Dog Walking Economy

“Trudy has been a godsend to our family and is very caring and supportive toward our pup.”

About: I've been a dog owner for 16 years. I currently have a sweet German Shepherd puppy and in the past I've had a German Shepard, a boxer/lab mix and a full boxer. My family and I are also on the go a lot, so I understand needing help with the dogs when you're out of town. I'm excited to help take care of your fur baby while you're taking time away! I work full-time from home with a relatively flexible schedule. I am available to stop in the mornings and afternoons to let your pups out or to feed them. Evenings vary, but just ask and I'll see if I can make it work! I am unable to care for pets at my home at this time, but I am happy to follow any instructions you may have for caring for your pet at your home.

About: Caring for pets has always been part of my life, not just something I do, but something I truly love. I share my home with my big-hearted Golden Retriever Lucy Goose who brings joy, structure, and a lot of personality into my daily routine. Through her—and the many pets I’ve cared for—I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, medications, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also had the joy of hosting pets with special needs, recently including a vivacious little pug puppy with epilepsy. Providing a calm, consistent, and loving environment is something I take pride in. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, respect, and genuine affection—just like one of my own. While away, your pet is my family and I am fiercely protective of my family. Hi, I’m Jess! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to a sweet Golden Retriever who’s very much part of my everyday life. Caring for pets is something that feels natural to me—it’s woven into my daily routine, not something squeezed in as an afterthought. My Lucy Goose is a large Golden Retriever with the sweetest, most gentle “little dog energy.” She’s very social, kind, and welcoming, and does wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. She has happily shared her space with smaller dogs and special-needs pets, and all interactions are always supervised to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I work during the week for about 6–8 hours a day, and outside of that time my life revolves around walks, fresh air, playtime, and creating a calm, loving home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, and I’m intentional about making sure every pet in my care gets plenty of attention, affection, and consistency. I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their quirks, honoring their routines, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, backyard playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can truly relax. My home includes a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor play, and I supervise pets closely throughout the day. I also have a few pup gates to ensure safe calm and private pet feedings or if quiet time is needed. I also use cameras for added peace of mind and awareness while I am out and about. Whether pets are in my home or yours, I follow routines carefully, respect boundaries, and keep a watchful eye on behavior, comfort, and wellbeing. I communicate openly and provide updates because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and cared for.

“Callie is amazing! Always on time, calls ahead with any concerns about whether and/or need to change schedules. Very flexible and pleasant. Most importantly Izzy loves her! Izzy runs down the steps to meet her, and always comes back with a smile on her face. I am so happy Callie is able to provide dog walking services for Izzy!”

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and have been actively responsible for their care for the past five years. Growing up, my household consistently cared for up to ten dogs at a time, including working dogs, show dogs, and family pets. I have experience with dogs ranging from newborn puppies to seniors and from small breeds to dogs over 100 pounds. I have assisted with six successful litters from birth through early development, helping with monitoring, handling, and daily care of the puppies. I am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, maintaining structured feeding routines, and supporting crate and potty training when appropriate. I have experience introducing young, non-aggressive dogs to others in a controlled setting. I also regularly care for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges. Currently, I have one dog living with me full time. He is a 35-pound Mini Australian Shepherd who is neutered, fully vaccinated, and has graduated from service animal training. My goal is to provide calm, structured, and attentive care so dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently a student at RMU and run my own photography business, so my schedule is great to give me time to play with your pups! I am typically home in the mornings and evenings, with breaks between classes during the day depending on the semester. I am available for boarding on the weekends at any time with weekdays being after 5pm everyday but Monday and Wednesday. When boarding, I do not leave dogs for extended periods without planning around their needs, and I make sure potty breaks and exercise are built into my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on structure, supervision, and a calm environment. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, regular potty breaks, and daily exercise appropriate to each dog, with regular visits to local dog parks. Pets are never left unattended with access to unsafe items, and I monitor interactions closely, especially during introductions, including the use of cameras while out of the house. I have experience managing multi-dog households and understand the importance of slow, controlled introductions. My own Mini Australian Shepherd is well-trained and calm indoors. When boarding dogs, I prioritize compatibility and supervision. For cats, I maintain clear separation and provide quiet, designated spaces so they feel secure and stress-free. I keep my living space clean, organized, and free of hazards. Water is always available, and I follow all owner instructions carefully, including dietary needs and medication administration. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space as if it were my own. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions exactly as provided, maintain cleanliness, and provide updates so owners feel confident and informed while they are away. I also run my own photography business, so I love capturing moments while pets are in my care and you are certain to get photos of your pet.

About: I first started dog sitting when I was just 9 years old. It was the first job I ever had and it has continued to be a love of mine throughout my life. I come from a family that treats their pets like family and have plenty of love to offer your pet. My mom often dogsat when I was growing up, so I'm terrific with animals that aren't already familiar with me. I am also an active runner and have plenty of energy to keep up with even the most enthusiastic pet and would enjoy taking your beloved pet on lengthy runs and walks if to their liking. When it comes to reliability I have several years of customer service background and have a solid resume to back me up. I have a flexible full-time job. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday I have the most availability. The rest of the week I am available only in the mornings before 9am and then again any time after 5pm. I can also do quick/flexible lunch break work as well around 12pm. I have my own car and am available to travel and take trips to surrounding parks or for long walks. I am also open to staying at a residence for the day Sun-Tues.

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.

About: I have years of experience with large breed dogs, and now a standard poodle puppy of my own! My long haired chihuahua recently passed away at 15, so I have plenty of experience with small dogs. I love dogs, truly, and even the parts that aren’t great like my when my super senior chihuahua was still alive and needed extra care that comes with old age or cleaning up puppy messes. I’m experienced in dog medical issues, pill times, vet visits, surgeries, heart problems, and even the dog Heimlich maneuver. I work full time from 0600-2:30 pm usually, with weekends free. I’m available before work if you live close to me or my job by the RNO airport and I’m free after 4 pm. I have some flexibility the closer to me or my workplace you are! I do not have a yard at my apartment but there is a dog park on-site! Multiple walks a day, including my lunch for puppy time, if crating is needed please bring the crate with the dog as my chihuahua does not get crated and my puppy only crates at night. I do allow dogs on furniture, and if a large puppy or small dog breed of chihuahua makes you or your dog nervous for home stays, I am willing to do a meet-and-greet first. Once you meet my chihuahua his well-trained and gentle manner will speak for itself. My puppy is a sweetheart who is eager to please! I currently work full time Monday to Friday in an office environment. I’m home most weekends and spend my lunch with my puppy. I’m usually done with work around 3-4 pm I always ask if there is a yard and if it’s fenced. I like to know where leashes and bags are for walks too! Toys and treats, especially for kitties, are important!

About: Greetings. (services available in 🇳🇱 NL + USA) I enjoy caring for all types of creatures! I'll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and totally relaxed while you're away. I typically care for cats/dogs in my home but I am also open to house sitting within reasonable distances. Send a quick message if you have any questions. I work full time, however it's remote from home and I set my own break schedule. So I'll have plenty of spare time to walk, groom and play with the 🐕 I'm in a condo that allows pets and am on the ground floor so it's easy to take multiple breaks for a walk or run. Medicine wise, I have given pills and insulin injections to animals I have watched and not got scratched.

“This is my second time asking Jessika to take care of my timid Dachshund, Harley. Jessika is patient, gentle and kind to my quirky pup. I leave Harley with Jessika without worry, knowing she is in the hands of a reliable, responsible and caring friend.”

About: I absolutely adore pets. I have owned a cat and a dog, and have pet-sat for numerous animals. I can't think of a better job than getting paid to do something I would do for free. My promise to you is that I will treat your pet with the utmost care, as if it were my own. I am a recent college graduate with some time before I start my full-time job. I am flexible with scheduling, and I'm happy to work with you to best support you and your pet's needs. I heavily prioritize the safety and well-being of the pets I watch. I am vigilant to ensure that pets receive all the exercise, medication, and other care they require while also giving them the attention and love they deserve. I truly enjoy and am passionate about providing the best experiences for the pets I watch!

About: HUGE animal lover! Ever since I was a kid I have loved surrounding myself with animals/pets. I grew up having dogs and cats so they have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working two jobs: full-time at Wilson McGinley 5 days a week and part-time at a Hitchhiker Brewing. The full time requires me to be gone 2-8 hours (flexible with being an on premise sales rep) and the brewery is a 7 hour shift. I can always make time for pet care! When I am at someone’s home I can take the dog outside every 2-4 hours and can provide daily walks. If I am staying at someone’s place I usually tend to clean their home because I want to show a level of respect for anyone allowing me to stay at their home.
