Dog Walking Lake Park

“Yesterday was the first time walking our dog. Jessica communicated when she would arrive, when walking our dog, where they walked and shared photos of our dog taking a walk. I was out of town and felt very confident that Jessica was taking good care of our dog. We will have Jessica take care of Louie, our dog, again.”

About: I adore animals. In my experience I am very good at play time as well as making sure they are taken care of and well fed. Whether your pet is high energy or prefers to relax a little more, I will make sure they are accommodated properly.As well as making sure they get to their appointments on time if this applies. Your pet will be in loving hands. I have experience taking dogs on hikes or simple walks around the neighborhood as well as taking them to and from appointments. Your furry friend and I are sure to have a good time no matter the need for care. I look forward to helping you and them along in the day. I work part time with a schedule that changes weekly. I will let you know if my schedule interferes with any bookings at the time. If your pet is staying in my home please know that I have a cat of my own that is friendly with both cats and dogs. I do live in an apartment complex that is easily walkable and has a small dog park.

“Our girl, Ruth, had a great time with Emily! Emily was on time, communicative, respectful of our home, and loved on our pup! We will definitely use her again!”

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind dog walker!”

About: We’ve cared for our dog for many years until she passed away. We love animals and love caring for them. Currently we have two cats and two geckos but no dogs of our own. We’re currently not sitting any dogs at our home but are very willing to walk/ spend time with your furry friend. I work nights, my partner works days so there is always someone around to take your dog for a walk, play or to a park. Most times work for us. We live in a very dog friendly community with very large green spaces for us to walk your dog. We have a spacious apartment for your dog to stay in as well as many toys.

“Recommend. Good walker!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and friends and family have often relied on me to help walk or care for their dogs when they are out of town! Besides having had a dog of my own, I used to volunteer at both dog and cat rescues. I love making pets happy and helping to give them the best lives possible :) I am a medical school student so I have flexibility in between school and studying for your pet care needs, from daily walks to house sitting! I make sure to consistently keep an eye out for the pet I’m caring for and will offer frequent and honest communication with you to ensure you know your pet is being very well cared for. I will make sure that there’s nothing around within the home that could harm your pet.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends. I’ve taken my brother’s dog on walks and potty breaks numerous times and understand the importance of exercise, routine, and giving dogs plenty of attention. I’ve also cared for my sister’s dog for several days at a time while she was out of town, managing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition, I’ve helped friends by stopping by during the day to let their dogs outside and make sure they were comfortable and cared for. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I strive to provide patient, reliable, and loving care so both pets and owners feel at ease. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a fun walk, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to treating them like they’re my own. I'm currently in between jobs, so I am free any day of the week. I usually spend my mornings on my job hunt and then go for a walk or run and exercise. I'm very physically active and enjoy being outside, so I'm very open and flexible! I have a private dog park at my apartment building that is great! I am also open to whatever my clients' needs and wants are. If they need me to stay at their place for a little to help their pet feel comfortable, I can accommodate. As mentioned before, I love being outside for walks, or if you have a sporty dog that enjoys runs, I can help out as well! I have a great track record for trust worthiness and dependability. I'm very communicative and will always be available to send pictures or talk through any questions you may have.

About: I am excited to offer dedicated dog walking and personalized in-home sitting tailored to your pet's specific personality. My goal is to maintain the comfort of their home environment while providing the physical and mental stimulation they need. A typical visit or walk includes: Structured Exercise: Brisk walks or backyard fetch to burn off energy. Mental Enrichment: Basic command reinforcement and puzzle toy play. Safety First: Leash safety, checking water bowls, and ensuring your home is secure. Personalized Attention: Brushing, belly rubs, and companionship for those who just want a friend nearby. I have been surrounded by dogs literally since the day I was born, giving me a natural "dog intuition" when it comes to reading body language and moods. Currently, I am raising my own puppy, which has given me specialized, hands-on experience with the "hard stuff": potty training, teething, high-energy management, and the patience required for consistent training. Whether your pet is a senior who needs a gentle touch or a rambunctious puppy still learning their manners, I have the experience to handle both ends of the spectrum with ease. As a student at SCAD, my schedule is predictable and fits perfectly with pet care. I am not a 9-5 office worker; instead, I use the breaks between my classes to check in on my furry clients, ensuring they aren't left alone for long periods. I am primarily available for early morning walks, midday drop-ins, and overnight house sitting. When I’m house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. Since I’m often working on my creative projects, I am the perfect "passive companion" for pets who thrive on having someone in the room. You can expect frequent photo updates and open communication so you can have total peace of mind while you're away. As a SCAD student, my schedule is consistent and easy to plan around. I’m available for morning and evening walks, and I strategically use the breaks between my classes to check in on your pets. When I’m house sitting, I treat your home with the utmost respect. My own experience raising a puppy has made me highly disciplined with routines; I ensure your dog gets their exercise, feedings, and plenty of one-on-one attention exactly when they expect it. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick walk or staying the night, your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! In Your Home: Safety is my top priority. Having a puppy of my own, I am hyper-aware of 'pet-proofing'. keeping chewable hazards, toxic plants, and small objects out of reach. I am a firm believer in the 'Double-Door' rule and always ensure gates or doors are secure before unleashing a pet. During walks, I am vigilant about surroundings, keeping a firm grip on the leash and avoiding interactions with unknown dogs to ensure a stress-free experience." Building Trust: I understand that your home is your sanctuary. I pride myself on being respectful, clean, and communicative. I provide detailed photo and text updates after every walk or check-in so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. As a SCAD student, I am used to following strict schedules, so you can trust that feedings, medications, and potty breaks will happen exactly on time.

About: I have lifelong experience with animals, having pets all my life and working various animal care jobs. I worked at a doggy daycare for two years in high school, where I gained hands-on experience managing dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. That role helped me become confident in reading dog behavior, maintaining safe play environments, and providing attentive care throughout the day. Growing up, my family fostered puppies frequently, so I’m comfortable with young dogs and understand the patience, structure, and consistency they need. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life and have pet-sat for neighbors and family friends for years, caring for both energetic pets and older animals who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I recently graduated from UW–Madison and moved away from home, and I truly miss being around animals. Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it's something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. I’m very caring, responsible, and dedicated, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. I often work from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m typically not away from home for more than four to six hours at a time, and I’m intentional about making sure pets get regular care, playtime, and affection. Because of my flexible schedule, I can adapt to your pet’s specific needs—whether that’s extra exercise, medication timing, or just lots of cuddles and company.

About: I am a compassionate and positive person who has endless love to give to your dog, who I know is an important member of your family. I am a counselor full time working to give your dog a little extra joy and comfort. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I have the skills and experience to take exceptional care of your baby. If you are looking for someone to sing songs and hype your dog up with affirmations, I am the right person for you! I am available 6-7am and 5-8pm weekdays until June. From June to August, my availability will expand to 6am-9pm. I have varying availability on weekends. I am a diligent person and will make sure to leave your space how I found it! If I notice anything out of sorts, such as a puppy chewing a new rug, I will let you know.

“Kathryn was outstanding. She was great with my pup and was extremely personable. I can’t wait to utilize her for any future dog sitting/walking needs!”

“Rover asks me how well Sylvia enjoyed her time with Travis. Though I’ve asked her a couple of times, she just won’t elaborate. What I can tell you is that Travis is a good communicator and is prompt. 🙂”
