Many people ask us what it's like to walk dogs for a living. One of our much-adored walkers, Becky, tells us about how joining the Rover-Time team after moving to Chicago on a whim has taught her how to navigate around her new hometown and create a lasting connection.

Although the underlying cause may be unknown, it is clear that poop eating can become a compulsive behavior. The more your dog is interested in playing and socializing with you while outside, the easier it will be for her to learn to “leave it.”

Have you ever wondered what it really means when a dog licks your face? Where does this behavior come from? Good news, dog lovers: when your dog licks your face, it’s definitely a sign of affection! Face licking is used as a greeting and for bonding purposes.

If your dog hates nail trims, you’re far from alone. If you’ve purchased a grinder tool (like the Dremel or Pedi-Paws) to ease the discomfort, you’re in good company! And if your dog runs at the sound of the tool, you’re probably very frustrated, but this can be fixed with a little time and patience.
