Dog Walking McClellan Park

About: As an educator with a bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, caregiving, patience, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am. I'm dependable, attentive, and comfortable pet sitting, feeding, walking, playing with pets, following detailed routines, and providing plenty of companionship and affection. I'm also completely comfortable with the less glamorous parts of pet care, including cleaning up poop and other messes, because I know that's simply part of keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I've had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pet and your home while you're away. While I'm not able to have a pet of my own right now, I would love the opportunity to give that same care, attention, and affection to yours. I look forward to getting to know your pet, making them feel comfortable and loved, and caring for them as if they were my own. 🐾 My schedule allows me to provide pet care on weekends and during times when I'm not working. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting, and I do my best to work with each pet owner's routine and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I take caring for someone's pet and being trusted in their home seriously. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, and any special preferences their pet may have. I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, and the pet's surroundings to help keep them safe and secure. I also make sure to clean up after pets and leave the home tidy, because I believe respecting someone's home is just as important as providing loving and dependable care for their pet.

About: Loved and cared for two puppies, potty trained them and how to sit and shake. Currently caring for our second chihuahua that is 10 y/o I am currently taking classes on the weekdays for a Personal Training program—which is really flexible. The weekends will be needed for a second job. Treating every pet and home like my own, I follow routines closely by keeping doors locked, sending photo updates, and staying responsive throughout your trip.

About: I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals with the same love and attention we give to family. With years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs—from puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special attention. I have also rescued and rehabilitated dogs and cats, ensuring they received the care, grooming, and affection needed to thrive before finding their forever homes. I’m currently available throughout the week and offer flexible scheduling to meet your pet’s needs. Beginning August 22, I’ll be attending college, so there will be certain days and times when I have classes. Outside of my class schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable care and will communicate my availability clearly to ensure we find a schedule that works well for you and your pet. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or weekend services, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and family-oriented environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. My home includes my 3-year-old daughter, 7-month-old son, one friendly small dog, and three cats, so I ask that any pets staying with us are comfortable around children and other animals. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I started walking. I currently have a beautiful bengal named nova and a tiny chihuahua named lucky. I used to dog sit and help out with my neighbors senior dog as well. I have looked after my friend’s animals for years. All dogs are puppies to me no matter the size or age! I currently am a stay at home mom looking for work to make a little money doing something I love and that means spending time with animals! I am willing to be flexible and extend what hours I am available if discussed ahead of time. I would love to do walks and enjoy your fur babies to help people. I have always been very sure to make sure all gates/fences are closed, all doors are closed, pets are accounted for and making sure meds are dispersed correctly. Your pets are safe with me.

About: I’ve grown up with (and pet sat) tons of different animals! I can work with dogs, cats, horses, goats/sheep, birds, reptiles, rodents, you name it! Cool with feeding, watering, potty breaks, administering medicines, cleaning, etc. I’ve been doing dog training for about two years now, and am comfortable working with fearful/reactive animals too. Tons of experience across all fields! I’m a part-time college student with a lot of time on my hands! I think pets deserve all the love and attention I can provide for them, and I’m happy to do just that. Following routines is my jam! Feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, just let me know what you and your furry friends prefer and I’m happy to follow your lead!

About: Hello fellow pet parents! My name is Emily, and I am thrilled to offer a safe, fun, and reliable home-away-from-home for your beloved four-legged family members. As a passionate animal lover, I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals—they are cherished members of the family who deserve the absolute best care, attention, and affection. Whether your pet is an energetic ball of fluff who needs to burn off some energy, or a sweet senior soul who just wants a quiet cuddle on the couch, I tailor my care to meet their unique personality and routine! 🐕 Services Provided & Activities When your pet is with me, their day will be filled with structure, safety, and a whole lot of fun. The services I provide are fully customizable, but a typical day of care or visit often includes: Tailored Exercise & Neighborhood Walks: Active walks to explore local spots, sniff all the good trails, and get some great fresh air. Engaging Playtime & Mental Stimulation: From classic games of fetch to interactive toys, I love keeping pets mentally and physically sharp. Cozy Cuddle Time & Companionship: Plenty of belly rubs, ear scratches, and relaxing downtime to ensure they feel entirely safe, secure, and loved. Routine Maintenance: Timely feeding, refreshing water bowls, administering any required medications, and ensuring a clean environment (including keeping litter boxes spotless for feline friends). Daily Photo Updates: I love capturing great candid moments! You can expect regular, bright photo and text updates so you can see exactly how much fun your pet is having while you're away. 📚 My Pet Care Experience I have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, ranging from high-energy dogs to independent, sweet cats. My background includes managing different temperaments, understanding animal body language, and adhering strictly to specific dietary and medical routines. Having my own beloved pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and vigilance. I treat every single animal in my care with the exact same level of devotion, respect, and safety that I demand for my own furry family. From puppy training basics to gentle senior care, I’ve got it covered! 📅 Availability & Daily Routine I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I pride myself on being highly present and attentive. My Schedule: I manage my professional responsibilities with an incredibly flexible schedule that allows me to put your pet's needs first. Time Spent with Your Pet: Because I have excellent control over my daily calendar, your pet will never be an afterthought. I am able to dedicate significant chunks of the day to direct interaction, frequent potty breaks, and structured play. Evenings & Weekends: I have fantastic availability for overnight stays, weekend boarding, or dedicated evening drop-ins, ensuring that your pet maintains their normal routine without disruption. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! Feel free to reach out with any questions, details about your pet's specific quirks, or to schedule a meet-and-greet. Let’s give your pet the best day ever! 🐶🐱✨ Pet care naturally fits into my everyday life because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I’m used to building my day around routines like walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels, including puppies who need extra attention and consistency. I’m home enough to provide regular care, supervision, and companionship, and I enjoy being active, so walks and exercise are an easy part of my routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions closely and keep their normal routine as stress-free and familiar as possible while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well being will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I make sure every pet is supervised carefully, kept in a safe environment, and cared for according to their individual needs and routine. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, eating habits, and any signs that a pet may be stressed or uncomfortable so I can respond quickly if something seems off. I believe in clear communication and will always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own pet. My goal is to create a safe, positive experience for both pets and their owners every time.

I Iprovide pet care for my two dogs on a daily basis and will provide are for the dogs I watch according to owners instructions. I want my clients dog to feel as comfortable as they do at home providing love and care. I have a fenced in yard back and front. There are no children living in my house so my home is peaceful and quiet.

“Jennifer was fantastic! She took great care of my pups, one of whom is very high strung. When we got home after a short trip out of town, the dogs were the least stressed they'd ever been after being separated from us. Jennifer stayed in touch regularly, sent lots of photos, and was reliable and communicative. She was also very flexible when I needed to adjust the visit times at the last minute. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi there! I love animals and have a cat. I’m not able to have a dog where I live but would if I could. I enjoy caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Being with animals brings me so much joy and peace. I’ve been a pet sitter for about 3 years. I have taken care of cats and dogs of all temperaments and some with a history of trauma.
