Dog Walkers in Indian River, MI

About: I have had pets and cared for pets my entire life I have spent majority of my adult life in animal welfare such as vet clinics, rescues, boarding and daycare facilities. I have experience caring for animals of all ages and sizes such as cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, birds, and some live stock. I also have experience with medications, behavioral issues, age and other restrictions. I currently in the off season of my job and I have a very flexible schedule at this moment in time. I can also take last minute bookings. Your pet will have any thing he or she will possibly desire with me. I’m an active person and love to go out for walks but also like a good snuggle on the couch.

About: I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years of all shapes and sizes. Up to 5 animals at one time in the past. Im home because my father died and my mother needed help here. Finding a new corporate job has been tough in this area, so this is a way for me to heal and keep my bills paid. If the job is more than 30 miles from my home, I will add on mileage for meet and greet and for the stay, as I have taken losses on that in the past when I didn't. I recently returned to Northern Michigan after the passing of my father to help my mother. Had to leave corporate job and looking for a happier pace of life and to give back to animals, who saved my life during a difficult time. I love walks and live right by the bike trails and near several parks. I also love cuddling on the couch and allow animals on the furniture if they're allowed to in their home. I would treat them like my own and follow any and all rules/restrictions to the letter. I always want to meet the pet and the family beforehand so everyone feels comfortable. I'm an open book and just like helping people. Ask any and all questions needed please!

About: I have a nurturing personality which makes it pretty easy to be a care taker, and I really enjoy this part of being able to help others. Pet care actually works out really well with my schedule/full-time job schedule as I work from home and I go into office working in a hybrid environment. The long story short-- my schedule is very flexible allowing me to watch/keep your furry friend safe. When I home stay, as I have in the past, I treat the property, items, pets and home with the utmost respect as if it were my own and leave things exactly how they were. I prioritize a clean space for myself and intend to do so for you, so when you return home it's not an absolute mess. It's very important to me that you are able to trust that I do right by your rules/policies of the home, as I understand it can be a bit daunting to trust someone with your special buddy or living space, whatever the case may be. My goal is for you to feel worry free while you're away and rest assured client trust is something I take very seriously!

“We highly recommend Marissa even though we haven’t met. She was very communicative and sent photos. Thanks so much for the care of our fur babies!”

About: I’ve always had a pet in my home, either cat or dog. They feed my spirit and are the best to show love and companionship. Side job while traveling as a nurse and I would be happy to care for your fur baby. I’m currently open to helping take care of your fur babies. My schedule is free and I’m hoping to help people in my area with the care of their pets. I love to show pets affection with toys and belly rubs. Leave a list of how you’d like me to service your pet and I’d be happy to follow it.

About: I’m excited to care for your furry family member as if they were mine. At home I have a fenced in backyard, doggy gates inside to let animals have an open space of three rooms while I’m at work or running errands. My husband and I have our own fur children as well; a cat and two golden retrievers. I take my own dogs for walks both on and off leash (on wooded trails) about every other day. I have grown up with many pets as my parents let us have any pets we wanted as kids. I am pretty good at training dogs due to having so many throughout my life. I’ve trained our own dogs myself. In my spare time I enjoy adventuring in the outdoors. I have experience in the past volunteering at an animal shelter where I walked dogs and took care of cats. Feel free to contact me with questions. Looking forward to caring for your fur babies. Most of the time I’m available for long weekends (Friday to Monday) to help care for your dogs needs or in the evenings during the week. We have a fenced in backyard to help keep your pets safe at our home. We also have doggie gates built into our house that allows them freedom of a large space. No problem separating dogs when we leave for work etc, as we have plenty of extra space.

About: I’ve had family pets for as long as I can remember. I am very comfortable with all types of animals! I also worked at pets mart for a year where I ran doggy day camp! I am currently a part time student. So I am available most days of the week. Mornings and afternoons work great for me! But very flexible with my schedule. I have a fenced in yard for my dogs. I also walk them on leashes and occasionally crate train if necessary. I will do whatever it takes to make sure your pet is safe and comfy.
