Dog Walking Apponaug

About: Ive been taking care of family pets for years and I enjoy spending time with them! Animals are my passion and I’ve earned the experience of taking care of them. This is my part-time job, which means my schedule is very flexible and easy to work around. I’m able to adjust my availability to meet your needs, whether that’s weekdays, weekends, mornings, or evenings! I have had a dog for around 10 years and I’ve seen the way he’s grown from pup to a big dog. I’ve also taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs that are smaller. With this, I can promise that your pets will be safe with me!

“Libby loved having Michelle take her out for a walk while I am busy at work. Michelle clearly loves dogs and I felt very confident having her come to my house and take my fur baby on an adventure. The picture from the walk we’re great 😁”

About: I've been raised with dogs and cats since day one. They are part of my DNA. I'm kind and caring and will treat your pet like my own. I am pet free for the very first time. Your pet will be my total priority. Call me, Jean. I have great references. I'm trained in first aid I am retired from Alaska Airlines. I make several week long trips a year. Otherwise I am close at hand to meet your needs at your home or mine. My bungalow is fenced in and has good dog walking areas surrounding the property. I normally take my pets to the beach 2 blocks from my home. Walking intervals are every 3 hours unless more is needed.

“Jen is wonderful and has a great calm energy which is a good fit for my pupper. Honey is a little clingy with her humans but by the second walk she was confident with Jen and she got in a great walk. As I am not fully mobile at the moment, having someone to walk the pupper is essential and much appreciated!!”

About: I have grown up around and with dogs, have experience with many different sizes and breeds. I have experience and time taking care of every temperament. A general love and care for animals and pets. Your furry friend is my priority and fits with my availability and attention to ensure every party feels comfortable with the attention and love they receive I usually focus on care for dogs with making sure they are comfortable so if they need food, water, outside time or play, pets, or just a bathroom break, they will get it.

About: I have lived with, raised, and cared for multiple dogs at once for my entire life. I have grown up with retrievers, shibas, Rhodesian ridgebacks, and all manner of rescues. As a dog sitter, I have walked, played with, and done multi-day overnights with all kinds of canines, from timid greyhounds to rambunctious collies. I lead an active lifestyle and take my shiba for at least three 2-mile walks each day, plus weekend hikes and trips to the dog park. I am a freelance writer, so I have a very flexible schedule. The highlight of my day is walking my dog and, ideally, meeting new dogs along the way. I feel like Rover is the perfect way to spend time with dogs and help their time-pressed owners. I will follow any and all instructions left by the owners. I always keep dogs leashed, prevent them from eating foreign objects, and otherwise prioritize their safety at all times.

About: I've had dogs since the day I was born and they have always been the best part of my day, every day. I am experienced with caring for dogs of all sizes and just raised my first puppy so I have puppy experience as well. I treat every dog like they are my own and would love the opportunity to meet and care for your furry best friends. I'm currently between jobs so I am available Monday - Friday during working hours (9am-5pm) and a bit later on into the night as well. I will come to your home for drop ins and walks and will follow your typical routine to make your pup as comfortable as possible.

About: My family and I have fostered dogs and cats, and litters of puppies and kittens since I was nine years old. Being homeschooled for a majority of my childhood, I was able to learn about taking care of these needy animals at such a young age. We have fostered dogs and cats of almost all ages, from newborns to adults. Even during the years, my family and I fostered these animals, I’ve had multiple neighbors at a time rely on me to visit and walk their dogs while they’re at work. That is how I got my first job at 11 years old. I’m out of school for the summer, so I am free practically whenever your pups need me! I can drop in/walk daily or weekly, whatever works for you! With my school and work schedule and the living situation I’m in, I don’t currently offer boarding services, but that may change in the future!

“Kyleigh is fantastic! On time, reliable, and great with my dog. She’s trustworthy, caring, and clearly loves what she does. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable dog walker!”

About: With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for dogs of every breed and temperament, I bring the kind of calm, reliable presence that pets respond to immediately. Caring for pets is what I do every day, full time. I've structured my life around it — and occasional remote work in television keeps me close to home, which means your dog is never far from someone who's paying attention. Your pet stays exactly where they're most comfortable — home. Whether it's a quick check-in, a long walk, or an overnight stay, I come to you. I follow your routines, respect your space, and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going. Your home stays your home. Your pet stays stress-free."

About: I have worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility in North Kingstown for more than 10 years! Due to my experience, I have worked with dogs of all sizes, shapes, ages, personalities, etc. Between the dogs at my job, the care I have done for clients through Rover in the past and my own pets at home, I have a ton of experience caring for animals. I will treat your pets as if they were my own! I work the afternoon/evening shift at my job, but my mornings are open to those who are looking for pet care on the earlier side! I do have some weekend availability. Don't hesitate to send a message, and I can try to accommodate to the best of my ability! I will take your pet for a nice walk (at their pace, for their comfort) around the neighborhood or to their favorite spot, or spend my time playing/giving company to your pet when you're not home. My attention stays on the animal at all times as you never know what pets will try to get into. If there are any concerns, I will immediately notify you and thoroughly check the animal if necessary (to their comfort level, I will not push an animal to let me examine them but will promptly let owners know of any concerns and take necessary steps to ensure the animals safety.) I can offer water or food at your request and give medication if ever needed with your instructions.

About: I’ve worked in the human health care even though I have always had a passion for animal care. I am now a stay at home mom so I’ll be home with your dog always unless I have an errand to run! I have owned multiple pets of my own for the last 14 years. My dad’s dog was blind and had diabetes (administering insulin) so I have experience in extra care for animals. I recently lost both my dogs due to cancer and seizures so I’d love to have some dog company. Also please know If your pup is good with kids, we have a 2 year old at home. I will use my passion for animals and integrity to care for your pet(s)! You can trust me with your fur babies.❤️ I am currently a stay at home mom so I’ll always be home with your pup/ dog unless I have to run a quick errand. I have many years in experience in handling big and small size dogs as well as all energy types. I also have a fenced in yard.

About: I am a current PhD student at Brown University with over a decade of experience caring for animals. I volunteered at my local humane society for a few years, working with both cats and dogs (including under-socialized animals). I have participated in numerous trainings and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. I currently have a cat of my own named Gouda (he’s a typical orange cat!) who is my world. I will treat your furbaby like my own - with love, respect, and care. I love all types of animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am a full-time student with tons of time over the summer when I work part-time. My schedule is very flexible (not a normal 9-5) so I can meet almost any scheduling ask. I would love to fill my free time with dogs and cats! I build trust with dogs and cats by moving slow, reading and respecting your pets body language, and staying calm to ensure that we are both safe.

About: I have over 12 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide feeding, walks, drop in visits, playtime, enrichment, and medication administration with patience and care. I grew up with two Dachshunds and two Border Collies, which gave me experience with both energetic working dogs and smaller companion breeds. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from pugs to Bernese Mountain Dogs, as well as young cats, senior cats, and foster cats preparing for their forever homes. What sets me apart is my calm, structured, and dependable approach. I understand how important routines are for pets and work hard to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also clean, tidy, respectful in clients’ homes, and committed to providing trustworthy care you can rely on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining consistent care schedules. I am a teacher with the summers off. I prioritize reliability, communication, and routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m flexible with walks, drop ins, and feeding schedules. I make sure each pet gets individual attention, exercise, affection, and care based on their specific needs and energy level. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any household rules to keep pets comfortable. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior so I can respond calmly and appropriately to their needs. I keep homes clean and tidy, ensure doors and gates are secure. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect.

About: I have taken care of family members’s, family friends’, and neighbor’s dogs since I was 12. My older sister has four Huskies and I have helped take care of them and birth them! I also have a childhood family Beagle! I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs since and would love to take care of and walk more! I am a student at URI and have online class so I have plenty of time for walks! I have class every morning, but afternoons are open for me and can be flexible for some mornings. I go on daily walks and runs in my beautiful neighborhood and would love to bring some pups with me! Whether it’s my neighborhood or yours!

About: I have had dogs my entire life. They are my favorite thing in the whole world. I signed up for rover because it is a way to make money while spending time with your adorable doggies! I will walk, feed, and belly-rub any and all dogs that come my way. I am also open to any special accommodations one might need. Available most nights and weekends, and still some mornings/weekdays. I am open to any breeds, and just ask that you be honest with your dogs comfortably level with new people for all safety. I will provide the absolute best care possible for your loved ones, and they will make my day better too! :) I have two dogs and a cat (who very much believes is a dog), however I have just moved out of my family home 4 months ago, and miss having them around. I have had dogs my whole life and fell in love with cats the past 6 years since getting my Ringo. I fostered cats in college and am regularly around my dogs, my bfs, and friends. And always willing to give some good scratches when they are willing. I would love to host your pets and treat them as my own for whatever time being! I am always sure to be in eye sight of the pet to provide the highest safety for them possible, and disrupt any trouble that could become. I like to see dogs play and know they have my attention.
