Dog Walking McFerrin Park

About: I have always had dogs growing up! I helped take care of our elderly dog, giving him medicine and helping him up/down the stairs before he passed. And after him, we got 2 CRAZY puppies so I have helped with all stages when it comes to dogs! My schedule is very open this summer, so I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule, whether you need care during the week, on weekends, or at the last minute whenever possible. I am happy to follow any instructions you give me! I know how important it is for your animals to be cared for while you are gone. I love going on walks, so adding a furry companion would be perfect!

“Teresa is the best! She communicates clearly and is always prompt with her responses, making sure I’m kept in the loop when she takes my dog, Marley, for walks. Marley is always excited to see her, and she’s become a familiar face he truly looks forward to. We love Teresa!”

About: I have a knack for winning over pets, especially the anxious or nervous ones. I like to be a safe, unconditionally loving place for each and every one of them. I am a life coach, so I have a very fluid schedule with a lot of gaps. Care for animals easily fits into my schedule, or should I say, can easily match their schedule :) I treat your home (and your pets) as you would. There's a good chance your home would be even a little tidier after I leave. I want you to have the same, "ah, it's so nice to trust this person" feel I would want.

“Laura is our regular dog walker. She's wonderfully responsible and consistent and a great communicator. I never have to worry that my older dog is in good hands.”

About: I’ve taken care of many cats and been a previous cat owner. I haven’t owned a dog in a while but I’ve taken care of many in my time! I am a professional musician and a graduate student! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help you further baby as much as needed! I tend to care as the client needs! I’ll take and send photos to you and will be sure to make sure they feel safe and are taken care of!

“Solid, will hire again!”

“Anna went above and beyond while caring for my dog. When my dog stepped on a bee, she stayed calm, removed the stinger right away, and kept me informed throughout. Her quick thinking and compassion made a stressful situation feel manageable, and I’m so grateful to have someone who cares for my dog like her own!”

About: I have been pet sitting for friends, family members, and neighbors since I was in middle school. I have also always been a regular volunteer at the animal shelters, so I have experience with all kinds of dog personalities, behaviors, and activity levels. I have trained all my dogs myself so if you are looking for help with a puppy/newly adopted dog, I’d love to help encourage those good behaviors while you are away! I work a pretty relaxed, work from home schedule. I am extremely active so would love to help you out with walks while you are at work, but would also love some couch potato company if that’s what your pet is into! Currently not available for any new walk/drop in requests Mondays & Wednesdays from 11-2. For drop-in visits, I will always take the time to figure out what your pet needs, and never make them feel rushed! For walks, I will cater our time to whatever your pet is looking for, whether that is as much distance as possible or as many stops and sniffs as possible! The end goal is your pet coming home happy and healthy and I’m more than happy to do whatever that takes!

About: Have been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and many different breeds across the years. Labs, setters, and various shepherds. I also owned a rabbit growing up and have cared for horses. I work fully remotely and have a flexible schedule. I can easily stop for bathroom breaks while housesitting, go on walks during the day, or work remotely anywhere with wifi. I love to read and have put a lot of time into understanding dog body language, respectful touch for pets, and also just love to see them happy and content. Any dog I care for I would treat as my own.

“Ally is fantastic! She walked my dog and my mom’s dog while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. She came to meet our dog beforehand and was extremely professional and nice. We had such peace of mind on our vacation knowing Ally was giving Finn, consistent, good walks! We will absolutely be using her again.”

“Morgan was able to help out on short notice and took great care of our dog, plus excellent communication!”

Gabe D.

“Kirstie is amazing. She has great energy and is very friendly. Kona took to her immediately and she treated him like he was her own dog. I was very impressed with how fast Kona and Kirstie connected. She was able to quickly pick up the commands and rules Kona follows and we felt comfortable leaving our dog in such good hands.”

David M.

“I can’t say enough good things! Alexandra is the ultimate dog Walker! My dog is a pitt mix and she has lots of energy. She needed someone to walk her daily while I am in the office. Alexandra treats her so well and my dog loves her and I can tell it makes a HUGE different in my dogs day. Don’t hesitate to book Alexandra! She is trustworthy, kind and goes above and beyond for my dog. I will use her forever!”

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs ranging from puppy/kitten to senior! I have experience with many different breeds and can adapt to your needs. I grew up with 3 cats & a golden retriever and currently have a kitty of my own. I am very active so I love to go for long walks and play, but I also love to cuddle and chill out. I’ve been looking after animals since I was young and would love to walk, feed, bathe, and love on your baby! I am currently a university student on break with a part time job so I have time for frequent visits and am very flexible with my schedule. I have house sat for neighbors and friends throughout the last few years and am very familiar with staying in others homes. One of my biggest priorities is safety of both your home and your pets. I will make sure to lock doors, turn off lights, and clean up after pets and myself. I am open to day visits or overnight stays!
