"Anyone can walk your dog. We wanted to give them a little club of their own."
A bandana, not a report card
Every Scout gets a green gingham bandana on enrolment. Each dog brings home a new collectible patch from every adventure, building a little collection of memories on their bandana.
A different adventure each week
Trails, nature walks, parks, beaches — a different carefully-chosen spot every week. Never the same park on repeat.
A tracker on every Scout
Every dog wears a GPS tracker for the whole adventure — an extra layer of security. Not a guarantee, but real peace of mind.
Mon + Fri · morning trip from 7:30, afternoon trip from 1:30 · about three hours out · pickup & drop-off included in every membership.
The first patches are being drawn.
A new adventure, a new patch. Every Scout takes home a little collectible patch to add to their bandana and remember the day. We're designing the very first set right now.
Enrol now and your Scout is one of the very first — the first patches arrive as soon as the ink dries.
One rate. Everything included.
One rate per adventure — pay as you go. Patches are keepsakes, never billed.

What's the bandana deal?
Every enrolled Scout gets a Neck of the Woods bandana — soft green gingham with a sage stitched hem and honey paw crest. The bandana arrives empty. After each adventure, Andressa hands you a new collectible patch to take home and add to your Scout's growing collection.
How long will my dog actually be away?
Every dog gets the same time out — about three hours, door to door. That part never changes, and it's the bit that matters.
How long they're away from home does change, because we collect four dogs in a loop and bring them back the same way. If you're the first pickup you're also the last drop-off, so your dog might be away around two and a half to three hours. If you're the last pickup you're the first home again, and it can be as little as an hour and a half. Same walk either way — just a different amount of time in the van.
We'll tell you which end of the run you're on when we confirm your spot, and give you a drop-off window rather than a single time. And we do rotate the order so the same dog isn't always the long one.
What if I live outside your pickup area?
You're still very welcome. We run door-to-door collection across the Inner West — roughly five kilometres around Annandale, which covers Leichhardt, Rozelle, Balmain, Glebe, Petersham, Stanmore, Newtown, Enmore, Erskineville, St Peters, Camperdown, Haberfield and Marrickville. A little further out we can usually still come to you for $20 extra. The postcode box on the form will tell you which applies to you, and if you're further afield than that, get in touch anyway — we may be able to work something out.
Is pickup and drop-off really included?
Yes. Transport in the Pansi's Paws vehicle is part of every membership — dogs are appropriately secured for the drive. On the morning trip the first pickup is 7:30 AM and dogs are home between 10:30 and 11; the afternoon trip starts at 1:30 PM and runs to a matching schedule. No optional add-on fee for it. How long your dog is actually away depends where you sit on the run — see below.
What if my dog fails the recall test?
They still get to be a Scout — just on-lead. Off-leash trust is built over time, not gated at the door. Once you're comfortable with recall training we retest and unlock more trail options.
What happens in bad weather or 30°C+ heat?
We cancel or swap to a shorter cool-shaded walk. Weather cancellations are always full credit — you're never charged for a day we call off. Nov–Feb we start at 6:30 AM to stay under the heat.
What days do adventures actually run?
Mondays and Fridays, with two trips a day — a morning trip with the first pickup at 7:30 AM and dogs home between 10:30 and 11, and an afternoon trip starting at 1:30 PM. Each takes four dogs, and every dog gets about three hours out, door to door. Tell us which suits your routine. If neither day works, get in touch — we may add days as demand grows.
