About: Don’t want to go walking in the cold, snow or ice? Happy to step in to give your pup winter exercise. Previously lived in Minnesota: I have the gear, experience, and cold tolerance for below zero dog walking. I work from my Germantown home with my pittie, pittie mix, and brand new baby Rottweller puppy, Fin, Baby Girl, and King Gooch (and husband, who is taking care of our four-legged babes, when I am taking care of yours!). I’m experienced handling dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. Looking forward to giving your dog(s) the same care, affection and attention I give my babies! My 90-pound Pit has been through numerous training programs, even a boot camp. Despite all of my genuine effort, time and money, he is still a strong puller, chases squirrels with blood lust, and will try to attack other dogs. No matter your dogs’ leash aversion, triggers, or stressors, I have tricks up my sleeve to handle it. It won’t bother me and no judgement! I work a corporate schedule (M-F, 9-5) from home. Weekdays, I take breaks throughout the day and accommodate dog walks during breaks and after work. Walks in your neighborhood can be routed to any specifications you have. During inclement weather, quick potty breaks can be paired with inside play time.
12. Emilia M.
“Emilia is great with my dog Bucky...I have reviewed her already recently, but just wanted to add, that she has been very helpful, going out of her way, especially when Bucky injured his paw ( bee sting) she took the time to help me determine what the issue was and helped with taking care of it. As I'm disabled it's hard for me to always be able to tell exactly what's going on, and she got right down on the floor and helped find what was sore and helped clean it and put some meds on it, helping it heal quickly. When his sore paw made him extra clingy and not wanting to go far from me, she tightly judged what he needed and brought him back home. He is doing much better due to her help. We appreciate her!”
13. Jill P.
“Jill has watched my two kitties for me multiple times and I’ve always felt so comfortable with it. She’s friendly and loves pets. I would recommend her to anyone!”
14. Racheal F.
About: I’m a highly organized and reliable pet sitter with a passion for animal care. Adept at providing quality care to a variety of animals in a safe and nurturing environment. I currently have a 10 year old cat and a 8 month old dachshund puppy at home. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule. Please contact me so we can create a schedule that will work to provide the care that you need. This will depend on the type of service you require. Currently I’m open to drop-ins and walks, so let me know what you think is best for your pet.
15. Brooklynn C.
“Brooklynn has had a plethora of management jobs that have created her extended and unique skill set. She is incredibly efficient with time-management, can prioritize and execute tasks in the correct fashion, and always leaves every position functioning (and looking!) ten times better. She is the epitome of responsible, and combining her work background with her personal gentle disposition creates the perfect caregiver. Brooklynn’s work ethic is unmatched, and her loving personality makes her one of the most caring people I have ever met. When you meet her, you’ll notice a ring on her hand that says “Sasha,” a tribute to her own pet that she loves and misses dearly. I can guarantee your pet is in the best and most capable hands when they are with Brooklynn.”
16. Aden S.
“Aden has house sat for me multiple times and cared for my sweet Goldendoodle, Raven. He cares for her as if she is his. Aden has always been repectful of my home, and never leaves a mess. He would be perfect for this job.”
17. Elizabeth M.
“Liz really has a gift with animals. Even unruly dogs seem more attentive to her. She stays with my dog when I go on vacation every year and he's almost as excited to see her at the door as he is to see me when I come home!”
18. Jon O.
“Jonathan took care of our dog Molly and also our house while we were on vacation. He came to our house prior to us leaving and went through everything we expected prior to the first day. He asked pertinent questions and was intentional about understanding our wishes and making sure Molly was taken care of as we wanted. He even texted us as to her welfare while we were gone. I can recommend him to other pet owners who want someone who takes the welfare of their pets personal and communication with the owners as part of his process.”
19. Kegan S.
“He’s awesome!! He’s the only person I’d let walk shi, she don’t like many people but absolutely loves him. His energy is great!”
20. Luis G.
“Luis is a very caring and thoughtful pet sitter. In the time I have known him he has worked with many different kinds of pets and has shown great compassion for each and every one of them. It is easy to say that Luis is a very responsible pet owner and treats others pets as his own.”
