Dog Walking in State College, PA
Dogs don't do well sitting still all day. You probably already know that, which is why you're here.
Wayfare Pet Care offers professional dog walking in State College and surrounding Centre County neighborhoods, Monday through Saturday, 8am to 6pm. Pick the walk that fits your dog's needs and your schedule. Every option includes the same level of care, the same accountability, and the same person at your door every time.
Choose Your Walk
30-Minute Walk
The standard. Enough time to actually stretch their legs, sniff around, and burn off the energy that builds up during a long morning inside. This is what most dogs need on a regular weekday.
What's included:
- 30-minute walk through your neighborhood
- Fresh water refill
- Behavioral check-in and visit report
- Mail brought in, trash taken out, plants watered if needed
60-Minute Walk
The long one. For high-energy dogs, working breeds, or any dog that needs more than a quick lap to feel settled. An hour gives enough time to explore, move at their pace, and come home genuinely tired.
What's included:
- 60-minute walk with more ground covered
- Fresh water refill
- Full behavioral check-in and visit report
- Mail brought in, trash taken out, plants watered if needed
Save More with Wayfare Plus

Add-Ons to Make Life Easier
Beyond the walk itself, we offer a range of add-ons to help manage your daily routine. Bring in the mail and trash, water plants, feed your dog, refill water bowls, tidy up pet toys, or handle other small tasks while we're there. You pick what you need, we handle the rest.
Scheduling
All walks are available Monday through Saturday, 8am to 6pm. You book through the Wayfare website. Once confirmed, your slot is yours. If anything changes on our end, you'll hear from us directly and ahead of time.
Before the First Walk
Every new client starts with a meet-and-greet. It's 45 minutes, at your home, and it happens before we ever show up to walk your dog.
That meeting is where we learn your dog's routine, their personality, what they respond to, and what to watch for. It's also where you get to ask everything you want to know before handing someone a key to your house. After that, there are no strangers at your door, just someone your dog already knows.
Who's Walking Your Dog
Jordan Harper. Born and raised in State College. Wayfare is a full-time, owner-operated business, not a side gig, not a platform that sends whoever's available. You know who's coming before they arrive.
Certifications include Pet First Aid and CPR, Red Cross First Aid for Pets, Pet Sitters International (PSI), and Animal Behaviour training. If something goes wrong on a walk, we're prepared to handle it.
Part of Something Bigger
A portion of every Wayfare booking goes directly to local animal shelters. Not as a promotion, as a permanent part of how the business runs. When you book a walk, you're also giving lost pets a second chance at finding their forever home.
Wayfare Pet Care provides dog walking in State College, PA and surrounding Centre County areas, including College Heights, Toftrees, Park Forest, Lemont, and nearby neighborhoods. Anyone outside of those areas may be subject to a $10 upcharge per service.
