Dog Walking Downtown

“I cannot thank Chelsea enough for coming to my rescue again last minute. I have been struggling with health issues and she is so understanding and willing to help me with my baby. My dog gets so excited to see her! Thank you so much Chelsea!”

“Gretchen was great! She was communicative, and gave lots of updates on how each walk went with Chase. I would highly recommend booking with Gretchen.”

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs from puppies to senior dogs since I was around 10 years old! I have worked with shy and anxious dogs, as well as super high energy friends! I have experience walking dogs, house sitting, and more! I am passionate about animals and dedicated to providing top-notch care for your furry family member. I am currently a student but my class schedule is very flexible with only one class per day and am willing to work around your needs! While watching your dog at your home, I will continue to keep your dog in their routine and make them comfortable even when you are not there with them! I know every single pet is different and has different needs. I am ready to dive right in and help your dog in any way that you may need!

“Kristin was AMAZING! Honestly it was our first time using Rover and it was literally so calming and easy with her. She went above and beyond and really took care of the details that Sly needed! She’s kind and funny, and you can really trust her. We WILL be using her again, and are so thankful for her!”

“I have been using Andrea and Edwin for awhile now and they are so wonderful to work with. I usually request them when I have to have my boyfriend’s dog with me for extended days, but they are still sending me pictures of my cat who wasn’t part of the request. They are efficient in communication and flexible in timing and if something comes up. Highly recommend them for your pet needs!”

“Avery is fabulous! My puppy just adores her!”

About: Hi, I'm McGivney! My passion for animal care started all the way back in the 5th grade when I landed my first pet-sitting job letting out a neighbor's dog. Throughout my childhood, I continued looking after pets for my neighbors, building a reputation for being reliable, attentive, and caring. ​Today, I work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). In my professional life, I love developing deep, trusting relationships with people, and I bring that exact same dedication, patience, and meticulous attention to detail when caring for animals. Because of my medical background, I am incredibly comfortable following strict care schedules, following complex routines, and administering oral medications precisely. ​I truly love all creatures! Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals, including fish, bearded dragons, geckos, frogs, and snakes. Whether your pet has fur, scales, or fins, I am super comfortable meeting their unique needs and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and properly looked after. ​I live in a comfortable, clean 700 sq. ft. apartment and strictly host only one cat or dog client family at a time to guarantee your pet gets my undivided attention and a stress-free environment. I can't wait to meet your animals and provide you with absolute peace of mind while you are away! Because I work in healthcare, my daily schedule varies, which actually makes me highly adaptable! No matter what my day looks like, your pet's established routine is my top priority. A typical day of care includes structured feeding times, plenty of fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and dedicated one-on-one attention. I love staying active, so if I am walking or drop-sitting a dog, we will go on fun neighborhood walks and have plenty of playtime. If I am sitting a cat or a reptile, I focus on spending quality, calm time with them, respecting their space, and keeping their environment clean and secure. Pet parents can expect absolute reliability, clear communication, and total peace of mind. I know how stressful it can be to leave your family member with someone new, so I send daily photo updates and quick text check-ins after every visit or walk. My home is a clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. Safety and trust are the absolute core of my pet-sitting philosophy. Coming from a CNA background, I am professionally trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, monitor well-being, and maintain a highly organized, clean environment. When pets are in my 700-square-foot apartment, they enjoy a calm and securely enclosed space. To ensure maximum safety and a stress-free environment, I enforce a strict policy of only hosting one dog or cat family at a time—your pet will never be forced to share space with another strange cat or dog. Out on walks, your dog's safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs securely attached to standard, heavy-duty leashes (I never use unpredictable retractable leashes) and maintain complete awareness of our surroundings to avoid any tense interactions with off-leash neighborhood dogs. For small animals, reptiles, and cats, I ensure all enclosures are double-checked and entry doors are tightly secured before anyone is let out for supervised stretching or play. I treat your pets with the same high level of protective care and responsibility I use every day in my healthcare career.

About: I have taken care of many family and friends dogs. I treat them like they’re mine own. I go out of my way to make them feel happy. I’m retired so my days and evenings are open to care for your pets. My hours are very flexible. Time with your pet will be the best part of my day. I love to walk, so your dog will get as much walking in as he or she wants. Their schedule will be my schedule. There are lots of dogs in my neighborhood, so your fur baby will meet new friends.

About: I've cared for and loved family pets (beagle, staffy, and pit) all my life, but as a young adult living in an apartment away from home, I'm looking to befriend some local canine pals! Play, walking, cuddles, and parks: I want to leave pets happy and ready for their nap!! I'm currently working a part-time research position, with free time to care for your pets! I am unable to board animals, but my flexibility allows for check-ins throughout the day! My time with your pet will be for active engagement and physical monitoring, responsive to their needs. I'm happy to have short meetings to ensure fit and want to collaborate to optimize your pet's care.

“Ashley is amazing & is so flexible with my last minute walk requests. She's so patient with Ripley; even taught him how to shake with his other paw. 💜”

About: I love animals and am committed to giving them enriching lives. While your pet is in my care, you can expect them to play a variety of brain-engaging games, eat out of puzzle feeders, and receive undivided love and affection! I work a very flexible job that allows me to fit in walks and drop-in visits whenever needed. There are no times that are too early or too late for my schedule! I will follow any procedures and protocols you have put in place for your pet. Your pet's routine is important to me and them! Animals thrive off of routine, so I will follow any directions you give to the letter.

About: I grew up with pets my whole life. My family and friends have relied on me walk, feed, and house/dog sit when they are unavailable. My dog MJ, who passed in 2020, made one of the biggest impacts in my life, and if I can give more care and love to animals it would be very fulfilling. I am comfortable around pets of all ages, and will cater to each animals needs. It is always my aim to adore your pet as much as you do! My job is mostly remote and I do make my own schedule. So I will be able to easily cater to your pet care needs. I will respect your pets boundaries and cater to their needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved. All pets are different, and require different ways of caring for.

“Alexus came early to play with Milo. She was very friendly and communicative. She left so many photos and expressed that showed her amazing work with my dog. She was amazing!!”

About: I’ve dealt with almost any kind of cat or dog from sick kittens that needed fostering, to old dogs in need of medication. I love all pets! I am available any day or time of the week! I am a full time college student but I am only required on campus for tests, so you need something I’m there! Any special needs I am okay taking care of! Playtime and stimulation is important to me and for any pets’ wellbeing. I welcome all ages and sizes of pets.

About: I just love all pets. With 2 of my own, I can't adopt any more, but I want to share the love with as many friends as possible! I'm currently working part-time in the mornings. Free afternoons leave me plenty of time to give your pups all the time and attention they deserve! As someone who loves to stay active, I am ready for long (or short) walks wherever your pet desires. Slow or fast pace is all the same to me. The pups are boss!

About: I have a Siberian Husky and we love to travel and go on adventures! I love going on walks and wouldn’t mind having another furry friend to join us! I live in a house with 2 female dogs (my husky and my roommates pitbull) along with one kiddo who also loves animals as well! Prefer to meet and greet in advance if you book your animal to stay at my house. I work full time at a bank most days. I wake up in the mornings to let my dogs out and feed them and then they free roam the house during the day. When I get home at night I feed them again and take them out for walks or to the lake or dog park to run free and have fun with other dogs! I have a small yard that is not fenced in where my dogs get placed on a leash to do their business. They get let out multiple times a day between my roommate and myself. I also have a kennel for if your pet needs it during the day when nobody’s home.

“Mikaela is very personable and friendly! I trust her entirely with my pup; you can tell she really cares about dogs of all kinds. Also, she is reliable and coordinates if she has a change in schedule. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for family friends for years. My girlfriend and I love meeting new fur babies and getting to play with them! I work 1:30 to 5:30 every week day at the bank! Olivia works 2 to 8 usually but other than that we like to watch tv and go on walks so we will be at the house often!! I send photos of pets and make sure the owner is at ease for the whole time we are there! I am very responsive to texts if there are any issues/updates. I am comfortable with kenneling dogs at night or having them sleep on the bed!

About: I have taken care of my own personal animals for about 6 years now (hence the years of experience), but I have also taken care of many other animals before living on my own! I have had experience giving diabetes medication to cats before (injection). I also have experience giving pills, ointments, and eye drops! I have no college classes during the summer, but I do have a part-time job that is extremely flexible and I can go work when I want to within a certain time frame of days. I am very communicative so just let me know if I need to stay the night, how often I need to be at your home, etc… and I can work with anything! :-) I cannot house any pets unfortunately at my place, however I can make as many visits or keep as much company with your fur babies as needed!

About: Lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like my own! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your furry best friend’s in good hands. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and love giving them a safe, happy space because they deserve the best! 💕🐕 I just recently graduated so I have a completely open availability for walks, check ins, or to just keep your pets some company while you’re away! I’m currently available mon-thurs at any time! For Fridays-Sundays I’m available anytime before 4pm, as I usually have work after 5 on weekends, I’m looking forward to filling my free time keeping company to your animals! I always treat pets (and their homes!) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I make sure doors are locked, routines are followed, and your furry friend stays safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.
