About: While I’ve been a lifelong dog owner, I’ve always had a great connection with dogs. Our family English Bulldog, Koa, we had till he was 14 years old and loved and lived life to his fullest. I currently don't have a dog, just a cat with my boyfriend (Jake). My commitment as a gym/fitness owner/coach, and currently in a bodybuilding prep, is why I am not getting a dog of my own but since I am needing to get in my daily steps, I figured that I can get steps in and motivation through dog walking and of course the investment from you! While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m familiar with basic commands, leash manners, crate routines, and positive reinforcement. I’ve handled dogs from 5 lbs to over 100 lbs and love learning their personalities. Whether your pup is a tiny lap dog or a strong puller, I’m comfortable and confident. Friends and clients trust me because I’m reliable, attentive, and always make safety my top priority. I understand how important it is to leave your dog in good hands, and I’m here to provide peace of mind and top-notch care. Items we provide: 6-passenger van where we can transport dogs Extra Leash Dog Poop Bags Water / Water Bowls Treats (on approval by owner(s)) Pup Cups at coffee stops (on approval by owner(s)) While I have a very flexible schedule, I do like to have advanced / structured scheduling either before the new week or for the month, if at all possible. If you happen to need me on Saturday or Sunday, just let me know and I can check my schedule. In my own home (which I share with my boyfriend Jake), I have a 8-month old rescue tabby cat (Sage) who is pretty self sufficient but I love keeping her active with cat tree and toys. I keep her litter box cleaned daily. This is my first cat since being allergic but I’m no longer and it’s been great to be around other cats. My boyfriend and I live active lives so we have chosen not to have a dog of our own at this time which makes our time for you just as nice. I am very familiar with the walking trails in the municipality and carry a bear spray so I am very bear and moose aware. Ensuring your pet(s) are leashed appropriately is also important. I walk my best friends two black labs, hike with another friend who has (3) labs, and I own a gym where dogs are invited. I love to stay healthy and active as I like to keep the dogs and pets im around. Routine is important to both Jake and I. We are both registered with Rover and while I am the main point of contact, rest assure that if I am unable to fulfill my responsibilities, I want to make sure that your pet(s) are not impacted.
“I thought Erica was awesome! My dog did, too! Not only did she walk him, she allowed him to play with a lab of similar age & when my dog returned, he was actually exhausted!!! I thought it could not be done. Thank you, Erica! I highly recommend her!!!”
“Kirsten is wonderful, she came to do a meet and greet and it was clear the dogs both liked her (and one of my dogs is picky). She walked and played with them, and sent lots of great pictures. Will be using her regularly.”
“Mandy was fantastic walking my dog, I came home to a happy pup who is pretty high energy and needs to burn it off. Great communication and would definitely book again!”
“Alejandra was prompt, communicative, and you can tell how much she loves dogs. She took lots of great photos of the dogs on their walks and I knew they were safe and well cared for while I was at work.”
“Alex is great. We have had a few dog walkers previously and she is the best! She gives us great updates on our furbaby, lots of pictures and never cuts the walks short. We have a Chihuahua mix that doesn't always take to new people well to the point that he wouldn't even walk with some of our previous dog walkers. Not a problem with Alex.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for people that I work with for several years & it's always brought me so much joy. I own a Golden Retriever pup & we go out for dailys walks, park play dates & hikes. Hoping I can help others take care of their furry family members when needed. I'm available Monday-Friday any time of the day to take your puppy out for walks, play time, or have a doggie play dates with my Golden Retriever pup Oso. I live on base and I am currently home all day. I have a friendly Golden Retriever pup named Oso who would enjoy your doggy's company.
“Eric did a wonderful job walking our pups! He was on time, we got pics of them out on their walk and had 2 happy pup faces when they got home! Thank you Eric!”
“Tessa takes great care of Dash! She always communicates effectively, is easy to work with and always keeps me updated on how Dash is doing. Would highly recommend!”
About: Love to walk and hike, have one lovable six year lab mix that is super friendly and still thinks he's young and would love to take your dog out. I am busy most of the day but am able to house sit and/or walk your dog rain/snow or shine alone or with my lab mix. I have a six year old lab mix that could stay home, or can walk with your dog on walks/hikes. My dog loves everyone and other dogs.
About: I've been taking care of the pets, including cats/dogs, for my friends and family. My experience as a pet sitter includes feeding, walking, and playing with pets daily. I've always ensured the pets feel comfortable with their familiar surrounding and follow their routine. Also, provide bathing, grooming, or training for pets when necessary. The care of your pet will be worked into my daily routine. I work for the school district and would be able to check in before and after work, with my weekends free to spend plenty of time with your pet! I have a fenced yard and a dog door, which allows my two friendly dogs to keep your pets busy outside. I can easily crate your dogs if needed.
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have 3 pups of my own and a variety of exotic animals. I have worked as a dog trainer and volunteer at the vet and rescues. I am very active so long walks are my favorite and I have a soft spot for old animals. I communicate very well. The standards I have for the care of my pets is exceptionally high and I provide that same experience for every pet I take care. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to do check ins or walks multiple times a day, if needed, and also have weekend availability. I am a big fan of communication(and photos!) but am trustworthy and reliable enough that you can also be out of service and rely on me to take care of things.
About: Ive lived with and taken care of animals all my life, and love taking care of and playing with them.I always strive to make sure they get lots of pets and love.❤️ I can typically care for your animals anytime.

“Laura was very wonderful to work with! Easy to communicate with, flexible, always prompt and great with my girl Lola!!! Book with her please 🫶🏽”
IDA & JAKOB L.
“Ida and I often go on walks together and she’s always lead one of my dogs, Baloo and Daisy. Baloo is my big boy who walks well on the leash and Daisy is my wild child who’s a little more antsy on the leash. She’s handled both of them very well. She always gives them some pets and scratches before and after walks. With permission, she’s also given them some treats! I would 100% trust my dogs with Ida. They whine in excitement when they see her 💜.”

Nancy A.
“As a dog owner for most of her life Nancy knows the responsibilities that comes with caring for a fur child. She loves to go on long walks with dogs for exercise, she's great at giving them food, water, and medicine as needed daily, and she is good at training dogs as most of the dogs she's owned were rescued as puppies. Nancy is a responsible mature woman who will care for your home while you are away as if it were her own, you can trust her to follow your written care instructions, take care of your dog and communicate with you while you are away through text.”
Kyle C.
“Kyle is someone who works hard to learn all the unique personality traits of the animals in his care to best provide the support they needed. He is dependable and is someone who can be counted on, not just to take care of my animals when I am away but to treat them as if they are his own and give them the proper care, pampering, and spoiling, they need.”
