“Breanna is an excellent Dog walker. She has taken such good care of our dog. Archie loved her. She was attentive to Archie and even played with him for a few minutes after a couple of his walks because of the weather. She filled up his water when he was out too. We will definitely be booking her again.”

About: Hi! I go by Kat and since I was ten I've been around animals, from living on a farm with three Great Pyrenees, four Australian Shephards, two Pugs, and two chihuahuas and numerous litters and a cat rescue of twenty-six cats to my current situation of three dogs and six cats. I have also owned rats, mice, rabbits, and a gecko, so I have experience with all sorts of pets. Aside from what I own, I have cared for cockatiels, doves,geckos, a lorikeet, great danes, and pittbulls. I also worked at a vet office for a year before I started college, and seven months at a cat hospital in Maine. Currently I'm unemployed but am looking for a night shift part time job! I work part time nights only and am available all weekend, Friday through Sunday, full time, so I will have plenty of time to ensure your pets will be well cared for! I am very flexible with how to care for pets, from crate training to leashed walks or free roaming. My animals are a mixture of them all, crate trained when guests are over and free-roaming during the day when I'm outside with them.

“Emily helped me out in a pinch with a very last minute request. I appreciated the pictures she sent throughout the walk and her willingness to help out. Would def reach out to Emily again for future needs.”

Now 21, I have over 15 years of animal care experience by helping the pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I have my Girl Scout Bronze Award for setting up a pet fair that helped raise awareness and funds for local organizations that benefit animals. I am accustomed to training new pets and ensuring that senior pets get the best care they need. I can walk, feed, play, and do anything you may need to ensure that your pet is well taken care of while you are away. I am currently working part time, which entails that I have a very flexible schedule and am able to make anything work. I am willing to sit at my own residence and yours. I also have experience with house sitting. I am so excited to get to work caring for your furry friends! My schedule is very flexible which means I have plenty of time to spare on making sure your pets are okay and taken care of. I do work mostly in the evenings, only about 2-3 days a week but am never there past 8pm. I am essentially open from morning until evening nearly all day every day.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for and walking my own pets as well as helping friends and family with theirs. I have had the privilege of taking care of my own pets since I was just about 5 years old. I’m comfortable with different sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I understand the importance of patience. I have a full time job as a caregiver, but I work doubles, so that I have more days off. I’d love to spend my days off taking care of your fur babies! I work mostly second shifts on the days I do not work doubles. I’m available in most mornings other than Tuesdays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions (if applicable), walking routines, and house rules provided by the owner. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and bathroom breaks while maintaining a safe and secure environment. I always double check doors, leashes, and gates for safety. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet friendly space. I ensure pets have supervised time, regular potty breaks, fresh water at all times, and structured walks or playtime based on their energy level. I monitor interactions closely and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations.

“Rusty has been walking my dog for the past year, and I couldn’t ask for a better dog-walker! He’s reliable, flexible, and got along great with my pup. We are moving away from the area, and I wish we could take him with us. Highly recommend, your dog will be in great hands!”
