Dog Walking Garden District

“Daphne is a great communicator and came over for a visit before walking my pup- she took notes which I really appreciated. She seems very kind and has walked my dog twice so far. She’s a clear dog lover. Will hire again for sure!”

“Lindsey went above and beyond to take care of Wells while I was out of town. She is a total rockstar. I cannot recommend Lindsey enough. Thank you so so much!!!”

Scott M.

“Deana was fantastic. She showed up on time, had a bubbly and friendly personality, was very communicative and efficient and warm with the pups. One of my dogs is really smart and judgmental and she immediately rolled on her back for pets and scratches and wagged her tail as soon as Deana walked up (and was a total stranger to her). I highly recommend her and we will use her again!”

Sarah W.

“Thank you so much! Sent photo updates, was prompt, Phoebe loved her walks! I had thrown my back out and needed quick help and Victoria delivered!”

Lillian D.

“Robin is so wonderful with our pup! I know I can always count on her to be on time and communicative, and she sends the best update pictures!”

“Amanda was amazing and accommodating of my last minute booking. I could tell instantly she deeply cared about my older dog. A+ communication. Strongly recommend. Thanks again, Amanda!!!”

About: I have hands on experience with dog walking, house sitting, and cat sitting, and I’ve also had dogs of my own, giving me a strong understanding of daily care, routines, and pet behavior. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail oriented, making sure your pet stays on their routine and feels comfortable at home. I provide updates, follow instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety and well being at all times. I’m currently a nursing student working part time, but I have a flexible schedule and make time for pet care. With summer break coming up, I’ll have significantly more availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate more daytime care during the summer. I’m reliable with scheduling and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of proper introductions, routines, and supervision. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.

“I felt so confident leaving my pup in Andi’s care! She was so kind and understanding, patient with him, and went above and beyond offering to feed him in addition to walks. I loved receiving photos of him while I was away, and it was a huge relief knowing he was in such good hands. I appreciate her care and attention so much.”

“Laura was amazing with my anxious boy! She was patient, gentle, encouraging and flexible. She adjusts her approach entirely based on the personality and mood of the dog she works with, and consequently my dog is in love with her!”

About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.

“Lindsey is spectacular. Our first meet and greet went very well. She help me out in a bind when I had to work an extra shift at work. She took the time to get my stubborn Molly moo outside when my Molly moo wasn’t Being very cooperative. She also spent time giving Molly moo belly rubs and snuggles. Would highly recommend Lindsey as a dog walker.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over a decade, including raising a German shepherd and co-parenting an Italian greyhound. As a current medical student on my research year, I don’t have the flexibility to own a pet full-time—but my love for animals hasn’t changed. I’m the “cool uncle” to many of my friends’ pets and truly enjoy giving them love, attention, and care as if they were my own. I’d be honored to bring that same energy and compassion to your pet’s day. My schedule is flexible if planned ahead of time during week, and I decide my time between research lab annd studying. On the weekends, I’m always free and more flexible. I treat every pet’s space like a sacred one, clean, calm, and full of positive energy. Whether in your home or mine, safety is my top priority. I follow all feeding and walking routines closely, keep environments hazard-free, and always aim to earn your pet’s trust with patience and kindness. You can count on me to keep your pet happy, loved, and secure while you’re away.

About: My family rescued our first dog, April from the local dive bar when I was six years old. According to the vet, April was just two weeks. She had been separated from her mother at birth and hadn’t even opened her eyes yet. My parents worried she'd be too much trouble. I begged to keep her and promised I'd take care of her. April became my sister, my best friend, and my greatest teacher. I fed April from a bottle, taught her how to walk up the stairs, and took her to puppy training classes. April taught me the practice of presence, and the value of unconditional love. Our time spent together makes up some of my most cherished childhood memories. At the age of 13, pet-sitting became my first job. I loved it so much, I didn’t even understand how it could be considered a job. I took care of the animals, and the animals took care of me. In my decade+ of pet-sitting, I’ve worked with a range of breeds, ages, and temperaments. Walking 100lb. pitbulls with fear aggression. Administering medication to seniors. Feeding finicky rescued stray cats. I even fostered and re-homed an abandoned puppy that found me on the beaches of Costa Rica. I can confidently claim that I’ve never once had an animal “reject” me as their caretaker, and I think that says a lot. In the last 6 years, I’ve been living and traveling as a digital nomad. My lifestyle doesn’t currently allow for a pet of my own, so pet-sitting is a blessing that allows me the opportunity to care for pets as if they were my own. I work part-time as a meditation & yoga teacher, and part-time remote as an event organizer. This lifestyle allows me to be very flexible in taking on pet-sitting and house-sitting opportunities. I can build most of my work day around your pets schedule (and I'm more than happy to do so!) I offer long-term and short-term visits and overnight stays to take care of your pets in their own home. I've found that, for most pets, being in the security and routine of their own environment is the best way for them to cope with their owners temporary absence. I make sure to upkeep your pet's sense of "normalcy" to the best of my ability by feeding and walking them at regular intervals, being an active participant in play time (when desired), giving them snuggles (when desired), and just keeping them company! I make sure to upkeep YOUR sense of "normalcy" by respecting your space, keeping it as clean and organized as when I arrive (if not even more so), and following any & all house rules. In addition to overnights, I LOVE to take on daily walks and wellness checks when you're at work or just too busy to do it all on your own!

“Megan, is a lifesaver. I was in texas for work and needed a last minute dog walker. She and my fur baby jade connected very well. Megan is on time to walk jade, she is respectful, and I will be scheduling her when I need someone to look after jade. Big Thanks for your help Megan, again life save.”
