Dog Walking Bangor

About: I have two boys of my own, and I’ve had both of them since they were puppies. My youngest is 7 and my oldest is 13, so I have over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs through different stages of their lives. I potty trained both of them and learned how important patience, consistency, and understanding are when raising a dog. What makes my experience unique is that I’ve learned to understand dogs beyond just their basic needs. Every dog has a different personality and their own way of communicating, and I take the time to understand what makes each one comfortable, happy, and feel cared for. I know dogs are an important part of your family, just like mine are to me. So allow me to be of service and help you and your family whenever you need it. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, attention, and care that I give my own. My part-time job gives me a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m available for mornings, afternoons, and even evenings. I can work around your schedule and do my best to be there whenever you and your pup need me! In my household, pets are forever the babies of the family, no matter how old they are, how slowly they walk, or how big they may be. I care for every pet in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, whether they’re in my home or yours. I follow your pet’s usual routine, provide plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean space. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or care needs so your pet feels relaxed and well cared for while you’re away.

“Dennis is dependable, reliable, and so good to our pup! Our dog loves his walks, and he puts us at ease caring for him as we would. I would recommend Dennis to anyone!”

About: With a wealth of experience from owning dogs and cats my whole life and walking/pet-sitting for the past 15 years for dogs of all sizes and demeanors, at the end of the day I just love hanging out with animals! The goal is always to provide loving and informed pet care while making it a fun time for everyone involved :) I’m all for providing care that fits your pet’s specific needs and personality! Specific experience with training puppies and caring for senior dogs in my own home. I work part time remotely with a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of requests! Most days I’m flexible and open with any timing. For services in your home: I'm very respectful and aware of the space and your pet’s needs - never forgetting to shower your pet with love and attention! For services in my home: Your pet will be part of the family and closely looked after while they’re with me. They’ll have comfortable places to rest and hangout inside as well as a fenced yard to use and play in. I have one very sweet dog for them to hang out with too!

About: I've been around animals all my life! From as small as a mouse to as big as a horse, I love spending my time with animals. I have experience with training dogs (not certified), and love going down animal behavioral rabbit holes (pun intended). My goal is to make sure your babies are taken care and safe while you are away! I am disabled and mostly work several gigs jobs so my time is very flexible! I am willing to work with clients on their needs. I want to respect your and your pet's space and will be very mindful of where they feel comfortable. If you have crate instructions, I am comfortable doing that as well.

About: I grew up with showing and breeding Golden Retrievers, giving me hands-on experience since age 12. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life- walking, bathing, and grooming. I promise to provide attentive care to each pet’s comfort and routine. I currently work full-time as a supervisor at Starbucks. I either work 3:30-11:30am or 6:00-2:00pm. I have two days of a week, usually one weekend day :) Pets in my own home have their own barn with inside/outside access during the day, but are crated at night. We have five acres and love having playtime outside. I am able to meet most needs for pets.

THANK YOU!* I have trained several puppies, mine and my friends! I have had 4 personal doggies and have cared for numerous dogs who have belonged to family and friends! I love dogs and I love to be active so it’s a perfect match! I am involved in Real Estate, which I can do remotely most of the time.

I am highly vigilant and responsible, I take pride in keeping your home and pets safe and sound! I keep your pets on their natural feeding, playing, potty, and sleeping schedules while you are away! I am always easy to communicate with and care greatly about keeping pet owners in the know!

About: While working as a pet groomer we had several pets be left overnight for boarding to which I had to tend to all animals who were left. So I’m already very accustomed to the whole pet boarding regiment and a professional level. I work an overnight schedule to which I’m able to set my own hours or leave at a moments notice should anything occur. I live in Bremerton and work in Bainbridge so I travel through all those cities. I have a big fenced in front and back yard on a lake property in a peaceful cul-de-sac. I’m happy to crate train a pet if need be. I’m also happy to groom your pet if need be.

About: I have been with Rover for four years, I’m learning a lot and having so much fun doing so. I enjoy using Rover to interact with dogs of all breeds and ages. I do have lots more previous experience before Rover but so far this has been the best experience with meeting new people and their dogs. I just recently earned a certificate in dog training with Animal behavioral college. It was a 18 month extensive program and I learned a lot with studying and hands on training. Message me for any questions you have about dog training. With all of my volunteer experience in shelters, and with my own pets, I am comfortable with giving medicine or following any special instructions. I have a fenced back yard with lots of space to run and play. We frequent all the local trails, no matter the weather, so if you need a tired dog, I am your go to Walker or doggie daycare provider! Message me for all your overnight/ extended stay questions. I also care for other animals, so please feel free to message me for cats, birds, exotics, reptiles, etc. I do this full time so my schedule is all about pet care! I set time for long dog walks, playtime, and I work with your feeding schedule. Pets always have water available to them, I keep my backyard tidy and poop free, dog friendly toys only, healthy treats, I stay on feeding schedules, safe walks, and I never leave your pet unattended with children or other animals.

“Valerie was great with Brody! She was communicative, reliable, and took great care of him during his walks. We really appreciated all of her updates.”

About: As a lifetime pet-parent I will treat your pets as if they were my own - you can expect the best care and attention to all your specific needs and routines. I currently have three cats and am the god-parent to three dogs. My best friend for 14 years was a Dalmatian, and before a career in finance, I worked in ASPCA and vet hospitals and I studied pre-vet medicine in college. I've handled dogs professionally and worked with puppies and senior dogs, as well as violent and untrained dogs. I work part time from home and am able to set my own schedule, so I am available to care for pets daily and on weekends. Our home has a fenced back yard and dogs are only allowed out of the fenced area on leash. Our home is pet safe, with garbage and chemicals all stored safely away. Food is kept protected. Our yard is sprayed with natural tick and flea deterrent, and we so not use any pesticides or harsh chemicals in our yard. I am respectful, clean and very detail-oriented, so will always strive to meet any expectations for your home that you set.

“Mack loved Abby! And bless her for coming to give me a puppy break on such a rainy, cold day. She took Mack for an extended walk and he came back good and tired. Exactly what was needed today!”

About: I am good with a number of pets, I've worked with both conventional furry pets and even feathered and scaly ones, although the scales I definitely have less experience with. I've looked after people's pets plenty of times in the past, both dogs and cats. I much prefer medium or small dogs since I am a small person, but if the large dog is a gentle giant I will certainly consider it. I can work around your schedule quite well, I am very flexible! Weekdays are easy, weekends might need some negotiating but I am open to it. I own a very nervous and anxious cat, so I cannot take overnights sadly. I care for pets as if they are little people. Pets are wonderful companions for life and deserve to be cherished while we have them.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I can help with feeding, walks, bathing, exercise, and daily care while making sure each pet’s individual needs and routines are followed. I’ve cared for both energetic and shy pets, as well as dogs with disabilities. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, awareness, and building trust with pets who may need extra support. I always focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel happy and cared for. I treat every animal like my own and take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. Communication is also very important. I’ll send regular updates and photos throughout your pet’s care so you can feel confident knowing they’re safe, happy, and in good hands! I’m currently building my pet care business, so I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, and I also offer boarding depending on availability. I always try to be flexible and work with your pet’s routine and needs. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and routine so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure pets are always supervised, in a safe space, and handled gently. I follow all instructions closely and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they stay happy and active.

About: I am a big animal lover! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and periodically watched animals for friends and family throughout the years. I have delt with animals with disabilities, old age, medications and puppies. I just love animals and everything that comes with them. My pets are my current job right now! I am working on starting a small business from home so caring for my animals or others animals is my top prority! I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love making friends with new dogs. We are all also big cat lovers! We have a dog house outside if your pet prefers and we take our animals on daily walks and/or car rides.

About: I’m a 24 year old looking to expand my dog sitting business. I’m punctual, trustworthy, reliable and loving. I also have vet tech experience and am in school to become a veterinarian so you pet will always be safe in my hands. I’m very active so pets that need lots of exercise are no problem for me as I love to hike and run. I love all animals big and small so if you have cats or other pets I can care for them as well. I’m very neat and quiet and always leave the home looking better than when I came. I’m a non smoker and also don’t party so you won’t have to worry about your home while you are away. I’d love the opportunity to work with you and your pets.

About: I have been dog walking for friends and families for about 10 years now with a variety of dogs! My experience with different breeds of dogs has shown me that all dogs have different needs to be met. My own dogs has taught me to always be aware of everything and to always be there for them. I enjoy being able to connect with animals and will make your dog my first priority! I will be wearing a mask when dog walking or sitting and will be following the CDC guidelines for COVID-19I am a student at Seattle University and all classes are online so I am free whenever you need a sitter or a walker :) Please let me know if you have any questions. Any time, currently I am unemployed and am taking classes online, so as long as I get a heads up I will be able to do whatever you need! I have a fenced place in a family and pet friendly neighborhood. I will figure out what else can be dog-proofed and to make sure that they is nothing they can get into.

“Fantastic experience for mom (while traveling) and fur baby (home, waiting…) for a long weekend away. Alex did a wonderful job with our pup who was thrilled with her daily outings to her favorite parks and daily updates. Already booked for our next vacation and so happy knowing our dog is in excellent hands!”

“I went out of town for 6 days and Craig was able to walk, feed, and provide companionship for my dog. He was well liked by Obi and when I arrived back he was happy to show me Craig with his tail wagging. Craig provided exactly what Obi needed.”

About: Hello my name is Travers! I love dog sitting because I'm passionate about dogs and like to exercise at the same time. Something different about me is I'm a little shy at first, but very comfortable around animals. My experience with dogs comes from being around them from a young age. My older brother is a big dog person too and he had a black lab puppy when I was young and I loved him ( great dog !) I've never turned down a friend's request to puppy sit... I've been a house painter for many years, and a small scale glass blower, now looking to hopefully get into dog care full time... so I'm very open to schedules and have most days available to puppy sit!... I do not have a yard but I live in dog-loving Queen Anne, where there are always dogs & their caregivers out and about, and some nice little parks & trails. I have a comfortable, clean apartment that allows pets, so over-night stays are welcome. I think some great skills of mine that would correlate well with dog sitting are: I'm very patient, reliable, and can throw a stick really far, lol !!! I hope you give me the chance to win over your beloved pet and your friendship! Thanks

“Brendan is reliable and wonderful with our Siberian Husky! We really appreciate that he connects with our pup and takes him on long, brisk walks.”
