Dog Walking Avila

“Thank you so much!”

Elise C.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was in elementary school. Cats, dogs, spiders, lizards, birds, the works. I love interacting with animals and learning about them. I have experience with both young and older pets. I take pride in the scheduling skills for walks, feeding, and any other tasked for you lovely critters. I am able to be there for morning, afternoons, and evenings. If it is a pet that needs house sitting I am able to do that as well. I am a college student and have classes in the midday and afternoon on Monday and Wednesdays. I have church Sundays morning as well, but otherwise almost always available. I have a lot of pets in my home. I have a large Dalmatian, both an old and a young cat, rabbits, and turtles. I can am able to crate animals as needed as well clean up after them with practice from my own home. I am able to clip cat's nails and any grooming needs. I know some pets need more exercise so I can go on long walks as needed.

“Nicole is wonderful! Very attentive to my pup when they go on walks. Plus detailed notes and pictures and consistent communication before and after booked walks.”

About: I have over 3 years of professional pet care experience through my roles at PetSmart, where I cared for pets, monitored their health and behavior, maintained a safe and clean environment for all of the animals we cared for in store as well as the ones pet parent's would bring in. I am certified in Dog and Cat CPR and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have worked with energetic puppies, senior dogs, playful kittens, and shy or nervous pets who need extra patience and attention. During my time at PetSmart, I regularly cared for kittens in the adoption center and learned how important it is to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have also raised puppies of my own and helped care for pets belonging to family and friends. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention while you're away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, so I provide reliable care, plenty of updates, and open communication every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! ***I offer discounts, Ask me!*** Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent care, whether that’s feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, medication reminders, or simply keeping your pet company. I understand that every pet has different needs and will do my best to follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With over 3 years of experience working at PetSmart, I’m familiar with a variety of pet personalities and behaviors. I carefully follow all care instructions, provide regular updates, and take the time to build trust with each pet. Whether caring for your pet in your home or during drop-in visits, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own cat, Luna.

“Ally was very responsive and reliable. Our dog loved her and i would get her again.”

“Kennedy was very communicative with this being Harlem's first walk and with Rover. The communication was timely, professional and helped me to be comfortable with the process. Will definitely use Kennedy again. Thank you Kennedy!”

About: If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog like family, you're in the right place. Dogs have been a part of my life for 20+ years, and caring for them is something I truly love. I've raised and cared for three of my own rescued dogs, Mumbles, Rose, and Benny. I have experience boarding dogs in my home, providing drop-in visits, potty breaks and dog walking for neighbors, and house-sitting for a special needs dog. I've also volunteered with multiple dog rescue groups and was a foster "fail" momma to the sweetest, most sensitive Staffy you could ever meet. Dogs are family and bring me so much joy. When your dog stays with me, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I work from home and have flexible weekends, so your fur baby won't be left alone for long stretches. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Every dog is different, so their routine can be tailored to their individual needs and what they’re used to at home. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and well-being always come first. Your pet will be cared for in a quiet, calm home with minimal traffic, creating a peaceful environment where they can feel at ease. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets and homes, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your fur baby in someone else’s care. I will respect your dog’s routine, be attentive to their individual needs, and provide plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Mae is very reliable, punctual and takes great care of our dog Cannon on their daily walks. She is a great communicator and genuinely loves caring for our dog. I would highly recommend Mae for your dog walking/sitting needs.”

“Jessica has been wonderful! I needed help on short notice for my energetic Staffy/Lab mix while I worked overnight shifts, and she exceeded my expectations. She was great with my dog from the very first meet and greet, and clearly has experience handling larger, high-energy dogs. She provided a full 30 minute walk, updates with photos, notes about the visit, and even tracked potty breaks and checked her water. Knowing my dog was getting exercise and attention in the middle of my 12 hour shift made a huge difference and greatly reduced my stress. Jessica has been reliable, professional, communicative, and caring. My dog absolutely loves her, and I feel completely comfortable having her care for my pet. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog walker!”

About: My next door neighbor had me take care of their dog, Brownie. He was an old man, but still a good boy! I would make drop-in visits to make sure he was fed and given his medicine which he did such a good job with taking it around me, and I would also take him outside for bathroom breaks. Milo was another dog I took care of recently, and unlike Brownie, she was young, and also loud just like any other husky, but similar to Brownie, she was good girl. This time she had to live with me at my house, but she was no problem at all. I would take her outside at least two hours a day and give her walks around my neighborhood. I would also let her sleep on my bed and she'd wake me up by licking my face every morning to start the day. Feeding her wasn't a problem either. In fact, taking so much time out of my day to take care of just any other dog is never a problem for me! My recent pet care was for a Siberian Husky named Milo. After taking care of her cats, my sister asked me to take care of Milo for a friend who was away last December. Milo was a big dog, but she wasn't anything I had trouble handling. She was a fun and good girl, and I made sure she was taken outside every two hours of every day and also made sure she was given food and water and would refill both when I see that they're almost empty. Pet care comes first for me and I would take plenty of time out of my day to give pets the love and attention they need while family is away. I have a yard but it isn't fenced. However, I will be outside with your dog if they ever need to go, and keep an eye and/or leash on them if necessary. I did the same for my own dog, Macy. Unfortunately, my home doesn't have any other dogs that yours could socialize with since Macy passed away, but with me around, your baby should never feel alone! If I were to take care of your pet at your home (and if necessary), I could also tidy up the inside of your house to the point where I was never even there once you have come back from your trip.

About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 15 years, and am an avid dog lover. I am thrilled to sign up as a pet sitter and walker and enjoy time with new friendly faces! I am currently working as a part time pet sitter/walker while moving forward in my acceptance offer to BU to pursue an online masters program. I will be available Monday-Sunday any time to care for your pets! Safety is so important! I currently carry extra dog leashes, a harness if needed, dog treats, pet corrector spray, a safety back seat dog cover in my car. I know a few local dog parks that are fenced in, quiet and safe to play too. I know CPR and am happy to continue any training or routines your family conducts.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I had a golden growing up for 15 years and now have a dog of my own! I love going on long walks with dogs who need it, playing fetch, and giving lots of scritches and love! No dog is too small or too big for me. Happy to accommodate anything your pet needs! I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I work in VA and living MD so I’m really all over the map. I would prefer any time after 3 but can also come in the mornings with enough heads up. I do not have a fenced in back yard but do have a nice trail to walk on and get some energy out. I also have a lead in the backyard to keep the dogs safe and not escape if they would like to roam freely. My coonhound has been just fine with the set up! I also have a crate if preferred. My dog is friendly with others and loves other dogs!

“Jessica and Damon were wonderful with our two dogs! They stepped in on short notice, which we truly appreciated, and took great care of them. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”

“Jodie was a huge help for us when we went on vacation. I even had the dates wrong and she still showed up and took care of our pup. We are very appreciative to have had her.”

About: Hi! I'm a college student home for the summer with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for dogs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment where your pet can feel at home while you're away! I have dog sat for family, friends, and even neighbors for a little over 4 years now! I’ve always wanted a pet myself but never had a chance to so I disperse my love and affection for all pets! I understand that every pet has different needs between playtime, walks, needing a specific schedule. I will make sure that whatever the need may be, I will follow it as closely as possible so that they can feel as comfortable as possible. I believe that communication is very important so I will always provide updates, pictures, and etc so that you can have peace of mind at all times! My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I currently work with the government on a schedule where I choose the days and times that I work! Shifts are not available everyday so in the free time that I have, I love to pet sit! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, supervised environment and make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. There are no other pets in my home and no children present! Pets can be crated if needed and they are not often left alone (if cannot be left alone at all then your pet will not be left alone!).

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs when they go out of town. I’m the first person they call because they trust me and their pets love me! I love dogs and think they are great companions. I have A dog of my own and she works very well with other pets! I generally take 1-2 walk during the day just to remain active. My flexible work from home schedule makes it easier to adjust to your dogs schedule. Please let me know if you have any additional questions for me! I will follow whatever instructions are given to me by the owner in regards to how they will like their dog to be cared for. I am sensitive to dogs maintaining their established schedules. I generally take my dog on a walk around my neighborhood. Will also occasionally take her to the dog park if it is empty

About: Hi! I’m Jessie and I’m a lifelong animal lover I have even been called a cat whisperer. Personally, I have been an owner of German Shepherds since I have been alive and I have had cats since I’ve been four years old. Friends and family have been trusting me with their house keys since I’ve been able to drive even when I’m not pet sitting for them. I treat every pet like my own with kindness, patience, and all of the love. I have experience with a wide range of temperament from anxious animals to high energy animals. I will make sure I take the time to make sure your pet is comfortable with me and make sure I prioritize their routine. ✅Patient with all animals ✅Experience with medication administration ✅Flexible availability for daily drop in visits ✅Will provide photos and updates with every visit I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, snuggles, and potty breaks throughout the day. I’m available most weekends, mornings, and evenings for drop in visits. While I am there, I will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I offer drop-in visits only and I take the responsibility of entering your home seriously. I will treat your space with the same respect I would want for my own- keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment and giving you peace of mind that both your pet and your home are in good hands

“Alexis did an amazing job with our big girl. She is prompt and provides good communication while engaging with our pet. We will definitely book with her again when we return. Thank you Alexis!”

“Alicia was incredibly accommodating to our last minute dog walking request! Can’t wait to use her services again for our Kiko!”

About: I have always been a big animal lover. I got my first dog when I turned 2 years old and did everything I could to help take care of her. I got another dog a couple of years later who became my best friend. Before I left for college he would come everywhere with me. I am now the happy and proud owner of a 6 and 12 year old cat and want to continue growing my pet family. In addition to growing up taking care of my own pets I had the responsibility of pet sitting for a lot of different families in my neighborhood. I have worked as a client service representative and now as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital and have been able to gain knowledge and experience about pet healthcare and wellbeing beyond the general scope. I will always do my absolute best to make sure your animals are happy and healthy. I love pets of every kind and would be happy to help you take care of yours if the need ever arises! I am currently a full time employee at an animal hospital. I would be available to do drop ins before and after work and am happy to do overnight visits as long as the owner is aware I will have to leave for around 8 hours to work. Establishing trust with a pet is the most important thing you can do to ensure they are happy and healthy. I will be sure to provide individualized care for your pet depending on their needs and temperament to ensure they are as mentally and physically comfortable as possible.
