Dog Walkers in Apalachin, NY

“Shannon was great with my high energy pup! She did two meet and greats to make us and Reyna feel at ease. You can tell Shannon really cares about animals and will do whatever it takes to make everyone feel comfortable. She went above and beyond by sending me pictures and a nice note about how the walk went and her communication has been great. We will definitely use Shannon again!”

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician. I am currently a pre-vet student at SUNY Binghamton. I am dedicating my life to taking care of animals. I have had a variety of pets as well as working with them in a veterinary setting such as cats, dogs, lizards, rabbits, and small mammals, just to name a few. I have experience with administering oral medications as well as injections. I have experience with dog training. I have worked with my own dogs from puppy classes to advanced training. Therefore, I am able to help you with training issues. I excited to care for your fur babies as if they are my own. I am currently on summer break from SUNY Binghamton. I am looking for a part time job at a veterinary hospital. This leaves me for your fur babies. My schedule is flexible. As a licensed veterinary technician, I am fear free certified. This means one of my jobs is to reduce the stress for your fur babies. I also have experience with working with anxious dogs and cats.

About: My name is Jess and I’m new(ish) to Broome County! I work for the county have my degree in Criminal Justice. I’ve previously worked with Rover in Denver, Colorado so this isn’t my first go-around! I've grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and now have 2 cats of my own! My mother was also a vet tech for several years and taught me how to properly interact with dogs and cats to make them feel safe and trusting in my care! It's also helpful to have her knowledge handy in case anything arises with your beloved pet that you or I may be concerned about. I also briefly worked as a secretary in a vets office in PA where i regularly handled distressed and anxious animals from cats and dogs to goats a horses! I'm comfortable walking, playing, brushing, and bathing your fur babies, whatever they may need! Expect lots of photo updates! I also have experience administering medications (injections and pills) I currently work for the county on a standard M-F 8-4 schedule. I’m awaiting a promotion that may, at times, require me to stay late if we’re in preparation for a trial but I’ll know well in advance if and when that time comes. I want to ensure you and your pet are as comfortable with my presence as possible! Please let me know of any and all rules/routines/ expectations so I can follow them accordingly!

“Terry is awesome!! We have him come to our home to walk our puppy Charley! She is only 9 weeks old and we feel very comfortable having Terry work with her. He takes great care of her and sends pictures during the walk! Terry is also excellent at responding to you right away! Charley can't wait to have him come back next week! :) I highly recommend Terry!”

About: Hi! I’m a local mom of two in the Owego area offering calm, reliable pet care. I have three cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, litter box care, and understanding different cat personalities. I’m comfortable caring for shy, independent, or more social cats. I offer drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I focus on providing a quiet, low-stress experience and only take on a small number of pets at a time so each one gets proper attention. I’m also happy to send updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already care for my three cats each day, so feeding, cleaning, and checking on pets is a regular part of my life. I’m available for drop-in visits during the day after 9am and can also do early evening visits if needed. I keep a flexible but structured schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they need without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and any specific needs the pet may have. I also spend time with each pet so they feel comfortable and not alone. I respect each client’s home by keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. In my own home, I care for my three cats daily, so I’m very familiar with maintaining a clean, safe, and calm environment for pets.

About: I am a lover of all pets and have experience ranging from stopping by for bathroom breaks/feeding to overnight house sitting. I have been relied on to walk, feed, and give medication to cats and dogs. I am comfortable with all size pets. I am a young adult with no children and work 8am-4pm, Monday-Friday. I am able to work from home once and month and around the holidays from September to mid-May. I work from home once a week in the summer months. I am also able to leave for lunch so I can easily pop over on my lunch break. After work, I usually just relax and go to the gym so, I would love to be accompanied by your pet! Unfortunately, someone in my household has a pet allergy, but I am more than to stay at the caregiver’s home where the pet is more comfortable. I will follow and comply to any care instructions. I respect others’ spaces and belongings and will leave your home exactly as you left it, if not cleaner (I love cleaning). I have been trusted in others home’s before and understand the significance of that trust. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away and I am happy to accommodate all needs to do so! I love cuddles and will play with them. I realize an owner’s absence is usually stressful for pets, and both you and your pet should feel like they’re in good hands! I don’t have a pet of my own, so I will love and give them all the attention they need (:

“Colleen is excellent. She took great care of my puppy. She noticed a sore/ hotspot and arranged for us to get in to see her vet the same day and even volunteered to take him if my schedule didn’t allow.”

About: I've always taken care of my family pets, and have dog-sat for family friends! I kept up with meds, food, play, and anything else the dogs needed or wanted. Anyone I've asked said that they were more than satisfied with my care. Over the summer, I'll be taking online classes and have a part-time job, so I'll be pretty flexible when it comes to stopping by or walking dogs! I unfortunately will not be able to offer services at my own home. I have dogs where that type of activity just wouldn't suite them.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Many different kinds, including dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, etc. I will treat your pet with love and kindness. I have a job where I make my own schedule. If you decide to board your pet with me, I will be on premises at all times. For boarding, I have a decent size fenced in back yard. I do have a 7 year old husky that has gone to daycare. He's been around a lot of different dogs. If your dog needs to be crated, I can do that as well. I am available to come feed your animal in your home. I can let them out and walk them if needed.

About: I've had experience with an assortment of animals for a large part of my life. I volunteered an animal shelter in Scottsville, NY for about two years walking dogs of every size and taking care of cats. I have also housed two large German Shepherds and three Dachshunds, both of which are very demanding breeds. I currently reside in Owego, NY, and I work part-time in Endicott, NY Monday through Wednesday from 8AM to 5PM. I may provide brief surfaces on evenings these days, such as a walk or stop-in. Any other day is fair game. Per the restrictions of my apartment complex, I won't be able to care for or bring pets in my home. However, I would be sure to respect any client's home I may enter.

“Maddy went above and beyond for us. We were travelling and she was kind enough to take our dogs for a walk and feed them from our hotel room while we enjoyed the NASCAR race. Maddy was very responsive and made us feel our dogs were in very good hands. I highly recommend Maddy and her exceptional services. The dogs give high paws!!”

About: I will love and take care of your dogs as if they were my own! They will get all the love and care they will possibly need while you’re away. I’ve been pet sitting for 10 years now! It’s my favorite thing to do. I know how it feels having to leave a pet and i love to give people peace of mind knowing they’re being taken care of as much as you would yourself. I have 3 dogs of my own. With that being said, having my own dogs i am not able to do overnights unfortunately! I can do drop in visits and dog walking! You won’t be disappointed with leaving you pets with me! thank you in advance and i hope to hear from you soon! I dog walk and pet sit full time so all of my time and attention will be to caring for your fur babies!! With 10 years of experience there is nothing i enjoy more than what i do!! I come to your home and take care of your pet exactly how you would take care of your pet. It’s important to keep a schedule and routine for your pet, especially when you have to leave them. That’s my main goal!

“This was my first time meeting Dana and her first time walking my dog because I am unable to do it for a few weeks. She was able to come on rather short notice. I felt very comfortable after talking to her for a few minutes and would definitely use her again!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter who’s cared for all kinds of furry (and even not-so-furry) friends — from tiny teacup pups to big energetic dogs, even a pig once! I’ve looked after cats, multiple dogs at once, and pets with different needs, personalities, and routines. Whether it’s belly rubs, special diets, medication, or playtime, I’ve got it covered. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am currently working a part-time job and going to college full-time, so I am unavailable during college, but I’m very available during the summer and my brakes off of college, and would love to help out! I feel very comfortable and confident around animals. I feel I know how to handle almost every situation. I am very friendly with with animals but I do not mind being strict if needed. If anything comes up where I feel uncertain I will be sure to call the owner as soon as possible.
