Dev's Dog Walking and Pet Sitting
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Devon, an animal lover with a passion for helping others and being outside in nature. I grew up with many different breeds of cats and dogs, and I spent the last two summers as a dog walker and pet sitter. I know how hard it is to leave town, or to go to work, without your best friend with you, but you won't ever have to worry about your pets when they're with me, because I will always give them my full attention and love! A fun fact about me is that one of my hobbies is photography, and I love to take photos of animals. I'm very excited to meet you and your furry friends!
Reviews
Devon was fantastic as always!
I was very nervous about using an app and having a stranger in my home, but Devon was fantastic. I’ll use her again for sure.
She is best to walk little dogs only that are well behaved, has no sense on how to handle a dog when it gets excited and to weak to walk any dog of 12 lbs. over that. Used her then she just quit with no notice because she said my dog wanted to jump on people, well then walk across the street! Really no street smarts and no work ethic to just quit and leave a dog hanging with no walks. Shame on her!
Devon was a wonderful weekend care-taker for our puppy, Roger! He was happy (and tired!) when we got home. Devon took him for daily walks and sent pictures a couple times each day. Our home was just as we left it when we returned. We will definitely reach out to Devon again for house-sitting needs in the future.

Safety, trust & environment
I have my own cat and dog at home - Freya and Oliver. They are used to so much love and attention from me through walks, playtime, brushing, or treats. When I take care of your pet I will treat them as if they were my own. However, I will follow any instructions you may have for diet, medications or anything else.
Information Devon R. would like to know about your pet
I love all kinds of dogs so I'm open to pet sitting or walking any breed, but I would like to know if the dog is aggressive or needs any special attention or treatment.
A typical day
I always looks for trails and/or parks that are pet friendly unless the dog doesn't do well around other dogs. In that situation, I usually will walk around the dog's neighborhood and go to the opposite side of the street if I see another dog. If I go to the park, I like to play fetch with the pup or pups I'm with. For home visits, I will play with any toys that the dog has available.

I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to look after your pets! I make my own schedule so I am very flexible.
