Dog Walking in Hermitage

About: I have over 10 plus years working with animals. Anything from cats, dogs, birds, farm animals, and even exotics. I have worked as a doggie daycare Attendant, boarding a Attendant, vet tech assistant and vet tech, along with bathing and trimming nails. I am currently very open in my schedule. I would have plenty of time to check on you fur babies, take care of them, walk them, or even play with them. I would ask for specific instructions from the owners of the animals on how they would like their pets cared for and how they go about routines with their animals.

“Stephanie is great!! She sends me photos of Zanya on their walks along with a step counter and I love that. She's very responsive and always updates on how their walks went. Bonus because I have a lot of exotic pets as well and she doesn't discriminate 🥰 Great dog Walker and pet sitter!”

“Sarah was absolutely fabulous. Friendly and was very communicative. She was very attentive to our dog Drummer and he loved her. It's comforting to know he was taken care and we could trust her. We will definitely be repeat customers.”

“Jeramiah has watched my dogs many different times and every time he does an amazing job. They love him just as much as he loves them. He always has them playing fetch or other fun activities. He does a great job with his dog Twix and loves her so much. He’s always doing something with them wether it’s outside throwing the ball or inside relaxing. He watches my sisters dogs as well and takes great care of them too. He is great with all dogs because he loves them, and he’ll take amazing care of yours too. My family and I will definitely hire him again!”

“Paige A would make an amazing pet sitter or dog walker, Shes responsible, smart and of course AMAZING with animals. Paige has two small dogs of her own whom she takes excellent care of. Paige can easily be trusted with your beloved pet.”

About: I love the interaction with dogs and have many years of experience caring for my own pets along with friend’s, neighbor’s, and relative’s dogs. I can provide a clean and safe environment for your dog. I am currently available throughout the week both day and evening hours to care for your dog. Your dog will receive care and attention around the clock. I have a nice large fenced in backyard where your dog can run in a quiet private neighborhood setting. The turf is well maintained and safe.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was ten and have been around them as early as I can remember. All my friends and family have had and currently do have pets. Currently this is all I'm doing so I can play with your pet(s) from 2pm-6pm. That give me plenty of time to care for and play with them. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I can crate them if need be and letting them play inside or outside is not a problem. I will leash them if backyard is not fenced or for any other reason a leash is required.

“Without hesitation, without any doubt I would have Kelly watch our fur babies again! We have two terrier/yorkie mixes. Our girl is very anxious and timid, especially around strangers. However, at our very first meet BOTH our dogs allowed Kelly to pet them and walk them. There are just certain people that animals gravitate to and just know that they have that kindness about them-Kelly is one of those people!”

“I’m so glad we found Lara! She came to our home to have a “meet and greet” with our girls and made sure she had all the necessary information to provide their care. She sent us a text/photo almost every day so we could see them (although most times they weren’t very cooperative about having a photo taken. On our return, she followed up with us and we had a lovely thank you gift waiting for us. I would highly recommend Lara for pet-sitting services!”

About: Please Bring your dog over to have some fun! We have two corgis and one cat. We can separate animals if need be. We also have four children who love animals. Husband and I are both prior Marines and have lived in San Antonio for 7 years. We love playing in the yard, going for walks, and hanging out. Your dog will be safe and well taken care of. We will do our best to accommodate you and your pets' needs if you have any special requests. We have a large upstairs and lots of space. We will update you as much as you like with video and pictures. Located close to Lackland AFB, off of ray Ellison drive, and next to the Walmart. QUESTIONS? Feel free to message me anytime ☺️ I work from home and may be gone for up to two hours out of the house on some occasions. There will always be someone at the house with your dog though. We pretty much do everything at home! I have a fenced in yard and a kiddie pool outside. We will never leave your pup outside in this texas heat. We do have fun in the hose outside! We have 4 kids and do gentle and slow interaction with new dogs. My female corgi does bark a lot so if need be we can seperate animals for a break. Corgis can be very Vocal. Water bowls are always filled and I do feedings separately as well to ensure safety. We have plenty of dog toys, no need to bring anything but food unless you feel you want to! I don’t want your pups favorite toy to get destroyed while playing! Feel free to bring a blanket or item with your scent on it if your dog can be anxious. This usually helps. If you crate your dog,or they tend to chew items, please bring what they are comfortable in. Otherwise they are allowed to sleep on our couches. Thanks for reading! I take my kids to school at 7am. We wake up at 739 and I let the dogs out to potty. I am home by 745am and do morning feeding at 8am. I may go to the gym after that and will be home by 10am. My husband will be home during that time. I also have a steady drop on visit for two pups at 11-1130. They live close so I am back by 11:40. We play during the day either inside or the back yard. I can do walks too if you like. I usually home the rest of the day unless i pick my kids up at 230. If so my husband will be home. Other wise we are here and I do night feedings for my dogs at 7pm. My female is on her crate by 10pm for the night but my male is allowed to stay out and sleeps on tue couch. This is an average day for us,and of course I’ll follow any feeding schedule you have and send lots of photos. Safety of our children and your pets are my top priority. I will never leave an animal alone with a child. Our dogs will be crated if they are too over stimulating for your dog. I find slow introduction creates the best bonds. I prefer to do local in house visits. I am very respectful of what you ask me to do for your pet. As an example, one client I have has two dogs. I come at the same time and stay for 30minutes. I let them out and one stays on leash for their safety with the neighbor dogs. After potty we play and do one more potty break before a treat. I also lock up for them when I leave. Either way I’m here for you and your pet!

“Great with the animals her love and effection for them is highly noticeable . Hired her for when i am at work and cant let them out we have three dogs and she cared for them amazingly from playing with to walking them and making sure our oldie got her meds.”

“Maile is a great caregiver to our two dogs. She walks them everyday and gives them a great deal of love and affection. Maile has worked with our dog Ella trainer and testing her to become a therapy pet and she is working with nursing homes in the area to bring joy to the elderly. I couldn’t think of a more responsible person. She is a great dog mom and wife. I know she will be a great fit with Rover.”

About: Hi everyone! Our names are Karen and Chad and we’ve always had a love for dogs since childhood. The thought of caring or rescuing a dog has always been top of our minds. When we got married, we adopted a greyhound racer. We had him for 7 years and lost him unfortunately due to cancer. Since we lost him, we’ve wanted to continue helping/caring for dogs and can’t think of a better way then helping others with their fur animals. We know the working world doesn’t always accommodate balancing out caring for our fur friends and work and would love to help with that! Please chose us to care for your fur friends whether it’s a walk or a overnight stay in our home! We will treat them with the utmost love and care! We are available for stays and walks in our home from Thursday until Sunday night. We work from home Thursday and Fridays so can walk them whenever needed! We have a nice back yard but do not currently have a fence (at this time). We can walk the dogs in our backyard with a leash and or take them to nearby parks. We do have a dog bed and dog water/food bowels with plenty of space in our 2200 sq.ft home.

“Kaitlyn did an awesome job with my 2 dogs, who are considerably different in age, size, and temperament. This was my first experience using Rover, and I could not be more pleased.”

“Often times I would be away fro. Home too long because of jobs that I needed to do a few towns, or even a few states, away. I had two cats named Jasper and Jinx. They almost literally were my world, they gave me a reason to keep on keeping on. But unfortunately, work needed to be done. So I called upon my good friend Veronica to see if she could help me out. And every single time I asked her, she said yes, without hesitation. They were fairly timid cats, but for whatever reason, they had no problem staying with her. Veronica has a compassionate heart, that is both loving and understanding. If you need a animal sitter, than look no further.”

“Annalese is extremely responsible and is absolutely a pet lover! She has grown up with pets her entire life and knows how to care for them well while also showing them a lot of love and affection. I give her my highest recommendation.”

“Omg yes i love kaylee she is the best dog mom ever she is very responsible and very loving and caring i trust her fully she’s awesome”

“Nathan was great and very communicative the whole time. Would definitely use him again!”

“Jodie really does have a way with animals. I know she works with a service dog training organization as well, and because of that work she's really good with working with people as well. She's really good with getting the "whole family" dynamic established and optimized. Jodie has worked with my Staffy on a number of occasions and he absolutely adores her. I can guarantee we'll be back next time I go out of town. The only trouble I have is that my Staffy loves her so much he doesn't want to leave! So I can safely assure you that she'll make your doggo one happy pupper!”

About: I aim to be your dog's new favorite person (after you, of course). I am a certified professional dog trainer with a specialization in timid and fearful dogs. I have worked with hundreds of owners over the last 5 years, helping them solve behavior issues from barking to pulling and stealing food off the table. Before that, I was a reptile hobbyist who bred Tokay Geckos, believe it or not (they're called the pitbulls of the gecko world because they bite and don't let go)! So hard-to-love animals are my bread and butter. As a behavior specialist and a certified trainer, I know how to act around any dog. Yes, even the really ornery ones. I am patient, I never yell, and if you have a doggie cam, you might catch some of the entertaining antics I pull to keep your dog safe and happy. I use the LIMA model - Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive. What this means is, I will never force your animal to do something they don't want to do. My goal is to build trust so that your animal will be able to adapt easily without you there and will learn to trust other humans as well. Because I am a behavior specialist, I know what *NOT* to do, so that you don't come back to a dog that was worse off than when you left! Oh, and I'm also an artist, so a sketch or portrait of your dog is not off the table! I love drawing pictures for my clients. When I'm not painting or cleaning, I'm either training my dog, or coaching people virtually to train theirs. I am currently working Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays as a virtual dog trainer, but Sun/Mon/Tue/Thur are up for grabs! My dog Jigen is a very well-behaved pup. We don't have a fenced in yard so I take her out on a leash, or use a tie-out with supervision. She eats her meals out of puzzle toys and she gets brushed every evening. I work on her nails twice a week to make sure she tolerates me clipping them. She is free to roam inside all day and night, but I do put her in the crate when we leave the house (just in case).
