About: We have been around so many animals since we were little girls (dogs, cats, bunnies, lizards, snakes, hamsters, fish, … the list goes on lol), but dogs are the pet we’re most familiar with. We have always helped out with walking/taking care of dogs since we grew up with almost all our friends and family having dogs. They’re family :) We are available anytime (Tuesdays through Saturday) during the summer! We will be starting a Dental Assisting Program in September so our schedule will be tighter by then. For now, we can do daily/weekly (with the exceptions of Mondays and Sundays) :) We will always make sure the dog is comfortable and at ease in its environment. Whether thats outside being walked or even inside when they are getting to know us. It is important to have a mutual trust.
“Giving sarah 5 star review is easy. She's prompt and responsive. I was happy to check in our camera system and see her sitting with and attending to my sweet old girl.. she fouled instructions to the tee and left any detailed information on my pooch and what she did at the house.”
“Cindy went above and beyond and helped us out very last minute. She is responsive and caring. I’d recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog walker!!”
“Great job, thank you!!”
About: I have had dogs all my life and absolutely have a soft spot for senior dogs. Currently I have 2 dogs. A Senior Golden Retriever named Skye and a 9 month old Hound-Lab mix named Sonny. Since Sonny is a puppy he pulls on a leash and jumps, I have experience with dogs that have these characteristics. The Dog breeds that I have the most experience with are French Bulldogs and Golden Retrievers. I prefer to work with medium/small dog breeds, however, I am open to working with bigger dog breeds as well. I am a full-time student at East Carolina University in North Carolina studying elementary education. I am residing in New Jersey from May 9th- August 10th. My schedule varies throughout the week. However my schedule is flexible and I am able to work with you on times and schedules that fits you and your pets needs. DATES NOT AVALIBLE: I will not be available from May 24th- 29th or through June 6th-13th. All other dates I am available unless changed. I am used to crated dogs and non- crated dogs. I am very experienced in following directions and rules as needed. I also am used to walking dogs every morning and evening if needed. I do ask that there is a list of all animals and how much they eat, what times they are fed, and any special precautions (medicine, eating in separate rooms, different foods, etc.) that are needed for each pet. Lots of playing and petting is to be expected.
