Dog Walking Gates Center

“Matthew walked our two large dogs while we were away for two weeks. His communication was great and the dogs were very happy! We will definitely have him walk them in the future when needed. Thank you, Matthew!”

“Excellent walker! Took my dog a bit to warm up to her but she was very patient while my dog warmed up. Met with me and my dog twice at a time that was convenient for me to make sure that my pup had a chance to get to know her. Highly recommended.”

About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years, and have always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired. I can come by during the day, including weekends and holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. Please note that I accept in-home stays that are a minimum of two nights. I can come to your home and stay, or visit to let your dog out, walk, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!

“Cassidy has been fantastic with my dog Zion. Quick, clear, and frequent communication and pictures. He seems to enjoy the visits and she goes above and beyond to give my needy boy all the belly scratches he desires.”

About: I have had pets since I was a kid. I had dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards, Guinea pigs. I currently have a husky now. I have a big heart for animals. I will help take care of any dog/cat. I am available after 3pm weekdays due to work and all day on weekends. If I can’t come for whatever reason, such my son being sick or an appointment, my boyfriend is able too. My dog is crate trained and he goes on walks daily. I will be able to take your dog out on walks and let them run in the backyard, if you have a fenced in yard. I will feed them and play with them and keep them stimulated.

“Kyle did a wonderful job with my large, high-energy pit mix. He has a very calm presence, which is important for high-energy dogs. And he was also very patient with her. I'd definitely use him again :)”

“Alexandra helped us out last minute and took great care of our dogs, and even showed our cat some love too 😊 We will definitely be contacting her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, and have been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old. All of my friends parents as a child as well as neighbors and relatives have all asked me time and time again to care for their pets in their home so they can relax while. Pets are my life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and love walking them, playing with them and entertaining them. I will make your pets feel like they are part of my family, not only feeding and walking them but loving them while you are away. I look forward to play dates with your dogs and you can look forward to any updates you need while you are away. Pet care is continuous for us, day and night! We play multiple times a day, my husky mix loves playing soccer! I have games for my dogs, and they love the puzzles. I am currently doing pet care, and a few other small jobs to see where it goes. I am going to have good availability for a while! I have a fully fenced yard and 2 happy dogs, one is a 1 year old husky mix girl, fixed who would love a playmate, and the other is a 6 year old girl, fixed shepherd sized mix who likes to watch the playing more then participate in it.

“Kenan was very helpful, followed instructions and communicated well. He was very good with Reese!”

About: Whether it’s potty-training the family dog or teaching a hunting dog to retrieve, I’ve been around them for pretty much my whole life. I currently travel for work so it’s just kitty and me for now, but I love helping whomever I can to take the best care possible of their furry family! I travel and work remotely, so I have time throughout the day to dedicate to providing the best experience I can for you and your pet(s)! I treat my clients’ homes like a place of business; courteous, professional, and I endeavor to leave it better than I found it. I’m very thorough when following instructions and will clarify any questions I have before making assumptions.

About: Hi, my name is Lindsay and I’m an animal lover through and through. I grew up in a cat‑loving family with the most adorable tabby and Persian cats. One of our Persians, Sweetie, was especially close to me. She passed away a few years ago, and losing her truly broke my heart—she was with me for so long and gave me so many wonderful memories. I also spend a lot of time with my family’s dogs—a brown Labrador, a German Shorthaired Pointer, and a pair of Boston Terriers—and I always make sure to play with them whenever we’re together. Back in high school, my mom, sister, and I volunteered at our local humane society. We cleaned kennels and litter boxes, played with the animals, and gave them the affection and company they needed. I’ve also cared for many of my family’s and friends’ cats and dogs over the years, and there has never been a dull moment. Pets bring so much joy. A little about me: I love hiking, doodling, drinking coffee, playing mobile games, reading, and traveling. I enjoy spending time with my family, good friends, and—of course—fur babies. I’m flexible, easygoing, and always happy to hang out with pets who need love and attention. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and give them all the care and affection they deserve. I work part‑time from home, which gives me lots of flexibility to care for your fur babies. I offer weekend boarding and weekday availability after my work hours. My yard is fully fenced and secure, giving your fur baby a safe place to play. My neighborhood has lots of sidewalks, so your pet will enjoy calm walks right outside my home.

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.

“Meredith was great! She had excellent communication with me, she was reliable/timely and my dog loved her! I will definitely use her again when the need arises.”

About: About Me: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands‑on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I grew up with a dog for eight years, and as an adult I’ve continued to care for dogs through family, friends, and Rover. My Experience: - Raised and trained my own German Shepherd from puppyhood with both personal training and help from a professional - Cared for my sister’s two dogs - Boarded multiple dogs in my home through Rover - House‑sat for families and watched their dogs - Provided post‑surgery care, including after her spay - Comfortable giving pills or medications - Confident walking large or strong dogs What I Offer: I love getting outside, playing, going for walks, and making sure each dog feels happy, safe, and cared for. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or just some extra affection, I’m here to help. I am currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of time to care for your dog! I go to the gym in the mornings and early evenings. My days are pretty wide open and flexible. I would love to be able to take your dog outside and go for walks. I want them to feel safe and comfortable around me. If I am sitting at your home, then I want to make sure they are in their normal routine and doing the things they enjoy and need on a daily basis.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I helped raise several puppies including one who I fostered before she became a seeing eye dog. I have also assisted in training my partner's service dog. I focus primarily on house sitting for folks with cats. I am open to other jobs sometimes. Regardless of the species or amount of time, your furry friend will be happy and healthy and my capable hands. I take careful notes about you animal's routine and needs before they are in my care. Skills for behavioral and emotional regulation are built into the way i interact with dogs. Cats and i just vibe. Even skittish cats tend to warm up to me in few days and we always have a nice time together.

“Madeline was fantastic! Kind and timely.”

“Joey was fantastic with my dog! He made sure that she was well-fed, walked, and had plenty of fun every time he visited her. He constantly kept me up to date with report cards and pictures. I would happily ask Joey to watch my dog again the next time I am out of town!”

About: I have always had a passion for animals ever since I can remember. I have some experience with big dogs and high energy dogs as well. I have 3 cats of my own who are all very used to being around dogs. I work full time as a CNA during the day and am also a mom! Who doesn’t want a side hustle that includes snuggling up to dogs and taking walks! I work full time as a CNA working first shift so that leaves me the rest of the day to be home! I have a 2 year old son! I live in a neighborhood perfect for long (or short) walks! We love to be outside as much as possible (weather permitting!) I own my house and although I do not have a fenced yard I do have plenty of space to run around and walk with your furry family member. I live in perfect neighborhood for taking walks and although we are still remodeling our interior here and there we have managed to make it so cozy and as clean as we can with a toddler!
