Dog Walking Cresson

About: I've always had pets from conventional to exotic growing up! I currently have a 7 year old Schnauzer and a 3 year old blind tabby cat! I love animals in all sizes. I'm familiar with giving oral and topical medications and have fostered sick animals before. I like to take my time with each pet, and loving, quality attention is important to me. I'm comfortable with shy animals, and am more than willing to take my time to ensure he/she is completely comfortable and understands that they are safe with me. I'm very clean and sanitary, and you can expect me to take care of everything as if it were my own. I'm happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have, and I look forward to being able to lovingly care for your pet.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11 years old, caring for pets of all kinds for neighbors, friends, and family. Over the years, I’ve done everything from walking, feeding, bathing, and playtime to staying with pets for weeks at a time while their families are away. I’m a huge animal lover (I always joke that I love dogs more than people 😂), and I have two of my own babies! I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets, and I’ll always make sure they feel safe, loved, entertained, and cared for just like they’re my own. I’m a full-time hairstylist with the flexibility to create my own schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine! I’m consistently available in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I can schedule breaks throughout my workday when needed. I’m also available for overnight stays, so your pets can have plenty of company and care while you’re away! I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any special routines your pet may have. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and company while you’re away, and I’m always happy to send pictures and updates for a little extra peace of mind! I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Kaylee came to pick up my dog with a treat and sent me pictures throughout his entire walk, letting me know that he went potty and got to enjoy the outside with her! 10/10 will rebook with her! Thank you for taking such good care of Bart on his walk with you!”

I try my best to ensure that your dogs will have a safe, comfortable, and fun experience. I very much follow the dogs lead and mood.

“Dawn is the best! My two beagles love her! They are two rescues and usually very suspicious of people but Dawn, with her kindness, loving, attentive ways was able to connect with them immediately. She is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond to provide excellent care to my girls. Dawn looks after my babies frequently and treats them like they're her own. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do it!”

This includes pet sitting, diet management, some training, daycare, and more. I also have 2 years of veterinary experience giving me an insight to recognize behaviors of all sorts of pets alike along with understanding how to work with them. I absolutely love pets, after all I love my own. I have about 7 of them myself including fur and scaled babies alike. My mornings usually start with them, and my nights end with them as well. With my two years of veterinary experience, I can recognize patterns that are out of the ordinary or are strange to the particular animal. This allows me to have proper knowledge of what to alert the pet parent to and ask if the behavior is normal for their babies while also keeping them updated to ensure that they are safe and taken care of.
