Welcome to the Hitch-a-Hike squad

where every walk is an adventure

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 Services

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.

Group adventures

Leashed or unleashed fun, one-on-one.

Private walks let us personalize your dog’s time, whether they need extra support or thrive in a solo environment.

Private walks

Big-sized love for the little guys.

We’re proud to offer group walks curated for small-breed pups who may not feel as confident around large-breed pals.

Small dog-friendly

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. Group walks are limited to six dogs to ensure each member gets the attention they deserve. Hitch-a-Hike is fully registered and insured.
