Dog Walking Atlantic Highlands

About: I am a fellow pet owner looking to start a side business! My dog Lucy is now 11, she is a large mixed breed, however I am comfortable with all dog sizes. I also have two 3 year old kitties, rescued locally. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats my entire life, so animals are in my nature. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I am taking some time off working from my corporate finance job, so I am available majority of the time! My calendar is updated to my availability. I will follow any instructions provided. Any dietary needs or restrictions, medications, etc. I can play with your pets inside, outside, or both. I can walk or jog with your pet as well.

“Michael is amazing! Contacted him about walking our pups. He responded within an hour and set up a meet and greet. When walking our pups he provided many details about the walk as well as pictures. We will definitely have him walk our pups again. Great experience”

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with plenty of experience caring for family pets and neighbors' dogs, often stepping in as a trusted pet sitter when they’re away. Over the years, I’ve learned how to handle different breeds and temperaments with patience and care, always making sure each dog feels comfortable and safe in my home. I also have a well-trained dog of my own, who’s friendly and well-behaved, however, when I watch other dogs, they’ll have the house to themselves on occasion, (as he frequently spends time visiting his grandma!), giving them space to relax without the stress of interacting with a new animal. My goal is always to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels right at home. I’m currently working freelance and have the flexibility to watch your pet as needed during the week and weekend. With advanced notice, I am able to provide boarding/overnight services. My home offers a clean, open floor plan with plenty of space for your dog to relax and explore comfortably. There’s an enclosed outdoor patio for fresh air and sun, along with two large dog beds topped with clean sheets to help your pup feel right at home. I also provide natural treats as a little extra touch to keep them happy and satisfied. When your pet is staying with me, they’ll be my top priority. I’m committed to giving them my full attention, care, and affection during their visit.

About: I have extensive experience at an animal shelter, where I was tasked with walking and helping train dogs of all different sizes and behavioral patterns. I have also done overnight stays with dogs, ensuring these fur babies are being taken care of while their owners are away! I am currently working a part time library job about four days out of the week and am looking to make time for dog walking/sitting in between those days! Caring for pets in my client’s home means slowly introducing myself to their space so they know I can be welcomed and trusted in their environment! This means acclimating myself to their space and following their behaviors based on boundaries.

“Mike was very accommodating, flexible and communicative. Guster had a great week of walks with Mike and will definitely be leveraging him going forward!”

“Kelly is awesome! Kelly has been walking our 6 month old Shiba Inu several days a week on a fixed schedule while we are at work. Kelly always shows up in the agreed upon window of time and takes our dog for a nice walk. She is very nice and personable and even made friends with our 5 year old son. Our dog seems very happy and we think she loves seeing her new friend! Best of all, we trust Kelly in our home and with our beloved Luna while we are not around. Thank you Kelly!”

About: I have owned animals since the day I was born. My family even breed dogs for years. So I have trained and taken care of animals since forever. I know how to administer medications, eye drops, basic grooming, etc! Since I am a full time college student, my schedule is definitely slightly more tight. But just talk with me and I’m sure I can figure out times and everything so it all works out! In my clients home I will ensure the animal receives all the care and love it needs. I will do everything in my power to make sure the animal is comfortable.

“Kamryn helped me out last minute when I desperately needed a walk for my boy Apollo and had no way of getting home in time. Highly recommend her !”

“We just started using Samantha after moving to Shrewsbury from the city and she has been great! We are so relieved we have someone we can count on to take care of our dog while we are in NYC for work! She makes it so easy and we know our Tosh is in great hands.”

“We are so happy to have found Melanie. It is great to know my pups can get out while my hubby and I are at work. We will definitely be using Melanie again!”

“Cindy was fantastic! I needed someone to take my dog out during the day when I had to go into work last minute. Cindy was prompt and took great care of my 10 month old puppy while I was out. She even made sure to come over the day before to meet me and my dog to make sure we were comfortable. We look forward to using her services again!”

“Rick is truly the best! We were looking for a new dog sitter and feel so lucky to have found Rick. His property is truly a dog heaven with open space for the dogs to run, play, and explore. When we first met Rick he introduced his own dogs to our dog Ruby one at a time and made Ruby very comfortable. Rick treated Ruby just like his own dog. He sent multiple videos and we could see how happy she was in his care. I highly recommend Rick! We will definitely use Rick again to care for Ruby! :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. I have grown up with dogs, always been around dogs and overall just love dogs! I also love walks so the combination is perfect in my mind! I now have my own puppy as well who gets along with any and all dogs! I am looking to do walks for dogs! I have a full time job plus work some weekends, so when I can I would love to take a pup on a walk! I am super respectful of others homes. I have dog sat many times, even over night for 2 weeks. I am very careful with everything I do.

“Jennifer was great as always! She’s so caring for our older pup who often needs assistance getting up and down the stairs. She always makes sure they have fresh water after a walk and her communication is timely and detailed.”

About: I worked at an animal shelter for a year and a half where I took care of the cats and dogs there, I also worked at a dog groomer that had a daycare. I worked with many dogs of different ages and personalities. I also took care of a family members dog who was blind and needed daily eye drops. I'm able to check in on your pets or walk your dogs any day of the week after 12pm. I can be scheduled as a last minute person for your pets. I will give as many pictures and updates as you want about your pet, so you can see how they're doing. I'll follow all their routines and schedules you give me.

About: Hi there, I’m Jackie! . I have various experience with dogs as my family and I have always had dogs growing up. I also have fostered service dogs with a service dog organization in college as I took on the responsibility of living/taking care of three dogs (not all at once, I fostered three) in my college apartment, keeping up with their training, exposure, and more. I’m proud to say they are all full time service dogs to their recipients! I will do my absolute best to make you and your dog feel comfortable and happy with my work ethic. Knowledge of your pup is crucial to every stay as I would like to know social levels, fears, likes, dislikes, favorite past times, or they’re a couch potato or active to make their stay great! I’d like to know a dog’s boundaries so a meet and greet would be great so I can interact with them with their parents. I also love cats. They never fail to make me laugh with their personality and find them intriguing as no cat is the same. It is crucial to have a successful meet and greet whether they’re social or a ghost so the cat won’t stress. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I like to incorporate dogs into my routine as I like to be active from going to walks or just having fun depending on the weather. I love a good movie buddy or someone to walk around town with. As updates, I love to send photos of your dogs to your number. I enjoy seeing photos of my dogs when I’m away so I know it’s a relieving feeling seeing your pup happy. I will always do my best to ensure your dog is happy and healthy in my home or yours. I understand the nervousness owners may feel leaving their pets with someone else. I am hoping you are available via text if I need a question answered
