Dog Walking Galena

“We have previously used Penny for our dogs, one is our old guy, blind and needs special assistance. She is so kind and caring with him, sends pics as well. She goes above and beyond! Will for sure be using her again.”

About: For me, pet sitting on Rover is so much more than a job—it is a true passion rooted in 30 years of dedicated animal care experience. Over the decades, I have had the absolute joy of looking after all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats and small animals. I know firsthand that every single pet is a cherished family member with their own unique personality and routine. Because of this lifelong background, I am incredibly adaptable; I know exactly how to keep up with a high-energy puppy, gently comfort a shy senior cat, or carefully manage specialized feeding schedules for your pets. I treat every animal in my care exactly how I would want my own pets to be treated: with endless patience, safety, and deep affection. Leaving a pet can be stressful for owners, so I always leverage my decades of experience to prioritize clear communication, reliability, and daily updates that give families complete peace of mind. I am fully confident in my ability to connect with and care for any type of pet, and I am dedicated to making sure both you and your companion feel completely safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work as a handy-man so my hours are flexible enough to need your pets every needs from stopping by and playing multiple times a day to sitting with them all day and night. I also have an animal friend home with pleanty of play area and 1 acre of fenced in yard for them to play. My 3 dogs and 3 cats welcome any animal into the household with open paws. My gentle giant st. Bernard and German shepherd are rough enough to play tug of war with the biggest of dogs but gentle enough to cuddle and protect a 5lb teacup Yorkie.

“jen was awesome! booked her super last minute and it was my first time using anything like this so i was a little nervous, but she made me feel a lot better!”

About: Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. Have owned as many as 5 at one time, as well as fostering dogs, cats and kittens, including a special needs beagle with degenerative myelopathy (he had a cool wheelchair :) . I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command. If I sit for your dog in my home, my cat, Frankie, will just roll her eyes and move on :) I am happy to work with the schedule you prefer for your furry kids, even if it's not the same as mine. Please contact me with questions, I am happy to chat first so we are both comfortable. While I no longer work from home, I still have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home, as I have done for my own dogs 😊 I have a fenced yard and a special “dog room” with toys a few different sized crates for when they need some space from my cat 😊.

About: 🐾 A Little About Our Home! ❤️ I'm a stay-at-home mom with three active kids (15, 11, and 9), and animals have been a part of our lives for as long as we can remember! Caring for animals is something our entire family genuinely enjoys. When your animal is in our care, they'll receive all the love, attention, and affection they deserve. We do our best to accommodate their normal routines, whether that means lounging around and relaxing, getting out for multiple walks, or enjoying some playtime. We also have a fully fenced-in backyard for those days when they want to run around, play fetch, and burn off some energy! Our family has three dogs, Benny, Lou, and Leo, along with two cats, Nala and Millie. They're all part of our family, and we're used to having a house full of animals! A little heads-up: Our kids are active parts of our household, so we do ask that your animal be comfortable around children. They may get a little extra love and attention (okay, probably A LOT 🤣). If your animal isn't comfortable around children, no worries! We can absolutely make arrangements for the kids to be elsewhere while your animal is in our care. We're also happy to help with walks, drop-ins, feeding, and other care needs! At the end of the day, we're just a house full of love, and we love welcoming new furry (or not-so-furry) friends into it! 🐾❤️ I am home everyday! This means tons of walks, play time, nap times, pee breaks. Your animal unless other wise told, will have free roam to our house. We have safety gates that will be put up, if you feel more comfortable them staying in one room. I have a backyard, and if the animal is needing to be crated I can also accommodate that. My animals however, are allowed anywhere in the house that I or my family is allowed. Bedrooms, beds, couches, outside!

About: I am a dog trainer at Feeders Supply Jeffersonville location. Everything I make from this site will go towards my career. I taught my own personal dog how to walk properly, sit, lay, stay, spin, to say his prayers, as well as many more when I had him! I enjoy any and every animal and breed I also have a few snakes. I request to meet the dog with the owner prior to any commitment to ensure they are comfortable with me. I took off house sitting temporarily due to past houses being unlivable. Anything else you would like to know, I am an open book, please feel free to ask! I currently work full time from home as well as dog training once a week as of now. My husband also works from home so someone is available to monitor at all times! My work schedule will be changing soon, however should have the time to do drop by visits if near by. I have two friendly and playful dogs that could be entertaining, but also know how to be patient when necessary. I also have a baby gate to separate pups, if need be. I also have two cats that joined our family that see dogs as other cats. They will end up playing with your dog by the end of their stay, guaranteed!

About: I've never had a time without pets in my life. Ever since I was born I had cats, dogs, mice, fish, even chinchillas! A good thing about me is that I always like to research things before I take something on. If there were any health issues or anything I would try my hardest to learn everything I could about it. Hey! I'm currently working as a waitress at nights but my mornings and early afternoons are free! I love being active and bringing a furry friend along just makes that even better. As a dog walker, I put their safety first, just as I do with my own babies. I don't like walking into new areas without making sure they're safe first. You just never know how the surroundings could be.

For cats, I provide calm, respectful care that allows them to feel comfortable at their own pace. I believe pet sitting is more than simply providing food and a place to sleep.

About: Hello! My name is Adrianna and I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I have 3 dogs of my own: a German shepherd, a husky mix and a golden doodle. I love animals of all types and have experience with special needs dogs, administering medication, and walking reactive dogs. My parents have 4 dogs as well that I routinely care for. I understand how comforting it is to know your pets are in good hands and I would love to be able to be that person for you! I typically work evenings, therefore daytime walks and visits are ideal for me and ensure I have lots of time to spend with your babies. I am happy to provide leashes and poop bags in case they are ever forgotten and i will ensure owners receive updates about their pets regularly.

About: I have previous experience working at a dog boarding facility for 1 year. I have experience watching dogs for family and friends. I have 3 dogs of my own who are my babies. I’m currently working part time and I am in school online so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. My schedule varies so please let me know what your requests are and I can let you know if they would work with my schedule. I am available on weekdays, weekends, drop ins and for long term stays. I am free to stay overnight or come for day visits. I love to be outdoors with pups or spend time indoors snuggling and watching Netflix!

About: I am a state certified veterinary technician and also someone who has had a love for all animals since I was a kid. I've been helping all animals personally (and then professionally) for years...actually decades! I treat all fur-babies as I would my own. The unconditional love we receive from our pets is something I treasure and never take for granted. Whether young pups and kittens, or senior dogs and cats, I give them all the attention and love they deserve and crave (especially while their parents/owners are away). My schedule is currently wide open, as I have just moved back to Prospect, KY recently and am looking for the right fit in a veterinary clinic or animal hospital. My schedule is quite flexible, so I can work around yours. With my state certified veterinary technician license I am able to do things that others are not. I can also tell you what may be a start of an ear infection or allergies or nothing at all! I enjoy going to dog parks, taking walks, playing fetch (or keep away haha) but also enjoy the quiet calm time while rubbing bellies and brushing hair. Also dog massages for the senior dogs helps tons with their aches and pains and I more than willing to assist. It actually puts them in a calming trance. Cats and I are a sort of soul mate (maybe it’s the name haha) but I have dealt with watching 5 cats at an owners house and 3 of the 5 had special medical needs that I was more than happy to help! They started booking me a year out ahead of time if they could!

About: I have always had my own pets and they are family. I would treat your pets like they are my own and take them for walks, play with them and give them lots of love and care.

I will provide dog sitting in your home and I am experienced with all animals. I treat my animals as my own children they are very loved and spoiled. I look forward to hearing from you about your pets. I have 2 miniature schnauzers who are very active . They are 3 and 1 year old I walk them every day and take them to the dog park. I make sure they get plenty of exercise . I treat them like my children and love them very much. I have a fenced in yard. We play outside With the ball. I also take my dogs for a walk everyday. I take them to the dog park so they get plenty of exercise. My dogs get along with other dogs and are super friendly around people. I would care for your pets as if they were my own and treat them like family

About: I’ve cared for active, large dogs since childhood and understand their need for attention, exercise, and careful monitoring — especially in hot weather. I’ve pet-sat for neighbors and family, supporting pups and cats of every size. I’m currently preparing my graduate school applications and updating my portfolio, which gives me plenty of flexible time throughout the week. Pet care fits easily into my routine — whether daily walks, active play, or dedicated sitting time. I have reliably house-sat and pet-sat before, always keeping pets in their familiar environment where they feel safest. In a client’s home, I’m careful to maintain their routines, respect their space, and avoid disturbing anything in the home. My focus is on creating a calm, comfortable experience for pets of any size.
