Dog Walking Bloomfield

About: I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including a special love for senior animals. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs and I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need—whether that means slower routines, medication support, or just a calm, comforting presence. I’m also experienced with more independent or “spicy” cats and dogs through my time volunteering at a local animal shelter, and know how to read their boundaries, build trust at their pace, and make them feel safe without forcing interaction. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and intentionally build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. This allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I also like to set clear expectations with owners ahead of each visit so I can make sure I’m meeting their preferences and providing consistent, reliable care. I am happy to accommodate all requests according to individual pet's needs after a conversation with the pet owner! Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out :)

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs growing up with so many pets of my own. From family pets to friends and neighbors I’ve walked, feed, and bathe them all. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have a lot of free time from 8:30 to 2 o’clock and 6:00 to 9 on the weekdays. On the weekends I’m available all day. I provide loving, attentive care for your pet right in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet cuddle time so they experience consistency while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs at every stage. From energetic puppies who need patience and structure, to adolescent dogs learning good habits, to our sweet senior dogs who benefit from a slower pace and extra attention. I also have experience volunteering with animal shelters, which taught me how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and anxiety levels. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet as an individual. Some dogs want an adventure buddy, some want a cuddle companion, and others just need a calm, reliable presence while their owners are away. I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a high school teacher, I'm patient, responsible, and highly communicative. I'll treat your pet like a member of my own family and am happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I'm a teacher on summer break with flexible hours. I understand our furry friends don't always live by the same schedule we do, and am happy to provide them with the midday walks/socialization they need so you can come home to a happy pet. I'm happy to provide care in your home, secure yard, or neighborhood where your pet is most comfortable. Care in my home involves comfy couch access, walks on streets with sidewalks, and plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. Safety is my top priority, so I always use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, closely supervise outdoor time, and make sure pets have a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. Upon request, I am happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Hello, my name is Christina. I am truly a lover of animals, and have been since I was a child. I have grown up with a range of different animal companions including: dogs, guinea pigs, birds and fish. You know that person you see on the bench surrounded by pigeons because they keep breaking off pieces of their lunch to give to them? That's me! Or, that person you always see feeding the same stray cats that live in your local area? Also, me! I also happen to be a very strong advocate for the rights and well being of ALL animals and it breaks my heart to see any treated unkindly or unfairly. Work Experience: I have extensive experience working with animals. I have been volunteering at animal shelters since I was a preteen, and later went on to becoming employed as an Animal Caretaker in my adult years at ASPCA. I have worked with a variety of animals from cats and dogs to guinea pigs, turtles, and even goats. It was a very demanding job, to put it lightly. Though, most people would assume otherwise when it comes to working with animals. But, due to my experience, I know exactly how much effort and work goes into actually properly caring for an animal and catering to its distinctive needs. I was also the owner of a small dog walking/pet sitting business outside of Rover, which I did for 3 years. Lastly, I would like to mention that I am a very detail oriented person, and a bit of a perfectionist. If I do a job, I make sure I do it well. I am also immensely compassionate and emphathic when it comes to all living creatures, so I think with these skills combined, I would be perfectly fit to look after your furry, feathery or scaly friend. I'm currently available to work anytime. I am available to work on weekdays and weekends, preferably in the mornings and afternoons. I can also be available on some evenings and overnights. If I am unavailable for whatever reason, I will immediately let the client know. I will take care of pets based off exact instructions provided by clients. Typically, I would take dogs out on long walks in the surrounding areas or backyards, play with and feed all animals, and ensure that their water bowls are changed and filled with clean water, and all litter boxes, cages or tanks are cleaned. I will make sure to be vigilant when it comes to clients' pets to make certain they are safe at all times. And, you can ensure that I will leave the clients' home clean and exactly how it was found, and once finished, all doors and windows will be locked and secured to prevent possible intrusions. I am someone who always double checks to make sure a door is locked.

About: I have two kitties of my own, but have experience with both dogs and cats, including giving extra medical attention to elderly pets. I grew up around animals and absolutely love being around all kinds of pets. Would love to help out with your fur babies! I work full remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very communicative and responsive, and will do my best to accommodate your schedule and needs! If I am in your home, I will be respectful of your space and ensure everything is left clean and how it was upon arrival!

“Jenette is a fantastic dog walker! She was super quick to schedule a meet and greet. Was great handling our 6 mo old beagle mix and taught us a few tricks to reduce leash pulling!”

Grace L.

“Sadi was great. My dog is very nice, but also has a lot of energy and can be tough to get used to in the beginning. Sadi was wonderful with my pup all weekend. Great updates and communication. Won’t hesitate to reach out for future help. Thanks Sadi.”

About: I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and patient looking after your pets, and I always try to give them lots of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs. I currently offer drop-in visits, evening house sitting, and walks. I know every pet has their own personality, so I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have a senior dog of my own who has a special diet and is partially blind, so I understand the extra patience and attention some pets may need. During walks, I keep her close to me, help guide her safely up and down stairs, and carry her when needed. I also administer her eye drops daily and make sure she stays comfortable and relaxed. Caring for her has taught me how important gentle, attentive care is, especially for senior pets or pets with special needs. I have a fairly flexible schedule! I’m currently available weekday afternoons and evenings, as well as full availability on weekends for Over night House sitting, drop in visits for both cats and dogs, and dog walking! Visits include feedings, fresh water, potty breaks, walks and playtime! I’m happy to help keep up with your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed in their own home. For walks, I focus on making sure your dog has a safe and fun outing.

About: Animals have always been a major part of my life, and my experience caring for them goes beyond just basic pet sitting. I have volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained hands-on experience walking and handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. This has taught me how to read body language, build trust quickly, and make every walk safe and enjoyable for each dog’s individual needs. I also have personal experience as a foster parent to cats. I successfully helped one of my fosters find her forever home, and I proudly became a “foster fail” with another who I couldn’t imagine letting go. I currently care for a blind cat, which has deepened my understanding of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, predictable environment for special-needs pets. In the past, I also cared for a cat with feline leukemia who was incredibly special to me, and I made sure he was always comfortable, loved, and supported. My background has given me a strong sense of compassion, responsibility, and intuition when it comes to animals. I treat every pet like my own, and I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel complete peace of mind while they’re away. I am currently working per diem, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I am also in a season of exploring my passions and focusing on work that feels meaningful to me. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I love building trust with every animal I meet. I care for pets in clients’ homes by following their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and any medications. I adjust to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re social or need space. I also keep the home clean, secure, and provide updates so pet parents feel at ease.

About: Hi, I’m Yari! I’ve grown up and cared for pets my entire life. I have a 12-year old beagle-mix pup 🐶 who loves naps and going on sniffaris. 💚 I have cared for dogs and cats with separation anxiety, leash pulling, and reactivity from ages ranging from puppies to seniors. I’m familiar with basic obedience training and positive reinforcement techniques. I’m experienced in administering oral medications and managing complex feeding schedules. 🩷 Every pet gets personalized attention. Whether your dog has high energy and needs a long, brisk walk, or your cat prefers quiet companionship and feather wand playtime, I adapt my visits to your pet's needs. 🩵 For walks: I follow your routines explicitly to ensure a stress-free experience. I avoid off-leash areas, enforce strict safety measures on walks, and practice safe socialization. 🧡 For house-sitting: I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I provide regular updates and photos through the Rover app so you have total peace of mind while you are away. 🤍 CPR & First Aid Certified 💛 Please feel free to ask any questions :) I’m currently working from home part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m available weekdays and weekends during the mornings (10am-12pm), midday (12pm-2pm) and afternoon/night (2pm to 10pm) for walks and drop-ins. I also offer overnight stay both during the weekdays and weekends with dedicated morning and evening pet time. I request a meet and greet before accepting to take care of your pet at your home to align on expectations. In this meet and greet, we would review your pet’s daily routine, dietary needs, medication schedules, and behavioral quirks. Also discuss home access, safety measures, and disclosing security cameras or household staff who may come by during the visit. For house-sitting, I will ensure consistent communication by sending 2-3 updates per day with photos and summaries of how your pet ate, their bathroom habits, and how they behaved. I will also treat your residence with respect.
