About: Active dog walker specializing in long, engaging walks for high-energy dogs. I keep pups safe, stimulated, and well-exercised every time. I enjoy what I do, and the dogs do too. I have plenty of spare time outside of school since I'm in my senior year and already passing my classes and as an athlete it would be nice to make some money while going on walks I have a pitbull and three cats that I take care of, their names are Rosie, Oliver, Missy, and Sasha, Rosie's the dog and although she's very strong and energetic I can do more than handle her

“Batgirl loved her walks with Hanna!”

About: Ive had dogs ever since i was little so i have a lot of experience! i currently have 1 dog and 2 cats that i love to take on walks and care for. i would be thrilled to help others and care for their pets when needed. feel free to reach out! I am in college and have a part time job, during weekends and summer i'm pretty open but during the week days of the school year, timing may have to be flexable I only care for animals outside of my house due to all the pets i have in my home ! i can give basic care, oral medications, take on walks, and prepare mental stimulating games for high energy dogs.

About: I have cared for dogs all of my life; many different dogs have been through my home, with different dispositions and character. I worked training dogs with Guiding Eyes for the Blind for about 4 years. During this time, I raised puppies and taught them basic house manners, socialization, and how to walk and behave. I worked with dogs from 2 months to 2 years and have given them the skills needed to guide! I currently have two house dogs, a rescue and a yellow lab. I can handle dogs big and small. If requested, I can bring them to the Metroparks or beach for a break. If you have a younger dog I can also work with them on basic training during our time together. I would love to spend time helping to take care of your dog. I am a medical student currently on break! Therefore, I have plenty of time to come spend with your pup and am available at all times throughout the day. Please book with me based on what works best for your schedule! Of note, I will be beginning a class soon that requires me to be in school in the mornings, but am very free otherwise. Caring for pets is my first concern! I follow each client’s directions exactly and love when I am left with a list of important times and notes for their dog. I prefer having a meet and greet, especially if I will be house sitting the pup so I can have a good handle on where things are and each dog can meet me and get used to me. I also send updates to owners via text or the Rover app so you can stay in touch with your pets.

“Keerie is a great dog walker for our Mabel. Mabel loves her weekly long walks and snuggles and I love Keerie’s responsiveness, timeliness and communication. Keerie is a true animal lover who I highly recommend.”

About: I have been dog and cat sitting for multiple families since I was in high school (2017). I am my family’s “go to” person for watching their fur babies! I can watch multiple dogs/cats at once and will send updates (pictures and videos) with how the pets are doing. I love taking care of them and treat them like my own! I have a flexible schedule at this time and can be available during the week! I can be available on the weekend as well if needed. I have a Border Collie/Bernese Mountain dog mix named Bear and he is super friendly with other dogs and cats. I take him on walks and to the dog park and also get him pup cups I go for a coffee run! I love to make sure he is having fun and getting time playing outside whenever he wants!

About: I have 6 years of hands-on experience walking and handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I worked as a veterinary assistant for 1.5 years caring for dogs and cats. Prior to this I spent 3 years at a shelter specializing in abused pit bulls. I’m comfortable with high-energy, strong, and rescue dogs, and I also have work experience as a kennel technician caring for cats. Whatever their personality type or energy level, my goal is to make your pets feel safe, understood, and cared for like they’re my own. Im currently in the processing of completing a 10 week pet grooming course that i attend Mon-Fri, 9-4. So, I will be available for house sitting on weekdays, 5 pm to 7:30 am. I can house sit and provide constant care on the weekends if needed. I can walk dogs or do check-ins any day of the week, however Mon-Fri i am only available in the early morning and also after 5pm. I will keep your pets' home environment, clean, safe and calm. For kitties, I can clean litter boxes, follow specific feeding/play routine or simply just be a calm caring presence. For dogs, I can also follow any feeding or enrichment routines you may have, nothing is too elaborate or complex! I have much experience caring for animals in need of highly specific care. I live an active lifestyle so i will have no problem wearing out your puppy or higher energy dog! I can do brisk walks or even runs. I also have a special place in my heart for older pups. I pay especially close attention if a dog is elderly or arthritic. I will never make them feel rushed or forced and I will let them set the pace for the day, depending on their mood and energy level.

“Nathan did a great job with my new rescue dog who was scared and timid of a stranger in the home. He was patient and able to win him over to make a new friend. Will definitely use Nathan in the future.”

“We are so grateful for Abby! She has a very flexible schedule and is able to walk Sadie when we need. She is very communicative and lets us know when she is on the way and leaving with any other updates from the walk. The first week we booked her, Sadie wasn’t feeling well and took good care of her and kept us updated on how she was doing! It made us feel much better about leaving her at home. Not to mention Abby is great with Sadie! We will definitely book walks with her again! Thank you Abby!”

About: I love animals & enjoy tending to their needs. Whether I have to trick them to take meds, walk or play fetch, I love it. I usually clean houses in the mornings, but I always make time for pets! I offer drop in visits, play time, feedings, & overnight stays. I prefer to watch pets at their home so they feel comfortable & don’t have to endure too many changes. They’ll be right at home.

“Josie is awesome! She communicated wonderfully and truly bonded with our pup. Will be using her services again!!”
