Dog Walking Drexel-Alvernon

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.

“Logan is so attentive to your pet! He trimmed my dogs nails when they were too long and I really appreciated him going out of his way to make sure my baby was comfortable while I was away.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a dog in my life. I have had many years of experience watching and taking care of mine and others dogs. I have watched my family’s and close friends dogs many times throughout the years. I have dog sitted and had multiple doggy sleepovers up to a month before. I have watched dogs as small as Chihuahuas all the way up to German Shepherds. There is no task I can’t handle! (: I can’t wait to meet your baby and becoming their new friend! I m currently unemployed and have more than most my time available for dog care. I spend most my time with my own dogs and or family members and friends. I have a great back yard where dogs can run around and feel safe. I am pretty minimal when it comes to furniture but do have plenty of room for dogs to lay around. I wash all couch covers twice a week, sweep & vacuum everyday, and mop as needed. I am very big on keeping poop cleaned up and making sure things are cleaned up regularly like toys or trash that might be out. Bathroom doors stay closed and cleaning supplies are locked up.

“Azul loves Rachel she walks at her pace and Rachel is very responsible. Azul seems happy when she comes back home and when Rachel comes to pick her up for her walk Azul is very happy.”

About: I am a recent graduate from Colorado State University majoring in Animal Sciences and minoring in Zoology. During my time completing my undergrad I have had many opportunities taking care of dogs and cats for clients up in Northern Colorado. I am very detail oriented and attentive to my care for your fur babies. I also am known to be a great dog walker and have had some experience handling medication for cats and dogs. I am currently looking for work right now but I have a lot of time to be able to care for your animals as you are busy during the day and providing them company! I currently am living in an apartment so I can’t provide boarding services but I do have reliable transportation that’ll allow me to visit homes and check up on your animals during the day!

“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”

About: I have been around animals large and small my whole life. Vet tech experience for over 10 years and very comfortable with all animals in every stage of their life I am dedicated to Rover and my clients to ensure that routines and schedules for all pets can be accommodated. Willing to be flexible with schedule and pets needs to make sure that each visit is a fun and positive experience I have experience with animals of all sizes and stages in life to ensure safety, care, and comfort. Always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that our fur babies are comfortable and stress free

About: I grew up with dogs and had cats as pets as an adult. I love both dogs and cats (and all animals) but have the most experience with these two. I can do dog walks, grooming for both dogs and cats, drop ins for feeding, bathroom and any other needs, overnight stays and longer term stays if needed! Please note: I'm happy to travel for meet & greets and bookings, but for locations more than 15 miles from me will include a travel fee due to distance and fuel costs. Please message prior to booking if you are outside this range. Thanks for understanding - it helps me keep providing reliable care for clients. Same-day requests may also incur an additional fee depending on availability. *Lastly* if you see any dates on my calendar that looked blocked off (especially if they're highlighted in yellow) you can still reach out to see if you're close enough for me to do drop in visits! Dates highlighted in yellow just mean I have another booking but I'm still able to fit in drop in visits! 😊 I work remotely so I'm more flexible, esp if I'm doing any daytime or overnight stays. I work 7 am-4 pm M-F and can easily step away from my job as needed. I'm gentle, safe, reliable, intuitive and quick to pick up on how animals are feeling. I also take into consideration any special needs animals may have.

About: I have experience taking care of boarding dogs and cats at an animal hospital. I worked for them for a little over a year and have gotten lots of experience with dogs and cats. I used to raise puppies and train them how to sit and have manners for about two years with my parent. I have dog sitting experience and house sitting experience. I am currently going to school at the UofA full time during the weekdays (my class schedule is listed below keep reading) and would be available most days to come and play with the animals for 30 minutes to an hour in the afternoons and overnight sitting. And on weekends I would be free to play with and walk the animals as needed. Class schedule: Mon 1pm-2pm Tue 9:30am-1pm then 3pm-5pm Wed 9am-2pm then 4pm-5pm Thur 9:30am-4pm Fri 1pm-2pm I do also have a job at the animal shelter for part time. That work schedule will vary but will be no more the 4-6 hours a day. Likely to be on the weekends to avoid conflict with school :) For my personal home, I will not be able to board any pets. Although I am very safe and responsible. My person pet uses a crate just for her safety when I am gone. I am good with crate training as needed for your pets as well. I make sure I clean up after every day and leave the house as clean as I can before you arrive back home to your happy animals!

About: I have a little one (chiweenie, 5 years) and take care of my mom's two (shitzu, mix terrier) when she goes out of town. Chalupa hangs with her cousins during the day and enjoys my mom's home. I enjoy walking, playing, feeding, and caring for dogs (teeth brush/brush/shower/etc.). Would love to go above and beyond for you and yours while you are out of town or need some extra help. I am currently a post-graduate student who is looking for additional opportunities to get ahead on loans. I go to the gym and park in my free time, usually 3-4 hours a day. I can transport large or small dogs if desired; I have a hatchback SUV, two small boxes for dogs to sit leashed in the car, or can have small dog on my lap while I drive - something I often do with Chalupa. I would prefer not to leave the house in a vehicle unless the dog park is a part of your routine and you have a crate I can transport larger dogs in. I am new to the service and if you are reading this you would be my first client. I would follow your instructions and might bother you with a question or two. I would send you photo updates and text check in 1x a day in the morning. More if desired, I don't want to bother you on your vacation.

“Matt is very professional and great with my dogs! I will definitely be a repeat customer for regular walks.”

“Thomas does such a great job with both my high energy pup and her older sis! You can see the love he has for what he does. The pups are excited for his arrival every morning and ready for naps by the time he brings them back. Best decision ever 😁”

About: Ever since I was 13. Family, friends, neighbors, teachers, and doctors. Would allow me to take care and potty train their fur babies. I would either house/dog sit or take the babies for walks, hikes, or to dog parks to have fun. I have been an intern at a Ver clinic for 5 months now and want to pursue in Vet med. I am going into my freshman year of college to play soccer. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and love to exercise. I have a big backyard with lots of space for your and my dog to run and have fun, with a pool if your dog likes to cool off during the hotter months. I also have an area to crate your dog either inside or outside my house. If I am at your home. I make sure if there isn’t anything the dog cannot chew on is put away and that all outdoor escapes are closed off.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and horses, so caring for pets isn’t just a job, it’s truly my passion. I just lost my senior dog, which means I understand how much your furry family member means to you. I specialize in caring for anxious pets and know how to create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. Before every stay I love to do a meet and greet, so your pet and I can get acquainted before you leave. My mornings are completely free, so your pet gets walks, playtime and plenty of cuddles to start the day. I’m available both weekdays and weekends and communicate as often as you’d like, expect lots of photos and updates! I follow your pet’s existing routine and your instructions to the letter, from feeding schedules to medication administration to emergency protocols. Your rules, your way.

About: I’m open to last minute bookings. I’ve been petsetting since I was very young for all types of dogs, cats, etc. with various needs. Pets are family, and I intend to treat your pets as my own. I am fully available during the week and on weekends. I must stop at home periodically to care for my own cat. I can also do overnights. Early/late hours are good as well. Here to keep pets accompanied, occupied, cared for, loved, and respected by walking, playing, feeding, reenforcing training, snuggling, being present with and administering any required medication for the furry ones.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little. We had some family friends that always brought their dogs over and I took care of them. I knew a lot of people that traveled for work were just traveled in general and I would either have their dog at my house or I would go over there and I would take care of their dogs. I’m currently going to only be doing mornings from 7 AM to 1 PM this will be for Monday thru Friday. This would be a perfect time frame, I’m a mother and had to work around that schedule. I have a fence. I have a pitbull that is not a normal pitbull. He is very sweet very loving and very caring. He’s 8 years old and loves to climb 10 foot fences, and loves lizards and squirrel. I always make sure to take my dog on rides and get him his own little pup cup! ❤️

“We have been working with Sofia for two weeks now and she’s been very easy to work with, she shows up on time and goes straight to working with my dog, she sends me great pictures and updates me on progress and daily activity on our dog behavior and her personal breaks, I would recommend Sofia to anyone looking for a nice and caring person to walk your dog, glad to have found her and really appreciate her time she spends working with our dog!”

About: What sets me apart is my professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I manage multiple dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments daily. This hands-on role has trained me to expertly read pet body language, prioritize safety, and confidently care for both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets. I also provide dedicated drop-in care for cats, ensuring your feline friends get the precise feeding, litter box maintenance, and attention they need. I am highly comfortable reinforcing training commands, managing leash pullers, and following strict care routines. With my professional background, you can rest assured your dogs and cats will be safe, happy, and well-loved! I am a college student and have a part-time job but can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening walks. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a longer adventure, I’m happy to fit walks into my routine to keep them happy and active! Safety is my top priority on every walk. I always stay aware of my surroundings and follow any special instructions from pet owners. I make sure dogs stay in safe areas, avoid hazards, and get the right amount of exercise based on their needs. Trust and comfort are key, so I take the time to make each dog feel at ease while ensuring they have a fun and safe experience.
