Dog Walkers in Bennett, IA

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.

“Sonja is a very sweet and kind young lady. I am so lucky to have found her. She is always on time and is generous with her time. She has walked my dogs for a couple of days and did great. I can’t thank her enough walking my furbabies for I was unable to due to illness. I definitely will be a return client if needed. Thanks”

About: I have taken care of my brothers dog who is 8 years old (Rottweiler/Lab 70lbs) for almost three years now. And once in a while I watch over my sisters dog who is a 2 year old American bulldog. I’ve taught my my brothers Rottweiler how to stay, sit. He is a very needy dog but I’ve learned to be patient. I taught my sister puppy to sit, give me his paw and leave it. Doggies can be so energetic but that’s the fun part. I’m currently working overnights (10pm/6am). And my mornings/ evenings are pretty flexible. The only days I wouldn’t be able to be free is on Tuesdays evening. At my apartment building we have a fenced yard made for pets if needed. Otherwise my apartment is pet free and your pet is safe. I can also watch them at your place if needed.

About: For years my daughter and I volunteered at a no-kill shelter fostering and adopting out dogs and cats. This gave me experience with several breeds. I work Tuesday through Friday from 8-5. My office is very close to the house and I am able to come home everyday for lunch. I have lots of time to spoil your pets! I live in a condo with a very large yard. Your pets will have the run of the house. I have one cat that rules the roost!

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since I was in high school, from family members, neighbors, or friends! I can provide services for dogs, cats, smaller animals ect. I have cared for puppies that need help with potty training, special dogs that need extra care and help with certain needs, to senior dogs that need help getting up or walking around. I’ve also given oral medications for dogs at multiple different families. I have also been a Nanny for Iowa Elite Nannies since 2018 and pick up shifts for numerous families around the area. I am renovating a house so with all the things that’s going on at my home I’d prefer to come to you for a better safer environment for pets at this time. I am very active and love going on walks and playing with pets in anyway I can to make sure they get all their zoomies out. I currently work full time (7:30am-4:00pm Monday-Friday) as a dental assistant at North Liberty Oral Surgery and Dental Implants. I can provide drop-in visits before/after my work hours or during my free time or weekends. I can possibly do overnights at the rovers house as well if requested and works out with my schedule. My home is currently undergoing renovations at this time so I’m not offering boarding at my home. I will stay at the rovers house with their pet if requested. I love all animals and will treat them like my own. If the pets family has a routine for the animals or specific requests I will obviously follow that and do what is asked. Obviously food, water, and potty breaks are a necessity and I will provide that for your pets. If your pet has an specific diet, allergies, medications Id request that it be written down, so I can always make sure I’m giving your pet the correct portions/amounts.

I enjoy spending time with animals whether its cuddles, active play, or just sitting in the room so they aren't lonely.

About: Hi! My name is Amanda. I have worked in doggie daycare, worked as a bather and in the sales department! At work I got to experience different breeds, temperaments and personalities!

When I do drop ins I have taken them on walks, picked up after them and fed them. I absolutely love working with all animals!

I am still available during the weekends and can also do house sitting during the days that I work! I will follow their daily routine and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. While walking them I will keep distance from other animals to ensure their safety. I will also follow all dietary needs and feeding schedules.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, I’ve done dogsitting gigs for 4years on weekends and in the summers. Walking, feeding, watering, playing, and of course cleaning up after the dogs. I love taking walks, so going on walks with dogs makes it so much better. Three years ago, I helped my parents when they got a new puppy, and cared for it, learning how to take care of dogs on my own, another reason why I love dogs. I love the energy, and the happiness dogs bring off to humans. I just graduated from the university of northern Iowa and have the summer off before I start my first teaching job in the fall! Looking to take care of dogs this summer because I love being around them!! I treat pets at my home or a clients home as the nicest way I can. With knowing it is my clients dog, I will always do my absolute best to give it all its needs, and make the dog as comfortable and happy as possible. I want to give my care to them in the time I’m able to spend with them.

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a little girl, up until he passed away at 14, so I’ve learned a lot about dogs. I’ve also helped plenty of my friends with their dogs, especially my close relatives and their three Aussies in the past three years. I’ve helped with potty training them, as well as feeding, watering, walking, playing ball with them. I’ve also helped with two litters of puppies! I do not have a job currently so I have much free time to spend with dogs and cats! I like to volunteer on Wednesdays and occasionally have dance that night too, and Sundays I have church in the morning, so I’m very free. I am very adaptable, and willing to work with all sorts of dogs to make sure they’re happy and safe! I am a bit of a perfectionist and I will definitely make sure that the things you ask of me get done to your standard, as I want to make you and your pets happy!

About: I love being active with the dogs I sit if possible! Dogs listen to me well as I have utmost respect for them as a living being. My dog is my best friend so I know how important your pup is to you! I am currently managing a busy restaurant, but beginning in mid August my job will be over making my schedule wide open for pet care. I am more than happy to take your dog for a hike on or off leash. I also have a friendly golden retriever that would make a great playmate if appropriate!!

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was just a little kid. I’ve always held a special place in my heart for dogs, along with small critters. Just recently I moved from Wisconsin, working at a humane society there where everyday I did all the basic care routines/evaluations for approximately 40 dogs. It was a blast, but I’d also love to slow down, and give 1 on 1 attention to the needs of each. I am currently a pretty free person, beginning my career of dog training, Bait’s Purpose: K-9. I plan my future around my dogs, and training. I care for pets however is requested by the owner(s), this just varies on what each dog is comfortable with. Dogs are in great care, however.
