Dog Walking Crannell

About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since I was a young girl and knew my life would be dedicated to them. I then became a vet tech in 2018 and have loved being able to take care of them medically as well. I have gained so much knowledge of healthcare and husbandry ranging from puppies/kittens to seniors of all kinds of breeds and personalities to give your fur baby the best. I’m very familiar with most health conditions and comfortable with all medications(oral/injection) I am also responsive and prepared when health concerns or even emergencies come up. I have my own vet tech kit to treat minor injuries and illnesses but will always seek the appropriate medical care if necessary.I am also happy to provide basic grooming like bathing brushing and even nail trims ( all if they are comfortable with it) free of charge if requested. Your pet will be in the most excellent hands, I will always do everything in my power to keep them safe happy and healthy and I will love spending time with them. I am very professional reliable and you can rest easy knowing your pets are in my care and I will always keep you updated. I cannot wait to meet you and your pets as they will be treated like my own ( royal treatment for sure 👑) I’m just taking relief shifts as a vet tech currently and have a flexible schedule for pet sitting. When I’m taking care of your pets they are my number one priority. I will always care for your pets as my own and will always do everything I can to make sure they are comfortable happy and safe. I spoil my senior dog Curley and I always do the same for you pups no doubt. I always check in for mental and physical wellness 24/7 and make adjustments as needed.

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, fish, houseplants, and homes for over 35 years. I am responsible, dependable, and experienced with pet care. I am retired and have a flexible schedule to care for pets. I can work with you to find the best days, weeks, and time to care for your pets. I have a dog and cat and have a fenced yard. I am flexible on where to care for your pet, and in most cases it would be your home or nearby for walks.

About: I am a long time animal lover and have been working in pet care for over 25 years professionally. I have ample experience with dog walking and overnight pet sitting. I ran my own dog walking business as a sole proprietor for many years, and also have worked as an independent contractor for other dog walking & pet sitting companies. In the past, I've cared for many different animals of varying ages and breeds; from puppies and kittens to seniors. I have plenty of experience administering medication for animals who need it, whether it be ear/eye drops, pills, and insulin injections. I also have experience caring for small and furry (rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs) as well as scaly (fish, snakes, turtles). I'm responsible, caring, and punctual, and I genuinely care about providing great service to you and your pet. I am looking forward to meeting your furry (or scaly) friend! My schedule is fairly flexible and I will accept bookings Mon-Sun from 8am to 5pm. I prefer to do an free consultation with your dog before you book your first walk. I do appreciate advance bookings, but will do my best to fit you in! Your pet is a member of your family, so it is important to me that your pal feels loved and cared for while you are away. I travel to you and I am not currently available for boarding in my home.

About: I have worked and volunteered in animal care my entire life! I was a Senior Animal Care Lead at an animal rescue where my duties were to be directly in charge of 30+ dogs and cats. I have worked with every kind of pet scenario in many different environments, including: Senior animals, Special-needs pets, Behavioral cases, Medical Emergencies, and many more! If you need a reliable and experienced pet sitter, I am the guy for the job! I currently have a completely open schedule! I've just moved to Arcata from central California and I'm looking to work with pets on the side for some extra money. Making sure your pets are comfortable and safe is my number one priority. I can work with whatever your pet's routine may be whether that is play time, walks, potty breaks, feeding, crate time, etc.

About: Grew up with family dogs, and strategically made friends with cats so I could pretend they were mine. Currently I have a 7 year old goldendoodle who has taught me a TON about training dogs in the 6 years I've had him. Your good boy will enjoy every smell on our walk and get some (owner approved) treats along the way, and I'm happy to continue your work on any behaviors you're encouraging! My schedule is pretty much wide open for north county visits (McKinleyville and up) - feel free to reach out with same day requests! Further afield than that I may need some notice, but am happy to work something out! Just send me a message. I'm a pretty "safety first," cautious dog owner. I'll follow your instructions to the letter, and will err on the side of caution. I like to take the time to get to know your critters, and let them get to know me so that it's always exciting when I show up! For interested dog owners, I can facilitate a meet with my own dog for a double walk or a dog park playmate - after a meet and greet to make sure they get along.

About: Former groomer skilled in working with large and small breeds. I am adept at building trust with animals, a credit to my seven years experience in animal rescue. Specializes in providing professional and compassionate overnight care. I am a graduate student conducting my work remotely, thereby affording me the flexibility to accommodate your specific needs. My professional commitments do not necessitate any travel enabling me to provide attentive and reliable care during your absence. I believe in providing personalized care for every pet I look after. Meeting with clients before accepting a job allows me to understand each pet’s unique personality, dietary and medical needs. Reducing stress and anxiety by maintaining routine will contribute to a smoother transition while owners are away. In my approach to pet care ensuring access to fresh water is a personal priority.

“Casee has been so great to work with. She has cared for my sweet yet challenging at times 10-month-old rough collie. Casee has been beyond exceptional at communicating with me about any concerns as well as reporting what happened during their walk together. Casee is prompt and responsible about keeping our scheduled walks and makes every minute count with my dog by giving her a quick neighborhood walk and then a frisbee or ball session at the nearby park. She also has a warm demeanor that makes it so easy to talk to, as if you have known her for years! I really lucked out with finding her and I highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”

About: I grew up with and have taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, birds, horses, reptiles, and amphibians, so I am well acquainted with many types of creatures! I was also a veterinary technician and wildlife caretaker, so am familiar with giving medications, shots, cleaning and grooming, and overall behavior indicators of wellbeing. I have cared for newborn kittens, and senior dogs and cats. Animals have always brought me a lot of joy and I hope to meet your fur baby soon! I currently have a cat and three chickens who I love a lot. So unfortunately, I cannot board any pets at my home. I have a remote job, so am flexible with home stays, walks, feeding schedules, and anything else to keep your friend happy. I always first consider the pets' and my safety. In my own home, I have spent the last 4 years helping my cat overcome her traumatic past through patience and routine. I give her lots of treats and mental stimulation, such as finding new items for her to bat around and sit on. We also have chickens, which have a fully fenced backyard so they can roam. I also love spoiling them with watermelon, apples, and mealworms!

About: I have over four years of experience working at a doggie daycare, where I've cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Through this experience, I've developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, body language, and common health concerns. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and dogs with special medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring for signs of illness or discomfort. Caring for animals is my passion, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive, and individualized care for every pet. Whether it's helping a puppy learn good habits, making sure a senior dog is comfortable, or giving extra attention to a nervous or reactive dog, I always prioritize each animal's safety and well-being. I am currently working on weekends, but I am available throughout the week. I am happy to care for your pet mornings, afternoons, and nights. I believe in providing a safe, enriching environment where dogs can be dogs. I love letting dogs explore on walks, sniff to their heart's content, play, and enjoy new experiences while always prioritizing their safety and comfort. I also understand that every dog is different; some thrive with more freedom, while others need structure, routine, and reinforcement of their training. I take the time to learn each pet's needs and follow the owner's preferences to ensure consistency, trust, and a positive experience for both the pet and their family.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages, I’m passionate about providing top-notch, personalized care for your furry family members. Whether it's a playful pup, a senior companion, or a pet with special needs, I tailor my approach to meet their unique requirements. What sets me apart: -Flexible Care: I’m happy to stay with your pet all day if needed, ensuring they get constant companionship and attention, whether you're at work or away. -Medication Administration: Experienced in giving pets oral meds, injections, and other treatments as needed, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands. -Puppy Training: Helping puppies with the basics like housebreaking and socialization, all with positive reinforcement methods. -Senior Pet Care: I understand the needs of older pets, providing gentle walks, extra comfort, and ensuring they receive their medication on time. Your pet’s well-being is my priority, and I’ll treat them like my own—providing a safe, caring, and enriching environment in your absence. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine as I work part-time from home, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. Whether it's during the day for a midday walk, some playtime, or extended care while you're away, I can easily adjust to meet your pet’s needs. In my home, your pet will feel like part of the family. I have two friendly dogs who love meeting new friends, so if your pet enjoys socializing, they’ll have a blast together! We have a small, secure fenced front yard where they can safely play and explore. Plus, I'm always happy to take them to local beaches, parks, or walking trails for fun outdoor adventures. If your pet prefers to stay in their own environment, that’s absolutely fine too! I can come to your home and provide as much care as needed, whether it’s for short visits or staying overnight. I’m flexible and will ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved, sticking to their regular routine while you're away. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize your pet's well-being and will always adapt to their unique needs, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hi There! My name is Bailey and I am an experienced pet sitter with repeat clients who continue to trust me for ongoing care. I specialize in providing calm, consistent, and attentive care for pets while their owners are away. I have been caring for animals for many years, starting with family and friends’ pets, and have been active on Rover since January 2025. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, and pet sitting, always focused on keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I have experience with cats, dogs, and a variety of other animals, including reptiles and small farm animals. I’m confident following detailed care instructions and adjusting to each pet’s individual needs and personality. My pet parents receive clear communication and reliability, and I provide regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If you’re looking for dependable, stress-free care and someone your pets can feel comfortable with, I’d love to help! Pet care fits into my weekly routine and is my primary focus outside of my part-time job. I work as a hostess Friday–Sunday starting at 4pm, which leaves my mornings, weekdays, and earlier afternoons open for pet care. I am available for stop-in visits, feeding, walks, and overnight house sitting, and I do my best to accommodate regular or recurring clients whenever possible. My top priority is always the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I treat each home and animal with respect and follow all owner instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine. I provide care in the client’s home, where pets are most comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I am not currently able to offer boarding in my home, but I am fully available for in-home visits, walks, and house sitting. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home, and I make sure to provide reliable, attentive care along with regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I have been surrounded by animals for most of my life and I love to help them live their best lives! I studied pre-veterinary biology for two years, so I know about the science behind animals as well as understanding their basic care and needs. I am very good at matching the energy level of any animal and I have a special passion for exotic animals (but of course I love dogs and cats too!). I am experienced in giving medication and I do not shy away from cleaning up any and all messes that they may make. I am currently a student at Cal Poly Humboldt and I have a lot of breaks in my class schedule. For house sitting, I would only be out of the house for 2-4 hours at a time for classes on weekdays and would be able to stay all day on weekends. My schedule is also perfect for drop ins and potty breaks. I feel that I am a very easy person to work with and I will follow any and all guidelines or rules that you present to me. I will also help with house cleaning if you would like that, in addition to cleaning up after your pet(s).

“Annalee has been such a life saver with walking my fur baby Hercules! I’ve been in tight situations where I’m asking for a walk just a few hours prior and she happily agrees which does not go unnoticed. She’s very diligent about providing photos on how the walk went, does a great lock up of my place, and is conscious of where to walk him depending on weather/other circumstances. I highly recommend her to any other owners looking for a dependable and trustworthy walker!”
