Dog Walkers in Hardscrabble, DE

“Chelsea was awesome. 👏 She paid careful attention to Winston and was patient with him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with a new person. She followed all my instructions and took care of our baby. Will use her anytime I need help with Winston in the future.”

About: I live in a home who foster dogs in need. Home with the dog all day so they'll have that attention and someone caring for them. I can take care of elderly dogs that use diapers full proper care even all the way to puppies and there high energy . Me being young i do play with the dogs i like to run around with them to keep myself and them entertained. I am a MMA fighter so I'm free everyday my gym is right here at home where I train at so I'm never off the property unless I have to be. I have a fenced in back yard that the dog will have access to and when inside your dog will be with me in my room making itself a comfortable home anywhere it pleases.

About: I've been the primary person caring for the household dog for over five years now. I have a keen eye for details and a high sense of responsibility when it comes to the care of those who cannot speak for themselves. I also have experience hosting for multi-day sleepovers and managing the dynamics of a small (2-3 dog) temporary pack. I work full time during the week, but am available all major holidays and weekends. I currently walk and feed my dog twice a day, so adding your pup to the routine would be a breeze! Although I don't have a fenced in yard, there is a safe neighborhood nearby where we walk our dog daily. I have one dog currently who has loved every other dog he's ever met and would be happy to share his toys! We do allow pets on the couches & beds, but would be able to crate at night if that is preferred.

About: Hello! I'm Kennedy. I am 27 and I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was about 6. I am a pet-parent to 2 cats and a dog. I got my first very own cat 11 years ago and rescued a 4 week old kitten off the street about 3 years ago and have been raising them with my 5 year old husky. I grew up raising farm animals, dogs, and indoor/outdoor cats. I have experience with bigger dogs as my parents have a bernese mountain dog and a yellow lab. I love working with cats and dogs and being able to see each of their individual personalities is my favorite part of meeting new animals. I have my own transportation and I also do not smoke or drink. This is my only job so I will have plenty of time to give your fur babies the very best care! I am available any day of the week. I will keep a close eye on your pets while I am with them and dogs will be kept on leash while on walks. Please let me know of any special care requirements your pet may have.

About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I have potty trained several puppies in that time. I currently have 1 senior dog that I adopted from the shelter and 2 young dogs that my fiancé raised from puppies. They are my comfort. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I've watched my families dogs and cats while they have been out of town. I have experience with raw feeding as well. I'm a stay at home mom so I have pretty open availability. I homeschool my kids, but that doesn't take away from being able to care for others animals at all. I can walk dogs in your yard or around your neighborhood. We have a large yard that is great for walking dogs around. Plenty of space to wear even the most energetic dog out. We have children so they would get more than enough love and cuddles.

About: I got my first pet when I was 7 and have had a mix of dogs and cats in my life since then. Have cared for pets of family members and friends for many years and enjoy spending time with puppies and kittens to seniors. I believe that mental and physical stimulation is important for all, and will treat your pet as it is my own. I am newly retired and have full availability to care for your pet at your home.This includes everything from walks to play time to overnight stays. Upon arrival to your home, which is where I will be caring for your pet, I will take the time for them to become familiar with me and then i will follow all specific instructions for their care. I can also give you updates if you would like.

About: I have had many decades of well-loved Labradors, a couple exceptional Mastiffs, and a loveable yet crazy Brittany. In our home we have two full time cats that moved in after our neighbor passed away. Our family lives have always included pets and a multitude of farm critters that we care, love and enjoy. I am comfortable and have experience with large dog personalities as well as the medical and physical needs of seniors. And I can follow directions! I work full time as faculty at a local college, however my schedule has flexibility throughout the week as well as through the day. Typically I am available most days and locally can travel easily for pet care. Dogs can be boarded here as long as they are cat and dog friendly. There are 2 cats and I also watch our son's Brittany Spaniel during the week. For dogs that do stay here, they are allowed on the furniture as well as on our bed and there are multiple dog beds for their choice. Our backyard is fenced away from the road behind a privacy fence. For those dogs that like to swim there is a concrete salt water pool available during the season. Whatever directives the pet family prefers will be followed with updates regularly.

About: I grew up with my family being a foster home to all animals from dogs, cats to Amazon parrots to llamas! I have my vet tech license, I worked at an animal hotel/daycare where we babysat, groomed, bathed, walked and played with every animal like they were our own! I have my own business and work from home. My schedule is completely flexible to your needs! I know some things are last minute and I’m the person who you can count on to especially help in last minute situations 🙂 I have 3 acres and fenced in yard that’s divided to cater to every pets needs. If they don’t get along with other animals that’s fine, if they need extra attention that’s fine! Your pets will be in good hands 24/7. I follow directions carefully as no pet is the same!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a child. I grew up with many pets and many times I was their primary caregiver. I love animals, and would love to help take care of yours! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I could work with set schedules or flexible hours. I can be available throughout the day and night. Since I work from home, I have availability daily to walk or board dogs. I can do long walks outside, play time, and frequent potty breaks. I can also board dogs, I live in a development with lots of sidewalks and grass areas to walk dogs. I keep a close eye on my pets, and always make sure they are safe. From durable toys, to keeping the floors free of anything that could be eaten, I will make sure that all dogs are safe to roam about. The most important thing to me is that the dog is comfortable and happy.

“Lisa is wonderful. My anxious dog that has trouble trusting anyone, warmed up to her on their first walk together. She is a lovely, upbeat person and very flexible with scheduling. I'd recommend Lisa to anyone.”

About: Ive taken care of dogs for a long time, my family friends have always relied on me to take care of their pups to feed, walk or sit! I’m currently working a part time job! I have plenty of time to fit any schedule that works to take care of your dog! Feed or sit! I have no pets at my house so you don’t have to worry about your dog being around another dog if that’s your concern I live in a big neighborhood so I have a lot of space to take your dog on walks!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10 from puppies to seniors. Starting with my own personal dogs, to taking care of friends pets, to working with an established company. I’ve done everything from walking, loving, feeding, administering medicine, to scooping poo. I’m currently working full time during the weekdays but will be available for you on the weekends. There are some nights during the weekdays that I can make myself available as well. Safety and care are my top priority!! Your pet will be well taken care of while in my hands. All doors are triple checked when I walk out of them to make sure your baby doesn’t find a way out. Kennels will also be checked multiple times to ensure the latches are secure. Not only is your baby's safety a top priority but your house is as well. I do check doors, things on the counter, the floors for any accidents or items that might have been grabbed, stoves, and make sure the cabinets are shut.

“This is the second time we have used April's services. What a terrific experience! We attended a wedding in PA and left Luna, our chihuahua, in April's care for an extended period of time. April provided all the loving care (and then some!) that we expected in our absence. As far as we are concerned, April is "second to none" and trust that she will be available the next time we need her services. Thank you ROVER for having such a wonderful care provider available!”

About: Other than being a Dog Mom for over 30 years, I raised 4 kids too ! 2 of our dogs passed in their senior years, so I have experience in assisting them with their senior needs. I am currently available 7 days a week for local services. Looking for ongoing long term clients. Flexible schedule 5am to 9pm for drop in or walking services. We have a quiet home with no other pets or children. Endless golfcart rides for your Fur-baby should they love that ! And lots of walks in the community.

About: Hello ! My name is Annie and I am a long time owner and lover of pets. Since I was 10 years old, I have pet sat for neighbors and families when they went away on vacation or other various outings. As a child, this taught me valuable skills on learning to care for our beloved furry friends, as well as gaining confidence in my abilities to care for different breeds. I have carried these skills and abilities well into my adulthood. I would love to be the helping hand that you need for your pet ! I am currently working as a nanny part-time Mon-Fri. I am available every evening after 4pm. Regarding the weekends, I am available anytime that you need me. My weekend availability is very flexible. I would feel most comfortable caring for the clients pet in the comfort of their home because that is an environment that they know and love. Additionally, I do not have a fence at my house so I think that would be safest option for both the sitter and client.

About: I've had dogs and cats in my family since I was 3! I've pet sat for neighbors, volunteered, and assisted with support animals for my friends. I work in a school so I'm also consistently available evenings, weekends, and during school breaks. I am available from 3:45 on on most school days. Don't hesitate to reach out! I am flexible and understand. Animals need to feel like they are loved and trusted the same way people do, and I am always happy to play and show that love!
