About: Hi! I’m Alexandra. My husband and I have been dog sitting for several years and love providing a loving home away from home for our furry guests. We have a fully fenced yard where our dogs and their doggy friends can run, play and enjoy extra company safely. I’m a full-time dog walker during the week with the flexibility and time to give your pup the care they deserve. I previously worked at a veterinary clinic and have volunteered with various animal rescue organizations. I have experience with many breeds and personalities, ensuring each dog gets individualized attention. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We do not have children, so dogs who prefer a child-free environment are always welcome here.

I can’t recommend Sam enough! We’ve booked her for recurring weekly walks, and she’s been fantastic every time. She’s very responsive, reliable, and always sends updates with photos after each walk, which we really appreciate. She handles our energetic black lab with ease, and he always comes back happy and tired. Highly recommend Sam for dog walking or sitting!

Sarah was awesome at accommodating a last min walk and was so sweet with my pup. She asked great questions and was nice enough to leave out fresh water for my dog when she left. We look forward to having Sarah help again soon!

Great with communication! Lucy agreed to my last minute booking and was kind enough to make a meet and greet happen given tight schedules. My plans fell through last minute so I no longer needed her service, but I would absolutely try again!

About: I have been around dogs my entire childhood, and I have had three of my own throughout my life. I grew up training, walking, cleaning, and playing with dogs every day. I have a flexible schedule and would be happy to make house visits! I am an athlete with different training each day, so I can be pretty flexible with my availability throughout the week. I am generally available on week nights and can check in on your dog multiple times each day. I can care for your dog by letting them outside during your preferred times, taking them for walks, cleaning them, and playing with them. I am able to work with multiple dogs as well!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, routine, and personality to make sure they are comfortable and happy. I am reliable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine as a student because I keep a consistent schedule and have dedicated time before and after classes for walks, visits, and feeding. I’m also usually more flexible on weekends, which allows me to spend extra time with pets. Since I enjoy being around animals and staying active, taking care of pets is something that easily fits into my day. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, taking them on walks, and making sure they get plenty of playtime and attention. I also make sure they have a clean, safe, and calm environment where they can feel relaxed. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they need extra exercise, quiet time, or lots of affection, and I always keep owners updated so they know their pet is in good hands.

Emma-Claire was an excellent dog walker, she was very responsive from the start, responsible, followed all my direction on how to get access to the house, put the harness on and kept our two doggies happy and safe. She sent us photos of the walk, we felt that they were in good hands. Will definitely recommend her to others and plan on using her again.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My pets are integrated into everything I do on a daily basis providing consistency, patience, and pure love and affection, not just supervision. I go beyond basic sitting by creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, understood and genuinely at home. I currently work part-time, so have plenty of time to walk and play with your dog. When I am at work, I bring my dog with me and have the flexibility to do that with yours as well. I routinely walk with my pup up to 3 miles a day. Although I do not have a fenced yard, I do have over 20 acres of conservation land adjacent to my home. My pups are rarely left alone, and usually have the run of our first floor. If you need crating, we can arrange that as well.
