Dog Walking Duskfire II

About: I've had pets all my life. Growing up, my family had dogs, cats and horses. And as an only child, I spent tons of time playing with all those animals! As an adult I've always had either a dog or cat or multiple. We currently have a 4yr old pup who and 5yr old cat, so if we get to have your furry friends over, they'll have a friends to play with, along with my 12yr old son who LOVES animals too :) We can't wait to meet and play with your pets! I currently work from home full time so boarded animals will be cared for all day. Day Care is up to 8hrs per day, dropping off between 7-9am and picking up between 4-6pm. Any additional hours or hours outside of these timeframes will be charged an additional $8/hr. I have a single story home with a large back yard. My neighborhood is great for taking walks as well and has a lot of greenways.

About: Taking care of pets has been a huge part of my life for over 30 years. In addition to caring for my own pets throughout the years, I have helped many friends and family with their pets when they aren’t able to. I know how important it is to provide love, attention and care is for our fur babies. My youngest child has gone off to college so I would love nothing more than to fill my new found time loving and caring for any and all pets. For most of us, our pets are like our children. To our pets, we are their everything. I know how sad it makes me when I have to leave my babies for some reason. Having someone to trust to love and care for them when we can’t is so important.

About: I don’t just watch dogs but I take the time to understand what makes each one feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I’m comfortable with walking, feeding schedules, playtime, basic routines, and giving each dog the individual attention they need. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or a total cuddle bug, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I love spending time with animals and enjoy making time for walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and attention. I’m flexible with my schedule and make it a priority to give every pet the care they deserve. I always make sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away! I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I make sure to stick to their normal routine, keep up with feeding and walks, give them plenty of playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. I also follow any special instructions closely so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

“Ryne is doing dog walking for my dog Katsu. Ryne has been great. Friendly, easy going, and takes Katsu on a good lengthy walk. Really appreciate him.”

“When my dog sees Kayla from the window coming to give her a routine walk, she runs out the doggy door to greet her and is happy to go with her. Kayla is a very responsible sitter and very good with my dog. Kayla believes in positive reinforcement so I feel very comfortable knowing my dog is in good hands.”

About: With over 15 years of experience in animal rescue, I’ve had the privilege of fostering hundreds upon hundreds of dogs, everything from newborn puppies to seniors, as well as dogs with special medical needs. My background has given me extensive hands-on experience with all types of care, including bottle feeding, administering medications, and providing gentle support for elderly or recovering pets Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do, it’s truly my passion. I understand that every dog has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I’m dedicated to making sure each pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule and the ability to be home, which means your pet will get the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, walks, or special care for a senior or medically needy pup, I’m here to provide reliable and compassionate care tailored to your precious family member. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live on a half-acre property with a fully fenced backyard, a separate fenced pool area, and a large grassy space for playtime. While I do have a dog door, all outside time is always supervised, and dogs only go out when they want to. They are never left outside and are never left unattended. Inside, our home is air-conditioned with plenty of cozy dog beds spread throughout the bottom level so each pup can choose their favorite spot to relax. It's a safe, welcoming environment designed to feel just like home!

About: I’ve lived with small dogs to large dogs all of my life. I’ve had experience with puppies and elderly dogs aswell.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily feeding, walking, administering basic medications, bathing, grooming, and maintaining a clean and safe living environment. I am familiar with recognizing common signs of illness or stress and responding calmly and responsibly. I have also provided overnight care, followed special dietary instructions, and ensured pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I currently have a part-time job, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pups. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and loving environment. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can play and exercise securely. At night, dogs are provided with a separate, comfortable sleeping area to ensure they can rest peacefully. I also have two friendly dogs of my own, so visiting dogs will have companionship and opportunities for supervised play. I always monitor interactions closely to make sure all pets feel safe, relaxed, and happy. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I am extremely flexible since I am in a hybrid program for classes, so all of my didactic/classroom work is fully online and accessible from anywhere and anytime! I do work Friday mornings from 8am-12pm and may not be available some weekends since I work every third weekend minimum. Otherwise, I’m completely flexible and will always try to work with you! I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday and have weekends off, so I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop ins, daycare, and weekend sitting.

About: Hello! My name is Emilie and I have been caring for animals my entire life. I received my first dog (a lab) as a birthday gift at 5 years old and loved every minute of it. Since then, our family has gotten two more dogs (another lab and a Lhasa Maltese) and two bunnies. I love animals so much I started working at a veterinary clinic. Here I dealt with a large variety of animals, from ferrets to birds, including dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, needs, and temperaments. I am PetTech (PetSaver) certified and trained in CPR, First aid, and care and can provide the certification upon request. I have an extensive background in administering many different medications (as well as oral vaccines). I also have trained several dogs in the past. Many around me know of my passion for animals, thus being how I became known as the neighborhood animal sitter, sitting nearly a half dozen neighborhood pets alone. I have cared for and pet-sat neighborhood animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and fish for a number of years. I share a deep connection and understanding with every animal I meet, being the reason I am on this app. To spend more time doing what I love- meeting and providing top care for your fur babies. I am self-employed, so I welcome day time drop-in visits requests. I find working with animals to be very rewarding and fulfilling to me. I am looking to set up reoccurring daily and/or weekly pet care. I would love to get to know several animals very well and provide them quality care on a consistent basis. However, I am also open to short term care situations. For any other requests or questions, Please let me know. If you would like pet care for a time that I am not available on my calendar, please contact me to see what we can do. As of now, I do not offer pet care at my house. However, I am open to come to your house to keep your animal relaxed and comfortable in their own home. When at your home, your animal will receive the most exceptional care and treatment possible. I treat everyone's animal as if they are my own. I also treat your home with respect, ensuring I follow your directions as well as clean up after both myself and your pet. If you allow, I would love to spoil your pet with their favorite treats, activities, and mental stimulation/engagement. I enjoy providing picture updates for my clients. I can make just about any time work with a notice in advance. In hopes of doing this nearly full time, I would love to fill my week completely with pet sitting Monday-Friday. Having owned pets as well as having worked at a vet clinic, I prioritize keeping a close eye on each critter I watch. I know how important each individal animal's wellbeing is and how quickly that could change. I feel confident that I am always hyper-aware of animals' saftey and keep the closest eye on them and their health, as I know what to watch for.

“She has a great positive attitude and handled Hank with minimal instruction. I plan to use Kiara regularly.”

“Michelle was fantastic! It was my big puppy’s first time alone, and she adapted the walking schedule to help him feel comfortable, playing with him first and quickly earning his trust. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is my calm, dependable nature and genuine love for kids and pets. I’m attentive, safety-focused, and always strive to create a fun, structured environment. I have experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs, and I’m confident handling various temperaments. I’m also CPR certified and have excellent communication skills, ensuring peace of mind for parents and pet owners alike. Whether it’s keeping kids entertained or caring for pets with patience and love, I bring a positive, reliable presence every time. Pet care is naturally built into my routine. I enjoy starting my day with walks, feeding, and playtime. I make time throughout the day for check-ins, potty breaks, and companionship. Whether it’s daily visits or scheduled stays, I plan ahead to give each pet consistent, loving attention and never overbook, so every animal gets the care they deserve. In both my home and a client’s home, safety and comfort come first. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep environments clean, and avoid unsafe toys or treats. I always secure doors, use leashes properly, and give medications exactly as instructed. I also respect home rules and communicate regularly with updates and photos to build trust and peace of mind.

About: For that “Your experience” section, I’d make it more focused on why someone should trust you as a sitter: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from my dog Spencer, who I had for 11 years, to my one-year-old cat Summit, who I adopted from the Arizona Humane Society. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I could only care for cats because my roommates are comfortable with that.They do take care of themself in a way but I do have school online so it would be easy to watch your cute little fur ball critter! I treat pets with love and understanding. I understand when pets needs to eat and they need to play with their toys. And I enjoy giving them that!

“I have had a great experience with Stephenie. She is completely understanding of my weird unexpected schedule changes and flexible. I have worked on Rover before and the first experience I had with someone was wishy washy so I was concerned about my 2nd but she has absolutely proved me wrong. Very mature to work with.”

About: My kiddo and I will happily provide lots of playtime, including walks and socializing, for your loved one. We both have experience with multiple breeds and are always looking to learn about the preferences and habits of those that are new to us. My kid loves to jog, dance, and tumble with the pups, while I'm more of the snuggling type. We both love long walks and visiting with friends at the dog park. If your sweetie prefers to play without children, I am available solo as well. Whatever your needs, my little family and I are happy to tailor our care to you and yours. You can rest easy knowing we will share our love and tons of fun with your family's best friend!

About: We got our family dog when I was 3! I loved taking her on long walks/bike rides and brushing her hair in the spring. Throughout high school and college, I dog sat for neighbors, family and friends. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work full time with occasional on call hours, but my typical hours end around 2:30pm, giving me plenty of time to spend my afternoon/evening looking after your critters. I do not work weekends, and would love to spend them with a furry friend. In my own home, I like to joke that my cats can tell time because they have a strict routine. I feed and change their water at the same time each day, and they let me know when I’m late, even by 10 minutes! I am diligent about cleaning their litter each day and mar sure they get enough love once all the household chores are done!
