Dog Walking Briggs

About: My name is Ariel! I’m an attentive and responsible pet lover residing in Corktown. I am a registered nurse with an extremely flexible schedule. I have 3 years of experience with many happy, repeating Rover clients. My clients and their pets mean a lot to me! My goal is to put your mind at ease while you’re away, and treat your pets like they are my own. Please don’t hesitate to provide me with any and all detailed requests for your furry friends! My full-time job as a registered nurse means my schedule changes weekly. I have a lot of flexibility, and can usually accommodate irregular schedules. Feel free to message me and work out plan that best fits you and your pets’ needs. I’m more than happy to be accommodating to your special requests - don’t be afraid to ask! I’m patient and willing to take the extra time to work with slower senior pets as well as rambunctious young pets that may need a little more direction.

“I had a regular walker cancel for a life interruption last minute on my midterm test day and Lukis was wonderful. It was as if they were Kronk’s caretaker for months. He was happy and I had no worries about him while I was testing. I would definitely go to them again for any caretaking needs in the future.”

“Our dog is a little wary of strangers and he loved Jeannette right away!! He greeted her like family the first time he met her and I immediately felt comfortable having our dog in her care. She is a total professional and gives us such peace of mind. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.”

“Randi professionally amicably, efficiently and thoroughly cared for my Shih Tzu during this last trip that I was gone out of state. I really appreciate the way that she took care of my dog and documented with thorough feedback. I feel confident using rover.com because of the communication and the insurance.”

About: Both my parents are veterinarians, so I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, and even a turtle. I have tons of experience with animals, and would love to meet yours! I would love to come walk them, take care of them, and give your extended family some extra love! I work 9-5 but can work around that schedule & am free on weekends! I love to take my dog on long walks, and love to hangout with cats and play with them. In my home I take very good care of my pets and check on them often.

About: No matter the age or personality of your pet, I love them all and will happily care for them as if they're my own beloved pet. I'm a new empty nester who moved to Detroit from Austin, Texas and looking for something meaningful to do while I look for full time work. I don't just do the basics and run out, I also love to spend time giving your pet attention whether it's snuggles, scratches or playing fetch.

About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.

About: I love animals! I’m a professional, working part-time and from home! I enjoy exercising and like to make it fun with my pup! I have a Bernedoodle puppy who loves playing with other dogs! I My siblings and I had many animals growing up from rabbits to horses to dogs—we had 8 at one time, with a cat! I like to think of us as the Doolittle’s :)! I’m ready and excited to provide pawsome, loving and attentive care to your animal baby! I’m currently working part-time and have a flexible work schedule; your pup will be priority. I am attentive and able to put your animals needs first. Fully fenced backyard and i will take your pup for walks in the neighborhood if that is preferred over play and bathroom use in the backyard.

About: I’ve cared for plenty dogs and cats over the years, helping family, friends, and neighbors with feeding, walks, playtime, distributing medication, potty breaks, and check-ins. I even have my own love baby . I’m very patient, attentive, dependable. I only accept bookings on days when I’m completely available, allowing me to dedicate my full attention to your pet. I plan my schedule around each booking so your pet receives consistent care, companionship, playtime, and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow your instructions and routines, keep a close eye on your pet, and treat your home with the same and or even better respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and pictures so you can feel confident while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of puppies , dogs from the young age of 7, and let me tell you i love to feed , and bathe and take them for a nice 30 min walk. I'm a stay at home mom with 6 respectful children who loves them too, while the children are at school I have plenty of time to go for walks and even after we can go for an evening walk, with a bunch of laughs. Walking dogs outside on a leash making sure that the dog and or puppy gets fresh air while going for a walk at the park or outside the apartment.

“Alicyn was friendly and very patient with our anxious rescue dog!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I would walk my dogs daily, to explore and go to the bathroom. I would also groom them myself. I am also familiar with cats too. I currently work part-time flexible shift during the week. I am available for boarding after 9 a.m. and on the weekends. I also specialize with deaf dogs. I will be getting gates and crates if needed fur your fur babies. When outside your puppy will me monitored at all times. Safety is #1 for all pups.

“I had a broken foot so I couldn’t walk my dog. Allie saved the day. My dog is not yet well trained but she’s sweet. Allie got along great with her and I’m sure my pup is going to miss her. I look forward to booking with Allie again. She’s lovely and kind and my willful dog made a new friend. Thanks again Allie!!”

About: Professional housesitter, LGBT+ND Friendly. My homebody routine means tons of time with your pet. I'm very tidy, and a good fit for clean nonsmoking homes. Over 200+ nights per year petsitting! Your place is my home, not just short visits. I love multiple pet households of 2, 3, 4 or more. I normally schedule only one family at a time, to give your pets focused attention. I am patient when it comes to your pets' anxiety or special needs. I love written instructions, and take medication seriously. Since I WFH, I can plan my day around tons of 1:1 time with your pets. I also offer daytime care in your home via Housesitting even if you don't need overnight, or you can book Drop Ins. I usually send you 2+ updates with photos per day. I'm mature, sober, nonsmoking; I don't vape or use drugs, not even caffeine. I have decades of experience caring for houses and pets. Note: All of December will be at Rover Holiday rates. After our initial visit, it is standard to do cold swaps: I arrive after you leave, and depart before you return. This means smoother transitions for pets and humans. One of the most common questions I get from new inquiries: Yes you can book multiple Drop Ins or Walks before your sit so we can all get to know each other better. This works really well. I keep one slot open on a weekday morning for Rover Meet and Greet. If that time does not work, you can absolutely request a day and time for a Drop In that fits with your schedule. Nonsmoking and nonvaping, clean homes only. A comfortable guest bed (or your bed) with fresh clean sheets is very important to me. Start times before 8am, end times after 8pm, drives over 15 minutes are each $30 additional, not included with your Rover estimate. Your home is my home base. I "move in" and bring my groceries/book/yoga mat/work things. Playtime, downtime, and sleepytime are spent with your pet, for tons of attention. My commitments are important to me, and I genuinely care. I am responsible, and a great communicator. I will send photos and updates, and always respond.

“Annie is wonderful! Our pup seemed to really enjoy his walk and we are so grateful that we can trust her to occupy him for a bit and expend some energy while we are at work!”
