Dog Walking in Vine, Kalamazoo, MI

“Great walk! Erin was on time and took great care of both dogs while I was out of town for the day. I appreciated the pictures and map of their dog walk route! Thanks, Erin!!”

“An absolute wonderful person to watch after your pet! She was so loving toward Charlie and he had an absolutely blast with her while I was out of town. Big thanks to Theresa!”

“Christi has been helping take care of our pets for years. She does a great job and our animals love her. She has helped us with our dogs in the past, and currently our cats. She is attentive and caring when it comes to our needs. I would highly recommend her for services.”

“Awesome! Very friendly and reliable! Would not hesitate to use her every time to walk our dog!!”

“Very sweet with my pup”

“Daniel is a kind and patient animal-lover. He is attentive and caring and really connects with the pets he cares for. I trust him to take excellent care of my pets as well as his own. He's responsible, thoughtful, and always goes the extra mile.”

About: I completed the Dog Walking Academy in November 2018, provided by TipTopTails Training in Kalamazoo. Also completed Pet Tech CPR, First Aid and Care in November 2018. Having recently retired from WMU, I am looking forward to spending time with your dog(s) or cat(s) and earning some extra income. I have been a dog owner all of my life, my husband and I currently have one American Staffordshire Terrier rescue named Mazzie who is three years old. I am available to come to your home to visit with and care for your pets, I am not able to house your animals at my home during the day or overnight. Eventually, these services may also be available. I have experience with dogs who need daily medications (insulin, seizure meds) or those with chronic issues. I am available to care for your pet(s) in your home while you are away for the day or on vacation. I am retired from WMU and have fairly open days and evenings. I am not able to do overnights at this time. I have had many dogs and right now we have adopted a new rescue dog, a Staffordshire terrier who is about 3 years old. For that reason, I do not bring your animals to my home, I come to you.

“Grace was willing to come a long way for a trial walk and then realized it was too far. She was friendly and able to handle my larger dog and nervous smaller dog.”

“Jess stands out as the biggest, most compassionate animal lover I've ever known. She has a heart for all living creatures and treats them with kindness and respect. She did a wonderful job with our pups! They had a great time with Jess!”

“Paige is amazing and super caring with pets! She takes care of them and loves them like her own. She will know how to do everything that is needed, feeding, training, administering medicine. Also, all the loving in the world will be given!”

“I've known Jordan since we were in Middle School. To say this woman has survived and thrived would be a huge understatement. She's by far the most resourceful, innovative, and passionate person that I know. She goes above and beyond to ensure that everything and everyone around her is well taken care of. Nova (her snake) is extremely lucky to have found her forever home with Jordan. Anyone would be blessed to have Jordan take care of their pet.”

“Dear Kenzie, Thanks for taking care of Drax. Really stubborn with new people, but he was very fond of you! Also thanks for being so flexible with my schedule and accommodating my requests! Would book again!”

“Jackie has cared for my dog several times as i travel a lot for work. She handles my pup with great care and even sends me pupdates of their activities! I can tell my little pup is happy with her.”

About: I've had different kinds of pets since I was 8. I have taken care of rabbits, cats, dogs, fish, and turtles. I always have a thing when it comes to animals, I really enjoy their presence. I'm very playful with animals and I always make sure that the animals I take care of are comfortable and happy being around me. I am currently a full time student. If you need me on weekdays please let me know because I have different schedules each day. Notes: I am pretty much available for the summer! My apartment is pet friendly. There's a big field next to my apartment. There is a lot of puppies in my neighborhood so your dog won't ever get lonely. There's also dog waste bags everywhere near my apartment, so your dog can potty anywhere. For cats, I have cat toys in my apartment because I have 2 cats but they currently live at my parents house, for potty I might have to buy the sand or if you could provide one that would be awesome!

“Erin has watched our two dogs every time that we go out of town. Our dogs are very spoiled and she caters to them as if they were her own. She is very attentive to them and gets down on the floor and plays ball with them. They love all the attention that she gives them. We feel so comfortable leaving our dogs with her. We would highly recommend her. ”

“Adam is amazing with my dogs! My dogs love all the playing and the attention Adam gives them. My pups are elated the moment they walk thru the door! Adam loves animals & you can easily see it when they interact. Adam is such a caring human, they will take wonderful care of your pet the same way they do with mine!”

“Barb is amazing!!! Every time she gets home, Lola gets super excited because she knows is time for her walk! Barb is sweet and very kind with my baby!! 100% recommended!!”

“Maggie is the best!! Our dogs were staying with my elderly parents while we were out of town and needed to be walked everyday. Maggie came to our rescue and walked them daily and gave them VIP treatment! Maggie is a dependable, professional loving care giver and we would definitely call her again to care for our dogs!!”

“She’s good with animals. She takes good care of her two dogs and two cats and four children. She would be good at this.” Type of work”

About: I have had the opportunity to bring peace of mind to dozens of loving pet parents over the last 4 years. I have watched pets during housesits, in my own home, and sometimes just for a walk! I have taken care of many senior dogs and have the experience required to provide them with proper love and care. I’m currently back in Kalamazoo ! I’m very excited to navigate the pet community here and meet new pet families in need of experienced care. I prefer housesitting, but I will be available for regular check-ins. I am very flexible and receptive to whatever style of care you find suitable for your pet! I have had multiple experiences with plant sitting, pet sitting, house sitting, and I work well in new situations. A lot of empathy goes a long way, and that is something I always keep in mind as I work.
