Dog Walking Athol Springs

About: I have been working with dogs since I was in 6th grade. I trained my childhood dog through a 4H program and we completed at the county fair each year in Obedience and Rally. Now I have a rescue who over the past 4 years we've helped work through a lot of reactivity and she now is an active participant in Rally competitions and other classes. As a teacher my summer is wide open for walks and drop in visits. Once the school year starts after school and weekends are open. I'm very comfortable with dogs of various sizes and needs. I can crate your furry family members, get them fed, out for walks etc. I'm comfortable with various walking equipment from harnesses to gentle leaders and collars.

“Alyssa was absolutely amazing! My dog absolutely loved his time with her. She always kept me informed with what was going on, including multiple pictures. Despite very inclement weather she still showed up and made sure Roger was taken care of! She brought towels, checked his food and water! I cannot recommend her strongly enougj”

“Sara was very responsive and asked great questions to make sure our boys had good walks. She provided great feedback so we knew how everyone was doing. We will be using Sara again!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Nafisa! I was in a pinch and needed someone to walk my dog last minute, and she showed up without hesitation. Not only was she prompt and professional, but she was incredibly kind and patient with my dog. He came back happy, relaxed, and well-exercised. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable and caring hands. It’s rare to find someone so reliable and compassionate on short notice. Highly recommend to anyone in need of a trustworthy dog walker!”

“Steve is great with our dogs - he is so caring and kind. Always offers to wipe their paws down and takes time during their walks. Steve is punctual and great at communicating. So happy we found him. Such a great guy!”

About: I’ve taken care of my aunts dogs and have dog sat many times so I know what to expect. I also hang out with my boyfriend’s dogs. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to fit pet sitting in my schedule. I will also be able to do it at any time of day. I have a very big backyard, a lot of room, and a friendly cat to keep your cat company. I will also not make your animal feel like they are alone.

About: I have always loved animals and I have been around all different breeds for most of my life. I have experience with dog sitting and walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments and am prepared to continue to do so with your pet! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to drop in and take your dog for walks at almost any time of day. I live a very active lifestyle and am prepared to walk your dog as long and far as he/she needs. I am also slightly experienced in dog training and will work with your dog on a variety of skills while they are staying with me. I am very reliable and trustworthy, while your dog is with me you will have nothing to worry about so you can enjoy your time away from home. I will also provide picture and video updates to owners to ease their minds while I am caring for their pets. I work remote three days a week and have a flexible schedule. I am also available on weekends so I can work with you to meet your needs! I’ve taken care of pets for most of my life. I am comfortable following instructions and will make sure your pet gets the care they need!

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was wee child. 8 years ago my now husband and I got our first puppy (a pitbull/rat terrier mix) named Dudley and have since grown our four legged family by four! A 3.5 year old Daniff (Great Dane/English mastiff mix) named Aspen and three domestic shorthair kitties, varying in color (an orange included), named Chug, Nova and Wee. Despite the 2 dogs, 3 cats and family I still have time to spare throughout the days; especially during the school year. I’ve been walking dogs for friends and associates for about a year and I’ve really enjoyed the freedom and relations I’ve found along the way. I have experience with dogs of all ages/sizes. From 40lb corgis to 150lb mastiffs, your pup is safe with me and will likely find a new best friend. I would love the opportunity to walk your dog or drop in for a visit/play date! **I do have a 6 year old that comes with me during the summer so I am limited to child friendly dogs during that time. My schedule is almost always open and flexible aside from not being available on weekends. I am currently unavailable on Tues, Thurs and Fri (from 11AM-12PM) for a preexisting client. Because I have 5 pets of my own, I am unable to offer services from my home. With that being said, respect is first and foremost. Your house, your pets, your rules. I always like establishing the blueprint for what my visits will look like. I, of course, am trying to cater to your pet and understand they all have different needs; some are anxious, food/treat motivated, some need lots of exercise. I assure you, no pet is too big or small for me.

About: I've had dogs (and participated in their care) since I was a kid. We've always had at least two dogs at a time since then! I'm a cat person, but all pets I meet I treat like my very own babies. At home we have 2 dogs, one high strong pit, and one fast moving lab mix. We have three domestic cats as well. Personal experience is well over 15 years, professional experience about 3-4 years collective. I previously worked for Sit 'N Stay Pet Services, so you can be assured I know what goes into a professional pet care job. I am also a Volunteer for Ten Lives Club, I have been with them for 1 year and some change so far. I also have an extensive history of volunteering at other shelters (Erie SPCA, South TX Animal Shelter, Etc). I am currently searching for a full-time job and seeking supplemental income. Rover was the perfect choice for this as an animal lover with past animal care experience. I am currently in-between jobs and awaiting starting my next one, so until then my schedule is open for whenever you need me. Safety is paramount to me. Please make sure your boundaries for your home and pets are clearly communicated. I take care making sure boundaries are respected, home environments are clean from pet messes, and of course; all your pets are safe AND happy. I have the skills to manage many tasks you may need me to complete. Cleaning messes or litter, stimulating through play and activities, ensuring there are no issues that could endanger your pets, so on and so forth. If you are hesitant on assigning a specific task, just ask me! Chances are, I won't mind going that extra step to help you feel secure and confident with me in your home and caring for your cats.

About: Hi! I’m a dental hygienist with 9 years of clinical experience, bringing that same calm, careful attention to your pets. I read each dog’s energy: some want fetch, some want a slow sniff-walk, and either way you get my full attention. What you can count on: • On-time, every visit • Photo updates so you’re never wondering • A calm presence that puts anxious pets at ease I treat every pet like my own. Looking forward to meeting your fur family! Pet care fits naturally into my routine — I have a dog of my own, so mornings and evenings already center around walks and feeding. I’ve also cared for cats my whole life, so I’m comfortable with both. I have flexibility for drop-ins and walks on weekdays and more availability on weekends. And since my own dog is all 12, I know how to adjust pace and attention for older pets — happy to tailor visits to your senior pet needs. Drop-In Visits: I stick to your pet’s normal routine: feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and some playtime or cuddles, all in the comfort of their own home. I follow any care instructions you leave (medications, feeding amounts, favorite toys) exactly as written. Dog Walking: I match the pace and route to your dog’s energy and age; brisk exercise for active pups, slower sniff-walks for seniors. I always have waste bags on hand and check in with a photo update after each walk. For both, I treat your home with respect (doors locked, alarm set if needed) and your pet like my own.

About: I adore my basset hound and english bulldog. Plus I have had experience working at a dog groomer and a doggie daycare. I have never met a dog I did not enjoy. I have recently graduated from high school and am working part time. So I have plenty of time to play with your dogs. I can be flexible with time of day to walk your dog. I care for my 2 dogs as if they are family and I will do the same for your fur babies. I give lots of snuggles, walking, and playtime.

About: I am a Hamburg resident and love all types of animals. I am the one sitting with the dog at the parties. I work a full time job but hoping to get back into the animal care buisness. I work Monday-Friday until 3pm so would be available after that and most weekends I am available! I would love to come meet your animal. I have a dog named Winston and two cats named Fez and Rue! I have a full time job as a school counselor but would like to supplement time caring for animals. I am available after work at 3pm for walks, visits, feedings. I am a Hamburg local and spend my weekend hanging with my parents and dog and cats. In care home would be meeting the dog or cat (i also have taken care of horses). Following all directions of the owner and make the pet sitting low stress and make everyone feel comfortable and cater for.

“Jessica is very friendly and took good care of our girl. She took plenty of pictures and contacted us after her stop to give us an update. Would definitely recommend!”

About: Hi there! My name is Kayla and I have been a dog lover since I got my first dog at 7 years old. I grew up with a Golden Retriever (Jeter), when he passed I was devastated, but knew I could not live without a dog in my life. I got a mini golden doodle (Rylee) who is currently 4 years old. I also ended up adopting a heeler/dachshund mix (Mavis) who is 7 months old. I have experience working with all different sized animals of all ages. I took care of my senior dog, assisting him with a broken leg and have experience with puppies and training. Pets are family and I know how important it is to find a caring and loving individual to be with your pet, let me be that person for you! I am currently a school counselor with many days off during the summer and breaks. I am able to board your furry friend on weekends and during days off! I am available every day for dog walks after 3:30pm. With my love for animals, I will ensure endless cuddles and playtime for your pet. I live on 3 acres of land with enough space for your pet to run and play. Right up the road is my mother’s house who lives on 60 acres of land and a pond if your dog likes to swim where I can take them to anytime! If your dog is crate training or trained, I would love to set that up for you.

“Erin is wonderful with my sweet but shy dog. She is patient and kind. She loves dogs and it shows! Thanks Erin!”

About: Hi there! I am a teacher who dog sits as a side job! I have plenty of experience with dogs, as my family has had three over the years, 2 golden retrievers and most recently a lab/hound mix puppy that was rescued from a shelter. I am very comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, and love taking them for walks, playing catch, etc. I also have three cats of my own of varying personalities! All three were adopted over the course of the past three years and some have special diets, so I am comfortable if your pets have allergies too! If it were a perfect world I would be a veterinarian, so I am looking to get my fur fix fulfilled by taking great care of your four-legged friends!

About: I have 2 dogs of my own who are spoiled rotten. I adore pets of all kinds, I even have a ferret and bearded dragon myself. I do work full time, but I know how hard it is finding a quality person to watch your babies. I have a flexible job so I can make any schedule fit! I also have a 16 year old child who loves dogs as well, so if your fur baby does well with children and you want them to have a little socialization that way I am willing to bring my child. I know how much dogs miss their humans when they are gone, so I will do my best to make them as loved and comfortable as possible I do work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate almost all schedules will my work schedule. I look forward to loving your fur babies. I would prefer to care for pets in their home. I think this makes pets more comfortable being in their own space that they know.
