Dog Walking Ashbrook-Clawson Village

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs and my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique needs, personality, and energy level. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also have a background in nursing, which makes me especially comfortable caring for pets who require strict medication schedules, administering medications, and closely following specific care instructions. I’m comfortable with special diets and giving extra attention to dogs with specific health or care needs. I have experience with dogs at all life stages, from young pups who need patience, consistency, and structure to senior dogs who may need a gentler pace, closer monitoring, and a little extra comfort. One of my biggest strengths is being able to match a dog’s energy. I’m just as happy spending a calm day on the couch with a relaxed pup as I am playing fetch at the park for hours with a high-energy dog. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish, so I’m comfortable communicating with families whose primary language at home is Spanish and caring for dogs who may be more familiar with Spanish cues. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, understood, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. 🐾❤️ As a full time remote student, I spend most of my day at home studying, baking and playing video games, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care for pets throughout the day. My flexible schedule makes it easy to incorporate regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and walks into my routine. I’m home the majority of the time, so pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can get plenty of supervision, companionship, and engagement. Whether it’s sticking to a specific routine or giving extra attention to more active dogs, I can easily adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs. My apartment community includes a fully fenced dog park perfect for quiet, one on one playtime in the mornings or socializing with other dogs in the afternoons. I also have a secure, dog friendly balcony that gets plenty of direct sunlight, ideal for pups who enjoy relaxing and sunbathing. For dogs that need more exercise, I’m located right along the rail trail in Southend, making it easy to provide longer, scenic walks as part of their daily routine.

About: Growing up in a dog-centric household, I learned from a young age how to work with puppies and dogs of all ages. I’ve house-sat and watched family and friend’s dogs consistently over the last 10 years, all while doing volunteer work at the local animal shelter. Many times I’ve had dog owners tell me that their dogs don’t usually like strangers, but they feel at-ease with me. I have a lot of experience reading and understanding canine body language, so your pets are in good hands. I currently work full-time, but am able to work remotely when needed. Currently, Thursday-Sundays would work best for me if you need any housesitting or animal care services including walking or bathroom, but have my calendar open for other days/times. I’m very attentive to animal safety when dealing with pets. Unless otherwise instructed, I will keep pets leashed and away from other dogs. Additionally, I will strictly adhere to any nutritional requirements and understand your pet’s current dietary or medicinal needs before working with your pet. Pets have always been family to me, and the treatment of your dog will be held to my same standard.

About: I’m experienced with different dog breeds, and ages. I’m also a foster for Mecklenburg County Animal Care & Control and Union County Humane Society. Have fostered week old puppies to senior dogs and cats! I am currently in between jobs so I can work around any schedule! I am definitely a morning person but don’t have any preference time wise. I have been a foster for different shelters where I have learned how to take care of different breeds and work with their needs! I love going on walks and having play time with pets

About: As a dependable and attentive pet sitter, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I pride myself on providing personalized care, whether that means sticking to your pet’s routine, administering medication, maintaining training consistency, or making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m highly organized, communicative, and understand that trust and peace of mind are just as important for pet parents as they are for their pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently in a fully remote position, so I am very flexible to your schedule and needs. I am able to house sit, stop by during the day, and take plenty of walk and play breaks with your pet! As a cat owner myself, I understand the importance of routine, comfort, and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule for feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and any special care needs. I take time to learn each cat’s personality and provide the attention they need, while keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind.

“Hilda is great! Daisy enjoyed her walks, our cat got some attention too which I’m sure he loved. Totally had peace of mind while out of town.”

About: I've been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. Growing up, I helped care for our family dogs, a Golden Retriever named Miley, followed by Henry and a beagle terrier mix Tippy. I did feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I also had two guinea pigs, which taught me the importance of consistency and attention to detail when caring for pets. Over the years, I've also helped friends and family with pet sitting, feeding, walking, and checking in on their pets while they were away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members as if they were their own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a cat owner, I spend time each day feeding, playing with, and caring for my cat, as well as keeping her environment clean and comfortable. I also enjoy being active and getting outside, so dog walks fit easily into my schedule. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to provide attentive care, check-ins, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner's instructions and routines. In a client's home, I make sure pets stay comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter approach, I'm happy to adapt to their individual personality and needs.

“Kim is reliable, punctual, and great with Banks! She comes twice a week to walk our dog and is always on time or early, communicates timely, and even offered to come meet us and Banks prior to establishing a recurring walk. Highly recommend!”

He was always on time and left me messages every day. I would definitely recommend him. He provided a perfect no stress service. Thank you, Peyton. Pluto will miss you.”
