Dog Walking Maverick Creek

About: I grew up with pets as part of my family, which taught me from an early age how to care for them with patience, consistency, and respect. Being around dogs and cats my whole life helped me learn how to read their body language, understand their routines, and respond to their individual needs, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or extra reassurance. I have a special place in my heart for those sweet babies with the silver speckles. I had a senior cat I lost not long ago, and I also have experience with senior dogs that have special needs. I, of course, enjoy the youngins too! I'm happy to care for pets of all ages, as well as any pets with special needs. The only pets I would have to decline are dogs with aggression or aggressive tendencies. Please see my requested important information section with further details. I have recently started a new part time job, but the time I’m not working, I love to meet some new furry friends! I am happy to accept house sits any days, as long as it is okay that I am gone for 4-6 hours at a time for my job. I also tend to take some drop ins and walks occasionally while house sitting where I would be gone for up to 2 hours at a time. Otherwise, I intend to spend most of my time at your home taking care of your pet. I prioritize the pets I care for, so I always ensure they’re well taken care of during my time with them- especially making sure they are set if I will be leaving the home for hours at a time, and then showering them with all of the love and attention once I return. For arrival times to house sits, as well as drop-in and walk times, I ask for flexibility. I am happy to work around my part-time job schedule to care for your pets to the highest standard on any day, but my availability for certain times on different days of the week may vary. I focus on providing calm, attentive care that keeps pets comfortable in their own environment. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, making adjustments to ensure they feel safe and at ease while their owner is away. Cleanliness, consistency, and clear communication are important to me, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I am happy to provide consistent picture updates of your pets and keep in active communication with you. I also strive to leave a home as clean (if not cleaner) than I found it for all of my services.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was about 10 years old. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for and walk their beloved pets. I have experience working with animals of all ages, from tiny kittens to playful puppies, and I always strive to provide them with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own pets. My goal is to ensure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while in my care. I will be a freshman at UTSA in the fall, so pet care fits well into my schedule. I am available in between classes, and on days when I do not have classes I have even more flexibility to provide dependable care, walks, feeding, and attention for pets. I prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. Whether I am caring for a pet in my client’s home or providing visits throughout the day, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. I also keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime to ensure they remain safe at all times. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

“Veronica did an excellent job walking our two pups while I was away. She did an excellent job communicating with us and ensured we always got a card after each walk.”

“Ryan was fantastic! He walked my dog every day for two weeks over the holidays and was always on time with excellent communication. I loved getting photo updates after each walk, it gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. I’ll definitely be using him again next time we travel, and I highly recommend him.”

Elizabeth G.

“We love Marla, she takes such good care of our pup and she is very accommodating to our changing schedule! It puts our minds at ease to know someone comes to visit Layla while we are at work and we know she looks forward to Marla’s visits :)”

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my entire life, giving me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and routines. I treat every dog I care for as if they were my own—providing plenty of love, attention, patience, and dependable care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I’m committed to making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am able to work full-time day or night for whatever needs your furry friends may have! I am devoted to giving your pets all the loving care that they need! I care for pets in their own home by following their normal routine, keeping their space clean and safe, and giving them plenty of attention and love—just like their owners would.

“Jessica has been wonderful with my two dogs. She comes on time and takes them on. 30 minute walk. She is flexible and my dogs are happy when they come home.”

About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, an 18-year-old animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets and helping with family pets. I’ve had my cat since 2019 and my dog since 2024, so I understand the daily responsibility, patience, and attention that pets need to stay happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own pets, I frequently watch over my family’s dogs, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship while their owners are away. I know every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the same kindness and care I’d want for my own pets. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine. I make time each day to feed my pets, refresh their water, clean my cat’s litter box, take my dog outside for walks and bathroom breaks, and spend quality time playing with and giving them attention. Caring for animals has taught me responsibility, consistency, and patience, and I enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Because pet care is something I already do every day, I understand how important it is to stick to each pet’s routine and provide dependable care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or litter box cleaning, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy, and I’ll keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels loved while their family is away.

“Hector treats each dog as his own while walking them. I had someone's loose dog attack my own and Hector protected my fur baby as if he were his own. He loves and protects him wholly each time Hector takes him out. Look no further - there is no better dog walker available in the city right now.”

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to older dogs needing extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with different routines and personalities, and I always focus on keeping pets safe, calm, and well cared for. I’m best suited for clients who can book in advance or have some flexibility with timing. I keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so you can rely on dependable, attentive care and regular updates while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible summer schedule and experience balancing pet care alongside classes and part-time work. I’m able to plan my days to ensure pets receive consistent care, including visits before and after other commitments. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific routines. I also prefer when owners leave a written list of instructions or daily routine details, as it helps me provide the most consistent and personalized care for each pet. I always keep owners updated and send photos during every visit so you can see how your pet is doing. My priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I would walk families dogs and care for their pets! Cats are included. I try to spend time outside every day and walking your dog would be the perfect addition to my daily life. I work a flexible job so house sitting will fit in well! I will always be mindful to follow house guidelines and pet guidelines. I will use discernment in situations if needed and make sure that your pet is getting the love they need!

About: I've grown up around different animals in my home. The most common being dogs with their sizes ranging from a small chihuahua to a large dog who was a mixed breed. Cats were also included in our household, one in particular being quite feisty yet well cared for. Within that household, there were also birds and turtles. I also volunteered at an animal sanctuary for a while so I do have some experience in dealing with the more bizarre kinds of animals as well. I’m currently in the middle of working on my thesis for my master’s degree. Fortunately I’m at a state where my time is quite malleable as long as I’m notified within reason. I did move out of my hometown, so I am currently not caring for any pets which does allow for more free time. As such, I am able to care for most animals at a flexible rate. I can give company to any pet. If necessary, I can help crate them or give other proper care for them. Back home I’ve helped crate and transport my dogs and cat to the vet. When there was thunder one of my dogs was terrified of the sound, so normally we would wrap a blanket or towel around them and hold them to help comfort the little doggy for a while.

About: I've always loved animals of any kind! Multiple of my family members have asked and paid me to either watch their own pets while on vacation- or sometimes even other people's pets (neighbors, co-workers, friends). I also have my own red-footed tortoise, so I am familiar with reptile care! I am in school, so I will be working part time. I get out of school every day around noon! I would be available early in the mornings, late afternoons and evenings (working around my work schedule), and weekends! I will follow whatever house/pet rules you have. It is your home, so whatever you say, goes! I can crate any pets, ensure doors and/or gates are secure, etc.

About: I’ve been caring for family and friends’ fur babies since I was in middle school, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with multiple dogs, including Pitbulls and Beagles, and I’m currently a proud pet parent to Chica, my mixed Husky, whom I’ve raised since she was 2 months old. She’s now 8 years old! I’ve also cared for three cats, raising them from kittens since 2021. Through my experience, I’ve become comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, personalities, and ages. I’m also experienced with administering medications to both dogs and cats when needed. Currently am working full time, 4 days a week. My current schedule gives me availability Friday nights through Monday evening. So I’m available for all your weekend plans ((: I’m able to care for you pets whichever way is best for you! I’m comfortable with pets being left out, crate trained and all in between. At home I leave my girl out so she loves to roam around and be nosy!

About: Hi! I’m Fernanda. I care for a maximum of two dogs per day to give each one my full attention and love. I spend 24 hours a day with them (yes, 24!) and take them to different parks so they can explore, sniff around, and have fun. Their walk schedule is pretty active: 5am, 10pm, 3pm, 7pm, and 11:30pm — because there's never a dull moment here! I also send two photos and one video daily, so you can feel at ease seeing how happy and comfortable your pup is. Is your dog shy or needs their own space? No problem! I can keep them separated from my own dogs. If they have trouble sleeping alone, I’ll stay close so they feel safe. They’re welcome on the couch, on the bed, and of course, they’ll receive all the love, patience, and cuddles they need to feel at home. Important: I speak only Spanish, but my husband speaks both Spanish and English — so if you need to communicate in English, we’ve got you covered! I provide 24/7 care for your dog, with daily walks to parks, regular updates, and lots of love and attention in a safe, homely environment. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of space to play. I provide 24/7 supervision, daily walks, and constant updates.

About: I have experience with all sorts of dogs and animals all ages. I do pretty well with younger dogs and can keep up with them. I enjoy doing short walks with senior pets as well! I’m a college student with a passion for spending time with animals! Alongside my studies, I’m looking to earn a little extra while staying active and doing something I love. My schedule is very flexible, so feel free to book a time that works best for you. I’m also more than happy to wake up early for pet care!! ☺️☀️ I provide attentive and compassionate care during each visit, whether I'm letting pets outside, taking them on walks, or simply checking in. I always ensure they have fresh water, and I prepare an extra bowl just in case. Feeding routines are followed exactly as instructed by the owner, and I take time during our initial meeting to ask thoughtful questions and address any concerns upfront. I’m mindful of each pet’s unique needs and accommodations, and I care for them with the same love and responsibility I’d give my own. 🤍

About: Hi y’all! I’m Jackson, and I am a huge animal lover. I’ve lived with at least 2 dogs my entire life, and I now have 3 dogs waiting for me back home in Houston. My animals received many, many walks while under my care. I’ve dog sat for countless neighbors, family friends, and strangers, and I’m no stranger to scoopin’ some poop. My oldest pooch was 18 years old, and I’m more than aware of the stubbornness that age brings along. I’ve raised many puppies too, so I’m familiar with the nuance of tender yet firm care. I’d love to get to know and provide top-notch care for your animals, if you’d let me! I am a full time student at UTSA. I have class on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends are more than often available. I try to visit home once a month to spend time with my family, including my dogs, so I’d love to fill this canine void I experience here in San Antonio. I have been the owner and the stranger to untrusting dogs, so I’ve gathered the best way to approach these kind of animals from both sides. I have no issue with getting on their level, exercising patience, or crating. I pick up on mannerisms and comfort levels easily, and I can adapt to the needs of each animal efficiently.

“Lindsay did an excellent job with our goldendoodles. She is on time and is good about updating us with the Rover card and lots of pictures of their walk. The pups are always happy and well-exercised on the days that she comes!”
