Dog Walking Merrydale

“Kaylee was so amazing! She was reliable, kind and so great with coming to walk our pup twice a day while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Will 100% be using Kaylee again in the future.”

About: I’ve been apart of a dog training club for 13 years now called LCCOC. Growing up, I’ve helped my guardian with husbandry and care of puppies and different dogs over the years. I’ve had neighbors rely on me to help dog sit, feed, and walk their dogs often as well. Recently, I’ve started working at a pet store to further my knowledge on animals. I do have a part time job but I get a couple days or so off during the week but I work different times during the day when I’m scheduled, it’s never the same times. I do also plan to go back to school in the spring if possible but will still have time for others. I’m not entirely sure how my dogs would do around others that are in their home. I am use to having the keys and being careful with them if given them to enter a home and feed dogs and doing others tasks to care for them.

“Debra was excellent with my senior dog Henry. She was always on time, she was able to find a way to get him to eat breakfast and she gave regular updates. Highly recommend.”

“Annabel is a fantastic dog walker! She is always punctual, reliable, and very easy to work with. She’s incredibly caring and sweet with my dog, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves and understands animals. She’s attentive, patient, communicative, and makes me feel completely comfortable knowing my dog is in good hands. I really appreciate how dependable she is and the care and attention she gives on every walk. I would absolutely recommend Annabel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

“Anna is so great! She takes such great care of my pup when I am at work. She also goes above and beyond to make sure Koda is having a good time! Highly recommend.”

About: Pets are more than just animals. They are part of our families and deserv to be spoiled and loved since they are only with us for a short time. I do transports for rescues as often as possible to help as many as possible to find loving homes. I currently have two dogs and between jobs so my availabilty is pretty open. I can't do overnight/house sit because of my two boys, but can check in and visit anytime. I'm available for walks and house visits, but can't do overnights. I can check or visit at any time though. I treat all animals as good, if not better than my own. I appreciate their various personalites and quirks. One of mine is reactive towards mainly men and other dogs, so I understand some need special attention that others may not. They are all unique individuals.

“Mason is great with my two big boys and they are super excited when she shows up.”

About: I am a veterinary student at LSU with a lifelong love of animals and over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of species. I offer reliable pet sitting. I’m also comfortable administering medications and supplements as directed. I know how important it is to leave your animals with someone you trust, and I’ll care for each of them as if they were my own! As an LSU veterinary student, my schedule varies slightly throughout the week, but I’m generally available in the early mornings, between classes, in the evenings, and throughout the weekend. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, dog walks, house sitting, boarding, or daycare whenever my schedule allows. I communicate my availability clearly before booking and make sure I have plenty of time to give each animal the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I follow each owner’s instructions closely and maintain the animal’s normal routine as much as possible. I prioritize safety by keeping doors, gates, leashes, and enclosures secure, supervising pets carefully, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. Because I live in an apartment, boarded dogs are taken outside for supervised leash walks and potty breaks rather than being allowed into an off-leash yard. I’m also comfortable administering medications and supplements as directed, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of individual attention.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for dogs and cats throughout my adult life, including beagles, miniature pinschers, German pinschers, and a variety of cats. Although I recently lost my beloved pets to old age and am not quite ready to adopt again, I deeply miss the companionship and joy animals bring. Pet sitting offers the perfect way for me to continue spending time with furry friends while helping others feel confident that their pets are in good hands. I’m dependable, trustworthy, and always punctual. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible. I am happy to visit a client's home to walk their pet and play with them at any time of the day. I am pleased to walk dogs and tend to their needs, such as medication or feeding. I’m also comfortable with cats as well. I do not currently offer in-home boarding.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for around 5 years. Just recently became a dog mom, it’s a challenge at times, but all they want is love. I’m currently self employed, so my schedule is very flexible and I can easily move my schedule around to accommodate if necessary for your fur baby. My backyard is fenced. So your baby can roam a little outside. I also have doggy beds/ blankets/ pads. I can also provide food if preferred.

About: I have experience with cats, reptiles, and dogs. I have experience with reactive and aggressive dogs and their care, as well as skittish dogs, and normal pups. As I am a small person, I cannot walk untrained giant breed dogs unfortunately, but I can more than happily dog sit and do drop in care! I love animals of all types and find great joy in caring for animals. I've worked with senior dogs, new born puppies, older puppies, rescue dogs, neglected dogs, and longtime family pups. I have experience with all sorts of cats, from skittish to cuddle bugs. I have some experience with training and find joy in helping dogs reach their best potential and learn new tricks. I've been caring for animals since I was at least 13 years old and intend to long into my future.

Let’s Meet! Send me a message anytime to arrange a meet & greet — I’m happy to make sure you and your pets feel comfortable before booking. I wake up around 6:30-8:00 AM most days and get right to work caring for the pets. Everyone is let out in backyard, or leashed up for a walk around the block. Pets are diligently cared for. Usually this consists of at least 3 walks per day, a visit to the park, and plenty of backyard time. I spend all day with the animals, leaving only for a personal errand or visit to the store. Each animal is analyzed carefully & fit into proper schedules according to their personality, levels of energy, and socialization. I provide a secure, fenced-in yard and individual kennels for each pet’s comfort and safety. Dogs start their day around 6:30–8:00 AM with a 10 to 30-minute walk, followed by supervised backyard playtime and snacks. Kennels are used only for rest and feeding—pets spend the majority of their day active, social, and engaged. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, whether that includes frequent park trips, light obedience training, short backyard outings or bathing. My goal is to ensure every animal feels safe, loved, and enriched in a clean, well-maintained environment.
