Dog Walking Abington

About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I’ve had 3 years of experience helping care for dogs and cats. Now pursuing art, I’m looking to continue to help take care of pets. I’m currently working on pursuing my art career, so my schedule is pretty open for drop ins or walks. I’m occasionally available for in-house pet sitting. In the part few years, I’ve developed a real heart for animals. Pet care is so important, giving a voice to those who can’t speak.

“Emily was wonderful with our Great Dane! She was prompt, kind and patient with her. She was very in tune with our pups needs during their walks, and was so mindful on the very hot days to take it slow or return for water when needed. Our pup is known to have some undesirable behavior on walks, and Emily came a few days early to meet her, learn her nuances and took notes so she was prepared to manage it. Looking forward to working with Emily again!”

“Nicole has walked my dog several times and has been wonderful! She took the time to ask about my dog’s needs/behaviors before our weekly walks started. She sends detailed reports after each walk, which I appreciate. She is very caring and responsible and I trust her to take good care of my dog. I highly recommend Nicole!”

If checks ins, walks, play dates are needed, I'm your guy. I have my two cats at home and cannot currently take more animals in here for watching, but have a car to transport to the pets in need! I am a clean person, will tidy up after the animals and will follow whatever rules are put in place.

Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog mom to my lab, Zephyr, my days are built around walks, exercise, and making sure he is happy and well cared for.

“Jaqueline is very kind and you can just tell has a heart and soul for animals. She was very easy to work with and came over for a meet and greet before the first walk. She asked all the right questions during the meet and greet and Bonnie took to her gentle energy right away! Would highly recommend Jaqueline for all your pet services needs!”

Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully monitor interactions and create a calm environment where your fur-baby can relax and enjoy themselves. I will care for your dog as if they were my own! My schedule would be based on your dog's needs. I am available for daily check-ins, over night stays and daily walks. Your dog's needs come first. When caring for your dog in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal, comfortable and stress free as possible. I will follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, portion sizes, treats, medications and any special dietary needs. Fresh water will always be available. Daily walks and exercise would be tailored to your dog's age, energy level and your preferences. Exercise could be a short/long walk, short bathroom breaks, playtime in the yard or indoor activities. Companionship, affection and attention are a must when caring for your pet.

“Madeline is wonderful! She is easy to work with, flexible, and reliable! I love that she sends me a picture while out on the walks with Cookie. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with, and taken care of, animals all my life, both as an owner (1 dog, 3 cats, and 4 fish), and as a pet sitter. I currently volunteer at an animal shelter because animals just make me incredibly happy and I enjoy caring for them. Whether it's walking (a cat or dog), feeding, administering medication, playing, sitting, cleaning, or cleaning up after them, I am only too happy to help. I also have experience with both senior pets and younger pets (kittens and puppies). I have a part time job and I volunteer. I am available weekends, Mondays, and Tuesday afternoons. I do not do over nights, but I can check in at night and early morning. I personally know it can be gut wrenching to leave a pet alone, especially with someone unfamiliar, so I take my responsibility very seriously. I would treat your pet how I would hope my pet would be treated. I will make sure that everything will be exactly where I found it. I will clean up any pet messes made during my shift. I promise to remain with, entertain, or comfort your pet. Plus I'll send as many photos as you like.

About: Hi! My name is Trystan. I grew up with big dogs and currently own three cats. I have experience taking care of pets of all sizes and am excited to be best friends with yours! My current schedule gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, dependable care throughout the week. I am able to accomodate last-minute bookings, daytime visits, and consistent care routines, even on holidays! I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn pet's routines, personality, and needs as well as give them lots of affection when families are away. I also send regular updates and photos so pet parents can know their pets are safe and happy.

About: I have a dog of my own, she’s the sweetest. When it come to your dog needs you’ll have no problem with that at all I’m currently working part-time. My schedule is quite flexible.Monday through Thursday I’m usually available for the most part. When I’m free I try to keep myself busy My dog is well fed, athletic, healthy, walks, hiking. Hoping I came bring the same energy to your home. Most dog love the outdoors and being adventurous

About: I worked with ARL Boston, where I gained expertise on animal behavior and training, nutrition, and basic veterinary care procedures such as vaccinations, insulin injections, and treating a variety of ailments. I encountered a variety of animal breeds of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from sharky puppies to old grouchy senior dogs who despise going inside after a good stroll. In addition, I majored in animal science in high school and am currently pursuing courses in animal behavior and zoology in college. I am available on weekdays and weekends with a minimum of one day's notice. On same-day notice, I may still be available and accepting requests, so please contact me. However, with shorter notice, it is less likely that I will be available. In the client's house, I’m going to use caution when meeting their animal (I am in their space and need to make a positive first impression). Even if they are known to be pleasant, I will still take my time getting to know them. This allows me to earn an animal's trust while ensuring that I am aware of their behavioral cues and handling preferences. Once mutual trust is established, we’ll have a great time enjoying all of their favorite activities together while staying safe.

“Kristina was on time and had great communication and share photos of our happy little dog during her walk!”

I currently work at a dog daycare and spend 5 days a week with the dogs. I am a college student who commutes and has class two days a week. My availability is very open and am willing to pick up last minute visits or walks. I will pay close attention to your pet during walks or visits and spend time with them/give them space if that is what would make them most comfortable.
