Dog Walking Lilac

“Always the best”

Shari C.

About: I have been trusted by friends and family to pet sit the past 3 years. I love all animals the same and have owned multiple pets my whole life. I am working part time and college part time with a flexible afternoon schedule. Mornings on Friday-Sundays are always great and give me lots of free time. I have a secure fenced in backyard with chickens separated to the side. We have a dog crate inside. At this time I do not offer boarding while I am trying to train my puppy.

About: - I’ve been blessed with 3 dogs in my life - I’ve dog-sat on multiple occasions for family and friends - I’ve worked at 2 dog daycare/boarding centers My schedule is very open at the moment. I am willing to accommodate a wide variety of schedules to take care of your pet :) I will care for dogs the way the owners would want me to. I’m very gentle and can accommodate the their stimulation needs and energy levels.

“I am so happy that my daughter found Tamara to help me with my pets. She is so sweet and kind with them, and me! She is a keeper and I definitely will be using her again and again.”

About: Over the 15 years I’ve been house sitting professionally, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for puppies to sr. dogs, kittens to sr. cats, lizards, fish, birds, and even farm animals. My goal when I care for your pet is to keep your pet in the routine to which they are accustomed. That means I follow your written instructions, as far their feeding time, walk time, etc. Though, I also want your vacation to feel like a staycation for your pet. That means I’m going to have fun with them whether that means giving them belly rubs, playing fetch with them or playing other fun games with them. Also, please note that you can hire me for overnights, dog walks, or both. So, my price for overnight stays is to stay in your home and care for your pet, but dog walking is separate from overnight stays. During my stay, as much as I will care for you pet(s), I will also care for your home. I’m happy to water any plants, bring in any deliveries/mail, take out the trash and other light chores (I won’t mow your lawn). I work for myself writing online content for people, so my work goes where I go. The only thing I ask is that you have an Internet connection and someplace where I can set up my computer. As far as caring for pets in my home, I am only able to board certain breeds of dogs, and that is contingent on the permission of the homeowner. I am unable to care for cats in my home, but I would be able to come to your home.. In general, I always care for your pet according to your schedule and preference. And I am always sure to adjust my schedule according to the schedule you set for me to ensure your pet receives optimal care. But the key to pet sitting is to emulate the routine to which the dog is already accustomed. My goal is that when you go on vacation your pet(s) will feel like they're on a staycation. Also, please note while I charge $65 per day, I charge separately for walks ($20 per walk). For pets that do not require walks (cats, sr. dogs, etc), I charge $75 a day.

“Mireya was wonderful. We booked her last min and she just rolled with the punches. Great communication. Our little Cookie usually takes a LONG time to warm up, but she actually hung out and even ate her dinner for Mireya. Winston fell in love and I’m sure he can’t wait to see her again.”

“We had a great experience with Dana. She was very communicative, kept us updated regularly, and was always on time for visits. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog, Sierra, in her care, which gave me real peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker!”

About: With years of experience caring for friends' and neighbors' dogs, I've developed a natural connection with pets. Growing up surrounded by both cats and dogs, I understand their unique needs and personalities. My lifelong passion for animals, combined with my hands-on experience, ensures your furry friend will receive the best care possible. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I provide a loving and trustworthy environment for your pet. Pet care fits well into my current routine, as I’m looking for part-time work and have availability Wednesday through Saturday, primarily in the afternoons and evenings. This schedule allows me to plan my time around the needs of the pets in my care and provide attentive, dependable service during those hours. Starting in mid-November, I’ll have even more flexibility in my schedule, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of pet care needs. My goal is to make sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve! I provide pet care in the comfort of your home, as I currently do not have the space to care for pets in my own. I follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, cleanings, and walks, to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to offer a stress-free experience by maintaining consistency and offering personalized care while you’re away.

“Samantha is truly the best! She is so caring and kind and takes extra time to work on training. She writes the best report cards and takes the cutest pictures.”

About: I have always lived with many different types of pets. I’m 100% the person people come to when they need someone trustworthy to care for their pets! I am very active and love to go on long walks and even runs for the more high energy pets, but I do love a good snuggle curled up with movies if that is their vibe. I like to think of myself as the jack of all trades when it comes to pet sitting since I can really mold myself to fit any pet’s personality and routine. I also have experience with senior pets since I have grown up and still have a family dog who is about 18 years old lol. She has a special diet we hand cook, and I am specially trained in administering medicine to all types of animals since my mom is a retired veterinary assistant. I work remotely so I have a lot of flexibility for long term house sitting bookings as well as a reliable mode of transportation (a good car) for longer distance bookings as well. I constantly am running through my mental checklist for all of my pets needs, and when I am caring for a client’s pet, I even use a physical checklist so that I am thorough and consistent. I make sure I am always taking the proper precautions during walks, and on overnight stays, I make sure to lightly dust and/or sweep and mop to keep your home tidy while you are away.

About: Hi! My name is Devin, and I’m a dependable animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, overnight care, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. Over the past 10–11 years, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities from small breed dogs and cats to large dogs weighing up to 80 pounds. I’m comfortable with energetic pups, senior pets, shy animals, and multi-pet households. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m an active person who genuinely enjoys getting outside with dogs. Whether it’s a leisurely neighborhood walk, an energetic run, or simply spending time exploring new sights and smells, I love helping pets stay physically and mentally engaged. In my free time, I often take my own pets to the beach to enjoy fresh air, socialization, and a little water play. Watching them have fun while staying active is one of my favorite parts of being a pet owner, and I’d love to provide that same level of care and enrichment for your pets. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and consistent care while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently offering: * Dog walking * Drop-in visits * House sitting * Overnight pet care I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, my days already revolve around feeding, walks, exercise, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy and healthy. I enjoy being active, so adding dog walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays fits well into my schedule. I believe every pet deserves individual attention, consistency, and plenty of affection, and I make time to provide that level of care for every pet I look after. I always strive to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household routines your pet is used to. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with regular photo and message updates so you know they’re doing well. For dogs, I’m happy to provide walks, play sessions, or even a run if that’s part of their normal routine. For cats, I take a patient approach and let them interact at their own pace while making sure they receive fresh food and water, a clean litter box, enrichment, and companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

About: Hello! My name is Rachel, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. At home, I’m lucky enough to share my life with five wonderful dogs—three playful pugs and two larger rescues—so I understand firsthand just how much love, attention, and care our pets need to feel safe and happy. Because of my own pack, I’ve become well-versed in handling everything from energetic play sessions to slow, relaxing walks, and I know how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I also have experience with multi-dog households, administering medications, and making sure feeding schedules and routines are followed carefully. I treat every dog I meet as if they were my own. When your pup is in my care, you can trust that they’ll receive not only reliable attention, but also genuine affection and companionship. I believe communication is key, so I make sure to provide updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets are part of your family, and when they’re with me, they become part of mine too. 🐾 Caring for pets is already a big part of my daily life! With five dogs of my own—three pugs and two larger rescues.I’m used to balancing walks, feeding times, play, and downtime on a structured schedule. Having a full pack at home has taught me the importance of routine, patience, and flexibility. Because pet care is naturally built into my day, I can easily adjust my routine to meet the needs of your pets too. Whether that means early morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m comfortable creating a consistent, reliable schedule so your furry family member feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. When caring for pet, I follow all instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure.
