Dog Walking Monroe

About: I’m a dedicated pet owner with hands-on experience caring for a husky, a Shepsky (German Shepherd/husky mix), and a cat. I understand the energy, intelligence, and attention these breeds need, from long walks and playtime to structure and consistency. I’m comfortable managing high-energy dogs, handling different personalities, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule to accommodate pet care throughout the day. I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular walks, feeding, and check-ins, and can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s specific needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. On walks, I prioritize safety by staying aware of surroundings and keeping dogs secure at all times. I also make sure your home stays clean, secure, and just the way you left it.

About: I have always loved dogs. They are the very best of us. My last two dogs lived to 17 years old so I'm very familiar with the needs of elderly dogs and my current dog (4 years old) we got as a puppy. Anything you need I can handle with love and confidence. Happy to send updates and pictures. Our pets are family. I'm a local photographer so I get to set my own schedule. I can mold it to your pet's needs. I'm active and wake up early. I have laminate floors and a completely fenced in large back yard. I understand every animal is different and since I work from home, we do not have a pet door so even indoor pets are safe. In your home I'm happy to follow your rules and respect boundaries. Happy to send pictures and updates!

About: My husband, Len, and I had dogs for most of our married life of over 45 years; 1 Siberian Husky, 3 beagles, and 3 English bulldogs. We are retired and have time to spend caring for your fur babies. We moved to Monroe two years ago to be near one of our children. We now have the time to spend caring for your pets. We have not adopted a dog because we have had to travel back to our home town for extended periods due to medical issues of family members. We are now able to offer assist to pet owners with their needs. We have a fenced yard where they can explore freely. We also are near a large park and lake, where there are walking paths where both people and dogs enjoy walking around. A one story house where dogs, who are older, don’t have stairs to climb. Your dog is welcome to sit with us on the sofa, and sleep comfortably. We can also crate during the night. We will accommodate your schedule with your dog at your home also.

“She is amazing! My dogs love her, and I always come home to happy dogs. She really gets to know them, and she sends beautiful pictures every time she visits.”

“Hannah is friendly and reliable. She is always on time and even able to accommodate some last minute requests. Our mini schnauzer Oli seems to like her a lot already. We are very pleased with Hannah’s help! Oh, her communication is excellent!”

About: I’m an experienced, dependable dog lover with two active, playful dogs of my own, and I have previous house-sitting experience caring for other people’s dogs. I enjoy providing dogs of all sizes with engaging playtime, regular walks, and attentive care. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including helping reinforce basic training and routines. I’m confident handling both large and small breeds, and I prioritize safety, consistency, and each dog’s individual needs. I understand the importance of keeping a reliable schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medications, and other care instructions. I can also provide baths when needed. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. As a college student, I will need to attend classes during the academic year; however, I am on summer break until late September and have broad availability during that time. Once the school year begins, I will be in class on Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Outside of those hours, I can provide reliable and attentive care for your pet. I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I will keep unsafe or non-pet-friendly items securely out of reach and follow your preferences for collars, harnesses, leashes, and outdoor safety. For walks, car rides, and any time spent outside the home, I will make sure your pet is properly secured. I will maintain their regular feeding and potty schedule, provide frequent outdoor breaks, and keep them engaged with activities they enjoy, such as fetch, tug-of-war, or other favorite games. Most importantly, I will provide plenty of companionship, attention, and affection so your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you are away.

“Rebecca was very good with our very shy and stubborn Alusky. She was communicative and gave me a play-by-play scenario as she tried to get Laika to leave the house for a walk. I highly recommend Rebecca. She has previous experience with large breed dogs and it helped with our situation. We will have you back Rebecca!”

About: An animal lover all my life, I am currently mom to a 6 year old German Shepherd Dog (spayed female), 2 year old kitty (neutered male), and 8 year old hooman child. I've grown up with cats and dogs (and birds, and turtles, and guinea pigs, and fish) and am experienced in handling all breeds and giving medications and supplements. I have watched dogs in my home and grew up pet sitting for neighbors, but can also do drop-ins or provide walks as needed! I work from home and am here most of the day. Fully fenced yard. I work from home full time, and have a fairly flexible schedule to accommodate your pet's needs, whether morning, mid-day, or later on. I treat your fur baby as though it were my own! Snuggles and play time will be amply given. If you have special routines, I am happy to do those, as well.

“Michael is punctual, a great communicator, and it’s obvious he loves animals. Meeko took to him right away and looked forward to his walks. He would fall asleep before Michael could pull away in his car! I HIGHLY recommend Michael and will definitely reach again should the need arise.”

“My mother was dog sitting while we went out of town. She was unable to walk Flora (our dog) due to medical issues. Hope was a great help to my Mother. She arrived on time. Communicated well with my mother. Walked and exercised Flora. We will use Hope again next time we travel.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have cared for pets since I was a child. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. As a retired pet sitter with a flexible schedule, I can give your pets the time, attention, companionship, and frequent potty breaks they deserve throughout the day. I’m experienced caring for pets of all ages, including senior dogs and cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. I also have experience caring for cats, alpacas, goats, chickens, and cows, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I share my home with my sweet senior Beagle, who is very laid-back, gentle, and gets along well with other animals. His calm personality helps visiting pets feel welcome and at ease. While my yard is not fenced, I live in a wonderful, walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for safe leash walks, sniff adventures, or stroller rides for senior pets who still enjoy getting outside. For added peace of mind, a veterinary clinic is conveniently located right at the bottom of my street should an emergency ever arise. I will care for your pets as if they were my own, providing them with plenty of love, patience, and individualized attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in loving, dependable hands. As a retiree, I have a very flexible schedule and can provide care any day of the week, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings when available. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, and I’m happy to work around their schedule to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. “For everyone’s safety, I only allow dogs outdoors while securely leashed unless otherwise instructed by the owner.” As a previous owner of two small Yorkies, who sadly passed away from old age, I know how important it is for them to continuously be watched due to predators etc. I will always be very cautious with your prize possessions. I occasionally have my 7 year old grandson in my home, but he is great with animals. He’s only at my place a couple times a week.

“Xena seemed to really like Lisa. Lisa was even kind enough to help me clip Xena's nails when Xena wouldn't allow me to do it. Xena always seemed happy and relaxed after her walks with Lisa.”

I love being outdoors and take long walks. I can do drop-in visits or stay overnight when necessary. I am also good with cats or other animals. I will follow instructions and make sure your pet and you will be happy. I am available pretty much all the time. A day notice would be good however I can be available on a shorter notice as well. I can watch your dog in your house if you allow that or crate a dog if needed. Will follow the feeding schedule and make sure to keep fresh water available.

I can stop by several times a day if needed depending on the distance. if your dog need emotional care, I would be happy to be present to keep him/her comfortable. I am very flexible as well.

About: Hi there, my name is Chrissy, and I'd be thrilled to take care of your pets! I started working with Rover in 2018 to motivate myself to get out of the house on dog walks and have expanded my services over time to offer house sitting as well. I pride myself on being an excellent sitter and a thorough communicator. I promise to treat your pets just like my own. I grew up around dogs, cats, lizards, and snakes. I currently have one dog, a giant Newfy named Kaiju. I'm comfortable helping out pets that are older, those with special needs, or those that require medication, so don't be afraid to reach out if your pet has unique circumstances. (I've also found that I am quite good with dogs that are skittish or unable to be around other dogs. If that sounds like your pup, don't hesitate to contact me. I know it takes a while for some pets to adjust. I'm willing to sit and work with them.) I love to make homemade dog treats for all my friend's furry companions and would love to spoil your dog with them as well (barring any health/allergy concerns, and always with your permission, of course!). I also have an intense love for cats. I lost my kitty last year unfortunately, but we had a lovely 19 years together. If your feline friend needs a sitter to check on them, I'd be happy for the opportunity. I have an Instagram on which I post pictures of the pets I walk or watch. If your pet has their own profile and you'd like me to tag them, please let me know. I try to ask before I post pictures, and never include any identifying information like addresses or family photos in the posts. My Instagram handle is chrissylovesdoggos. I'm available for both house sitting and drop-ins, and I do dog walking as well. I currently don't advertise for boarding at my house, but I do have a fenced in front and back yard and plenty of space in the house for a dog. I'd be willing to potentially host dogs that are comfortable around my giant Newfy, as well as older children. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need this service and think your dog would be a good fit. I am currently working a full time job in a veterinary clinic. My weekday services are limited due to the long hours I work. I try to update my calendar regularly, but you’re more than welcome to message me about a date even if it says I’m unavailable. Sometimes I can make it work! I will try my best to accommodate your schedule and needs, but bookings do fill up fast. I take clients on a first come first served basis, so the sooner you let me know about your plans, the better! My biggest priority is keeping your pet happy and safe, and to leave your home looking the same or better than when I arrived. I have an eye for detail and will make sure I thoroughly understand any safety concerns you may have during my stay with your pet.

About: Hello! I am Sam. I have cared for pets of my own since a young age and professionally since I was 18. I have cared for dogs at every life stage and size. I am currently a stay at home mom and have flexible availability. I have cared for special needs dogs and dogs that require specialized medication. I am currently a new mom to a baby girl and have ample time available to care for your pets. I can do morning and evening walks as well as home visits and am flexible with time. As a new person caring for your pet in their territory I am patient and calm. I will keep their regular schedule to make sure their life stays consistent while you are away.

“We have had Nicole come over to walk both our dogs several times now and she is great! We always get an update from her and she has been super flexible and willing to give them food around dinner time, towel them off after a rainy walk, refill water bowls, etc. I can always tell the difference when I get home if they have got to hang out with Nicole that day! ”

“Emily is amazing! She has become our regular dog walker for our reacue pup Yoshi. Because he is a rescue, he came to us very sick. She took his kennel cough on in stride and without my asking she offered to confirm for me that he was passing worms in his stool! Seriously, that is above and beyond!!! I feel as though she cares for him as much as I do - letting me know when his behavior is off and alerting me to his needs. She takes great pictures and communicates well. I was skeptical about giving my house key to someone I didnt know - she set me at ease at our meet and greet and was tje best decision we made after taling Yoshi home. Hire her! She is our go to for midday walks.”
