Dog Walking New Melle

About: I’ve cared for pets and homes across the U.S. and internationally with TrustedHousesittersdotcom—including month-long house and pet sitting stays in Thailand, Ireland, and England. As the founder of HomestewardZdotcom, I bring the same thoughtful, trustworthy care to animals as I do to homes and gardens. I’m also accustomed to working with special needs cats and dogs, including those with behavioral or medical requirements. I genuinely love animals and treat them like family, offering calm, attentive companionship and reliable routines. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or more exotic pets or horses, I ensure they feel safe, seen, and loved while you’re away. As the owner of HomestewardZ, where I offer handyman work, interior painting, and house/pet sitting, I have complete flexibility in my schedule. This means I can be fully available to care for your pets whenever they need attention—whether that’s daily walks, medication, or just quality time. Pet care isn’t a side gig for me—it’s part of a meaningful lifestyle rooted in trust, presence, and care. I care for pets exclusively in my clients’ homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I prioritize safety, consistency, and trust—following your routines closely, keeping the environment clean and calm, and giving your pets the attention and affection they need to thrive while you’re away. I treat every home with deep respect and every animal like a member of the family.

About: I have always been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs as a kid, and have always had one as an adult (aside from living in an apartment that didn’t allow it). I believe exercise and outside stimulation is very important for the well being of any dog. I currently have a dog that goes for runs with me several times a week. While I’m new to walking other people’s dog, I’ve been taking my own out for years! I currently work three night shifts a week during the week. I’m generally always available during the daytime on Mondays. I’ll normally be available at least one more day during the week, but that day is variable. I’ll also be available most weekends I currently walk my dog on a leash with a harness. I try to stick with sidewalks as much as possible. If I see another dog out on our walk that is barking at us, I generally go a different direction than them. You just never know how they will react towards you or the dog. I feel safety is very important for everyone.

“Katie is the best, Kaiya loves her and she is very communicative and prompt!”

“Jennifer was great! She stayed in touch Throughout the walk and sent photos. It was so nice to have the pups let out and walked while we were out on the boat for the day! Makes vacationing nice for us and the pups :)”

About: I’m a devoted dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I raised one of my English Bulldogs through all 13 years of his life and currently care for my active four-year-old bulldog every day. My experience has taught me how important patience, consistency, and personalized care are in helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine and personality so they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup needs walks, cuddle time, companionship, or playtime, I’ll treat them like my own dog and make sure they receive plenty of love and attention. I’d love the opportunity to care for your dog and give you peace of mind while you’re away! 😊 I work remotely from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and consistent care throughout the day. My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and companionship. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and love making pets feel comfortable, active, and cared for while their owners are away Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to make sure they are comfortable at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“She was amazing with my dog. Super great communication and energy to match my pup. He was thrilled with her and getting his exercise. Will be re-hiring for sure.”

About: I’m a dedicated and experienced pet sitter with a deep love for animals. Having cared for my own Golden Retriever for 13 years and providing pet sitting services for friends and neighbors, I’ve developed a strong foundation in pet care. My experience is primarily with dogs, but I also adore and have been around cats. My approach to pet care focuses on providing individual attention, maintaining routines, and ensuring safety and well-being. I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior and understand the importance of exercise and play for pets. I’m motivated by the joy of building bonds with different pets and seeing their unique personalities shine. Each pet receives personalized care tailored to their needs, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. I offer a range of services including dog walking, overnight stays, administering medication, and anything else a client’s pet might need. My goal is to provide the highest level of care and ensure that every pet is happy and well-cared for. Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requests. I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I’m a full-time teacher with a consistent weekday schedule—out the door by 7 AM and home by 3 PM—which means your pup will get plenty of love and attention in the afternoons, evenings, and full availability on weekends, holidays, and breaks. Most dogs are used to their owners being gone during the day, so my routine works great for pups who are crate trained or used to a calm, midday break. After work, I dedicate time to walks and playtime, ensuring pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Over the past year, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and have added multiple XL crates to my house, making things super convenient for owners with crate-trained pups—no need to pack one! After work, I dedicate time to walks and playtime, ensuring pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Your pup will feel safe, loved, and right at home with me! To ensure the safety of pets, I have a very large, securely fenced-in yard where they can enjoy fresh air and play freely. Inside the home, I keep the environment pet-proofed by removing any potentially harmful items and maintaining a cozy, comfortable space with plenty of bedding and room for relaxation. I manage potential risks by thoroughly assessing and adjusting the environment to eliminate hazards and monitoring pets closely for any signs of distress. If I’m caring for more than one dog at a time, I always feed them separately to avoid any food-related stress or aggression. I have several XL crates available, which are primarily used to create a safe and calm space for feeding and rest—especially for pups who are already crate trained. To build trust with pets and their owners, I maintain clear and open communication, following the owner’s specific instructions and providing regular updates and photos. This transparency reassures owners and helps pets feel comfortable and secure in my care. My focus is on creating a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for every pet I look after.

About: I have had past experience working at a Vet clinic where I have walked, given medication to, and interacted with multiple dog breeds of all different ages and needs. I have also taken care of a variety of animals for family members and friends for over 5 years. In addition, I have had many household pets of my own since I was 5 years old that I have cared and loved for. My work schedule is very flexible right now so I will be able to spend plenty of time caring for your furry family members! I can dog walk any day of the week, primarily in the mornings and afternoons. I have a flexible schedule when it comes to dog-sitting, I just ask for about a week in advance heads-up so I can work things out with you and my work schedule. I care for all pets with love and respect. I understand that they are not just pets, but family members too and deserve the same love, care, and treatment. I maintain a healthy pet-place environment to ensure the safety of your beloved pets. If needed, I am more than willing to follow any strict schedules or regimens to make sure your furry family member is comfortable, healthy, and feels safe within their own home.

“Kate did a great job of checking in and spending time with our senior dog while I was at work. My dog is not in the best health and it was a comfort to know he was being taken care of especially on the days he wasn't feeling as well.”

About: I currently own 2 dogs and have grown up with dogs my whole life! We are on a very good schedule with eating, potty, and walking. I am used to about a 30 minute walk with my dogs so I’m willing to take them however far they want. I love dog cuddles and playing fetch. I live with all my pets and am responsible for caring for them everyday. I can walk, play, and feed on a schedule very well I will strictly follow a schedule if you were to give me one and make sure your animals are well taken care of every day

About: I've had animals my whole life and currently have 3 dogs (2 huskies & a cattle dog, pit mix). I've had dogs, cats, a ferret, and some rodents growing up. I've always had a love for animals and have researched multiple animal topics on my own for many years! I worked in a vet office in the kennel for 2 years and have experience on the medical side. I trained my youngest husky all on my own, including kennel training, potty training, and obedience training, and grooming assistance. While I still have a full-time job until I get established I'll only be available in the evenings/nights for walks and overnights as I work 8-hour shifts at a time. Once I get established I will be available any time of day and any day of the week, except for maybe 1 or 2 hours on Wednesdays. I care for all animals as if they were my own. I always leave it how it was when I got there, if not better. I do my best to keep them in the same routine their owners have them in. I don't mind helping with other small tasks on the side for an extra fee.
