Weekly scoop
Every week, same day, the whole yard: grass, beds, gravel, under the deck. Bagged and left in your bin. You don't need to be home; we just need the gate.
Dog walking and dog waste removal in Russell, Embrun and around.
Weekly scoop from $30. Thirty-minute midday walks for $25. One person does every visit, and you get a photo when it's done.
A Tuesday with Tails & Trails
Tuesday, 11 AM. Someone's been waiting since you left.
11:14 AM: On my way!
11:40 AM: Trail was muddy. He didn't mind.
12:05 PM: Yard's done, gate's latched, and he's out cold.
Small moments, big tails.
How can we help?
Dog walks
Thirty minutes, on leash, in your neighbourhood. Midday, while you're at work. Your dog, our full attention, and a photo when we're back. One to five walks a week.
Scoop + walk bundle
Both, on one weekly charge. It's the one we recommend for a dog that's home alone all day, and it changes how the dog acts at 5 pm.

Meet Elle.
I'm the only person who comes through your gate. I started Tails & Trails walking a few dogs in Russell, and the yard work came after because the same people kept asking.
I'm insured, including for holding your key. If you want to meet before you book, text me and I'll stop by.
Gabrielle Benson, who goes by Elle
How it works
- 1
Send one text.
How many dogs, roughly how big the yard is, walks or not. Your price and your day come back the same afternoon.
- 2
Sort out access once.
Gate code or latch for the scoop; a key or lockbox code for walks. Kept on file, never labelled with your address.
- 3
Same day every week.
Elle texts when she's on her way, so the dog can come in if you'd rather.
- 4
The photo lands on your phone.
A clean yard and a latched gate, or a tired dog back on the couch. Billed to your card at the end of the week.
Why us
Insured. Liability and key-holder coverage. Ask to see it.
One person, not a rotation. Elle does every visit. Your dog will know the car.
Proof, every time. A photo text after each scoop and each walk.
No contract. Weekly billing on your card. Pause for vacation, stop whenever.
If Elle is out, you know first. A text before your day, not after, and no charge for the missed visit.
Local. Home base is Russell Township, so your yard is near the start of the route, not the end of a long drive.
Where we go.
Russell, Embrun and Morewood, including rural lots. If you're just outside that, ask; the route grows one street at a time.
Questions people ask
Do I have to be home?
No. We need gate access. If your dog is in the yard and isn't sure about us, leave them inside on scoop day.
What happens to the waste?
Bagged, tied and put in your garbage bin, not the green bin. We don't haul it away, which is part of how the price stays at $30.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, year-round. If a storm buries the yard we skip that visit and don't charge for it.
How do walks work if I'm at work?
We pick up from your home, walk thirty minutes in your neighbourhood, and bring them back. Key or lockbox code kept on file, and a photo when we're done.
Is there a contract?
No. Weekly card billing through Jobber. Pause or cancel by text.
Can I get scoop and walks on the same day?
Yes, and it's the cheapest way to do both.

Tell us how many dogs, roughly how big the yard is, and whether you want walks. We text back your price and your day the same afternoon.
