Dog Walkers in Centerdale, IA

About: I grew up with a Shiba Inu, that I absolutely loved. My family has always had dogs. Currently I travel for work throughout the year, so I cannot have my own but this allows me to be connected and give animals the attention they need while giving me time with dogs that I miss. I work full-time remotely 8am - 5pm, unless I am booked and busy with traveling for work. I am happy to walk dogs in the area during my work day and let them outside and give them a walk! I will be as available as my job allows. I work from home so I am flexible to adjust my schedule to the pets needs. It’s always nice to have an animal to also give me a welcome break away from my desk or keep me company! I have a great yard that backs up to a park making it easy to exercise dogs. I have a ranch style home so no stairs for senior animals and plenty of space to be comfortable. I always make sure to listen to your scheduling and follow your directive for care.

“Matt has been a blessing & has eased our fears of leaving our girl for the day. Matt sent a photo update & stayed in communication with us on a trial run. I know my girl is in good hands with Matt & feel so much better about my day away.”

About: I have dog sat for everyone I know. I am the first person someone asks to dog sit. I provide lots of care, attention, and play for dogs.

“Auden has given walks to our dog, Mochi, over the last six months. She was a lifesaver after I had a baby in January and it was harder for me to have the time to walk Mochi, especially in the cold weather. Mochi especially loved going on walks in Hickory Hill Park with her. Thank you, Auden!”

About: Hi! My name is Madison, and I’m an experienced and dependable pet lover with a lifelong passion for caring for animals. I currently have one cat of my own, but I grew up with both big and small dogs, as well as indoor and outdoor cats—so I’m very comfortable around pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. While I now work as a server and bartender, I’ve always made time for animals. During college, I volunteered regularly at the local animal shelter, where I walked a wide variety of dogs. That experience taught me a lot about leash and harness handling, and gave me the skills to confidently care for dogs with different energy levels and personalities. Whether you’re looking for someone to walk your pup, check in on your cat, or just give your pets some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help. I treat every animal like my own and take pride in providing safe, attentive, and reliable care. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! Currently I work part time, which does give me more time to help out with your babies! My only “guaranteed” times off are Tuesday afternoons and Sundays, which is when I could be available for recurring bookings. Otherwise, I get my schedule for the next week on Friday afternoons, which means I can book one-times about a week out. Every pet in my care is treated like family - with kindness, attention, and genuine love. Whether I’m on a walk or watching them at home, I follow their routines closely and make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood. I’m big on cuddles, playtime, and keeping their environment clean and calm. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and needs, always making sure they’re comfortable and cared for like they’re my own.

About: I'm a 9th-year teacher and mom to a sweet 5-year-old daughter who’s never met an animal she didn’t instantly adore. For the past 10 years, I’ve fostered dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens—so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m home all summer and love spending my time running, walking, exploring parks, and being outside—especially when animals are involved! Whether it’s a midday walk, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets feel right at home. My goal is to give them the same level of love and care that I give to my own furry family members. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your pets while you're away or at work! I am currently home for the summer so my daughter and I enjoy spending time taking dogs for walks, playing at the park, or just hanging out inside on days that are too hot or rainy. I have a large yard behind my house to run and play. I have fostered animals for years so I am experienced in kenneling animals, if preferred or I have lots of space to run around inside as well.

About: I've been around and cared for dogs on and off since I was a young child. Currently, I volunteer regularly with the Iowa City Animal Care and Adoption center and have gone through their training classes on dog behavior and providing appropriate stimulation and play. I've cleaned kennels and walked dogs as small as a Yorkie and as big as a Great Dane with a variety of quirks and behaviors. I love throwing a ball or just sitting and scratching some soft ears; whatever your pupper needs. I work a full-time, remote job that allows me flexibly to work from anywhere and the passion to shower your pet with the love they need and deserve. I work full-time fully remote during the day. I am able to do in-home, overnight, or drop in care with lots of flexibility. If you're close enough, I can drop in over breaks or lunch if necessary. I'll follow all house rules regarding your pet: on or off furniture, outdoor or indoor time, treats, feeding, and walkies. I can drop in multiple times a day, or work from your home to provide all day care/attention

About: Though I may be just an 18 year old college student, I have over 500 hours of experience working as a youth volunteer at the Oregon Humane Society. I trained new volunteers in safe handling of dogs, dog body language, and positive reinforcement training. I also taught the grooming class (though I am in no way a professional, shelter baths are much simpler than what most dogs actually need. In working at the humane society, I got comfortable with all types of dogs: big or small, outgoing or timid, high-energy or mellow. I know lots of enrichment activities as well that can stimulate a dog’s brain to keep them from getting bored. I also just love animals with my whole heart, and the more time I spend with dogs, the happier I am.

About: I've had pets my entire life. From cats,dogs,fish,turtles,hedgehog,snakes, birds you name it I've probably owned it or have taken care of it! At one time we had 16 different animals in our home and the neighbors and their kids would come over to hold them,play with them and learn about them! I love animals more than I probably like humans lol! I have a keen intuition with them and feel like I can feel what they are feeling a lot of the time. Animals are easily attracted to me and they warm up to me real quickly. I have done pet sitting in the past and have always got compliments on how well I take care of animals. I go above and beyond to make sure animals are safe and loved! I have my own business so fitting your schedule into mine will be very easy. I interact with humans a lot on a daily basis and want to get back into caring for animals so I'm very flexible with my schedule Daily walks, daily play, feeding 2-3times a day. Lots of kisses and petting and a lot of talking to them as well. Take them to the vet regularly and give medication when prescribed. Make sure their environment is safe to play in and roam around in. I'm open to all needs of pets.

About: I am home full time during the summer on a huge farm. I am an animal lover. I have a dog and two cats myself. I really enjoy being active and running with my dog daily. I know dogs are happiest when they are interacting. I enjoy what makes a dog a dog, quirks and all. I can't watch A Dog's Purpose because I know I will cry, but the message of the story is so true. A dog just loves to see you happy and in return I love to see happy dogs. I take my dog to doggy day care a few times a week when I am teaching because I know he is being active and having fun and knowing he is happy is all I can ask for.
