Dog Walking in Erie

About: We’re longtime Rover users, but new Rover sitters. Here’s why that should not scare you off though. ... 1) No-cost meet and greet before booking. You can interview us in person, tour our home and yard, poke around, and decide if we’re a fit before committing. ... 2) Ryan is certified in Red Cross Canine and Feline First Aid/CPR, and Fear Free Canine and Feline Daycare, Boarding, and Administering Medication. ... 3) Two adults working from home and no children = no schedule flakiness or overbooking. ... 4) Only one guest pet at a time for a) focused attention and b) flexibility in the event of illness or injury. We can drop everything in an emergency and YOUR PET IS NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. ... About Us: We each grew up in dog and cat households. Today we’re proud pet parents of our lady husky Fen, and our cats - brother and sister - Loki and Freya. We’ve cared for our own pets from youngster to senior phases, some who needed meds, injections, extra patience, and lots of vet support. We board dogs and cats for friends and family; now we’d like to do it with Rover. ... As mentioned above, we both work from home. But I, Ryan, will be primary contact since my freelance work gives greater flexibility. I adore animals and shower affection, but I also treat pet care as a job. In my former corporate life I was an IT enterprise software project manager, so pet parents get an avid practitioner of scheduling and task management apps for reliable time-management, routines, care tasks, communication, and status and photo updates. ... 5:30 am - 6 pm Weekdays, 10 am - 6 pm Weekends 6 pm is latest pickup or drop-off time. Calendar is kept up-to-date and can schedule up 3 months in advance. We start with a no-cost meet and greet to learn your pet’s routine, triggers, rewards, meds, and walking style. And most important, to see that we're a good fit. We keep it calm, read body language, and let them warm up on their terms—no barging in like Kramer on Seinfeld. For drop-ins and walks, goal is to keep care steady and low-stress: meals, water, potty breaks, litter box duty, meds, playtime, and safe, structured walks matched to your pet's energy. For daycare and boarding, the meet and greet is a visit to our house. We'll introduce ourself and our pets. You and your pet can tour the house and yard. We'll ensure everyone is comfortable and if the fit isn't right, we'll completely understand. Dogs stay with Ryan downstairs with space to settle in. Our husky and two older cats will be upstairs except for supervised interaction and play (if welcome by you and your pet). We feed dogs separately, manage food and toys carefully to prevent friction, and keep the whole setup calm, predictable, and drama-free. Dogs get two walks a day unless you ask otherwise - and that can be with or without our dog.

“Danielle has been great with my Belgian malinois mix. He is still a puppy so we are still working on manners but she has been phenomenal with him! She’s very communicative with me and is very reliable. I already have my next walk booked with her! I would definitely recommend her for your pups!”

“Brittany was amazing. She picked up our last minute holiday travel and it couldn’t have been better. Walley was excited everytime she came (he often hides for dog walkers) but not for Brittany! Great updates and many pictures.”

About: Hello! I’ve been taking care of pups one way or another for about the last 12 years. I used to dog sit a lot back in high school, and now that I have more free time I’d love to get back into it. We have our own 2 dogs that we are very diligent with regarding food and walking schedule. Very patient, extremely loving and the best part we keep lots of toys around! I currently work full time, around 35 hours a week and 6-7 hours a day. I follow a strict daily routine with my own 2 dogs so ideally your dog would also be okay with being alone from approximately 8am-3:30pm Monday-Friday given my current work schedule. Saturday and Sunday will be dedicated to hanging with pups! I live in a townhome with no fenced yard. I understand this may be a deal breaker for some people but let me reassure you! My dogs are crate trained while no one is home and ideally yours would be as well. However this is not mandatory! Dogs are fed around 5-6am and briefly walked shortly after every morning before going to their crate. As soon as I get home, dogs go for a 20-30 minute walk. Our dogs eat dinner in halves. First half around 4/4:30 and the second half around 5/5:30. We have found this works best for our dogs to digest their food! Dogs are allowed on our couch and they are allowed to sleep wherever we are during the nighttime! Rest assured this actually benefits in monitoring bathroom habits and keeping a closer eye on your pup!

“Jon is so wonderful with my pup always follows directions perfectly and I know I can trust him with my sweet baby! I would definitely hire Jon again!!”

“Stephanie has been incredibly patient and sweet with my generally terrified-of-strangers dog. She’s gone above and beyond in the face of a dog with a large bark. I am incredibly comfortable with her caring for my girl!!”

Stephanie B.

“Lindsey was amazing! She walked three of our dogs and was on-time and very friendly and professional even at 8am on these frigid winter mornings. Thank you Lindsey!”

“Adriana was amazing to my fur kids! I needed her help in a pinch and she came through so awesome for us! She went above and beyond and really put a lot of attention to detail with their care. Thank you for making my pups smile and bringing me peace of mind! We will see you again soon! 5 star walker right here ❤️??”

About: I’ve shared a dog with my mom for the past 9 years and have been around dogs my whole life. I’m calm, patient, and truly love caring for all kinds of pups. Friends and family often rely on me to feed, walk, and stay overnight with their pets. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am a part time student remotely at UCCS so your pet is my biggest concern! I am extremely flexible and can do drop byes or I can stay overnight whatever fits your needs. I care for each pet based on their individual needs and personality. Whether that means cuddling on the couch, playing fetch, or going for long walks, I want your pet to feel happy, comfortable, and fulfilled. Safety and trust are my top priorities! I always use secure leashes or harnesses on walks, respect your home’s rules, and follow any specific routines you provide.

About: Caring for pets has always been my passion! I’ve grown up with cats and dogs of all kinds and have always been very adamant in making sure they receive the best care and all the love possible. I’ve worked professionally with animals in doggy day care setting and worked closely with dog trainers. My husband is also a vet technician who has spent his whole career working with animals including in dog kennels and doggy day care. Our life purpose is caring for animals, our own and yours! You can be sure your pet is being cared for deeply while you are away! I have taken my passion for pet care full time! Please contact me for availability, I am booking up quickly but I have a wide range of availability for different services. From house sitting to dog walking, I also offer pet waste collection/removal & nail trims. We have a very well sized fully fenced back yard and an open home. Our home does have other cats and dogs so we mostly require guest to be adapted to this kind of environment. However, we have spaces in home available to keep a dog separate for their comfort levels if need be. Case by case. As far as animal care in our home or yours, we treat them as our own. Each animal has a different personality and different needs, which for us is easy to understand. If I am away home sitting for work, my husband is home caring for our animals. Please reach out and ask any questions you’d like for more information.

About: Our house has a huge backyard and access to walking trail. Your dog will get lots of walk and tlc. Your animal is promised to be loved and taken care of as if he were my own. About this sitter: I love dogs and would love to take care of Yours so you can have a worry free vacation. Please contact me if you have any questions! Also, I am more than happy to have your pup stay at my house too! I have a fenced in yard, access to walking trail and a two year old dog who is really well trained to keep your dog company.

About: Caring for pets and homes is something I genuinely love. With over 20 years of experience through Rover, TrustedHouseSitters, and private clients, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities — from energetic pups to gentle senior companions who need extra patience and care. I value trust and open communication, always sharing updates, photos, and messages so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every pet and home as if they were my own — keeping routines consistent and spaces clean, cozy, and secure. I also love traveling in a meaningful way, taking time to connect with each home, neighborhood, and furry friend I care for. My goal is simple: to give your pets genuine love and companionship, and to give you total peace of mind. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I intentionally structure my schedule to prioritize consistent visits, reliable feeding times, medication administration, litter care, and quality one-on-one attention. Because I build pet care into my routine—not around it—I’m flexible, dependable, and able to provide attentive, unhurried care that helps pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide care either in my clients’ homes or through drop-in visits, always following each pet’s established routine to minimize stress. In my clients’ homes, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, medication administration if needed, and home tidying related to pet care. I make sure pets receive plenty of affection, playtime, and calm companionship based on their individual personalities. I closely monitor behavior and health, provide updates with photos, and communicate promptly with owners so they feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: My partner and I, along with our greyhound, Shiloh, work as a team when dog sitting. We love being around other dogs and have years of experience. I've watched all manner of dogs for many years, from small to large, old to young, healthy to medically supported. We will both provide lots of TLC to all dogs that we have the opportunity to meet. We do have chickens as well, but they are always contained to their run when dogs are around :) If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us! We work remotely 50% of the time; but even when we go in to the office, we have the freedom to return home at any time. We have a large fenced yard and a dog that loves to run! There is plenty of room in our home to get comfortable or get some personal space. We are also within walking distance of the Erie Dog Park so we make visits there frequently.

“Mackenzie was great! My two pups really seemed to like her despite my one being very picky about who he trusts. Communication was great and my pups seemed to be well taken care of while we were away. Thanks so much!”

We love cuddles and will make sure that every dog in our house feels welcome and gets a lot of that;-) We love the outdoors, and live close to plenty of parks and trails.

So what are you waiting for? Send us a message cause we can’t wait to meet our new friend!:) I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to play with your pups.
