Dog Walking Douglas

“The dogs loved Kristie and came back from their walks/romps tired and smiling. After their first walk with her they were eager to get into her car again the next day.”

About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I am currently a stay at home mom with my five year old son. My availability is very open especially going into the summer months. Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.

About: Hi! I'm Sami, and I am THRILLED to meet your loved one. ME AS A SITTER: My number one priority while caring for your loved one is their comfort. I believe having patience and allowing your pet to make the first move is important when first establishing a routine or any sort of bond. Anything you or your loved one needs for our time together, I'm there for it all! I have always had a passion for animals and find it an absolute blessing to spend time with any and all. WHAT I CAN DO: I am comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. This includes pets that need medication, special dietary restrictions, or even pets that don't like to be too close but just need a little company- I'm just happy to meet your pet no matter what they need! MY PET BACKGROUND: I have experience housesitting with dogs/cats for up to a week. In this time, I maintained the house, watered plants, fed both cats and dogs, took care of trash and mail, etc. My family has had up to 8 dogs at once, ranging from puppy to senior. Now, we currently have 3 dogs and even a pet rabbit. I found a passion for training pets/encouraging good behavior, which led me to teach my pup tricks like roll over, bang bang, dance, etc., and we both loved every minute! We also took in a stray feral cat (was stuck in a car hood, long story), and for the past few months I have successfully worked hard to make a connection and bond with her! I do also help care for the cat in my home in Indiana. I have given pets medication many times, including wound care, vet visits, and special feeding instructions. I currently work part-time at a restaurant, with my shift typically starting at 3pm. My schedule does tend to shift around, but on days I do work, I am flexible with when I can watch your loved one and am willing to visit as much as possible before and after work. However, when I'm not working, I am more than happy to spend as much time with your pet as possible/wanted. While in your home, I will be around your pet 24/7, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I love playing with pets but can also enforce rules and regulations set up for your pet with ease. I can handle crating, leashing, feeding, picking up messes, and more. If housesitting, I am happy to assist in pickup and general house upkeep, including trash night, collecting mail, dusting, etc.

“I was out of town for a week and Sarah really went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were taken care of! She took them on daily walks and spent time with them at the dog park, and kept me well informed on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend Sarah to watch your fur babies!”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life! I absolutely love teaching them tricks, playtime and daily exercise. Quality care to keep happy pets! I have ton of free time to check up and play with your furry companions! I pick up what I can when I’m not working! :) I work hard to make sure your pets comfort and care comes first. Prioritizing their safety while having fun! And always treating pets like family!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a young girl, about 20 years now! I’m honored to meet new animals and gain their trust, showing them love, kindness, and fun! Animals really are so important to me, I’m a devout vegetarian and animal-advocate, with hopes to open a no-kill rescue in the future for all types of animals. I am a graduate student who works part time from home. My weekly routine is flexible and ready to fit your needs! Whatever works for you! I’ll care for your pet like my own. I go on long walks, know how to train dogs, and can take care of special needs.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I also started working as a dog walker/ “adopter” when I was 9 years old. A local dog store teamed with the harbor humane society to help get dogs adopted in saugatuck over the weekends. And I was the one to care for them and try to find them a home! We placed over 200 dogs and kept them until they found a home! I myself have a dog, 5 chickens and a cat. All of whom I love dearly! Unfortunately my dog doesn’t play well with others so I need to get my new pet fix outside of my home. I currently work full time so it would be difficult for me to tend to my own pets and others during the week days. But weekends are wide open! I wake up (my dog wakes me up) around 6 most days, feed and let everyone out and depending on the weather typically stay outside with them all day. Morning and evening feedings and potty breaks every hour or so is standard when I’m home and can’t be outside. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animal behavior so I can easily handle it all! Whether it’s walking a dog that pulls or reacts to squirrels, I have no concerns. I also have personal experience with aggressive pets and pets that don’t stay in the yard. I know from personal experience the importance to follow directions provided by a pet owner.

“Lydia is a very responsible and reliable pet sitter, walker! My pup just loves her and I sure do appreciate her and will always request her first!!”

About: Glacier may not be dog friendly, but I sure am! Though I’m not new to caring for animals, I do need to build up a client base. That’s why my price is so cheap! I have grown up with animals of all kinds my entire life and take pride in the care and compassion I give to animals. I am detail-oriented and knowledgeable about pet body language. I have a flexible work schedule. Let me know what time works best for you and I would love to fit you into my schedule! Existing amongst animals is one of the things that brings me the greatest joy in life. I believe every animal deserves to be happy, safe, and free and lend a lot of time working towards animal liberation.

About: As much as we want to bring our pets everywhere with us sometimes, we can’t. But that shouldn’t mean your pet isn’t living their best life possible. I can check in on your pet for some company, pets and play time, treats, meals, water, and a walk. I can also do anything else they may need. My goal is to give your pet a better day and give you a peace of mind knowing your pet is happy. I grew up on a farm with all animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, and horses. I was in a dog club growing up and learned basic dog training skills. Over the years I’ve cared for puppies and senior dogs needing special assistance and medications. I’ve helped care for multiple animals and hope to have the opportunity to care for yours too. I’m working part time in (human) healthcare. As much as I love people, I want to spend more time with animals on my days off. I work every Monday and Wednesday and am busy Saturday most of the time. My schedule changes once in a while but this is the general availability. I am mostly available morning and afternoon until about 3pm. Please ask for any specific times though anytime and I’ll see if it ends up working out. Thanks! 😊 My goal is to make sure your dog is as well cared for as if you were there yourself. I can do what you request. I can feed, water, potty break, medication administration, play time and pets, or go for a walk. I can leave them out or crate when I leave.

About: Have years of experience working with dogs from puppies to adult ages. Currently a dog mom to a 3 year old golden retriever, can handle energetic dogs I work part-time during the week and have many open weekends for your dog walking and dog sitting needs! I am very active with my own dog and love taking care of others. I plan to ensure all pups are treated with proper care according to their current needs. There is no such thing as too high maintenance in my eyes for dogs, they deserve the best care and I love making them as happy and comfortable as possible.

About: I offer attentive dog walking and care services tailored to your furry friend’s needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or a fun-filled play session, I provide reliable and loving care to keep your pets happy, healthy, and well-exercised. I’m currently in college part-time, so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your dogs, cats, reptiles, or even fish. Pawsitively purrfect care for your furry friends! Caring for animals is my passion and priority. Reach out to me so we can create a customized pet care schedule. I provide comprehensive pet care services, including dog walking, feeding, and engaging playtime sessions. Your pet will receive the attention, exercise, and nourishment they need to thrive.

About: I have my own dog at home and I am always asked to take care of my grandparents dog everytime they're away. I love dogs and always want them to be comfortable in my care. I currently work part time at a custodial company and I babysit at night as well. My work schedule is very flexible, it is a four hour shift and I have time in between then to have a pet care job. I always make sure they have water and food when they need to. I love taking my dog on walks and making sure to take him on bathroom breaks when he needs to. I also make sure to give my cat space when I need to but also play with her when she wants to.

About: I currently work the doggy day camp at Petsmart. I have worked with the Humane Animal Treatment society and Bronston Animal Shelter with socialization and training. I had dogs growing up and trained them and cared for them. I have even walked dogs for the people around my neighborhood. Also, I have a dog of my own. I do have a puppy that is 4 years old, but he is very friendly. I live near a park so the dogs can run/play and I know my puppy would love to join if allowed. I’m currently looking for a job, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. I am available any time of the day. I keep my puppy on a strict schedule. Lots of time to play, go for walks, and training times. I feed him around 9:30 am and 7 pm

“Great job, showed up at time for walk and sent update of walk with pictures. Thanks Taylor!”
