“The dogs love Nick. Their walk was great and the pictures in the report card show how much fun they had. Thanks for being reliable and helping out!”
About: For the past two years, I’ve lived with a dog and have gained a deep appreciation for the care, love, and responsibility that comes with it. Daily walks have always been a priority, along with plenty of affection and attention. I’ve also helped care for pets in other homes, primarily for family friends and friends, whether stopping by to feed and walk their dogs or giving their cats the care and affection they need. Before living with a dog, I also lived with a cat, whom I cared for as my own, so I’m comfortable with both types of pets and making sure they are continually cared for in a safe and trusting environment. I work a full time job but the shifts don’t start until 3:30 so I have open availability Monday- Friday anytime before that! This fits perfectly to my schedule. I also have availability Sundays all day! I’m an experienced city walker who knows my way around and loves getting in plenty of steps throughout the day. Adding a dog friend companion to my walks would make it even better! I understand how important regular exercise is for a dog’s well being and would love to provide them with the care they need while ensuring a safe and enjoyable walk! I have a deep passion for animals, and spending time with them always makes my day better. While I’ve primarily cared for the pets of friends and family, I’m excited to expand my experience and help others by providing the same love and care I would as if they were my own. I may not have a long history of walking clients pets yet, but I bring reliability, attentiveness, and a true love for animals to every interaction. I’m also highly communicative and will always provide updates on how your pet is doing whether we’re out on a walk or just spending time together at their home. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and give them the attention they deserve!

I live an active lifestyle and adore animals, so walking your pet or stopping by to say hello are a no brainer for me!

I make sure to stick to your pet’s routine, including feeding, playtime, walks, and any specific care instructions you provide.

I appreciate the gravity of this and hold security and privacy in the highest regards. Can also provide references.

About: Taken care of our family dog for 9 years while aiding in training, feeding schedule, trick implementation, and more. I love dogs with a passion and look forward to meeting yours!

About: What sets me apart is my experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and abilities. I’ve cared for high-energy puppies, senior dogs, and cats with disabilities like ataxia. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, providing mobility support, and reading animal body language to ensure every pet feels safe and loved. I’m also skilled in basic training, crate routines, leash handling, and introducing pets to new environments. My calm, patient approach helps build trust with even the shyest animals. Every pet is treated like my own—with compassion, attentiveness, and genuine love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—I’ve built my routine around the needs of my own pets, including a senior dog and a special needs cat. I’m used to early morning walks, scheduled feedings, medication times, play sessions, and quiet snuggle moments. Caring for animals is more than a task—it’s something I truly love and value. I have the flexibility in my schedule to provide consistent, reliable care, whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or last-minute walks. It’s not just part of my routine—it’s part of who I am. I provide care in your home, following routines, feeding, walking, and administering meds. I keep your space tidy and offer updates to ensure peace of mind.
