Dog Walkers in Emerald, NE

“Emma is just GREAT! I had hip replacement surgery and wasn't sure when I would be able to walk the boys myself. She was very accommodating with me adding weeks until I felt I could do it myself. The boys absolutely adore her. She communicates very well about things that happen on the walks. I highly recommend Emma and will have her walk the boys when needed again.”

“I have been using Andrea and Edwin for awhile now and they are so wonderful to work with. I usually request them when I have to have my boyfriend’s dog with me for extended days, but they are still sending me pictures of my cat who wasn’t part of the request. They are efficient in communication and flexible in timing and if something comes up. Highly recommend them for your pet needs!”

About: I have been in the pet industry since 2020 & have watched many dogs/cats over the years as well as reptiles. I love seeing how excited dogs get to see you & when a cat comes out of their hiding spot to eat their dinner! I have 3 cats of my own currently & had family dogs growing up but my apartment isn’t a good size for a dog right now. I currently have a job that varies on hours throughout the week but I am available most mornings/nights to take them out to the bathroom & provide food/water. I can also do dog walking almost every day of the week. I currently have 3 cats & they get wet food/dry daily and are also provided a clean water fountain that is replenished daily. I play with them as much as I can every day & they have a huge multi-level cat tree that they love so much.

About: My name is Marisol, and I am a Pre-Medicine student at UNL. I am a lifelong animal lover with over 6 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I worked at a veterinary clinic for about 5 years, and I continue to volunteer at pet shelters in my spare time. My boyfriend and I work together to make sure we provide the best service for all pets. Whether it's a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior needing medication, we tailor our care to meet the needs of each unique pet. I also don’t mind traveling around Lincoln, as long as it is within 20 minutes from my place! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work a flexible schedule and truly love spending time with dogs and cats. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, pet boarding, and doggy daycare mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I will be starting school again at the end of August, but I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs and keep them happy and comfortable. My home is smoke-free, clean, and pet-friendly. I provide safe indoor and outdoor spaces for play, plus toys, treats, and cozy resting areas. I also have multiple crates available if needed. I share my home with two small, friendly dogs and three loving cats who love making new friends, but I can also keep pets separate for shy dogs, senior pets, or special needs pets. I’m comfortable with puppy care, senior dog care, and administering oral medication.

About: I grew up helping with our family dog and couldn’t wait to get one of my own. I currently have a 3 year old golden retriever named Betty, who is very active and we walk daily! Would love to add your precious pup to the mix! I would love to add your precious pup into Betty and I’s daily walk! On weekdays I am available around 5:30pm or later (depending on your location) and weekends I am very flexible. Would be willing to leave Betty at home if need be, but would prefer to bring her along so she can make new friends! Walking Betty daily for nearly four years has given me great knowledge in how to control dogs that have lots of energy and love to pull on the leash. I am also able to help teach your pup simple commands while on our walk or am able to ensure to use any commands you already use to help keep those part of their daily routine.

About: As cliche as it sounds, taking care of pets isn’t just something I do; it’s who I am. Since I was little, I’ve been surrounded by animals of all kinds – from snakes, hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and dogs of all sizes, to fish and cats, including elderly pets.🐶🐍🐰🐢🐱 I’ve been there for potty training, administering medication, grooming, scheduled feedings, and maintaining teeth hygiene. To me, animals are pure and down-to-earth, and deserve the same respect ❤️ I don’t do this just for the money – I do it because I genuinely care about animals. I’ve heard too many sad stories about boarding pets somewhere, not getting the care they deserve, and the excessive costs involved, and I want to change that. This home is as much theirs as it is mine. I offer a six-foot fully gated yard, big enough for several animals to bask in the sun or play with toys.🌤️ I have several dog beds (and furniture) with enough space to care for your babies. Even the smaller critters or pets that aren’t cats and dogs! I recently used Rover myself and was initially skeptical, worried, and just overall leery about the situation. 😅But it turned out to be a wonderful experience, and now I want others to have the same peace of mind and enjoyment. I want pet owners to feel confident that their animals are in good hands so they can truly relax and enjoy their own vacation, knowing their pets are having a great time too.☺️ And if I could, I’d give myself five out of five stars, rated highly by Forbes ⭐️for providing top notch safety and security to help ease your pet’s separation from you while you’re away. Don’t hesitate to text me on any questions, concerns, or just to chat about your pets. It’s a big decision to make who you can trust your animals with, and I am happy to help 🫶 The question is how do I fit pet care into my routine- but I don’t “fit it” into my routine. I follow my animals routine, and what they need to be their best self. I am make it a priority on managing potty breaks, feedings, treats, and everything in between. It especially helps that I am home most of my days, and wouldn’t mind more company ☺️ It’s not that I just want to “provide care.” I feel like anyone could do that, but it’s more of bonding with that animal. It’s learning their needs, routine, and having patience with them. My goal is for them to not view me as a complete stranger, and more as a good friend to have 💕With that being said- I would love to take your dog on a walk, feed them, grooming, playing, and giving all the love they deserve! If there is good communication and understanding, I would be happy to help with proper medication or medical needs as well 🩷

I have a very large backyard and a very friendly dog at my house. It is a very pet friendly house with two cats as well.

I also love taking animals on a good walk!! I am huge on love and attention, making sure that they are well kept. My dogs are a little too loved, they really love their treats. But I am respectful of all owners rules for their animals and will take care of them to the best of my ability as if the owners weren't gone.

“I couldn't be happier with Mikaela. She treats my girl like her own. The peace of mind I have knowing she's coming by to spend time with Ann is priceless. I plan to recommend her to everyone I know in need of these services. She even gave her special treatment on Anns birthday 😍”

About: I grew up with pets my whole life. My family and friends have relied on me walk, feed, and house/dog sit when they are unavailable. My dog MJ, who passed in 2020, made one of the biggest impacts in my life, and if I can give more care and love to animals it would be very fulfilling. I am comfortable around pets of all ages, and will cater to each animals needs. It is always my aim to adore your pet as much as you do! My job is mostly remote and I do make my own schedule. So I will be able to easily cater to your pet care needs. I will respect your pets boundaries and cater to their needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved. All pets are different, and require different ways of caring for.

About: While working at a dog/cat/critter boarding, daycare and grooming business for four years, I was able to build upon my pet care experience.

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog and cat since I was 12. I have experience with crate training dogs and maintaining the commands that my client’s use with their dog/cat. I’m very flexible to my client’s needs and always want to exceed their expectations. I’m currently a full time student, so I’ll be available mostly on the weekends to dogsit/catsit. However, I can always work with both of our schedules to accommodate drop ins during the week! I live in an apartment in downtown Lincoln, so it’s not very ideal for pet sitting. I’ve dog sat in multiple families homes, and there hasn’t been any issues or complaints. If it’s over the weekends, I can spend more time caring for your fur baby, even if that involves spending the day or night there too!

About: Currently, I have a good girl that we rescued. She is about 4 years old, 45lbs. Previously, I cared for my senior toothless blind dog for approximately 8 years.

I am also a Mom to 4 human kids and understand how important furry family members are to all members of your family. Thank you for your consideration. I work for LPS so I have summers off. This is my "summer side hustle". I am looking forward to this while also taking my kids to the pool. I have a large fenced yard and my own very friendly dog to keep yours company.

About: I have taken care of my two dogs since they were puppies. Along with that i have trained them in various areas from potty training, tricks, good leash maners, and all around good behaviors. I am very understanding of the ups and downs of having a dog such as my puppy peeing on the carpet or chewing up things. I have learmed to be patient and keep working on their training. I'm currently taking classes at UNL and I work part time through the university, but I always have plenty of time to play with the dogs and take them on walks. I enjoy spending time at home with my dog and taking her out for play time. She loves other dogs and would really enjoy meeting some new friends. I have a large yard and can provide a crate for a medium sized dog if they are crate trained other wise i have a dedicated room where the dogs can stay and play without any thing that could pose a risk to them. When not in their safe space i will tentativly watch the dogs and play with them to keep them happy.

“Sidney is the best!! My dog did so well with her!”
