Dog Walkers in Fabius, MI

About: Ive taken care of cats and dogs for friends and family since I was young and currently have 5 of my own! Three of which since they were babies and three rescues! I currently work 5 days a week, but my hours vary and can work around whatever you may need! For at stays at my house, my husband is usually home when I am not! I have a fenced yard and plenty of open space inside as well. All of my animals have been socialized their whole lives and love meeting new friends!

About: For several years I owned a Doggy B and B where the dogs were part of my family. There were no cages or crates which the owners really appreciated. They slept in bed with me, jumped and lounged on all the furniture, watched TV, ate plenty of homemade treats, went swimming in the pool and don't forget the car rides to the park and river. Every weekend I would shop for new, safe and tough toys. We celebrated holidays and birthdays with homemade pupcakes, presents and costumes. They also got a "report" card saying how their day was and what they did that day or weekend. There were lots of pictures taken and shared too. Areas and toys were thoroughly inspected each day to ensure a safe and fun playtime. I love pets! All kinds of them. Your pet will get my undivided attention. I bring toys & treats plus send lots of pictures while you're away. That way you can enjoy our pawty too. Since I can't have pets in my home, I'll come to your pet's home. I care for them like they are mine. Give them lots of pets, play with toys inside & outside, walk them on a leash several times a day, watch TV with them & most importantly, share the bed at night. I want your pet to feel comfortable & loved by me.

“Nikki’s genuine passion for animals is evident in my dog’s reaction every time they see her. Just the simple act of coming to the house to get them makes them ecstatic. They can hear a car as soon as it enters our driveway, and when they see her car, they start barking and howling and wanting their leash on. Just the little bit of time she spends with them has really changed their activity level at home. Nikki is their new friend and they love her so much.”

About: I have grown up with tons of animals I have had so many dogs growing up from blood hound to labs to rat terriers to Boston! I love dogs and cat! I am a nursing major, so during the summer I’m pretty much free! I have a wedding over summer but other than that nothing else! I would like clear instructions from the owners of what they are like with other animals as well as the dogs normal routine so I can perform it to the best of my ability!

“Mckala is great! She walked my dog this week and it was very apparent that she truly loves pets. She has been very accommodating and considerate to mine and River's needs. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”

About: I've lived around dogs for most my life, with a range of sizes and needs. From small Pugs who snore the night away to Great Danes who think they are still a puppy. Have a high energy pupper who needs someone to keep up no worries. Currently I work part time until August 19th when I go back to the classroom. But until that time I'm mostly available all week long. I'm mostly looking at doing walks and check ins at this time as I have a number of home projects that would make boarding difficult.

About: Hi all! My experience with pets begins from early on, as I’ve always had my own pups! Through adopting a variety of different breeds, I have learned so much about animal behavior and how to achieve each individual need. Growing up, I had a Cocker Spaniel, who taught me how to love through their lively and adoring personalities. After I moved out from my parents, my husband and I adopted a Shar Pei, Kimo, who taught me to never stop fighting for the highest level of medical care to support his needs. After his passing to the rainbow bridge, I rescued a Border Collie, who brought back my energetic and perky personality. When I realized she needed more space to run and achieve her highest potential, I re-homed her to a family member, who loved her dearly. I currently have two furry friends, Phineas (a Bichon Frise mix) and Kumba (a Mini Goldendoodle). Phineas was our rescue baby, who taught me patience and admiration as he had numerous medical issues upon adoption. Today, I surround myself with their love, and provide them my utmost fondness. Through daily walks, enrichments activities,  and tons of cuddles, I support my doggos in every way possible. Beyond my pets, I have experience as an SPCA volunteer, working with countless dogs of a variety of breeds in achieving walks and play yard experiences. The SPCA showed me that every dog deserves a chance because every pup has its own special place in our lives. I’m excited to expand my love for animals to your furry family, and embrace each of their quirks as it feeds my heart and soul when I have a positive interaction with our beloved pets! I can’t wait to hear from you all! Thank you :) As a stay at home mom, I have lots of time to spare during the weekdays to care for your furry friends, ensuring I fulfill all their needs with lots of extra love! Since I am currently working on flexible projects in my home, I have free time to play, walk, and wash dogs. I would love to care for your pet during my weekdays as I have optimal time to give your pets the attention they crave. Within each of my clients home, I work to provide individual, quality care to achieve each pets personal needs. I take pride in discussing each animals behavior, favorite activities, needs, and interests to make sure I provide the highest possible level of support for each furry family. I hope to care for your loving pets within the comfort of your home, yard, and where your dog is comfortable being walked. In regards to specifics, such as crating, handing out enriching activities, or making extra time to play fetch, I will work hard to achieve all needs that you desire. I am able to take your pet for walks down your street or travel to a safe walking environment, whichever works best for you and the happiness of your pet!

About: Now in Elkhart, IN! I first started out in the dog world working in doggy daycares. I started to realize there’s a huge amount of wonderful dogs missing out on fun simply because they don’t fit daycare or dog park standards. I was watching dogs get turned away for creating problems out of boredom or stress due to the chaotic environment. I saw owners leaving confused and dogs leaving misunderstood and even labeled. Every dog deserves to be out and about! That’s when I started my own walking/exercise business out of St. Charles MO. Six years later and we’ve had a BLAST! I provide customized outings that cater to your dog and what they love most. Outings build confidence, burn energy, enforce good behavior and teach new skills. We explore a variety of activities like biking, hiking, swimming, dry land mushing and frisbee. We have fun with strengths and work on weaknesses. I am looking forward to bringing the fun to the dogs of IN! 2 hour field trips are available at $50/outing I offer three different services: neighborhood walk, field trip and day care - on the go! Neighborhood Walks consist of exploring anywhere within walking distance of your home. They can be booked for 30mins - 1.5 hr. Field Trips allow for more exploring, more exposure training and more intense exercise. We will drive to a park away from home. These outings are 2hrs. $50 first dog; $35 each additional Daycare -on the go! is the full package. We go all over! This is a 5hr day from time of pickup to drop off. Daycare - on the go! is a group outing where your dog will meet and build a relationship with two - three other day camp dogs. They spend the day together as a group hiking, swimming, biking, exploring, playing and training! My daycare dogs have more park patches than most people! Solo daycare options are available as well in case your dog does not particularly enjoy other four legged friends. $80/dog I have been so incredibly lucky to run my dog Field Trip and Daycare - on the go! business for the past six years successfully and safely in MO.

“Sonny did a great job with Coco. She communicated well during all the visits and gave Coco lots of affection. Will definitely book her again!”

About: Throughout my life I have cared for two cats and a Bichon-Frise/Poodle Mix. I was involved in caring for my dog from the day he came to us: showing him how to use stairs within those first couple of days and teaching commands for the next couple of years. Inevitably he aged, and over time I developed a familiarity with handling the many facets of caring for an aging dog: arthritis, anxiety, mobility challenges, and mood shifts. I learned the tricks for keeping him calm in the car, and those for getting him to take his medications. In all those years I consistently played with him in our fields, took him for walks, and ignored his grouching when I bumped him in his sleep. I love all animals very much, but as an innately energetic person, and as someone who is convinced (like most) that I had the best dog in the world, I find I bond most quickly and most deeply with dogs. I would be thrilled to meet yours. I am a recent college graduate looking for work while I job search. I do have a part time job, but with enough notice I am happy to arrange my shifts to suit your animal’s needs. I typically work evenings. In general I do my best to follow the pet's pace/lead, prioritizing the animal's comfort whenever possible. I follow provided schedules in a regimented manner, and if a schedule is not provided, then I will develop one myself. I take things like medication management and potty breaks very seriously, aware that when an owner is gone, pets are often stressed, and this stress can exacerbate pain and/or behavioral struggles. Regardless of the weather I am always happy to move and be active, so regular walks/exercise with pets is no trouble. As a pet lover, quality time is never an inconvenience either. I am more than thrilled, if your pet is more of a lounger than a runner, to just sit with them and relax.

We'll be sofa bums and make sure any medications are on time. Is your dog still in training? Show me what they are working on and we'll keep working on it while you travel. Does kitty like to snuggle? Or are they less visible when strangers are around? I will go at their pace. With me, you can trust that your pets are in the hands of someone who will see them as one of their own.

At this time I only offer care in my clients' homes and dog walks in their general area. Depending on the needs I can perform the following: Feed, medicate, continue existing training habits, walk, clean litter boxes, brush, cuddle, and play. If you are traveling I will also water plants, bring in mail, and alternate lights on in the house to appear as someone is home if desired. My house sitting rates include this care with an overnight stay. Mid Day drops ins can be discussed for an additional cost.

About: I am a senior at 65 years old who is available for different time frames to assist you with your pet care needs, dependable, responsible. I can do visitations for your Dogs n Cats, no overnight stays or in house sitting. Thank You~! Currently, at home I take care of my 2 adults cats and one kitten now 10 mths old. Spoiled, very well loved, and cared for. I was a prior dog owner over 65 years of 3 dogs who lived long healthy lives. My cats are indoors, they have a rolling pet crate/pen used outside at times when weather permits. I live rural so its not safe for them to be indoor/outdoor cats. I had dogs all of my life and 3 dogs who were my babies for very long time. A lab for 16 years. A bassador for 13 years. And as a child 4 different dogs. All were well cared for even when having to move to an apartment after a divorce my dogs were often sent to doggie day care and also we visited pet parks as frequently as possible.

“Carolyn is so good with my dog! Even though it was raining, she walked her and also cleaned up the wet paw mess afterwards. We appreciate her so much!”

About: I’ve taken care of my two Labs ever since I was 6 years old, (i’m 21 now) and have been dog sitting and cat sitting the past four summers!! Also I have worked in a vet clinic the past four years as well. I have the special skill of administering medication! I’m currently working part time at the vet clinic in the afternoons and it’s only 2-4 days a week usually. I can dog walk or pet sit in my free time during the day and on weekends. Possibly for a week or so. I unfortunately cannot watch them in my own home due to not having a good yard for them because it has a pool and not much area to run around. And also my dads allergies. I would have to watch them in your home.

About: I've been around animals my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats. In the country, I also had other animals: horses, goats, and ducks. I'm also currently taking care of a Leopard gecko. I feed my pets once in the morning and once at night. I walk my dog in the afternoon and let him off leash when no one is around. My cat is indoors, so I feed her, play with her, and give her space when she needs it. My dog lives in a kennel outside, but I go out to play with him by walking him to an area where he can run free and also playing with him with his toys.

About: I have been taking care of my own pets since elementary school! I would love to care for your pets as my own! Extra love for doodles :) I am currently home for the summer in between years at Hope College. I will be working during the day, however, I can be available to care for pets in the early morning and afternoons/nights. If your pet is able to go upwards of 8 hours without being let out, I’m the perfect overnight sitter for you! I can follow whichever guidelines my client would like. Your fur babies will be very safe and loved while in my care! Wether it is a fenced in yard or walks on a leash, I can guarantee that they will be safe with me :)

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, family have relied on me to walk, feed, bath, enrichment to their pets. My schedule is varied and flexible, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available weekday from 7am-6pm and Saturdays from 6am-2pm. I have a fenced in yard to keep my three fur babies safe, while they run and play. I play with the dogs in my responsibility rain or shine, I am also knowledgeable in many forms of enrichment for dogs.
