Dog Walkers in Avondale, PA

“My rescue dog can sometimes be hesitant to trust men but Mark knew just what to do to put her at ease. Mark was punctual and very pleasant and helpful. I will not hesitate to ask Mark to walk Leia again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats as long as I can remember. I’m a life-long equestrian with 5 horses at my farm now. I also have a flock of ducks. I’ve had cockatiels, aquarium fish, and a corn snake in the past. I care about each and every pet I meet as if it were my own. I'm a homeschooling mom of 5 self-sufficient kids. We care for 19 animals on my property (ducks, horses, cats, & Bob the dog) and I still have the desire, time & energy to care for more. I am organized, efficient, diligent, and not phased by chaos. During the day I would need to leave for a 4-8 hour period, depending on what you're comfortable with, to spend time with my own people and animals. For example, that might look like being out of the house from 6am-10am & 4pm-8pm. I am an easy houseguest: I sleep on the couch, bring my own towels (no extra laundry for you) & thoroughly clean before I leave. It’s as if a petsitting fairy came to visit. (It’s my general policy to clean what I use at a client’s home. If you want a whole-house clean from top-to-bottom, need help de-cluttering, or are behind on laundry & want me to do a dozen loads before you get back - that can be arranged for an additional fee).

“Margaret has been coming to our house to walk our dog 3 times a week. She is always punctual and very kind and nice to our pup. We would highly recommend her.”

“John spent over an hour getting to know my intimidating big 100+ lb cane corso! I feel like both my dog and myself made a new friend. John is confident, patient, caring and a true lover of animals! He goes above and beyond to care for my dog! And can now sit on my couch with Sicario with no problems, It is truly a blessing to find someone like John!! We thank you tremendously!! And he loves his walks with you!! See ya next week!!”

“Danica promptly replies to all communications and has been super flexible with scheduling. Her calm demeanor has been great for my sometimes nervous dog. She has been a true asset walking Eligh while I recover from a broken ankle. Highly recommended!”

About: With a lifelong passion for dogs and three years of hands-on training in animal science at TCHS, I provide expert care in walking, feeding, grooming, and administering medications. Currently, I apply these skills daily at a local kennel, ensuring every pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I currently work part-time at Vixen Hall Kennels. My schedule changes weekly, but I’m flexible with hours and can easily accommodate different times. I’m also willing to get up early or stay up late if needed to ensure your pets receive the best care at any time of day. I treat every pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pets' routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or medication. I’m committed to providing personalized care and always prioritize the well-being of each animal, ensuring a stress-free experience while you're away.

About: Rescued my Staffordshire Terrier / Mastiff mix when she was almost four and worked with a trainer to have her become my service dog. I had an amazing seven years with her until a brain tumor forced us to say goodbye. I spent 2021-2022 volunteering weekly at a rescue handling puppies, walking them and helping socialize them. In 2022 I adopted a five month old Rottweiler/pitbull mix puppy from Kansas. He is high energy and tecently completed his Begining manners obedience class. I'm enjoying training him, and when the end of the day comes he is a joy to cuddle up on the couch with and watch some tv. When conducting g drop ins I pay attention to details like how much ffod/water ate in the bowl, consistency and color of bowel movements and any other factors that I think may effect the overall health and well-being of your furry family member. Of course there is always time allowed for pets, snuggles, and wet puppy kisses. As a boarder I only take one dog at a time. Our guest "furry friend"- your dog, will have they own guest crate in my room, which is an efficiency suite in my parents basement. Your dog will have my dog to play with, get plenty of cuddle time on the couch when I watch TV, and the guest crate is only 10 feet from my bed, so we are all together. We live on 2 unfenced acres, so there is a lot of fun yard to run around in and play with my dog in during the day. I am currently not working a traditional job. As a result my time is flexible and other than my commitment to a number a regulars I do drop ins for, my schedule is pretty flexible. I prefer caring for pets in their own home as this is where they are most comfortable. I'm the new unknown factor. As much as I can keep to their typical routine and environment the more at ease I feel your pet will be.

“I was very happy with Megan. My buddy Dante the dog was very happy with Megan. She was always on time and very communicative. She helped Dante learn to walk on a leash. She would still be walking Dante if my situation had not changed.”

“Max is amazing. Our little guy is pretty shy. She was able to get him warmed up to her on the first visit. Thanks Max! Thomas can’t wait to see you again.”

About: I have been a consistent volunteer with multiple shelters and a pet sitter over the past 4 years taking care of animals of different backgrounds. I'm currently preparing to leave for college and have a lot of time to spend with your dogs throughout the summer (weekends and weekdays available)! I can provide leashes (slip lead and clip), doggy bags, and a travel water bowl (all if needed) in order to provide your dog with the best and safest experience possible.

About: I’ve been around both dogs and cats my whole life, and I’ve found a boundless love and care for animals. I have experience in caring for a senior (19 yr old) cat and everything that includes — bathroom troubles, arthritis, medication, etc. I am working part-time, so I will have plenty of time (20+ hours) per week, day and night, to care for pets in whatever way necessary. Caring for pets in a client’s home is wholly about making the pet feel cared for in the comfort of their own environment — giving them exercise, ensuring they are fed and have pooped and peed, checking up on any issues, and keeping them company (or leaving them alone in some cases).

“June is great. Super reliable, good with special instructions, and Laika loved seeing her everyday.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—over 30 years of loving and living with dogs, and 24 years with both a cat and a dog by my side. Pets have always been part of my family, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them like you would. I’m patient, compassionate, and experienced with all kinds of personalities—from energetic pups to older pets who need a gentler touch. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to give them the love and attention they deserve. As a full-time special education teacher, I’m available on weekdays starting around 5 PM and fully open on weekends from 8:30 AM to 7 PM. My weekdays can vary slightly depending on school responsibilities, but I’ll always communicate clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Weekends are the best time for walks, drop-ins, or quality time with your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where your pet can feel secure and cared for. With years of experience and a naturally attentive personality, I’m always tuned in to your pet’s needs and behavior. You can trust that I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain a safe routine, and treat your pet like one of my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of love.

About: I have a huuuuge soft spot for animals. I used to work for a streaming platform for dog lovers, so I have worked with dogs in tons of different environments! I helped produce a variety of videos for the platform including dog training videos, veterinarian tips, and even fun dog news, so I have learned a lot about pet care in the process! Additionally, I spent a few years in college watching dogs for my neighbors and family friends. I have experience feeding, walking, and teaching simple tricks! I have a cat at home named Miss Bean and my dog of 17 years recently passed away - so I am dog deprived! I have a very flexible schedule. I am available most times of the weekday, weekends, and evenings! I am happy to talk through your schedule as well to see what works best. I am dedicated to taking care of each pets individual needs. I treat them all with love and care and will adapt to what makes your pet feel the most at home so we can build a trusting relationship.

About: Animals are always taken good care of I love animals and have a lot of experience to care for an animal when I pet sit. I have free time we mostly do pet sitting I have the time and care when your animal is with me while your away . I have a space to walk the dogs and we have a park I can run around with them or just to sit in the sun.
