Dog Walkers in Dryden, NY

“Noah took fantastic care of Mahler! He proactively inquired about ways he could help train him during the walks, and communication with him was effortless. Noah's experience with high-energy puppies was reassuring and gave me peace of mind that Mahler was in good hands!”

“Vanessa does a great job with Riley, who always looks forward to her walks with someone else than me, who lets her wander & sniff to her heart’s delight.”

“Ellie loves her outings with Nichole and I love knowing she is with someone I can trust to take care of her like she was her own pup! Nichole’s daughters are great with Ellie, too. :)”

About: I grew up with big dogs and currently have an 11-year-old black lab mix. I know how to get a puppy to go outside, and I know how to stimulate a senior dog that can't go on long walks. I would love to meet your dog and make them as comfortable as they can be! Your dog will be spending a great deal of time with me and Brisco, as we're both home during the workday! We like to go on long walks in the middle of the day and hang out outside enjoying the sunshine. We have a great deal of space for the dog to walk around inside, and a fenced in backyard for them to explore. We also have access to a creek in the 14 acre Christmas tree farm behind our home, where they can go on long walks on a leash with us and Brisco!

“Lorie graciously responded to my last minute dog-walking request. She was on time, listened to all my concerns and instructions, and she kept me updated with adorable photos! My larger dog can be a bit difficult to focus on walks, but Lorie had no problem taking her out. She clearly has experience with all kinds of canines given how adeptly she handled my two very different pups. I'm incredibly happy I was able to find Lorie because it's not every day I trust someone with my dogs. I fully intend on using her services again in the future and I can't recommend her enough!”

“Georgia is one of the best dog walker/sitters I have ever worked with (and having had animals my entire adult life I have worked with quite a few!). One of my dogs is very fearful of people and Georgia was so patient and thoughtful in developing rapport with her that she is now able to put on Grace's halter, which is something only I could do in the past. Georgia also sends regular updates and pictures, which I really, really appreciate. Thank you, Georgia!”

About: I have had 3 puppies in the past 3 years and one elderly, sickly dog that I help take care of, and watch a family friend's dogs, by walking and feeding them whenever they need me to as they take multiple trips throughout the year. Very flexible as watching pets is something I do on a daily basis with all 8 of my dogs requiring attention. My schedule also fits the needs of future clients and what special needs they may insist on. I would go directly to my clients home's in order to keep their dogs in a safe and comfortable environment to walk, feed and watch them as needed.

“Amazing.”

“David is the kind of dog walker/ sitter you hope find. He is skilled and compassionate with the dogs. He has won over our pandemic pup in record time. He will be house/pet sitting for us Labor Day weekend and we feel good about leaving our dogs- and our house in his hands.”

“Kait is awesome!! I am a teacher and she is always available when I have to stay after for work to walk Rue. She noticed she had goopy eyes and gave her a warm compress as well as took awesome photos! I don’t trust many with my fur baby; but I highly recommend Kait!! Thank you!!”

“Alexandra is amazing with animals. She has watched my dog more than once and is very responsible. She will take care of your pet like it is hers. She is a very reliable and she will take great care of your pet(s).”

“Courtney has been a great friend to my pet Fred Astaire and many others I know. She is reliable, trustworthy friendly, pet loving and always arrives with a smile!”

“Genel was amazing to our dogs. She was able to meet them before taking them out for a walk. It is a huge piece of mind to have our dogs looked after when we can’t be there.”

“David has cared for my two Yorkies that are diabetic several times and is passionate about animals, empathetic with people. He is professional and just a good sole with a great sense of humor”

About: I have fed, walked, trained, groomed, and medicated family and friends' pets since I was 10 years old. I took a vet assistant course in highs school and have worked as a veterinary assistant and technician since 2020. I have my own small zoo at home made up of birds, mice, aquatics, a cat, and even some insects! I have a passion for animal welfare and am always doing research to provide my pets the best quality of life. I currently work full-time on weekdays but am available before 7AM after 4PM for quick drop-ins for things like potty breaks. My weekends are usually free starting on Friday evenings after 3PM. I am very careful to check my surroundings for anything that may cause harm to an animal or be an escape hazard. I make sure to ask pet owners about where their pet may require extra attention/supervision and their pets habits. I prefer to keep pets in their known surroundings to prevent further stress while pet sitting, but if needed, I may be able to care for certain animals in my own home. I have a cat, but she is well-behaved and NEVER alone with other animals, nor left in a situation in which she can harm or be harmed.

“Ruth is a fabulous dog walker! She is knowledgeable about dogs and clearly cares about animals. She also pays attention to details and is conscientious, reliable, trustworthy, and responsible. I cannot recommend her more highly! :)”

“Absolutely wonderful to work with, and so good with my dog!”

“Dawn is definitely a dog lover. She was able to coax my anxious dog outside to walk and do his business. She is reliable and a good communicator. 5 stars!”

“Kylie has an amazing way with my pets! We absolutely love our pets like children, so we are VERY PARTICULAR when it comes to caring for them. Kylie is a very responsible, reliable and caring dog sitter! I would not hesitate to recommend her. She takes such great care of my pets while I am on vacation, it makes me feel like my pets are having a vacation too! ”

About: I have taken care of furry friends of neighbors, friends and family for about 10 years. I just recently moved to Iowa from New York after just graduating with my animal science degree from Cornell University and worked in a veterinary clinic for the last three years before moving! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions! Hi! For house sitting: I prefer NOT to stay at your house at night but am happy to hang out with your pets throughout the day. However, here is my schedule for most of my clients: feed/play/take out around 6-7am, let them out between noon-1pm, feed/play/take out around 5-6pm, and let them out between 9-10pm again. Although this is the scheduled I follow, I would love to know your schedule with your pets and will try to accommodate them as best as I can! For Boarding: Your pup(s) will join into my family and interact with my two friendly dogs. There is a bell on the door so they can ring it to go out (if trained to do so). I hike almost everyday with my own dogs and typically take any dog that is boarding with me along. I also have a large fenced in back yard for the dogs to play all day! My dogs are rarely left alone but when they are, they are crated and I ask that dogs staying with me are also crate trained. All dogs that I board are introduced slowly to my own personal dogs and are closely watched until I feel it is safe for them all to be together. Please let me know if your dog has any type of food/toy aggression before hand so I can accommodate! Drop Off/Pick up is between 6:30-7:30am and 6-8pm the day of. Please reach out with any questions! For drop-ins/house sitting: I am happy to keep your pets on their schedule as best as I can weather that be keeping them in a crate during the day/at night or letting them roam free in the house, ect. I am willing to do anything that keeps your pets happy and stress free while you are away including walks, hikes, playing fetch, or just hanging out on the couch! PLEASE READ THE SCHEDULE THAT I FOLLOW IN THE TYPICAL DAY SECTION! For Boarding: I have two of my own dogs that are friendly so your dog will just become a part of my small pack while you are away. I hike almost everyday with my own dogs and typically take any dog that is boarding with me along.
