Dog Walking Columbiaville

About: I currently work as a kennel technician at a dog and cat lodge/boarding facility where we provide daycare, rooming, and lure course activities. My responsibilities include cleaning kennels, preparing meals, administering medications, and safely handling dogs and cats of all temperaments and needs, including barrier-aggressive, blind, and deaf pets. I do let-outs, playtime, and daily care to make sure every animal stays safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My experience in a professional pet care environment has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to stay calm in high-energy situations. I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I plan my day around feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m reliable, organized, and make sure every pet gets consistent care and plenty of love. I always put a pet’s safety first. I follow the owner’s instructions, keep a clean and safe environment, provide fresh water and exercise, and treat every pet with care, patience, and respect.

About: I have 21 years of comfortability around pets (since I was born) and 3 years of professional pet sitting experience with both dogs & cats :). I have experience with senior pets, puppies, and kittens. I have a part time job where shifts may be up to 8 hours. If you are interested in me sitting for you, be aware I may need to be away from the house for 8-9 hours for work. But this is usually only 3-4 days a week and shifts may even be shorter like 4-7 hours. Outside of my work schedule I dedicate all remaining time to caring for your pets! I treat my pets with love, care, and as a part of my family! I would do the same with your pets to make them feel as safe and at home as possible.

“Victoria was timely and prompt with walking our dogs. Very reliable and friendly.”

About: I love to be around animals and volunteer at a dog shelter and a rabbit shelter in my free time. I'm comfortable with both high-energy and senior dogs, and I'm always happy to follow whatever routine works best for your pet. I recently moved to the Heights and work remotely, so I have flexibility in my mornings and afternoons. If anyone is looking for a local dog walker or someone to do midday drop-in visits, I’d love to help out. Feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like to set up a time to meet! I like to give my full attention to the pets I am with. I genuinely enjoy caring for them and I can accommodate any routine you have with your pet.

About: I am a veterinary assistant with many years experience taking care of dogs and cats. I also have several years experience with odd animal care and husbandry. I do work full-time, so my care is going to be more focused on specialty cases and/or times that fit in with my current schedule. I am a veterinary assistant so I am familiar with animal medicine. This will translate to owners who need a little more care for their pets than a normal Rover.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs my whole life. Growing up, my family bred Australian shepherds. I’ve owned small dogs like a Chihuahua and big dogs like Great Pyrenees. I’ve had experience with just about every breed of dog. I grew up in farm land and I love animals of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. I’m a pitbull lover as I currently own one. I love being outdoors and giving lots of cuddles! I currently work full time in a school so I get plenty of time off including holiday breaks and summer hours. I only work 7 hours a day Monday-Friday. So I’m available for overnight care. I’m available most weekends as well. I would feel more comfortable in your home so your pets don’t get any anxiety being away from their safe place. I’m trustworthy and reliable. I’ve had background checks and I have reliable sources. Your pet will be in good care with me.

“Wonderful take for our sweet dog. Charity sent the best pictures, provided care for our dog and made us feel better while we were away. We’d definitely use her again!”

About: I have a considerable amount of experience working with dogs on the personal and professional level. Being a dog groomer for over ten years has given me the opportunity to get accustomed to all different breeds and ages of dogs. I've worked with everything from five pounds on up. I have also owned and trained three dogs of my own. I enjoy being active with my dogs. We've done obedience classes, agility, dock diving, and fly ball together, as well as hiking trails or just walking around the neighborhood. I would love the opportunity to get to know your dog. At this time, I only offer day visits in my home. I would be able to provide full grooming services for dogs up to 50 pounds. Rates starting at $25. I do require that you sign a pet care agreement form for day visits and a grooming consent form if you would like your dog groomed. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can explore freely, supervised of course. During the day your dog would have freedom to roam around the house. I do require that your dogs be up to date on their rabies vaccination (need to show proof) and on a flea preventative. I will not book without doing a meet and greet first. We need to make sure this is the best possible environment for your dog and for mine. I am certified in dog first aid and CPR should a situation arise. If I have to leave the house for any unforeseen reason your dog will be crated. This is for your and my dog's safety.

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm with two dogs as a child and have had many different-sized animals since. Im currently laid off work while recovering from a shoulder surgery so I have open availability and my shoulder is healed so I have no restrictions on walks or animal size I own a fenced-in lot next to my house for outside time. I have one super friendly dog who loves it out there and a room with a door so I don't have to use a crate inside.

About: I have been a part time dog sitter, cat sitter, house sitter, etc since I was 10 years old. I've also been a volunteer at my local animal shelter since I was 15. I've taken care of old dogs, young dogs, energetic dogs, couch potato dogs, friendly dogs, shy dogs, big dogs, small dogs, you name it. I've been doing this a long time and I've gotten really good understanding each pet and their individual needs. Every dog is different, and I love them all. I also have experience with dogs who need medications and ear drops, and I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid! I provide pet care full time, helping owners have peace of mind when they have to leave their buddies behind for a trip, or to go to work, it makes me happy knowing I can help out people and animals who could use an extra set of hands. I have an active personal life, always making plans friends and family, but offering services on here allows me to plan my leisure time around times I'm needed for pet care. Firstly, I want to say I understand meeting people online and inviting them into your home can be very anxiety inducing, and I want to reassure you that with me, your pet, your house, and your belongings are safe. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm here to help answer anything that could cause you worry. Your pets are part of the family and I understand staying safe is a priority. When I personally am trusted to stay in someone's home, I usually stick around the same area of the house out of habit. I keep food where it belongs to prevent mishaps, and keep things off the floor to prevent injuries of their me or pets. When going for walks I like to stick to trails or sidewalked areas that have decent cell reception, just in case. I keep treats with me, extra bags, and have a phone holder for my wrist so I can have a hand free, especially for dogs who get excited from wildlife and could suddenly pull really hard anytime. I keep a pop up bowl and a bottle for water breaks. Before going for longer walks I touch test the path in case they are too hot. I also have experience putting jackets on dogs in the colder months.

And of course, a shining pet sitting history (: We are open to all breeds, energy levels, and temperaments, and willing to do anything necessary to make your animals stay as anxiety-free and fun as possible! Dylan works Monday through Friday 8-4, whereas I work Tuesday to Friday 10:30-6:30, and Saturdays 8-4. Saturday, Sunday, and Monday someone is always home and available! We have a fenced in yard, a full basement, a large pole barn, and multiple rooms in our home! We currently have no pets, but plan on keeping clients and our own dogs separate unless your pup is more of a regular and gets along with ours. We are very familiar with crate/rotate, and have multiple areas where enrichment, play, and relaxing time can be fulfilled. Some dogs prefer staying at their own home - that service is available depending on the situation and schedule!
