Dog Walking Franklin Park

“Jessica was a huge help for me with doing a drop in visit to give my English Setter a break as I’m at work. She was excellent with communication and using the Rover app for updates. I would definitely use Jessica again”

“Ayla took great care of our dog Pretzel! She kept us updated throughout the way and was always so kind with Pretzel, even asking to leave extra water for her before she left! Would highly recommend and will be reaching out to Ayla for more walks in the future!!”

“Kate has been wonderful with walking my boy. She communicates well, is reliable, flexible and all around a good person. Unfortunately we are moving, I can only hope our next walker is as caring & good.”

About: Dog walking & sitting was my very first job, and has always remained my favorite. I am a mom to a 2 year old Cavalier King Charles boy but have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including older ones who require medications. I only work very part-time and am looking to make dog walking more a part of my weekly life! They say a job should be what you love doing and I love taking care of doggos. I can make your dog's care a priority, dedicating time and focus on them. I am punctual and trustworthy, and offer clear and consistent communication. I understand how it feels to leave your dog's care in someone else's hands. Sometimes we just have to! I will show up to your home on time, taking your doggo for the exercise they need, and making sure they have ample bathroom and play time.

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages. I have also managed dogs with severe anxiety and certain health issues. I am a college student so until May I am limited to weekends. After May, I will be available workdays and weekends during the day and at night. I have confident skills in understanding dog and cat language from past experiences. I am also great at handling and crating dogs at their own comfort level.

“Shaina is amazing as always! She is reliable and capable, I know Munch is getting the exercise and training that he needs while I'm away. Munch loves going for his walks with her!”

“Mira was wonderful with Tucker. She was always punctual, sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. We appreciate her help very much!”

About: Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile. Choosing care for your animal(s) can be a difficult decision. You want them to be in the very best hands while you're away. It's my goal to provide just that! My name is Ashley and I am an animal lover. My own pet sitter calls my house a little zoo. I have four cats, two frogs, and fish! I foster cats and kittens for two local rescues in my free time and get my puppy love through Rover. I am a nursing student and have a flexible schedule. I am located in the McCandless area, near North Park--a fantastic location for walking dogs! Whether you’re looking for someone to offer drop-in visits to check in on your animals while you’re away or would prefer that someone stay with them over night, don’t hesitate to reach out! I’d love to meet your furry (or non-furry!) family member(s) and be their best friend while you’re away. I am currently a nursing student and have a flexible schedule! I am available for drop-ins, walks, or home stays to provide company for your pet(s)! I am able to offer pet care in my client's homes. This enables me to maintain existing routines for your pet(s) in an environment they are already familiar with and comfortable in.

About: I am a 19-year-old animal lover with over 6 years of pet-sitting experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. My passion for animals started at a young age, and beginning at 13, I regularly walked dogs for several neighbors. Through pet sitting, I have gained experience with animals of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to horses and farm animals. I am dedicated to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾 I currently work part-time at my family’s coffee shop, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I am often available for early morning visits before work, midday visits after my morning shift (typically around noon), and evening care as needed. I am reliable, responsible, and happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that meets their pets’ needs. I also have a friendly bulldog who loves meeting new people and dogs. If your dog enjoys socializing and you’re comfortable with it, I can bring her along for company during visits. Of course, your pet’s comfort and preferences always come first, and I will only do this with your permission.

About: Hi! I’m Nicole, I have a huge 💜 for animals, and I treat every pet like family, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well-exercised while you’re away. I enjoy long walks, interactive play, and lots of cuddles. I understand how important routine and comfort are for pets, so I stick to feeding schedules, provide plenty of attention, and send daily updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether your pup needs energetic play, gentle walks, or extra snuggles, I’m here to make their day fun and stress-free. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I intentionally build my schedule around it. I have a flexible structure that allows me to prioritize walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with each pet. I plan my mornings and evenings around feeding schedules and walks, and I’m available throughout the day for check-ins, playtime, and updates. I also limit the number of pets I take on at once to ensure each one gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s a daily walk or overnight sitting, I make sure every pet gets reliable, attentive care as part of my regular routine—not as an afterthought. Promo Code for first time services: https://www.rover.com/sit/nicolb40715 I believe pets deserve the same care, patience, and attention as humans. Every walk, snack, and cuddle is an opportunity to make them feel loved and secure. Your pet’s happiness is my top priority!

About: Caring for pets has always been part of my life, not just something I do, but something I truly love. I share my home with my big-hearted Golden Retriever Lucy Goose who brings joy, structure, and a lot of personality into my daily routine. Through her—and the many pets I’ve cared for—I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, medications, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also had the joy of hosting pets with special needs, recently including a vivacious little pug puppy with epilepsy. Providing a calm, consistent, and loving environment is something I take pride in. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, respect, and genuine affection—just like one of my own. While away, your pet is my family and I am fiercely protective of my family. Hi, I’m Jess! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to a sweet Golden Retriever who’s very much part of my everyday life. Caring for pets is something that feels natural to me—it’s woven into my daily routine, not something squeezed in as an afterthought. My Lucy Goose is a large Golden Retriever with the sweetest, most gentle “little dog energy.” She’s very social, kind, and welcoming, and does wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. She has happily shared her space with smaller dogs and special-needs pets, and all interactions are always supervised to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I work during the week for about 6–8 hours a day, and outside of that time my life revolves around walks, fresh air, playtime, and creating a calm, loving home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, and I’m intentional about making sure every pet in my care gets plenty of attention, affection, and consistency. I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their quirks, honoring their routines, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, backyard playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can truly relax. My home includes a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor play, and I supervise pets closely throughout the day. I also have a few pup gates to ensure safe calm and private pet feedings or if quiet time is needed. I also use cameras for added peace of mind and awareness while I am out and about. Whether pets are in my home or yours, I follow routines carefully, respect boundaries, and keep a watchful eye on behavior, comfort, and wellbeing. I communicate openly and provide updates because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and cared for.

About: I’ve had a dog that I primarily took care of for the last 14 years, and now have had two cats of my own for 3. I also fostered animals during college in my home for the four years I attended. I have volunteered at both animal friend and angels for animals in Ohio! I work from home currently and am happy to be flexible with most scheduling needs! I can usually accommodate most times during the week, especially for walking! I am very comfortable doing whatever makes you and your pet most comfortable in your home! I am confident that whatever needs to be done I can do. I also have a pet with special needs and am able to give meds, and other things that might need done.

“Nicolle took great care of Max, and he had a ton of fun on his walk with her!”

About: As a compassionate animal enthusiast with over 25 years of experience, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care for your pets. Drawing from my diverse background as a mother, military veteran, and preschool teacher, I have built strong caregiving skills. In addition, in the past I have worked professionally as a veterinary technician for three years. Throughout my life, I have had the pleasure of owning various pets, including cats, dogs, chinchillas, hedgehogs, fish, pygmy goats, guinea pigs, turtles, and leopard geckos. Currently, I care for an English bulldog, a cat, and three guinea pigs. Having relocated to the Pittsburgh area in June 2024, I am excited to offer customized care solutions for your pet. As a preschool teacher with summers off, I am well-suited to provide your pets with the love, attention, and care they require, treating them with the same kindness I show my own pets. My availability during the school year is limited to nights, weekend, and holiday breaks. I am currently working as a preschool teacher. This gives me the whole summer off which allows me to be very flexible to care for your pets when you can't. I am committed to keeping your pet on the schedule you and your family want for them. All while keeping them safe and loving them.
