Dog Walking Bandera

About: I have experience with puppies and old dogs, big dogs and small dogs. Lots of experience with diabetes and critical care pets. I've been a dog owner and lover for over 15 years. I work from home. I’m home almost all of the time so my availability is pretty open. I have a large fenced yard and I live on some property. I also have miles of country roads I can take your pets for a walk! I can also come to you to check in on your dog or take them for a walk. I want to do what it best for you and your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom for my 4 kiddos so my schedule is very flexible! Weekday or weekend I always have availability for furry friends! Travel: My standard rates include locations within approximately 15 minutes of my home base in Bandera. Because I serve a large rural area, a small per-visit travel fee may apply for extended-distance bookings (generally $5 for locations approximately 15–25 minutes away and $10+ for locations 25+ minutes away). Any travel adjustment will always be discussed and agreed upon before booking. I treat my pets like a beloved family member and I will treat yours the same way! They rely on us so I would never let them down!

About: I have had pets since I was born, and they were always members of the family. As an adult, I've owned and trained multiple pets, and I love them all: dogs, cats, unconventional pets, etc. As a stay-at-home mom, I have fairly open morning, afternoon, and evening availability. I am flexible and willing to work with your schedule. I will walk your pet, play with your pet, and give as many cuddles and belly rubs as required! I have experience walking dogs both with a collar or a harness, so can manage whatever you have.

Dogs- special needs (PTSD, anxiety, depression, physical disabilities, seniors), Puppies (from birth to 7 months), High Energy, Couch Potatoes, dogs on diet & exercise plans or weight gain plans, training, Behavioral Corrections (always done with respect, I prefer to use a psst noise which catches most attention. I do not believe in physical correction.) Leash Training (I can recommend training tools, how to get their attention, & training techniques to practice.) Cats- Pregnant moms on birth watch, Labor ( I have helped countless cats give birth, know how to spot complications, check kittens for health concerns, make sure mom & babies are fed well & getting what they need. I weigh kittens & track weight, consumption, & any physical differences.) Pigs- feed management, cleaning pins or potty spots, indoor & outdoor, feet trimming, spoiling (my pig loved to get belly rubs, be sang to, have feet rubs, getting brushed, if your pig enjoys, please let me know as I will spoil them) Goats- Experience Catching Escapees ( if you’ve got that one that just always gets out, I’ve got it.

I have a strong passion & love for all animals, even those who might be “difficult”. Don’t be scared to say your animal has behavioral issues as it can be managed & I have experience with extreme sensitivity & destruction. I can arrange meetings & sitting around work easily. I’m up early & up late! You can text or call with questions anytime. Don’t hesitate to request days that might seem “inconvenient”, your pets care will never be an inconvenience to me! I require all owners for medication information (if taken), behavioral issue info, injuries that require help. I clean to high sanitation standards, make sure your pet is clean, & will make sure to notify if feed is low. I always clean the home & wash everything after doing house sitting. Nothing is better than coming home to a clean home!

“Tim is timely and each dog gets a walk around the block. Our shy dog is improving with routine that Tim gives us each week. Our little dog who is mostly blind loves the walk. This is his chance to get out and smell the neighborhood ❤️”

About: I’m a devoted dog owner to two pups and although I am new to Rover I do have experience with dog sitting/ walking for pets outside of my own home!

I’m comfortable with walks, potty breaks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets extra patience and attention based on their needs. I also have experience providing oral and rectal medications when needed. I deeply care for all dogs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during my visits.

In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication needs, crate instructions, and any house rules. I also like to send updates and pictures so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for.

About: I've been a dog lover my whole life, owning and caring for pups of all sizes since I was 8. Every experience with them has made me a better person, and now I get to combine that passion with my daily routine! Dog walking not only keeps me active but also helps keep me happy ^w^ I can’t wait to meet your pup and go for a fun run—or a leisurely walk if that’s more their style! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I typically work evenings, any time I'm not at work though I'm usually spending time with my own dog at home, or trying to make extra to save up for a car and groceries 😁 However you as the client tell me to treat your pet, I will gladly treat your pet, nothing is too embarrassing or too much, as long as they're with me, they get my sole attention 😊

About: I have raised a handful of puppies, making them great companions. Each of our dogs lived to be around 14-15 years old and enjoyed every second with me and my family. Whether I had to monitor them post surgeries, or senior care, I always made sure they got the care, medicine and love they required. I work early morning shifts M-F. I typically I may wake up around 1-4am, and work from home for the first few hours of my shift. I finish out the rest of my 8 hour shift at the office, return home for a quick meal, go to the gym, and spend the rest of the night at home! I would love an excuse to go out for frequent walks with a dog while I am home. I do not mind if my car gets dirty from taking them out to a park for a longer walk rather than their usual potty breaks you may give! For cats or dogs, they will have plenty of room to relax and rest wherever they please. I keep a neat and tidy apartment, so there won’t be much they can get into to mess with!

“We’re so grateful for Abigail’s excellent service, she took us on a short notice and took care of our babies as asked. She was great at keeping us informed while we were out”
