Dog Walking Longs

About: I have had animals in my life ever since i can remember. There’s never been a time i didn't have one. I am a huge dog lover but i can handle cats as well. I am currently a stay at home mom for my son. I am looking for something that will get both of us out of the house. I have a fenced in yard with 3 dogs. If you feel more comfortable i am willing to watch your babies at your home instead of mine.

“My dog loves Marie. He looks forward to her visits and is always happy to see her. We trust her to take excellent care of our dog too. It is so nice to know he is in good hands when we are away. She loves dogs and they know it!”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m great with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication routines, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout the day. Whether your dog loves long walks, cuddles on the couch, or extra patience and calm attention, I adjust to their needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented. Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! I’m currently working full time from home, but my hours are super flexible. I’m able to take many breaks. I have responsible transportation. I will follow all instructions as given. I am a very responsible pet owner and would treat your fur baby as I treat my own.

About: I have raised and trained two dogs from 8 weeks old. Additionally, I have watched many friends’ dogs over the years. I currently have one 6 year old French Bulldog that loves other dogs and can’t wait to meet yours! I am home and available to give your pup all the attention they need. Please let me know your dog’s routine and I will happily accommodate. I have a fenced in yard for security and potty breaks. Let me know your dog’s schedule and habits. I want your pup to be just as comfortable as they are at home.

About: I have always had a rapport with animals. They are drawn to me and they know they will be loved and protected when I am around them. I am also a licensed massage therapist. My work schedule is very easy to work around. I am available all hours of the evening and several hours during the daytime. When I'm with an animal I give them undivided attention. They will be walked as well as attended to and have my undivided attention when I am with them.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and have been raising my 9 year old pup since she was 8 weeks old! I’m a huge lover of animals, but I’m definitely a dog person. I’m currently on a reduced work schedule, as I own a cleaning business and am expecting my first child. With that being said, I work about 4 hours each morning Monday through Friday and I’m home the rest of the time. I have a big yard with room to roam on the anchored leads. I also have two loving and friendly dogs, aged 9 and 14, who love company! Special needs can be accommodated and crates can be utilized if necessary. Potty breaks are about every 2-3 hours but can be more frequent if necessary

About: Growing up in the animal rescue and care world, I’ve looked after everything from horses to mice. Over the years, I’ve fostered, reconditioned, and rehomed abused and abandoned animals, helping them learn to trust again. I’m experienced in animal behavior across life stages, including neonatal and senior pets. My goal is to provide every animal I meet with as much love, guidance, and attentive care as they deserve. I live on a small homestead with my husband, a stay-at-home dad and disabled veteran, and our four children. I’m a self-employed Realtor and the owner of LABZ Pet and Farm Sitting LLC, so I have the flexibility to build my schedule around my clients’ needs. I’m currently attending Unity Environmental University, working toward my Bachelor of Science in Companion Animal Behavior. My program is fully online, which means I can bring my laptop with me and easily keep up with coursework during overnight stays or extended sits. I strictly follow the guidelines and routines you provide, because you know your pets best. When no specific instructions are given, I use a thoughtful, age-appropriate schedule for dogs and cats at different life stages. In general, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged: walking and playtime, refilling food and water according to your specifications, cleaning up any messes, and providing baths when needed. I can also pick up pet supplies or groceries upon request, so you come home to happy pets and a stress-free environment.

“Alicia and Van have been a godsend!!! They committed to walking my brother's dog every morning for over 3 weeks. He is recovering from a broken hip and it has been difficult for him to walk his dog properly. We found Van and Alicia and couldn't have been happier. They truly enjoy what they do and have helped my brother is other ways too - assisting with feeding Zandi. I can't say enough wonderful things about them. The one thing i will say - is your fur-baby is in the best of hands with them and they would be lucky to have them care for them!!!!”

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. As soon as I was old enough I was the sole caretaker for our family pets. I have animals of my own and I do all the work including grooming at home. I will be 25 years young this June 2024. We have had animals since i was a baby. My first animal was a dog and have had dogs and cats my entire life. So I have taken care of animals my entire life. Family owned pets at home as well as family members pets. I am a big animal lover and can promise to take good care of your furry friends and always keep them safe and very happy. Pet care in the biggest part of my Daily routine. I take care of two dogs and five cats at my home on my own 24/7. At home I take my dogs on plenty of walk daily and I also take them to a nice dog park just down the road from my home and they love it. I am also the main person who does the bathing,nail cutting and brushing for all the animals in my home. I have a good size front and back yard that will be fenced-in hopefully this summer. I also have a cage and beds for both of my dogs. My dogs are very friendly and good with other dogs and love to play. I can assure you our dogs would have so much fun together if they are to ever be around one another. I give my dogs vitamins as well to keep them good and healthy and give treats for good behavior or for simply being too cute. My cats are also all good with other animals. I teach dogs tricks as well.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have been apart of the Rover community for around 5 years now.

About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.
