Dog Walking Fork

About: I have always found comfort in having animals around me, when I was younger I loved digging in the dirt and looking through the potato bugs. My grandmother always had 2 dogs in the house… labs, Brittany’s, and now two mutts.. She also had parakeets that she let fly around the house before she got hunting dogs. My mom and I lived in apartments and we always had cats, I loved taking the time to learn all of their individual personalities and gain their trust. I have helped with kitten and puppy training for friends and family. I also have reptile experience- I have cared for iguanas and now my son and I have 2 pet geckos named Kenny and Copper. I currently work part time for my fiancés business so I have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets needs! I live in a very nice condo complex with a beautiful trail right behind the building, it perimeters the woods, there’s also a ton of walking trails around me to take your pups on new adventures. I have cleaned homes before, I have been the pet sitter and the house sitter as long as there are instructions I can follow easily and daily. I want to spend my weekends strengthening my bond with animals and providing help to anyone who needs it. My son (Roman) is 6 and very good with all kinds of animals he is very in touch with nature and understands to give plenty of space and time. Providing him with this experience by helping to care for animals and the life around you at such a young age is beautiful to me.

“Chris is wonderful and Buddy loves her! She’s always there during the timeframe set and I never have to worry that he’s in good hands when I’m not there.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Molly was very patient with my questions. We’re still working on training with our dog and she gave great feedback on how the walks went. We appreciated her being flexible with some schedule adjustment and will definitely use her again.”

“Mariah was able to help me out last minute with walking my puppy Maya for me when I was in a bind & I’m so glad she could & that we got to meet her because she has a great energy & now we have someone close to home to call on! You can definitely tell that Mariah is very comfortable with animals upon meeting her & it was only further confirmed by the fact that If was completely evident afterwards too that my pup really had a ball with her on their walk together ! We look forward to having Mariah visit again soon! Thanks so much again Mariah!”

About: As a nurse, caring for others is at the heart of what I do, and I bring that same level of attention, patience, and responsibility to every pet in my care. I work only 2–4 days a week, and there is always an attentive family member at home, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including dogs and other animals, so caring for animals has been a lifelong passion. Those experiences taught me how to understand different pet personalities, needs, and routines from an early age. My family has a 7-year-old Cavapoo named Bentley, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty of walking paths and open green spaces nearby, giving dogs lots of opportunities for exercise, exploration, and fresh air. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. My healthcare background has taught me to be observant, dependable, and detail-oriented, which is especially valuable when caring for senior dogs, following special routines, administering medications, or recognizing changes in behavior. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while ensuring their dogs feel happy, safe, and loved during their stay. 🐾❤️ Caring for fur babies naturally fits into my daily routine. As a nurse, I am flexible with plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. On the days I am home, dogs receive regular walks, playtime, attention, potty breaks, cleaning cages, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for long periods and continue to receive supervision, care, and interaction. My dog, Bentley is family, so daily walks, feeding schedules, exercise, and cuddle time are already built into my routine. I live in a walkable, dog-friendly neighborhood with nearby green spaces, making it easy to provide multiple walks and opportunities for exercise each day. I enjoy maintaining a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and at home while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog is treated like family. Whether in my home or a client's home, I follow their regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I tailor my approach to each dog's temperament whether they are energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or prefer a calm and relaxed environment.

About: 50 plus years of loving care of dogs and cats. Trained retrievers, managed several liters and secured loving homes for puppies. Safe comfortable home for dogs being sitted. My wife a nurse for over 36 years and I are both retired and in good health, enjoy walks which would include dogs under our care.

We will provide close supervision while in our home and on our property , walk with leach on, take loving care of visiting pet as long as with us.

About: I have LOTS of experience handling and caring for dogs and cats (and birds). I am the person that everyone calls when they see an injured animals or lost pet roaming the streets. My love for all things furry (and hairless too) is beyond measurable. I am ready to walk your loved one and make sure they are safe, and getting their excessive! Want a photo of your baby? No problem! Want a video of your baby? No problem! I currently work from home so your pet will never be alone for long periods of time. I am available most days anytime after 10:00 am. If you are looking for a morning dog walk just let me know and I can try to make it work 🙂 I have a fenced in yard. I have two dogs of my own who can easily adapt to your baby with proper introduction :-). I have kids who have learned to respect all animals. You do not have to worry about kids hanging on your pet or pulling their tail. Animals respect is first and foremost in our household. I also have two birds. They are out most of the day but stay perched or hang out on my shoulder.

About: *Please note, I will happily work with furry friends that are outside of my displayed work zone, if that is a situation that works for everyone. I truly am a dog and cat person. Dogs,and cats, are part of our families, and enrich our lives. I will always treat your baby, just as you would. I grew up with dogs. When I begged my mom at 12, and got my own dog, my mom told me I would have to do the work, and my mother doesn’t play. I did the work, trained my puppy to use one side of the yard for potty. She was trained so well, she could be walked off leash, and always responded. My dog had allergy problems, at age 12 I gave my dog allergy shots. As an adult, I lived in apartments, and cats suited my life better. I babysat a few cats, one for a month, and then adopted my first cat. Another cat came for a home to my back door. Both of my cats were raised with 3 kids, harmoniously. My schedule is open, whether you need play and activity for your pets, check-ins, or overnights. Mornings, nights, or weekends, I’m here to help your family! My goal caring for your babies, in their homes, is to keep their lives as stable and consistent as possible. I know how important keeping your fur family’s lives as regular as possible is, when you can’t be there. I love your advice on the details of what your baby/babies wants and needs when you can’t be there.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and my genuine love behind it. I grew up helping my mom care for our cats and cats in need and got my first dog in second grade, which taught me responsibility early on. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and I treat every animal with the same care and compassion I grew up with. As of right now I’m taking a gap year and working part-time in order to figure out what I want to do. Which means I have plenty of time during the day to play with and keep your pet happy! I’ll care for your pets in your home by following the routine given, keeping yours and their space clean, giving them plenty of walks, love, playtime, and attention, and sending regular updates so you always know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and cats. My experience includes providing basic care, feeding, spending quality time with pets, keeping their environment clean, and paying attention to their individual needs. I genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently working part-time and in school so I am available on the weekdays mainly in the morning or early afternoon. If overnight care is needed, then I can stay the night on Friday nights starting at 10pm and can stay until 8am. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special needs or preferences. I keep pets supervised, make sure they have access to fresh water, and maintain a clean and secure environment. I also understand how important it is to earn an owner’s trust, so I communicate regularly with updates and photos and treat every pet with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own.

About: Very experienced pet sitter. I specialize in Boarding services at a very affordable price. I also offer budget options as well. I feel like everyone should be entitled to pet services that fits their financial needs. I am currently a stay at home mom for the next 4-5 years, so I have more than enough free time on my hands at the moment. I have a huge fenced park right behind my apartments so they are able to play all day as needed. In addition to the park, I have a ton of space in my apartment and a friendly dog of my own who loves to play. I have a variety of dog/cat treats and toys!

About: Animals are an integral part of my life. In addition to pet sitting, I have three dogs & two cats of my own and I foster for Coffee & Paws Rescue, Inc. I’ve also cared for wild residents of a rehabilitation facility in Brazil, injured birds at the Tales & Scales Aviary at Cunningham Falls State Park, horses at a local barn where I volunteered as a teen and again when volunteered with rescue horses at The Mule Shack, LLC., the three dogs I lived with growing up (including palliative care for my last dog who I spent 2 years helping through degenerative myelopathy using diapers and a wheelchair), and my friends’ cats. I work a flexible remote schedule, so I can be available almost any time I’m needed. Between my pets and the dogs I’m fostering, I usually have several animals in the house, but I maintain a separate space for boarding furry friends to ensure they’re comfortable while staying with me. I am safety oriented and will do everything in my power to keep your pets comfortable in your absence. I have a cat who takes every opportunity to attempt to escape, so I’m skilled at entering and exiting homes to ensure the animal occupants stay inside unless they’re properly leashed to go out.

About: I've cared for dogs my entire life as an owner. Ive had small dogs, terriers, and their strong will and playfulness to large dogs, ie German Shepard, and their willfulness and loyalty. I love them all and understand how to build trust with a pet. Ive also become a cat owner to tow boys bringing our home pack to 2 dogs and 2 cats. Currently I have a flexible schedule for drop ins during the day or evening. I am glad to feed them, play, and take out for breaks. Available any day except Sundays. Our home has invisible fence and our dogs are trained to remain in the years. We have also had fenced yards in the past. I can and do walk smaller dogs.

About: I am a school teacher and a life-long animal lover and have had pets since I was a young child. I currently have 3 dogs (and a horse). Two of my dogs have their intermediate trick titles and also compete and do well in agility. The third is an older deaf rescue. I am experienced with handling and also training dogs. During the summer, I have worked with a local company for 8 years for dog walking as well as dog/cat sitting for vacation clients. Through word of mouth I've had training clients and hope to add that service through Rover. I also I am fairly new to Rover since my availability depends on when school is in session. I am a teacher so I am available all summer for walks or pet-sitting. I also do days I am off work and some holidays. I am not available during the weekdays when school is in session. I treat clients' dogs like my own. I do prefer a meet and greet before caring for your pet. I will only care for pets in the client's home since I already have 3 dogs of my own. I am quiet and calm with animals to put them at ease. I can take them for a walk, or will play ball or whatever your dog enjoys playing. I can feed your pet, give treats, meds, and always provide fresh water. I am responsible and always show up, stay the full amount of time, and make sure the house is just as I left it. Dogs are always happy to see me. Your dog will get lots of love during my visits.

About: I’m currently training to be a therapist so I have a keen sense for emotions… pets included! I’ve dog sat for family numerous times and am hoping to branch out. I love being around animals, am a very easy guest, and will happily send you any pictures of your pets! I have class 1-9pm on Monday and Wednesday but am mostly free otherwise! I get up early to swim twice a week (Fri and Sat), but can go straight back if needed. I don’t do much, so I’m pretty open! I’m willing to do whatever I can to help the pet feel safe and welcomed. Whether they want to play, rest, eat, or walk, I’m happy to help them out!

About: Hi there! I’m Rowyn, and I have wide availability this Fall. I’d be thrilled to care for your pets and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away!! I’ve spent years looking after the beloved pets of friends, neighbors, and family, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. At home, I currently have two cats, three fish, and a crested gecko. I also have experience with hedgehogs, mice, and bunnies. My skills include administering medication to both cats and dogs, maintaining good hygiene (like grooming and other cleanups), and most importantly providing consistent, attentive companionship! I genuinely love animals and always have fun playing with pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat just wants a cozy lap and some gentle pets, I’m here to help. :’) Feel free to reach out with any questions, or we can schedule a meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! Schedule: As a college student, my schedule varies but I have a wide availability. I can do weekends as well so I should be able to fit around any schedule you require! For drop-in visits I will give your pet(s) food and water, clean litter boxes and handle any messes your pet makes. I will also pet and play with them and just generally check up on them to make sure they're doing okay along with any special needs and attention your pet may require. I can also water house plants or maintain the house if you need me to.

About: I have been pet sitting/walking since I was 9 years old. It is one of the best jobs ever. I love helping out everyone in my neighborhood with their animals all the time. Usually I will go and care for the dogs when families are away which includes any needs you need met for your fur baby. Most regularly I will go and spend time with a dog and give them what they need if you are gone for a long amount of time. I will be open to staying overnight with the dogs or cats if requested. Whether it is extra medical needs or extra attention I will make sure to fulfill their needs. I work on weekdays from 8:45-4:00pm. Sometimes 1-6pm, I work multiple jobs so just let me know what would work best for you! During the mid summer it changes and I work 11:45-6pm until the end of the summer. I am very open with any needs that you have around my work times whether needing a late or early visit in the day, I usually will make it my goal to make sure your dogs get the proper limit of time alone without someone in the house. My family has owned dogs before I was born, and we are fairly educated on canine care. My dog is crate and yard trained. My family strives with having happy and disciplined dogs. We make sure to give our pets, or should I say spoil, lots of toys and love. I have been around dogs my entire life, so I am very understanding of any special needs needing to be met.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a child. Neighbors and friends have always trusted me to look after their pets, knowing the genuine care and affection I provide. Over the years, I decided to turn this passion into a meaningful part of my life. With over 10 years of experience, caring for pets has become more than a job—it is truly my passion. I also have experience training puppies at home, helping them develop good habits and positive behaviors from an early age. I understand that leaving your pet can be difficult, but you can feel confident knowing they will receive the love, attention, and dedication they deserve. I ensure my home is a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment—your pet’s home away from home. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule to ensure timely feeding, regular walks, dedicated playtime, and close observation of each pet’s behavior. On a weekly basis, I carry out hygiene tasks, check supplies, and monitor overall well-being. I focus on maintaining consistency, as it helps reduce stress and supports each pet’s health and happiness. “I provide personalized pet care in both my home and my client’s home, always following each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special needs. In my home, I offer a safe, secure, and pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced yard to ensure dogs can play safely. In a client’s home, I maintain their routine to reduce stress and ensure comfort. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication with regular updates to owners.”

“Thanks Peyton for coming over on short notice and taking such great care of our pup. Loved getting the pics :)”
