Dog Walking In Dixon

About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.

About: Hi, I’m Hanna! I love exploring the city with the help of your animals! My favorite thing to do in my free time is read a book on my porch. I have a big black cat named Jeff who is super friendly and loves people and attention. I’m used to living in a neighborhood filled with friends who need assistance with walking and feeding their pets so I would love to help you out. My schedule is super open and flexible so feel free to message me with any questions. I’m open to last minute bookings and hopefully meet some reoccurring faces! I can also care for other pets outside of cats and dogs. Excited to meet you!! I can work dog walking and pet care into my schedule as needed! Would love to work caring for your pet(s) into my daily or weekly schedule I can provide care in your home for both dogs and cats or provide only short term care in my home for small (or larger elderly) dogs when available

About: I have hands on experience with dog walking, house sitting, and cat sitting, and I’ve also had dogs of my own, giving me a strong understanding of daily care, routines, and pet behavior. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail oriented, making sure your pet stays on their routine and feels comfortable at home. I provide updates, follow instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety and well being at all times. I’m currently a nursing student working part time, but I have a flexible schedule and make time for pet care. With summer break coming up, I’ll have significantly more availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate more daytime care during the summer. I’m reliable with scheduling and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of proper introductions, routines, and supervision. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was a kid, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. One thing that sets me apart is my experience with senior and younger pets. I cared for my own dog in her later years when she developed back leg problems. I helped her move around the house, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her lots of love and patience every day. I additionally took care of my other dog in her early months waking up multiple times nightly to calm her down. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a senior pet needing extra care, I’m confident in handling all kinds of needs. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, so I’m able to care for pets whenever needed. Pet care easily fits my routine, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pets specific needs and schedule.your pets comfort and routine will always come first. I believe pets are most comfortable and relaxed in their own home, which is why I only offer care in the clients space. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect in return. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Faith is wonderful!”

About: Lifelong pet owner 🐾 and longtime pet care provider!! 3 years of professional Animal Shelter experience 🏠 and 10 years of volunteer Animal Shelter experience. ⭐️ Experience administering specialized care: bottle-feeding, injury, sick, and senior animals 💊 Also working with high-intelligence and high-energy breeds (border collies, cattle dogs… malinois 🐊). I respect owners structures for their animals, and am ready to learn and implement training regimens as needed 🫡 BUT I’m also happy to chill and study with your couch potato/snugglebug 🤗 💕 📝 I am a full time student with hybrid online and in-person classes inside the city 💻 I am mobile between classes 🚙 and can also take some classes from other locations with wifi. Beyond exercise, potty breaks, and meal time, I engage pets one-on-one with play and enrichment tailored to them - like treat puzzles for the independent thinker 🤔 and rough and tumble sports for the athletic socialite 🏈⚽️🏟️ I don’t attend dog parks or group play sessions unless that is requested. I DO NOT TAKE DOGS OFF-LEASH unless we are in a safe, enclosed space with no unfamiliar animals or people.

“Kelly is amazing! So many thank yous for taking care of my doggo! You’ve been a huge help in keeping him happy and healthy. You’ve pivoted from dog walking to helping shuttle my little furry dude home from doggy day camp. Due to my work schedule at the hospital not allowing me to pick him up, you have become such a blessing. Thank you thank you thank you and I cannot recommend you enough!”

About: I have been caring for pets all my life! I had a dog of my own and am now looking to help care for others' furry friends. I can provide references! I am currently not working, as I just graduated with two master's and am taking some time off before starting a job. My schedule is very flexible. I am a clean, reliable pet sitter and will take great care of your home while watching your pet. I can potentially watch at my home if needed, but I do not have a fenced-in yard and have roommates.

“Eryn did great and was very accommodating to modify the walks as needed when something comes up. Very resourceful and helpful and I’m thankful for that.”
