The wet season runs May to October and drops close to 61 inches of rain a year, much of it in afternoon thunderstorms, so walkers shift routes to early morning or dusk and carry towels.

The City of Hialeah requires every business operating in the city, including home-based ones, to hold a local Business Tax Receipt before starting work. Miami-Dade County's leash law under Section 5-20 makes it unlawful to let a dog be unrestrained or at large off the owner's property, so dogs must be leashed and under control in public areas. Pet-care earnings are self-employment income, reported on Schedule C against the platform's 1099.
