Dog Walking Middletown

About: I provide individualized care for every dog, whether it’s playful energy for puppies or gentle attention for seniors. I’m experienced with training basics, medication administration, and building trust with anxious dogs. My goal is to keep every pup happy, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I plan my days around pet visits and walks, ensuring consistent feeding times, exercise, and companionship. Pet care is an important, dedicated part of my weekly schedule. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for. I stick to their routines, provide exercise, and keep communication open with updates and photos.

About: Hi I am Lila, conveniently located behind the gates of Hidden Valley Lake. I am a highly sensitive person who has had a special relationship with animals since I was young. I believe they are our teachers as much as we are their guides & guardians. Often when I meet a pet we love each other instantly (of course there can be some shy ones too!) yet with time, attunement, & positive reinforcement a deeper trust gets built. Even with the most secure, adjusted cat or dog, there can be a bit of extra stress while you are gone. Relationship building helps them feel relaxed and safe while their 'pack' is away’. They co-regulate with us, just as we co-regulate with them. I love learning what type of engagement/enrichment each pet loves. I am great with sensitive pets and support them. I keep you updated with photos and any observations I may have or suggestions of extra support for them. I only work with reasonably socialized dogs - if there are higher levels of behavioral issues, I can refer a good trainer in the area if needed. I sometimes work with protective dog breeds (GSD etc) but only if they are trained and friendly. I am not working with pit bulls at this time (I have met some sweet ones). I like to prioritize my time for connection with each pet, so I like to leave gaps between my visits in case more care or play is needed during my visit. For house and pet sitting, I want to spend more time with your pet and then take fewer drop-in visits, so the cost reflects this. I do have Pet Insurance beyond Rover as well just in case it is needed. It never has been but I want all pets safe, sound, and happy I use positive reinforcement to create a loving secure relationship with each pet. This is done with respect for their own agency while engaging in mental, physical, and relaxation activities.

About: I have cared for my own dog from when she was a puppy and up until her passing. I also currently help take care of my roomates’ dogs. I’m well versed in dogs of all types and ages. I do pet care daily for my roomates dogs and would love to help care for more dogs in the area. I enjoy spending my time with them. When taking care of my friends pets at home, I have them sleep with me in my room, so that I can hear if they need anything at any time.

“Sydney is the best! She is always on time and we can tell she is truly a animal lover. Our Pharaoh Hound Ray is blind and we have had a hard time trusting anyone to take care of him. With Sydney that’s not the case. Ray love walks with her and we trust her 110% Thanks Sydney for taking such good care of Ray and putting our minds at ease.”

“From the moment we met Peter, we immediately felt at ease. He has a calm, confident energy and quickly tuned in to our boys’ personalities and temperament. Peter asked thoughtful questions and paid attention to the details to make sure he could provide the best care possible. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Laura is getting to know Yogee and also getting better at walking him. He is a energetic puppy and needs a good well paced walk. She is very patient with him which is lovely as he is slowly adapting to her. I hope to have her walk Yogee more in the future. She was very helpful and even started using the Rover cards. She is a really nice person.”

“We are so glad we found Rachel through Rover. We needed an overnight and walks for our skittish husky, who generally takes a while to warm up to people. Our dog was immediately comfortable with Rachel, tail wags and all. Rachel has a very calming way. She was great with communication, clear with scheduling, gave us regular updates, and left our home very tidy. Our dog was clearly well cared for. We hope to book her again in the future. Thank you, Rachel!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my families puppy and my own kitten for about 2 years now ! Ive taken care of other peoples dogs in the past as well! I’m efficient and competent. Im currently a college student, so I spend most of my time at home and just in general I’m a home body. So, I have enough time to care and tend to pets and their needs. I’m very attentive to my own cat and families dog. They both have feeding schedules and are potty trained. I’ve taken my time to make them good pets. I’ve showed the same amount of attention and affection to other peoples pets as well.

About: I've been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, and over the years, it's become second nature to me. I have hands-on experience with both small breed dogs and cats, and I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just some quiet cuddles, I know how to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m also very attentive to pets’ bathroom cues and routines—an important part of keeping them healthy and happy. Currently, I have a pug and a labrador at home, so I’m very familiar with both the playful energy of larger dogs and the special care smaller breeds often require. Your furry friend will be in loving, experienced hands! As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility and time to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine—I’m able to provide regular check-ins, walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions without any rush. Because I’m home most of the time, your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can easily adapt to their schedule, whether that means early morning feedings, midday walks, or keeping them company during the quieter parts of the day. My flexible work setup allows me to be present, responsive, and fully committed to your pet’s comfort and well-being. At my home, your pet will feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a fully fenced yard, which is perfect for dogs to run, play, and get their exercise in a secure space. Whether it’s a quick potty break or some time to burn off energy, they’ll have room to move around freely and safely. Inside, I have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or just need a quiet, cozy space to relax. I always make sure pets feel at ease, whether they prefer lounging indoors, exploring the yard, or snuggling up for some one-on-one attention. Your pet will be treated like part of the family in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment.

About: I love pets and being in nature enhances my love to take care of pets and always more room for more walk or runs which sets up a great times I’m working full time although I work hybrid, two to three days in the office, and will love to pet sit Wednesday, Friday Saturday or Sunday! I have taken care of lots of pets friends and colleagues pets while out for trips and will make sure to communicate which will help being able to cater towards your pet even better

About: I am a kind, reliable, loving college student who loves spending time with furry friends. I have two dogs of my own and have had a few felines as well in my household. I have volunteered at animal shelters and shadowed veterinarian hospitals and I learned I rather spend time having fun with animals and taking care of them in a surrounding that is most comfortable for them. I am honest and value honesty and integrity as well as family. Our pets are a part of our family and I know from experience it can be hard leaving them home alone for a week or couple of hours. I am here to make that easier by relieving the stress of the unkown of what is happening with your pet at home by being with them and taking excellent care of them. I am available week days and weekend to sit, walk or visit your furry friends from 6am-8pm which give me plenty of time to play and make sure your pets are taken care of. While taking care of your furry friends I make sure that they are safe and follow any instructions left by you to keep them happy and safe.
