Dog Walking Lone Oak

“Jessica was very polite and prompt. She took my dog for a run/walk and kept a pace that was comfortable for her (my dog). My dog came home happy and tired. I will definitely be hiring her again and would 10/10 recommend her.”

“Hal took the time to really understand my dog's needs. He was always professional and very easy to work with. He sent me updates every time he walked Charleigh, and let me know when she was having an off day, which is very important to me as a senior dog owner. Charleigh also loved him!! I highly recommend Hal for taking care of your pet.”

About: As a deeply empathetic and compassionate mental health professional, I am dedicated to providing exceptional pet sitting services that cater to the emotional and physical well-being of your pets. With a Doctorate degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Counseling with internship training in animal-assisted modalities, I bring a unique blend of expert care and emotional insight to my role. Throughout my post-graduate internship, I gained invaluable experience working with therapy animals to assist children and adults, enhancing their emotional and social well-being. This role not only deepened my expertise in animal behavior and welfare but also reinforced my natural inclinations for empathy and understanding, allowing me to connect with animals in a profound and meaningful way. In my professional pet sitting services, I apply these traits by ensuring each pet receives nurturing attention, recognizing their individual needs and adjusting care accordingly. I strive to create a comforting and stimulating environment, where your pets feel understood, cared for, and safe. I am prepared for both short-term and long-term assignments, passionately committed to offering your pets a loving and attentive experience. I work remotely and have a moderately flexible schedule with a few set tasks throughout. Depending on location and need, I can be somewhat flexible. I prioritize creating a nurturing and safe environment whether at my home or a client's home. I leverage my background in psychology and animal-assisted therapy to understand and cater to the unique emotional and physical needs of each pet. This includes maintaining a structured routine with regular feeding, exercise, and playtime to keep pets active and engaged. I also provide constant companionship and emotional support, ensuring that pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved in their temporary environment. My approach is flexible and adaptable, designed to meet the specific requirements of each pet and the preferences of their owners.

“Dominique is wonderful! She did a great job caring for our two puppies. Her communication was great, couldn't have asked for anyone better to help us out. She was kind, reliable and went above & beyond. High recommend booking her! We will be using her services again!”

About: Hi, I'm Kirstie (pronounced "curse-tea"). I'm a huge animal lover and have taken care of my own and other people's cats and dogs since I was a child. I grew up on a farm with goats, indoor cats and barn cats, so I'm experienced with a variety of animals, including atypical ones. I'm very good with cats of all personalities especially and administering their medications. I'm trustworthy, dependable, and capable of following complex instructions. I hope you'll choose me to care for your pets. :) I'm also an artist and paint custom pet portraits, let me know if you'd like to learn more! I own my own small business and create my own schedule, which offers me lots of flexibility. I can be made available most days, please reach out for inquiries. I'm a very clean and tidy person and will be respectful of your home and leaving it the same, (or better :) ) than I found it.

“I’m so glad to have found Justin to take care of my boy! He and his dogs are really great with Fonzie and it’s such a relief knowing he’s in such good hands.”

About: I’ve raised my Old English Sheepdog since he was a puppy, so I know firsthand how much love and patience dogs need at every stage of life. From playful pups to dogs who need a little extra care, I’m comfortable handling it all. I’m especially experienced with big breeds and dogs with allergies, so I’m used to giving meds, keeping routines, and making sure pups feel happy and safe. I’ll treat your dog like family and give them the same love and attention I give my own. I’m currently a student and have a part time job but I’m looking for something with more flexibility and that keeps me more active too. I can care for your pet in your home and area. I can provide walks, playtime, and attention while your pet stays in a familiar, comfortable environment. I focus on keeping routines consistent, giving lots of love and attention, and making sure your furry friend feels safe and happy while you’re away.

About: Over the years I have walked dogs of all sizes and baby sat many houses for family and friends. I grow up on a farm. I have trained horses and owned pretty much every farm animal out there. I am not afraid of a challenge. I am excited to expand my services to other people. I enjoy volunteering at the local SPCA for time to time. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. I have never tried these skills on a animal and hopefully I will never have to try them out. I have worked in several daycare over the years and am currently a nanny. People trust me with their kids so I am confident in my ability to handle your pets. Pets are family as well.

About: I absolutely adore both senior dogs and young puppies that might need extra attention, and have experience with both! I also have experience administering medication and have worked with elderly dogs who need very detailed attention❤️ I’m currently a college student working full time, but I am extremely flexible and can fit in time always throughout my days. I am available for almost all times of day excluding when I am working! I am unable to keep dogs here with me as I am living on campus, but I have experience house sitting along with dog sitting and also have house keeping experience if that is something of interest!

“Emily did a great job on taking Pei for a walk while I am moving in! Pei (who is generally about) went along with Emily like they’ve been besties for a while. 😁”

I offer walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and overnight care, tailored to each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I prioritize positive reinforcement, secure environments, and following your care instructions. I’ll treat your pet and home with patience and respect.

“Shamon was awesome! She gave me constant updates and walked my dog. I am so pleased! I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Kelly is great! I had never used a dog walker before, but we live in an apartment now and my roommate can't handle my dog and the stairs. While I was out of town, Kelly came by each day and sent me detailed little reports with pictures. I really appreciated how communicative she was; it helped relieve my anxiety about my dog while I was on vacation. I will definitely use her in the future!”
