Dog Walking Bluff

“Maria was fabulous. She was consistent and kind and Kev fell in love with her. She was always quick to respond to messages and gave daily feedback on his walks. We will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.

“I cannot recommend Alex enough. Alex was incredibly accommodating, reliable, and thoughtful with his visit. He takes the time to provide real care and attention.”

“Jagger had a nice first walk/stroll with Lara. She communicated well and followed the tips we discussed at the meet and greet. He looks forward to their next walk. Thanks!”

About: I have worked with search and recuse dogs in both training and care taking. Not only would your furry child be taken care of, but you might come back to them knowing a few new tricks. I have also taken care of the dogs of some of my neighbors, including a lot of bigger breeds such as German Shepherds, Cane Corsos, and wolf dogs. But I am gentle with the smaller ones too. My expertise includes basic care taking such as bathing, brushing, walking, and diets. But can further go into training, puppy care, and even some SAR basics if you're ever interested. However most importantly, I remain flexible to the specific needs of your furry child. I currently work part time and I am a college student so my time although volatile, is still flexible. I’m usually available at any time Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. On Tuesday and Thursday I am available after 5pm. I’m also open to any overnight care any day of the week. I remain flexible to the needs of your dog based on their specific care and routine. Upon my arrival or during discussion, I always ask what the dog can and cannot eat, how often should they eat, any medical concerns to be aware of, and their hobbies. This is to ensure that your furry child remains safe, and does not become confused. I can meal prep according to specific instructions given, and ensure they’re active throughout the day through scheduled walks, playtime, and care. During my stay I ensure that your furry friend is in the best condition before you return and includes a bath and brush (unless specifically instructed not to). And furthermore, ensure a clean home by the end. While I’m there I do not only take care of your pet, but your home.

About: Since I was born, I have had dogs and cats around me. I have delivered cats and dogs when living on a farm, and taken care of them my whole life. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, as well as reactive and rescue animals. Although I do not currently have any pets of my own, I often am the friend who pet sits because of my love for animals. I would love to eventually get my own animal, but I am not currently in the financial situation to provide the life for an animal that it deserves, so this is a fun way for me to be around animals! I work remote, so I have very open flexibility. I am the go-to friend when going out of town and needing someone to care for your baby. I am easily able to work on the go, and can even work from your own home if needed. As well, I am a graduate student, but I only have classes in the evening. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to visit your pet in their own home, and take them out regularly for walks and bathroom breaks. In my own home, I do not currently have any pets, but I have a pet friendly home and a large fenced in back yard. I am comfortable being in a client's home and taking their dogs around their neighborhoods. Because of my housing situation, I offer boarding services. I have lots of space for big dogs, and my backyard creates a safe space for reactive dogs to get some energy out without other people or dogs around.

“Brittani is great with our puppy. We signed up for a daily walk and she does an awesome job of keeping us in the loop with Murphy’s progress.”

“I cannot say enough about Gabriella. She is incredibly professional and has such amazing, positive energy. We have two beagles, and from the very first meet and great, they felt completely comfortable and excited around her. Which says a lot! It is truly clear that she knows how to connect with dogs. Every walk last week seems to have gone smooth, reliable, and based by the pictures I received, full of happy tail wags. I feel totally at ease knowing my pups are in such great hands. Highly recommended.”

Ricardo S.

“Krista was great. Zoe immediately loved her and Coby didn’t mind the wake up call from the couch to meet his new friend. Dogs were walked, fed, and given treats as requested. Proper leash, walking perimeter followed, house locked, and key promptly returned. We even received a picture of the walk. Neither dog expressed any separation anxiety while their humans were on a day trip. I was super happy and will call on Krista in the future. Dogs give her 5 woofs!”

Sarah B.

“Richard walked our two dogs for the first time recently and the experience exceeded my expectations. Both are extra large dogs--80 and 130 pounds. Not easy customers (both react to deer, dogs, etc.), but he managed them very capably. He was very knowledgeable, timely, and attuned to the dogs needs, as well as agreeable to work with. Will definitely book him again.”

Joy J.

“Thank you so much for walking Turtle! Abigail was great when I needed to communicate a couple things last minute, and she was thorough in making sure our dog got the attention he needed! :)”

Jen V.

“Natalie made me feel like I could easily leave town & enjoy myself knowing Ozzy was being well cared for! Not only does she have a great vibe that I picked up on, but Ozzy did as well. She walked him, played with him, & fed him while I was away. I would 100% recommend her services!”

Laikyn C.

“Very friendly and approachable. She was nice to Ellie and followed instructions. Ellie’s seemed really happy after her walk with her. I would definitely recommend her!”

Luisa S.

“Laura is absolutely great! She’s so good with Jameson and he gets excited every time the door bell rings to go for his walk! Her communication and willingness to help goes above and beyond!”

About: I've had hands-on experience caring for animals at different points throughout my life, primarily helping friends and family with their pets. My experience includes caring for, helping raise, and working on basic training with dogs and cats. I've also rescued and raised a baby mouse, which taught me just how much patience, attentiveness, and compassion even the smallest animals need. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand how important it is to know your companion is safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, fresh water, walks, play and enrichment, litter care, companionship, and following an animal's established routine and care instructions. I respect that every animal has their own personality, boundaries, and way of communicating. Some want lots of interaction and affection, while others feel safest when given space and allowed to approach on their own terms. I pay attention to those cues rather than forcing interaction. I'm dependable, attentive to detail, and respectful of both the animals in my care and the homes I'm trusted to enter. My goal is to give your pet compassionate, individualized care while giving you peace of mind when you can't be there. I work a rotating schedule which gives me multiple weekdays and weekends off throughout the month. On my days off, I can offer more flexible availability for walks, visits, companionship, and house sitting. I keep my Rover availability updated so pet parents can see when I'm available, and I value clear communication when coordinating care. I understand that caring for someone's pet also means being trusted with their home. I take that responsibility seriously and will respect your space, privacy, household rules, and pet-care instructions. I pay attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, routines, and anything else needed to keep your pet safe. I also believe trust should be built with the animal. I'll allow your pet to become comfortable with me at their own pace rather than forcing interaction, while staying attentive to changes in their behavior or needs. Clear communication with pet parents is important to me, and I'm happy to provide updates while you're away.

About: I was born around Golden Retriever and my family currently has 2 Portuguese Water dogs, so I’m well prepared for the high energy pup and the frantic pups. I always take a patient perspective when it comes to the dogs and cats I care for. They are their own animals and understanding that allows them room to express themselves, so I can best care for them! I love animals and volunteer at various animal shelters to support my community. I dedicate full days each week for pet care. I make sure these days are free in case my clients need a more focused care. I work part time during the week, but am incredibly flexible which allows me to meet many pet care needs! I provide love, connection, food, water, walks, some cleaning of pet areas, etc. Whatever you would normally do for your pet I will oblige and assist you in that way

“Times did a wonderful job walking our two dogs mostly while we were at work. She was on time, made sure our home was secure and the dogs were well cared for. Rudy and Dasher both said they loved spending time with her! We will definitely use her again!”

Colleen H.

“Amanda and her son were great with Nash! He loves little kids and I’m sure it made his day getting to play! She was super responsive and was able to take Nash out last minute which relieved a lot of stress when my prior arrangement fell through the night before. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since high school and have 8+ years of experience. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also helped care for my sister’s dogs, including disabled dogs that required extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs, and understand how to adjust care based on their needs. I work virtually, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m a huge animal lover and vegan, so I take caring for animals very seriously and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work virtually and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and stick closely to their normal routine. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special needs to make sure they feel secure and stress-free. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and even disabled dogs that require extra care and patience. I keep a clean, calm environment and provide close supervision at all times. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Shannon has walked bear 2 times now! Despite the snowy cold weather for the first walk, Shannon was still willing to walk bear, which I really appreciate! Took photos and followed all the instructions I gave about giving treats! Thank you!!!”
