Dog Walking Little Compton

About: I have spent more than a decade caring for my family’s beloved dogs and cats and have been around animals for most of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages, energy levels, and support needs, which has taught me to be patient, observant, and responsive to each animal as an individual. I especially value taking the time to earn a pet’s trust and learn the routines and little cues that help them feel safe and comfortable. My professional background in mental health has also strengthened my ability to remain calm, attentive, empathetic, and sensitive to subtle changes in behavior. I bring that same approach to animal care. I have experience caring for senior dogs with varying medical and mobility needs and am comfortable providing additional support to both cats and dogs while closely following their owner’s instructions and established routine. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet’s individual needs. Whether your companion enjoys long walks, active play, or a slower pace, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care that matches their routine and personality. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your routines and instructions for walks, feeding, medications, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Although I'm new to Rover, I'm not new to caring for pets. I've provided pet sitting and drop-in care for friends and friends of friends, giving me experience with dogs and cats of different personalities, routines, and energy levels. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Owning my own dog has taught me the value of patience, enrichment, positive interactions, and paying attention to each dog's individual personality and needs. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and what helps them feel comfortable and happy. I'm an active person who genuinely enjoys getting outside for walks and adventures, and I love making sure dogs have the opportunity to explore, sniff, and enjoy their time outside at their own pace. Whether your dog loves a longer adventure walk, a game of fetch, or simply some extra companionship, I'll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. For cats and more relaxed pets, I'm just as happy spending quality time keeping them company, playing with their favorite toys, or providing a calm and comforting presence while you're away. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can leave knowing your pet is safe, happy, and treated like one of my own. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I currently have a flexible summer schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins on a variety of days and times. I enjoy being able to provide pets with attention, exercise, and companionship when their families need an extra hand. Once the school year begins, my availability will become more structured as I return to teaching, but I will continue to update my schedule and communicate clearly to make sure I can provide reliable care for the pets I commit to. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. Before each visit or walk, I will take the time to learn your pet's routine, personality, and any specific needs or preferences. I believe every pet is different, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I understand that some dogs may be nervous, shy, or need extra patience when experiencing new people, places, or situations. I will always take the time to build trust, pay attention to their body language, and adjust my approach based on what helps them feel safe and confident. For walks, I focus on creating a safe and enjoyable experience by paying attention to your dog's energy level, surroundings, and comfort. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic adventure or a slower walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore, I will follow their pace and needs. During drop-in visits, I will treat your home with the same respect I would want for my own. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet's routine consistent, and provide updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing they are happy and cared for. My goal is to create a safe, positive experience for both you and your pet—giving you peace of mind while your furry friend enjoys some extra love and attention.

“Kathy is phenomenal. She met the dogs ahead of time and did a great job with our high energy dogs! Detail oriented and super friendly!”

“Isabel was wonderful with Daisy! She was very friendly, followed all of my instructions carefully, and took great care of her during their 30 minute walk. Daisy seemed very comfortable and happy with her. I really appreciated the communication as well. I would absolutely book with her again!”

About: I had a family dog for 17 years, so I have had a lot of experience with a dog in the house! I have watched pets of family members and have walked dogs for my friends, family and neighbors on occasion. I am a huge dog lover but sadly cannot take the full time repsonsibilty of my own so pet sitting seems like the perfect fit for my life right now. I am currently working from home as it is the off season for my job. I am generally home most days, giving me tons of time to play with your pet and make sure they’re well taken care of! I have a very large fenced in backyard, giving your dog tons of room to run and play. My neighborhood is also quiet and friendly making it the perfect place to go for walks.

About: I currently work at the Newport Navy Base at All Paws On Deck doggie day care. I have been there for about a year and am currently one of the lead staff members there taking care of the dogs. I have learned so much on dog behavior and safety. Since working there it has ignited an interest to become a dog trainer. The joy that dogs bring to my life has been so rewarding and I love every minute of my job and being with all my furry friends. I have grown up with always having a dog in my life and had parents that instilled responsibility that came along with it. I have watched and been responsible for friends and neighbors dogs when a helping hand is needed. My up bringing with always having a dog was that they are not just an animal but another member of the family and have to be treated as such. I have been very lucky to have had grown up with amazing dogs. I have rescued 2 beautiful greyhounds that were former racers in Florida. This particular breed is my passion due to the challenges it gives to teach them how to transition from the track to home life. This breed typically has never been inside a home and needs to be taught everything! Stairs, Windows, glass sliding doors, furniture, a yard, trust, and having her own toys and bed. This has taught me so much on how to relate to the dog and learn how they see life. My life currently when im not working is spending time with my family and enjoying the "island life" in Portsmouth. It is my husband and I along with our two boys and Anita (my greyhound). I work part time at the doggie day care. My availability time is flexible. I work half days so im available in the morning or afternoon depending on the day. I will respect the clients home and their pets boundaries and needs. I see it as entering their safe space and would not want them to feel that I am there to change that or threaten that.

About: I’ve had many pets since a small child& treat them like family. I would love nothing more than to be there for you and your loved ones I can always lift a helping hand during my free time!

About: I have experience with dogs of all ages. I have grown accustomed to a range of feeding, walking, grooming and play schedules and also have experience administering medication. I can handle dogs around other pets, acting to keep everyone involved comfortable and safe. I have lots of free time after classes and only a part time work schedule in the summer. I am able to make time morning, afternoon and night! Until August 15th, I will be living with two roommates. One of which have a cat and a dog who are very friendly. I aim to keep boarding to a minimum until I move into my new space where I will have a lot more room and there would be no. concern with pets interacting and living with other pets that they do not know.

About: I have l had the responsibility of taking care of my home pets ever since I could remember. We’ve always had a full house with dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, guinea pigs, chickens, and even a macaw. I have experience with senior dogs that require extra care as I have one of my own. I have also taken a few puppy training classes that I have used on my dogs as well as pups of close friends. Most of my pets have been rescues and I was able to use those skills to break bad, destructive habits that could’ve resulted in injury. I am currently a full time college student and a part time medical assistant at an urgent care clinic. Typically, I would have the most time to commit to intensive pet care in the early mornings, early afternoons, late evenings, and weekends. My dogs are crate trained and my pets typically spend their nights in their designated areas. In the mornings everyone is opened, greeted with many pets and kisses, and fed. The dogs are walked and trained for a bit before my departure. I make sure to leave a few brain engaging toys/ treats while gone for the day. Once I return, the process is repeated with a longer evening walk and extra cuddle time. My senior dog required a bit more attention with daily injections and a specific diet. I am sure I would take care of your pet with the same care and love I give my pets.

About: What sets me apart is that I really take the time to get to know each dog and what makes them happiest. I’ve worked with everything from wiggly puppies who need a little help with training to older dogs who just want a slow, peaceful walk and some extra TLC. I’m super patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup wants to run, sniff, play, or just take it easy, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I have tons of free time, so your pet gets my full attention and flexibility. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a job it’s just a great part of my day. When I care for pets at your home, I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them. I stick to their usual feeding and walk times, give any meds they need, and just hang out to keep them company. I’m not perfect, but I’m always patient and caring, and I make sure to keep their space clean and safe. I’ll check in with you regularly so you know how they’re doing. If I’m watching pets at my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax and plenty of attention. I’m pretty chill and try to keep things low-stress so they feel comfortable. Either way, I just want your pet to feel safe and cared for, even if I’m not perfect!

“My dog got a cut on her ear walking in the woods, and Brittanie responded perfectly. She reached out to me, we discussed what to do, and she waited for my sister to arrive. Turned out to be very minor, but I was so grateful she was extra cautious and communicative. I feel really comfortable with her caring for my Millie.”

About: Here to help you and your best buds! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. On top of that, I volunteer at dog shelters, which has given me experience with a wide range of temperaments—from shy and anxious dogs to very energetic ones. That’s helped me become really patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s behavior and needs. I love keeping dogs active and happy! Activities can include walks around the neighborhood, playtime in the yard, games like fetch or tug-of-war, and lots of attention and companionship. I always tailor activities to each dog’s energy level and personality—whether that means a long walk, light play, or just relaxing and cuddling. I have experience caring for many different dogs with a wide range of energy levels and personalities. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve worked with dogs through other platforms and feel very comfortable adjusting to each dog’s needs. If your dog is in training, I’m happy to reinforce those routines so they stay consistent! I’m especially comfortable with puppies and senior dogs. I understand the consistency and structure puppies need when it comes to routines, basic training, and reinforcing good habits. With senior dogs, I’m very gentle and mindful of their pace, mobility, and any special care instructions, including medications if needed. What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I don’t just “watch” them—I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I’m currently a part-time nursing student and usually do my schoolwork from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to take breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. Being home most of the time also allows me to stick closely to their normal routine and provide consistent care. Additionally, I work part-time in the emergency room just 5 minutes from my home, which allows me to provide consistent check-ins throughout the day or night. I’m able to take breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a fully fenced yard and a 2-year-old neutered Cockapoo named Tobey, who truly thinks every dog he meets is his best friend. He’s super friendly, playful, and loves having other pups around to keep him company. I live with my parents, who are just as obsessed with animals as I am, so your dog will basically have a whole team of people giving them attention, love, and check-ins all day long. Between all of us, your pup will never feel bored or alone! I will treat and respect your home the same way I would want someone to treat mine, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own.
