Dog Walking Claridon

About: Since I was 11 years old putting dog walking flyers on my neighbors porches, I have always had a passion for taking care of animals. I still have people contacting me to cat or dog sit for them, and they love to recommend me to their friends. I love animals, and I know how to handle them safely and responsibly. From working with horses to dolphins, I have been around many different animals. I have owned reptiles and guinea pigs as well as dogs and cats, I have been working with and riding horses since 2018, and every summer since around 2020 I have gone to the Florida Keys and learned about training dolphins, I have aged out of that program now. I also volunteered at an animal shelter when I was younger. I am looking for a job to use my skills with animals. I work at a veterinary practice for a large animal veterinarian currently on Wednesdays and Fridays. I am looking for another job that I can work on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. I can also do weekends if you are looking for someone who will stop by and take care of your animal for 30 minutes to an hour, but I like to have time on my weekends to spend with my loved ones, so the activities that take longer I would like the save for weekdays. I promise to love and take care of your animal as if it is my own until their favorite person comes back! I have my own reliable transportation, I can take your dog to a dog park if it is dog friendly, or I have a lot of land at my house. I also could take it to any walking paths. I know how to handle animals of all temperaments, and I am a good communicator and will keep you updated. I would love the opportunity to take care of your animal! I work at a veterinary practice part time on Wednesdays and Fridays and I generally start early in the morning around 7, and it’s a 40 minute drive. My hours can vary but I’m usually done sometime before 4pm. I can do drop by visits on those days early in the morning and after 5pm. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I can do dog walking, dog sitting, or doggy day care at my house! Anything that generally takes a decent amount of time I can do on those days. On the weekends, I can do house visits for 30 minutes to an hour, but I would like to keep my weekends open as much as possible to spend time with friends and family and go to the barn. I have my own cat as well as 4 other cats, an english bulldog, and a french bulldog owned by my boyfriend’s family that I live with. I generally feed and take care of my cats and the other cats, but I used to pet sit for them and took care of their dogs as well. As far as caring for animals in my own home, I live on 8 acres of land, some of which is a field blocked off by tree line that would be a perfect place to play. I also have a fenced in concrete and grass area for the dogs to use the restroom. I have crates in my house where I can separate dogs if needed. I also know of lots of places to walk dogs, and live by a couple of dog parks. As for care in a clients home, I have lots of experience. I can do litter boxes, feed and water animals, and give enrichment and treats if requested by the owner. I can also let dogs outside on leash, or in a fenced in backyard. I’d rather be safe than sorry, so I avoid taking a dog off leash if they do not have a fenced in or secluded area. I can take them on walks around your neighborhood as well. I am also willing to take care of exotic animals or livestock, as I have plenty of background in that as well.

About: I currently have a 4 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks. I am a teacher so I am available all of June-August to provide all day care for dogs or just walk dogs during the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of affection. I follow each dog’s routine and make sure they feel happy and relaxed while they’re away from home.

About: I've been around animals since I was very young and love all of them. They are part of my family and will be treated as such while they're with me. I enjoy going on walks and keeping pets happy and entertained. I believe it's very important to know your fur babies will be in great hands when boarding with me. My beloved dog Mario is no longer with me; he lived for 13 wonderful years and was the best dog anyone could ask for. I haven't been able to get another one since then. Watching and caring for other pets makes me happy and brings me joy. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. Working from Home is a blessing and has given me the flexibility to care for others pets. I do not have a fenced yard, but I live in a development that gives me plenty of opportunities to go for walks. As long as they come with a leash we will be walking.

About: I've been a pet lover my whole life! I've lived with cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and birds. As a pet parent, I know how stressful it can be to find a good pet sitter or walker. Let me meet with your furry or scaley babies and see that I'm a great match! Currently, I have two large dogs, three fish tanks, and an ever-growing indoor plant collection. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am very flexible and will work with you to meet all your pet needs! I consider watching someone else's pet to be a major responsibility to be taken seriously. My pets' needs come first, always. Pets often need or expect routine and consistency. I'm more than happy to provide your pets and you with reassurance their needs will be met.

About: I have taken care of and handled dogs of all shapes and sizes. I personally have 2 dogs and 5 cats. I am an animal lover I work a normal job but can fit the attention and dedication needed into handling your precious animals. My job would not affect your little ones love and care I have a fenced in yard myself and take extreme precautions when handling any and all animals in my care., making sure your little loved one is safe is my number 1 priority

About: I’ve had a wide array of animals my whole life. Nothing gives me greater joy to take good care of my pets and to see them happy, healthy and thriving. I would love to have the opportunity to take care of other people’s pets because I know how busy life can be and I would love to help out with keeping all animals happy and thriving. I’m currently working part time so I would have lots of time to keep your pet fit, happy and healthy. I am available for walks/check-ins all week long. I strive to give my 2 senior chihuahuas and my cat the best life possible. I have always kept my dogs active and they are 15 and 12 years old and thriving. I believe dogs need walks every day and unfortunately a lot of people have busy enough schedules that’s not always possible. That’s where I come in to help!

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.

About: I have been a dog-lover as far back as I can remember. I can provide a loving home for your dog and ease the anxiety of being apart. I am trustworthy and dependable. Being a pet owner myself, I understand fully that our pets become valued members of our families and should be treated as such. I will make sure that your pet receives lots of love, adequate exercise, and playtime in addition to the essentials. I live in a nice neighborhood conducive to walks and I am also near several parks should we crave a change of scenery. I work part-time, but my schedule is flexible. Between myself and my daughter, our Rover guests are rarely left alone. I enjoy an active lifestyle and look forward to meeting you and your pet! Questions are welcome! Thank you for your consideration!

About: I’ve had lifelong experience caring for dogs and cats, understanding their behaviors, routines, and needs, and always providing attentive, reliable, and loving care as if they were my own. As of right now, I am open to take care of these sweet animals pretty much anytime. Early mornings to late afternoons would be best, however I can be flexible with nights. My goal is to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I am more than happy to accommodate any special needs/requests you may have.

About: I spent most of my childhood at neighbors’ houses helping walk, play with, and care for their pets. I always knew I wanted one of my own, and when I finally got my dog, people constantly complimented his obedience and sweet, playful personality. I’m a dependable, active, and patient pet sitter who treats every animal like my own. I don’t just stop in and leave, but I make sure pets get exercise, attention, and real care. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I typically work from home and live near parks, so I look forward to taking your pet(s) on walks, snuggling, and playing with them. I have a fenced in yard, but I always supervise my pets when they are outside. I keep my pets occupied constantly with frozen Kong toys, frozen lick mats, interactive toys, single ingredient treats, single ingredient bully sticks, etc.

“Kait is wonderful! Very attentive. We know our puppy is in good hands with Kait. Highly recommend.”

About: When it’s time to go outside it’s time. Clean up areas where the pet(s) have pooped @. Please make sure they are trained with handling strangers. Thank you ! Currently, I am currently working part-time after almost a 9 months of unemployment. I have time for pet care services. Just a American putting effort in the American Dream for myself. Since I will take them out to poop, pee & food I’m going to be diligent on that note ! Close & lock doors is a must !

“Takia is a phenomenal sitter! She sent me photos with EVERY walk and always ensured my pets were left with full water and clean areas. She is a true dog lover and even has a puppy wall! Thank you Takia for be a part of Rover. You have been such a great experience!”

About: I’ve spent the past several years working hands-on as a veterinary assistant and dog trainer, and I truly love what I do. In the clinic, I’ve helped care for pets of all ages and temperaments, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for during what can sometimes be stressful visits. As a trainer, I focus on building trust and clear communication between dogs and their owners, using patience and positive reinforcement to create lasting results. Whether I’m assisting in medical care or helping shape better behavior, my goal is always the same—happy, healthy pets and confident, informed owners who feel supported every step of the way. I’m currently working part time and home with my children 4 days a week and when I’m at my part time job I’m only there till 12pm. So I will have lots of time to spoil your fur babies with all the love and attention! I have worked in the veterinary field for over 7 years and currently working as a dog trainer part time your pets will always be properly taken care of and looked after with lots of play time and walks! If boarded in my home if I am not with them I would have them in a crate for rest times if not crate trained we can figure something out always open to help your pets feel the comfort of home away from home!

About: I am 100% available during the holidays this year! I am a major animal person! I’ve always had lots of pets. My mom was a vet tech and always bringing home animals. I used to go to work with her all the time and wanted to be a vet. We had an assortment of cats, dogs, mice, rats, snakes, fish, guinea pigs, squirrels (really! They needed to be rehabilitated 😊)—and I’ve had a little experience with chinchillas, turkeys, bearded dragons, turtles, chickens and horses, to name a few! I’ve volunteered at many animal shelters or care-facilities throughout my life, and currently I have two cats. I’m looking to make a little extra money currently as I just finished my PhD in clinical child psychology (time to repay those student loans) and I love to get the chance to meet new animal friends while doing so. I am comfortable giving medications orally and injected and subcutaneous fluids (one of my cats was very ill for several years and at the end of his life needed 11 pills a day and subq fluids, and I have also helped a client give her cat subq fluids a few times a week), walking dogs, playing with and entertaining animals, making sure they are happy and safe, and checking on your home if needed. I’ve worked as a pet sitter, dog walker and house sitter on and off throughout my life for side money. I am happy to spend days, nights or weekends at your house, or drop in whenever needed. I currently have a very open schedule for the next few months. I always care for pets according to instructions provided. I enquire about any elements of their care of which I am unsure. I always want to know their vet, any medical conditions, and your preferred emergency vet. If I have any questions or concerns while caring for your pets, I reach out to confirm what should be done to ensure we continue according to your preferences for your animals’ care.
