Dog Walkers in Jefferson Hills, PA

About: I have had many years of experience caring for dogs. I’ve always had dogs in my family since I was younger from my parents owning them to grandparents! Breeds and sizes ranging from Rottweilers, Border-collies, to doodles! Whenever I turned 18, moved out to be on my own I got my own pup named Daisy! She has been with me for 7 years now! I do have experience with puppies to senior dogs requiring more attention and/or medication. Whether it’s walks, feedings, cuddles, or keeping routines consistent, I treat every pet like family. I love nothing more than being around animals! I do work full-time Monday to Friday 8-4. I am always off weekend and holidays. My schedule can be really flexible in between those hours including working from home some days. As long as I’m available and can make it work I can be available most days throughout the week. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I will follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This will allow me to keep the pets comfortable and stress-free. In my home, my pet is in a very cozy and safe environment with her own routine. I make sure to give my pup plenty attention, exercise, and cuddles!

“Lillian is a champ. Lady (our spoiled English Setter) was being moody and not herself. Lillian did what she could. We had forgotten about a community race in our neighborhood with the streets blocked off. She managed to navigate around the race to take care of Lady. We deeply appreciate her efforts and would rebook Lillian.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs cats and rodents since seventh grade. My first period frequent pet sitting job was a pitbull name bonsai for over a year until I had to move. Love all animals all sizes. I can walk big dogs just fine! I also had a pet bunny before so I know how to care for one. I have plenty of time while doing online school. Love to walk/play with cats/dogs/rodents. I can during Wed-Sun every week. This is a good schedule for college. I have a pet cat at my place with me and I feed her twice a day and sometimes give her treats. I play with her every single day and I also give her baths because she enjoys them at least once a week. I am also willing to wash an animal if needed.

About: I’ve watched dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I’ve been a pet owner most of my life. I have watched all ages, sizes, and breeds. Since I’m a freelancer, my schedule is extremely flexible. Here to help! Work with big and small dogs and old and young dogs regularly. Let me know ahead of time if you have any special instructions for your pets. Whether it’s a specific dietary restriction or a medication, it’s important I know what I’m getting into before I accept a gig. Open to staying at people’s houses for extended periods if needed. My schedule is flexible due to my freelancer life. I can set routines with your pets if needed. I’m great at following instructions and will make sure to communicate with you updates. Whatever you need, I got you covered. I’ll visit your home and follow whatever routine you provide me for your fur baby. If dogs are allowed to go on adventures, I like taking them to dog parks or petco for a treat. It’s important to make sure your pet is exercised, fed, and ready to nap so when you come home your pup or kitty will be happy to see you.

About: I truly have unlimited patience for all pets and especially dogs. I love interacting with them and truly making them feel special and appreciated. Getting some daily exercise is crucial not only for their physical health but also equally as important, their mental health! I currently have my own small business that has allowed me a lot of downtime during the late morning and into the early afternoon on weekdays. I would love to fill this free time by taking care of your beloved pets! Dogs will be fully leashed before leaving the home for their walk. Doors will be double checked before leaving/entering to check for pets nearby. Your property will be treated as if it were my own during my visit.

About: I've been a dog owner most of my life. Friends & family often rely on me to feed, walk & play with their fur babies. I'm retired so I have plenty of time to devote to the wellbeing of your pet. There is always time for belly rubs & ear scratches. I have a dog friendly house - lounging on the couch is okay and sleeping in my bed is encouraged. Snuggle bunnies are welcome here. Your pet will have full run of the house - I don't use crates unless a crate is part of your pets usual routine. I have a large yard that is NOT fenced. All boarders will have to be walked on a leash. It is important that all pets are leash trained.

“Lexi is wonderful with my Baxter, he took to her right away and has been excited to see her. He is not always a good boy with me walking but he is with her. She is confident with him which is great.”

About: I have my own animals who i absolutely love, I watch my neighbors dog 2 times a week and do feedings and walks. I also watch my friend’s dogs and cats every year for a month. I currently go to college, Mornings during Monday - Thursday are good and anytime after 3 work great with my schedule. On weekends anytime will fit in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that my Dog gets to play in three times a day. we also go on walks in our neighborhood. My dog gets fed two times a day and plenty of cuddles!

About: I have had a dog in my life ever since I was a kid, and have loved and cared for them ever since. Always been like family to me. I will treat your dog the same, I assure you. I have volunteered at shelters in the past, as well as working at a doggie day care and have watched dogs on and off again also. Right now we live with an amazing mutt named Leslie who is 7. Right now I am in between things, so I am open to most days, especially sheltering at home as long as your dog is okay hanging with ours. At our home we have 1 dog, with a fenced in yard and walkable, friendly neighborhood. I will definitely spend as much time as I can with them, and do whatever you need. Like I said, I treat dogs like they're my good friends or family.

About: Not only can I watch your pets, but I can provide grooming, adventures and senior care if needed. I also love to send pictures and videos along with any updates to let the owner to ensure their pet is having a great time. I work part time normally 3-4 days a week with limited hours in a day, so I can provide lots of fun and attention for your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard, but do have an electric fence as that could be an option for a dog who understands invisible fences. I also utilize a runner and can always take them out on leash. I have a large yard with a big neighborhood that’s not on a main highway. I have a dog basket in my car in case we needed to take any car rides. I also have camera set up in the house so I can always check on the fur babies for the few hours. I do work in the day.

About: I have been a constant provider of belly rubs, ear scritches, cuddles, and food and a strong-stomached cleaner-upper of any number of unholy messes for nearly all my life. From the first hermit crab (named Speedy for obvious reasons) my dad let me have, to the finches and fishes, the budgies and hamsters, the dogs who I can't live without, and the cats who think I'm okay but undeniably love my wife more, I'm a quintessential lover of animals with room in my heart for more. I'll care for your furred, finned, and feathered family members just as I care for my own. I'm self-employed as a wedding officiant, so my weekdays tend to be free. Weekends vary, but I can set my schedule to work around most of your pet needs. I'm an Operation Iraqi Freedom vet with secret clearances. I'll ensure that your home and pet are as safe as possible. I may also be able to host small dogs in my home. My pup, Kevin, would love a playmate.

“George G. did a great job, taking our dog on extensive walks every day. He handled our untrained puppy very well and from the picture that was sent showed a happy puppy!”

About: I have cared for both my family pets and some friends' cats and dogs since I was a child. Since 2021, I have been the pharmacy assistant at Jefferson Veterinary Hospital, giving me experience in medication administration and general animal care. I have experience in training puppies and dogs through summer camps spent at the Penn Vet Working Dog Center in Philadelphia. Overall, I feel equipped to handle a wide variety of cats and dogs, no matter the demeanor or age. I work part-time, so I can make any walks or home visits fit into my schedule when it works best for you. I am currently unable to board any animals. I am more than capable of taking care of your fur babies because of my work experience. I am kind, gentle, and compassionate to all animals. I can trim nails, go on walks, administer medications, and scoop cat litter.

About: I have been around dogs since I was a baby. My current dogs have PTSD, meaning I understand how to handle special needs pets. I would love to care for your pets. I have no job, meaning I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. Even though i’m unable to keep them at my own house, I am fully willing to watch them at yours. My own pets don’t particularly enjoy visitors. My two dogs have post traumatic stress disorder. They came from a bad place, and ever since I adopted them, I have been rehabilitating them. Many pets take patience and love to come out of their shells. Years later, my dogs are feeling a lot better, even if they’re still scared of loud noises.

About: I’ve always grown up around animals. I’ve had parrots, guinea pigs, dogs, cats. My parents currently have 2 Dogs: Leia who is a Shitzu/ Corgi mix and Minnie who is a terrier. A parrot named Polly. And a kitten named Simba. I was a nanny for 5 years where I took care of 3 children as well as 2 dogs who I would take on walks daily and I would take care of. When the family I babysat for would go on vacation, I would watch the dogs overnight. Feed them, walk them, bathe them, groom them, give them all the attention that they needed. I can handle big dogs or small dogs. I love all types of dogs and I’m very flexible with hours.

About: I have had the pleasure of pet sitting for family and friends for 10+ years! The pets I have watched over have included fish, cats, and dogs. My experience with dogs includes different breeds, sizes and ages (including a senior sweetheart). I currently work a part-time job while completing my courses. I am available on most days and evenings at any time and am willing to work around pet owner needs! I am able to follow any directions provided by the pet owner in relation to sitting, drop-ins and walking. Some tasks that I can complete include crating, feeding, refreshing water, letting pets out for bathroom breaks, monitoring, walking, etc. My 3 girls are the most important part of my life. They are more than pets to me and I know how important it is to have a caring person watch over them when you can’t be there. Your pet will be treated with the love, care, and respect that I would expect my own to receive!

About: I have been petsitting since I was in 7th grade (for walkable neighbors until I could drive!). I have experience taking care of and giving medication to young and old dogs and cats (pills and ear/eyedrops). I’ve walked the most stubborn senior dogs and the most rambunctious young dogs. I have an especially good way with cats but I’ve mostly sat dogs in the past, so I have plenty of experience with both. And while I hope I don’t need to demonstrate this skill petsitting for you, I have done quite a few (successful!) flea baths on kittens, cats, and dogs. I’m a vegetarian of 5 years and animals have always been my favorite thing about life. I am on summer break from college until the last week of August and I only work Mon-Fri from 8am-12pm, so I have almost my entire day and weekends to spend time petsitting. I am able to come by your house however many times a day you see fit, and I always love to just hang out with your pets for a little while to keep them company while you are gone! I am willing to do walks, baths, or just chill out depending on what your pet and your schedule is usually like. Since my other job is done so early in the day, I am able to stop by as often as you’d like.
