Dog Walking Erlanger

“My dog was so happy to see her after all the cold weather and snow! Very friendly and responsive walker. I am always happy when I go to book a walk and she’s available.”

“Sydney is an excellent two-dog walker. My high-energy pups are already recognizing her and getting excited about their walks with her. I just stepped outside to retrieve them and they were sitting politely and picture-perfect.”

About: Intrigued by “man’s best friend” since the tender age of 3; I engulfed my life with everlasting love and care for pets; for over 30 years! My experience includes: pet sitting for neighbors: cats and dogs; providing pet washing services; and volunteering at pet shelters. Playful pups are my specialty! I’ve previously sat with Yorkies, Dalmatians, German Shepards, French bulldogs, Goldendoodles, Pomeranians, and many more! I am currently available 24/7 for services. Feel free to contact me anytime with inquiries. Safety is my top priority! Pets are family! In my home, they are provided playful toys and loving interactions. Hourly walks with a harness collar; trailing into a field for wide range of motion; to soak in the sun are a must for my furry friends! For over night stays, they will be secured in an extra large crate starting at 11pm-5am with potty breaks and soothing music for pets.

“Great communication. Would recommend”

About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !

“Andrea is amazing. My dogs loved her and she was on time and professional. She took care of my pups like they were her own. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life! I like to roller skate with my dad’s dog, Bellevue. I think pets should be spoken to like they absolutely know what we are saying. I’m currently in NKY for an extended time for family matters and I am completely free to provide pet care to those who need it. I will give them love and adoration. They will be on leash, unless instructed otherwise… I think daily exercise is important for both human and pets alike.

“Kassandra was great to work with and took great care of our dogs! She was on time, communicative and shared lots of photos. She even made sure their water bowls were topped off before heading out. Highly recommend!”

About: I have experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors since high school and would love caring for your pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a job but my time is very flexible due to me being an on demand worker! I am able to stay for as long as you need and do many walks I am good with following whatever routine your dog might have including feeding, walking, playing, fresh water ect. As for my pets I have 3 sweet cats and 1 dog who I love spending time with. They are very happy and loved.

“Melissa clearly LOVES dogs. Gracie loved her immediately and was happy to go in the car with her to the park for a walk. Gracie didn't last the entire hour and Melissa didn't pressure Gracie to walk farther than she wanted to. She read Gracie's body language and responded appropriately.”

About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a big yard that's about 70 yards deep and I have a secured lead in both front and back yards. For added safety, I attach an air tag to your pets collar. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. I'm not a fan of dog parks. I prefer to select my walking path to ensure your pets safety. I live alone.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a Trauma ICU nurse, I’m naturally attentive, dependable, and calm under pressure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I love being active and especially enjoy taking dogs on walks, exploring parks, and getting them outside for plenty of exercise and playtime. I’m also happy to help with feeding, medications, and maintaining their usual routine. I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates along the way so you never have to wonder how they’re doing! As a nurse, I work three 12-hour shifts per week, which gives me several full days off and plenty of flexibility for pet care! On my days off, I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and longer stays. My work schedule varies week to week, but I know my schedule in advance and keep my availability updated so you’ll always know when I’m available. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, and any special needs or preferences. In your home, I’ll be respectful of your space and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are always secure. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health and will keep you updated with plenty of pictures and messages while your pet is in my care

“My dog, Cora, LOVES Amanda. Amanda is caring, attentive, timely, and communicates well. We look forward to having Amanda help walk and care for Cora, and glad to have her with my team if dog walkers ... Until I recover from a vax reaction. Than You, Amanda ... Blessings.”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs constantly in my life. I understand the need for medication given on time, cats needing daily litter changes, and everything that goes along with pet care. I am free anytime of day. I’m very open, loving, and enjoy building relationships with clients and their pets. Best part of my day is when their animals remember me. All animals are always welcome! I love going on walks with clients dogs, or sitting and taking care of their cats. Other animals are welcome as well, I have had training with all other animals as well- goats, horses, sheep and beyond.

“I have three dogs with different needs because of age and temperament. I was most worried about my small, shy dog, but he took a treat from Karen on the first meeting!”

About: I am a dog and cat owner. I am very responsible and fun. I think that pets are not just “pets” and that they are family and should be taken care of as so. I have experience watching three different families animals. I watched a families dog for 3 months when they went over seas. I try my best to be flexible but I do attend nursing school. Outside of my classes I typically have an open schedule. I am dependable when it comes to being punctual and completing any and all tasks. I set goals for myself and I always give 110 percent in whatever I am doing. I am comfortable with any sized dog and also any other pets. I am also comfortable with any age of the animal that I am taking care of. I work from home and build my own schedule. I have flexibility in my schedule to take pets to dog parks and out for a long walk. I respect that pets are most comfortable in their own space with their own smells and routines. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walk routes to any quirks or commands your pet knows. I treat your home with care and always leave it exactly as I found it.

About: I have grown up and owned animals all of my life including dogs, cats, cows, chickens, sheep, rabbits, and hampsters! I am young and looking to walk and care for your pets! Pet care will fit perfectly into my routine of nursing school and I am excited to work with anyone to fit their pet care needs and wants! My roommates and I own a male siamese cat, keeping our home very pet friendly. I also have grown up with animals my whole life and have a special place for them in my heart.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From fun-filled walks and playtime to administering medications and providing attentive senior care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. I’m also skilled in basic training and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. My passion for keeping dogs happy and healthy ensures they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Daily Routine:     1.    Morning Care:     •    Start the day with a morning potty break for Tootsie, followed by her breakfast. Puppies often have high energy in the morning, so I set aside 15-20 minutes for a walk or playtime to help her burn off energy.     •    This ensures she’s settled while I begin my workday.     2.    Midday Break:     •    Working from home allows me to schedule a midday potty break and a short walk. This keeps Tootsie active and gives me a mental break from work.     3.    Afternoon Engagement:     •    I incorporate short play sessions between tasks to provide Toots with mental stimulation, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, or a puzzle toy.     •    These breaks are timed to coincide with natural pauses in my workflow, helping me stay refreshed and productive.     4.    Evening Care:     •    I dedicate time for a longer walk or play session to meet her exercise needs.     •    Dinner and another potty break follow, ensuring she’s relaxed for the evening.     5.    Winding Down:     •    We end the day with cuddle time and one last potty break before bed, maintaining her routine and comfort. Weekly Routine:     •    Training Sessions: I include short, 5-10 minute training sessions daily to reinforce good behaviors and teach new commands.     •    Socialization: On weekends, I take my dog to a park or pet-friendly area to expose her to new environments, people, and other dogs.     •    Grooming and Maintenance: Weekly brushing keeps her long coat healthy, and I check her nails and ears regularly to prevent any issues.     •    House Cleaning: I allocate time to clean her bedding, toys, and the areas where she spends time to maintain hygiene. Working from home makes it easier to integrate these tasks naturally into my day. It ensures Tootsie’s needs are met while allowing me to balance work responsibilities effectively. When caring for pets in either my own home or a client's home, I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure environment, following their specific care instructions diligently, closely monitoring their behavior, and always keeping their well-being at the forefront, including providing proper food, water, exercise, and access to designated bathroom areas, while fostering a trusting relationship through consistent routines and gentle interactions. Key aspects of pet care, depending on the service offered: Basic Needs: Feeding: Providing the correct amount of their prescribed food at scheduled times, ensuring fresh water is always available. Waste Management: Regularly cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs outside for bathroom breaks, and proper disposal of waste. Exercise: Engaging in appropriate physical activity based on the pet's breed and needs, such as walks, playtime, or interactive toys. Safety Measures: Secure Environment: Checking for potential hazards like open doors, toxic substances, and securing areas that could be dangerous for the pet. Leash Supervision: Always using a leash when walking dogs outdoors in public areas. Medication Administration: Following strict instructions for administering any prescribed medications. Trust Building: Positive Reinforcement: Using positive training techniques and rewards to build a positive relationship. Gentle Handling: Respecting the pet's boundaries and comfort level, avoiding forceful actions. Communication: Maintaining open communication with the client regarding any concerns or changes in the pet's behavior.

About: Pets have been in my life since I was a little kid. My family has always had a dog and I have a cat that I take care of like she’s my baby! I’ve always loved animals and being around fur babies. To me pets aren’t just animals you have they are an extension of your family! I work a part time job at the kenwood mall during the summer/seasonally and am a student at UC studying education in hopes of becoming a teacher! My availability is pretty flexible during the week Monday, Wednesday, Friday I only have one class from 11-12:10 so I will be readily available for virtually the entire day. Availability for Tuesday/ Thursday varies because my classes range from 11-2 which isn’t ideal for potty breaks or feedings but am able to negotiate if you have a specific situation that would fit my schedule on those two day. During the weekend im free whenever and can do mornings, overnight care, potty breaks, special feeding care, etc. While at home I let our dog out, give treats, feed, and clean the cat's littler box, feed the cat, replenish the water supply in their fountain, etc. I have a senior dog so playing isn’t in her cards anymore but I’m happy to sit with senior dogs and play with younger dogs. I also love walks and will take your pups for as long of a walk as you’d like. I even walk my cat in a pet stroller when the weather is nice!
