Dog Walkers in Buena, WA

About: Ive been a dog lover as long as I can remember, and as soon as I turned 18 I started working at a dog daycare/boarding facility. It was a blast! I loved getting to know every dog individually and watch them grow. After a few years I was ready to find more of a career with dogs so I switched over to dog grooming. I’ve been grooming professionally for the last 3 years and love showing dogs that grooming doesn’t have to be a scary thing. Keeping the pets safe and happy is always my top priority when working with them in any situation. I treat every pet like they are my own! Recently became a stay at home mom so my days are very open. I still do some grooming at peoples homes but it isn’t anything consistent so I am very flexible. I have experience using all different types of collars and leashes depending on each dogs needs. Safety will always be a top priority when taking dogs off of your property for walks and if their collars/harnesses are not secure I will have a slip lead on hand that can be used as a backup in case they slip their leads. I will also continue any training you are doing with your dog for loose leash walking/reactivity to make sure there is no going backwards! I also am very experienced going through doors/gates while dogs try to get through so no escapes on my watch!

“Peggy was wonderful and helped us out on a day we had a jam and needed our pup walked. She was very professional and attentive to our active dog. We will be using her again”

About: My friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs/puppies trusting me with their furry babies. I can handle hyper to mellow dogs, I am very active but also laid back depending on the mood of your furry baby. I have been taking care of my own baby for 5 years adopted at the shelter, and oh boy I have learned so much from him (his name is Jarvis the muscular pitbull). I have a huge passion for dogs/puppies and will treat them like my own! If you have any questions, feel free to chat with me :) I am a graduate student and currently 8 months pregnant looking for extra income until maternity leave. I do have a part-time job but I will always find a way to hangout with your furry friend knowing the rewarding feeling when being around them. I am usually free Tuesday-Thursday any time of the day :) I have thought to be respectful as well as respectable to their things. I am very honest and responsible with everything I do. Since I still live with my parents, I am open to service your furry baby at your home giving them comfort and care.

About: I love all animals. I don’t mind the challenge of pets that are puppies or seniors or pets with behaviors or medical conditions. I am open to petsitting other animals Fish, hamsters, snakes, goats, donkeys, sugar gliders, lizards, ect. I will spoil them all. I work as a paraeducator. I am contracted to work 8:30-4:00, I have a hour lunch break 11:45-12:45, M-F. (Sept-June) open schedule for June-August :) Due to my primary position I have had many background checks and passed I feed, clean up after, and play/walk/training. Also, water plants,vacuum, & get mail.

About: I will ask clients on their requirements before anything. I have three fur babies of my own, I have also looked after family and friends’ pets, from simple daily visit to babysitting at their homes or my own. They also relied on me to feed, walk or broad while out of town. I have spent time with puppies to senior dogs. I have some experience working with Dogs on treatment or medication, I strictly follow vet or client’s directions when administrating any medication. I am currently in between jobs and I have a good amount of free time. I’m available any time Monday through Friday for daily walks, play dates or check-in. If needing to house sit please message me to discuss details. I have a partial of my yard fenced but I would be outside supervising when playing or potty breaks. Pets are not just animals but family and I would care for your pets as if they were my own!

“Taya provided excellent and fabulous care. She was enthusiastic and was a pleasure to work with. Indy was well taken care of and I know he enjoyed his time with her. I highly recommended her!”

About: I have taken care of animals all my life. I have trained, groomed, bathed, and even helped birth puppies as well. When we’ve friends leave out of town I am always the one to watch them. I am currently working a full time job but I always have Mondays and Tuesdays off. I’m very active and I love helping others with their animals. I have a fenced yard, a doggy pool for the water dogs(mine is) I also have two lovely dogs that love playing with others. And I have a cat but he loves other dogs as long as they don’t chase him. I also help with training, grooming, bathing and if you are an expecting doggy parent I can help with that too

“I had ankle surgery 9 months ago and haven’t healed as quickly as I should have, as much as I’d love to take my dog out for long walks myself I’ve been instructed by my doctors not to for a while. That’s why we’ve had to search for outside resources and I’m glad I did! This was my very first time with a dog walker for my recently-ish adopted dog so I didn’t know what to expect, but it was a great experience. Enrique was awesome from start to finish, honestly couldn’t have gone any better. He was easy to communicate with, helpful, made it simple to book him through the app, prepared, updated me throughout the walk, seamless handoff of my pup back to me. My sweet dog doesn’t always trust people so I was anxious of how she would do being led off by a stranger, but she did good and needed the exercise, tried her out for a great nights sleep. I will definitely be reaching out to Enrique in the future, don’t hesitate on trusting him with your fur babies!”

About: I have four dogs myself. They’re all well trained and friendly with other animals! I live on a large farm with plenty of space for dogs to run. I trained two of my dogs a few tricks each as well as potty trained them I work about four hours a day outside of my home. I always take care of my dogs before and after work. I have family let them out to pee and eat while I’m at work. I spend the evenings playing indoor with them My dogs have a large kennel inside that they sleep in at night. I have hosted dogs before and they sleep in my garage. It’s a warm area year round and if not then they will sleep inside in a separate kennel. I have orchards next to my house so your dogs will be taken on walks throughout them! Two of my dogs spend most of the day outside (depending on the weather).

About: I live on my own with my kitty, Luna! Like any pet lover, I understand each person cares for their animals different but their happiness and your comfort come first and foremost for me! I have experience in administering insulin shots and tricking pups into thinking any feel better medicine is a treat (with the help of those nifty little pill pocket treats haha). Any specific care needs your animal has, I'm willing to learn as well! I'm a stay at home wife so I'm really free to work with YOUR schedule and routine! The closer to their normal schedule, the better! Unfortunately I am unable to care for your pet in my own home at this time. My own Kitty dislikes dogs very much and will get anxious and sick. I am free and happy to come to your home if you are in need of overnight care though!

About: Hi there! I am a dog lover of all kinds! I have two dogs of my own, one weiner/corgi mix and another blue heeler/Idaho shag who I love dearly, they are my world. They also love any dog that they meet and are super playful! Ive had experience caring for animals for a very long time, my priority is to make sure all dogs are loved and happy. I decided to get on this because I wish of all things I can get more dogs but my hubby will not let me lol! So I thought this would be a perfect spot for me to meet new pups and love on them like my own. :) I will have plenty of time to play with the dogs. Also once the weather is cooler I will be able to take your dog on walks or runs with me :) I have a fenced yard and have two other dogs who will keep your pet busy and get the opportunity to play with each other!

“Carly was incredibly helpful!! I needed a last minute walk and she was responsive and on time and took such good care of Ruby. She made my day so much better!”

About: Stay at home dog dad to two dogs already. Our dogs like other dogs more than people. They like us too, just not as much. We recently returned to Yakima and are looking for our forever home. Until then I can do visits and walks. I can't go to the shelter because I'd bring home all the dogs (we have been twice since we been together-two dogs). Husband and I grew up in the country around dogs and livestock and other animals so we know how it works. Moses This is my primary career. Before I moved to Washington State. I provided day care and boarding and plan to do it again. I look forward to helping you care for your fur baby. Until we find out forever home I am available for home visits and walks. Trips to the off-leash park at an hourly rate. I can help you socialize your puppies and get out that extra energy.

“Keyera is amazing with our puppers!!”
