Dog Walkers in Amston, CT

About: I’m experienced with High energy breeds and dogs of all temperaments. I have cared for a spirited German short haired pointer daily since she was a puppy, ensuring her exercise and play needs were met to support her older owner. I’ve also cared for various needy dogs, tailoring playtime to their unique energy levels whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or puzzle toys. Beyond exercise, I provide plenty of cuddles to make dogs feel loved while their owners are away. My goal is to provide your dog with the same love and attention that you do! My schedule is mostly flexible. I am able to accommodate weekday bookings and weekends with advance notice. I can also offer holiday care when requested. I have experience with dogs that have a tendency to pull on the lead during walks. I have learned the best way to handle this is to shorten the leash, offer positive affirmations and treats for good behavior. Tell me more about your dog so I can ensure they will be safe!

“Amazing!”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Even through college and grad school, I had roommates with pets. Now I’m living in a rental that doesn’t allow animals, so I’m hoping to find some local pets to care for and spend time with! I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages and activity levels since I was young, and I enjoy taking dogs for walks any time of year! I’m a middle school teacher, so I have a pretty consistent schedule from August-June. Most days I’m able to leave work by 3, so I have all afternoon and evening to care for pets. In the summer and on breaks, I have a lot more flexibility with my schedule. I do have a small fenced in yard in case I had a client’s pet in my home, though I’d more than likely care for the pets in the client’s home. I have experience feeding, bathing, crating, giving meds, walking, and snuggling dogs of all ages and activity levels, as well as feeding and giving meds to cats.

About: I love animals & have had many--from turtles & fish to cats & dogs & goats. Its such a pleasure to tend to them & just be with them. I'm super responsible & your pet will be my priority the entire time you are away. It will be such fun! Experience with older dogs & cats as well as special needs dogs & cats :) I only accept 30 minute drop-ins and walks within a 5 mile radious from my home. Over 5 mile radius requires a 45 minute or an hour walk or drop in! I am a freelance worker which gives me ample opportunity to accommodate to your pet's and your schedule needs. I have a very flexible schedule. Since I myself have had stay-in-sitters for my pets; I know how important it is to have a truly attentive & responsible sitter in order to relax while you are away. While you are away I will ensure that your pets daily feeding, walking & companionship needs are met. WE will have such a great time together!

“Scout is always happiest on days he gets to walk with Rachel! She is the best to work with and our puppy absolutely loves her. She takes him for a nice long walk and lets him explore. Always updates us with any and all info and how the walk went. We love going through the pictures she sends us of our dog while she is with him!”

“This was my first time Kristen visited my fur baby. She was prompt and followed directions. I could tell from my pups pictures that she was happy to be with Kristen. Our meet and great and getting to know Kristen a bit gave me a sense of confidence l, responsibility and love of animals. I will definitely use Kristen again and again”

About: I’ve taken care of numerous types of dogs and cats since 2019. I can provide oral medications and injections to animals, as well as care for elderly dogs and dogs with special needs. I am currently a graduate student at Bryant University pursuing actuarial science. I love taking care of animals when I am not at work or my classes. I work hard to ensure that the animals are well taken care of and given plenty of pets. I also ensure that the houses I stay at are as clean as possible.

About: I have had pets my whole life ranging from dogs to reptiles to even birds! It is safe to say I am an animal lover. My family has always had dogs from young puppies all the way to seniors with special needs so my experience goes all the way back to childhood. In the past I have spent time volunteering training stray dogs and I also started a small pet sitting business in college. My mother-in-law lives in the apartment downstairs from us with her two older pups who we adore, especially my almost 2 year old son who can't get enough of them. I am a stay at home mom to my almost 2 year old son, so as I am not working I have a very flexible schedule and can make most arrangements for pet care work! Your pet will never be lonely in my home as we are mostly around during the day and always home at night. My home is in a wooded area on about an acre of land, plenty of space for your pet to sniff around and explore! My mother-in-law lives in our basement apartment with her two sweet dogs who I can easily keep separate from your pups, or if you think your pups would enjoy some company I can always introduce them. The house is large with lots of cozy nooks to relax in and plenty of space to play. Your pup would be well cared for and walked as much as you’d prefer. We'd love your pup as if they were our own, especially my son who is absolutely obsessed with dogs! We'd always make sure to honor and respect your wishes for how your pup is cared for and send you lots of pictures and videos so you never feel too far away!

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. When I was a child, I read dog breed books for fun and told my mom I was going to have 10 dogs when I grew up. I've always been the go to person for my friends and family to watch, walk and play with their dogs and cats. I also have two of my own- Simba and Elsa! Simba is a shih tzu/poodle mix and Elsa is a corgi/cattledog mix. They're my babies! I absolutely love spending time with animals - it always makes my day better :) I am currently working part time so, I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups and cats! Just let me know when you need me! I am very flexible when it comes to pet care. I'm open to following any specific instructions that are needed. I am able to crate your dog when not home if needed, walk, train, provide enrichment, etc. I also have experience handling reactive dogs. My corgi/cattle dog mix as been reactive towards dogs since I got her and so, I am very comfortable handling reactive dogs.

About: Hi there! I grew up in a dog-loving household with small breeds, mostly pugs and French bulldogs. After graduating college I adopted a Australian Cattle Dog from animal rescue that turned out to have fear aggression with other dogs. I engaged in professional dog training to mitigate my dog’s behavior and am since experienced in walking/handling dogs with aggression issues. My current dogs are a dixie dog rescue Satski and a Springer Spaniel Mabel. I love dogs of all sizes and also regularly help my Mom with her two frenchies (Marcel is pictured in my profile photo). I love long walks with dogs especially on trails in our local State Forests. If you need an experienced walker for your dog, whether it’s the in the neighborhood or on the trails, please get in touch! Weekdays between 7am and 4pm are my current availability. Able to arrange long walks and hikes, let me know if your pup likes to go the distance! I have a fenced in yard for our two dogs. I am experienced walking breeds from Yorkies to Labs. I am confident around all dogs including those with special needs. I am sensitive to dog aggressiveness and am able to safely walk and assert myself and your dog. Some of my best dog buds have had issues and I can give them the great walk they deserve!

About: I have experience with pets of all kinds — high-energy dogs who need long hikes and treat-based enrichment, small animals and cats I’ve grown up with, and senior dogs who need a softer touch. I take pride in tuning in to each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s adventure, comfort, or calm companionship. I work from home Monday and Friday where my morning starts with letting my dog out, feeding our guinea pigs, and letting our turkeys out into their pen. Saturday and Sunday are usually weather dependent. If it’s bad weather out I will break out the snuffle mat for some mental stimulation for my dog. If it’s nice I usually go on at least one long hike. Pets kept overnight will be kept in the spare bedroom, which has a bed they can sleep on, or space for a crate. I have one which can be used if pet is crate trained. During the work day they will be kept separate from my dog using gates and dogs get to run around in our fenced in yard.

About: Hi! I’m Eryn-your dogs new favorite walking buddy! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys staying active, so long walks, playtime, and keeping up with energetic pups are right up my alley. Whether your dog is big, small, shy, or super playful, I’m confident and calm handling all kinds of temperments-even those who might come off a little strong at first. I’m strong enough to manage large breeds and gentle enough to make even nervous dogs feel safe and loved. You can count on me to treat your pet like family, giving them the attention, exercise, and care they deserve! I’m currently a college student and offer dog walking services full-time during my seasonal breaks-Summer and Winter. During those times, I’m have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for walks, drop ins, or longer visits. I’m naturally nurturing and attentive to every pets needs-whether it’s making sure they’re fed on time, responding to cues when they need to go out, or simply giving them affection and companionship. I stay aware of each dogs body language and behavior to ensure they feel safe, secure, and cared for at all times. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet with the same love and attention id give my own :)

About: Hello everyone, My name is Kristen, I'm an outdoorsy, fitness fanatic with a love and passion for animals! I grew up with lots of dogs, my experience in pet care is from years of caring for my own animals, friends and family's too, as well as volunteering at animal shelters over the years. My husband and I recently decided to start a family, so I decided to focus on animal care full time instead of my busy office job. On the side of watching pups, I am a personal trainer, I would absolutely love taking your dog/dogs on walks, runs, hikes. We have a beautiful house on almost 2 acres of land. I live near multiple parks (and dog parks) and scenic walking/hiking trails. I love animals and I can't wait to care for yours!
