Dog Walking In McKinley Park

“Mariam has been a great dog walker for our senior dog Hannah- she is attentive, observant, caring and a great communicator. She goes above and beyond by giving our cats some attention as well and picks up on small details with our dog who is on medication which brings us such peace of mind.”

“Breanna saved the day during my week suffering from a concussion. After an initial meet and greet Winnie took to her well and Breanna even got her to walk all the way to the lake without much issue Winnie came back happy and ready to nap. THANK YOU! 10/10 Recommend”

About: I’ve take care of my friend’s dog while she’s away for traveling. My responsibilities included ensuring frequent and timely potty breaks and managing his high energy levels through structured play and walks. I strictly adhered to his feeding routine and followed all specific care instructions provided by my friend. This experience reinforced my ability to be responsible, attentive, and consistent, confirming my passion for providing reliable care for dogs. I am confident in my skills to adapt to any dog’s individual needs and maintain their comfort and routine while their owners are away. I‘m available before 9 AM in the morning and after 6 PM in the afternoon during weekdays. I’m available during weekends. I’m usually available during holidays because I’m more of a homebody and not traveling very often. I will record and memorize every specific detail and note of caution provided by the client. I treat all these key pieces of information as the main care guideline.

“Andres has been absolutely amazing! He has been amazing to work with. My pittie mix absolutely loves going for his walks with Andres. He is always on time and very professional. Would highly recommend.”

About: My family has two dogs and I was frequently put in charge of taking care of them when my parents were out of town. One of our dogs is blind at this point and has ear troubles and a bunch of other problems but he is so sweet that he’s still by far my favorite (he’s the big white floofy one if you look at my photos). But my parents live in Cleveland so now I miss my little doggo friends. As such, any new dog I sit will be showered with playtime and affection :) I currently work full time however I work from home. So, my schedule can be pretty flexible especially for mid day walks and things like that but generally after work (past 5 pm) would be ideal. There are no other pets in the house I live in but there is a nice yard to play in if I attach a leash to the porch. The house itself is also very spacious with plenty of room for a crate if need be. I can would be very flexible and respectful when using someone else’s home.

“They’ve been so great and are so helpful for a little pup! They walk her all the time and have really helped us last minute a bunch of times”

About: From a young age, I've had a special bond with dogs. My parents took in neighborhood samoyeds and newfoundlands that had been abandoned by their owners. I grew up with them, trained them, did my best to make sure their home was loving. Since my neighbors knew I was good with large dogs, I frequently dog sat for them. I quickly became an expert in leash technique, engaging play, making sure they were fed right, and just plain being there for them. I don't have any dogs right now (my apartment is way too small) but I know I'll meet that special fluffy guy when I get a bigger place. I'm available nearly all the time, as I'm not currently working and am only doing occasional volunteering in the Bitter Lake/Greenwood/Shoreline area. I have the availability of a tireless assistant! I believe in respecting a dog's boundries while also being very mindful of their needs. From years of experience I've learned to find the proper balance and give the dog the best experience possible.

On my free days, I can prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care Chauntrell gave my pup while I was away! From the moment we connected, he was communicative, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. He sent daily updates, photos, and even little notes about how my dog was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. Chauntrell was so patient and gentle with him it didn’t take long before he was completely comfortable and excited for their walks. He treated my pup like he was their own, and that means the world to me. I highly recommend Chauntrell to anyone looking for someone dependable, loving, and professional. I will absolutely be booking with him again in the future! Thank you again for everything my friend! 🐾❤️”

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and around 4 years of experience caring for cats. Over the years, I’ve helped care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for turtles, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their specific care needs. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, cleanliness, and giving pets the attention and patience they deserve. Friends, family, and people close to me have trusted me to care for their pets because I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every animal like family. I understand how important pets are, and I always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I also provide regular photo and video updates so pet parents can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student, so I have a flexible schedule outside of classes and spend a lot of my time caring for my own kitten every day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m dependable, organized, and able to make time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I make sure pets always have fresh water, clean food bowls, and a clean environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and bathroom breaks when needed. After walks or playtime, I like rewarding pets with treats (if approved by the owner) and making sure they feel relaxed and safe. I treat every pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while away.

About: i’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. i take the time to make shy or anxious pets feel safe and comfortable, and i adjust my approach depending on their energy level and needs. i’m also very reliable with routines and communication, so you can trust your pet is getting consistent care and attention. pet care is part of my everyday routine, as i currently care for two kittens with consistent feeding, cleaning, and play schedules. i’m used to planning my day around their needs, so incorporating additional pet care is something i can do reliably & consistently. when caring for pets in a client’s home, i focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. i follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific preferences your pet has. i take the time to understand each cat’s personality—whether they’re social or more independent—and adjust my approach so they feel comfortable in their own space. i also keep the home tidy and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I love caring for dogs and cats! I have had my own pets throughout my life and I’ve recently been able to provide care to my close friends’ and family’s animals—from calmer to more chaotic kitties, energetic and relaxed dogs, I love the spirit that different animals bring to my life. I’m excited for the opportunity to provide your pet with the safety, care and fun that it needs to thrive! I currently work from home apart from 2 days in office each month, so I am able to provide constant care and attention to a pet. I am active and always looking for opportunities to get outside, so I’d love to have the opportunity to go on long dog walks. I currently have no pets living in my home with me. I have a partially fenced backyard and I live in a very walkable neighborhood, near a fenced in open dog park.
