Dog Walking Freeport

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with cats and because we were never allowed to have a dog, I would take care of dogs in the neighborhood. I would dog sit, walk them constantly, and would even bathe them. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However the thought of having to put an animal to sleep, kept me from fulfilling that lifelong dream. With two Golden Retrievers of my own Duke 7 years old and Enzo 7 months old who I adore more than life itself, and a cat my life is full. Looking forward to adding more fluffy friends to my life, and maybe even adding some excitement to my dogs life by adding new friends. I currently work full-time, but the majority of my days at work are spent working from home, so my schedule is flexible. The more dogs the merrier ! I will do whatever is necessary to provide the best care when someone else’s baby is in my care. I know what I would want for my dog, so I would treat each animal that is in my care the same way I would treat my own dog with lots of love, treats, walks and playtime!

About: I have been working in animal care for the last 10 years between animal shelters and boarding facilities. I can provide references. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I have experience working with dogs and cats of all temperaments and also have knowledge in administering medications and insulin if needed. I am currently open. I can provide walks, drop ins, baths, nails, transport to and from daycare, whatever is needed! My routine is pretty set once I have a good schedule going! I can follow any instructions left by the client. I am very committed to making sure your pet stays happy and healthy in the time they spend with me.

About: Ive always had a pet my whole life every single one of them has been my best friends! I currently have to animals of my own and they are my babies! I love staying active and being on the move so your furr babies wont get bored! I usually get off work around 12-2 it varies every day! I start work at 7:30 am. I have my whole day so filling in the time with my favorite thing sounds amazing! I have a fenced in yard, I have 2 kitties but they will be put away if another pet is in my home just to keep the stress down for all animals! In your home I will respect every rule you have and make sure your fur baby has company!

About: With over 50 years of experience with a variety of dogs and cats, I bring a patient and loving approach to every pet. I meet! I recently retired after 43.5 years and I am looking forward to part time work that includes spending time with animals of all shapes and sizes! I always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet I care for – including my own! I’m reliable, and treat every animal with patience and respect.

“Isabelle’s love of animals shines thru her smile. My sugar loves her. They had a wonderful tail wagging walk together. It gave me time that I needed and I know sugar was getting special time with a special friend. I will schedule more time with Izzy in the future!”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Maddy! 🐶🐱💕 I’m a caring, dependable pet lover who would be thrilled to take care of your furry family members! I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and spoiled while you’re away. 🥰 I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities — from energetic pups who want to play all day to shy kitties who prefer to take their time warming up. Every pet is different, and I’ll always do my best to follow their normal routines and give them the individual attention they deserve. I can help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, litter box care, and other basic routines. I’m also happy to send plenty of updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your babies are doing well! 📸💕 Whether you need a quick drop-in, regular walks, or someone to care for your pets while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Your pets aren’t “just pets” — they’re family. 🐾💗 I am currently working a part time job that allows me to be available during the days until 3 pm and late at night after 10 pm. I can easily help your animals feel relaxed in their own homes. My cats are refreshed daily with new food and water as well as maintaining my dogs current training and schedule.

About: I've had multiple dogs and cats my whole life and they have all been my best friends! We like to cuddle, go on walks and learn new skills. I'm no stranger to pets of all different personalities and know how to meet them where they are. I'm experienced in providing insulin to dogs and topical treatment to cats. I don't currently have pets of my own but have spent weeks looking after the cats and dogs of friends and family. I love those times that I'm able to bond with their fur babies and would love to get to know yours as well! I currently work remotely and can be available for boarding throughout the week and weekend. I'm available to hangout with your pets, take them on walks or bathroom breaks, feed times or personal enrichment, whatever they may need. I have a backyard that pets can run around in, it is fenced on one side only so they would need to have a long leash for safety. I don't have other pets so they wouldn't have any problems there! If coming to your home I'm happy to go by the rules that you set and the comfort levels that you have. I always find pets do best in their comfort zones anyway and I'm excited to meet them where they are!

“Melissa is so good with our fur baby while we are gone. She gives such detailed reports and makes you feel so comfortable while away from your pets!”

About: Professional dog trainer, not just a sitter – I understand canine behavior, body language, and how to manage dogs safely and confidently. Behavior-aware care – I proactively manage jumping, pulling, barking, and over-arousal instead of ignoring it. As a professional dog trainer, my schedule already revolves around dogs. Pet care is a priority in my day, allowing me to provide structured routines, supervised activity, and mental enrichment. Dogs in my care are integrated into my daily routine and receive consistent attention, not just drop-in care. I I provide structured, attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in their own. In my home, dogs follow a consistent routine that includes scheduled feedings, frequent potty breaks, walks, enrichment, play, and calm rest time. I keep a limited number of dogs to ensure safety and individual attention, and I carefully manage introductions and interactions. In a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules. I focus on calm handling, safety, and clear communication, and I always leave the home clean and respected. As a professional dog trainer, I naturally reinforce good manners and basic obedience during care while prioritizing your dog’s comfort, safety, and well-being. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners feel confident and connected

“Amazing dog person! Caring, connected, conscientious and just a wonderful person. Rookie loves her!”

About: HUGE animal lover! Ever since I was a kid I have loved surrounding myself with animals/pets. I grew up having dogs and cats so they have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working two jobs: full-time at Wilson McGinley 5 days a week and part-time at a Hitchhiker Brewing. The full time requires me to be gone 2-8 hours (flexible with being an on premise sales rep) and the brewery is a 7 hour shift. I can always make time for pet care! When I am at someone’s home I can take the dog outside every 2-4 hours and can provide daily walks. If I am staying at someone’s place I usually tend to clean their home because I want to show a level of respect for anyone allowing me to stay at their home.

“Courtney was so caring and loving to our mini australian shepherd. Our dog is just a year old and this is the first time that we’ve had to go on an overnight trip without her. We were gone 4 days and our dog was very anxious. Courtney was a calming, loving and caring presence for her. She did an excellent job. We will definitely have her again and highly recommend her.”

“So far I’ve been pleased with Kristie. My pup took a liking to her immediately. Kristie is tough. Even if it’s cold or nasty weather, she will push through and make sure the dog gets his exercise. I hope she can become my regular dog walker for many more years”

About: I have worked in the pet industry for 10 years. I have done everything from cleaning kennels, to working as a vet assistant in a clinic. I also have experience with farm and exotic animals. I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life. I will enter the home as instructed by owners, and proceed in a professional manner. I will use my education as a vet assistant and future vet tech to ensure the animal(s) experience minimal upheaval of their daily routines.
