Dog Walking Colwyn

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.

About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up with dogs and cats in the house. I’ve also had ferrets and a snake as pets. There was a period of time where, I had 3 dogs of my own at the same time. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs. I am a nurse that works from home full-time therefore, your pet will have companionship throughout the day. I will enjoy having the company of your pet while I am working as well. I have administered medications to animals as directed by pet owners and veterinarians. I am able to administer oral and topical medications. I have confidently cared for recently spayed/neutered animals. I am experienced in puppy potty/feeding routines, crate training as well as positive reinforcement with or without treats. While caring for your family’s fur baby, I will treat them like family and as directed per your wishes. I will attempt to adhere to their routines to make the transition of not being at home easier for them. There will be plenty of built in time for attention, potty breaks and playtime. Your furbaby will be made to feel at home here. I will make every attempt to adhere to their home routine as much as possible to lessen the stress of this transition. I have a small unfenced grassy area that is available for quick potty breaks. For exercise and the longer potty breaks, we would go on walks through the neighborhood. I currently walk approximately 2 miles (weather permitting) for my own physical fitness therefore if your pup is willing and able, I would love the company. Typically, when I have watched friends and family's dogs we took walks 3 times a day. There will always be room for other accommodations if more or less walking is needed. I will ensure that your pet is safe and comfy while they sleep at night and rest during the day. There is a clean doggy bed and plenty of blankets to choose from if laying on the floor as I have hardwood floors. Please feel free to bring and favorite toys or advise of any activities that your pet enjoys as it is my goal to make them feel at home. My home gets the morning and afternoon sun though the large front window which provides a space for your pet to sunbathe if they so choose. There is also a sitting windowsill for them to enjoy some outside activity with the safety of being indoors. As previously stated, I have a small, unfenced yard available for quick potty breaks. For dogs, majority of their bathroom breaks will be walks depending on their energy and activity level. For visiting kitty's the litter box will likely be placed in my semi-finished basement unless other stipulations are discussed. Your kitty will be lovingly guided to the litter box to get acclimated to it's whereabout. I will provide the desired updates, pictures and communicate any issue timely so that you can feel at ease that your beloved pet is being well cared for. As a previous pet owner, I understand the worries of handing your beloved pet over to someone to care for them as you do. I assure you that your pet will be well loved and cared for here.

“Paz was very patient with my rambunctious 2 year old large pup!”

“Destinee is everything you could want in a dog walker! Thorough, communicative, enthusiastic, and always right on time. As this was our first time working together, she asked great questions to ensure she was providing the best possible care for my dog. It is clear she takes her job seriously, and she immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my dog’s care in her hands. I look forward to utilizing her services again in the future! Her future in the veterinary field is bright.”

About: Hello, My name Twanakay T., and I am 32 years old. While I don't currently have any pets of my own besides my fish tank, I grew up in a household with cats and dogs, so I have plenty of experience caring for animals. I had a cat named Jenny who lived with me from childhood until I was 18, and my father has a dog named Kingston. He can be quite a handful, but we are always patient with him, and I will bring that same patience to caring for your pets. I’ve also had a variety of pets over the years, including a rat I bought on a whim and a bunny who was quite elusive! I am open to learning exactly how you would like your pets to be cared for, so please let me know your preferences and schedule, and I will do my best to adhere to them. Thank you for considering me! Best regards, Twanakay Thompson I work in a hybrid format, I work from home from Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday to Friday, I work half days in the office. Please let me know if this aligns with your needs, and I would be happy to accommodate any specific requests regarding pet care during those times. Thank you! here is how how I approach pet care: 1. **Familiarization**: I take the time to get to know your pets and their specific needs, routines, and preferences. 2. **Environment**: I ensure that the environment is safe and comfortable for the pets. 3. **Exercise and Play**: Regular playtime and exercise are essential for pet health. 4. **Routine Maintenance**: I follow a consistent routine, including feeding times, bathroom breaks, and any grooming sessions, to help keep the pets relaxed and happy. 5. **Monitoring Health**: I keep an eye on their behavior, appetite, and overall health. If I notice anything unusual, I'm prepared to contact you or a veterinarian if necessary. 6. **Communication**: I provide regular updates so you can stay informed about your pets’ well-being while you’re away. This can include text messages, photos, or videos. 7. **Bonding**: Building a trusting relationship with your pets is crucial, so I always approach them gently and positively to help them feel secure and loved.

About: Hi! I'm Jacqui, and I've always loved being around animals. I understand that pets are family, so I believe they deserve patience, kindness, and lots of attention while you're away. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific care instructions, whether that's administering medications, sticking to feeding schedules, taking long walks, or giving extra playtime and cuddles. I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Professionally, I work in a role where trust, communication, and reliability are essential, so you can count on me to provide regular updates, photos, and prompt responses throughout your booking. I know how important peace of mind is when someone else is caring for your pet. I welcome dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I'm happy to accommodate their unique routines and needs. My goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they have a fun, comfortable, and stress-free experience. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I work full time from home. So I have the flexibility any day of the week and time of day for walks, overnights, and weekends. I have a backyard and front yard, and my neighborhood is walkable for extended time outside. I also have a cat who is 4 years old, so my home is welcome to any pets that get alone with others if an overnight stay is desired.

About: Having grown up with dogs and cats (...and a couple birds and a hedgehog), and working in pet care/pet sitting on and off for about 12 years I've seen and known a lot of weird, wonderful, sweet, and silly pets. I think my attention to detail sets me apart. I want to know what keeps your fur babies calm & happy. I want to know what stresses them out so we can steer clear: whether it's the sound of skateboards or rolling suitcases, fellow wildlife, or even people. I'm ready to redirect your nearly perfect pet away from their favorite forbidden roadside snack. I also have experience administering medications. I look forward to working with you! I currently do pet care and pet sitting part time and some other gig work (varies from week to week) while I look for other full-time work. I aim to mimic your pets lifestyle when they're in my care to make things as comfortable as possible for them. We're gonna cuddle, we're gonna play!

About: I have been taken care of dogs for five years for family and friends. I have been told that my furry friends love having me as their sitter or and walker. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have lots of time to sit your furry pets. To also show all the love and care they need. I live in a house. I would walk your furry pets around the neighborhood. They would have full range of the house. I can not wait to board your furry pets.

About: I have been caring for all kinds of animals on Rover for almost 8 years now, and got my start even younger at 12 when I started my own neighborhood dogwalking business. I’ve worked for dozens of pet owners on Rover for the past few years and have loved getting to know so many little characters! I’m not in a position to get my own pet right now, so Rover has been an awesome way to get quality time with animals. I work seasonally at a wildlife refuge, but my current position ends on November 6th so starting then I’ll have full time availability for pet sitting! I live in a big apartment in West Philly with my partner who also loves animals (she works seasonally with wildlife!) We have a small fenced backyard that often goes unused. We have no pets in our apartment, but the downstairs neighbor has a dog that your pet will likely never see, but may smell or hear. Starting November 6th, my seasonal position at the urban wildlife refuge comes to a close and I will have full availability for River pets! That means I can work my schedule around you and your pets’ needs and be available for animals that need more time and attention. I have a small fenced in backyard for quick breaks and a private apartment with no other pets or children. I’m active, a hiker, and love long walks - would love if your pet could join!

About: Hello! My name is Elizabeth and I work from home MWF. I have experience with all ages of dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I am a lover of lover of all animals of all sizes and would be more than happy to care for yours. Please reach out to me whenever :) I am a student, I have a very flexible schedule with large breaks in the middle of the day. My classes are MWF in the morning so am free in the afternoons and evenings for walking or pet check-ins. I am available anytime for overnight stays. I care for pets depending on their need. With energetic dogs, I will go on longer walks or take them to a dog park. With older or special needs dogs, we will modify physical activities.

About: Starting local to Philadelphia. I have been taking care of other people's strays and rescuing feral and street animals for several years. I can manage several animals simultaneously and accommodate all of their psychological and physical needs. I have provided care for Chinchillas, Ferrets, Rabbits, cats, and dogs. Dog walking was something I did for two years for my neighbors. I am currently a cat sitter, and provide drop-in visits. In the morning I will check on the needs of any animals ie food and water. I will play and walk with them for about an hour. I will have dogs with similar temperaments play with one another. After playing and walking I will make sure they eat and rest. Throughout the day I will provide activities and enrichment for the pets. At the end of the day i will walk dogs for another hour. I care for pets in my home based on their individualized needs. Certain cats are independent and would prefer not to be touched. I will foster a positive relationship with the pet slowly, and individualize their affection based on their personalities and needs.

“Thank you for walking Mabel.”

About: As the proud owner of a Chihuahua and Shiba Inu mix, I have a deep appreciation for canine boundaries and body language! My own dog prefers his personal space and isn't a fan of meeting new dogs or people, which has taught me how to be a strong advocate for a pup's comfort and safety in public. Because of this, I am highly attentive to subtle stress signals and always let new furry friends warm up to me entirely at their own pace. I never force interaction. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a sensitive soul who needs someone to respect their boundaries and advocate for them on walks, I will ensure they feel safe, respected, and completely understood. I juggle part-time work and veterinary assistant studies, which actually leaves my schedule wide open and flexible to care for your dog! This makes me highly available for mid-day potty breaks, weekday walks, and open to last-minute booking requests. I am easily available for dedicated overnight house-sitting and extended daytime companionship. I offer a low-stress, highly secure environment where your dog's well-being comes first. My home features a fully fenced-in backyard for safe exercise and built-in entertainment like bird and squirrel watching. When house-sitting, I maintain your dog's exact routine in the comfort of their own environment. I follow strict supervision and home security protocols, keep you updated with daily photos, and ensure your house is left perfectly clean.

About: I love taking care of dogs and have taken care of my childhood dog since 2011! My dog was a schnauzer so he required lots of attention which I am happy to provide. :) I’m currently a student, but have classes only intermittently throughout the week! I’m an avid walker so I would love to have a furry friend to walk with me! I study when I’m not in class most of the time, so I’m happy to home stay if your pet requires more attention and company (with classes in between)! Happy to walk and play with them of course!
