Dog Walkers in Eckford, MI

About: I currently own and care for 3 horses and 2 cats. My elderly dobie was an AKC Canine Good Citizen. Patient and reliable. My nature is friendly and loving to both people and their pets. I have the summer off and school holidays. During the year I’m available from 3:30 PM on. I’m also available weekends and would consider pet, home or farm sitting under mutually agreeable conditions. I’ve trained my last two dogs through Puppy Kindergarten, Obedience and Canine Good Citizen Certification. I’m healthy and can walk your dog up to 3 miles a day.

About: Most of my experience has been from pets of family and friends. I have the upmost respect for animals and love to interact with them as they allow. I have some experiences with special care like food preparation and giving medications, just give some instructions and count on it being done. In my younger years I’ve had experience with caring for birds, although it’s been some time since then, I am fully capable. Hugs and pets are part of my services but only if your animal allows. Currently, I have a flexible schedule and my calendar is typically up to date. I do have an elderly cat which needs special care everyday but i can typically move things around easily. I have 1 cat who need medication 2x a day and has a special diet. I am very flexible with pet care and can do most things that your pet needs.

“Lily was awesome! She took great care of them and got them lots of great exercise. It was comforting to know they were in great hands with Lily!”

About: I had the pleasure of growing up with animals and have been around dogs/cats my entire life. I currently have two dogs of my own. An 8 year old German shepherd, and 5 year old pomsky. As a dog owner myself, i'm very familiar with the requirements and dedication that comes with watching/owning animals from the puppy stage to their older years. I'm happy to be there for your animals whenever you need me to be. My availability is very open now that my daughter is older and much more independent. I would care for client's pets however they wanted me to. Whatever they needed, within reason, to feel comfortable and know their animal is being well taken care of.

About: For over 30 years, I've had the joy of caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Growing up surrounded by these wonderful companions taught me just how special the bond between a pet and their person is. Today, I’m honored to help others by providing their pets with the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to treat your furry family member like my own! Now enjoying retirement, I am fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets who bring so much love and joy into our lives. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space and routines with the utmost respect. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe and cared for by sticking closely to their normal schedule and providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just quiet time, I tailor each visit to your pet’s needs and personality. I am also happy to share photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your fur babies.

“Nadia has been great to work with. Very communicative. My dog looks forward to her weekly walks.”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my home since I was a child. I have always taken the best of care of my pets. I worked for the Humane Society at one time, but my heart almost broke with love for all of those animals. I always wave and speak to animals, a little corny, but true. You will not find someone who cares more about the well being of your pet. I have also welcomed pet visitors into my classroom frequently. I am currently off for the summer because I am a teacher, so I have lots of time to love and devote to your pet! I have a fenced back yard that allows for running and playing. My own children love pets also. I have two dogs and two cats of my own.

About: New to Rover promo code: CHRISS86159 ********I will be away 9/4-9/8********** Ask about my multiple pet discount for drop in visits! Additional fee for any visits over 15 miles to accommodate for travel time and gas. Hello everyone! I have been on Rover for a few years now and have experienced alot so far but I am sure that I will still get a surprise here and there! I try to take all surprises with grace and just learn from them! We have: bones, hard yak cheese sticks, frisbee, balls, soft stuffy toys, rope toys, bubble machine, dog pool and pounce sprinkler, lick mats, sniff mats, puzzle toys, we do some arts and crafts (typically on or near holidays), homemade frozen enrichment bowls, if you request a bath for your dog I have multiple deshedding tools. Blankets, crates, extra bowls and diapers if needed. I am investing a lot into my doggy business. I recently made a small indoor gated area that has mats layed down for optimal comfort during indoor play and sleeping. I am in the process of creating an additional fenced in area in my yard that will feature a sand pit for those that love to dig, turf grass to contain the mud and a climbing feature for king of the hill! I can give your dog the patience it may need for basic training along with draining out some of the coopt up energy so they can listen better! Training in wee hours doesnt bother me at all and can even be fun. I have kids that are not rough or overly involved with animals and that also know some basic training. Any medication or special request can also be discussed and accommodated. Any questions just feel free to ask. Thanks for reading and considering me for your fur baby. I currently work from home so am pretty flexible when it comes to accommodating what works best for my pet parents! My mom is also very helpful in the chance that I do leave home, she resides with me! I have a decent sized fenced backyard for being in the city. We love to play fetch and run perimeter. Inside we like to use our indoor manners. Typically all of the dogs sleep together with blankets and cushions that I provide in a space that is about 10x10. I do have crates to utilize if it is the pet parents preference or if we have concerns with potty or chewing issues (I may utilize a doggy diaper when in doors if your dog marks inside) . Some dogs do get to sleep in a separate space from other dogs or in a room with one of my kids if that is where they feel the most comfortable and behave the best.

About: My family always had dogs and cats while I was growing up. I sorted the pictures of the dogs I have known the longest to the shortest, with a photo of me at The Hemingway House in Key West FLA petting a cat. First is my childhood dog named Fezz who passed away in 2020. Second is my brothers beagle, Jack. Next is an old friend’s tan Pitbull named Louise. Then there is my dad’s white puppy named Piggie. The next photos are my friend Andy’s dogs. Two Bully Breeds. The white one is Biggie and the grey one is Gianna. I have watched them a few times and I walk them together. Biggie is a rescue and is considered a high risk dog. He has bit 10+ people, but he loves me so much and is very comfortable around me. I wouldn’t say I’m a dog whisperer, but I certainly have a way with dogs. I have watched my brother’s beagle as well a few times. When I lived in CO (about a decade ago) I watched a German Shepherd and an Alaskan Malamute. They were a handful and hard to walk together as they were both pretty big and strong, but I was still able to do it. I work remote doing life and health insurance, so I’m just looking for a side job to supplement my income until I build my book of business up. I could watch them at my house as I have a huge fenced in yard, but I would rather meet the animal at home where it’s most comfortable for them. When I watch Andy’s dogs, I watch them at his house.

About: Dogs and cats and lizards, oh my! I’ve done it all. For the first 18 years of my life I’ve had experience walking dogs, house sitting, and raising my own pets. Then I began working at a summer camp where I was partially responsible for taking care of our reptile family - crested geckos, bearded dragons, and ball pythons and were just some of the cuties I got to take care of. Since then I have taken care and owned cats, dogs, and lizards of my own and on the side have house sat and loved many family and friends pets while they’re gone. I even have experience with some medical administration such as insulin shots to a feisty cat and pills to the dog I currently own. I can’t wait to get acquainted with your family member :) My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most any time a pet needs taken care of, including during the work day and weekends. I have three dogs, one cat and a crested gecko currently who are all very loved and spoiled by myself, my husband and our almost two year old. We’ve taught all the dogs recall, leash training and how to be gentle around young children. Our cat is an old man with feline herpes, one of our dogs needs daily oral medication and the juvenile gecko gets extra attention as he continues growing.

About: I grew up around pets. I am very active & can be energetic with your pet. I can play & run (if needed). I love to be around and to spend time with animals.

I am flexible with my visits and can come multiple times a day if my schedule doesn’t conflict that day. I work full time, but I have flexibility with having to be in the office so I am able to work with most pet schedules. I also don’t work on the weekends and am usually in town. I can play with pets for hours or just be there to make sure they’re taken care of if they’re more of a shy and/or lazy breed.

I make sure all food and cherished items are out of reach, and I make sure to actually be with the dogs so they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t!
