Dog Walkers in Decatur, MI

“First time Rover users, so we did a walk with Lillie to get Odin acclimated before house sitting for a week next week. Lillie handled Odin’s confusion very well and took him around the subdivision and took notes for the upcoming stay.”

“Vanessa was great with my two chow chows! She was extremely communicative, showed up on time, and kept me up to date on everything. I would definitely book Vanessa again when I am out of town!”

About: Hi all! My experience with pets begins from early on, as I’ve always had my own pups! Through adopting a variety of different breeds, I have learned so much about animal behavior and how to achieve each individual need. Growing up, I had a Cocker Spaniel, who taught me how to love through their lively and adoring personalities. After I moved out from my parents, my husband and I adopted a Shar Pei, Kimo, who taught me to never stop fighting for the highest level of medical care to support his needs. After his passing to the rainbow bridge, I rescued a Border Collie, who brought back my energetic and perky personality. When I realized she needed more space to run and achieve her highest potential, I re-homed her to a family member, who loved her dearly. I currently have two furry friends, Phineas (a Bichon Frise mix) and Kumba (a Mini Goldendoodle). Phineas was our rescue baby, who taught me patience and admiration as he had numerous medical issues upon adoption. Today, I surround myself with their love, and provide them my utmost fondness. Through daily walks, enrichments activities,  and tons of cuddles, I support my doggos in every way possible. Beyond my pets, I have experience as an SPCA volunteer, working with countless dogs of a variety of breeds in achieving walks and play yard experiences. The SPCA showed me that every dog deserves a chance because every pup has its own special place in our lives. I’m excited to expand my love for animals to your furry family, and embrace each of their quirks as it feeds my heart and soul when I have a positive interaction with our beloved pets! I can’t wait to hear from you all! Thank you :) As a stay at home mom, I have lots of time to spare during the weekdays to care for your furry friends, ensuring I fulfill all their needs with lots of extra love! Since I am currently working on flexible projects in my home, I have free time to play, walk, and wash dogs. I would love to care for your pet during my weekdays as I have optimal time to give your pets the attention they crave. Within each of my clients home, I work to provide individual, quality care to achieve each pets personal needs. I take pride in discussing each animals behavior, favorite activities, needs, and interests to make sure I provide the highest possible level of support for each furry family. I hope to care for your loving pets within the comfort of your home, yard, and where your dog is comfortable being walked. In regards to specifics, such as crating, handing out enriching activities, or making extra time to play fetch, I will work hard to achieve all needs that you desire. I am able to take your pet for walks down your street or travel to a safe walking environment, whichever works best for you and the happiness of your pet!

About: I have grown up with tons of animals I have had so many dogs growing up from blood hound to labs to rat terriers to Boston! I love dogs and cat! I am a nursing major, so during the summer I’m pretty much free! I have a wedding over summer but other than that nothing else! I would like clear instructions from the owners of what they are like with other animals as well as the dogs normal routine so I can perform it to the best of my ability!

I can administer medications (if needed), I will feed as you need me to; and I promise to give your pet lots of love and cuddles.

“From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.”

About: Big or small, I love them all! 💕 I’ve had pets since I was a small child. I’ve cared for sick puppies & kittens, elderly cats & dogs. I have 3 years experience working at a pet bathing company. There I learned a lot about proper hygiene of various breeds and how to safely handle aggressive pets. I also have 400+ hours of volunteer horse care at an equine therapy barn. I walk my own dog daily and he is high energy. I’m always in search of play pals for him to burn energy with. Let us walk your pup! I love to snuggle my pets & make sure they are clean and bug free. I can bathe and lightly groom your pets when needed. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies. ❤️

About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life! Whether it be my own, friends or family. I have been relied on for out of town care to walks! Currently, I primarily work from home and make my own schedule so my availability can be open when planning ahead for my weeks to come! Currently offering care in clients home. Can navigate homes with or without fences, dogs needing to be on leash or running free. Truly any environment I am comfortable with.

About: I am available in the evenings and weekends so I can be with your pets at all time and tend to their needs. I have owned dogs my whole life as well as cats. I have also grown up on a farm so I am very comfortable caring for large farm animals as well. I have 2 dogs of my own who are both very dog friendly and 1 cat who sometimes thinks she's a dog but doesn't care for other cats as she was attacked by other cats before we took her in. I love all animals and breeds don't matter to me. Your fur child will be treated and cared for like they are my own! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have long leads, go for walks and go to the dog parks frequently so your pet would get plenty of exercise.

“Carolyn is so good with my dog! Even though it was raining, she walked her and also cleaned up the wet paw mess afterwards. We appreciate her so much!”

About: Hi, I'm Haley and I'm a 25 year old Health/PE Teacher. I have two cats of my own at home. I have had experience watching many different breeds of dogs since I was around 13. I'm an overall animal lover, and I have worked with the humane society of Mount Pleasant through my school's program, called HATS of CMU. Additionally, I will love and care for your dogs (or cats) like they're one of my own :) I am fully available and fully committed to caring for your pets regardless of the time of day. Please contact a day in advanced for an AM scheduling request. I currently live in an apartment so I cannot house more than the two cats that I currently have. However, I will make sure to follow the schedule that you already have for your animals and will remain attentive to them and provide the quality care that they deserve :)

About: I've been around animals my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats. In the country, I also had other animals: horses, goats, and ducks. I'm also currently taking care of a Leopard gecko. I feed my pets once in the morning and once at night. I walk my dog in the afternoon and let him off leash when no one is around. My cat is indoors, so I feed her, play with her, and give her space when she needs it. My dog lives in a kennel outside, but I go out to play with him by walking him to an area where he can run free and also playing with him with his toys.

About: I’ve always had a passion for caring for pets and animals and giving them the most love and comfort while there person/people are away. I’ve always had pets in my house growing up, big and small dogs so I’m used to anything! I’m very flexible with what you need for your pets and will accommodate to their needs! I love giving the best love and care while you are away. I love sending updates too because whenever my pets are away it makes me feel better to receive text messages and video updates! I’ve always had animals my whole life so It’s kind of just second nature. I’ve been dog watching for about 4 to 5 years now I absolutely love animals. I always send picture and text updates, I love to meet the people before I accept the listings ( just a safety thing for me). I will insure your fur baby has the best time!

About: I am currently a stay at home mom looking to make some money doing what I love. I've had 3 years experience as a vet tech before leaving to be a full time mother. I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart. I grew up with dogs always in the house. Growing up we always had anything from hamsters to potbellied pigs running around. I currently have two dogs, a rabbit, a cat, a snake, a turtle and a pig. I have open availability and am pretty flexible to your needs. I'm available every day of the week and on most holidays! Just let me know what works best for you. I have 2 very friendly dogs at home that love to meet other dogs but I understand there are some dogs that just like to be alone and I respect that. I can keep dogs separated if need be. I have a couple different sized crates at my home. I have a decent sized yard to play in. Alternatively I can come to your house and I will follow any instructions you might have
