Dog Walking Gem

About: I've had dogs since I was born and throughout my entire life. I've had puppies, senior dogs, and all big dogs! I've been sitting for neighbors and friends for years, too. I love to play inside or outside. My specialty is cuddling the love bugs. I'm currently working a very flexible part-time job as a babysitter, typically 9 am - 12 pm Mon, Tues, and Thurs. I have a reliable vehicle, so driving to a house is no problem. I keep a close eye on all the pets (mostly because I'm trying to get them to hang out with me). I set reminders and have notes to help myself keep on top of things! I am very attentive to my surroundings when I am sitting so I can keep the love bugs safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve had my own dog for 5 years, and it’s taught me a lot of responsibility. I used to dog walk for my neighbors before I moved. Also, I have a lot of patience when it comes to dogs. I’ll feed, walk, play, and even give your dog a bath if needed. I wake up early everyday to let my dog go outside. And I try to take my dog for walks everyday before dinner. I’m not a busy person so I’m always home ready to take care of the dogs Pets in my house are allowed on furniture and beds. I make sure to vacuum frequently because of the fur. I live in a 3 story house, with plenty of room for my dog and the dog I’m sitting. I live in a suburban development, with a safe route to walk dogs.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 25 years. As well, I always had a dog and/or cat while growing up as a kid. I love animals and looking to make some extra cash on the side. I am working part-time so looking to do something extra on my days off. I typically have a flexible schedule to help out when you need it. I will care for your fur babies and give them love and attention as if they were my own. I will make sure they are comfortable while you are away.

About: I have taken care of friends' dogs and cats on and off throughout the years with no problems and I really enjoy caring for for fur babies! I also care for chickens from time to time! I'm pretty flexible with my schedule! I can stop by your house a couple of times a day or stay over night if needed. Right now I cannot keep pets at my house. I will follow the instructions you give me and lovingly care for your pet as if it were my own. I can transport your dog to park if needed.

“Thank you so much Kristina! We can’t wait to have you back!!”

About: I’ve had 2 pups for over a decade. Bonzo is my first born, a 12yr old Mini Aussie. He’s a trip and great with my kids. Recently lost my 15yr old Sheba Inu/German Shepherd mix. Akai was the love of my life. Not so great with the kids when they became mobile. We had a couple warning bites when the kids were toddlers. Everyone said to get rid of him, but I wouldn’t even consider it. Akai was telling the kids “he doesn’t like that” and the kids needed to learn to respect that. I understand and respect pups, sometimes better than people. I can try to teach the basics to a pup, but definitely not a dog trainer. I’ve considered getting another pup, but Akai was one of a kind. Instead I thought I could share my extra puppy love with other pups. I’m a single mom with two school age kids. So I am available during school hours, 8am-1pm. During the summer my schedule will vary, but mostly available every day of the week. My pup is one of the kids. I give him just as much love and attention as my kids. We have a fenced in backyard and quiet street for walks, if I decide to offer daycare or boarding.

“It is a joy to work with Amanda. I would recommend Amand to my friends.”

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart! Being a pet owner myself, with a few dogs of my own, I’ve learned that every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines. I’m passionate about providing dependable, loving care that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable. Whether your furry friend needs an energetic walk, some fun playtime, extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m here to help! I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to the little details that make each pet unique. I believe pets are family, and they deserve to be treated that way! My goal is to build lasting relationships with pets and their owners while making every visit a positive experience. 🐶🐱💗 I’m currently a high school student completing my classes online from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your furry friends! 🐾💕 Since I’m home throughout the day, I can easily make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I also have a dog named Lilly and a bunny named Sage, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday routine! I love spending time with animals and would be happy to make your pets part of my day! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! 💗 As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in good hands. I have a dog named sage and a bunny named lily, so I’m familiar with the responsibility, patience, and attention animals need. I make sure pets have fresh water, proper meals, a clean environment, and plenty of love! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions and routines. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to send pictures and updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐶🐱🐾

About: I have a master's and bachelor's in animal science and plenty of experience with an array of different animal needs, demeanors, and personalities. Taking care of animals is truly what I love to do. Pet care is built into my routine through daily feeding, walks, playtime, and grooming, plus weekly cleaning and health checks. It provides structure to my day and keeps me active, mindful, and consistent. I care for pets by providing regular feeding, exercise, supervision, and enrichment. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I use a designated area in my apartment where dogs can safely roam, play, and relax, along with scheduled walks and attentive care.

About: I have experience with several breeds of dogs and different types of animals. My Macee is a 4 year old Frenchton! I have previous experience with cats and goats. My previous Boston Terrier, Angel (and she was an Angel❤️) unfortunately passed away from cancer in 2025 so I also have some senior/disabled pet care experience. I currently work full-time with children so some dates are limited but I am happy to help when/where I can! My availability is typically every other weekend but I may be able to make an exception where needed. Don't hesitate to ask! I currently do not have a fenced in yard so I am only offering drop in/pet sitting in the pets home at this time.

About: I am truly fascinated about animals of all kinds, especially the “weird” ones! Growing up in North Carolina, I naturally had a passion for the outdoors, and the creatures who inhabit it. I quickly learned to have respect for these animals and have always wanted to learn more. I have years of personal experience caring for and loving dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, geckos, chickens, and freshwater fish, but I am comfortable with many other species as I also have experience as an exotic veterinary assistant. I will always listen to every comment or concern, and make sure I am 100% available for all of your animal’s needs! I will always personally conduct a “history” with you, about your pet(s) before any booking! I feel like it is important to note certain information so I can look for any changes during our time together. I always log eating, drinking, defecation, and behaviors so I can ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible! Lastly, I understand that I am being entrusted with your animal’s care, and I take that very seriously. If there is ever a slight cause for concern, you will be contacted immediately! Typical Routines: maintaining food and water schedule as requested (plus cleaning food/water dishes daily), following scheduled potty breaks as directed, any enrichment/playtime/exercise activities, refreshing bedding, brushing/grooming, etc. Please refer to my calendar for more details about scheduling.I look forward to working with you and your pet(s)! I always approach animals with care and ease. I am never forceful or use a loud voice, and try to be as attentive to their needs as possible!
