Walker, a freelance artist and gig economy worker, finds himself overwhelmed by the chaos and uncertainty of city life. Seeking control and financial stability to strengthen his relationship with his driven girlfriend, Kylie, he takes on an unusually high-paying but strange dog-walking assignment. The job leads him to a remote mansion where he encounters Doug, a man who has adopted a canine persona completely. Though initially disgusted by the bizarre situation, Walker decides to remain, convincing himself that this dehumanizing experience is simply another task in his lineup of gigs.
