Dog Walking Lake Roesiger

About: I am an experienced obedience dog trainer who wishes for a work-life balance helping animals!! Animals have been my passion throughout my life, ranging from reptiles, rodents, to dogs. My goal is to further expand my knowledge in dog training and to learn everything there is to help guide me into more opportunities working with furballs! Having animals of my own, as well as having many in the family, has given me experience with handling. This is where I have learned and practiced skills such as dog training, intervening with disputes, administering medicine, and much more. I also love the outdoors, so hiking is something I love to do with my dogs to burn out their energy. During my experience at ABC (Animal Behavior College), I worked with trainers where I learned techniques for impulse control, reactivity, puppies, and even some service dog training. I also worked with the behavioral specialist at the Everett Animal Shelter where I am provided a list of dogs to work with and make them more adoptable :) I am flexible most days!! I work a full-time job at the moment but have a mixed schedule between days and nights. This makes it easier to do drop-ins/walks during the weekend and then sitting at night during the week! I currently live in a camper with not a lot of room to host doggies here. However, I will be moving to Burlington area soon and will have a much bigger area to hopefully board overnight!!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10! Growing up I owned multiple small and big dogs, helped breed golden retrievers, and I currently work as a kennel technician at The Puppy Store in Vineyard! I love taking care of dogs, I am experienced in medicine handling and administering, and grooming. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am working part-time and go to school full-time, so I can work with you and we can make figure out our schedules! I’d be more than willing to drop by and take care of your dog, watch them, walk them, and love them! I’ll be flexible with you as long as you’re patient with me! I respect the dog’s boundaries and I try my best to gain their trust before I fully interact with them. If I go to your house I become fully aware of the space the dog has. I will never put your dog in a dangerous position. I am experienced in administering medication to your dog if necessary.

About: As an animal lover myself, I understand how stressful busy schedules can be for our fur babies (and their parents)! I have a flexible schedule and lots of belly scratches to give, so let me help you! Dogs have always been an integral part of my life and I currently have two of my own, Enzo and Bru. I have experience with puppies, seniors, handicapped dogs and have owned a variety of them all at one time or another. I have fostered shelter babies, cared for malnourished babies until they were healthy again, and cared for dogs after major surgeries as well. No dog is too small or too big. If I can help, please let me know! I currently have an open and flexible schedule with no unavailable days or times. I recently moved to Washington from Louisiana and am doing side work until school starts later this year. The safety of your pet is my highest priority (even above giving belly rubs), and I believe good communication is key for successful care. Whatever needs your pet has, I will do my absolute best to fulfill those needs while keeping them safe and happy.

“Rebecca was amazing! She went above and beyond caring for our dog while we were out of town. Taking her on nice long walks, sending lots of updates and pictures, even cleaning up an accident our dog had in the house! We were glad to have found her while we were in the area!”

“Debbie did a great job walking Winston. She was on time and let Winston go at his own pace. He loves to stop and sniff and she didn’t hurry him along.”

“Kristina stopped by to spend some time with Ziggy and take him for a walk. He really enjoyed the visit and appreciated the extra attention and exercise. Thanks for taking good care of him!"”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for pets for friends, family, and people in my community. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities, and I make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have experience with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs so they stay safe and happy. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part-time flexibly and doing hybrid college, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for house sitting whenever as long as I’m able to leave the house for classes and short shifts! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so their pet feels comfortable and secure. I handle feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box cleaning, and any other care instructions the owner provides. I respect the client’s home and keep everything clean and organized while I’m there. I also give pets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise so they stay happy while their owner is away. Communication is very important to me, so I always send updates and photos so pet parents know their pet is safe and doing well.

“Natalie was so kind, great overall with peach and very reliable!”

About: Honestly, I'm just a huge animal lover. I've got a goofy Lab-Pittie mix who's my best buddy, and I still miss my two sweet Norwegian Lundehunds like crazy. I'd absolutely love to spend time with your dog, whether it's a long hike, a park visit, or just some good cuddle time. Since I'm home all the time, I'm super flexible. I'm also happy to handle any special needs or meds – they'll be treated like part of the family, I promise! Can't wait to meet your furry friend! I'm semi-retired so my time is flexible. I can be there for your fur baby early in the morning or later into the evening. Weekends are no problem and I'm even available on holidays! I get it – your pet is special, and their care should be too. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I take the time to really listen to you and observe your pet, so I can provide exactly what they need, whether it's a good walk, a timely meal, or just some quiet comfort. I'm here to be a reliable and loving presence for your pet in your own home

About: I’ve owned animals my whole life and have professionally worked with animals for just over a year. I’m a dog trainer always looking for more experience handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, temperaments, ages, etc. I genuinely just enjoy and love working with animals and helping them out! I have a flexible schedule and am available most days. I’m available most early mornings, afternoons, or late night during the week. Weekends i’m free to help in the evening times. I’m all about safety when it comes to working with animals. I have multiple things on my person at all times to help prevent incidents from happening.

About: I have dealt with pets my whole life. From having many cats growing up, to now having a dog. I understand how to approach new animals and understand the a willingness to go slow and allow the animal to make a move I'd often the best way to ensure they feel safe. I currently have no other job and nothing going on for the summer. Ensuring that I am available everyday and most hours of that day. Ensuring that my animals have plenty of food and water, as well as taking them out or cleaning a litter box so they can use the bathroom and feel at ease. In addition I play with my animal and give them affection when they desire it.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life growing up. I have done everything from dog boarding, feeding, bathroom breaks and walks. I truly enjoy taking care of animals! I’m currently a stay at home mom with tons of available time! I’m available any weekday or weekend. Morning, afternoons and evenings! I have a 7 year old daughter who also loves animals and is very aware of their space. I live on 2-1/3 acres tucked away on a small private road. My Property does not have a fence however anytime the dogs are out I am supervising. I have a very large outdoor kennel as well. It’s an absolute dream for dogs who love to run around and play! I have an 8 year old mini Australian Shepherd who is full of energy so he can play all day with the super energetics dogs. Or they can have separate space if need be as well. I also have an entire living room dedicated to dogs where there are gates to keep them in. Comfy Chairs, couch and dog beds for them to lay on. For boarding We have dog crates that we can put in the living room or in a separate room if need be.

About: I've had years of experience taking care of my own pets and also worked as a pet groomer for many years. I've had many animals throughout my life dogs, cats, ferrets, tortoises you name it. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule during the week and my weekends are wide open to spend time with your pets or have them over at my house. I have a fenced backyard and two dogs of my own that love to run and play with other dogs. While your pet is with me they are part of our family.

“Marlene goes above and beyond walking my dog and making sure he is well taken care of while I’m away at work. She is a great person to work with!”

“Ty Elise! Mamba enjoyed his walk with you.”

About: Working from home full time allows me to be able to be there for your fur baby when you can’t due to vacation or work; but they won’t know the difference because Simba and Sno will keep your pet company/busy. I’m a home body so pet care fits in my schedule pretty regularly considering I have 2 Frenchies running around. Lol. I work from home full-time so I’m here more often then not. I have a fenced backyard that the dogs have room to run back and forth in; tons of toys and endless amount of care and love to provide.

“Adam is fantastic! He's reliable and a quick to respond to messages and requests. He quickly learned my dog's favorite spots in the neighborhood and let's him watch his squirrel friends. He provides reports and pictures. After a long walk with Adam, my dog is ready to nap until I get home from work. Totally recommend Adam!”

About: Hello! I am Sam. I have cared for pets of my own since a young age and professionally since I was 18. I have cared for dogs at every life stage and size. I am currently a stay at home mom and have flexible availability. I have cared for special needs dogs and dogs that require specialized medication. I am currently a new mom to a baby girl and have ample time available to care for your pets. I can do morning and evening walks as well as home visits and am flexible with time. As a new person caring for your pet in their territory I am patient and calm. I will keep their regular schedule to make sure their life stays consistent while you are away.

About: Growing up, my dad was allergic to anything with fur. Therefore, I had lizards, fish, birds and every stuffed animal under the sun. I always jumped at the opportunity to spend time with neighbor pets and would beg to give the dogs a bath (my neighbors loved me lol). At the age of 10 I got my first horse (who I still have, 16 years later) and at the age of 14 I got my first dog. He was a Catahoula named Kyser, and he was anything but easy! I lived out of state for 2 years, and during that time I worked at a veterinary clinic and did pet sitting for clients. I miss it! I work M-F 8am-4pm, so I am only available weekends for boarding (potential for weekdays depending on the dog/situation). I am available after work for drop ins or walks! I have a fenced yard with a large male dog named Ozzy. He loves little dogs and female large dogs. He is a bit standoffish with other large males so I am unable to watch them. I would rather play it safe. I would NEVER leave the dogs together unattended. Ozzy is crate trained and has his own room so stepping out of the house would not be an issue.

“I want to thank Jordan for looking after my two dogs. She was so sweet and helpful. I loved that she was constantly updating about the dogs, and sending pictures and she took the time to play with them, fed them and took them for a walk. She was very patient with the dogs. Sanji and Robin are very playful since they’re about a year old. Honestly, after an unexpected long day at work it was great to know my dogs were im good hands. Thank you for asking about taking your shoes off inside the apartment it was very thoughtful and thank you for following all the instructions for the dogs”
