Dog Walkers in Lochwood, DE

“Kelly was flexible with our schedule and showed up on time for the walk and kept our dog company for the full hour. Left a very detailed note about what they did and lots of pictures!”

About: I worked at a dog kennel for 2 years, where i was in charge of feeding, potty breaks, medicine (if applicable), cleaning kennels, bonding time, bathes (wet/dry), and brushing. I have been around animals my whole life and have always had a pet, even if it was something small like a fish. I’m currently unemployed at the moment, so i’ll have abundant time to watch your beloved pets! I’m available anytime, any day with the exception of Wednesday, so feel free to reach out! I have a fenced in yard where i let my four dogs out freely to do their business and get their energy out, while I get their food bowls ready and check their water. As for watching dogs, I will follow the instructions provided to ensure the dog is safe and in routine for when the owner returns home. Whether the dog needs to be walked with a leash, or left in a crate for the night, none of these would be a problem

“Kristin and Craig were prompt, courteous and clearly love dogs! We had a fantastic meet & greet the day before the dog walking appt and our golden just loved them! Will definitely use them in future!”

“Nicola went above and beyond with my crazy dog mom requests! She sent me pictures every single walk and made sure my spoiled fur baby who likes to go on hungry strikes when we leave for any period of time, had plenty of time to eat her food! 10/10 would absolutely book Nicola again for any reason!!!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and reliability I bring to every pet I work with. I truly treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I’m very patient, attentive to behavior changes, and understand how important consistency and trust are for both pets and owners. I enjoy staying active, so I love making walks engaging and enjoyable while still tailoring the pace and activity level to each dog’s needs and personality. Communication is also very important to me, and I make sure owners feel updated and reassured every step of the way. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve rather than rushing through visits. 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 instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any special preferences or behaviors. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision while also keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

“It was great to be able to get away for the day and it would not have been possible without Christina watching my fur baby. Thank you so much.”

“I could not be happier with a dog care person than I am with Paula. She's dedicated, completely reliable and my miniature schnauzer fell immediately in love with her. (Not his typical behavior)”

About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals including cats, dogs, birds, bunnies, fish, and mice! I love all animals and I believe they all deserve the best possible care we can provide! I’m currently a stay at home mom with two adult children and one child in kindergarten! I will have plenty of time to play with and care for your fur (or feather or scale or what have you!) babies! I have a small dog and a cat that are friendly and would get along well with other animals. I enjoy walking pets and cuddling as well!

About: My husband, kids and I love dogs! We have had dogs our whole life. Our dog Rusty is a Coast Guard dog so is used to having friends stay over while Mark's Coast Guard members are away visiting family. We love animals. We are dependable, fit, and loyal and work as a team to care for your sweet one. My husband and I both work part - time from home and work as team for Rover. We have one dog! We LOVE animals and are available to walk, board, or come to your house and care for animals. If a pet stays, we will put our pup, Rusty in his cage at night for safety. We do have 2 small children who love animals! We have a very large back yard that is not fenced but is private. Our neighborhood has very little traffic so we will walk your dog often! We will follow your routine. We will give your pet several long walks and take him or her out as much as you need. We have a big back yard if it's raining or inclement weather and your pet doesn't want to go out. We give lots of love and many walks to pets. We have a comfortable home and your pet can feel safe with us. We lookg forward to being in your home as well and making your pet feel secure.

“Awesome job!! Thank you”

About: I have been taking care of my families pets since I was 13. Spending time with animals is one of the best ways to spend a day, especially when meeting new furry friends! I am currently working a serving position over the summer during my summer break from college, so my schedule can fluctuate, but mainly revolves around evening shifts. I am very good at communicating when I am available or not, and am totally okay with dedicating my days off to spend time with your pets! Preferably, I would like to care for animals in your own home, as I have two cats at home who are okay with other cats, but not so much bigger/more active dogs. I have a car so I am able to transport your pets and I to and from walks, homes, etc.

About: I have had a variety of pets of all ages with some needing special care. I enjoy walks, playtime and snuggles from fur babies. I have flexibility and can work with your schedules to give the proper care to your pets. I am currently working a casual job and would like to fill more of my time with what brings me joy which are animals. I only have my older cat but enjoy dogs of all sizes, other cats; I have fed fish, small reptiles, and horses. I do travel but have flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a home where I can close off play areas if needed. I can provide litter boxes separately if needed and clean out as needed. I am happy to listen to your requests and concerns and follow your routine for your pets. I am comfortable going to your home where your pets are ‘at home’ and walk, feed and play with them in their own setting.

About: FYI--Recently retired from the Federal Government. I did a Katrina mission to offer counseling to those who lost their homes. However, I was asked to volunteer in a pet shelter because the pets were abandoned due to the crisis at hand. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I figured I could do it, if I didn't look the pets straight in the eye (to prevent the heartbreak and the tears from flowing). Well, one little doggie who was in the corner of her pen shaking and shivering, grabbed ahold of my ankle as I was walking out of her pen (after cleaning it and feeding and watering her) and she wouldn't let go. She dragged her little butt along the concrete flooring as I tried to close the gate. I broke down into tears immediately and said "okay, I'll take you home with me and the cat in the pen next to you". Yes, I rescued them both... Or should I say they rescued me..from Empty Nest Syndrome. They have brought so much love into my life! My Mississippi Mud Pie (Boston Terrier) has now gone to Doggie Heaven and I want to provide love to other's pets in honor of her memory. My schedule has recently opened up more since retiring from the Federal Government, and I have a lot of time to devote to other's pets and animal care. When a dog is in my care, I provide very frequent walks and cater to your pet throughout the entire time they are with me. I like keeping animals happy and content. I provide a safe, trusting and caring environment. I am very nurturing and provide excellent care and attention. I am very attentive of animals needs.

“Chelsea was awesome. 👏 She paid careful attention to Winston and was patient with him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with a new person. She followed all my instructions and took care of our baby. Will use her anytime I need help with Winston in the future.”

About: With at least 15 years of experience I have a genuine love for animals. Now retired from 32 years in the public school system as a Speech/Language Pathologist, my days are filled with ample time for walks, ensuring your pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Compassionate and caring, I approach each furry friend with a heart full of warmth. I find joy in making our time together not just safe, but also fun-filled, ensuring a happy and healthy experience for your pets. I am a compassionate and caring individual who finds joy in providing love and attention to animals. My love for animals makes this more than a job-it's a fulfilling and enjoyable endeavor. Walking is not just a task but a joy for me, as it allows me to combine my passion for animals with staying active. My husband and I do not have any pets currently, as we lost our second corgi two years ago. It's been difficult, but we are searching for the next corgi to join our family! As a retiree, I've found that incorporating pet care into my daily routine brings a wonderful sense of purpose and joy. From morning walks to playtime in the afternoons, taking care of pets keeps me active, engaged, and surrounded by unconditional love. It's a fulfilling and rewarding way to structure my days, providing companionship for both me and my furry friends. I am generally available from 8am through 11pm. Most weekends are free for me, so don't hesitate to reach out if you need someone during the weekends. When caring for you pets in your home, I adhere to established routines, ensuring regular feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, providing ample playtime and exercise, and offering plenty of affection. I also maintain open communication with the pet owners to understand specific needs, preferences, and any special instruction. The goal is to offer personalized care that reflects the love and attention the pets receive in their own home, creating a stress-free and enjoyable experience for them.

About: I absolutely love animals- both my own and other families pets! I moved to Lewes a few years ago from New Jersey and love being active outside and by the beach. My family and I adopted a dog a few years ago and she has brought so much joy to our family. I am very flexible with my daily schedule and around on most weekends and holidays. I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as overnights. I am good with medications and open to any specific needs your pet might have. My cat and dog both have kidney disease, so I have great experience with both oral and injectable medications.
