Dog Walking Kew Gardens

About: I’ve been a dog mom for more than 15 years of my life. I have a small senior dog who gets along with everyone. We love having other dogs hang out with us. I’m very active and enjoy taking dogs for all kind of fun walks. I currently work from home 3 days a week and spend lots of weekends at home taking care of my senior dog. I am the go to person with all my friends and family when it comes to pet care. My senior dog spends much of his time in a giant play pen sleeping in our apartment. We still make it out for 3 walks a day. My apartment is very pet friendly.

“Laura was able to help us with walking our Lita on short notice this past week and I can’t recommend her enough!! Kind, communicative, very much loves dogs :) and asked all the right questions. And Lita loved her!”

“What I’ve been searching for!!! Literally so sweet, knowledgeable about caring for dogs (bio hazards, safety and anxiety) she just gets it!! I’m glad Kobe and I found this hidden gem. I know he is truly in good hands, safe and happy. I trust her judgment and I don’t let anyone watch my dog but she’s the truth!”

About: The first dog that I fell in love with was Charlie, my best friend’s beagle. I cared for him for weeks at a time, and that’s when I realized how much I enjoy looking after dogs. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for several pets, both on and off the books, and each experience has made me love it even more. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I have a deep respect and appreciation for them. I understand the dedication, planning, and responsibility that goes into making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. As much as we wish we could bring our pets everywhere, sometimes the best choice is leaving them in a place where they feel at home. That’s the experience I aim to provide: reliable and thoughtful care that supports your pet’s comfort without requiring you to sacrifice your plans. I am currently unemployed and I live with my parents (who also love dogs), so there’s almost always someone home. I was working at Central Park for these last few months, but now that the season is over I can dedicate myself to working my dream job… along with finding a career that goes with my degree. I’ve cared for dogs both in my own home and in clients’ homes. Our quiet neighborhood has plenty of small parks and green spaces for quick walks or a good 30–35 minute wander. I also have a ground-floor apartment with a fenced backyard where dogs can roam, zoom, or take care of their business when a full walk isn’t ideal. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow whatever routine works best for their dog. I can stay overnight or visit in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and light grooming. My priority is keeping each dog comfortable by sticking to the routine they know.

About: Lifelong Experience & Special Needs Expertise I have been around dogs most of my life and have personally cared for two dogs over the past 20 years. Both of my long-term companions developed chronic health conditions, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs. ​Medication Administration: I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering oral medications safely and calmly. ​Breeds & Sizes: While I have a lot of personal experience with smaller dogs, I am completely comfortable and confident handling larger breeds as well. ​Brachycephalic/Short-Nose Breeds: I understand the unique health requirements of short-nosed breeds, particularly regarding proper heat management, exercise limits, and respiration monitoring. Because I work full-time in education with a daily commute, my regular schedule is focused on providing top-tier care during off-hours: Evenings & Weekends: Available for regular walks, drop-ins, and dinner feedings. Holidays & School Breaks: Expanded, flexible availability throughout the day. Services & What to Expect 30-Minute Dog Walks: Every walk is tailored to your dog's pace and energy level. Before and after our stroll, I take extra time to play with their favorite toys, shower them with attention, and let them settle in comfortably. Drop-In Visits: Perfect for checking in, play sessions, potties, and companionship while you’re away. Attentive Care & Feeding: I am happy to handle scheduled feedings and fresh water refills during any visit upon request. Wellness Checks: During every visit, I conduct a quick overall wellness check to ensure your dog appears happy, healthy, and showing no signs of discomfort or physical issues.

“Ocho loves Thoselin! She’s been very conscientious and reliable, and I trust her in my home and with my baby. Ocho can be anxious and hard to get outside, but she’s been flexible and, judging by the photos she sends, he has a great time with her!”

About: I provide dependable, loving care for dogs of all sizes and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight care, I make sure your dog stays safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine, and I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I follow each pet’s normal routine by providing fresh food and water, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. In both my home and my client’s home, I keep the environment clean, follow any special care instructions, and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect.

“I was away on vacation for 15 days. Melanie made every day stress free when it came to my Siberian husky. Blanco really enjoyed expecting her every day for walks and treats and he loves the little training she does with him too! Blanco and my cats fight for her attention all the time. <3 Although Blanco makes a mess on occasion Melanie is always happy to help out with that, which I really appreciate. As always, I am super grateful for you Melanie!!”

About: I am a passionate and devoted animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I grew up raising and lovingly caring for 4 German Shepherds and 1 Collie, which gave me complete confidence in handling large, strong breeds. Additionally, I have extensive experience caring for and breeding Jack Russell Terriers, making me well-versed in managing energetic, active dogs. Whether your dog is a big gentle giant or a small high-energy pup, I ensure they receive safe walks, attentive feeding, interactive playtime, and lots of love. I always carefully follow all owner instructions and send frequent photo updates so you have complete peace of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I manage my schedule to ensure that pets in my care receive frequent attention, regular potty breaks, timely feeding, and engaging daily walks. Because my routine is flexible and structured, your dog or cat will never feel lonely and will always get the focused care, exercise, and affection they need throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and secure home environment where pets feel safe and relaxed. During walks, I strictly keep dogs on a leash, stay attentive to surroundings, and avoid unnecessary risks or conflicts with other animals. I closely follow every owner's specific rules regarding diet, medication, and routine, and I make sure your home and pets are treated with maximum respect and care.

“Ed was amazing with Kurama! Took the time to meet him the day before his first walk, and was extremely gentle with Kurama. Ed was also very respectful when entering the house as well. I highly recommend !”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.

“Grace handled my dog very well for her afternoon walk. She was kind and professional. Would be glad to have her walk Luna again!”

About: I have been a dog lover since I was born. I was a Dog mom to Jack, a rescue Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix for 16 years. He recently passed away on 7.24.26. Taking care of furry friends is a privilege for me now. I live a few blocks from Forest Park which is a great place for long walks with furry friends. I started dog walking when I lived in Asheville,NC while I went to,school at UNCA 15 years ago to make extra money. It ended up being the best part of my days. I have continued to,dog walk on a part time basis and enjoy bonding with dogs. They are absolutely precious animals that need daily exercise, attention and love just as Cesar Millan would say. I have learned so much about dogs through reading Cesar Millans books as well as watching his show. I have been working remotely since the pandemic in 2020, so I always have time to take care of furry friends throughout the day or week. I have a spacious 2 bedroom apartment and one of the bedrooms is dedicated to pets with a pet bed, toys and space to roam around and stay busy.

“Amazing as always. My dog had a great time with her, and immediately chugged water when he got home from the walk. He hates drinking water! Glad he got some exercise, or at least as much as his little Chihuahua legs will allow him.”
