Dog Walking Bridgewater

About: I'm currently volunteering at Whiskers Cat Rescue cleaning cages and socializing cats. I am comfortable administering medications to cats. I have owned a small dog in the past. My current cats are a wobbly boy with Cerebellar Hypoplasia and a super senior (21yrs!) old lady cat. My schedule is really flexible right now. I'm not free a few times through the week and weekend but for no longer than a few hours. I'm very patient with animals, especially more skittish ones. You need to work with them even if it takes time to develop a relationship or trust.

“She was punctual, very kind, and extremely flexible. She treated my puppy like she had known my little girl , for her whole life, and I’m so grateful for how quickly she responded and was there for her , even though everything was very last minute. I truly appreciate her kindness and how wonderful she was with my puppy. I would definitely recommend her!🥹🩷🐶”

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals throughout my life and have cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities, from small and shy to big, energetic, and outgoing. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable adapting my approach to each pet rather than expecting every animal to respond the same way. I’m confident caring for both small and large breeds, energetic puppies, adult pets, and seniors who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following specific feeding, exercise, or care instructions. I understand that shy or anxious pets may need time and space to build trust, while more outgoing pets might be ready for playtime the second I walk through the door! Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll pay attention to the little things, keep their routine as familiar as possible, and provide plenty of love, patience, and reassurance. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect reliable communication and updates while your furry family member is in my care. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m happy to work around each pet’s established schedule, whether that means morning or evening walks, regular potty breaks, feeding times, medication, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their favorite humans are away, so I make maintaining their normal routine a priority. Whether your pet needs lots of activity and attention or prefers a quieter day filled with naps and cuddles, I’m happy to adjust my schedule to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. 🐾❤️ When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I want them to feel like their routine hasn’t skipped a beat. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from meals, walks, potty breaks, and medications to favorite toys, sleeping spots, and all those little quirks that make your pet uniquely yours. 🐾 Having owned and cared for animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities throughout my life, I’m comfortable with the shy ones who need time to trust, the big personalities who want to play nonstop, and the seniors who just want some extra patience and love. I also know you’re trusting me with two things that mean a lot to you: your pet and your home. I’ll treat both with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Expect plenty of love, attention, photos, and updates, because being away from your pet is much easier when you can actually see that happy face! ❤️🐶🐱

About: I've had cats my entire life & I have a few years experience pet sitting for and walking dogs and would love for it to become a regular part of my life again. I enjoy spending time with animals sometimes more than people. I'm a college student and a caregiver currently so feel free to reach out with questions about availability. I have a constantly changing schedule and I may be available more than what's marked here. I take care of my own 2 cats daily, and I'd love to take care of more pets in between my work hours or on my days off. I've been in an environment with animals as long as I can remember feeding them, scooping litter boxes, and my favorites giving love, and playing.

“Professional just all around wonderful consistently available and very accommodating can’t recommend Jaime enough!”

About: I’m a driven mama and wife looking to accomplish three things: build consistent exercise into my week, put some extra money toward our financial goals, and have 1–3 steady clients whose pups come to look forward to their weekly walks with me! I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have experience caring for dogs with very different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also owned an aggressive rescue dog, which taught me the importance of reading a dog’s body language, respecting their boundaries, and prioritizing safety. I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive, individualized care and genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m available for a small number of recurring clients, primarily on Thursday and Friday afternoons and one weekend day. I work a hybrid schedule that allows me to provide consistent midday walks during the week, along with longer walks or enrichment hikes on weekends. I intentionally keep my client list small so I can give each dog the time, attention, and care they deserve while building consistency and companionship. I’m currently offering dog walking and enrichment walks only. I’m not offering pet boarding, overnight stays, or in-home pet sitting at this time. My focus is on providing reliable, one-on-one exercise and enrichment for dogs in their own neighborhood or on local walks and hikes.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life and currently help care for my family’s dogs. Through years of daily experience, I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I’ve grown up with labrador retrievers and golden retrievers, so I’m comfortable walking and caring for larger dogs. While I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and committed to making every walk safe and enjoyable. I’m currently a graduate student, and I enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own family’s dogs, and I’m always happy to provide updates after each walk. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, and I have flexibility to schedule walks throughout the week. As a graduate student, I enjoy taking breaks to get outside and stay active, and dog walking is a great way to do that. I’m committed to being reliable, punctual, and making sure each dog gets the attention and exercise they need. Caring for dogs has been part of my daily routine for most of my life. I currently help my family’s dogs, a black lab and a labrador retriever, by taking them on walks, feeding them, making sure they have fresh water, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I also help keep them on their regular routine and make sure they get the exercise they need. Spending time with dogs has always been something I enjoy, and I understand how important it is to provide patient, dependable care while keeping them safe and happy.

“Rachael was incredible! Super flexible, always on time, and knew how to care for our dogs. It’s hard to find someone willing to care for our big babies but she rose up to the challenge. She is always super detailed in how the walks go and keeps us informed about anything that we should know about. We highly recommend Rachael, super polite and responds super quick! Our dogs absolutely loved her, we will definitely be booking again when we need a dog walker. Thank you Rachael!”

“Tori was very communicative and took great care of waffles and took very cute pictures of him on their walk!”

About: I've been taking care of my own dog since we first got her 7 years ago, and I also used to volunteer at the New Milford Animal Shelter. My family fosters animals (both cats and dogs) from Because 4 Paws in New Milford, so I have some basic experience with administering medicines and helping others administer medicines. I've also been a dog sitter for 3 different families. I recently moved back to the east coast and am looking for some side work while I hunt for a full time job. I'm not sure when that will be, so I'm trying not to set my availability too far out, but am still flexible for now! Depending on what the owners are comfortable with, I would love to take the dogs out for a walk at a nearby park or walking trail. We have four cats at our house that are wary of new animals, so I am unable to pet sit at my residence. However, I am willing to spend time with your fur babies at your house or preferred location, and will follow whatever instructions necessary to ensure the comfortability of you and your pets.

“Annmarie is helping me train my dog, she has her own business called Reliable Love Pet Sitting, and she’s already done wonders with my dog in two visits. Couldn’t recommend enough!”

Meg M.

“Caroline is a great communicator and excellent dog-walker. I love how she’s transparent and treats my pup like one of her own. I will definitely book with her again.”

Sarah M.

“Jess was lovely with my dog. I have a German Shepherd and I’m always a bit worried with strangers. Jess came to my house to meet my dog beforehand to make sure they were a good fit which made me feel so much more at ease. Jess even sent me pictures of their walks! She was very accommodating with my instructions and I’m so grateful for her service.”

About: I’ve had a family dog for almost all of my life, I also used to work at a doggie daycare and currently work at a vet hospital. I’ve taken care of dogs for multiple friends!! I love dogs of all breeds and size, but I choose to watch one at a time so I can give all my attention to your fur baby! I work part time so I can watch dogs when I’m not at work and have family that helps when I am at work! I can do boarding for most dogs as long as they come with sleeping arrangements. I have a huge backyard with a gated pool and a pretty big front yard as well. When taking care of other dogs I have a super long rope I attach them up to so they can run freely because we don’t have any fences.

About: I’m reliable, communicative, and will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve been around and caring for dogs for most of my life, including my own dog Max, who I got when I was 14 and truly consider my soul dog. He passed away in July 2025 from complications related to megaesophagus, but for a year and a half before that, I helped manage his condition after we were initially told he only had 30 days to live. That experience taught me so much about patience, consistency, and providing attentive, specialized care. Because of these experiences, I’m especially comfortable with dogs who may need extra patience, have medical needs, or experience anxiety. I work full-time during the week, but I’m always available for morning and evening visits, including feeding, walks, playtime, and general care. I’m off every other weekend, as well as some Mondays and Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for longer visits or overnight stays. I’m also happy to accommodate overnight care when needed, so your pet can stick to their normal routine and feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and will make sure your pet gets consistent care and attention. In a client’s home, I aim to keep things as consistent as possible—following feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes or picking up after pets, and making sure they get plenty of attention and care. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while you’re away. For overnight stays, I help maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable in their environment.
