Dog Walking Amherst

About: I am a dog mom to 2 reactive dogs, so I'm patient and understanding of different types of behaviors in dogs. I will care for your fur baby like they're mine! I am currently only working part-time, so I will have plenty of time for your fur babies! Very open to different schedules that suit both of our needs I will always send updates and pictures from my time with your pet. I understand the stress of having a stranger care for your fur family members, and I will of course care for them like they're my own!

About: I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During undergrad, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I just graduated from undergrad and will be moving to Knoxville to start my Masters program at the University of Tennessee in August. I have classes at night and will be working 4 hours a day, so I have flexibility to care for your pet(s)! Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors.

“Hannah has been great since the first day she started! She loves the dogs and she gets them out for nice walks while I am unable to walk them. She shows up at the agreed upon time and is very reliable! Hannah is definitely a great dog walker.”

About: We’re proud parents to a lively crew: 3 dogs, 3 cats, a sweet tarantula, a curious bearded dragon, and a hamster—so we’re no strangers to different personalities, species, and care routines. Whether your pet needs belly rubs, quiet snuggles, medication, or a bit of extra patience, we’re happy to tailor the experience to meet their needs as we work from home we can provide 24/7 attention. My husband and I both work from home, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship 24/7. We also have 2 adult children who live at home to supplement snuggles and playtime. This also allows for time to send you pictures and videos of your loved ones. We have a fully fenced-in backyard that's perfect for playtime, potty breaks, and safe outdoor fun in our pesticide-free yard. Additionally, we have a split level home if your pet needs some space from our pets. We treat every pet like family, and we'd love to welcome yours into our home or care for them in yours!

“We've had Gabriella for just over a week, and she has fit right in with our Lila. We are very pleased with her professionalism and personality!”

“Lauren is great with my boys. They just loved her. She took them to the park near by so they could take them on a good walk. Unfortunately our townhome complex is small and doesn’t have sidewalks and area for walking but Lauren made it happen. Thank you.”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a lot of trust, so I focus on providing not only safe and reliable care but also plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they can feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I also believe in keeping owners updated with regular messages and photos, giving you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. As a lifelong animal lover, I have experience caring for a variety of pets and understand the importance of maintaining consistent routines, monitoring behavior, and paying attention to the small details that keep pets healthy and comfortable. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my part-time job. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure I have plenty of time to provide dependable care, attention, and companionship for the pets I look after. I am organized, responsible, and committed to following each pet’s routine, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make sure every pet receives the time and attention they deserve. Currently, I am available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays anytime, but my schedule should open up even more soon as I am planning to leave my job. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while also keeping their environment clean and safe. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Colby was great! Offered a meet and greet which I appreciate. Was punctual, professional, and had good communication sending pictures and the map of the walk.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past few eyes and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I have been in your shoes trying to find the right person, too! I regularly pet sit for friends & family and genuinely love spending time with animals. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can easily swing by to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and company while you’re away! I currently work from home so I can swing by early in the mornings or late afternoon to hang out with your pet or go on walks. Or, swing by mid afternoon. I am usually open most weekends. When caring for pets in a clients home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I will also make to keep the home tidy and provide as many updates/pictures as you would like!

“I am always more at ease when Hila is looking after my fur-baby! She gives me updates so I don't worry, and she loves on my doggy bunches so that she is well and happy when I get back!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and dependable dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have my own 80 lb Husky/German Shepherd mix, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet.

I have a flexible daily schedule & can work with you to accommodate your pets needs. Mornings & afternoons are ideal, but can work with you if evenings are needed.

I understand how important it is to trust the person staying in your space and caring for your animal. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while keeping their routines as normal as possible. I’m very considerate, clean, and respectful of others’ homes, and I take the responsibility seriously from start to finish.

About: With three years of dog sitting and walking under my belt, I've honed a knack for understanding and catering to each dog's unique personality. What really sets me apart is my experience with anxious dogs; I've developed strategies to help them feel safe and secure, turning potentially stressful situations into positive experiences. Whether it's a playful puppy or a wise senior, I adapt my approach to meet their specific needs, ensuring they're not just cared for, but truly happy.

Your pet's well-being is my utmost concern.

About: Since I was a kid my idol has always been Steve Irwin, and his admiration and respect for all animals, even dressing up as him with my brothers to go out into nature and learn about all different kinds firsthand. I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of raising just about every kind of domestic animal excluding cattle and horses. So, whether it lives on land, swims in the sea, or soars through the skies, I’ve got it covered, furry, scaled, or feathered. I’ve house sat and taken care of pets for friends and family, since I was a teenager, of all different mannerisms from ghostly skittish to aggressively friendly, rest assured me and your pet will get along just fine. I’m the one you hear people referring to when they say “They usually aren’t this friendly with strangers.” I currently am only working 3 days out of the week, so Friday through Monday I am mostly free to take care of any pets that need looked after in your absence. I have grown up and raised just about every animal you can think of, from rodents to reptiles, birds, cats, dogs and everything in between apart from large cattle and horses, but I love them all the same. I will do my absolute best to ensure that your pet’s wants and needs are met and their daily routines kept uninterrupted in your stead. I do prefer to be introduced to them and shown around their environment prior to taking full care of them so that I may take notes, learn about them, and have a chance to make friends with them before they are left in my care, so that I may ensure they don’t even notice you’re gone. Care for your pets would include ensuring they have access to clean fresh water, food eaten/made available, litterboxes emptied/taken to the bathroom, any medications given, and that ample playtime/pets given for their much needed exercise.

About: Animals are my passion. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and currently have 3 dogs and two cats of my own. I have a senior dog that requires daily medications, with a specialty in hiding the pill 🤭. I also foster dogs for local rescues and shelters and will dog sit when other fosters are out of town. I truly can’t wait to spoil your fur baby. They give love with no conditions and deserve the same back ❤️. I have the flexibility to drop in as needed! I do have a young child and am usually not able to do overnight stays at this point, but will update as that becomes available in the future. Volunteering in the local shelter has given me some experience in making a dog that I meet for the first time more comfortable. I’m happy to do whatever your pet needs to feel at ease.

About: I have been caring for and loving cats, dogs, birds and once a baby skunk since i was a kid. I love all animals domestic and wild. I have raised batches of kittens and found wonderful homes, cared for sick cats/dogs, raised and rehabilitated a orphaned baby skunk, and volunteered with various types of animals. I have had a life filled with laughter and love because of the animals in my life. I will love and do all that is needed to protect your baby while in my care to give you peace of mind while you are away. Welcome to my pet sitting service! As a dedicated professional with a passion for caring for both animals and children, I understand the importance of providing a nurturing environment.

About: Hi there! I’m a passionate and experienced dog lover with years of hands-on care for a wide range of breeds from energetic puppies to senior dogs over 10 years old. Thanks to my medical background, I’m fully comfortable providing care for dogs with special medical needs, including administering medications and managing health routines with confidence and compassion. Your pup will have plenty of space to play and explore in my fully fenced-in yard, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise with regular walks or runs, depending on their energy level. Whether your dog loves to play, snuggle, or just enjoy a calm, structured environment, I tailor my care to fit their unique personality and needs. Most importantly, I’m committed to treating every dog as if they were my own—with love, patience, and the highest level of care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member and help provide the safe, happy experience they deserve. I am waiting to begin a job after my recent doctoral graduation, so I am available seven days a week at all times throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I only take on a manageable number of dogs at a time to ensure personalized care and attention. My home features a large, fully fenced-in yard for secure outdoor play, and I supervise all activity closely. I maintain a calm, structured environment that reduces stress and supports positive behavior. With my medical background, I’m also confident in recognizing signs of discomfort, injury, or illness early—and I’m experienced in administering medications when needed. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, building trust through patience, consistency, and lots of love

About: I’ve loved animals as long as I can remember and thought I might become a vet when I was a kid. I had the best cat ever for 17 years and especially love long walks with dogs. I currently work from home and can easily schedule walks or visits as needed. My schedule is flexible in the evenings and on weekends as well. I will take excellent care of your pets. I am respectful and will follow your guidelines to the letter. I am tidy and will respect your home.

“Lynnette is a gem - organized, professional, kind, and so sweet with my Melvin. She’s immediately trustworthy the moment you meet her, which is such a comfort when you’re away or out of town and need to ask for help. I wouldn’t think twice about partnering with her again!”
