Dog Walking Devon

“First time using Rover and Virginia really put us at ease. She was fantastic with trigger, informative and we really enjoyed the pictures of Trigger while we were away!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for the past fifteen years. More recently, over the last four years, I have gravitated towards adopting dogs that either require more care or are older and unlikely to be given a life they deserve. I can handle high energy dogs, I have a schnauzer that requires a lot of attention. He needs frequent walks and quite a bit of exercise chasing his ball. I can also handle dogs that require special care. One of the dogs I adopted was found by my girlfriend and I in terrible conditions after being hit by a car. His back was broken and he was left on the side of the road. We looked after him, changing diapers, and cleaning his body for months until he was able to walk again using three legs. He even became a very great playmate for my schnauzer. He lived a very happy life before ultimately passing. I would be looking to give plenty of time to your dog(s) making sure they are active and cared for as if they were my own. I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk your dog. Also I make sure when I am outside with dogs that it is their time; they get to enjoy the walk at their own pace. On weekends, I can make time to care for your pets as long as I have a notice of 1-2 days. I have an unfenced yard so therefore your dog will be on a leash at all times when we are outside. There are plenty of very nice walking trails right outside my house. I can also take your dog to the park if that is what they like.

“Robyn was a lifesaver the other night, my partner and I got scheduled together last minute and we didn’t know what to do with our 12 week old pup. Despite it being last minute and our first time with Robyn, she made things so easy and our pooches loved her! Thank you so much for helping us out!”

We've been attached at the hip ever since I got him at 10 years old. At 12.5 years, I take great lengths to keep my best friend as lively and healthy as I can. Although his body isn't what it used to be, his spirit seems to get livelier by the day! I can give all the credit to Ash for teaching me my dog knowledge (and I'm sure he would say the same for his human knowledge lol). While I consider Ash my brother, Dart is definitely my kiddo. I had adopted him mid-2025 so Ash could have more incentive to run around. He was 9.5 years and so so so incredibly anxious. He's just turned 11 this past September and I can say that it's truly been a privilege to not only watch him bloom into the sweet boy he is today, but also to have grow with him. (He's also definitely put a lot of my dog first aid training to use... if you have a pointer/bird dog, you'll know exactly what I mean 🤦‍♂️). 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄: I've worked professionally with dogs since the age of 18! My first long-term job was at a dog-daycare. I absolutely loved it. I'd typically be tasked to handle dogs with special needs, whether that be behavioural or medical. I find that dogs also tend to connect with me but that may be akin to my understanding of dog language and the possible my under-scent reeking of my two dogs haha. If a dog is struggling to warm up to me, I am very patient and become extra attentive to their body language to ensure I always respect their boundaries. On the other end, I have no fears meeting and handling more reactive dogs (within reason. ex, no one should be expecting walks at rush hour with a very aggression-prone dog). I’m best available for walk/drop-ins during weekday mornings before 10:30am and MWF after 2pm. However, if you need care outside of these hours, I am more than happy to see if we can schedule visits that work for both of us! If you need housesitting, I'm typically best available for shorter stays unless it's a long weekend or during an extended school break (ex. reading week). 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, I understand how busy life can get, especially when unexpected hurdles come your way. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you require last-minute or one-time walk/drop-in services. Again, I'd be more than happy to try and work scheduling out. I’m very respectful of others spaces and will be able to recognize and learn the routines of your pup pretty quick! Special instructions are always welcome! I want to replicate their regular routine as much as possible to cause the least amount of stress. :) I take the time to understand each pet’s boundaries and build trust at their pace. I strive to create a safe, comforting environment through soft tones, words, and actions, and most importantly: patience.

About: Hello! A little bit about me - I have had the fortune of being surrounded by puppies and dogs for my entire life. I currently have two very special pups. One is a rescue named Madeline (Flat-coated Retriever) who I have rehabilitated from her highly anxious state to a well rounded and calm dog who never lets anything bother her now but the lack of a ball. She now has arthritis , so I prevent her from playing ball since it is hard on her joints. The other is Daisy - Adopted in 2018 as a pup, (Great Pyrenees/Rough Collie cross) She is a great dog that loves the outdoors! They make a great team. I love helping people! Being able to help out with walking and enjoying quality time with your fur baby will be a win win situation! I highly recommend a meet and greet before booking so you and your pet can get to know me. I provide photo updates so everyone is on the same page.

“Great!!!”

About: I love dogs and grew up with two dogs myself that were rescued dogs. With these two dogs they had trauma and I was able to built personal relationships with them and gain trust. I loved playing with them inside and outside. I would take them to the beach and dog parks. I loved watching these dogs be happy and become confident with themselves; as well as environment. These dogs became my best furry friends and always put a big smile on my face. As a caregiver for your dog I would definitely make sure your pet is safe and loved. Your dog would receive lots of attention, hugs and kisses because I would not be able to contain myself. I find dogs adorable and cute. I would follow your instructions and guidelines to your dog and make sure they are happy in my care. I would send you pictures and texts messages to reassure you that your dog is in good hands.

“Sam was awesome with our puppy, first time leaving our dog and we had an awesome experience.”

About: I am fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available to you and your pet on short notice. Not only is my schedule accommodating, so is my home and my pet education. Over the past 14ys, I have been closely involved with many different animal orientated facilities. My personal pup was certified with The Chimo Project which is now called CAAWLS. This organization recruits and certifies wellness animals for Animal Assisted Intervention (AAI) services. Involvement with this company was both rewarding for my pup and myself. I also volunteer my time with Dogs With Wings (DWW). A non-profit organization that does amazing things. DWW is changing lives for the better by training dogs to be guide dogs, service dogs, autism dogs and more. Rest assured, your pet will be well loved and in good care during their stay with me.

About: I have several years of hands on experience working in animal shelters and veterinary clinics, where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as shy, reactive, and anxious pups who need a little extra patience and understanding. I’m also a dog owner myself, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I work full time at an Animal Shelter currently but I manage my schedule to ensure the pets in my care receive the attention and care they deserve! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible to minimize stress. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any household rules exactly as provided. I understand how important familiarity is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I provide enrichment through walks, playtime, and mental stimulation tailored to your dog’s energy level and personality. I also monitor for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health and will communicate promptly if I notice anything concerning. I can also send updates with pictures if you want!

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life since I was around 4. I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs, giving me lots of experience! I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, I’ve taken care of their daily needs since I was 10 years old. I make sure to have my schedule fit with letting my dogs out and feeding my animals. I am the biggest animal lover, I will spend time with dogs and cats over humans most of the time. I always keep an eye on the animals I’m taking care of, and I will always follow their schedules and needs!

About: An animal lover through and through, I grew up around animals from a very young age; owning my own dogs as well as spending every summer of my youth at my godmothers’ farm rounding up cows, turkeys, chickens and yes, farm dogs and cats too. Professionally I’ve been employed as a groomer and a doggy daycare attendant so im well versed in handling dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. With me as your second in care, I can promise your domesticated babies will be well loved and taken care of! After putting my safety before the needs of a corporation that employed me for four years, I’ve found myself with plenty of free time on my hands. If you need someone to keep your pets company, you should reach out! I’ve always made a point to get out and move my body everyday which helps me be prepared to take your pups along for the journey! Overnight house sitting will always come with lots of attention and outdoor time on my part. Dog needs a more relaxing time? Absolutely not a problem. I harbour a natural balance between active and lazy, having no issue with chillin and watching some tv. You can count on me to pay attention and take action if any type of emergency were to arise. Integrity is as important to me as your pets’ safety is to you!

“Emily was fantastic! She gave me peace of mind when I was travelling that my dogs were taken care of. (With very short notice) Love getting the pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her.”

About: I have taken care of a large assortment of pets. I started dog grooming when I was 16 and did that for 20 years. I also worked at a pet store as a small animal manager. Duties included feeding, cleaning cages, engaging with a wide range of small animals, cats and birds. The department was run efficiently and I trained a small team of employees to aid in all duties. In addition to this, I also managed a grooming salon. I am able to administer medications, including injections. Pets are my sole purpose in life. I don’t have kids and I’m currently living in a no-pet home. I miss having dogs and cats. I currently snuck in a fish tank. I miss my dogs. I have a lot of love to give and your pet will be in competent hands. My daily/weekly routine is spent loving and caring for animals. It’s not just a job, I live for it. It’s my life. I cannot have pets in my own home but I do offer pet sitting in your own home. Your pet will be comfortable in their own home as I maintain any rituals or schedules as determined by the pet’s owner. I also offer dog walking and drop in visits. I’m very thorough and will offer a great experience for your pet.

“Zenna has been great with Hank! It is clear she has experience dealing with dogs and using positive reinforcement for improving leash skills. Hank loves spending time with Zenna and always looks forward to seeing her!”

A big yard and a calming environment. Can crate as per request!

“Cari was fantastic with my dog. She was to knowledgeable and patient with him. She was punctual and reliable; stopped in once a day for five days straight to give him companionship and exercise. 12/10 would recommend.”
