Dog Walking Brightside

“My 2 dogs, Kirby and Lucy, the cat Oreo and tortoise Gammy love Jill. She takes such great care of all of them. She attends to each animals unique dietary care just as I would. Jill is very caring and dependable. This is her 3rd time looking after them and will definitely use her again. Highly recommend.”

About: i am the ultimate dog/cat lover and whisperer. i am very patient, bubbly and easily develop a strong bond with any pet. i speak to their souls! ask my best friend, chip! he’ll tell you about all the walks, cuddles and fun play times we share everyday :) Services include: dog drop-ins: leave any instructions and it will be closely followed! plus the complementary love and care that naturally comes w my service! will pick up after myself (and your pet), making sure we keep your home the way you left it. dog walks: OK to walk for long periods and lots of adventure! paws will be wiped clean after walks IF your dog allows it (mine does!) and of course lots of petting! PS. CATS are happily welcomed as well! I only work a part time job and I am not in school, which means I have a lot of time for your fur babies! I play close attention to pets at all times, especially when they are in a new environment. I read their body language just like I would with another person. This helps me better understand their wants or needs.

About: What sets me apart is the time, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. I’m home full time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long hours; I’m able to stick closely to their routine, provide companionship, and quickly respond to any needs. I’m also very observant, which is especially important when caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’m patient with shy, anxious, or high energy pets. Whether it’s giving extra belly rubs, helping a senior pet move around comfortably, or keeping a puppy on track with their training schedule, I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Since I stay home to support my family, I have the time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. Pet care is already part of my daily routine; I’m used to feeding on schedule, cleaning up, taking pets out, and making time for play and exercise. Being home allows me to respond quickly to their needs and keep a close eye on their well-being. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and love creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether pets are in my home or I’m visiting theirs, I prioritize keeping their routine as close to normal as possible to help them feel secure. At my home, I provide a clean, pet safe environment with regular feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet time. I follow any special instructions, like medications or preferred toys, and keep pets supervised and comfortable. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines. I make sure pets are fed, walked, played with, and cleaned up after according to the owner’s instructions. I also take time to bond with the pet, so they feel safe while their owner is away. I keep in touch with updates and photos, so owners know their pet is in good hands.

“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”

I also had to help train them prior to them being sent to their new homes. I have dog sit seniors dogs and puppies. I have a huge trail behind my house for some outdoor play and walking and a downstairs balcony in my townhome as well. I own 3 cats as well! Have experience with cat medication , and care . I’m currently available weekend and holidays! I am an Animal Vivarium Manager and can work pet care mostly during those times. However if a week day is needed I can definitely fit that in and work my schedule around it :) I have a fenced patio for playing and a huge hiking trail behind my house with two parks. My current cars are indoor cars but I also let them play on the balcony from time to time for fresh air and outside play.

“Fantastic pet sitter!! have been on the hunt for someone who can handle and feel comfortable with our reactive boy. He’s a total lovebug inside, but outside gets triggered by other animals. Lexa was great with him and put my anxiety at ease. Thank you so much!”

About: I currently work as a Vet Assistant which means I have plenty of experience handling and caring for cats and dogs. I am familiar with any health issue that may come up with your dog and will promote their well-being. Working in the ER, I know how to deal with many diseases so I can ensure your loved one is well taken care of. I can proficiently administer oral and injectable medications if needed. Aside from my medical background, I enjoy exercise and spending time outdoors and will therefore ensure that your pet is well taken care of physically through runs, walks, hikes- whatever it is that they enjoy. I've been a dog owner since I was a young kid and have always loved spending time with the four legged creatures. I will ensure that your pet is loved as if they were my very own pet. I work 4 days a week, 10 hours but am still available to drop by if needed either in the mornings or evening or in between work if it’s nearby. I’m mostly available at any time Friday-Sunday, I can set time aside to be fully devoted to your pet. I will ensure they’re as comfortable as they have been when the owner is home. Allowing them to have their routine. I will ensure I don’t disturb their usual spots and allow them to roam as they are allowed regularly.

About: I absolutely love animals. I've grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats at home. Previously experienced with caring for my senior dog who had CKD. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments as I'm currently working as a vet assistant and studying to be a registered veterinary technician. I recognize that every pet parent has their individualized way of caring for their pet and I strive to support that. Your furry kid means a lot and you should feel confident and comfortable with their care. I currently work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. I have three days throughout the week and nights after work that are available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. I do my best to maintain a safe environment, staying aware of harmful materials, chemicals or products that a pet could get into. Removing or storing these items safely to avoid any negative exposure. Especially for young pets (and labs) that will eat anything.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve been around dogs and cats of all sizes since I was young. I work from home full-time, so flexibility is definitely on my side. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’ll care for yours with the same patience, love, and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is to make every walk and drop-in safe and stress-free! I work remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, walk, or pet sitting, I can easily fit your pet’s routine into my day while giving them the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow your instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and favorite routines. I know every pet is different, and I strive to make each visit feel as stress-free and familiar as possible while treating your home with the same respect I’d treat my own.

“Isabel was great with my two large dogs! She took time out of her day to do a meet and greet and was very helpful in making sure the dogs were taken care of! Looking forward to booking more walks with her!”

“I’m so lucky to have booked with Amir. At the last minute, I found myself needing support walking my dog, Luna, for a week. We started with a “meet and greet” to get a feel for how things would go. Amir was great with Luna and she responded well to his kind and playful approach. As the week continued, Luna would stand at the top of the stairwell waiting in excitement for her walk. They developed a rapport and I’m sure Luna loved the long walks to the park. I really appreciate Amir’s consistency, communication, and dependability. He was great to work with. Highly recommend.”

“Michael was responsive to my texts and emails in a timely manner. He provided photos and updated me on her food and water intake and her bathroom breaks. I would recommend Michael and would use him again.”
