Stacey Wiley first began Woofwalks in back in 2000 to be able to spend more time with her pups, Scout and Giotto. She started taking out small groups of dogs and opened her home to her client’s dogs when they needed boarding. Since then, Woofwalks has been happily walking packs of dogs through the Oakland Hills. We’ve built strong relationships with our clients and they and their dogs have become family to us.
As of October 2023, Woofwalks’ longtime Office Manager Kate Wolfson became the owner under the new LLC – Woofwalks East Bay. As the new owner, Kate wanted to provide stability in income for her walkers, and as such, have converted them all employees. Now the walkers have their much-deserved sick pay, Workers Comp Insurance, reimbursement for their mileage and a team they can call their own. There are more big changes ahead for Woofwalks and we’re looking forward to providing more services for the dogs in our community!
