Dog Walking in Mount Pleasant

“Jacqueline did such a great job with my timid little beagle. She was patient and kind, and I look forward to having her walk my little girl again so I can get to know her better!”

“Was great with Finn! Excellent communicator. Was on time every time. Loved the Rover cards with comments about Finn and their time together. She even brought in mail packages that were sitting on the porch. Highly recommend her and would use her again.”

About: I have been caring and training dogs for over a decade, including experience with large breeds. I am especially experienced with Newfoundlands, Newfoundland-Poodle mixes, Goldendoodles, Dogo Argentinos, and Vizslas. I am comfortable handling strong, energetic dogs and always approach animals with patience, respect, and understanding their individual needs. As a healthcare graduate student, I bring responsibility, attention to detail, and caring communication to every pet I care for. In addition, I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so I'm happy to provide long walks and structured exercise for pets who need to burn off some energy. Come May, I'll have a flexible schedule as I complete the classroom portion of my Doctor of Physical Therapy program. With a lighter schedule and no part-time work commitments, I'll have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to walks, drop-in visits, and giving your pets the attention they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain secure handling during walks, and supervise pets closely at all times. I respect each home's rules and routines to ensure consistency for the pet. I am attentive to behavioral cues and changes in health, and I communicate promptly with owners if anything seems out of the ordinary.

About: i’ve taken care of dogs and cats and other animals from the time I was little, whether it be neighbors or friends or my own as I grew up on a farm! I have experience with aggressive and avoidant, cats and dogs. I’m currently free all day, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting during both weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, closely supervise playtime, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. currently, I live in an apartment with a fenced in dog area in the backyard, but in a few weeks will be moving into a townhouse with my very own backyard!

About: I have been caring for a wide variety of animals my whole life, from cats to horses to dogs of all sizes! Large breeds are my specialty, as I have grown up around Great Danes, Saint Bernards, and Newfoundlands my entire life, and feel very comfortable handling them. I have cared for many senior and small breed dogs as well, so your pets will receive the upmost care no matter the age or size! I love working with as many unique personalities and animals as I possibly can, and will work tirelessly to make sure they receive the care they need. My schedule is often very open, especially during the summer when classes are out, so I will communicate well to work around YOUR schedule! I will do what it takes to get your pets the care they need when they need it. Safety is priority number one when it comes to caring for pets, for both me and the animals. I am sure to follow whatever instructions are given to me to the strictest degree so you don't have to worry about your pets safety while you're away. When going for walks I always maintain firm a firm hold on the leash, even with bigger dogs. I have been walking with large breeds such as Saint Bernards and Great Danes for over a decade, so I feel very comfortable remaining in control. I always carry pepper spray with me as well, just as an absolute last resort in the very rare chance that anything would happen.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats for over 30 years. Animal husbandry is my passion. Understanding animal behavior is crucial and I insist on a meet and greet to ensure we are all compatible. I am retired and have an open schedule to meet the needs of your favorite fur baby. I’m currently at a time in my life where I want to spend more time with animals. Being retired frees me up to do just that. I live a simple quiet life now and would enjoy sharing my skills of caring and loving your family fur baby. At the clients home is my preference. I feel your pet needs the security of their own familiar space and home when you are gone. Also to have all their treats and toys and beds allow them to interact with me in a safe environment. Walking playing and snuggling 24/7 when you are not home is my goal!

“Andrea was wonderful. She listened to all instructions and advice and she seemed to handle my large spunky dogs well! I also appreciated that she took them for quite a long walk. I would highly recommend her, and will try to book her in the future!”

“Ava and her boyfriend took my two large dogs out for a walk while I was away. They did a great job. They came within the timeframe we had selected. Ava handled the hot weather and my dogs high energy fine. My dogs seemed happy and relaxed when I got home!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. Their personalities and idiosyncrasies are so interesting for me to uncover. I would love to get to know your fur babies also. I am extremely fortunate that I was able to retire from full-time employment and am presently employed part-time during the spring, summer, and fall months. I have lots of free time, and I like to stay active w/ my pets. I am passionate about animal safety and welfare. In Michigan's non-sub zero weather, I love walking my dog and cats - in their stroller - to ensure they all get daily exercise, fresh air, and stimulation. My pets are my family, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have two cats, Ginger & Lucy, and a dog named Purdy. Ginger & Lucy are indoor cats, and I have a stroller that they love to ride in on walks. My dog loves her walks in the park, woods, and playing at the dog park (when there are very few to no other dogs there). My dog is dog & cat friendly, although she is young and sometimes likes to play too rough for the kitties. We handle this with baby gates and bridges so the cats can still move around the house with ease.

About: I have loved and cared for many types of animals since childhood and have had two Beagle babies of my own for almost 10 years now! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. My communication and close attention to detail helps me to follow specific instructions, and as I am very particular about my pets - I understand how to ease the worries associated with someone else caring the way you would. Frequent updates and pictures is the way I roll so you won’t have to worry about a thing. Flexibility is everything to me, also being a caretaker to a grandparent, so if you are not sure if I am a good fit… let’s talk about it! My schedule is a balancing act but I am lucky enough to work from home, which allows me more flexibility with seeing and caring for my furry friends. I understand some things happen in life and I would love to help where I can! I will care for your pets in the exact manner you request, along with extra love, doting, attention, patience and empathy. Trust is everything when it comes to what you love, and my goal is for everyone to have the best experience.

“Kumar was perfect! I had a family emergency and it was very last minute but he accepted the booking and took care of my cat. Will definitely book him again if I need.”

About: I have been dropping in to take care of my family's pets for many years. One of my favorite things about dog walking letting them enjoy fresh air and new smells. I also have experience administering medication like pills and insulin. I am currently working part-time and am enrolled in college. My availability tends to vary, please check my calendar to ensure I can drop in and feed, walk, play with, or clean up after your pet. When visiting, I will remain respectful of your home and your belongings. When walking, I can notify you if any unusual bathroom events occur, and I will ensure they are always my number one priority when outside of the house.

About: I have taken care of dogs of different sizes and ages my whole adult life. I'm happy to go for long walks, play, or even just relax with your pets if that's what they need. I'm happy to take care of puppies all the way to seniors and give medication when needed. I work part time at a reasturant so I am available most days. When I do work it's late afternoon until mid evening. I'm happy to check and let out your fur babies before and after I work. I will always make sure they are taken care of and happy before I go. I will always respect and do what is required for your fur baby. I prefer anything very specific to be written down so I can follow each step to its specific need for your pets.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was young, as we have always had dogs and cats. Over the last couple of ears have started to house pet sit for familv and friends, as well as dog walking. I am currently attending college 2 days a week (mondays and Wednesday's) and work 8-5 during the week as well. I would like to be able to take care of pets on the weekends when I can. and maybe after work if that works out. I am very knowledgeable on how to care for animals. I will be careful when getting to the home and leaving the home to make sure the pet is in excellent care. While taking care of the pet I will be in contact with the owner.

About: I have cared for cats, dogs, lizards, tortoises, hamsters, and more for as long as I can remember. I grew up with animals in the house and am currently a mom to a cuddly 3 year old calico cat, a rambunctious 10 month old Orange cat, a grumpy-turned-love bug Maine coon mix, and a spunky 3 year old bearded dragon! I love them dearly and know how important care for them is and want to ensure your babies have the best care possible while you are out and about! I work full time but am only in the office 2 days a week so I will have lots of time to care for your pets and give them tlc while you are out and about! When caring for your pets, I will follow the schedule and directions provided for how to best care for your animals! I will give them lots of love when I interact with them!

About: I have 3 dogs of my own. They are all mixed breed and we adopted them from the humane society. All of my dogs are medium sized breeds, so I have the most experience with larger dogs, but I love dogs of all sizes and enjoy playing with them as well as caring for them. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule in the Summer. I am a substitute teacher during the school year and work a few days a week. I am willing to come to your home and take care of your pets. I can crate them if needed. If they like a daily walk, I will walk them. I will also make sure to stay for a little while at the home to give them some love.

About: I have 4 years experience in a pet store, I have a Veterinary Assistant certification from CMU, and am currently in college to get my Veterinary Technician license. I also have 10+ years of taking care of my childhood dogs and now the dog I have currently. Currently my schedule is wide open! Just looking for a side job as I continue my college work. My availability is currently open for any day or time! Currently because of my dog at home I do not offer any services at my residence, but I am confident in my knowledge about how to take care of your pet inside your home!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m experienced and comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m a huge dog person who truly loves spending time with them—whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them extra attention and affection. As a college student with classes only two days a week, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care during weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute requests. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me; it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Every dog I care for is treated like part of my own family, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m a college student and only have class two days a week, so I have a lot of free time during the rest of the week. Because of that, I’ve started offering pet-sitting and dog-walking services to make good use of my schedule. My open availability makes it easy to help pet owners who work long hours, travel, or just need someone dependable to check in on their animals. I can handle daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care, and I’m available on short notice most weekdays and weekends. Pet sitting has been a great way to earn extra money while spending time with animals, and it fits perfectly with my flexible college routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while following the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home: I make sure to follow all instructions for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep the home tidy, give pets plenty of attention, and send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing. In my home (if applicable): I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with room to play and relax. Dogs get regular walks, exercise, and cuddle time, and I keep their feeding and bathroom schedules consistent with what they’re used to. Because I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, I can spend extra time with pets, giving them the attention and care they need throughout the day instead of just quick check-ins.
