Dog Walking in Enfield

“Melissa was great with my dog! at first my dog was very shy but Melissa was patient and worked with my dog until she was conformable to go for a walk. Melissa responded quickly to my request and always took photos of my dog on the walk.”

“Paul is a wonderful addition to my dog’s routine! I was scrambling to figure out what to do on my 12 hour days with my newly adopted rescue female pit mix when classes started this Fall. After reviewing a few profiles, Paul’s really stuck out as someone with both passion and genuine knowledge about dogs/dog behavior. I asked him to come meet my dog before we officially booked to ensure that she reacted well to him. Within the first few minutes, my dog was on her back requesting belly rubs. Needless to say, they hit it off! I feel very comfortable with Paul and SO pleased with how happy my dog looks in the pictures I get from their weekly walks. Even when she refuses to go outside in the rain, he spends time hanging out with her so she still gets some attention. I couldn’t be more appreciative and I’m sure my dog would 100% agree!”

About: I've had the pleasure of taking care of dogs for several years. Wonderful pet owners have relied on me to care for, feed, and walk their pets. I am an elementary school teacher on summer break, so I am available during the week and on the weekends to care for your pets! I have a wonderful scenic walkway lined with trees and lots of grass to run and play in! There are also several parks close by.

“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”

About: I’m calm, caring, and intuitive with animals, and I treat each one like my own. Due to my passion of fitness, I love getting outside for walks and playtime! Whether it’s a comfort companion, sticking to routines or medication schedules, your pet will be in safe, loving hands. I am in school full-time with classes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 9am to 5:30, and I’m available for early morning walks these days. On Monday and Thursday I am available all day until 5pm and also have weekend availability as well. I love being active, spending time outdoors, and creating a calm, comforting environment for animals when their family are away. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their routine and creating a calm environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, keep things clean and secure, and respect the space. I prioritize active communication as well as your pet’s wellbeing.

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Shea and I’m super glad you’re considering me to watch your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and I’ve been pet sitting for quite some time now. I myself have a 5 year old Australian Cattle Dog and a Green Cheek Conure. I also used to have a flock of chickens, so I’m well-equipped for any feathered friends you have! I’ve also had experience working in a pet grooming salon, where I gained extensive knowledge on signs of stress in animals as well as first-aid. I understand all pets have different needs and I’m able to take the time to get to know them and adapt to help them feel safe while you’re away! Nobody is more prepared than I am to care for your little buddies! My schedule is very flexible. I pet sit full-time and I keep my Rover schedule up to date daily! That being said, I do only accept bookings after doing a meet and greet to ensure all parties (especially your pets!) feel as comfortable as possible during the booking. I will follow any instructions left for me about your pet closely! Please let me know of any specific parts of their routine you would like me to continue during our booking. I’m here to make your pet (and you!) feel as stress-free as possible. I also understand your privacy is important, I’ll do everything in my power to make you feel safe to welcome me in your home while you’re away :) *** Dog walks only: please note that during the summer, if it is too hot outside, walks will be shortened. I will still stay the full amount of time booked, it just will not be outside the whole time. I’ll replace the remaining walk time with play time and pets! I will still take the pups outside to use the bathroom, but for their safety I will limit time outside in extreme weather. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!

I have worked with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, sheep, etc. I went to a VOAG program in high school where i gained many of my skills. I also have been on rover since 2018 and dogsat & walked for 4 years before that. I will treat your pet as my own and you will be very satisfied! Please message me for any bookings or questions I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am a stay at home mom and i am home majority of the day if not all day so they will not be alone for very long if at all! I have an unfenced yard but will always walk on a leash. Feel free to bring whatever you use for your pet and i will continue the same routine for them.

“Liz was very responsive and the dogs seemed to love her! It was a last minute request too, with less than 48 hour notice and she was great about it.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention and patience. I excel at establishing a safe, nurturing environment that helps pets feel comfortable and loved in their owners' absence. Beyond standard pet care, I bring exceptional attention to detail, ensuring pets maintain their routines, whether it's administering medication, feeding on a precise schedule, or providing stimulating activities to keep them happy and healthy. What truly makes my services unique is that I view pet care as not just a job but an opportunity to serve the community. As a mother of two teenagers, I involve my children in learning how to responsibly care for animals under my guidance. This helps them understand the value of compassion, empathy, and giving back to others by treating pets with the same love and respect we would our own family members. Together, we aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners by treating their furry family members as our own. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. As someone who juggles multiple responsibilities, I prioritize creating a structured schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care to the pets I look after. Each day, I plan my tasks around the specific needs of the pets in my care, ensuring their feeding, walks, playtime, and any special requirements—like medication or grooming—are handled on time. My flexibility and time-management skills allow me to accommodate even last-minute requests, providing peace of mind to pet owners with busy lives. Incorporating pet care into my routine has also been an invaluable way to teach my children about responsibility and compassion. They often assist me with simple tasks under my supervision, giving them a sense of community involvement while allowing me to maintain a high standard of care for each pet. This integration of pet care into my daily life isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a passion that aligns perfectly with my desire to make a positive impact on both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their own homes is a responsibility I take very seriously. I strive to provide a seamless experience that maintains the pet’s usual routine and ensures their comfort and safety in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I begin by thoroughly understanding their specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, playtime activities, and any medical or behavioral requirements. I ensure that every detail is followed precisely to keep pets happy and stress-free. During each visit, I prioritize interactive care, whether that’s engaging in their favorite games, taking them for walks, or simply providing companionship. For pets requiring additional attention, such as seniors or those with special needs, I bring patience and care to ensure they remain calm and comfortable. I also treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean and organized space, follow any provided instructions, and ensure the home is secure when I leave. My goal is to not only care for the pets but also provide peace of mind to their owners, knowing their furry family members and home are in trusted hands.

“Elizabeth we so great to our dog waffles. It was one of the first times leaving him in over a year and she did a wonderful job making us comfortable and making sure our dog waffles had a great time.”

“Mary provided the best care for my pup! Mary was great to coordinate with which made organizing my travel that much less stressful. She went above and beyond to make sure my pup was well-loved while I was away, and sent me pictures & videos & information about their time together. I highly recommend Mary!”

About: When I had my two dogs I would watch them whenever I needed to and would provide the care that they needed. I love all dogs and will pet them whenever I get the chance. If I can be around dogs/ cats I will be. I like to take my own dogs for walks and exercise/ do physical activity with them daily. A lot of my family members have dogs and I like to spend quality time with them and be with them when I have the chance. As an athlete myself I understand the importance of exercise if a dog needs to go for a run I am more than happy to take them for one so we both can enjoy our time together. I’m looking forward to hopefully spending time with some new furry friends! I am currently in school full time during the week. I come home Friday-Monday and work at my job every other Saturday and Sunday from 3-7. On Fridays I am available at any time, Saturdays and Sundays any time before 2 depending on if it’s my days to work, and Mondays any time before 12 I have a fenced in yard and lots of experience with taking care of animals as I have had a variety of different pets. I know how important pets are to families, so I would never put one in harms way.

“Mark has been awesome with Chance. My work hours changed and Marks walks with Chance give him the fresh air and exercise he loves so much. Mark has been very flexible with my requests when my schedule changes. I know Chance appreciates the attention!”
