Dog Walkers in Charlestown, IN

About: I am an online college student and am able to direct 100% of my attention to the care of your fur babies. I am available at your convenience; I work around your needs and plans so that you can cross worrying about details and conflicts off of your busy schedule. I've taken care of all sorts of pets my entire life - puppies, kittens, elderly, disabled, as well as different temperaments, energy levels, and breeds from Terriers and Mallinois to Pitbulls and Chihuahuas. I may be young, but rest assured I have lifelong experience with animals. I grew up on a farm with horses, chickens, goats, and more, and of course cats and dogs. My family has had several German Shepards specifically, so consider me prepared for your dog no matter how smart or energetic they are. As for cats, I know that they are often overlooked in favor of dog clients; this will never be the case for me. Rather than being a dog expert who figures I can care for cats because they're "easy", I consider myself a cat expert as well. I recognize they are just as complex as dogs and their care and behavior needs are vastly different, and will be able to care for them as such. In all, no matter what your furry family looks like, know that I will come prepared and ready to care for them to the absolute best of my ability. This is hardly a job for me; it's a passion. I have open availability and plenty of time to take care of and play with your babies! I'm very flexible and can provide nearly 24/7 attention to your pets for boarding or house sitting or provide drop ins and walks at any time! I always work around your schedule and your pet's needs, not the other way around. I am prepared for a wide array of situations, and will come ready for anything. I pride myself on my perceptiveness and attention to detail, so rest assured I will be handling any potential issues before they even arise. As I have a very open schedule, my response time is very prompt and any questions you have or updates you request will be prompt and thorough!

“Chelsea would make an amazing dog sitter. She is reliable and responsible and, above all, loves animals. I would highly recommend hiring her as a dog walker/sitter!”

“Bonnie was great! She sent me lots of adorable pictures and made sure my fur baby had a good walk!”

“Jt has provided care to our sweet little fur baby many times, JT took great care of our sweet fur baby. He made sure our little dog received his medication timely and walked him several times. Not only did he arrive promptly, he took time to visit and provide undivided attention. He made sure home was kept tidy and intact upon departure. I highly recommend JT Gardner for all your pet needs. Our little furbaby looked forward to his daily visit.”

“Dependable, great with big dogs, and flexible!”

“Ruth has been caring for my schnauzer every time I vacation or need her to for three years, she has been amazing, Rufus has anxiety and doesn't like being alone and she creates a safe environment for him. They go on so many walks and her fur babies are just about the sweetest thing ever. She's highly detail-oriented so she's quick to check one very need your doggy might need and create a real home away from home!”

About: I have had my own cats for 12 years. I had a dog for 12 years as well. I currently volunteer for a cat rescue out of Louisville, since April 2021. I love cats and dogs. I make my own schedule with my job so I will be available to take care of your pets needs throughout the day and evening time. I have a large backyard available for play. I have cats if your pet enjoys company, if not they have an entire room to themselves. I have 3 extra large crates available for use if your pet needs/prefers crate time. Since I do my own schedule, I only need about an hours notice to be available. This allows me to keep your pet care routine the same as it would be at home. I follow special pet instructions left by pet parents to create a unique experience for each pet and pet parent. This allows for a less stressful experience for the pet and allows me to provide the best care possible.

About: I have loved dogs all my life. I was 5 when I started begging my parents for a dog, and I waited over a decade to get my first dog. Now I have 3 lovely cats and while our home is dogless, the love has never died. Entrusting someone with your fur baby can be hard, but you can rest assured that I will love your dog just as much as you do. I haven't had the chance to spend a lot of time with dogs in my life, but I am eager to learn about your dog - their breed, their favorite treat, their habits (good and bad). You will find me an attentive, engaged dog walker with energy to spare. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out and I will answer as best I can. I am a full time student on summer break. I deliver food through doordash in my spare time and am looking for a more cost-effective way to make money while doing something I enjoy. During summer break, my schedule is mostly open all week, and I intend to spend much of that time walking dogs. Once summer break is over, my schedule may shift but any repeat clients will be notified months in advance. I fully intend to continue dog walking through school with any current clients. As of right now, I am only offering dog walking services. I am a cat owner and our cats tend to be stranger shy, so having dogs in and out of the house would be too upsetting for them. However, I may be willing to negotiate pet sitting in my client's home for repeat clients. I want to get to know you and your dog first before offering more intensive care.

“Courtney is a compassionate and devoted animal lover; through the years of knowing her she has shown her passion for animals by being a wonderful fur-mom to her own as well as fostering multiple different animals that were in need of help. Her career choice as a vet tech and the schooling she has gives her the knowledge to properly care for and handle your dogs. I would trust her to walk or pet sit my dog any time.”
