“Alexandra is great! She has been my twice weekly dog walker for about a month now. She communicates extremely well and is very reliable. She leaves detailed info on how the walk went with my dog, which I appreciate. She has gone out of her way to accommodate Ada, who can at times be shy with new people. Would recommend!”

About: Hi! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My love of animals is probably one of my most defining characteristics. I grew up taking care of my family’s dogs & cats, volunteered at a local shelter throughout high school & college, & I now have a dog & 2 cats of my own! I’m also a certified Physician Assistant, so giving medications or injections is no problem! I recently accepted a job where I am able to work partially from home, which allows my schedule to be very flexible in the early afternoon to evening. I’m also available varying weekends depending on my travel plans! I’m very thorough & detail-oriented. I know what it’s like to want your pet to be in the best hands, so that’s what I’m here to offer!

“Carol did an amazing job and my little Maggie fell in Love with her unlike any other Dog walkers. she was on time and every though it was raining, she managed to get our girl an a great walk. Book her for sure 👍❤️”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My first dog on my own as an adult is currently a senior. He is a very sweet and gentle dog who loves to play with new friends. I have about 10 years of experience, dog sitting friends and family members' dogs. I am comfortable working with food aggressive dogs, highly anxious dogs, and everyone in between. I am experience with administering medications, working with puppies and supporting senior dogs. I have a great track record with leash training, potty training and winning over anxious dogs. I use positive reinforcement (single ingredient dried pumpkin treats) to keep your pups attention and gain their trust. I am happy to do a meet and greet beforehand in order to gain your trust too :) I look forward to working with you! I currently work part-time, Monday, Wednesday, Friday 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. I am available for walks after 2:00 p.m. on those days and all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available Monday through Friday for pet sitting, but will be out of the house for the hours of 8-1 MWF. My partner works from home, so if your dog need 24/7 care we can arrange that. As I mentioned in my bio, my main training mechanism is positive reinforcement. I do not believe in punishing dogs. In my experience it does not work and does not feel good! That being said, I am happy to work with you and come up with a plan together.

“Connor was so patient with us today! Minnie is still getting used to new things so she didn’t go for a walk. But Connor was super professional and helpful!!!”

About: I have always had dogs growing up, and I have been watching other dogs for many years. I work with both big and small dogs. I work Monday through Friday 9-5 but i am available before and after work as well as weekends. I am also available Wednesdays all day I believe in taking things slow and earning trust. Animals deserve to be respected in their homes, and I think this is key to good vibes

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for dogs of all kinds, including reactive pups and those needing medication. I truly love animals and take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. Working from home allows me to be flexible and fully present—your pet gets real attention, not just a quick visit. I work from home so I have to ability to step away to care for people’s pets. I am also available most days and times It’s more than just walking dogs or making sure they have food and water. I want to make sure they know they are cared for emotionally as well and get some energy out by playing and interacting

About: I have had both dogs and cats my entire life and even had a ferret at one point. I am a dog walker and cat and dog sitter (or cat walker if you would like!). Some of my current clients have been with me for 5 years. I also volunteer at a local shelter. I can drop in after 3 on most days since I am a student and weekends I am more flexible so I can work around your needs. I have a closed yard for my German Shepard and my cat is strictly an indoor cat. We use a mixture of dry and wet food for both animals and have frequent potty breaks for the dog.

About: I have a dog of my own, a Shih Tzu that I have personally cared for a decade. So walking is no problem at all, I’m used to it. There is also my cat Momo that I have since 2023. I also have worked at a doggy daycare place so I have worked with multiple dogs at once and fed them on time. Also took them for walks and will clean their paws afterwards. I even keep them entertained by giving lots of cuddles and toys to keep their minds active. This really helps when they are just stuck in a room bored waiting for their owners. This sets me apart from others because not only do I have personal experience, I experienced it on a professional level that I know how to handle things efficiently. Every day I start with feeding my dog and cat then some playtime mid day with the cat because the dog is quite old now. Then I end the day with a second meal for them and cleaning up the litter box and the pee matt for the senior dog I have to do the most care with my dog since he has dry eyes so it is a daily repetitive task of giving him his eye medication.

“Rachel went way, way above and beyond caring for my sick dog! We're so lucky to have had her help, and I ended up rebooking before the first booking ended.”

About: Before I walk your dog or hang with your cat, there are three things you should know about me. I love being outside, being with animals, and making and performing music. It's incredibly rewarding to me to care for animals. I believe me and your dog or cat share the same curiosity for adventure and I can't wait to get to know them. There's also a good chance that I end up singing some of my music to them. I grew up with pets and have experience in dog and cat sitting for neighbors and friends. When it comes to your pets, my first priority is their safety. I am extremely timely, and adaptable to all sorts of dogs and cats. Consider letting me care for, explore with, and sing to your animals! Currently working part-time, so a lot of availability, especially if you give lots of advance notice! I can be flexible with timing for walks and drop-ins. I don't have space for dogs or cats in my current home, as I'm living with my wife in someone else's area that does not allow pets. But, I'm happy to help take care of your animal in your home by maintaining a safe and clean environment for them, and making sure they are well-fed and exercised.

“Ann has been walking Hank for the past month. She has been so dependable and conscientious. Hank is sweet but he can be obstinate about walking. Ann has gone above and beyond to work with him and help him trust her. Hank loves her!”

“My pups, Rex and Bex, have been walking with David every week for a year. On the days that they know he’s coming, they can’t contain their excitement and sit at the window waiting for him! He is a reliable and caring dog walker for my energetic labs.”

Risa K.

“This was our first booking with Joe and it went great!! He and our pup got along very well He was knowledgeable and experienced. I will definitely schedule more walks with him!”

About: Family, neighbors, and friends have trusted me to watch their dogs while on various vacations. Whether it be stopping in to feed them and take them on a quick walk, or staying the night and cuddling with the pet, I do it all! I’m in school and working, but love dogs and cats and would adore doing this in the free time I have. Cannot wait to meet you all! I will make sure your pets are safe and sound in their environment that they love. Whatever they need I will make come true, as I believe your best friends deserve the world!

About: I have had cats and dogs and been a part of their care for my entire life. I currently have three cats of my own who I care for. One is on a special diet and has previously needed medication given via pill and syringe form, so I have experience in these areas. I have done drop in cat sitting and dog sitting for family previously. I am currently a graduate student at Chatham University. I am available every day to do drop in visits. As I am a student and my schedule can be different day to day, timing each day is best discussed case by case! I will follow directions provided by the client and be flexible to things that come up in the moment. I will always make sure the pets are in a safe location and that areas are appropriate for them to go into before allowing them to move freely (doors and gates shut and locked as needed). I will make sure that I do a final check of the home before leaving to make sure there is no risk of the pet accessing something they should not or having the ability to exit the home.
