Dog Walking Aviation

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I regularly help take care of my neighbor’s dog, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. I also volunteer with animal shelters whenever I can because I truly enjoy being around animals. I’m very patient, energetic, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, and I love spending time outdoors on walks and keeping pets active and happy. As a student who also works, I often have gaps in my schedule during the early mornings and midday. I usually spend that time going on long walks or being active, so I thought, why not have a furry friend join me? I enjoy giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need, and I’m happy to fit their routines into my day whenever possible. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine by following your instructions carefully and paying close attention to their needs. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or simply keeping each other company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away!

“I had a regular walker cancel for a life interruption last minute on my midterm test day and Lukis was wonderful. It was as if they were Kronk’s caretaker for months. He was happy and I had no worries about him while I was testing. I would definitely go to them again for any caretaking needs in the future.”

“Mary is great with my pitty!! She always did what I needed done and found the time to squeeze him in even in busy days! She does have a bad ankle so due to that we had to switch over so if u have a bigger stronger dog who pulls or is reactive, may be best to find someone else. But otherwise she did the job and walked him even with that ankle :)! She helped us find other options as well and always had tips to help when issues were brought up. She seems to really care about the animals and what they need.”

About: I grew up with large breeds and have had dogs my entire life. I lived with all different kinds of foster dogs and now have one 5 year old dog at home. My husband and I are teachers who are home full time in the summer, so we can provide a lot of attention and love to any dog that comes to stay with us! I am a teacher who is home for the summer. I get up early to take a morning walk and avoid the summer heat and take another evening walk. I love taking my dog to the beach to swim throughout the week, as well. I live in a home with a yard (unfenced) and a 5 year old poodle mix to keep your pup company. Lots of walks and time spent snuggling will help keep your dog happy when they stay with me.

“Valerie has been a fantastic dog walker for my pug, Steve. Communication has been super easy, she always leaves great notes (feedback and pictures) and brings lots of positive energy. Steve has been a very happy boy to have another friend to play with. Very highly recommended!”

“They were kind enough to do a last minute booking for my girl. Unfortunately freya was a little too strong pulling so they couldn't walk her. They did however, let her out in the yard to go potty anyways. I really appreciated it”

About: Grew up with pets but can’t have my own right now. I’m looking to help others and get to have be around pets part time! I am self employed with flexible hours every day of the week. I go on daily walks so having a dog by my side would make them even better! I’m kind and gentle and pets gravitate towards me. I’m great at problem solving and always love to send photo updates of your fur babies.

About: I have over ten years of experience in the care of pets, both domesticated and companion animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits and others, and have protected their well-being and rights according to all local laws and regulations. I have made sure that everything in terms of their care - pet relief, shelter, proper food, adequate exercise, regular checkups -is performed according to the owners' needs and requirements and especially the well-being of the animals. I have over 10 years of experience in the care of animals and always with the pets’ and their owners’ best interest in focus. I have had pets since I was young. I currently have three cats and a dog. I believe that pets raise people’s awareness and brings them closer, which is why I have the ability to care for pets. Including those of my friends and close family. At my home, I have a fenced backyard, which is usually where my dog likes to play or rest. That way I can do housework and different activities without worrying about him being in danger. My pets all get along without any problem and are part of my family.

About: I’ve had multiple years of experience with senior dogs, pets needing help with medication, or energetic pets requiring lots of play. I have two cats myself. I’m a musician with a flexible schedule so I can make time whenever they need me. Happy to do over nights or pop in visits. Ive found it best to try to keep animals routines and schedules as regular as possible from what they’re used to to minimize their stress.

About: I've had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats as well as smaller pets like hamsters and fish, so caring for animals has always felt second nature to me. I currently live with three cats and am very comfortable with feline routines, personalities and special needs. I also have experience with small and large dogs; from growing up with a Chihuahua to caring for an American Bulldog, so I understand how different sizes and temperaments require different approaches. I am attentive, patient, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you're away. I currently work Tuesday-Saturday in the afternoons (typically from 3:30pm-8pm with the occasional later nights). I am available in the mornings for check-ins, quality time, play time, feedings, and walks and I'm happy to help pets start their day calmly and on a schedule. I communicate clearly if my evening availability changes and always prioritize routines and consistency for the pets in my care. Safety, trust and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in your home so pets can stay in a familiar environment, keeping their routines consistent and minimizing stress. I follow all feeding, walking and care instructions closely, maintain a clean and calm space, and pay attention to details to ensure your pets safety and well-being. My goal is to make both you and you pet confident and relaxed while you're away.

“Valerie is the best! My puppy loved her. She’s very experienced, caring and responsible. Lucy is training to be a therapy dog and Valerie did an excellent job using the specific commands Lucy is being taught. Also, Lucy is a challenge at five months and 50 pounds. Valerie had no problem, controlling her in a loving way.”

About: Hi there! My name is Grace. I was a dog owner for a long time, and now I'm hoping to meet some new dogs and help you out in the process. I love to jog, and would be happy to take your dog for a run. I love to play fetch or whatever your dog's favorite game is. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm trained as a paramedic, so I'm responsible and cool-headed during emergencies. I love all dogs, but rescues and those scrappy-looking mutts hold a special place in my heart. I have experience with larger breeds as well. There's no dog too big or small for me! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I can devote as much time to your animals as you need! I am available on short notice. I love to stay active, so I love going for walks or playing with animals. I live right across from a park with tons of space to run and play.

About: I absolutely love pets. I have one and I only treat others like I want mine to be treated. I love to see them happy! I open to do overnights and weekends. I try to be flexible when it comes to scheduling and I'll accommodate to the best of my abilities. I have a very cozy home. I have a yard where they can go and exercise. Pets have freedom around the house so they can make themselves right at home!

About: I possess extensive training that equips me to handle various situations, including managing aggressive behavior in animals. My experience ensures that I can navigate challenges effectively and provide a safe environment for both pets and their owners. Additionally, my knowledge extends to administering medication, allowing me to cater to pets with specific health needs. I love taking funny pictures of them too lol I’m currently the owner of the sweetest kitten, so it is already a part of my daily routine to care for and love my furry friend. I am very gentle, loving, patient, cautious and kind. I can carefully but easily follow specific instructions for special medical procedures if that’s ever needed.

About: Hello! I’m Maranda and I love animals, like most people. I am open to all animals! Any pet in my home will be treated as my own, following guidelines set by you of course. I have most of my experience fromworking in Dog Day Care centers, as well as ten years on and off overnight dog and cat sitting for friends and family, so I am well versed in dog behaviors and body language. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby or babies! My three year old and I are always home except for quick runs to breakfast or the store. I’m rarely gone from the house for more than 2 hours. I ask that drop off/pick up times be between the times of 7am- 9pm. I am also available for transportation! I have dog seatbelt leashes as well and I can pick up starting at 9am and will end at 9pm, outside of emergencies. Thank you for understanding ☺️ A somewhat fenced yard, a chain link fence that is weak at the poles (working on updating) but! dogs would be leashed at all times regardless. I have a large three year old who is the only child in the house that is never left unattended around animals. The comfort of the dogs are most important. If your fur baby has any resource guarding, fear aggression, or herding behavior I ask that we do a meet and greet to make sure everyone is comfortable. My house is baby proofed, although maybe in a state of organized chaos thanks to said toddler, so animals will be safe as well. I have three cats, but when dogs are in the house they hang out in my basement, as that is their home base. The pups in my care have access to the entire first floor of my house, and can come upstairs with me with supervision if I do not have any cat guests lounging upstairs (: I have two crates, one is 36 inches and the other is 42 and they are equipped with beds and an optional crate cover if that is what the pup is used to. If drop off or pick up is needed of me, I have seat belt leashes for car safety. During drop in visits, each family and pet have their own groove so please forgive me if i ask so many questions! I want to maintain familiar routines and behaviors with your fur babies so they can be as comfortable as possible. For drop in visits, please tell explain where the food is kept and where the food bowls/litter boxes are. Some dogs have triggers that put them in an arousal/overstimulated state, (Hats, hoods, boots? big jackets, certain pitches, how a stranger enters the house etc) please tell me if your dog has any of these! I have worked with many rescue/shelter dogs, I can accommodate for your babies. Please give a heads up for any exciting things your dog likes on walks! How do they walk, do they chase? Etc.
