Dog Walking Duncan

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover, self-appointed professional cat whisperer, and firm believer that every pet deserves VIP treatment while you’re away! I volunteer at SCRAPS Animal Shelter, so I’m used to everything from cuddle bugs to “don’t look at me” gremlins. At home, I’m proudly managed by my 13-year-old cat, Mr. Meowgi, who runs the household with an iron paw. Whether your pet wants playtime, snuggles and snacks, or just someone to admire them from a far, I’ve got it covered! Don’t worry, your plant babies will get some love too! 🌱 I have a flexible schedule which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I’m available all throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, playtime, snuggles, and keeping your pet’s normal routine on track. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own while respecting their home, routine, and boundaries. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, litter boxes, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else that keeps them happy and comfortable. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos so you know your fur baby is in good hands!

“Sophia is the best!! She takes such good care of my pups and she is so helpful, especially with last minute requests! She is my go-to dog sitter!”

“Brittany is very nice. She asked a lot of questions about Micah. Micah really enjoyed his walk and now he’s wore out. Brittany came over last minute which I really appreciate and Micah really liked her. I will definitely be using her again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats, including my own, for as long as I can remember. I have trained my pets as well as other's in basic obedience. I like to study dog psychology and I have a bachelor's degree in psychology. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from tiny-huge and fearful-calm temperaments. My favorite breeds to care for are large breeds, most specifically breeds like pitties, mastiffs, and dobermans, but I love all dog breeds too and love how every dog has their own unique personality. I've also cared for cats doing volunteer work and have 2 of my own. I'm currently available anytime of the week all year besides the few times per year that I travel. I am working to potentially have a career with dogs. For care in the client's home, I will do whatever is instructed to me to be done for the pet. I am good at reading dog body language and understanding their needs. I've cared for fearful/avoidant dogs and hyper/clingy dogs alike. I am not able to provide care in my own home since I live with family and own 2 rescue cats.

“Friendly, professional, communicative, and prompt! My pup was happy and I enjoyed the report cards. Will definitely be booking with Julia next time I work late”

About: Almost a year ago I lost my first Goldendoodle baby, Riley. He was my best friend, I know how important animals are to their people and will treat your baby like my best friend! I recently got a new Goldendoodle puppy who is very chill, great with kids, and other dogs and loves to play. I am a substitute teacher so I can pick and choose my schedule but do often work during the school day. We have a fenced back yard and a dog door! I have experience with senior dogs and giving medicine, I also have experience with puppies. I have 3 young kids, ages 5-9, who are amazing with animals and love to help me take care of them! I’d love to take care of your fur baby! I am a substitute teacher during the year and can pick and choose the days I work. I often am working during the school day but we have a dog door and a fenced yard. I love the outdoors and going on walks. My kids will usually be with with and they love animals as well. I will come to your home and show your animal all the love while you are away. I will take them for walks and give them lots of pets and snuggles and send you updates. If your animal is at my house we will treat them as one of our own. Take them on walks, give them lots of pets and snuggles and will send picture updates.

About: I believe that like people, meeting dogs where they're at and fulfilling their individual needs is so important. I have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments, from high energy buddies to low energy love-bugs and everything in between. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, shy, avoidant dogs, and dogs with aggressive behavioural tendencies. Every dog deserves love, affection, and care, and I can't wait to meet yours! Currently, my availability is wide. So, I have plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pups. My schedule is flexible and I care for pets throughout Spokane. Every dog is different, and it can be stressful to some when their humans are away. I believe that making sure they are relaxed, happy, and comfortable is key. I look forward to getting to know and spend time with your dog!

“Danielle is a life saver. Five days after major surgery I lost the help I had for my dog, Hammy. I randomly selected and messaged Danielle from Rover. She responded immediately, showed up the next day, and walked Hammy every day from then until I was strong enough to do it myself. Danielle even offered to pick things up from the store for me as I was recovering. She was kind and gentle with both Hammy and me. (: I highly recommend Danielle. She is a genuinely good human.”

About: I've always had dogs in my family, including several rescue dogs which has been super rewarding. My husband and I were fortunate to be able to retire early but we are both very active. I wanted to spend my time doing something productive that I love and caring for dogs is the perfect fit! I believe that every dog deserves to be valued and loved. I limit the dogs I board to a maximum of 5 dogs at a time in order to ensure that each dog will get proper care and attention (with the exception of over holidays when I will book up to 10 dogs) I don't work outside of the home. If I need to run an errand or go shopping, my husband is typically home to care for them. Dogs are rarely left alone, but if they are, it is for no longer than 2 to 3 hours. When the weather is nice, we keep the sliding door open so that the dogs can hang out indoor or outdoors, wherever they feel most comfortable. During the colder months we let the dogs out every two to four hours. We don't crate dogs unless that's what they're used to. We allow dogs on our furniture and in our bed. Dog sitting is my full time profession. I do not work outside the home and I'm available to board dogs 7 days a week 24 hours a day! My yard is fully fenced and dog proof. I have a friendly Chihuahua mix named Rudy who loves to hang out and play with other dogs.

“Great dog walkers. Give detailed information from the walk. Easy to work with. Very nice people.”

“Audrey did a great job with Tommy, even after he decided not to eat during her first day with him. (It’s not unusual behavior on his part.) She did a great job in keeping us informed and working through food options, one of which eventually worked. She was calm under pressure.”

“Lifesaver! I’m so glad I found Vanessa, I would absolutely recommend to take care of your fur baby. Vanessa has taken care of my little man multiple times and helped me out last minute which I’m super appreciative for.”
