Dog Walkers in Lincoln, DE

About: I have had pets in my life since childhood. I grew up with dogs, cats and guinea pigs. As an adult, my husband and I have always had a dog. I have experience with many other kinds of pets as well. Our son has had a cat, guinea pigs, a breaded dragon, hermit crabs, fish, turtles, and scorpions. I am retired and working with animals is an ideal way for me to spend my spare time. My son is in college and works full-time during the summer. I am available on short notice and every day of the week. We have a senior chihuahua. Her eyesight is declining. We are very careful when she is outdoors and always close by to supervise her. Indoors, she loves to sit with us on the furniture or snuggle in one of her pet beds. We also have a three year old yellow lab. She loves to be outdoors and we have an Invisible Fence that allows her to spend a lot of time outside. Indoors, she is always near her family. I am also able to feed various other pets and clean cages.

About: I will treat your babies the same as my own. Our animals are our family. Growing up, I had fur siblings. They may have had four paws, but they still got birthdays, they still got a Christmas stocking, and if someone got a sweet treat, they did too. I think I am different, but my whole life, I have looked at animals more than just that. They are companions that we love for part of our lives, but we are an entire lifetime to them. They love unconditionally and deserved to be given the same. I went from being 5 and taking naps with my family's lab, to riding horses by 10, to volunteering at the shelter by 12, groomer by 19, and certified in behavior, nutrition for cats and dogs at 22. I love animals. My commitment to always wanting to learn more about them and give them the best possible care, sets me apart. I am currently not working, and I have a 5-yr old son full time. He will be going to school in the fall, but I am looking for something to be able to do until them. I have a very open schedule. Your home will be treated as you left it, unless your fur child says otherwise which I will happily document and send to you in the moment. I want to create an environment that I am your fur babies' best friend, so when you are not home, maybe they won't miss you too much :)

About: Hello, My name is Kennedy! Since I was young, I always had a four-legged friend around which also came with a lifelong love for all animals. I started helping out neighbors and family with dog walking and drop-in visits and always received excellent feedback. I started getting more involved with the local Humane Societies around my area in my downtime and I truly loved every minute. I would volunteer with various rescues and help out with adoption events whenever possible. I am committed to providing your pets with personalized care to meet their needs when you can't be there. If you are in need of a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter, I am here to help :) I am a teacher and with the school year almost over, I have June, July & August available for bookings so reserve your spot today :) I currently have open availability on weekends! I currently live in an quiet & safe community. We do live in an apartment and take our dog out every 3-4 hours as well as make sure daily walks happen regardless of the weather. She is hypoallergenic. It would be better to stay at the client's home since my partner has pet-related allergies.

About: Pets have been such a major part of my life. I grew up with dogs and cats all my life and love spending time with all animals. I enjoy taking the dogs for walk and enjoying the fresh air. Loving and caring for animals is a part of my life and something i enjoy doing. I care for animals as if they were my own and will do what is needed to make sure you pets are taken great care of. I want to make sure i meet all of your expectations and make sure you and your pets are happy. I strive to build bonds with the animals and understand the pets as best as i can.

About: I have 2 dogs and a cat. My dogs are Angus (an 11 year old Bugg (pug/boston terrier mix) and Archie (a 5 year old Boston Terrier). I also have a 14 1/2 year old cat named George who I rescued about a year and a half ago. He was an outdoor cat for his entire life, but I've turned him into a spoiled indoor cat. No one thought I could do it, but here we are. I've worked with a couple of rescues over the years and have fostered many dogs and cats. In addition to fostering, my rescue work also included coordinating, conducting and meeting rescue transports, administering meds to animals that were transported into the rescue and handling adoptions and home visits, care for kittens and puppies and elderly animals. I have had at least one dog in my life for just about my entire life. Cats came later in life when I had my kids because when I was a child myself, I wasn't allowed to have a cat. Over the years, I've learned about as much about cats as I know about dogs. My animals are well loved and cared for and I am very good at building new relationships with dogs and cats - meeting them where they are and working with them based on their individual cues and needs, not human expectations. Although I have no formal training, I have years of experience that has benefited me with extremely well behaved and happy animals. Before moving to Delaware, I was the unofficial dog/cat sitter for my neighborhood. I decided then that I would like to at least start doing this professionally on a part time basis. Now that I've been here for a little more than a year, the time is right for me to start. First with daily check ins and walks. Perhaps overnights with pets in my home on on a case by case basis since I have my own fur babies here. Your pets would be in great hands with me. I work full time from home and can do occasional walks and check in's during my work day. I have more availability after work and on the weekends. I walk my own dogs in the mornings, but I can check in on yours as needed. Either a visit to feed and play for a bit or for a quick walk. Overnight stays at my home for your dogs is a possibility on a case by case basis.

About: Mature, responsible, caring female who has a dog, has taken lessons in caring for, interacting with and directing dog behavior and activities. Your dog will be a welcome guest in our home. As a retired yet very active, responsible female I am able to be meet the needs of dogs and to offer dog care on a flexible basis. I have a large, unfenced yard including a run line, well suited to walking dogs. For owners whose dogs are trained to walk on a leash and who desire more extensive exercise for their pet, I also offer longer walks through our quiet neighborhood.
