Deliberately Private Dog Walks + Small On-Leash Group Hikes on the NH Seacoast.
Structured, professional care with familiar walkers, small groups, and clear standards behind each visit.
The standards behind Stratham Strolls
My background is in pet care operations, and that experience shapes how Stratham Strolls is run.
Professional pet care is not just about what happens during the walk. It is also about the systems behind it. Scheduling, communication, documentation, backup coverage, home access, emergency planning, and clear expectations all matter.
At Stratham Strolls:
Visits are GPS and time tracked.
Care notes and communication stay in one secure client system.
Dogs are cared for by familiar people, with planned backup coverage.
Group hikes stay small and on leash.
Boarding is reserved for dogs we already know.
Scheduling windows and service expectations are clearly defined.
Home access is planned in advance.
Emergency procedures are addressed before they are ever needed.
We do not rely on last minute scrambling to keep care running.
Good pet care should feel personal.
Professional pet care should also be accountable, organized, and dependable.
Care that fits the dog
We keep our services focused so we can do them well. Whether your dog needs on one one time, a small social outing or a familiar place to stay, care is kept personal, structured, and deliberately limited.
Dog Walking
Consistent, structured visits that actually fit your dog’s routine and your schedule.
Group Hikes (Trial Required)
Small, structured hikes for dogs that are a safe fit for a small, managed hiking environment.
Private Boarding
We offer limited in home boarding for active clients. Boarding is done in a family centered environment with structure and consistency built in to avoid additional stress. Rate based on one dog.
Before boarding: (inactive clients)
Dogs must be active walk or hike clients
A minimum of 3 visits is required beforehand
This allows us to get to know your dog and ensure a good fit
We reserve the right to decline boarding requests if it’s not the right fit, even after the initial visits.
This is not an on-demand service. We prioritize consistent scheduling and clear communication.
Why dogs settle into our routine
Familiar people
Your dog gets to know the people walking them instead of starting over with someone new each week. That familiarity makes the routine easier for every dog, and can be especially helpful for dogs who are nervous or slow to warm up.
Room to breathe
Walks are never crammed into tiny time slots to maximize capacity, and our groups stay small enough for us to actually pay attention to the dogs in front of us.
Backup without the shuffle
If your regular walker is unavailable, care stays within our small team instead of being handed off to someone your dog has never met.
Clear communication
Visit notes, photos, and updates are kept in one secure place so you always know how your dog’s visit went.
Track able visits
GPS tracking, time tracking, an automatic note telling you your walker has begun your dogs’ visit, followed by a completed visit report within minutes of leaving your home - so you are never left wondering.
This is care designed to run smoothly—so you don’t have to manage it.
From the people who trust us with their dogs.
“Highly recommend Jocelyn at Stratham Strolls! Her communication is excellent, and she is incredibly friendly and warm. My dog can be finicky around new people and usually doesn’t want to leave the house without his family, but Jocelyn has done an amazing job making him feel comfortable and at ease. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. We’re so grateful to have found her!”

“My dog and I LOVE Stratham Strolls. It's easy to book and pay, and I have full confidence that the walkers all care for my dog. And I don't have to worry if my "normal" walker is unavailable - the team steps up and steps in to make sure my dog is taken care of! Sometimes the dog gets overexcited but the walkers are all equipped to handle redirecting him easily. Could not recommend them enough!”

“My 2 year old lab goes on several hikes per week and it is the best thing for her! She socializes, exercises and practices recall. Stratham Strolls takes very good care of her and shows up rain or shine. They go above and beyond by checking her for ticks, drying her off when she's gotten wet or went for a swim, etc. I highly recommend them!”
