Dog Walking Haystack

“Savannah and our dog hit it off immediately. Very relaxed cheerful approach and exactly what our dog wanted from a walk.”

About: I have had many dogs and cats throughout my lifetime. I treat all animals with love and respect and enjoy their energy. I have experience with young puppies to senior dogs and cats. My dog Addie is 14 and is winding down these days. This gives me time for exercising your dog or cat or playing and giving them quality time in your home. I am a young at heart, very active 66 year old equestrian with lots of time and energy to give to your beloved fur babies. I have good endurance and can walk hills and go on hikes. However, I am not able to walk larger dogs that pull strongly on the leash and react to squirrels, cats, or other dogs due to the concern of falling. I am retired so I am available any day of the week. I am available to walk your dog (small to medium) or senior big dogs. I am available to come to your house to play and/or spend time with your dog or cat while you are away. My dog is 14 and a bit cranky so I cannot have animals in my home while she is still with me. However, I can come to your house and provide company and exercise to your dog or cat. I will stay with your pet during your absence up to 5 hours a day. I will feed, change the litter box, entertain them with walks and/or playtime. Or just sit with them and keep them company. Eventually I will be available to care for dogs or cats in my home or overnight at yours, once my girl passes on. At this time, my time is limited to 4 to 5 hours per day due to not wanting to leave my dog alone for longer than 5 hours.

About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medication, grooming, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I am available throughout the week and can be flexible with my schedule. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and can also arrange overnight stays when needed. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and other pet-care needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to maintain their routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I follow your instructions for feeding, walking, and playtime, and I’m happy to provide updates during my visits. I ensure their space remains clean and safe and always treat your home with respect. Whether it’s giving them extra cuddles, administering medications, or maintaining their daily habits, I focus on keeping your pet happy and well cared for.

“Cora Leigh was very responsive and was able to help me out with a pretty late request dog walk. She sent lots of pictures and followed all directions.”

“Lucy has been so great walking my dog for the last several months. She shows up when she says consistently, and has been there numerous times on short notice. Couldn't ask for a better dog walker and definitely worth the extra couple bucks.”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for both cats and dogs have always brought me a lot of joy. Growing up I always had cats and dogs in the house at all times. Caring for them through every stage of life has taught me a lot about patience, trust and the eclectic personalities that make pets so wonderful. I love learning about animal behavior and body language so I can help animals feel safe, understood and comfortable. I believe in meeting them where they are and earning their trust at their own pace, no matter the personality type. As a mainly remote working professional, I have the flexibility to provide dependable visits and walks throughout the day. I can easily fit care into my routine while updating parents with photos and messages along the way. I understand inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. As an owner with specific pet routines of my own, I know that each pet has their own preferences and comfort level that I pay close attention to. My goal is to provide dependable care, clear communication and peace of mind so you can be present while you're away knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I bond quickly with animals and I make sure to properly introduce myself so they don’t feel intimidated in their own home. To them I want to be a friend rather than someone who is just there I live across from a park where walking/playing with your dogs is fun and easy! I like to go outside for at least 30 minutes a day to get some fresh air and exercise. I am up early, making it easy to get dogs their first bathroom break in the morning. I have a short commute, so that means less time they have to be alone! I will stick to any schedules that they may have that way they feel a little bit more comfortable without their parents around. If anyone is feeling extra shy, I’ll slowly introduce myself until they are comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs of all sizes, and chickens. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, bathing, administering oral medications, cleaning litter boxes and animal areas, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I’m comfortable caring for both high-energy pets who love to play and older animals who may need a gentler approach and extra patience. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free. Whether your pet needs long walks, cuddle time, medication, enrichment activities, or just someone dependable to check in on them, I’m happy to help! I pride myself on being responsible, communicative, attentive, and trustworthy, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and open evening availability for walks, check-ins, feedings, playtime, and overnight care. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of routines and pet needs. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, litter box cleaning, bathing, administering oral medications, enrichment activities, crate routines, and providing lots of companionship and attention. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer environment, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I always aim to make pets feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, care, and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully while also making sure pets receive playtime, companionship, exercise, and lots of affection. I know how important consistency is for animals, especially when their owners are away. For dogs, I provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication administration if needed, and plenty of engagement and supervision. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box cleaning, enrichment/playtime, brushing if requested, medication administration, and calm companionship that matches each cat’s comfort level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

“Emilina was an amazing dog walker for my dog Andy and always sent so many photos of him and my cat to show me they were doing well. I highly recommend them!”
