Welcome to the Hitch-a-Hike squad
all-terrain paws & all-fun adventures.
Wagging tails start here.
A wise doggy once said, “It’s not just about where you walk — it’s also about who you walk with.”
Operating throughout Victoria and Saanich, Hitch-a-Hike was born out of the simple joy of spending time with humankind’s furriest, most slobbery, and bestest companion.
Pet Care & Dog Walking Services
Group adventures
We’ll take your furry pal on off-leash hiking adventures, park wanders, and other enriching activities.
Monday through Friday, pickup and drop-off included.
Private dog walks
Leashed or unleashed fun, one-on-one.
Perfect for lone wolves, private walks let us personalize your dog’s time, whether they need extra support or thrive in a solo environment.
Small packs, big exploration
Big hikes with your dog’s dream team.
We match well-suited pals to each other in tight-knit packs of six dogs or less. We account for different needs, so even senior dogs or those with mobility challenges can enjoy more time and care on the trail.
Walking dogs across Victoria.
Serving dogs and their guardians throughout Victoria, Hitch-a-Hike provides pups with compassion, care, and tail-wagging fun with every walk. Look for Fifi AKA Fiona, the team’s compact, capable, and slightly conspicuous dog shuttle and chauffeur.
We primarily offer pickup and drop-off for pups in and around Cedar Hill, Fernwood, Fairfield, James Bay, Vic West, Esquimalt & Admirals.
Certified fear & force-free.
The best adventures are those that facilitate the health and happiness of your dog. Hitch-a-Hike follows fear-free and force-free practices, which means gentle control, positive reinforcement and rewards, and letting your dog choose what they’re comfortable with. We pay close attention to their body language and cues to understand their feelings, support their needs, and build a trusting relationship.
With attention to unique dog personalities and needs, group walks are selectively organized for complementary fits. Standard group walks are limited to six dogs to ensure each member gets the attention they deserve. Hitch-a-Hike is fully registered and insured.
