Dog Walkers in Lakeville, IN

About: I love hanging out with dogs and getting to know them. I love playing and walking with them and I have a lot of experience doing so. I have been dog sitting for about 4 years now for my families friends and I have taken care of elder dogs and puppies and dogs that have needed to take medication. I do have experience with 100+ pound dogs that pull on the leashes. If you do need me to walk a bigger dog, please tell me what the dog will react to so I can be prepared to walk them. If there are two bigger dogs, I will not book until I know if they are reactive to anything. I am also able to take care of other small animals like amphibians, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals. If you do have farm animals, I do require a meet and greet. i can always take care of your dog after 10am throughout the week and anytime on the weekends. I can also take your dog to a local park or path and walk then there! I will typically go to copus, central park, or east race but whatever is closest I will go to. If you have a recommended place for me to go, I will go there. This will typically take an hour and that includes the drive there and back. This service costs 40 dollars. At my own home, I make sure my pets have a very stimulating environment and I try to play with them as much as a can. I will do the same with your friends. I am also available to water plants, take in the mail, and do other house activities if I am doing a drop in visit only. Just let me know ahead or time or leave me a note, and I will make sure to get the chores done.

“Great with Tommy.”

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

“Melissa is fantastic. My little anxious dog is new to drop in visits while I'm gone, but Melissa showed her exactly the patience and kindness she needed to get comfortable. Olive treats her like a great friend every time she sees her now! I'd recommend Melissa to anyone without hesitation.”

About: I work at kryder kritter hotel in granger and I have numerous years of experience with all types of animals. I’ve always been a big animal lover no matter what it is! I have experience with all ages of dogs/cats! Pet care normally fits right in with my work schedule! I work at Kryder Kritter Hotel (boarding/daycare facility) and I typically only work 6-7 hours a day. I can walk dogs before/after work and when I’m doing overnights I’m there unless I’m at work! In my clients home I can either do drop-ins or overnights! In the clients home I do exactly what I am told and if something isn’t working or there is an issue with the animal in any way I am sure to contact/communicate right away!

About: Whether it be dogs, cats, horses, cows, or any animal in-between, I've been raised around animals all of my life. I've had a dog that I've cared for on my own since I was nine years old and couldn't imagine my life without one. With over 15 years of pet care experience, I'm more than comfortable handling your pet from the puppy/kitten stage to their golden senior years, and have experience with medication administration and special care attention. I currently have a three year old Australian Shepherd of my own, and so have no issue handling dogs with a stronger need for mental stimulation and exercise. Whether it be a simple check-in at the home, to a walk around the neighborhood, to taking your dog to the local park or joining me on a run, I'm happy to ensure that we keep your dog to the schedule he/she prefers at your comfort level! If you happen to have a feline friend instead, I have several years experience babysitting for the neighborhood and college friends' cats, and am more than happy to watch over your fur baby while you're away.

About: Hello, my name’s Anna. I have been taking care of dogs since I was 18. My family recently got a golden doodle several years ago and he has definitely been a joy and a task. Having a dog such as mine has made me more comfortable in my dog caring skills and fairly knowledgeable about what needs dogs have. I’m also very well equipped to handle puppies as I recently got a cocker spaniel several months ago. But given that, my passion for dogs continues to grow. I work full time but like to stay active and adding furry friends to the mix on my days off is no big task. I would love to see more dog friends and help them socialize and make someone’s life easier. I don’t have a fenced in back yard, but I am capable of taking dogs on as many walks as needed. I am also capable of putting dogs in a crate and preparing them for crating as long as needed.

About: Your pet is welcome in my home! They will get lots of TLC, play time, feeding, walking & love. My house is small but live on 2 acres in the country. My yard is not fenced so I walk your pets on a leash & there are trails in the woods where they love to walk too. I also have a tie out if they dont do well on a leash & some are fine to free roam but they are never left unattended. I can take 2 small to medium dogs or 2 large or 1 giant dog. I will also transport your pet(s) to & from your home if needed. This will be an additional fee. I have been professionally petsitting for the past 17 years. References are supplied upon request. Any cancellation less than 7 days before stay begins will result in no refund provided.

About: I know I’d only want the best for my fur babies, so I plan to be that for your pets needs. I have many years of dog obedience classes with two different (sometimes opposite) dogs. I love getting to know the different needs of each dog. They are all individual. I’ve grown up with many animals. I’ve dog sat before and been expected to administer various kinds of medication. I am not a behavior expert. I do have experience dealing with difficult behaviors and will carry out any request you have for training that I am able. Training alignment is important to me. And less confusing for your fur baby I currently have one dog who is very well socialized. Play dates are an option. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I am a teacher looking for summer work. I also work with dogs on the side. I have lots of experience working with all breeds of dogs. Each dog or pet has their own needs and personality. My own dogs need different feeding schedules and training. I know how to differentiate and listen to a pet’s needs.

“I can't recommend Kim enough. She obviously loves dogs is very reliable and kept me informed often.”

About: Hi! My name is Jacee. I’ve had the joy of growing up in a home with at least three dogs at any given time, so I’m very familiar with the care, attention, and love that our furry companions need. More recently, I’ve also started house-sitting for friends with cats, and it’s given me a deeper understanding of how to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their humans are away. Whether it's dogs or cats, I’m confident in my ability to provide the care and attention your fur baby deserves! Pet care fits into my routine in a really natural and enjoyable way. I work full time, but I’m able to step out during my lunch break to take a dog for a walk or spend time with a cat for some play, company, or feeding. On days when I work from home (which happens a few times a week), I have more flexibility and can offer longer visits or more frequent check-ins. I’m also available on weekends, which allows for even more dedicated time with your pet. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love fitting it into my day whenever possible! While I’m not able to board pets in my own home, I’m very comfortable and respectful when caring for pets in their own space. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and relaxed in their environment, and I treat every home I enter with the same care and professionalism I’d expect from someone looking after my own. I would be sure to follow any directions exactly!
