Dog Walking Gardner

“Sarah is the best! I can’t say enough great things about her. She has been walking Brew for almost a year now and we adore her. Reliable, friendly, honest and she works with my chaotic work schedule. Brew looks forward to his walks with her too!”

About: I have had a dog all my life. Professionally in shelter industry for 12 years with all training courses. I am a certified dog trainer in Goodpup, certified in small animal vet assistant. I specialize in behavior modification, puppy training w and socialization and play activity. I am available 7 days a week. Day care is available with doggy play dates. My pet has been around cats and loves other dogs. I live in an apartment with dog park and trails. My dog loves all dogs and playing with other dogs. I also have a large kennel and expert in house training.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and seriously don't know a life without them. I have two stubborn, little dachshunds who think they're in charge most of the time. They also have two human sisters who they are very overprotective of (they’re 8 years old and 1 year old). My oldest dachshund had surgery for IVDD a few years ago so I am familiar with administering oral medication and providing needed crate rest. I have experience in taking care of puppies all the way up to the more cranky and older dogs. My husband and I work opposite schedules so there will always be someone home with your pup. I'm responsible, reliable, and I promise to treat your fur babies as if they were my own! For boarding, the amount of time your dog is left alone will be very minimal since my husband and I work opposite schedules. I have my dogs to take care of too so I’m used to caring for pets. For drop in visits, I can only do so before 7:30am and after 5pm, unless it’s a weekend. My availability can vary on weekends so just reach out and I’ll see if I can help! I have a fenced in yard for your pets to play in and go potty. I’m also able to crate them if necessary. I will feed your pets separately from mine so there are no altercations.

About: I've had indoor dogs my entire life. I currently have a 13 year old Senior Beagle and his sister, 10 year old Beagle mix. I will treat your animals with the same care as I do mine. I know what's it's like to be busy and not be able to get home during the day to care for your dog. I will walk, or let your dog out to potty. I will give medication if needed along with check for food/water. I can also text, send pictures during my visit. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexibility daytime schedule to walk, let out to potty and play/interact with your dog or cat. I will show your pet love and care for your piece of mind. I have a fenced yard for my two dogs, but I also see the great benefit in walking them daily. I will gladly come to your home, let your dog(s) out and walk them if you like. I will also take great care to make sure your dog or cat stay safe and keep all doors and gates closed.

About: I grew up with dogs, and I’ve always said that I would help any animal in need. At age 15 I took on the sole responsibility of caring for two guinea pigs. At age 16 I began volunteering at an animal rescue in Lewisville, Texas and at age 19 I started working at a veterinary clinic in Hays, KS. Recently I have been using my passion for helping others in elderly care, but I have moved back to the Kansas City area and I’d like to get back to working with animals beyond just the informal care I do for my cousin’s two pitbulls and my family’s two labradors. I am working on securing full time employment and so I will be caring for pets during the hours that I am not at work. I believe every animal should be treated with kindness. I enjoy playing with pets and engaging them. I am always on time and I insure that dogs get sufficient exercise.

“Thank you”

About: Grew up with dogs and now have two Golden babies at home. Love to play and interact with them so they feel secure and loved. Used to high energy pups and willing to take the extra time to make sure they get their energy out. I am a Real Estate Agent. So, my schedule is flexible. I am usually available after 7am and up until 10pm. I am used to entering homes, since my job requires me to. I am reliable and honest. I have watched my friend's dogs for many years. I am comfortable with walking your dogs and playing with them in the yard or inside. I enjoy the time with them as I am a huge lover of all dogs.

“Phoebe is amazing! She was so kind to do a last minute visit at night in the freezing cold for an unexpected request when we couldn’t get back from a trip! So grateful!”

About: I am a childless human that takes all my maternal instincts out on animals. My animals are treated like my kids and would bring the same kind of energy to your babies. There hasn’t been a time in my life that I haven’t owned some kind of pets. I’m reliable and would love to be a part of your families routine. I work from home and my work day is fairly flexible, specially to families that are in Spring Hill. I usually can make most times work. The only thing about my schedule is it is not the same everyday, so drop in times might vary about an hour before or after due to meetings in my day. I am a very trustworthy, punctual, and caring human. I will go above and beyond for your furry children. My presence in your home would be to your requests and routines. I’ve yet to meet an animal that did not feel safe with me.

About: Hello! **Repeat Clients get specialized Discount** I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude, I make any animal I care for #1. I dont work full time, so time for pet care is very important to me. Whatever routine the family has I stick to for consistency. I do have other activities I do but they are always scheduled around my work as a pet care provider. 🙂 In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.

About: Hi there!! :) I am currently wanting to book as many housesits as I can, within the next year. Anything coming up for you or in the future you want to go ahead and get booked? I am comfortable with ‼️ALL BREEDS ‼️ of dogs and cats and have experience with a vast majority. I especially love big doggies!! (I also love all animals in general so completely open to caring for other species as well)! Please reach out to me, as I will keep not only your animals safe, happy and loved but also keep your home safe and taken care of accordingly. Whether it’s just a night you need me to stay over, 2+weeks of care or anything in between— I would love to help you and your animal/s :) I have extensive experience working with animals, starting from my time in school where I gained foundational knowledge about animal care. I then worked at a doggy daycare and training facility, where I handled a variety of responsibilities including grooming, giving dogs baths, physical and mental stimulation activities with the dogs, feeding, boarding and assisting with training. I’m well-educated on dog behavior and have worked with all types of dogs, managing different behaviors and health needs. This includes administering medication like insulin and responding to emergencies such as seizures. In addition to my hands-on experience, I served as a supervisor at the daycare, which helped me develop leadership skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have a dog and a cat of my own, who are very important to me and have deepened my understanding and passion for animal care. My long-term goal is to become a vet tech and keep working in the rescue and rehabilitation scene. I’m currently working at an animal sanctuary in this field to gain experience and I do Rover to earn some extra income while being in school for this career path. I’m committed to continuing my education and growing my skills to make a positive impact on animals’ and humans lives. ❤️🐾🙏 I currently work at an animal sanctuary and rescue part time, in addition to doing Rover!! I’m available for housesitting especially during this time in my life, as well as potty let outs at anytime of the day and walks (the cold doesn’t bother me)! I’d really say, it depends on the animal, client and circumstances. But I give every animal I watch the care, attention and love I would give my own animals in addition to any other special requests!

“Alyssa was the first person I contacted when I came to Kansas City. She was immediately available and arranged to meet my dog Two Bit, who loved her. She took great care of him and kept me notified of what was happening. I have already arranged a second session and will continue to use her services.”

“Kathleen is very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. She keeps me informed when she is on her way and when she arrives. Kathleen provides updates on the walk, if needed. It is a pleasure and a relief to have Kathleen walking Bandit.”

“Elena was wonderful - This was the first time we used Rover after a negative experience with a private dog-walking service, so we were a little nervous to try someone new - but Elena was exactly what we needed: punctual, responsive, attentive and caring toward our dog, noting and following all instructions on food, water, walking habits, etc. She gave us every assurance and confidence - Would highly recommend her and would definitely be using her again if we travel out of town again!”

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I have 3 dogs, a cat, and a 75 gallon fish tank in my household and I love them all dearly. I take my dog Willow to the dog park regularly and I hope to be able to help keep your pet active as well! I am an honest a genuine person who you can trust in your home and with the safety and happiness of your pets. I used to work as a veterinary assistant and am more than capable of administering medication, including insulin and checking glucose levels. I hope I can bring you and your pets happiness with my services! I’m fine with any ages as well :) Puppies and senior dogs are always welcome. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions. I am currently in school and doing Rover full time, so I tend to leave periodically throughout the day for drop ins and I also play volleyball. But besides that I am able to stay in your home most of the time :) I live in a shared house, so if you would like me to take care of your animals in my own home, I would need to clear it with my roommate first! I have plenty of space that isn’t shared so as long as your pet is small/medium and fully potty trained, that most likely won’t be an issue. I have a fenced in yard. I am also receptive to those who are very particular about their pets as well. Whether they are handicapped and require extra attention, need medication at certain times, or if you would like me to take them on a certain amount of walks per day etc. I should also mention that I am a people please at heart, so you are guaranteed great service! 😊

About: Animals have been a major part of my life since I was a child. I grew up on a family farm with all sorts of animals. We also had plenty of indoor pets such as dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and the occasional reptile. I have had years of experience house and pet sitting. In undergrad, I work with a large and small veterinarian for several months and took several animal husbandry classes. I've also worked at a doggy daycare center in the past with roughly 70 dogs per day. I am a student currently pursuing a doctorate degree in chiropractic. I have classes monday-friday, but there are breaks in my schedule throughout the day. I am comfortable and adaptable with any situation or furry friend that needs to be looked after. I live in an apartment so watching a pet in their owners home is preferable.

About: I have over ten years of experience with taking care of animals. My experience ranges through ages, sizes, and species. I’m experienced in cats and dogs with varied disability levels. I currently work part time and have complete weekend availability to take care of your furry friends! I love routine, so they will definitely have that with me. I take care of my animals by listening to their boundaries and adjusting to their needs. Every animal has its own personality and needs, I’m willing to learn to adjust to each animal.

About: Empathy and enthusiasm. Well-versed in law enforcement, military, and civilian canine care. All breeds, all sizes. I'm here for you and your beloved family members. I am available morning, afternoon, evening, or weekends to assist our furry friends. From basic exercise to comfort sessions, I'm here to assist your dog's needs. On leash outside or playful in residence. My skills and experience are unparalleled. Your needs are my utmost priorities. I provide concierge level service to all canine breeds.
