Dog Walkers in Beach Lake, PA

“Katherine has been a sitter for my little Ralphie for over three years now. She has taken him for both short weekends and week long trips. Her house is large, practically baby-proofed, and pet friendly with LOTS of room to play. Ralphie is quite an anxious dog and I don’t like leaving him with just anyone —he tends to get sick when mom/dad are away. However, he LOVES staying at Katherine’s house. She and her husband work from home and are able to spend lots of time with him. Ralphie always comes home tired and happy.”

“Isabella has three dogs at home and provides excellent care for them. She plays with them daily and lets them outside when needed. She also feeds bathes and grooms them. The dogs are excited to see her when she returns home.”

About: When I was a kid I dreamed of getting a dog, but my brother's allergies meant that was out of the question. My solution to this was volunteering to walk my friends' dogs or offering to pet sit whenever I could. I put up flyers in my busy apartment building and started walking dogs professionally, which quickly became one of my favorite after school activities. I’ve also had the incredible opportunity to work at an animal sanctuary where I was able to expand on my skills and really put them to the test. My love for all animals drives me to provide the best care for every pet I meet! I'm accepting new clients and have a lot of availability right now. Caring for your beloved pets brings me joy and I would love to have the opportunity to help. I'll follow whatever routines you usually do at home to try and make your fur babies feel at ease. However you typically care for them is how I will try my best to go about it.

“I've known Logan for over 10 years now and he has always been great with animals. Many times in the past I have seen him dog sit for multiple people inside and outside of his family including for myself. He has a real connection with dogs and is a big animal lover. Good at reading a dogs emotions and I've seen him able to be patient when needed with dogs.”

“Best pet caregiver EVER I would not leave my pets with anyone but Harmony. She goes above and beyond to make sure my fur babies are loved, spoiled, and cared for when I am away.”

“Melissa provides excellent pet care services for my 3 cats and dog. My German Shepherd is high energy, and reactive to other dogs, but Melissa has become accustomed to her needs. She is friendly and the animals love her. Your pets will be in good hands.”

“Maddie is one of the most reliable people I know! She is extremely responsible, patient and kind. She goes above and beyond for the pet's she takes care of. She has a knack for softening even the most difficult pups--her warmth and gentle manner make any pet feel welcome and taken care of. These qualities make her the perfect candidate to care for your pet :)”

“Best Dog walker i’ve met! She is extremely sweet and social. She took the time to get to know my dog, and what he enjoys best. They are a great pair. My dog comes home well exercised and then sleeps for hours! If you are looking for someone to meet your fury pups she is the Women to go to! I will forever be choosing her to walk my dog!”

“Lily is really sweet. We thought Maeve would be a problem, but Lily handled her just great”

About: Growing up we had Anatolian shepherds and my first dog as an adult was an English Mastiff. So, large breeds are welcomed! I rescued an older dog off the streets when I lived in St. Thomas. This has made me patient and comfortable with dogs that may not be so great on a leash. I had a diabetic cat and had to give her insulin shots and when my Mastiff fell ill there were numerous medications involved. Therefore, I’m comfortable with administering medication. I’m happy to stop in and check on your beloved pet, take for walks, and give lots of love while in your home. I will treat your pup as I treat my own! I’m looking forward to meeting you and your fur-child! I’m available mornings, afternoons and evenings. I’m also available to stay in your home for petcare while you’re on vacation. Happy to help with all your pet needs! In your home, I will follow all instructions provided. I will treat your pet as I treat my own. You can expect long walks, tons of play time and lots of attention.

“Angie was great. Our pups loved her. She was receptive to our preferences and demonstrated an ease or operation consistent with her years of experience in dog care.”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and I’ve always loved animals. I grew up with dogs mostly in childhood and learned how to care for them. When I got older, my family began to own cats and I lived with some cats for periods of time. So I have strong foundational knowledge of proper pet care and how to show affection to any pet I’m spending time with. I’m currently very free and my schedule is wide open. Just let me know what you need and I’m sure we can work something out. I currently do not own any pets. I am under an agreement with my landlord which does not allow me to have any personal pets. However, when I take care of client’s pets I make sure to follow the instructions precisely as they leave them. I also spend a lot of time with the pet and play with them. I enjoy going on dog walks because of the exercise. I stay in touch with the owners if I have any questions about anything.

“Olivia is a kind, passionate person that will do an excellent job walking your dog! I have used her for over 5 years on the side with my 5 husky’s and she’s always done a great job walking EVERY single one. Great worker.”

“Rose is great ! Mr. Howell LOVES her. She is dependable and I appreciate that she gives me feedback about my dog's status - loose poop, eats grass, etc. My dog has severe allergies and sensitive skin and stomach, so this info is very helpful especially when trying out new medications or food. Rose is also quick to respond to messages. I am beyond greatful to have found her and will definitely use her in the future.”

About: I am committed to only offering the best care and comfort to your pets. Right from starting as a pet sitter, I’ve taken care of a senior dog with issues like incontinence, and adhering to a schedule that fits his needs best. I have experience in administering medication and using a diaper wrap to fit his needs at night. Requirements like this do not throw me off of offering your pet the best love and care a sitter can give. I am a college student during the week, so my main pet-sitting hours will be open during weekends, unless there’s an early morning short visit that comes my way. When visiting a client’s home for pet care, I always make sure the pet is comfortable and no one (especially cats) move or knock over objects that can disrupt the functionality of the home. I’ve had experience living in someone’s home before while pet sitting and am always committed to leaving it as pristine as when I arrived- even when some pets were committed to having a bit too much fun

“Vivian is a very experienced dog handler. She will treat each dog as if it were her own and thier care is her top priority. I worked with her in a grooming salon and also she was a member of our local Therapy Dog Chapter. She is kind and you will feel very comfortable leaving your dog , knowing that she is qualified and responsible.”
