Dog Walking Lakeville

About: I have been a part time dog sitter, cat sitter, house sitter, etc since I was 10 years old. I've also been a volunteer at my local animal shelter since I was 15. I've taken care of old dogs, young dogs, energetic dogs, couch potato dogs, friendly dogs, shy dogs, big dogs, small dogs, you name it. I've been doing this a long time and I've gotten really good understanding each pet and their individual needs. Every dog is different, and I love them all. I also have experience with dogs who need medications and ear drops, and I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid! I provide pet care full time, helping owners have peace of mind when they have to leave their buddies behind for a trip, or to go to work, it makes me happy knowing I can help out people and animals who could use an extra set of hands. I have an active personal life, always making plans friends and family, but offering services on here allows me to plan my leisure time around times I'm needed for pet care. Firstly, I want to say I understand meeting people online and inviting them into your home can be very anxiety inducing, and I want to reassure you that with me, your pet, your house, and your belongings are safe. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm here to help answer anything that could cause you worry. Your pets are part of the family and I understand staying safe is a priority. When I personally am trusted to stay in someone's home, I usually stick around the same area of the house out of habit. I keep food where it belongs to prevent mishaps, and keep things off the floor to prevent injuries of their me or pets. When going for walks I like to stick to trails or sidewalked areas that have decent cell reception, just in case. I keep treats with me, extra bags, and have a phone holder for my wrist so I can have a hand free, especially for dogs who get excited from wildlife and could suddenly pull really hard anytime. I keep a pop up bowl and a bottle for water breaks. Before going for longer walks I touch test the path in case they are too hot. I also have experience putting jackets on dogs in the colder months.

“Lindsay is fantastic! Our skittish sheltie warmed up to her because of her kindness and patience and his walks with her were the highlight of his day. We will definitely use Lindsay again. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi, I’m Hope! I’ve always felt at home with animals, especially dogs. I believe every dog has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to understand what makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving plenty of affection and companionship. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels secure while you’re away. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d love the opportunity to care for your best friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need a helping hand.

“Angela is reliable, responsible, professional, and kind. She is my dog’s new best friend and I am relieved to know that my dog is happy and safe while I am at work.”

About: Just being around animals makes me happy. I work full time as a vet assistant, but looking for a side job to do here and there. :) ** My schedule varies, please reach out** :) I work full time, long hour days so I do have more days off, currently I am looking for drop ins or walks for now! Safety is #1, communication is a must, being able to get your little fur baby out and about is important and fitting all your needs is as well.

About: With 14 animals of my own and over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I truly understand every pet’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or specialized care, your pet will feel right at home with me. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on knowledge of animal behavior and genuine passion for giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I currently don’t work anywhere else which gives me plenty of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends to focus on pet care. Since animals are a huge part of my life already, caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend stays, or afternoon check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels loved and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or playtime—and keep things clean and calm. My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re still there, providing peace of mind for both of you.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs my whole life. Currently have 4 dogs of my own. One of the 4 is a senior dog. I have done beginning training for puppies before they went to their forever homes. Also have experience with dogs that have health conditions and need daily medication. I currently am taking the summer off of work, so I will have all the time in the day to care for and play with your pets! I will regularly let your dog out. If needed, I have experience with e-collars and how to properly use them. I can also crate your dog.

“Tyler and Andrea took my 13 ½-year-old Lab for walks twice a day, morning and evening. Even though the agreement was for 30 minutes, they often walked an extra 10 minutes since my lab is very slow. They were always punctual, communicated clearly, and showed great patience. Walking Veera is not easy at his age, but they never complained and cared for him with kindness. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby while we were sick — it gave us such peace of mind.”

About: Hi, I’m Annalise! My husband and I are definite dog lovers. We travel so we are unable to own our own dog but would love to watch your dog instead! I have dog sat for many years. Let me love and care for your dog. I can’t wait to hear from you! **When staying at our house we can only take low shedding dogs, but I can walk/do drop-in visits for all dogs! My job is partially remote and my husband works remotely every day so we will be able to care your dog throughout the day as needed! We live in a community with great trails! If desired we will care for your dog by taking them on lots of walks, feeding them at the proper times and playing with them.

About: I love caring for pets of all ages and breeds, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs and cats. I’m skilled in giving medications, as I care for my own senior dog. I can maintain special diets, and provide physical activity, as well as mental stimulation to keep pets happy and healthy. What sets me apart is my ability to read each animal’s special needs, as I have many pets of my own. I have much patience and compassion when it comes to pets, whether it’s training a puppy, assisting a senior pet with mobility, or simply offering cuddles and attention. I treat each and every pet as my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m flexible and reliable, so I can accommodate different routines, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or special care needs. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority, not something I squeeze in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and playtime instructions closely, while giving plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home tidy, clean up after pets (including litter boxes and feeding areas), and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for.

“Thomas did a great job walking our dogs and making sure they were taken care of while we were gone for the day. We'll definitely book Thomas again in the future!”

About: I've taken care of my own dogs since I was 9 years old. We had three German shepherds in our family at once so we kept them busy with walks and a lot of play time. We now have our fourth German shepherd who relies on me to walk, bathe, and feed her. I've taken care of my friends dogs and have enjoyed every minute of it. I'm currently not working so I can take care of pets during the entire day. I work around the needs of my pet. I will play or walk her in the morning as well as a nighttime walk or car ride, which she enjoys more than the walk! She receives multiple potty breaks throughout the day as well. My dog has an electric fence so she plays fetch for hours. We also live near multiple parks and paths to take her on walks. I am comfortable walking within subs, on dirt roads, or driving to any location to make sure your pet receives the proper care and exercise for the day depending on their needs.

About: I have cared for and owned all different kinds of animals. I have been in the horse riding industry since I was 8 years old so I am not skiddish towards other animals. I truly have a passion for animals and I am very able and willing to do what it takes to take care of your beloved pets!! I am currently a full time student, however I am a commuter so I have the ability to travel freely in between classes and outside of classes. I am on summer break from May-September and have a virtually free schedule for whatever you may need! I am more than happy to confine to whatever you may need me to do in order to give your pet the best care possible. I have slept over, done drop ins, walks, etc. with other dog and cat sitting jobs and I am very comfortable.

About: I've read that dogs have masters and cats have staff, but I am here to provide doting staff member services to both cats and dogs, and any other critters you may have in your house. I've worked in the animal rescue world for many years, and I assure you that there is no dog too big and barky or cat too hissy to dissuade me. I'm happy to provide references and answer any questions. I want you to be able to enjoy a vacation or take care of life's demands without worrying about your best buddy (or multiple buddies!) back home. I am happy to send pictures daily while you're away and provide extra care for those with special needs. Thank you for considering me for your fur-baby care! I'm currently working part-time remotely, so my schedule is pretty open. I'm happy to do in-home checks, dog walking, playing, and all cat care needs most days of the week, as long as I have a couple days notice. I take health safety and home safety very seriously. As a home owner and mother to children and animals, I understand the trust entailed to allow someone new into your home with your treasured pets. I am happy to answer any questions or provide detailed information about myself to ensure your trust and confidence.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and am experienced with dogs and cats. I have 2 senior dogs that I’ve had since they were puppies (a Newfoundland and a Basset hound), and 3 senior cats, so I’ve gotten pretty good at taking care of older animals with health issues, including giving meds orally and topically. I also have 2 cockatiels and a canary! I’ve been a stay-at-home mom for a few years. Now that my youngest is in kindergarten, I have time during school hours to work. I’d love to use that time taking care of your pets! I am careful and observant. I will always verify that your dog’s collar and leash are on securely before we leave the house. If you have a fenced in yard, I’ll ensure the gate is closed and latched, and I’ll watch to make sure your dog doesn’t get into anything it’s not supposed to.

“Jennifer was very accommodating on short notice, easy going, and communicative. Very pleased overall!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, I grew up with puppies, dogs, cats. Family and friends have always trusted me to take care of their pets when going out of town. I currently work part time for doordash, so I have more than enough time to take care of your pets! And is available anytime you need it! I will always be using a leash when taking them outside to go to the bathroom, while making sure it’s a safe and trusted environment for the pets!

“My puppies loved her and she was very accommodating with everything! My pups loved her and defiantly appreciated the exercise.”
