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: My goal is to make sure that pet parents like me have someone they can trust to help care for their babies. I have two years of experience working at a boarding/daycare facility where I was a supervisor for 1.5 years there, this means that I have experience working with dogs who need to take any type of medication- like insulin. I have been working at an animal shelter for 6 months where I’ve grown to learn more about the body language of dogs which has made me more confident in making sure the animals are comfortable and I can tell when they are starting to get overstimulated. I treat every fur baby like my own just as I would hope anyone else would mine. I am currently doordashing, actively seeking more work. My schedule is very flexible so I am able to do last minute drop in’s if needed! I have a fenced in property where your dogs would be safe from getting out and wandering around, I have 3 very social dogs who love to have friends but I could also keep everyone separated if that is what’s needed. I also have crates if your pet needs to go in one. If I were to be at my clients home I would make sure that your pets are able to go potty at a scheduled time either going in your backyard or bringing them on a walk to get everything out of their system. I can make sure that your pet will not have anything in their area that could hurt them or be eaten which could cause more damage as well.

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.

“Sandy was awesome! She walked my pup, played with her, and fed her. She also sent pictures and stayed in contact. I really appreciate her helping me while I was out of town. Derby seemed so happy after being with her. Can’t say thank you enough!”

About: I have grown up with animals and am an animal lover by nature. I have house sat for several families, having experience with multiple dog homes, cats, and birds. I have provided cared for rambunctious puppies and kittens as well, and I love to meet new furry friends! Currently my schedule for the summer I will be working out of the home from the times of 8:30 AM to 5:00PM three days a week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. When I pet sit I prioritize being there for the pets as much as possible so that your animals can receive the love and care they deserve! I am comfortable leashing and walking dogs, even ones that pull. If I do leave during the day I like to crate the dogs I watch so they have a safe space when I’m gone, and I make sure to keep the floor clear of any hazards that could cause a potential problem.

“Chloe was amazing! She was great with Ziva and sent me photos of their walk. She's reliable, responsible, and definitely loves dogs. Ziva was tired and happy when I came home. I would definitely contact Chloe again!”

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: Hi! I’m Maria, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’ve dedicated years of my life to. I have over 10 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace, I understand that every pet deserves care that’s tailored specifically to them. My partner and I work together as a team, which means your pets receive twice the attention, care, and reliability. Having two experienced animal lovers allows us to be flexible with scheduling and provide consistent, dependable care for your pets, whether you’re away for the day or an extended vacation. I offer: • Dog Walking • Drop-In Visits • House Sitting • Overnight Boarding • Puppy Care • Senior Dog Care • Medication Administration (if needed) • Lots of playtime, cuddles, enrichment, and exercise! I’ve cared for everything from tiny toy breeds to giant breeds, including dogs with anxiety, high energy, special routines, and unique personalities. I also have experience with cats and other household pets, so if your family includes more than just dogs, they’re in great hands too. When your pet stays with us or we care for them in your home, they’re treated like family. We stick to their normal routine as closely as possible because we know consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether that means long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, we adjust our care to what makes your pet happiest. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with a member of your family. That’s why communication is one of our top priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for. Our goal isn’t just to watch your pet. We want to become someone both you and your furry family member can trust for years to come. We’d love the opportunity to meet you and provide the same love, patience, and attention we give our own pets every single day. We can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐾 One of us works full time, however the other stays at home and focuses on animals and etc. We’re always able to be flexible and accommodate everyone’s needs We always make sure to meet prior to bookings and if needed or wanted to I do like to send pictures and videos of your fur babies while in my care. I know everyone misses their little babies.

“Randy walked my dog today, and I have to say I was nothing more than impressed. I got multiple pictures and constant communication. I really appreciate Randy walking my dog in the time that I needed. I will be reusing Randy’s services whenever I need someone to walk my dog that I can trust. Thank you, Randy.”

About: My name is Keri and I have been around animals since I was a baby. I live in a two bedroom house with my husband. Every animal has their own unique character and I know they are like family. So, I will give them love and care as if I were taking care of your child because I know how much they mean to you. All types of animals are welcome in my home. I care for people and animals, so I will be there if you want someone as your regular walker or sitter. I believe in honesty and kindness, there's enough chaos in this world. Why add to it? My schedule is wide open most days. If there is anything that I am not able to do, I will let you know. I am currently starting 2024 fall classes. I make sure doors are closed and they are always outside with a leash. They will get plenty of attention and treats from me !

About: I have watched my cousin's shi tzu many times for extended periods of time. It has went well every time. Also I have over 15 years of having a pet in my home. Walking dogs and taking care of them is something that I have a lot of experience in. I have a very flexible schedule as an independent contractor so i can be available at any time. Whenever I watch my cousin's dog, it becomes a full time endeavor. I take pride in taking care of the things in my environment whether it is lawn care, businesses, car, or my hobbies. I walk them regularly. I make sure the pets are fed on schedule. I pay attention to the pet's communication signals, and I am a caring person towards them.

About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I also have hands-on experience giving medications and vaccinations from my time working as a veterinary assistant. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets both inside and outside the home and have experience with boarding, dog walking, medication administration, and in-home visits for feeding and watering. Every animal I care for quickly becomes part of my extended family, and I truly enjoy every moment spent making them feel safe, loved, and spoiled. I currently work from home, giving me plenty of time to provide attention and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible and is very convenient for those who may need a little extra attention. My fenced yard offers space to play, and my two friendly dogs are always ready to welcome a new friend. If needed, I can also easily crate your dog for comfort or routine.

About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel
