Dog Walking Albion

About: I’ve had my own cats and dogs for about 20 years, ranging from babies until their final days. I walk my Belgian Malinois several miles daily and it’s typically the highlight of my day. Now that I’m self employed and have more time, I’d like to pursue my passion with furbabies. I’m self employed so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’d love to create a meaningful bond with a handful of pets/families. This is a passion project for me. I have a fully fenced yard and a dog-loving Belgian Malinois. Dogs are welcome on the couch, the cot, the dogbeds, or anywhere they’d like to be! If I am pet sitting or stopping in to your home, I will follow all rules and expectations and treat your home and pets like my own.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. Dog, cats, a bunny, all types. I currently have one adorable cat named Callie. I love any animal! I am very active but also easy going. If your dog needs a short walk, a cuddle, play time, or a full blown hike I can accommodate any need. I am very reliable and punctual as well. I am a nurse (of people haha) obviously very different but I am comfortable with meds if that is something that is necessary as well. I am willing to learn how they are administered. I learn quickly and can adapt to your pet’s needs and routine. I am a part time nurse so I can be home with my kids. I have a very open schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pets needs. I will adapt to any routine your pet has in your home. I can feed them, go for walks, play fetch, cuddles, change litter boxes, whatever they may need.

About: I’ve cared for about 8 dogs in my life. I currently own two and all of them have been like my best friends. I also used to volunteer at a pitbull rescue for a year and a half while serving in the military. I also have a cat and have been cat sitting neighbors cats since I was 10. I am currently going to school at Rhode Island College working on my degree in Psychology and working a part time job but am always willing to make time for fur babies! I’m experienced in giving dogs medication if necessary and familiar with animals who have seizures. Most animals naturally gravitate towards me and have my whole life. I always carry dog treats with me and have so much love for all animals.

About: I come from a family of pet lovers (dog lovers to be specific, but I don't discriminate). Dogs have been members of my family since I was a wee lass. As of now, I take care of my tiny 4-pound chihuahua who loves to sit in the sunny spots outside or bark at intruders from the safety of the couch. I like to volunteer at the local Hotel for Homeless Dogs but at the end of the day a girl's gotta eat, so here I am! I am willing to care for your pet at any time, any day of the week. I have complete availability to hang out with your pet and tend to their needs.🐾 My home is located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood in suburban Lincoln. The house is pet-friendly, complete with a large fenced backyard with lots of space to run in the grass! I live right on the Blackstone River Bikeway which provides easy access to scenic walks along the canal if you allow me to care for your pet at my address. If you provide me the opportunity to care for your pet in the comfort of your own home, I will request a complete rundown of all their needs including the spaces they are allowed to roam and places that are off limits. I'll also provide constant text and photo updates to ease your mind while you're away.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for my own pets throughout my life and have hands-on experience as both a foster caregiver and dog trainer with service dogs in training. These experiences have taught me how to understand different personalities, needs, and behaviors while providing patience, consistency, and plenty of love. My passion for animals also led me to earn a degree in Ecology, where I developed a deeper understanding and appreciation for the natural world and the animals we share it with. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal as an individual and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, companionship, or simply some extra attention, I’m dedicated to treating them like family. I’m currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to care for your best friend! I also have a dog at home so I do need to care for him but other than that I’m available weekdays and weekends! When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed while their owners are away. I also take pride in being respectful of your home. I keep things clean and tidy, make sure pets have fresh water and a comfortable space, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

“Lesley is amazing! We contacted her on short notice when my fiance was suddenly returning back to work. We loved that she had the experience to provide training walks for our little guy who is still learning his leash manners. She was flexible with our schedules, and keeps in contact with updates/videos throughout. She has provided us great advice on how to be better dog parents while on our walks. In just a few visits our baby is already behaving so much better on his walks! Do yourself a favor and hire Lesley!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and grew up with my first dog, a Pit Bull and Chocolate Lab mix, who was with me from birth until I was 16. I helped care for her throughout her life and developed a really special bond with her. I also have a new dog who is mostly Pit Bull, and I take care of him regularly. I’ve also cared for friends dogs and currently walk a Golden Retriever multiple times a week throughout the summer. I’m comfortable with different personalities and love building a genuine connection with every dog I meet. I’m currently a student but have a pretty flexible schedule where I have much free time during the week and full availability on the weekends. I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable while they’re in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’m very attentive and make sure pets get the care, attention and love they need. I also treat every client’s home with the same respect I would want for my own.

About: I have been dog sitting for friends on and off since I can remember and always grew up around animals. I love to stay active and move but also just sit and play and take care of dogs and cats. I always seem to know just the right spot to rub with all the cute adorable dogs which is all of them! I understand that they come in all sizes and all have different personalities and I can’t wait to meet them! Spending time with any animal never seems to disappoint me and will always bring a smile to my face with their beautiful tail wags and smiling. I have been walking dogs using Wag previous to this Currently part time working and looking for extra time with some new furry friends! I love spending time outdoors and do so on my own so having a buddy is always a nice touch. Safety is a big concern animals are basically like family and I understand that their safety is a priority. I always make sure they are handled with love and care and patience.

“Thank you so much!”

“Cassandra is great! She is very reliable and has built a fantastic relationship with Maizy in a short amount of time (just a few walks). Maizy excitedly awaits her arrival every morning and goes nuts when she sees Cassandra's vehicle pull up.”

About: My name is Sarah and I'm 33 years old. I took a little stint from Rover to focus on my professional career but I'm back and so excited to start petsitting again! Animals have been a huge part of my life ever since I was young. I worked at a vet throughout high school and even started my own dog sitting company in Charleston, SC upon graduation from Virginia Tech - safe to say, I've always been obsessed with animals. I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds and ages, including puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats, dogs those with disabilities, cats that require medication, etc. You name it, I've probably had to handle it in all my years of pet care. I love taking dogs on adventures - the beach, hiking trails, etc. I will treat your fur babies like my own and give them the exercise and TLC they deserve while you are away! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is pretty open (including weekends). I'm available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and doggy day care (this includes walks, feeding, TLC, medication administration, etc.). I also offer overnight care, whether that be in your home or mine (whatever you and your pet prefer). This is a service I'm currently offering to private clients but am starting to extend to Rover. In my client's homes, I always let them take the lead with their comfortability and with their pet's normal routine. I want to make sure your pet hardly notices you are gone and that they are 100% comfortable and happy with someone in their environment. Whether that means crating them, walking them at specific times, having designated playtime. Again, I let the client take the lead on instructing me in those cases. When I bring a pet into my home, it's important that they get along with cats, as I have two who are very friendly and don't interact too much with my/client's dogs. Currently my Husky is staying with my mom in Virginia, so he will not be in the apartment. I want my space to feel as "homey" to them as possible, so whatever is needed to make that happen, I accommodate.

About: I’m a retired person with grooming experience. I also worked in a kennel for 6 years. Volunteered at a shelter for 1 year walking dogs plus I have my own dogs. Your Furbaby will be in good hands!! I have a bichon poo that is in training now. I’m retired so I can concentrate on him. I’m a caregiver for mom but I still have spare time to dedicate to dog walking. I would be walking dogs so a route would be discussed with the owner. Otherwise I would scout out a safe area to walk there dogs

“She understood my shy dogs needs!”

About: I’ve done dog sitting and walking in the past. I’ve also worked with grooming dogs. And I grew up with horses. I don’t usually shy away from much. I have administrated medicine for a diabetic cat as well. I believe animals are our family and I will love them as you do as well. I have three kids and they will be with me at times. They all love animals and help with the animals we have at home. I have a decent amount of knowledge about animals and feel comfortable having them in my home as well. What separates me from other walkers or boarding? Not sure I could answer that. I’ll always be honest and informative with you about your animals. Look forward to meeting and caring for you and your animals needs.
