Dog Walking Lakeside

About: * Lifelong experience with dogs * Experience with puppies through senior dogs * Experience with small, medium, and large breeds * Have had my own dog for the past ~3 years * Live a very active lifestyle * Attentive and detail-oriented * Comfortable following individual routines and instructions * Experience helping care for other people’s dogs I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. I know firsthand how helpful it can be to have someone reliable care for your pet when life gets busy, and I want to provide that same peace of mind to other pet parents. I genuinely love being around animals and am excited to meet some new furry friends and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away! I always make sure to follow each pet’s individual routine and the care instructions provided by their owner. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any specific needs or preferences. I love keeping dogs active and engaged, while also making sure they feel comfortable and cared for in their own home. I’m respectful of my client’s home and always make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. Most importantly, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own.

About: I grew up with a menagerie of cats and dogs in my family's home, including my soulmate Jukebox (a sassy calico) who I had for 16 years and my childhood dachshund, Prissy! My husband and I are now empty nesters after our 18 year old cat Momo (also calico) crossed the rainbow bridge. I am an auntie to many pups and cats and love to be counted on by friends and family when they need someone to check on their fur babies. My schedule is very flexible, so I'm available for dependable weekday pet care that fits your routine. I love getting outside every day and would be happy to have your pup (large or small) join me for a "hot girl walk!" Whether it's a walk, playtime, or keeping your cat company, I'll make sure they get plenty of attention. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities! I'll carefully follow your instructions and routine, like feeding, fresh water, walks or potty breaks, medication (if needed), and litter box scooping for cats. I'll be mindful when entering/leaving your home to help keep pets secure, respect your home, and provide regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind.

“Grace has been so kind and accommodating with our little Luna! Even on days when our 11-year-old pup isn’t quite up for a walk, Grace still takes the time to bring her outside to a shady spot in the grass so she can enjoy some fresh air and the beautiful weather. We truly appreciate the extra care and attention she gives Luna”

“Excellent caretaker for my fur baby. Linda is flexible with scheduling, prompt with responding and professional. Linda sends a picture of my dog from every walk and gives an update on how he is doing. This is most helpful and puts my worries at ease.”

About: I’ve been a nature and animal lover since childhood and have had pets for as long as I can remember! I love the special connection humans share with animal companions. I have watched both elderly cats and dogs, including a cat with chronic health issues (diabetes). I can also handle kittens and puppies over 3 months of age. I can’t wait to meet your pets and see what makes them special! Im currently unemployed/between jobs, so I will be available all day to take care of your fluffy friends! I need to be back at my house morning and evening to feed and play with my cats, but otherwise I’ll be around for your pets. Depending on what your pet needs I’ll adjust. I love going to the park and walking dogs, I can hang with your cat if they need company, and I can give any pet the best grooming session with a little brush! I have taken care of pets with dietary and medical needs before, and feel comfortable giving insulin shots.

About: Hello! My name is Jackie and I've been a dog mom for over 20 years. My first pup was a Golden Retriever named Sam and my second is an Aussie named Norman. Long before Rover I would often house/pet sit for friends. I have experience with all ages of dogs. I cared for my good ole boy Sam from puppyhood until he was almost 15. On the other hand, Aussie Norman is high-functioning and anxious dog. He gets along well with other pups and loves playing. I work from home and am able to let dogs out as often as necessary, plus I have a doggie door. We live in a great neighborhood where it is easy to go out for walks. My house has a doggie dog that fits pups up to 80 lbs! It gives them great freedom to move in and out for bathroom breaks as they wish. Although the house is small, it has a large backyard. Norman is a friendly Aussie who loves other dogs, big and small, and would love a play friend. Pups can sit on the couch, just not the beds.

“Haley is great! My dog can be a bit scared of new people and she took time to meet with him before. She walked him and sent pictures and it looks like they had a great day! Highly recommend!”

“Joel is amazing with our big lab! He takes care to communicate and post photos of their adventures. I know Gus loves his time outside with this buddy! I'd highly recommend Joel's services. 🐾”

About: Mostly all my experience is caring my pets, and friends/family. I am very in tune with my pets and other pets, sensing friendly or unfriendly pets. I'm currently retired and seeking to add 3-4 dog walking sessions per week. I will be available late mornings 10-1pm and late afternoons 4-7pm, Monday - Friday. I currently walk my 8 year old pet, several times daily, leashed around my neighborhood. He is friendly, yet cautious with other dogs. I am respectful with other dog walkers and dogs.

“Illiana was very communicative and one of my dog’s favorite dog walkers. She is always on time, lets me know when she gets there and always send a post walk selfie to ease my mind. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. My parents bred dogs, we had horses, pigs, cats and chickens. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats so cannot take care them. I started watching my friends and families dogs recently and my kids and I love it and want to invite more into our home❤️ I work full time but I can work from home anytime. I am mostly home with my kids and we love taking walks and playing outside. I have a fenced yard and a house that can easily be blocked off if needed. We are a few blocks from a lake that we love to walk to!

“Samantha took great care of Poppy and we really appreciate her coming over and walking poppy, letting her run around outside and giving her treats”

“Juliana did an amazing job! She was thorough and really followed my pups’ pace and needs. She sent pics, which I really appreciated! My boys loved her, and I would recommend Juliana to anyone. Thank you so much!”

About: Apart from loving and taking care of my family’s three dachshunds and two cats, I also have years of experience caring for other people’s pets. I have followed detailed care instructions when handling multiple dogs at a time and have experience administering medications to elderly dogs. I not only make sure your pet’s needs are taken care of, but I think it’s important to give them extra love to keep them happy and feelings safe while their favorite people are away. I’m currently wrapping up my current position and am excited to focus more on growing my art business. I’m looking for flexible work that fits alongside my creative career, which makes pet sitting a perfect fit. My schedule allows me to be reliable, responsive, and able to spend quality time with the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, drop in visits, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pets receive the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and follow your care instructions closely. I strive to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, communicative, and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I also treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I was the primary caregiver to my childhood dog (who I considered my best friend) growing up from age 5 to age 20. I've been the primary babysitter including overnight stays for my sister's German shepherd since he was a puppy until now well into adulthood. My husband is allergic so I'm not able to own my own animals despite how much I LOVE them, so I'm looking to get my animal fix by helping other people take care of their animals during the day when they're busy and at work 🥰 I've found myself with a lot of free time during weekdays and would love to use that time to help people take care of their pets and take them on walks, while also getting more quality time myself with cute animals!! I am a responsible and experienced dog walker who would be happy to walk your dogs around their own neighborhood where they're comfortable, or bring them somewhere new near my dog friendly neighborhood in olde town Arvada!

“Armando was great with Bear, from the initial meet & greet to the actual dog-walking appt. We plan on working with him again!”
