Dog Walking Indian Head Park

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for a French Bulldog, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding, and just keeping them happy and comfortable. I really enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away. I am home full time so my schedule is pretty flexible, I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what you need. I also can accept last minute availability! I can work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and play time. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and at home, whether I’m in your space or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe and relaxed. I’ll stick to your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and anything specific your pet needs. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve.

“John was wonderful with both our dogs! He was on time, got to know them first, and won them over very quickly. Even our older dog who is very skittish took to John immediately for a walk this week. Would highly recommend!”

Kate R.

“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

“Cheyenne is great with the dogs, she takes great care of them and she’s very attentive. I know my dogs love it when she walks them. I really recommend her to everyone.”

“Morgan and John were lifesavers taking our chompy little puppy for a nice long walk to burn some energy in the middle of the day when we had to return back to work full time. We’ll definitely be using them again!”

About: I am an incoming vet student and have worked and surrounded myself with animals my whole life. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, worked with vets, and was a dog handler and a doggie daycare over the past few summer years. I have experience with cat, dogs, fish, rodents, reptiles, and more. I love hiking and spending time outside as well, so hikes with dogs are more than welcome! I currently am only working an internship three days a week, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry, scaly or slimy friends! I also don’t work weekends at all so my availability if wide open! When working with animals in they’re own homes, I think it’s important to understand you’re coming into their space and to work slowly to earn their trust!

“Ann was able to walk our dog at the last minute and even came very early in the morning to meet him prior to the walk. Pippen loved her! We’ll definitely use her again.”

“Dolla was excited to see Angela the moment she saw her and I knew it would be a good fit for us. Angela is nice and has a pleasant demeanor and I will work with her again”

Chelle M.

“Kelsey was great and very responsive! I look forward to using her over and over again. She always keeps me updated and takes lots of pics. I enjoy reading Bear’s report card after her visit and I trust that he is in great hands when I am away. Would recommend 100%.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. When I was 18 I got my own dog for the first time. Since then I’ve moved into my own house and got another dog and 2 cats. Over the last 7years I’ve had friends and family rely on me to walk and feed their pets while they were not home. I’m a very big animal lover and would love to be able to do the same for your pet! I’m currently working midnights as a community service officer part time so I’ll have plenty of time throughout the day to walk your pets, do drop on visits, and have your dog over for doggy day care . I’m available to walk your dog or have your dog over for doggy care any day after 9 AM except Saturdays. I’m very flexible with my schedule. Before walking your dog I’ll make sure the leash and harness are completely secured to ensure your dog does not get loose. Your dog will not be off leash at anytime to ensure your dog does not run away. If it is hot I will make sure to check if the pavement is to hot for your dogs paws. If you allow your dog to have treats, I can bring healthy treats to reward your dog for good walking behavior. You’re dog will be treated how I would want someone to treat my dog while walking them. If your dog is coming over to enjoy doggy daycare they will start off with a little walk and then we will spend some time playing fetch and running around in the house and outside. I have a French bulldog who is very playful and would love to spend some time with your fur ball! If you bring food for your dog your dog will be fed on time at the time you prefer. Your dog will also be given treats (if you allow it) and will have a fun time! We will also go to a near by dog park (if weather permits and if you allow it). I also have plenty of couches and dog beds for your fur baby if he or she desires a nap!

“Such a gem! She went above and beyond, can’t wait to rebook”

About: I've grown up with dogs all of my life. From puppies to seniors, small and big, I've taken care of them all. I've taken care of my dogs after surgeries and kept them comfortable and assisted them getting around safely. I have completed dog training classes with dogs and have taught them tricks! I have a huge place in my heart for all dogs and will take care of your dogs like they're my own! I am currently a stay at home mom with our 5 year old son. I would be available to take care of your dog(s) throughout the day. Israel, Jaxson and I live in a house with a fenced in yard with our 9 year old dog Sophie, a Wheaten Terrier. We love meeting new dogs and enjoy seeing our dog friends return for another visit! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions! I am a Stay At Home Mom with a 5 year old son and our dog, so I am available throughout the day to take care of any new dog friends. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company and stay active. We have gates we can put up while dogs eat to keep them separated and safe.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with big dogs, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds, energetic personalities, and dogs that need structure, exercise, and attention. Back home, I regularly dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique quirks and routines. I’ve also lived with cats, so I understand their personalities too — from playful and social to independent and observant. I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, which gave me valuable hands-on experience with animal handling, administering medications, and recognizing when something might be off. I currently volunteer at the Bloomington Animal Shelter and have experience as a wildlife rehabilitator, both of which have made me especially patient, attentive, and calm in all kinds of situations. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a steady, reassuring presence, I’m happy to provide safe, reliable, and loving care! My availability is: • Monday: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM, 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Tuesday: 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Wednesday: 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Friday: 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM • Saturday: 8:30 AM – 2:00 PM • Sunday: 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM I currently do not have any pets in my home, which allows me to provide a calm, low-stress environment and give your pet my full attention. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and safe, with plenty of space for a crate if needed, as well as room for pets to comfortably explore and relax. I also have convenient access to multiple dog parks and safe walking areas, making it easy to provide exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of routines, instructions, and household preferences. I aim to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule, whether that involves walks, feeding, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship. My priority is always creating a safe, secure, and stress-free experience for both pets and owners.

“Sam never fails to go above and beyond with her care. She gives long walks and even takes extra time to sit and give pets and love afterwards (and even checks food and water, how nice!) Our dogs absolutely adore her and she's always so helpful and gives us such peace of mind that our lil pups are in the best of hands. We honestly feel so lucky to have found such a reliable and trustworthy walker to keep our dogs happy while we're away!”

Jamie B.

“Franklin is so very excited for Sarah to show up! He loves his walks and playtime with her!”

Steffanie W.

“Truly the best! Ken has been working with my high energy, rambunctious pitbull mix every week for walks. He is so patient with our baby, and treats him like family. He even spends a little extra time with Kida after his walks to play with him! From the first moment I met Ken, I could tell that he is very passionate with what he does and has a lot of experience working with all sorts of dogs. He is also great with communication and gives me pictures/videos/updates after each walk. Kida blessed to have a friend like Ken around!”

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm usually out of the house between 9:30pm and 2am Monday through Friday. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am available on most weekends and holidays. I only book one client at a time for pet sits and boarding, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a huge, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment.
