Dog Walkers in Carter Lake, IA

“It was a hot ? first week, but our dog had a fun time with Nichole! He definitely enjoyed the company and being out of his crate for a while. We are looking forward to continuing daily walks! ?”

“So glad I found Brooks! He has experience with Boxers and knows what they can be like as young adolescents. Emma adored him, and he became her best friend immediately. Brooks was prompt and on time and the communication was outstanding!”

“Zoey was early (yay!) and JoJo loved her!”

About: I grew up with a dog, who became my biggest inspiration for working with animals for a living. Currently, I have 3 cats and work as a kennel attendant in my college town. I have worked with many disabled animals, helping them go outside or get comfortable. I have also worked with very young animals who need a little extra patience sometimes. I always pay attention to the animal's individual needs and do my absolute best to accommodate for them. In the past I interned with a groomer who taught me many behavioral signs of dogs and tricks to make them more comfortable if need be. I have also done a lot of research of my own for the behaviors of cats in order to understand my own. I'm currently home for the summer from college and am needing a job that's flexible, but also something that I still love. Since I'm home I will have all the time for all the pets' needs. When I care for an animal I start by giving them lovings, if they are willing to be pet. I will then pick up after them, walk them or scoop their litter, feed them, and of course before I can leave, play with them. Most of all before I do anything else, I double and triple check to see their instructions. Especially if they have any special instructions, I will switch my routine accordingly.

“I really appreciate Roger's conscientiousness for my instructions! It was a wicked cold day for a first walk, but he persisted, providing just the walk my dogs needed.”

“Our little Berner, Barley is quite timid when meeting new people, but Jack and Kate have been nothing but patient with her! Even when she had an accident in our apartment with the first walk, they made sure to clean everything up before we got home; and all they had on their mind was how they could help support Barley better with the new transition! I can only imagine how difficult it was for them with the first few walks, but in no time our girl has grown to trust them! Jack and Kate write great updates after the walks and have gotten some of THE BEST pictures of our Berner that we have added to our electronic picture frame! We feel so comfortable knowing they are the ones taking care of our girl when we're away at work. We highly recommend their services and will be using them for as long as we can! Booking with Jack and Kate means patience and love for your dog while you're away.”

“Thank you so much for the updates! I truly appreciate your help and care for echo! We will look forward to booking with you again if we are ever back in Omaha!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and lizards for friends, neighbors and family since I was 9. I was also the student therapy dog handler at Creighton University for Cocoa! I love animals and I am excited to be able to take care of them especially since I’m missing my own dog! I helped train my dog who is a German Puddle Pointer from a young age to help him with hunting in the field. I am currently working for Creighton university as an independent researcher on a research grant! I am in the field of cognitive psychology and hoping to become a therapist one day! One of the things that this has included for me is being a therapy dog handler on campus, so I love working with animals. I will have meetings for my summer research grant every Tuesday and some meetings in between that are still TBD. I live in Minnesota and I am here as a student so I may go home a weekend or two this summer! I have always taken care of my own dog at home and many family and neighbor dogs as well. I will be diligent with instructions and the personal background of each pet to give them individualized care. I have been a babysitter, I have worked at a children’s behavioral clinic as well as a childcare center so I am well versed in safety care and I have a background in training for taking care of the ones that mean most to us. Training certifications like that for CPR as well as daycare will translate in the way that I am always prepared and I am able to always stay alert when providing care to furry friends!

“Mark is great. When Ollie gets back he’s totally wiped out and content. Mark shows up when he’s schedule for and very reliable”

“Breanna proved to be flexible with my instructions and is a genuine pup lover. My dog was super happy upon her arrival and even more happy after they went for a walk! Breanna even refilled the water bowl knowing I wouldn’t be home for a few more hours. Thanks for taking care of the Miabear Breanna!”

“Erica took such good care of Barney that I think he hardly knew I had left for two days! I will absolutely book Erika again in the future, and I highly recommend that you do the same. This was the first time I’ve left Barney alone in the house for more than a few hours. I was pretty nervous about him freaking out with nobody home. I didn’t need to be. :)”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 10+ years, from cats to giant dogs. I have two dogs of my own, and have had cats in the past, so I understand the individual needs of each animal. Senior dogs have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working part time, 3 days a week! My schedule changes week to week, but I am open and flexible to changing my schedule! I can easily crate or move your dogs if I need to! I am eager to earn their trust and am willing to bribe them with treats. I understand each pet has different needs and I am adaptable to them!

“Rose was available to book last-minute and I’m so happy I did. The night before she was to walk and feed my dogs, she FaceTimed to discuss their needs and get to know the process and their feeding instructions. She cared for my dogs like they were her own and I’m so thankful for that. I’d recommend Rose to anyone I know looking for pet care while out of town!”

About: Before I could speak my first standard language, I would speak with animals. This led me to care for neighbors', friends', family's, fosters and stray animals beginning in elementary school. Every shape, size, breed. I find peace & ability to converse with all, threading genuine connection with any and all animals. I currently make my own schedule, and always seek to spend time with a friend or family's animals. A key thing to note is that my fiancé & I share a vehicle, so we are a package deal. She is also an (inactive) Rover provider and can share her info upon request. I am very physically active and enjoy a pup to run / hike with as well. I travel throughout the metro area for business and meetings as well, so I am willing to go anywhere to be a blessing. Transparency and communication is key, always reaching out to the client to ensure I am following proper procedures. I provide the service of package / mail collection, taking the trash out on trash day, pup-poo yard clean up, and as a skilled trade handyman - can provide assistance / service upon discussion. I strive to leave your home as clean or better than when I arrived.

“I’ve hired Victoria a handful of time over the last couple months for dog walking, and she’s been great! She’s extremely flexible to my changing, military schedule, and always gives Nala extra love. She is very communicative and I look forward to the photos she sends me! Will continue to book with Victoria!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I take them for walks give them a bath I’ll teach them new commands and my favorite of all is cuddling on the couch watching a movie. I currently work full time Monday to Friday. I do work from home. Some days I do go in office. I am off weekends. My schedule is pretty flexible. I have two children. They love dog's and get along with them great. Dog's will not be left alone for more than 3-4 hours at a time. My pick up and drop off hours are between 7am-8pm, if drop off or pick up times need to be before or after these times I ask that you please send the request for the day before/after. We look forward to becoming a part of your dog's family. Our community is amazing there are plenty of dogs in our community that are extremely playful. We have a park about 3 blocks away. The park also has a walking trail. I take dogs for walks over there and we throw the ball quite often.

About: I have years of experience with animals and taking care of animals. I visited my grandmas farm every summer and took care of all her animals. I grew up around animals and I genuinely love to give them the best care. I’m 28 and responsible. Currently a full time student at the university looking for a part time job. My schedule is flexible and I will available weekends. I probably won’t be able to have your pet in my apartment, but I’m more than willing to accommodate to your requests and even spend the nights with your lovely pets.

About: I've had the most honorable pleasure of being part of my own late fur babies lives for 17 and 14 years. Caring for and loving them has taken me on many lifelong learning adventures. In order to make a difference for the loves of our lives I have decided to offer my heart to pet care. If given the chance, I can only hope to show your pets love like their own, trust, snuggles, fun, and more...everything they've ever dreamed of. Thank you. Due to being a stay at home homemaker it seems I have plenty of time to devote to loving and caring for your loves as if they were my own. I'm available and open to accommodate many different schedules. As of now I am available to care for your loved ones in their own setting where they're most comfortable. Your home is where I'm able to love and care for your furbabies. There are also many possibilities for walking, and I also offer vet visit care. That's as in being your pets' veterinary appointment partner.
