Dog Walkers in Jefferson, SD

“My dogs absolutely love Macy! She is wonderful to work with and has been incredibly attentive to my dog's anxiety. What sets her apart is how she reads their mood and the weather for the day and adjusts her approach each visit. I always come home to happy and calm dogs on the days she walks them.”

“Maverick loved walking with Sarah! I appreciate the help while we were gone. This is first time using Rover or Sarah and I would definitely ask her to walk him in the future!”

About: I have 2 rescue cats, 1 rescue dog, and a one-eyed puggle. I am currently dog sitting for a small dog until July, the three of us walk daily. I owned a lab who had epilepsy, administered his meds daily. I have provided care for friends and families animals, including dogs, cats, and other outside animals. I currently work away from home every Wednesday. I also have a parttime job where I work from home, with flexible hours. I would be available for services with flexible hours. I have a fenced yard, my dogs get along well with other dogs, and they are friendly with my cats. My rescue dog is skittish around people, but she has not had issues with other dogs or cats. I have given meds to my animals. I have crated my dogs, currently only crate the small dog I am dog sitting for when I leave.

“Accepted me as a new client and walked my two dogs for one hour all in the same day. It was a last minute request. She made the process easy. She sent pictures of the dogs and a map view of the walk they went on. Showed up right on time. Will use again.”

About: I have dog sat, house sat and worked at a doggy daycare for all types of dogs! My parents have three big dogs as well. I am currently a full time student but I will try and be available every afternoon/night. I am also available some mornings and every weekend. I can easily food, water, walk and crate dogs. My Parents have three dogs over 50 lbs. I can also happily cuddle with the fur babies.

About: I was very active on Rover, but then I became very busy with our children’s activities. I am now looking forward to being very available as school comes to a close and summer needs arrive for pet owners. We have two dogs at home, a ten year old mixed beagle breed, Lilly, and a two year old, beagle, Myles. The older one is very calm and easy going. Myles is very feisty and keeps us on our toes. Our daughter showed Lilly in our county fair and she won 1st in her class and reserve champion overall. I look forward to sharing my love of animals with others, whether it is cuddles or quick game of ball during our visit. I work full time, so I would be more available evenings and weekends. I am comfortable doing boarding in other’s homes and drop in visits. I feel welcome visits are important prior, so the animals are able to get to know me and will not be as anxious for the actual visit. I want to hear from clients what their dog’s routine is. I want to keep as much normalcy as I can. I plan to ask very specific questions, so care is as close to the same as when they are being cared for by their owners.

About: I am originally from Sioux Falls, SD and just moved back to the Midwest after just over 8.5 years in California. I grew up with a house full of cats and dogs. I moved to California in 2015 and have been house sitting and checking in on friends and coworkers pets since which includes cats, dogs and reptiles. This includes walking, bathing and feeding and the ages ranged from puppy to full grown. I also nannied for a neighbor during 2020 in lieu of her finding a boarder when she had to go back to working in office. I am super outdoorsy and have taken pets to the river or even kayaking.

I know every pet has it's own needs and love to communicate in order to curate the best experience for your animal. Pet care will vary case by case. I generally meet with the owners as needed and go over expectations and follow any requests or needs outlined. If I have any concerns I work with the owners directly.
