Dog Walkers in Bertram, IA

About: Ever since I was young I have been surrounded by animals and have always found a connection with them. I have watched and cared for pets owned by friends and neighbors since I was 12 years old. I am currently working part time and have plenty of spare time to take care and entertain your furry friends! I work 2-10pm some days, but message me and we can work out a schedule together! I am flexible and can accommodate accordingly. I prefer to take care of animals in the comfort of their own home. I am very respectful and a trusted individual so your animals and space are safe with me.

About: My experience includes behavior modification, rehabilitation and foster care. Since I was my daughters age I have been pet sitting and working with animals and would like to share the experience I work at home everyday but Thursday. We are available for dog walking and live close to a park trail and we are looking for a family interaction. Crate services, roaming and family integrated home. We are able to walk your animals and provide check ins. I know how animals are part of the family.

About: I started my journey working at a doggy care, interacting, playing with, care the dogs. For the last couple years, I have been at the animal shelter. I have experience in emergency medical care for both cats and dogs. Your pet will be safe with me, in every way. I can give you peace of mind. I am a stay-at-home mom, I am home and available to meet the needs of pets with all different schedules. I am constantly in the mode of enrichment. I deal with each animal in the unique way they need. I have one dog that is not kenneled, while my youngest is when she is going to be left alone for a couple hours. I have a wonderfully structured house that has allowed to me to keep dogs separate when needed and need constant supervision.

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I believe pets deserve a high quality of care. I have adopted dogs and cats in the past. At the moment I only have cats and miss having a doggy friend to walk and give rubs. I am comfortable with all sizes of animals and whatever special needs they may have, just wanna keep the fur babies happy. Currently my schedule allows me to be available: Saturdays and Sundays 10am-7pm Mondays-Friday 8am-6pm If you need different time accommodations message me and I can see what I can do. I don’t offer pet sitting in my home because of my 3 cats. I don’t want to create a stressful environment for any animals. In my clients home I will make sure they have plenty of exercise thru play and going for walks, clean water and sufficient food (accommodating special diet if necessary). Provide a safe environment for them to feel comfortable. I will abide to any and all rules the client has for their home and will keep my own footprint in their home small and clean up after myself.

“She helped us out while our normal walker was away for the week! She was so kind to our pup. She absolutely loved her!”

About: I have always had cats and dogs in my own home. Life long animal lover. I will treat your pet like my own while you trust them in my care. I am a social worker (not a 9-5 job) so I have the flexibility to check on your pet at various times throughout the day. I have a fenced in back yard. I am also strong enough to walk your larger dogs. I can also just sit down and give them all the love and pets they need.

About: Hello everyone! My name is Emily and I am a huge animal lover. I am located in Cedar Rapids and almost always available. I have about 15 years of experience with both cats & dogs and have 4 dogs of my own. I have 3 little girls who are 5, 4, and 9 months 😊 We live in a ranch style home and have a fenced in backyard. I am an active person and will give your pet plenty of love and attention. I will also take dogs on walks if they enjoy that. I have never had an owner unhappy with their pets stay. I have a Facebook page as well with pictures, information, and reviews. Please feel free to call or text with any questions or to book. I work from home so I will be there most of the time to make sure you fur baby gets plenty of attention and play time! I have a fenced in yard so dogs can be out there and play around as much as they want to when we’re home. If they enjoy playing with other dogs I have 1 bigger one and 3 smaller ones. They will be crated whenever we are not home to ensure they’re safe unless they’re used to free roaming and won’t have accidents or be destructive.

About: I've taken care of dogs specifically since I was like 5. Whether it was a friend's dog, a family members or my own. Cats I have taken care of since I was 8. Changing litter? Done. Walking dogs? Done. Training? I do that too! I actually trained my own service dog who has since retired. Feed and water? Of course! Gotta get the essentials. Following directions, I will follow how YOU want your pet(s) taken care of. I have dealt with chihuahuas to great Danes to dogs bigger than that! No animal is too small. I will pick up messes, play with them, train them if you want, and obviously feed and water them. I can even stay over night with a pet if needed! I know some pets need extra support when their humans are a away, and I understand that may mean me staying over night. I have two dogs and two cats. I take care of the two dogs on a daily basis. Cats? Not so much but I do help out when asked as they are not actually mine but my roommates. I take my dogs out at LEAST 3 times a day typically more in warmer weather. But I take them out at least once when I wake up, once after or before lunch, and once before bed after they've ate their dinner. My dogs have stomach issues and only eat once a day near dinner time for me. I get them out more often to play now that its warming up outside In my clients home, as I don't do boarding at my own home, I can bring my own dog if asked for a play buddy but I would like a copy or to see the vaccination records to be safe. I will make sure the animals get some time to play and have plenty of attention while I am there. I will make sure dogs get outside to potty on either the specified schedule from my client or on a schedule I am able to run, but they will get out as much as I can make happen. Cats I'll make sure get some play time, if you're the kind of cat person who let's their cat out on a catio or leash or trust your cat out on its own for a bit I can make those happen too. I will make sure they have fresh litter when needed/requested. I will make sure both cats and dogs have fresh water and food on a schedule determined by the owner or when its needing refilled/changed.

About: Hi! I’m Allyson, a dedicated animal lover located on the SE side of Cedar Rapids. I offer reliable, loving dog walking and care with a flexible schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I have hands-on pet-sitting and walking experience with a variety of animals. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, with breed experience ranging from Chihuahuas and Bulldogs to Shelties and German Shepherds. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience pet sitting and fostering bunnies and understand their unique care, routines, and gentle handling needs I grew up in a home where animals were family- helping care for cats, a Miniature Schnauzer, and a Golden Doodle. As an adult, I’ve rescued multiple kittens, cared for a Saint Bernard, fostered two bunnies, and I currently have two cats of my own. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, including rescue animals. After losing my own dogs, I’m not quite ready to adopt again—but I have plenty of love, patience, and attention to give to yours. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow your instructions closely. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I'm currently working part-time in the evenings, so I have a very flexible schedule in the morning and early afternoon. I also have weekend availability as needed! Your dog’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality, routines, and any special needs so every walk is calm, positive, and stress-free. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including leash preferences, feeding or medication needs, and behavioral cues. Dogs are always kept on leash unless otherwise agreed, and I stay alert to surroundings, traffic, and other animals to ensure safe, controlled walks. I treat every dog as if they were my own and believe trust is built through consistency, patience, and clear communication. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes after each walk so you always know how your pup is doing.
