Dog Walking Mercerville

About: I go the extra mile for the dogs in my care. I have over 12 years experience fostering dogs with special medical needs so giving medications or IV fluids is not an issue. I only feed holistic food and treats and purchase toys made in the USA. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I love to exercise and run so if your dog is active, I am the sitter for you. My own pets are very friendly to other dogs I can separate your dogs from my own. My cats and caged pets are kept away from the dogs so interaction is not an issue if your dog does not like them. I have had dogs and cats for over 40 years and have excellent references from adopters and current clients.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. From playful puppies to senior pets needing a little extra patience and attention, I’ve cared for them all—and I truly treat every animal like family. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a fun, energizing walk or a calm, reassuring visit, I adjust my care to fit your pet’s unique personality and needs. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication (if needed), and lots of affection and attention. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. I’d be honored to care for your pet as if they were my own! I'm currently working part-time on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I can usually pet walk/drop in or pet sit on the other days. I prefer to care for pets in their own environment because that's where they feel most comfortable. The safety of your pet is the most important thing to me.

About: I am an animal lover and have had pets my whole life that I have taken care of. I currently have a dog and cat of my own and I have owned freshwater tanks, horses, a leopard gecko, and have provided care for numerous animals in their homes as well for others. My animals take oral medications so I am familiar with specialty care and am comfortable providing the same to your furry (or otherwise!) family members. I have also worked in a holistic pet store with a focus on healthy nutrition for cats and dogs. I ride horses and have since I was 7 years old competing in ApHC national and world shows. I have provided medical needs to horses as well! I am currently working part-time, so I am available for drop in visits and walks each day of the week including weekends. I can do early mornings in very unique circumstances. I am unable to care for additional pets in my own home however, I am available to do visits to your home multiple times a day with updates to you so you feel comfortable leaving your pet for an extended period of time.

About: I've got a lot of experience with pet care, especially with dogs. What makes me stand out as a sitter is my dedication to their well-being and ensuring they feel loved and safe. I specialize in training puppies and providing excellent senior care for older dogs. I believe that every dog deserves the best care possible, and I strive to provide that for each furry friend I look after. If you ever need advice on training puppies or caring for senior dogs, feel free to ask me! Pet care is a significant part of my daily routine. I make sure to prioritize the well-being of my furry friends by incorporating feeding, grooming, exercise, and playtime into my daily schedule. Training sessions are also crucial to keep them mentally stimulated and happy. My pets are like family to me, so I always ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve every day. I make sure to provide a safe, trustworthy environment for pets in both my home and my client's home. Depending on the service I offer, I tailor my care routines to meet the specific needs of each pet. This can include feeding, grooming, exercise, playtime, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for them to thrive. I always prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal, hands-on experience I have with a wide range of animals and my genuine passion for their well-being. I currently have two dogs of my own—one large and one small—so I understand how different each pet’s personality and needs can be. I’ve also owned and cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, reptiles, and small pets, giving me the confidence and knowledge to handle all kinds of situations. Unlike sitters who see this as just a side job, I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I’m reliable, patient, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable and supported. Balancing school and a job has taught me the importance of time management and responsibility—skills that I bring into my pet care routine every day. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I prioritize pet care because it’s something I genuinely love and am passionate about. Caring for animals is more than just a side job for me—it’s a rewarding part of my daily life, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, no matter how busy my schedule may be. What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal experience and deep understanding I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t just watch animals—I live with them every day. With two dogs of my own (one big, one small) and years of hands-on experience owning a variety of pets including cats, reptiles, birds, and small animals, I know how to handle all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I also keep open, honest communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My passion, reliability, and experience make me more than just a sitter—I’m someone you and your pets can truly trust.

About: First and foremost, I love our furry little friends! I have a beautiful 4.5 year old Bluetick Coonhound/German Shepard mix named Scarlet & she is the love of my life. We love relaxing & snuggling together, walking, running, playing with a soccer ball & of course she loves being chased around with her toy. She is well trained unless she’s being her stubborn hound self! I also grew up with 3 cats and a Beagle/Chihuahua mix, which was my first dog at 17. Even at that age I would take her on walks in the park or neighborhood, plays games with her & give her all the love she wanted. She was a feisty one with medicating but she trusted me the most in doing it. I’ve worked at an animal clinic for over 8 years. I am well trained with medicating pets, senior pets & nervous/anxious pets. Even though my days during the week are filled with meeting new dogs/cats or seeing my favorite patients, there’s always room for more love to give! I work full time during the week at the animal hospital (Monday-Thursday) but I am available on weekends for those that work or have plans :) I make sure the pet’s collar/leash are well secured on them so there is no chance for them to get loose while on a walk. I will make sure all gates are closed. As part of being a vet tech I am trained in trimming nails & expressing anal glands, as well as knowing if there is an issue that needs to be addressed by a doctor. If your pet has any specific medical, food or behavioral needs I am very experienced to assist! :)

“Elias was great. Agreed to do a meet and greet to ensure the whole situation would work. Tries his best to work around your schedule and be flexible to the pet and owners needs. Will happily continue to work with Elias for dog walking and possibly boarding in the future!”

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets — and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, patient with anxious or senior animals, and always communicate regularly with owners so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.

About: As a dog lover I devote my days to the pups. I have a collection of various toys and activity boards for all pups to use. I do also make busy boxes using recycled boxes and things for them to chew up. My two young boys love to help set up the activities for the doggies and are great cleaner-upers. As a kid and into my teen years, I raised roughly 7 Seeing Eye Dogs for the blind. We had each dog for the first year of their lives before they went on to do amazing work. Even as a kid I was to-go to person for tips and tricks for the adults. I have always absolutely loved dogs. They’re an amazing part of my life, always will be. I do accept puppies under 1 year. My pup LOVES baby puppies and is the sweetest thing with them. She’s wildly tolerant with the baby pups and will let them play all over her. I do not take breed under 25 pounds. I do take all breeds above this. I absolutely love big and giant dogs. My yard is fenced, it’s not super big but with YOUR permission only I do have a dog park about 5-10 walking minutes away I’d love to take them too. (Strong recall required, please let me know how well they return when called in a public place with others.) **** PLEASE READ. I apologize for this but unfortunately I am unable to accept pups older than 10 or those who maybe unstable on them or vinyl wood floors (I only have these types of flooring. I DO NOT HAVE CARPETING). I do have steps inside as well as 4 walking into and out of the house. I love all dogs all ages and I would prefer not to put them in a difficult position during their puppy vacation. I hope this isn’t an inconvenience. Please give your pups a scratch for me.****** I absolutely love spending time with dogs and puppies so they fit right into any day. I enjoy the flexibility that comes with this scheduling. I also enjoy that I have the chance to meet new amazing dogs often. I am a stay home mom outside of Rover so I do have two young boys, but it does that I get to stay home with puppies and my youngest. My three year-old absolutely loves spending the day with the puppies and me. I will always treat your dog or puppy as I would treat my own. With all the love in the world and give them everything that they need want or required. My goal is a happy puppy. Happy puppy means happy owners. And that means everybody’s happy.

“We truly hit the “jackpot” when we found Erika! First impressions speak volumes which most certainly put me at ease! Right off the bat, I knew my Jinky was going to love Erika! She showed up for every scheduled visit on time for her walks which were twice a day. On each walk, I got pictures and updates and Jinky got belly rubs and kisses! I already asked Erika about December and if she’d be available!!!! With that being said, there’s nobody else I’d want but Erika to take care of my FURBABY! She’s the BEST!”
