Dog Walking Kearny

About: I’m big on personalized, one-on-one care and giving each pet the attention they deserve. I’m very attentive, detail-oriented, and observant of body language, so I try to understand each pet’s comfort level, energy, and routine rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. As a dog owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Because my work is contract-based, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the week for pet care. I love animals, and as a dog parent myself, I’ve kept my availability open during times I know are especially helpful for other pet parents. I’ve built walks and drop-in visits into my routine and like to keep my schedule manageable so I can be reliable, attentive, and fully present with each pet. I know how important trust is when someone is coming into your home and caring for your pet. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to instructions, and very mindful of a pet’s body language and comfort level. I aim to provide thoughtful, reliable care so your pet feels safe and well looked after in their familiar environment. Happy to offer a free meet and greet beforehand so you and your pet can feel comfortable and see if it’s a good fit.

“Daniel is wonderful with our 2 shy and sensitive pit mixes. He’s so patient, kind and detail-oriented, we’re so glad to have his help and support! He’s also great at communication and punctuality!”

“Nima did a fantastic job walking our Oli and I highly recommend her. She is punctual, professional, and extremely loving to all of our pets! Nima was also flexible with scheduling and willing to accommodate our (Oli’s) needs when we needed to modify the booking. She was also extremely patient when our Oli was being stubborn on walks or potty breaks, which we greatly appreciated, especially the photos of their walks when he was serving serious diva face! 😂 We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future and cannot recommend her enough!”

“Kara is amazing! She’s punctual and a great commuter and so good to our boy Hulk! She was gentle with him after recovering from his neuter and always makes sure he has water before she leaves. Highly recommend!”

About: I feel as though i have an ability to communicate with animals in ways I cannot communicate with humans. I believe all dogs are gifts from god and we are fortunate to experience their unconditional love. I currently work from home, which allows for a very open schedule, and affords me a lot of freedom when necessary. I can also adapt my current situation to make special accommodations. we have a fenced in yard, I also have a county park located at the end of my street, which also has several dog parks included within it.

“Madison always responded quickly and was extremely responsible. She provided detailed updates after every walk and was very attentive, asking key questions to make sure she understood my dogs’ needs and routines. I felt totally at ease leaving them in her care and would happily book with her again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and understand that every pet has unique needs at every stage of life. I helped care for my family’s West Highland Terrier for nearly 18 years, giving me experience with everything from energetic puppy years to the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I also have experience caring for my parents’ young dog, dogs in my extended family and am comfortable keeping up with playful, active pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that they’re in caring, dependable hands. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have flexible daytime availability for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I teach private music lessons in the late afternoons (typically between 4:00 and 7:00 PM, Monday through Thursday), but I’m happy to work with clients to find times that fit their pets’ needs. Depending on location and scheduling, I may also be able to accommodate visits between lessons. I also have availability on Fridays and weekends, making it easier to provide reliable, consistent care. I believe communication is key and will always do my best to be flexible while ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is helping them feel comfortable by keeping them in their familiar routine. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other preferences you have for your pet’s care. Whether your pet enjoys lots of attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensuring everything is left clean, secure, and just as I found it. After each visit, I’ll send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with two dogs and later cared for two cats of my own, so I understand the patience, attention, and love pets need. Since moving to the U.S., I’ve also helped friends by caring for their pets in my home while they were away. I’m responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel safe and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays for drop offs and walks, and I always make sure pets are fed, exercised, played with, and given lots of affection throughout the day. Im flexible so i can have pets over my place as well as the client place. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and routine are. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jade is an excellent and very caring animal lover who goes above and beyond to make sure our mini poodle, Ruthie is taken care of. She is trustworthy, reliable and kind. We highly recommend her!”

About: Your Pet's Comfort, First. Animals have always found me. Growing up, I shared my home with a Chihuahua, a Shih Tzu, and a Terrier… three very different personalities who taught me early that every pet has their own language. Since then, friends and family have trusted me with their dogs (and an occasional cat), and I've spent time volunteering at shelters, sitting with animals who just needed someone patient and present. What Sets Me Apart? I don't expect pets to perform affection for me. Some dogs and cats gravitate toward me right away; others need space, and that's okay. My focus is on their comfort, not my ego. I'm tuned in to how animals feel, whether that's an older dog who moves a little slower and needs gentler handling, or a young pup with energy to burn. I match my energy to theirs, not the other way around. Specific Skills • Boundary-respecting care: I read body language and let the animal lead; no forcing interaction • Age-aware attention: attuned to the different needs of senior dogs (joint sensitivity, slower pace) versus younger, high-energy ones • Daily energy management: I know how much play and movement different dogs need to feel settled, and I make sure they get it • Health-conscious routines: tick checks, coat condition, appetite and behavior observations; I notice the small stuff • Multi-species experience: comfortable with both dogs and cats, including shelter animals with varied backgrounds I treat the animals in my care like I'd want someone to treat my own: patient, observant, and responsive to what they need that day. I currently work part time so I’m able to be flexible with your pets needs and schedules. I’m available to house visit/ walk during weekdays and overnight on weekends and Mondays. In-Home Care Approach I care for pets in their own space, where they feel safest. No hosting, no unfamiliar territory — just me showing up where they're already comfortable. What That Looks Like • I arrive calm — no rushed energy, no loud entry. I give them time to adjust to my presence before anything else. • I learn their space — where they eat, where they hide, their favorite spot by the window. I work within their routine. • Energy out, safely — walks, play, or backyard time based on what they need that day. Tick checks after outdoor time. • I notice the small shifts — eating habits, energy levels, anything that feels off. You'll hear about it. • I leave their space as I found it — maybe a little furrier, but otherwise intact Why This Matters Some pets do fine in new places. Many don't. Older dogs, anxious cats, rescues with history — they hold their ground best at home. I respect that. My job is to be the steady, familiar presence in their environment :)

“I could see on the camera that Levi immediately loved her! She asked a lot of questions, which I love, to ensure that we were on the same page and overall was just great!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and genuinely enjoy building trust with both animals and their owners. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, as well as basic care for other pets. Currently a teacher will have opening availability come summer time. So my availability will be pretty open to whatever the customer/pet needs are. Can’t wait! I make safety and comfort my top priorities when caring for pets. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions from the owner. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and always supervise interactions to ensure pets are safe at all times. I’m attentive to behavior and body language so I can respond quickly if anything seems off. In a client’s home, I respect their space while maintaining a calm, familiar environment for their pet. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away

“Carlize was wonderful and very playful with Kai! Very prompt, communicative, and always on time when it came to walking Kai! Thank you! Until next time!”

About: Hi! I'm a big dog lover who enjoys being active, spending time outdoors, and going on walks. I've been caring for dogs for over 12 years and have dog-sat for friends and family countless times over the years. I've cared for puppies as young as 3 months old and senior dogs, including my own 18-year-old dog. I'm also a proud aunt to two dogs! My best friend is a veterinarian, so I've picked up a lot of knowledge about dog care and behavior over the years as well. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. ❤️🐾 I have a hybrid work schedule so I’ll be able to fit in your pup needs through out the day when working from home! Maintaining your dogs regular scheduled routine and providing a safe and loving environment are my main priorities! I make sure collars and harnesses are triple checked before walks, keep owners up to date with photos and give your dog my full attention during playtime, walks and care. My goal is to make sure your pup feel just as comfortable, happy and loved while you’re away!🐶
