Dog Walking Alleghany West

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10! I’ve always had 3-4 pets at a time so I understand the high/low maintenance, the picky eaters, and the ones that need medical assistance. I personally have dogs that have medical issues and have to make sure their needs are met constantly. I’ve worked on a farm so I have great experience with all types of animals. Neighbors and friends rely on me #1 to walk, play, feed, and take care of their pets. I currently work part time. I will have plenty of time during the day to play, feed, walk your pups! I’m an early bird so if you’re looking for someone early in the mornings, I’m your girl! I will follow whatever your protocol is for your pets! I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with me. I look forward to meeting all of your furry friends!

“Areana has been absolutely amazing with my pup Chloe! She has done overnights, drop ins and walks and each time she has gone above and beyond for Chloe. Chloe has health issues and she is a reactive dog. Areana was very attentive to all her needs and communicated with me frequently. I would recommend Areana to anyone in need of someone to care for their fur babies!”

About: Having grown up with a dog in the home, I love the little moments of joy with our canine friends but also understand the attention and care each dog needs. Whether your pet is rambunctious and playful or needs more gentle care, let me know how I can best make them comfortable and happy. My availability varies seasonally; I'm an educator, so normally my weekday availability is limited to late afternoons and evenings. Weekends are very clear and flexible for me. In the summer, my schedule is wide open, so feel free to book me for those much-needed summer vacations! When I am dropping in to your place or staying to house sit, I approach your pet -- especially one who's new to me -- with care and gentleness. I double-check instructions each day to make sure I provide top-quality care.

“Danielle had been great with Okami. He's usually very reserved and defensive with new people. But he warned up to her in just two walks. Bonus is that she takes tons of photos.”

“Amy was wonderful and Odie loved his walk”

“My dogs liked Sabin immediately. My timid pup let Sabin pick him up, which he is normally very worried about even with me. Sabin is responsible, attentive and has positive energy that all of us appreciate! I highly recommend him!”

“Lauren was so attentive with our active Dutch shepherd ! I usually do not leave her with just anyone because she can be quirky but Lauren was amazing! We would love to book her again!”

About: 📍Philadelphia + surrounding areas. I’m not your average sitter—I go the extra paw! I’ll treat every pet like my own furry family. 🐶 Whether your pup needs a brisk walk or a belly rub break, I tailor each visit to their paw-sonality. 🐱 I’m the purr-fect match for cats too—playful, patient, and totally tuned into their moods. 🏠 I’m a clean, respectful house guest who keeps things tidy and tails wagging. 💊 Got a senior pet or one with meds? No prob-llama! I’m experienced and calm under pressure. 📸 And yes, you’ll get plenty of photo pupdates and meow-ments while you’re away! I work in hospitality and am busy in the office but happy to stop by before and/or after work + the weekends. Before work would be 6am-8am and evenings would be 6pm-8pm. I won't be able to bring pets into my home because of my dog. However, in another person's home I'll be sure to listen to their instruction and try to best meet the needs of their pet.

“Olivia was great taking care of Copper, I appreciated the pictures from their walks and feedback!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to three wonderful cats, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including walking dogs, caring for cats during vacations, and looking after puppies and dogs with all types of different personalities. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving oral medication to my own cats, and providing lots of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and photo updates. I’ve also worked with anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and helping them feel secure. Whether your pet loves adventure or prefers a quiet companion, I’ll care for them so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re getting lots of love, attention, and probably a few extra belly rubs (if they’re into that!) Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work full-time, but I work from home twice a week, which gives me extra flexibility to provide additional attention and care during those days. I’m also available for morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. When I’m caring for your pet, I’ll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I’ll always communicate clearly and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, respect your home as if it were my own, and take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether that means giving medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or providing extra patience for an anxious pet, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Great work!! Thank you”

“I ended up booking this the wrong way and I booked it as a walking so it cost me way more but it was worth it knowing that my baby was in good hands while I watched a concert. My walker was patient kind and did everything I asked and my dog came back happy happy happy. What more can a puppy parent want? She was fabulous. BOOK THIS YOUNG LADY!!!!”

About: Hi, my name's Gabe! I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and developed a fierce love for them! I'm currently enrolled in school pursuing a veterinary tech license. I usually spend my free time pet sitting for both family and friends, and I've previously worked in another pet care company here in Center City. Outside of school and work, I enjoy playing quadball and writing. I'm excited to meet your furry buddy! I’m able to give pet care a consistent and dedicated place in my daily routine. I make sure their needs like feeding, cleaning, and spending quality time together are handled on a schedule. I check in with them throughout the day to keep an eye on their health and behavior, and I stay on top of tasks like litter box maintenance, grooming, and any medications or special care they might need.

“As always, Paulina was a pleasure and was extremely patient with our dog who doesn't always want to walk far. She does a great job and is super reliable and flexible!”

Carla D.

“Allison was great! She walked my Spartacus with care. And even put food and water in his bowls for him.”

CARENA S.

“Carrie was awesome! She was great at communicating, my dog was well taken care of by her. Def will be booking again!”

Catherine R.

“Rhea has just started with us walking Baker and she has been great so far - timely and clear communication. And she won over Baker very quickly!”

About: I’m a dog mom of two - that don’t like other dogs/kids, so I have experience with challenging walks. They live with their grandparents for now, so I have a lots of love, and care to give :) I work pm (3-11:30pm) shifts in center city with random days off, so I’m mostly available in mornings/overnights or certain full days when I have off. My apartment complex has a great green area around the building where I can walk my babies when they visit me. They are allowed on the bed/couch, but they like to sunbath on the fluffy carpet as well. They have a separate area in the dining room so they have space to eat peacefully. My little one also likes to hide with his treats, especially under the bed or table:) I make sure they get enough walks, even when their stomach is bad in the middle of the night. I also like to take them to the Wissahickon park, they love car rides. I would make sure other babies feel comfortable just like mines / or to create a safe and comfortable environment with lots of attention.

About: Hello! I have worked with animals all my life and realized how much of a passion I have for them! I have worked at an animal rescue, dog shelter, and have become a foster for over 200+ dogs and puppies. Currently work from home full time and care for my dogs and puppies. My day typically starts around 6:45am/7:45(at the latest) I am able to walk them, take them to my neighborhood dog park, do training, socializing and of course play/loving time. Since i am home all day i do offer to take non-potty trained dogs i will just need a heads up that they are not potty trained yet. I have had alot of experience with different temperaments, health conditions, behavioral issues, and breeds please give me notice ahead of time and I will accommodate for what will be best for you fur baby. I do have 2 dogs of my own which are very dog friendly of all sizes and ages. If you are not comfortable with your baby cross interacting NO PROBLEM! They will be in a complete different room and will get plenty of water, walks, potty breaks, and play time! I currently work from home so I am home all day to care for any and all fur babies. I currently run off of a tight schedule starting between 6:45-7:30am going up until around 11pm typically. I make sure each dog is introduced properly. Everyone must be walked on a leash and collar and/or harness at all times outside of my home. Everyone is fed in a crate or separate room unless litter mates.

“Elijah is great with my dog Beckett! They've been on a few walks together so far and I hope for them to go on many more together. Beck is a very energetic dog and we are still working on training but Elijah is very patient with him which is super appreciated.”
