Dog Walking Franklin Park

About: I have worked in the pet industry for 16+ years. I have worked as a tech assistant, kennel worker, dog walker and caretaker in 2 veterinary practices. I have owned an operated a small dog grooming business. I have boarded many of my clients dogs in my residence. I am reliable, trustworthy, kind, compassionate and funny. I have a little Yorkie that is truly my heart! I adore him and could not imagine life without him. I LOVE dogs! I always treat any dog that is in my care as if they were my own. They are a part of the family and I can assure you that this is how they will be treated in my care. I consider it an honor to be able to take care of doggies.

About: My name is Becky and I moved to Austin in 2018 from Miami. I grew up with indoor/outdoor cats and smaller dogs. I work a 8-4 Monday-Friday job but am available after 4:30pm anywhere in Austin and during the week and midday for South Austin visits/walks. I currently the proud parent of an orange tabby and regularly dog and cat sit. I love a chance to meet a new buddy. I am a quick drive to anywhere in Central Austin and work down south for an after work or lunch hour walk. Always looking for an excuse to go for a walk and I would love to show your fur baby around. Message me to see if I can care for your pet while away! - Becky I have a cat and regularly feed and clean litter box and exercise him. I love when I’m watching a dog to go out on a quick and then longer walk in the day. I like to give the animal the first time I meet them some space and let them approach me. I always want to make sure the animal knows I’m here as well for their socialization

“Jacob was great with Hank! Stepped in last minute and did a wonderful job. Great communication and very easy going. Will definitely use again and highly recommend”

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life (also fish, hamsters, mice, and a hedgehog). From puppies and kittens to elderly chihuahuas and grouchy senior cats, I have handled it all. I routinely care for pets for my friends and family and am happy to care for your babies too. I'm recently retired so I have a lot of time on my hands! I'm happy to administer medication or cater to your pet in whatever ways they need. I recently retired from my full-time job and will be mostly at home doing a little contract work here and there. I already care for my own five pets (or six if you count the fish) and can easily add yours to the mix. I will listen to what your pet needs and accommodate whatever it is they need/want. I am used to dealing with a diverse group of pets and providing each of them with what they need.

“Gil is a great dog walker! Very friendly and understanding of dogs. You can tell her really cares about your pet. I appreciate the updates he gives and the effort he puts in!! : )”

About: I’ve personally taken care of dogs and cats for over the last 15 years and currently have my own pup! I have never met a dog I didn’t immediately love and my partner calls me a dog whisperer because of how great I can bond with them. I currently work full time at Dirty Dog - Grooming and Boarding so my schedule is very fluid and I’m often available during the day on weekdays as well as weekends. My partner also works from home so there is always an extra set of helping hands when needed! In my time off, I enjoy reading, paddle boarding on the lake, practicing yoga, and a new hobby of mine - rock painting! I would love to add taking care of other people’s fur babies to my list of activities (: In my own home, my dog and dogs I’m sitting will get frequent walks and visits to the local dog park. We also have plenty of space and toys for animals to enjoy themselves inside my home. In terms of trust, I will always follow a pets lead when it comes to how they’re feeling and what their needs are. Making sure an animal feels comfortable and safe will always be top priority.

About: Heeyyy! I’m Nicci, a life long Austinite, I’m a Mom to two minions, two cats, and a dog. I’m an artist who enjoys going on long walks (hopefully with your dog…🤞) I’m really flexible schedule wise. I don’t mind administering medication if needed. I’m good with all stages of life - puppy/kitties to seniors and anyone in between. I would be happy to help you out with whatever companion care needs you may have. I’m a single mom working the hustle job life. So in some ways I’m a stay at home mom and in other ways I’m a never stop working kind of mom with the privilege of working around the clock when it works best for me. This means I’m home during the weekdays for a great majority of the day, weekends I work more during the days but nothing crazy and I’m home every night of the week. I walk my kids to school every morning and then I continue with a lengthy walk for myself. Your dog would love it! My apartments have a very large fenced in dog park and multiple designated dog potty areas. I’m a leashed walker unless in a fenced in area where they can run and play.

“Emma did a great job of taking care of our sweet girl. She was very communicative and kindly brought our packages inside when we were away. Thank you so much-highly recommend!”

“I was incredibly nervous about leaving my two dogs in the care of someone else, as one of them has lots of anxiety issues and can be reactive with people and other dogs. But Dale did incredible and had no issues. He was super patient with my reactive dog and was super mindful about all my concerns. I was so so anxious and left a whole essay of information/instructions he needed to know and he made sure to keep all of that in mind. I will definitely keep him in mind for future sitter needs.”

About: Hi! My girlfriend and I are dedicated and experienced Rover sitters with a true passion for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve spent years caring for pets through Rover and beyond, building a strong reputation for reliability, attentiveness, and creating a safe, fun environment for every dog I watch. One thing that makes my care unique is that my partner and I work together as a team. With both of us present, your dog gets double the attention, supervision, and playtime. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just keeping your pup company, we make sure they feel comfortable, engaged, and loved at all times. I have experience with: • High-energy dogs that need lots of activity • Senior dogs requiring extra patience and care • Maintaining routines (feeding schedules, medications, etc.) We treat every dog like family and focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication while you’re away so you always know your pet is in good hands. If you’re looking for dependable, attentive care with plenty of love and playtime, we’d be happy to help! I like to take the pups to zilker or just spend time with them at home. Don’t mind going on walks if it’s a nice day out. I make sure to play with them, feed them routinely and take them on walks. Open to any other suggestions if needed of course. Thanks

About: Growing up with pets my whole life, I understand the responsibility their care takes, and how important it is for pet owners to trust their pet care taker. I previously had a dog walker for my German Shepard, who always joked he was honored to be our boy's 3rd favorite person (after my mom and I). It always warmed my heart to know he was in such good and caring hands. It has inspired me to bring that same level of trust and love to you and your fur baby. I can't wait to become their 2nd or 3rd favorite person! I work remotely and love physical activity. One of my main drivers of becoming a dog walker and pet care taker is to bring some furry joy and movement into my boring work days while also being able to give owners piece of mind that they have someone reliable and trustworthy to help care for their furry family members. Pet care within a client's home requires immense trust and understanding. It is my duty to ensure I understand the boundaries between me being in your house and your pet's space along with expectations for pet care.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little, always willing to take in animals no matter the species. Dogs, cats etc. every animal as always had a home even if was for a short period. I work Monday through Friday at chick fil a between 4-10:30pm and Saturday through Sunday between 4-11:30pm I have pets of my own, 2 cats and I used to own dogs I do well to take care of animals, long walks and trips to parks, play time! Animals can be boarded, if your dog or cat as specific diet I expect you to provide the food for the animal :)

About: I started pet sitting when I was 18 to earn some extra money in college, and I’ve been doing it ever since. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes, and I’m great at following special instructions. Additionally, photography is a hobby of mine, so there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll get some good pics of your pet in the process. I’m currently in graduate school, so I have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule, whether it’s during the week or over the weekend. I know how important your pet is as a member of your family! I’m happy to meet their needs, whether it’s walking, playing, belly-rubbing, or comforting them.

“Andrew was great and my pup was so calm and relaxed after her walk. Andrew also went above and beyond by refilling her water bowl. Will definitely rebook.”

“Amie is amazing! She saved the day when I needed a last-minute, late-night walker for my pup. She was super patient as I struggled to figure out my remote security system too! And she showed my pup a lot of love. Choose her!!!!”

About: I may be new to professional pet care, but I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Over the past year, I have helped care for family members' pets by walking them, feeding them, giving them attention, and making sure they felt safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a different personality, and I always try to be patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs. I am responsible, dependable, and committed to following your care instructions carefully so your pet receives the best possible care. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I have availability on many weekdays as well as weekends, and I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I enjoy being active, so taking dogs on walks fits naturally into my routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding walking routes, feeding, medications if needed, and any special preferences. During walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and make sure pets stay safe and secure at all times. I believe in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and respect, just as if they were my own.

“Great dog walker. Always reliable and shows up when needed. They’ve been walking Sharon since she was a baby puppy, so they’ve been part of her routine for a long time now. Consistent 30-minute walks and solid communication with regular updates. Really trustworthy and a huge help overall. Would definitely recommend.”

“Allison was very attentive and detailed with her care. She took the time to understand my dogs needs, you can tell she truly cares. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of high energy puppies that love to run around as well as low energy dogs that love to play ball on repeat. I’ve raised puppies and have 3 of my own. Whether is a nice long walk or an hour game of fetch and running around I got you covered. On Tuesday-Thursday I am available from 6am - 12pm. On Friday-Saturday I am available all day. On Sundays I am available from 6am - 2pm. Food and water bowl are constantly available and filled but can be adjusted for scheduled feeding. Access to outside and indoor playtime is no problem.

“Makayla is as great! Communication was easy, she was great with our golden, Easy, and could tell that she genuinely cares a lot about animals. Highly recommended!”
