Dog Walkers in Akron, IN

About: I have owned all kinds of pets my whole life! Cats, dogs, guinea pigs, etc… besides that, I’ve also volunteered at many animal shelters! I frequently pet sit for friends and family with all kinds of furry family members! I’m currently in school, and entering my sophomore year! I’m home for the summer, and looking for something I know I would love to do! I have very open availability, and I’m willing to come to you! Even though I’d love to bring your furry friends home with me, I have to put the well being of my doggy first in her home. Regardless, I’ve learned to read animals fairly well, and I’m able to give them all of my attention, or all the space- whatever they need! At home, we have one German Shepherd who does everything with me! From going on walks, to going to get a coffee, she never leaves my sight! I am completely prepared to give the same love to any animal!!

About: I've been taking care of dog for as long as I can remember. I'm able to take care of/ watch dog from puppies to seniors. I've watched dog with and without disabilities, and I know how to administer medications from pills to shots. I also know how to preform cpr and the heimlich if needed. I currently have a part time job where I get to choose when to work. So I'm able to spend time with the fur babies whenever. I'm very respectful of my clients homes, and I follow rules that they set of me. I like to keep my clients updated on what's going on with plenty of photos, and I always try to make sure the fur babies I'm watching have a good time.

“Thanks Kelsi!”

About: Hi there! I am currently the Executive Director of our local animal shelter. Prior to that position I worked at a spay/neuter vet clinic for 5 years in Indianapolis. Total animal welfare experience of over 10 years! I would be glad to stop by your house to care for your pets while you are at work/vacation or take your dog for a walk. While I am unable to stay overnight at your house while you are away for an extended period of time, I am willing to stop by several times during the day and before bed to care for your house and animals! I am very experienced in handling all different types of dogs (and kitties). I have bathing experience and am trained in giving medications. I would be happy to show off my impressive resume :) Additionally, I have two dogs of my own, two cats, and 3 children. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover ever since I can remember. I can remember begging my mom if I could pet every dog we passed on the street, emptying out my piggy bank every month for the local animal shelter, and writing all my school reports on dogs. Throughout school I was a volunteer at local shelters, in college I was the student Volunteer Coordinator for the local shelter, and now I work as the Director of our local shelter! Dogs (and cats) are my life! My experience administering medication Yep. I have lots of experience. I am flexible and can work around your schedule! I am not available between the night hours of 9pm-7am but daytime I am free to help! Stress free is important! I like to stick as closely to the routine as they are used to with their owners. I will update owners as often as they’d like!

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

About: I've been caring for people's furbabies for many years in my home and staying at the clients homes. I'm very patient and flexible in caring for these pups (and cats!). Let me know what you need, and I will figure out how to meet that need! I live in Marion and am more than willing to travel the region. Again, I am flexible and willing to negotiate! Let me help you relax. Don't worry while you are away, I will help your furbabies chill and have a vacation of their own. I am willing to tidy up your house while you are away too! Just let me know what you need and I'd be happy to help! I work a flexible schedule so I can rotate my work needs around your pet's needs, no worries, I will get what is needed done! You can trust me to be gentle with your pet and give them the care and safety they need. If they need walks, play time, whatever, I can provide! I am currently able to have a flexible schedule and have minimal life responsibilities. Therefore I have quite an open schedule and am willing to accommodate almost anything! Again, I am flexible and willing to think outside the box to meet the needs of your family. I communicate frequently with the client to best understand the needs of the furbabies. I will make sure the animals (and humans) have the opportunity to build a relationship to establish trust and confidence in my ability to provide high quality of care.

“Maddie has been AMAZING with our anxious dog! She is always communicating with me, and our dog absolutely loves her! Would recommend 100%!”
