Dog Walking Byron Center

“Maryam came out and met Chase and I prior to her first walk with him! She was really wonderful with him and was familiar with our community so very helpful! She allowed time for Chase to sniff her and get comfortable with her while we talked. I appreciate her calm but confident presence! There first walk went great!”

About: I first began my pet care experience with my own family dog, who was with us for 16.5 years. Having a dog of my own for that long, not only did I learn about the ins and outs of a high energy puppy to senior care, but also the true, unconditional love that dogs teach us, and how they are truly a member of our families. My dogsitting journey began not long after his passing, and I have loved being able to give my client’s dogs the same love and care that I gave my dog. I have cared for all kinds of different sizes, medical needs, ages, and personalities. I would love to care for your pup next!❤️ I have a full time job that allows me to work from home 75% of the time. At most, I am gone 4 hours in the day if I am at a meeting or running errands. As a previous a dog owner, I understand that pets aren't just a fun thing to have around the house for a little while. They are truly a part of your family. I want to provide the care and love to your dog as I would my own, and understand the responsibility and commitment that entails.

About: II’ve been pet sitting for my sister for the past two years, including full week stays while her family travels. During that time, I’ve cared for her two cats – feeding, grooming, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them plenty of love and playtime. Cats are easygoing, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I also have my own dog and cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels. I take my dog on regular walks and love bringing her to the park. Sometimes my cat even joins the adventure! My goal is simple: keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for. I work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday 3–6 pm. Outside those hours I’m available for walks, play, feeding, and maintaining your pet’s schedule; I’ll update you if anything changes. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home whether I’m caring for them in my space or in theirs. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle time—so they feel relaxed and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, since every pet is different. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and always make sure doors, gates, and supplies are secure. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with respect and make sure everything stays neat while giving their pets plenty of love and attention. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy, safe, and having fun.

About: I’m a dedicated animal lover offering reliable dog walking and drop-in visit services across the area. Having grown up with dogs and currently having my own sweet cat, I understand that pets are cherished family members who thrive on consistent routines, patience, and good care. Why Choose Me: • Daily Photos: Every visit includes a detailed Rover Card with photos and notes so you know exactly how your pet's visit went. • Home & Property Respect: Tidy feeding areas, secure locking, and bringing in mail/packages upon request. • Flexible & Patient: Comfortable with both active and shy pets who need to set their own pace. ​I’d love to help keep your pets happy and well-exercised! Send a message anytime! I work a full time job outside of Rover with a rotating schedule, primarily on morning shifts. I also have an hour long lunch break each day. I am more than happy to do drop in visits or walks during my lunch break, as well as before or after my shifts, to ensure your pet is fully taken care of! I have tons of experience walking, playing, and taking care of animals throughout my life. Each animal has its own soul and personality, just like us humans. I am welcoming to all animals needs and behavior levels. However I can help, I am willing to do so. I look forward to learning more about your pet and creating an overall good experience. :)

About: I have taken care of horse for half of my life so I know the hard work that goes into animals but I still love them no matter what. I start work around 8 am and finish at 4 pm every Monday through Friday so I could drop in before or after work and my weekends are typically open for anything. For a drop in, I will see how the pets are doing, if they are acting normal or not, and then I will look around the house to see if they did anything. I will feed them and give them water. I’ll sit with them so they will eat and then I will play with them outside so they can be active and do their business.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, including caring for my own two dogs. I also previously cared for an elderly dog who required regular injections, which gave me experience giving medication and providing attentive care for a senior pet. Additionally, I have experience dog sitting for others and understand the importance of maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while ensuring each pet’s individual needs are met! I am available in the mornings and throughout the day until 4:30 PM. I am flexible with my schedule during these hours and am happy to discuss specific scheduling needs. At home, I provide my pets with consistent care, including feeding, fresh water, exercise, attention, and maintaining a safe and clean environment. When caring for clients’ pets, I follow their specific instructions and routines closely, while making sure their pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I am patient, attentive, and responsible when providing care.

“Meghan is a fantastic sitter/walker. Our pit mix Ludo loves her. Shes always been great with him and she’s very communicative. I would highly recommend her for your pups.”

“Sarah has watched my dog Huggy a couple times now. She is very thoughtful and takes excellent care of him. She also sends some very entertaining photos of him too, which is always appreciated when I'm away from him. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I grew up helping my great-grandma on her farm with training Border Collies, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, communication, and building trust with dogs. I’ve also trained my own service dog and currently share my home with three dogs, including a puppy. In addition to my dogs, I care for a special-needs cat, two rabbits, 15 rats, and a betta fish. Caring for animals with different personalities, ages, and needs has taught me to be attentive, adaptable, and respectful of each animal as an individual. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a slower-paced stroll, extra patience, or simply some companionship, I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, and I’ll treat your furry family member with the same care and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet! I currently work Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, so my weekday availability is primarily before or after work, depending on the service and location. I have full availability on weekends and can be flexible with scheduling. I’m currently taking on extra work to help save for my dog’s upcoming surgery, so I’m excited to provide dependable, caring service while working toward an important goal for my family. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs, including training my own service dog and raising a puppy. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routines, triggers, boundaries, and individual needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, medications, access to your home, and any special care your pet requires. I’m also comfortable caring for animals with different needs, thanks to my experience with my own dogs, a special-needs cat, rabbits, rats, and fish. I believe good communication is an important part of pet care. I’ll keep you informed about how your pet is doing and will reach out promptly if I notice anything unusual or have concerns.

About: I may be new to Rover, but I am not new to caring for others. I am a lifelong dog owner and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and providing a safe, loving environment. I am also a parent and work in childcare, which has given me extensive experience with responsibility, patience, and following specific instructions. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, recognizing needs, and providing attentive care. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a loved one. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own family, and I’m happy to follow any instructions to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, especially long-term and weekend care. I’m available Thursday nights through Sundays, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care without rushing or overbooking. As a dog mom, I understand the importance of routines, exercise, feeding schedules, and recognizing pets’ needs. I’m used to planning my days around caregiving and making sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a large yard for supervised outdoor time. Since it’s not fenced, dogs are always closely monitored and leashed as needed. I have a friendly dog who enjoys company, and two children who love animals and are taught to be gentle and respectful. Pets are never left unattended. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority.

About: Hi! 🐾 I’m Amina — a lifelong dog lover and very proud dog mom :) I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been dog sitting for friends, family, and people I know since I was 16. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing nonstop, lounging on the couch, or getting ALL the cuddles, I’m happy to match their personality and routine. I also have a 2-year-old Shih Tzu-Bichon named Jack who is super friendly, playful, and always excited to make a new furry friend! He loves having a buddy around just as much as I do. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be nerve-racking, so my goal is to make both you AND your pup feel completely comfortable. Expect lots of love, attention, playtime, and plenty of photo updates while you’re away! 📸 Your pup won’t just be “watched” — they’ll be treated like part of the family! 🐾 I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to caring for your pets! My schedule is very open, which means I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, playtime, and lots of extra attention throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get all the love and care they’re used to while you’re away. I live in a townhome-style condo with my super friendly 2-year-old Shih Tzu-Bichon, Jack! While I don’t have a private fenced yard, there is plenty of grassy yard space around my home for potty breaks and outdoor time, plus a dog park within walking distance for pups who enjoy it. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, crate time, medications, or any special instructions. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home.

About: We have plenty of property for animals to run and play! And a large home that is welcoming to humans and animals! We have a dog, 2 cats, 2 bunnies and chickens! I only work a couple of hours each week so I have plenty of time and energy to play with your pet! We have a dog that also loves having friends come over! We treat our dog, cats and bunnies as members of the family and will treat your pets the same! We look forward to caring for your pets!

“Matthew was wondering bff with our 4mth old puppy! Timely and reliable as well :)”

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !

About: I’ve always loved dogs and make sure to give them the best care possible. I want to take care of them as if they were my own. During the week, I work full-time and don’t have a lunch break, but I’m typically available after 4:15–4:30 PM, and I’m off at 3:00 PM on Fridays. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a little extra company, I’m happy to help however I can. I make sure to always take dogs on walks, and give them extra care. I’m more than happy to sit outside with them (weather pending) and play or just hangout together.
