Dog Walking Gruvertown

About: As a dedicated dog mom to two big boys — Tucker (95 lb Pitbull) and Roman (75 lb Boxer) — I understand that every pet has unique needs. Tucker has skin allergies, so I’m experienced with special care routines, and Roman has focal seizures and requires medication every 12 hours, which has made me very comfortable administering meds and staying attentive to health changes. I grew up with a Miniature Schnauzer, Snuggles (14 wonderful years), and our cat, Cuddles (18 years), so caring for animals has truly been a lifelong part of who I am. I treat every pet like family and know how important it is to have someone trustworthy, patient, and loving looking after them. I have open availability for anytime of day. I have a reliable source of transportation. Just let me know what times you need & I will be there. My dogs have a fenced in yard but we also take our boys out on walks around town regularly. I am comfortable walking your pet on leash.

“Jessenia has great communication while we are away, double checking feeding schedules and offering to add last minute walks if needed. She provides peace of mind!”

About: I have been in pet care since I 2019 starting with my own puppy. Since then I have worked in professional pet care in education and training through Petco and local businesses. I am dedicated to providing the best and personalized care to your fur baby. I know how important trusting someone to watch over your pet is. I myself have three dogs, two cats, one bird, one spider, five frogs, and one house full of beautiful chaos and love. I want to be the person to put your mind at ease while you are away. During my time with your animals, I will treat them as they are my own with kindness and respect. I will be honored to help care for your little (or big) pet babies! I want this to be my full time job as much as possible. I have my internship (animal care at a local AZA certified zoo) Monday and Friday, but am otherwise free. I have a two story duplex with a fenced in yard in a quiet and safe neighborhood. I love being outdoors and can even offer hikes after getting to know your dogs a little more. I thrive on attention to detail and can even do medication administration and body examinations.

About: Whether you own a cat or a dog or some other pet, every pet owner knows that our animals play a key role in our life. They are there through thick and thin, always wanting to provide comfort and pure love, while requesting it all in return as it is much deserved. I believe through compassion, love, and the pure joy of my love for animals, I am able to work with any animal giving them, alongside their owner, a true peace of mind. I have experience with senior dogs who may need a little more time to walk or some extra help up on the bed. I am able to provide medication (liquid, tablet, topical, ointments, etc.). I am very thorough and detail oriented and am able to provide that same form to both the pet and for the owner in their own individual ways. They say if you love what you do you will never work a day in your life: I have yet to work as I LOVE what I do. I look forward to providing the best environment, form of love, and any other need they may have, in order to provide an exceptional service to you and yours! Animals know when they are truly cared for and yours will note that from the moment we meet and it will shine through to you to see first hand and provide the high level of confidence in me with your loved ones! I am very thankful to have a job that is work from home so I am able to provide 24/7 care, many walks, and endless potty breaks! I have 2 amazing boys of my own: Hercules - French Bulldog and Leo - Old English Bulldog. These boys are my world and needless to say very spoiled. From laying in bed with me, to an endless supply of toys and treats, these boys get birthday parties and much more! I allow the pets to lay in bed, utilize the sofa and chairs, and have free roam of the house. I follow the client's routines to a T as well in order to maintain consistency as consistency is key!

“Liz is FANTASTIC. Scheduling and communication were very easy. My dog is shy and fearful around new people, but he warmed up to Liz immediately. She knew exactly how to approach him and pick up on his cues and make him feel comfortable. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇

About: I work at a groomers, so I have experience with handling all kinds of dogs big or small! I’ve had dogs all my life growing up , and friends have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs countless times. Caring for pets is already a big part of my daily life. My biggest goal is to make sure all of them feel comfortable and safe while they’re in my hands. As well as owning animals my whole life, I feel extremely comfortable around all types of dogs. I care for every furry friend as if they were my own. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide plenty of potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to give medications if needed, clean up any accidents, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing 😊

“It was my first time using the Rover app. Ashley walked my pup and was well acquainted with all 3 of my doggies. Ashley is so kind and very knowledgeable. I've grown especially fond of Ashley because she is sincere, caring, and above all, outgoing. Thank you so much!”

About: I've taken care of various animals my whole life. I have watched and help train the pets of friends and family for many years. As a special needs dog mom, I understand the importance of quality care and would provide nothing but the best for your pet! I am a stay at home mom so my availability is fairly flexible for me to have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I don't have a fenced in yard but have a lot of property to walk and explore giving plenty of exercise! I can also travel to your home and spend time with your pet in the comfort of their own home. Walks, play time and cuddles for your pet whenever you need!

About: If your pet could choose their sitter, I’m hoping they’d pick the person who is already excited to meet them! I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and I’ve always had a soft spot for the furry members of the family. I haven’t been able to have pets of my own for a while, so I’ve happily adopted my friends’ cats and dogs instead—affectionately calling them my **“furry nieces and nephews.”** I’m the person who wants to hear all about their personality, remembers their favorite treats, and is perfectly happy spending an unreasonable amount of time giving them attention. Last year, I took that love a step further and volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I spent my time walking and caring for dogs. I absolutely loved it and realized that getting to know different animals—and figuring out what makes each one comfortable and happy—is something I genuinely enjoy. What I think sets me apart is that I don’t see pet sitting as simply stopping by to feed a pet and check a box. **I want your pet to actually have a good time while you’re away.** Whether that means a long sniff-filled walk, an energetic game of fetch, a cozy afternoon of cuddles, or simply sitting nearby for a nervous pet who needs some company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Every animal has their own personality, quirks, routines, and preferences, and I love getting to know them. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and completely spoiled—and for you to feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. I’m looking for a flexible way to spend more time doing something I genuinely love, and I’d be thrilled to add your pets to my ever-growing list of furry nieces and nephews. ❤️🐶🐱 One of the best things about my schedule is that I work two part-time jobs, and both are very flexible. This allows me to build pet care into my day and offer visits at different times rather than being tied to a traditional 9–5 schedule. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the week, with even more flexibility on the weekends. I can also make multiple visits throughout the day when your pet needs a little extra attention. My typical availability looks like: Mondays & Wednesdays: I have the most flexibility and can usually stop by up to three times throughout the day. Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays: These days are a little busier, but I can still provide a morning visit and an evening visit after 4 PM. Weekends: I have more flexibility and can make multiple visits throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and location. I know every pet has a different routine, and I’m happy to work with you to create a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat needs a quick morning check-in, some evening playtime, or multiple visits throughout the day, I have the flexibility to make it work. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for a pet in their home, I treat their space and routine with the same respect I would want for my own home and animals. I take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, litter box or potty routines, favorite toys, hiding spots, and any quirks or behaviors I should know about. I know that cats especially can be sensitive to changes, so I try to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’m also very mindful of home security. I make sure doors are securely closed, follow any instructions regarding alarms or entry, and am careful with windows, doors, and anything else your pet might get into. I’ll never leave a pet in an unsafe situation or do anything outside of the care instructions you’ve provided. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable knowing that someone trustworthy is looking after your pet and your home. I’m happy to send updates, photos, and little check-ins so you can see how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Brittany is an excellent dog walker who always shows up on time always provides excellent updates and photos of my dog. I am very happy with her excellent service and would highly recommend her.”

About: I am familiar with all forms and types of animals from mice to birds, but I've found that dogs prefer being walked the most. I am a freelance artist so I am available 24/7 and have experience with raising puppies, training, teaching new tricks to old dogs, and giving unsolicited advice on dog collar styles. I've cared for cats, dogs, birds, and even children. Rest assured your pet will be safe with me. I treat my clients like family, since I will be taking care of theirs after all. In fact my family has been pet and home sitters for three generations! I have experience with caring for elderly pets, administration of medication, certified in human CPR and I know dog CPR, and caring for sick or injured animals. Get out of the house and explore the neighborhood, maybe even check out new treats at the pet shop. I want to ensure they have a good night's sleep. I prefer a fenced in yard that way it adds an extra degree of protection against types of critters who might try and pick a fight.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes for over 5 years and personally own a husky and a Belgian Malinois mix, so I’m very experienced with high-energy and large breeds.

Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to care for their pets as if they were my own! Your pets safety and comfort are always my top priority. I currently work part-time while attending college, which gives me flexibility during the week. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting on most weekdays and weekends. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care, exercise, and attention to your pet. I prioritize safety and clear communication. I always follow owner instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, and routines. I’m comfortable using crates if needed and ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

“Thanks, Jenna! I should have mentioned Inga’s poop has been loose the last couple of days. We think it’s a combo of her heartworm/flea tick medication that is now in a combined dose and that we had decreased the amount of rice we give her. Not a good move…we’re upping the amount of rice, again.”
