Dog Walking Forestdale

About: I’ve been taking care of peoples pets since I was 14. I have two golden retrievers, one of which I have had since I was 6, so I am experienced with high energy pups! I also have one cat who is a little prickly so I am experienced with difficult cats. My mom says I have a “way with animals” and I would love to meet yours! I am a recent college grad so my schedule is pretty open as I look for a full time job. I can work weekends and weekdays- day or night! Pets in my care are always guaranteed a fun time! I am energetic and love to play. I always stick to regular feeding and bathroom times to ensure the best care!

“We had a last minute cancelation for a dog sitter at the house and Kaitlyn was able to fill in last minute! Our dogs are so anxious and getting them accustomed to knew people is always a challenge. Kaitlyn was so patient and kind they ended up warming right up to her. She sent us daily updates while we were gone with pictures which we loved receiving!!! We will definitely be using Kaitlyn again!”

About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember from goldendoodles, corgis, and now a collie. We have also had cats for as long as I can remember as well. I’ve also done some pet sitting for family friends & neighbors for years. I’m slowly taking on dogs again for the moment. Your fur babies will be my number one priority. They will be well taken care of and given all the love and attention while you are away. I fully respect if your kitty is indoors only and take safety into account when I have to leave and go to work. I take no offense if your cat is shy and hides all the time THAT’S OKAY sometimes it just takes time.

About: I'm new on Rover, but over the past 15 years, I have provided dedicated pet sitting services for a wide variety of families, including those living on military bases. My experience spans everything from large, powerful breeds to timid rescues to small dogs with big personalities (yes, "little dog syndrome" included!). This extensive background, combined with owning a high energy Brittany Spaniel and a gentle Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, has given me a deep, well rounded understanding of different breed temperaments, sizes, and personalities, from confident big dogs to nervous rescues to feisty little ones. I know how to build trust with a rescue that needs extra patience, redirect a small dog's big attitude, and safely manage a large dog's strength and energy. Whether your dog needs vigorous exercise, specialized attention, or careful adherence to specific neighborhood boundaries, I bring the experience, trust, and reliability needed to keep your pets safe, happy, and completely at ease. I operate on a highly flexible schedule, allowing me to adapt completely to whatever your pup's routine looks like. Because I work with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to dedicate plenty of time and structured care to your dog. Whether they need energetic play sessions, a long walk to explore, or just a cozy spot on the couch to relax, I adapt completely to whatever your pup's routine looks like. When your pup is with me, you can expect regular text updates and plenty of cute photos so you can have total peace of mind! Safety is my absolute top priority, and I treat every guest pup with the exact same vigilance and care that I give my own two dogs. Because I have 15 years of pet sitting experience including caring for pets throughout different communities I am highly disciplined, respect home rules, and am deeply familiar with maintaining strict safety guidelines and neighborhood boundaries. In My Care & Environment: 📍 Supervised and Secure: Pets under my care are never left unattended in unsecured areas. I am extremely mindful of door safety, ensuring pups are secure before any entryways are opened. 🐾 Tailored to Their Needs: With a high energy Brittany and a gentle Cavalier of my own, plus years of experience with large breeds, rescues, and small dogs with big personalities, I know how to keep energetic dogs safely stimulated, help nervous rescues settle in and feel secure, and give small or sensitive dogs the patience and structure they need to feel completely protected and relaxed. 📸 Clear Communication: I believe trust is built through transparency. You will receive regular check ins, updates, and photo updates so you always know your baby is safe, happy, and thriving. 📋 Strict Adherence to Routines: Whether your pup has specific dietary restrictions, precise medication schedules, or distinct boundary training rules, I follow your instructions down to a T. My goal is to provide a reliable, peaceful, and incredibly safe environment so you can travel with absolute peace of mind!

About: I strictly follow your dog’s personal and walking routines to prevent any anxiety, while sending frequent photo updates so you can travel completely worry free. Working from home allows me to easily blend my day with your dog’s needs, offering frequent play and potty breaks and endless cuddles while working. By staying at your place, I minimize your dog’s anxiety. I provide dedicated overnight care, plenty of playtime, and frequent updates so you feel connected.

About: I have my own dog named Oakley and she is my best friend. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as neighbors’ pets, giving me experience with different animals, personalities, and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like family. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and pets with different needs, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, especially after a long day of work. I love coming home and spending time with animals—seeing a happy pet after a long day is honestly the best reward there is. I’m happy to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve. I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m responsible, attentive, and make sure pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away.

“I have been having Marc walk our very strong puppy for a couple of months and I am so glad. He is reliable, kind, and knowledgeable. I like the way he is training our excitable girl along the way and she loves him.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and reptiles my whole life. I am a reliable, English teacher who loves long walks after school with my dog! In the summer, I have a lot of time available. Teaching has always been my passion and it definitely helps me become a patient caretaker to my dog and the lovable pets I watch! I currently have summers off due to my teaching schedule. During the school year I am available anytime after 4pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I can easily crate your pet if needed- we also have a fenced in yard that easily holds both of our medium sized dogs. 🐾

“Eliza has been walking my dog for over a year. She is punctual, great communicator, reliable and responsible. My dog absolutely adores her! He gets so excited when we tell her she’s walking him. She has also helped us when we needed dog services outside of our weekly walking schedule. I highly recommend Eliza for pet services.”

About: I have only watched dogs a couple of times. I had a dog growing up, but mainly cats. I am definitely more of a cat lover, but I’m trying to give dogs a chance! I have a retail job that has a sporadic schedule. I am just looking for a side gig for every now and then. To get exercise and be outside in the summer is a bonus :) I have a fenced yard and a furry friend to have fun with! I have a big open space and lots of comfy places to sleep. I have a dog and cat friendly home!

About: I am a physical therapist who has a passion for working with people, however, I interact with people quite often. SO, what I really enjoy is making the time to cuddle or walk with furry friends any chance I can get. As a former doctoral student, I have learned how to manage time well, organize and prioritize. I have over 8 years of experience dog sitting for family members and these dogs include small breeds (Coton de Tulear and Dachshund), medium breeds (Beagle/Australian Sheperd mix) and large breeds (Pitbull/Boxer mix, Boxer, and Lab/Pitbull mix). I have administered medication on a strict schedule, bathed, walked and snuggled with all of these pups, showing nothing but love and dedication. I take all safety precautions to ensure gates are closed when necessary, human food is placed far out of reach, and all doors are shut that lead to tempting, tasty objects such as shoes and remotes. My experience with a variety of breeds and sizes makes me stand out, as well as my ability to handle high energy dogs who may appear confrontational at first. If you choose me to watch your fur babies, there is no doubt that they will be in good hands with someone who is dedicated to ensuring they are comfortable, happy and well taken care off. I have a very flexible schedule, I am in between jobs at the moment, so as long as I have enough notice, I am willing to make anything work! At my house I have to flexibility to take the dogs out as needed, I have a dog currently who is friendly with others. In my clients’ homes, I respect the client’s instructions and can perform any task they need! I respect the home and privacy as I have also had Rover sitters in my home and would want someone trustworthy.

About: Hi, my name is Taylor. I’m a 23 year old nurse who works evenings at a rehab unit. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have a 6 month old very friendly, gentle and kind German Shepherd who I have trained on my own. Since I have most mornings off, I thought I could use my free time playing with other dogs, feeding, walking or as desired. Will runwith dogs if they enjoy jogging. Love grooming animals. Also if wanted more puppy/dog interactions, my Shepherd could go for walks as well or play in the yard for socialization or energy exertion. I am good with all dogs, all shapes and sizes and I’m strong for my size so bring on the big dogs who like to pull or jump. Excited to meet you and your furry friends!
