Dog Walking Gum Branch

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that pets and owners can trust. My background includes caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, puppies, senior pets, high-energy breeds, and pets with unique routines or special needs. Growing up around animals and spending years working closely with them has taught me how to read pet behavior, create a calm environment, and build trust quickly. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine connection I create with every animal. I treat each pet like family not just another appointment. I focus on safety, reliability, communication, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication administration, or overnight care, I go above and beyond to give owners peace of mind and pets the attention they deserve. Full weekend availability Saturday and Sunday with part time availability early in the mornings and after 4 pm- throughout the night during the week days I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where pets are treated like part of the family. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, structured routines, plenty of playtime, exercise, and individualized attention based on their personality and needs. Safety is always my top priority I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space, closely monitor interactions, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners always feel informed and comfortable while away. As a pet owner myself with a friendly golden retriever puppy, I understand the importance of trust, patience, and proper care. My puppy is well-socialized and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for visiting pets while still respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries. With over 10 years of hands-on pet experience, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone pet owners can truly count on for peace of mind.

About: Hi! I am Christy! I’m married to Jefrey, and we have 3 lively, happy children who love dogs! We currently have no dogs ourselves but we have do have chickens in a coop. I’ve grown up with dogs and provide care for friends pets when they need. We love to provide people with trustworthy, loving care for their pets and know how important that is. I am comfortable with daily medication giving. Although I will be the only one responsible for caring for your pets, we do ask that all dogs be friendly with children and we make sure our children respect dog boundaries. We have a large 6ft privacy fence in the back yard with the front and sides of the fence being privacy fence, and the back part of the fence is chain link. The dogs will be free to go in and out throughout the day as they please. I recently had to leave my job to stay home and care for my children, so I have plenty of time to be home and take care of your pets while you are away! In the morning, we would get up and let the dogs outside to go potty and get some fresh morning air. They will have plenty of opportunity for cuddles or playtime throughout the day, and will be able to go in and out as they please. I have three children who love animals. All dogs must be child friendly, and I will make sure that my children are respectful of the dog's boundaries. We have a fenced in back yard and plenty of space for them to run and play.

“Jordan is awesome! I never have to worry about my dog when she’s scheduled for a walk. He’s immensely taken care of along with our cat, who she also pets and gives so much love to. Couldn’t ask for someone better!”

About: I've been raised with dogs most of my life and currently have three of my own. Dogs have been a blessing in my life, but I am not afraid of caring for other animals too! I have my own large fish tanks as well as a tarantula. I'm very meticulous when it comes to the care of critters - paws, feathers, scales and all! I have raised and trained my GSD from puppyhood onward, am familiar with reward-based training, and love taking dogs out for long walks as it keeps them and myself healthy and happy. I am available for any and all services, to include weekends and holidays! I lead a relatively active lifestyle, and love walking dogs to get my steps in daily. Nothing scares me more than losing a beloved pet, especially one that is a track star like my own little lady. When it comes to your own fur babies, I am more than happy to ensure that their safety and security is a top priority. Any critter will be cared for as if they were my own.

About: I have 4 years of pet sitting. Professional experience as a kennel lead at a dog daycare/boarding facility, an animal Rescue Specialist & an Animal Care Specialist at a shelter. Besides taking care of my own animals on a daily basis, I also have 3 years of professional animal experience. I do not take on multiple jobs at a time so that I can properly provide care. I am able to work weekends and overnights upon request. Prices are negotiable! Along with letting dogs outside for potty breaks and play time, I can also pick up dog poop upon request. Typically if I care for your animals for more than a few days, I will ask what day your trash is collected and put it outside. I collect mail from mailboxes so it doesn’t pile up, clean floors and tidy up, wash food and water bowls and can wash bedding if I need to stay the night. Let me know if your animals need to be caged when left alone, if they have any medications, how much they eat and at what time of day.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors who trusted me with their furry family members. In addition to years of hands-on experience, I also spent 4 years working in the veterinary field as a veterinary assistant/technician, giving me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. Additionally I have fostered for local rescues, litters of puppies to senior pups, all with individual needs. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medication administration, senior support, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for lots of snuggles and walks. I am able to stop by for quick check-ins or stay for a few hours to get those afternoon zoomies out. I have experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments and breeds, allowing me to calmly and comfortably crate, medicate or walk pets. Having the knowledge and hands-on experience allows me to stay calm in any situation which helps your pets feel safe.

About: What sets me apart is that I have experience caring for a variety of animals, not just dogs and cats. I currently care for 4 cats, 3 dogs, fish, a turtle, and a jumping spider, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities. I’m attentive to details and take the time to make sure each animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m especially patient with animals that may be nervous or take time to warm up to someone new. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication or care instructions, cleaning routines, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and attention. My goal is to care for your pets the same way I would want someone to care for mine: with patience, responsibility, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own animals. I’m used to keeping consistent feeding and cleaning schedules, making time for play and attention, and paying close attention to changes in their behavior or needs. I enjoy being around animals and would be happy to make caring for your pets a regular part of my day while giving them the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I care for pets by following their normal routines and paying close attention to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their own home, I make sure they receive the appropriate feeding, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and attention they’re used to. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medications, cleaning, and other specific care needs. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and never force interaction. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away, while also respecting their home and keeping things clean and orderly.

About: Growing up I would pet sit for family friends and family members. Which lead to being referred to outside family relationships! I have over 10 years of experience. I have trained my very own puppy along with family members. I run my own business and have a pretty open schedule during this off season. Would love to occupy my time helping others and to meet new furry friends. 😁 I make sure to spend a decent amount of time with the animals during drop ins. I follow instructions on feeding times and make sure to run them out and love on them before putting away again. For walks, we’d go for about 30-hour depending on the energy level of the pooch :).

About: Hi! I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m a proud dog mom to five of my own and have spent many years fostering dogs, giving me experience with a wide variety of personalities and individual needs. I’m very involved in the dog sport community, participating in dock diving, FAST CAT, scent work, obedience, and other activities with my own dogs. Through training and competing, I’ve developed a strong understanding of canine behavior, body language, enrichment, and the importance of building trust with each dog. I also have extensive personal experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medical conditions, mobility limitations, and special care requirements. I understand that every dog is different, whether they’re a high-energy athlete, a playful puppy, or a senior who just wants some extra love and attention. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog is treated like family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I want every owner to feel confident knowing their dog is receiving the same love and attention I give my own! Animals are a huge part of my everyday life! With multiple dogs of my own, pet care is already built into my daily routine. My days revolve around feeding, exercise, training, enrichment, and making sure everyone gets the attention they deserve. I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets, maintaining consistent schedules, and adjusting routines to meet each animal’s individual needs. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and I enjoy making time for it every day! Safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and set of needs, and I believe in treating each one as an individual. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, temperaments, and activity levels, including those requiring extra patience or special care. I prioritize a safe, structured environment, appropriate supervision, and positive interactions. I also believe communication is extremely important, so I make sure owners feel comfortable and informed while their pets are in my care. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and loved!
