog is never grouped with other dogs — full attention, every run
On-leash runs in safe, familiar routes within our service area
Runs adjusted or rescheduled for extreme heat, cold, or storms
Water breaks built into every run, especially on warm days
Runners carry first aid basics and know your vet's contact
You should never wonder what is happening with your dog. We keep you informed before, during, and after every run.
You'll know when your runner is on the way and when they're heading back
Photo, route, duration, and notes after every single run
Direct line to your runner and to our team during runs
We want every dog to succeed, but some situations are outside our scope. We will be honest with you if we are not the right match — and can suggest alternatives.
Dogs with documented bite incidents toward people are outside our scope
Dogs requiring specialized behavioral intervention need a trainer first
All our runs are on-leash for safety and legal compliance
