Dog Walking Cicero

“Candy was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She was incredibly punctual and brave enough to come out even in the bitter cold, which we really appreciated. I was especially impressed by how she connected with our new rescue; she was empathetic, patient, and really understood what our pup needed. We will definitely be asking for her time again in the future. Overall, a great experience!”

About: I enjoy caring for animals and have experience with cats of all ages, kitten to senior. I've had cats my whole life and have experience with bottle feeding, medication administration and diabetic care. I also have experience with dog sitting and walking. I've been volunteering with a local rescue since 2019 and I'm passionate about helping animals find the perfect home and live happy lives. I'm currently working part - time so I have lots of availability during the week for morning, afternoon or evening hours and I'm available every other weekend. Please let me know at least 1-2 days in advance of your needs. I'm able to cat sit at my home or yours! Dog sitting, I can come to your home as often as needed for bathroom breaks, walks and play.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, and with my current flexible, remote job, I am able to work and have time for my passion of watching animals as well! Currently, I have a cattle dog I rescued from Helping Hounds as well as a rough Collie (think Lassie with the long hair!) and a couple cats. I also have a few horses that are boarded off property. I have been caring for animals since my childhood and am well versed in pet and human safety. I even have experience with injectable medicines/insulin for cats and dogs. I work from home and am available 24/7 for care of the animals. Potty breaks are whenever needed and we can provide lots of playtime and fun during the day and at night! I have a fenced in backyard and a pet-proofed two story home for pets to play with. We have a great neighborhood so we often take long walks with the dogs. Please let me know if you have any questions! I currently work from home and have a very flexible position, so I’m available 24/7 for your dog or cat! Potty breaks and exercise are available whenever needed. Because of this flexibility, I can stick to your schedule as much as possible, keeping your pet happy and healthy! I have a fenced in backyard and live in a safe and friendly neighborhood. We go for walks twice daily and enjoy playing outside for exercise. I live right off route 81, which is convenient for drop off/pick up. I can also drop off or pick up your pet for an additional fee!

“Tiera was great with my 5 month old gsp puppy. She has a lot of energy but she wrangled her well. This was my first time leaving her alone or hiring a dog walker so I was a little nervous but Tiera was awesome and I appreciated the updates and photos of her walks. I’ll definitely book her again in the future!”

About: I have extensive training with large, and even “aggressive” breeds. I currently have two Rottweilers, who are big bears. I have taken care of small (chihuahuas) to large (St. Bernard’s) dogs, animals aren’t just pets, but respectively people’s children. I have a long background in farm care, dog boarding care, medication administering, training. And I really just appreciate the presence of animals. I love training puppies, and respect the boundaries of adult dogs. It’s not a job, its a hobby. I do work from home, but I can make anything work as necessary. I work criminal investigations, and can take breaks and time when needed. I prefer to care for pets in their own home. Most pets get anxious when their “person” is not with them. And I believe that is usually best.

“Taylor has been walking the dogs for the past couple days now and they really seem to enjoy it! When she came for the meet and greet they both absolutely loved her! She probably got more dog kisses then she wanted! I highly recommend Taylor!”

About: I have a degree in animal behavior that has prepared me to properly care for animals, among other skills. I have also owned dogs my entire life, including training one of my current dogs. I have volunteered at a dog rescue for about 6 years. I now work at an animal rescue that has me trained to give medications. I have also owned a senior cat for 4 years which has me comfortable cleaning litter boxes and administering medications. I currently have two part time jobs, and typically have 2 or 3 days completely available. On days I work I am available most evenings and occasionally mornings. I am unable to board animals at my house because of my other pets. However, I am able to commute to client's places. I am comfortable crating when I am not there if it is requested.

About: I'm an enthusiastic dog walker and sitter that has a passion for dogs and rescuing them. I have been involved in dog rescue and fostering in the Syracuse area for a number of years. I've cared for a number of my own dogs and cats from young to seniors. I've also been a foster parent to a number of dogs when rescues needed someone. I can handle the most challenging of dogs down to little babies and everything in between. Your dog will get plenty of love and attention when I'm around! I give all dogs the same love and affection I would give my own dog and see the importance of cuddle and buddy time along with good exercise. I show confidence when I'm with a dog so that they know there is trust with me from the beginning. I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I am always available after 3:00 p.m. during the week, before 8:00 a.m. or anytime on the weekends. I've got a very pet friendly home. I live in a single story, ranch house that has a fully fenced back yard. I do not have children at home that we would need to worry about and I'm very respectful if needed to go into a client's home. Safety and security are always at the forefront.

In my home, I have a gated upstairs area that offers a peaceful retreat if your pets ever feel overwhelmed, ensuring they have a quiet space to relax. Additionally,I provide a cozy crate with luxury bedding for those who prefer a snug hideaway. Regular updates and pictures throughout the day keep you connected, offering peace of mind that your furry friends are not just cared for but also cherished. My commitment to personalized care ensures a tailored experience that meets the individual needs of each precious pet in our care. I also provide homemade dog treats and plenty of belly rubs!!

“Adriana was an incredible help with our nervous dog who can be a bit ~weird~ with strangers; she had our boy snuggling on the couch with her in just one weekend. She gives great updates and calmed every worry we had this weekend.”

By day, I work part time at the front desk of a local dog shelter, which keeps me highly organized, safety-conscious, and comfortable with all kinds of breeds. My shifts are in the afternoon. This flexibility means I can easily accommodate early mornings, evenings, or weekend care depending on the week—just shoot me a message and we can always find a time that works! I work part time mid day so I will have plenty of time in the mornings or evenings to provide care for your dog to fit your schedule and needs. I typically spend more time with a dog than the typical owner. I love dogs immensely and give them my full attention when house sitting.

My service will include feeding, providing water, walks around my safe neighborhood, and giving them lots of affection!

“This dog walk was part of a weekend stay. Alyssa was wonderful! She took great care of my dog, Nico, while I was away. She was kind and gentle with Nico. She was always available and communicated with me timely. I’m so grateful for her help. Highly recommended!”

“Lory was amazing. We have only had Clover for a week and were pretty hesitant about having a stranger come to our house and take care of our new puppy. She was nothing but compassionate and professional. We met before the service so we could all meet and get comfortable. We will definitely be seeing more of her and would recommend her.”

About: Growing up my family owned a dog as well as a cat, and I helped tend to the care of both animals in the home. I believe that having this responsibility engraved in me from a young age has helped shape me to be a solid pet care taker now. I was able to experience first hand the changes in a pets life as they age, both behaviorally and physically. I also have taken care of friends and family’s pets in their homes while they are away, most owning multiple types of pets from dogs, cats, and even bearded dragons. I currently work a full-time job at a bakery. My shifts/days off would be: Tuesday-Friday 4am-2pm Saturday-Sunday open availability For any overnight sitting needs, I will probably do best with an owner looking for a weekend sitter as my 10hr shifts can be a long time away from the home. On the other hand, for any drop in visits or walks I am free after I get out of work at 2pm to assist in any late afternoon care! As well as my open availability on the weekends I can not unfortunately offer to care for pets in my own home, as it is unfenced and has a cat residing that does best as a single pet. This is something I can recognize, so it is best that I come to the clients home. A pet communicates with people in so many ways, and the best way to create a safe environment for both you and the pet is to understand those behaviors. I have a good understanding of reading an animal and when boundaries are being set, whether they are done with play time and need space, or need some extra attention. Any pet care details left by the owner, I follow very closely to give the pet the closest experience they can get to a typical day in the home with the owner.

About: Hey there! My name is Krissy. I'm an experienced dog sitter, and I look forward to welcoming and making your pet feel at home. I'm the go-to sitter for extended family and friends. I have experience with senior dogs and offer a safe and calm environment. My schedule is flexible as I work part time at a school with summers off. I will make time for meet and greets to discuss all of your pet's likes and needs. I currently do not have a pet so your pet will receive my undivided attention and care. I cannot wait to meet your dog and provide a peaceful and loving environment.
