Dog Walking Dougherty

“We wanted to thank Mitchell for taking care of our boys. Mitchell was very accommodating to our change of plans and the boys were very happy to see him and go for their walks. Thank you so much!!!”

“I recently had Slava and Sanjana walk my dog for the first time and it was a great experience. They were incredibly attentive, asked thoughtful questions to understand my dog’s needs and personality, and made the walk a true pleasure. Now, we’ve set up a weekly schedule with them, and I’m looking forward to many more positive walks ahead!”

“Zcarina is so careful and sweet with my older dog. She’s super observant and thoughtful in responding to my pup’s good days and bad days. I really appreciate her genuine love for dogs.”

About: I have grown up surrounded by pets of all kinds. Our family loves animals. We took care of our senior dog of 16 years and have experience with the special needs of a senior pet. We now have a sweet Shih Tzu and a 2 year old cat. We are comfortable with dogs of all ages and will provide special care for your pet as needed. We are working from home on a regular basis so there will always be someone with your pet to look after and care for them. We love going on walks with our fur baby and taking him to the park to play with his doggie friends I have a fenced in backyard and plenty of place to play. Our Shih Tzu loves having other dogs over and will give your dog company. Our cat has grown up with our dog and likes and gets along well with other dogs

“Jenarae was on time and professional. She took notes and was ready to work with our pups. She was patient with our pups, as each one has individual needs and she was able to modify her style to accommodate them.”

About: Since 2023, I’ve volunteered at a high-risk animal shelter, working with animals who needed extra care, patience, and love to feel safe. I also have two pets of my own, so I understand how much they mean to you! In addition to my own pets, I’ve cared for many friends’ and family members’ animals, including dogs, cats, and even a chicken ! so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I also have a lot of experience working with pets that are anxious and fearful. I always treat your pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-behaved while in my care. And don’t worry, I welcome all the loving, protective “helicopter pet parents” out there, because I’m one too! My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for you and your pets. I’m generally available any day of the week, and mornings work especially well for me. I can also help out on weekends! I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free of hazards, whether that means checking gates and doors, keeping toxic items out of reach, or creating a calm space for shy pets. Don’t be afraid to ask for pictures every hour because I do that too! In your home, I follow your instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home, I will always provide a safe and cozy space where they can relax, play, and feel loved. My goal is to earn your trust and help your pets feel as happy and safe as they do with you!

“Laura has been walking my golden, Brodie regularly for a few weeks now and I'm really happy with how reliable and caring she is. She sends me updates and photographs on where they walked and lets me know if there are any issues. I really hope she'll continue walking Brodie and I highly recommend her dog walking services.”

About: I grew up with two Golden Retrievers and learned to take care of them at a young age. I also have experience with pet sitting for neighbors and friends animals, whether that be staying at their homes or bringing pets into my own home. I love dogs so much and believe they deserve to be protected and respected just as humans are! I am a college student home for the summer, meaning I have tons of free-time to hangout with the pups. My routine is very simple and includes walking my own dog daily! I have a 3 bedroom home that also includes a fenced in backyard for your pup to play outside! I have a 10 year old Golden Retriever who gets along well with all breeds and is very mellow.

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life; at both houses we had at least 3 cats and 3 dogs at a time with the occasional hamster, rat, snake, or rabbit. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters, and have helped raised two litters (one was kittens, the other was puppies). Having a wide variety of animals introduced me to a wide array of personality types from friendly and cuddly to moody or shy. These experiences have taught me to have an abundance of patience and understanding, and to be able to adapt to individual needs. The animals I’ve watched/raised/trained have been all different breeds and sizes; from a 3 pound chihuahua to a 85 pound German/Pitt mix. I’ve taken care of older dogs, who need extra care, as well as sick dogs and/or dogs with preexisting conditions who require medications once, twice, or three times a day. Not only have I helped with my animals, but I’ve watched other peoples houses/pets as well. I’m pretty much a homebody, so aside from a couple hours each day, I’m available and flexible and can hangout with your pets for as long as you need. I’m a great communicator too, so if an issue were to arise, I will reach out right away because your pet’s health and well-being is my top priority. I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is open and flexible. I do prefer a couple of days of notice in advanced, unless it’s an emergency. I will take care of your pet however you need me to. When it comes your pets health and well-being, I know you know what’s best, and I will never disrespect your wants or needs. If you need me to house sit, I will respect your property. I’m very neat, organized, and clean (slightly OCD) so I would never leave a mess.

About: Hi! I’m Danny, and I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, playtime, companionship, and basic grooming care like brushing and keeping pets clean. Some of the activities I enjoy doing with pets include walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, tug-of-war, indoor games, light training reinforcement, cuddle time, and helping pets stay active and engaged throughout the day. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and family members over the years, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and shy pets that need extra comfort and reassurance. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and making sure pets get plenty of affection and supervision. I currently work as a PT aide Monday through Friday, and my workplace is only about 5 minutes away from my home. Because of that, I’m available most evenings and weekends, and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, care, and bathroom breaks throughout the day when needed. I’m dependable, patient, and responsive, and I always try to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and comforting environment for every pet I care for, and I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets! My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available on most weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, or house sitting. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions. I keep pets safe, supervised, and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for and getting lots of love and attention.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting (no overnights), and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care all day (no overnights). I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.

Vanessa D.

“My original dog walker switched schedules and found Polly. Everything from the meet and greet to the walking, Polly was punctual, trustworthy and my girl was happy to see her. Do not hesitate to use Polly for any dog services she provides. Thank you Polly!”

Alexander M.

“Eliana goes above and beyond! My pup got into my hamper of clothes and I saw it on the dog camera so I reached out to her after his walk and she was so kind and went back to move the crate so he couldn’t get to my clothes! She saved my leggings!!! She’s amazing”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I’m currently transitioning into trade school Friday–Sunday, which means I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to your pets! I’m available Monday through Thursday for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your furry (or scaly!) family members. I love building routines with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away! For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.

We have a fenced yard as well as a nearby dog park. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe. Our house is comfortable and we can care for your pet!

About: I have always been in the childcare and education field, and the last few years has brought me to the world of dog sitting! Dogs tend to become very comfortable with me right away! I wake up early for walks, and your pup will receive about 3 per day, including lots of ball and toy tosses and tons of love and attention! I live in a condo with a spacious living room for plenty of play and to keep crates and beds. Walks are always leashed. Pups are allowed on the couch and in bed. Snuggles are very important!
