Dog Walking in Hastings

“Bonnie is great with Micajah! He loves going with her and she always gives him a good walk!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since even a young age. I was 11 years old when I got my own dog to take care of as well as raise. I’ve been hooked with animals majority of my life and love them all. They are family and I treasure as well as treat them like family. I do understand medical needs so if your pet needs special medicine I have no problem working with them. I am diligent and able to administer medication as well as go on walks or anything else you need for your pet. I also love to send updates of how the fur babies are doing. 😊 I live on a farm with a fenced in dog pen available. I also have 2 friendly dogs that play well with fur babies. However, I do understand the concerns of meeting new pets and have crates for my dogs to go to for separation if requested.

About: Currently working part-time at Animal Ark no-kill animal shelter I've had Dogs and/or cats my entire life. Everything from Shih Tzu, Great Danes, Shepards, and Mastiff. I know to respect a dogs size and energy without being afraid of them. I've simply never met a dog I didn't love to spend time with. Currently working most mornings at Animal Ark. Former job just went under, and I'm looking for an income supplement until I can find a full time job. I have no problem with long walks, I live in a small apartment with a cat so I can't take care of other people's pets there. For the sake of building trust I can only suggest starting with walks and if you, your pet, and I get along you become comfortable enough to watch your dog or cat when out of town, or check in while you're on a double.

“McKenna was so amazing for watching my Ollie while I was stuck in bed sick! I will definitely be utilizing her in the future :)”

“Hannah is a 10/10 recommend for your pet care needs! She is patient, thoughtful, and affectionate with her puppy. She always ensures his food/water bowels are clean, his sleeping space is well kept, and the yard is a welcoming place for him to enjoy himself! She also goes above and beyond to plan outings for her puppy where she showers him with love and undivided attention. Hannah will take amazing care of your furry loved one!”

“Gina was punctual for scheduled dog walks, and responsive to our needs. As we had our dog staying with my mom over a holiday weekend, Gina was happy to coordinate on details with her. Also, since my mom is a little timid with new people, Gina was kind and sensitive when meeting her for the first time. Mom said that she was friendly, and very good with our dog. She took her on 20 min walks, which met our expectations and needs. She also used Rover's system to consistently report in/out as to when walks began and concluded. Thanks to Gina for her great service and kindness. We'd be happy to call on you again!”

About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs since I was in high school. I have experience working with dogs all ages and sizes. Me and my family would take care and love your dog like they are our own. I work full time but have a flexible schedule where I can accommodate your pet(s). I am available some week days and most weekends, including holidays. Your pet will be well loved and attended for at our home. With a dog of my own, we go on frequent walks and have lots of snuggles. Your pet will feel like one of the family.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a little girl. I have currently been working as a Veterinary Technician for the last 17 years and am comfortable with old and young pets. I am also very comfortable administering medications of any kind. I am available most weekend’s starting Thursday evenings after 6pm until Sunday evenings. I am also available for some drop in walks or care on Wednesdays. I have yard with a tie out or am able to walk dogs. We have a 7 and 4 year old at home that are very comfortable around dogs and understand that some dogs need more “space” than others. Sadly we currently do not have any pets but will be able to focus solely on your pet.

About: In addition to having one or two dogs in my family for at least the last 20 years I also have taken care of family and friends dogs as well. I love the opportunity of getting to know new, furry friends, getting them out for exercise and play and especially snuggle time. I currently work full-time, but have very flexible hours. With enough notice, I can also work from your home or mine and I am available many weekends. Being a mother of two teenagers and a nurse, I am very patient loving and playful. I respect family rules and boundaries and I’m truly there to care for your beloved furry family member.

“Megan knows and loves all animals, but especially dogs. She is kind and caring to every animal I have ever seen her around. Dogs seem to sense her calmness and are always at ease around her because of her loving nature towards them. Megan is a very good dog owner, not only is she loving towards her dog, but I have also seen how she gives consistent messages around behaviors and expectations that have resulted in a well trained, loving and happy dog. I would highly recommend Megan to care for your pet without hesitation.”

About: I have always been a huge animal lover and have been around cats and dogs my whole life. I have one cat of my own and I have had her for 6 years now. I also have 2 dogs. I grew up always having cats and dogs in the family. I would love you watch your pets and make sure they are happy and healthy while you are out of town, or at work all day. Message me for dog walking, drop in visits, or other inquires. I will always treat your pet as my own, and make sure that they are comfortable while you can’t be with them. I hope that you contact me to help you take care of your pets while you are away from home! I am working part time throughout the summer and will start back to school in the fall. I am very flexible with my hours. I play with my own pets throughout each day and walk my dogs often. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that are friendly once they warm up to new people and that would love to meet new friends. At drop in visits, I care for your pet based off the information the owner gives me.

“Nadia is loving and playful with our dog. She is responsible and responsive. Our dog is happy to see her and get her cuddles-we highly recommend Nadia!”

“Hannah is a dog lover and is great with them! She has taken care of our dog on several occasions. We always rest easy when our dog is with her because we are confident she is in good hands. Not only does Hannah make sure basic needs are met- food, water, but she goes above and beyond by giving our dog lots of attention, walking her, giving her treats. And our dog is happy and relaxed when she is with Hannah.”

About: I am full time sitter and I have grown up with pets my whole life. I am full of energy and would love to go on walks and I will give your pet(s) all the attention they need maybe too much. I want to own like 6 dogs once I have the space. If possible I would love to spoil your pet(s) by getting them treats or a toy to play with them. I am great with time management and I will make sure to make time for your pet(s). I hope to hear from you soon. I have a pretty open availability and don't normally have to work on weekends. I can work around your schedule and have your pet(s) my main priority. I unfortunately don't board other pets at my house, I have a cat that's not comfortable with other pets. I also don't have a fenced in yard and live close to a busy road.

“Travis is a very caring person who loves his pets and those of others. He takes time and gives them his time and attention. He has stayed with my cat several times and I feel very comfortable leaving.”

About: I grew up with a dog. My husband and I have a 4 year old pup who will hopefully be a therapy dog someday! I have been dog-sitting for neighbors since I was 15. I am patient with humans and furry friends. I am willing to be flexible with your schedule and hope we can work together to be successful! I am a teacher, so I have time during holidays, breaks or summer to love up on your fur babies while you may be away. I am available during the day throughout the summer and some weekends if needed! I am also comfortable with cats. Please let me know if you have questions and we can chat! I work part time hours in the summer. I am able to be flexible in meeting your scheduling needs and can visit your furry friend during the day or evening. Caring for your dog in your home should feel safe and comfortable for them. I aim to keep a similar routine your dog/cat is used to in order to ease anxiety or stress that may arise from you being away.
