Dog Walking In Grantosa

About: I’m the designated dog walker for family and friends because I love going on walks, and dogs love coming with me! I grew up with a dog but only have two cats of my own— so I miss having that four-legged friend to go with me! I’d love to take your dog out for a walk/run, or just let them stretch their legs. Cat owners, I’m happy to give your kitties as much or as little space as they need while making sure they feel the love :) I don’t work Fridays or Saturdays, so I am free to help anytime then! Definitely looking to fill my Fridays up with some time outside, and I’d love to take your dog with me - or check in on your cat! I usually walk my parent’s and brother’s dogs (about 80 lbs each) so I know how to handle bigger dogs on leashes who tend to stray from the sidewalk. I can clean up after them, feed them, and give them all the pets! For my cats at home, I love to play with strings or catnip - and can cater to their personality as need be.

About: I'm a dog walker and trainer currently working towards certification. I take in any age and breed but specialize in puppies and high energy dogs. I primarily work from home but leave for a few hours to work with clients. I'm typically never gone for more than 2-3 hours so I'll have plenty of time to care for and play with the pups! All dogs also typically get 1-3 hours of 1:1 time daily without any other pets with us to ensure that they're getting all the care they need. I have one large senior dog who loves to play with puppies so they'll have plenty of company! The dogs are always separated when unsupervised and have separate walks as a safety measure. We also have baby gates and play pens so dogs can be kept separated if need be. There are young children in the house.

“Michelle was a lifesaver for a last minute booking. Great correspondence, timely arrival and excellent skills with my dog. Will definitely book again. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and grew up with dogs, which taught me how much comfort and companionship pets bring into our lives. I’m also a devoted cat parent to my rescue cat, Monkey, who is truly like family to me. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, knowing I treat every animal with patience and love. I have experience with birds, and reptiles as well, including caring for my sister’s indoor pigeons and leopard gecko. I always take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs so they feel safe and cared for. I’m currently available to work late mornings and afternoons, which allows me to give pets my full attention and care. I have plenty of time for playtime, feeding, enrichment, and check-ins. I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to accommodate each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure pets are always clean, well-fed, hydrated, supervised, and mentally engaged through appropriate enrichment. Whether that’s playtime, walks, gentle interaction, or calm companionship, I tailor enrichment to each pet’s needs and energy level. I’m experienced with providing oral medication when needed and maintaining clean living spaces, including litter boxes, crates, cages, and enclosures. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel confident your pet is in loving hands!

“Taylor was very responsive and great to work with. She answered messages quickly and clearly. My dogs are not the easiest to walk and she handled them with care.”

About: I’ve taking care of pets since I was 13. I currently have a blind senior german shepherd, and guide him when needed, giving him lots of treats and love. I also have a 1 year puppy and give her frequent time out. I’m planning on working weekends whenever needed to play with doggies and give them the care they need! I can feed them, give medicine, and care for blind and senior dogs. I put my dogs before anything and make sure they have everything they need. Treats, water, food, play time, medicine, supplements, nap time and love.

“Angela has been amazing and my fur baby loves it. I would recommend booking her.”

“Chelsea was great with my two pups! The snow and ice and the corresponding salt on the sidewalks make things a bit more challenging for my senior dog, who has arthritis and poor vision. But Chelsea made sure they did their business in a caring way...she even carried my older dog for a portion of the way because one of her paws was hurting, likely from the salt/ice-melt. I highly recommend Chelsea!!”

About: I started off taking care of small animals, but then became trained as a kennel attendant and enrichment specialist in my growing career in animal care. I wanted to offer more to my local community with the current skills I have, along with learn and grow with every pet and parent! I’m aware of how dogs communicate with each other with body language and have been trained to break apart a fight, even before a fight could start.

About: During high school and throughout college, I worked as a self-employed child caregiver, offering extra services for in-home visits that included cleaning, cooking, pet care, and dog walking ! Since then, I have personally helped friends and family with pet sitting, general care, and walking. I have experience working with a wide variety of pets, including dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, rodents and small mammals, birds, smaller reptiles, fish (primarily betta and goldfish), and toads/frogs. I have a strong knowledge of dog and cat body language/general care—well enough to aid in basic training of commands such as sit, stay, lie down, heel, and drop it—and have experience in senior care, including medication administration, with an attention to detail focused on the comfort and safety of your pet. I currently work at the Humane Society Sun, Mon, Thurs, Fri with dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, and some wildlife (: I am available most days I do not work with proper notice. I do offer same-day dog walking; however, immediate service is not always possible, so please reach out as early as possible to ensure availability ! For in-home visits, I find it important to do an initial sweep upon arrival of all pet-accessible areas in the home, taking note of and minimizing potential hazards/removing safety risks in order to keep you informed and your pet out of harm’s way ! While with your pet, I will always keep them in sight (if not within reach) to catch any potential for damage to property or harm to your pet, reducing incidents and encouraging the trust of both you and your pet.

“Charlotte has been wonderful with our dog Douglas. Highly recommend to anyone needing a reliable dog-walker!”

“Matilda can be very reactive to new people and no one has ever walked her before except me. Dave was great!! He even sent pictures of her while they were out walking. 100% recommend and will book with Dave again!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 2 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.

“Krystal has done a fantastic job taking our high-energy dog on walks. She’s prompt and shares details about how things went afterwards. She’s also been great about following any specific instructions or requests. I feel very confident leaving our dog in her care and highly recommend her.”

Liz R.

“I was very worried about finding someone dependable to care for our dog while we're at work. Emma has been communicative and reliable, and a huge help to us. We would recommend her for anyone looking!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My family currently has2 dogs and one cat now. I know how it feels to leave pets alone and need someone to take care of them so I thought this would be a good way to help others. I am a teacher so I have a lot of flexibility over the summer. I can be somewhat flexible during the school year depending on my schedule. I am home during the summer since I am a teacher. We have some short family vacations we take, but for the most part I am available. During the school year I am free on the weekends. Our yard is fenced, but my dogs and cat make our house full. I am happy to visit dogs or cats, walk and play with them, and do any other care they need.

About: I have been the go-to pet sitter for my large family & friends for years and just decided to see if anyone else would need the service. I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. I like hanging out with the pets like little buddies, getting some days of cuddles and then sending them home 😅. It’s the perfect way to get some fur baby time until I’m ready for my next dog or cat in the future. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting cuz it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 9 and currently have my own dog. I pet sit for coworkers and friends when they go out of town. I've raised puppies as well as cared for senior dogs. I work from home 3 days a week. I am able to check in on or walk dogs on my lunch break. On weekends I am available, I can check in or walk any time of the day. I have experience with dog and cat behavior, including reactive dogs. When I check in on your pet I will ensure they have enough food and water, play with them, and if requested I will take dogs for a 30 minute or longer walk.

About: First, your dog or dogs will have a companion, my friendly female chihuahua who gets along well with all dogs. Second, I do not take in multiple customers at the same time, ensuring your dog gets the most attention and care that I can provide. I understand how stressful boarding can be for our furry friends. I live alone in a clean and tidy home, less than 10 minutes away from my 9-5 job. My chihuahua Lina gets 3 walks per day along with a biweekly bath, nail trimming, teeth brushing & ear cleaning solution. You can rest assured your dog won't be let loose in the neighborhood or mistreated in any way. Please reach out with any questions. Lina and I are looking forward to meeting your pup! Since I work close to home, I always go home during lunch to feed & walk my puppy. You can be assured that your best friend won't go more than 4 hours without my care. In the meantime, my chihuahua will keep he or she good company. While I work during the week, my chihuahua gets to stay in my kitchen with her bed, food & water. My neighborhood is a friendly place for long walks that will be more enjoyable with my chihuahua! She loves her walks more than life itself : )
