Dog Walking in Kalamazoo

“I had a great experience with Jaime! She was quick to respond and worked with me to find a time that suited both our schedules. She arrived on time, was incredibly sweet with my dog, and really took the time to connect with her. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure all of her needs were met. I would definitely recommend her and will continue to use her services moving forward!”

“Jess was great! Always communicated with me and gave good notes so I was aware of everything that happened during the visit. I knew my baby was in good hands. I would recommend to anyone and love to book her again!”

“Hunter was great with Dot. Very patient and loving. With no fault of his… the snow storm prevented him from doing his walk visit on the 5th. However, We will have and look forward to using Hunter again. Very happy with his communication and commitment.”

About: What sets me apart is the love and real-life experience I have from caring for my own two dogs every day. I truly understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and compassionate watching over your pet. I treat every dog and cat like family—making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved, just like at home. I work part-time from home, so I’m home a lot and have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. That means I can give your pet consistent attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Pet care naturally fits into my routine since I’m already spending lots of time with my own two dogs! I’m super flexible and happy to follow whatever routine works best for your pet! Whether it’s in my home or yours, I’ll stick to their feeding schedule, walk times, play routines, and any special instructions you have. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved—just like they would with you.

“Lynn is wonderful with our dogs! We are so grateful for the weekly walks. She gives great feedback and is very flexible. So glad we found her!”

“Sometimes luck is on your side. We chose Cara at random from possible Rover dog walkers, and it turns out she is a dream come true! Punctual, flexible, kind, funny, and smart, she has turned out to be exactly the right person for our needs and preferences. Pivo goes nuts with excitement when he sees her coming. He performs zoomies on walks, and even though she says he's tired out, will do them when he's back. We love her! Yay, Cara! Awesome job!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. I used to watch my friends and neighbors dogs when they would go out of town, making sure they get out to use the bathroom and get exercise as well as feed them and take them out for walks. I can administer basic first aid if it’s needed, and am comfortable with giving medicine if they require it. I currently do free lance work from my home, working on my own time as I wish to. I can do morning to to early evening pet care bookings ( 9AM - 5PM) during week days( M - Fr) with availability most the time on weekends unless stated otherwise. Accommodations can be made if they are discussed before bookings are made. I can crate dogs if necessary for any reason, and can take them out to play as well. I have a relatively large house where my pets are free to walk around without worry, none of the pets are stressed and are always relaxing in various areas of the house. Former dogs I have watched and cared for have always enjoyed my company, and never have issue with me.

“Dean was amazing! I needed someone last minute and he accommodated for my request. Great communicator and my puppy enjoyed their interactions. Will definitely book again!”

About: My family and I have just moved to the Kalamazoo area from Tampa, FL, where I worked as a full-time veterinary assistant for several years. Additionally, I have accumulated hundreds of hours volunteering at animal shelters. Between these two, I have developed skills that allow me to be comfortable caring for all kinds of animals, and allow me to help those with specific needs, such as medication/fluid administration, first-aid, aggression/anxiousness, puppy/senior care, etc. Feel free to reach out with any questions! :) I am currently working part-time as a vet assistant. I have wide-open availability Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, and I'm available Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays after 5pm. Long walks, extra love, and positive "good boys/girls" all around. It's important to me to be patient and understanding with any animal, and really listen to what it is that they need. I have no issue interacting with animals who may be reactive, anxious, aggressive, or all of the above.

“Barb is amazing!!! Every time she gets home, Lola gets super excited because she knows is time for her walk! Barb is sweet and very kind with my baby!! 100% recommended!!”

About: Hi, my name is Amara. I am a pet lover and all my life I've had cats and dogs growing up and love them all. I am taking a gap year to work so I have all the time in the world to help care for your pet. I love going on long walks and I bet your dog does too. As I don't have School and my other job is once a week every Tuesday for 4-5 hours in the morning, I have plenty of time to help care for pets. With my dog, I feed him and take him for walks. I clean up after him and teach him tricks and bathe him. With my cats I always feed them and cleaned their litter boxes, and well when they gave birth I watched the babys when mama need a break.

About: I’ve had several years of experience with pets of all different kinds. I used to work for a professional pet sitting company, a dog day care, and currently work at a vet clinic. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, shy dogs, and hyperarousal behavior. I am currently working full time at a local veterinary clinic, and I am pet sitting part time on my days off! I am available on Friday's, some Tuesday's, and some weekends. I do not offer services in my own home as I have two dogs of my own, however I do drop in visits/walks at your home!

About: I've been a professional petsitter for almost a decade, providing services such as dogwalking, small and exotic animal care, farm animal care, and medication and health care assistance. I am currently available for daily dog walks and drop in pet care Monday-Friday. I prefer to work early morning through 3pm but can be available for occasional evening visits as well. I offer dog walks, and petsitting in your home. I offer a range of lengths for dog walks and visits, starting with 30 minutes up to 1.5 hours.

About: I've loved animals my whole life. I have a lizard which I love dearly, and I grew up with a variety of family pets but I haven’t had a chance to get one on my own. I volunteer to watch my friends and families pets for multiple years, just starting to do it professionally! I hope to utilize this opportunity to get my animal fix while incorporating some exercise! I have experience with senior cats, dogs, including dogs with behavioral issues, as well as lizards, hamsters and the occasional bird or fish. I work another full time job that is a fixed schedule Monday through Friday, so l am capable of working regular hours for your and your pets! This will be a top priority and I am so excited to care for your pet and meet new animal lovers! I have house-sit for multiple friends and family members and I make sure to leave the house as I found it and make sure to abide and respect any house rules!

About: Hi I’m Brody, and I am 18 years old. I have two wonderful French bulldogs and a German Shepherd myself, so I’m not a stranger of taking care of dogs. I have built very strong connections with all of them, as I’m looking for with your dog as well. I give them walks very often so I’m well aware of what a dog likes and does during a walk. I guarantee your dog will have a joyful experience. I am working full-time during the summer. I might be booked up with other appointments, but I’m still pretty flexible with times and can move things around, so it can fit with your needs. I always wash my hands in between appointment so I don’t carry over any triggers that might alarm your dog and keep your dog clean and safe. At home, I always look to give my dogs attention and play with them in my yard for good exercise. If there is any specific instructions that you want for your dog's best experience, I would be happy to do so.

“Kristen was a great walker! She accommodated a last-minute time shift, she showed up right on time, and took our pup for a good walk. We'll definitely hire her again!”

About: Hello! I am a college student at MSU with a lifelong love for animals—reliable, caring, and experienced with pets of all ages, including senior care! I am free in the mornings and afternoons during weekdays so I will be able to care for any pets during those times. I am almost always free all day during weekends! Communication of schedules is very important and helpful to me! I have a fenced and big back yard and it is me and my mom so the pet will have a whole yard and house to themselves. If I am walking or sitting the pet I will walk them for as long as needed and make sure the little fur balls needs are met!

“This is the second time I have had Kathryn take care of my dog. Last time was overnight at my house and this time was just a drop-in walk. She is professional, ontime, great update and my dog loves her. Excellent overall and I will be asking her to take care of my dog anytime I need help.”
