Dog Walking Niantic

About: Hello! I’m an animal-loving librarian. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes, temperaments, and ages. I have worked in a doggy daycare and a pet store and have had pets of my own. I look forward to getting to know you and your pets! I just finished grad school and am working a part time job that ends the first week of June. My schedule is very flexible and I have reliable transportation I put your pet’s comfort level first. I start out quiet and calm, and follow the animal’s cues to make sure they don’t get overstimulated. From there, I am patient and gentle as I develop an affectionate relationship with the pets :)

About: For 38 years, dogs have been a constant part of my life, and caring for them has always been second nature. I’ve owned and loved pups of every size, age, and temperament—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family. Whether it’s building trust with a shy dog, keeping up with a playful one, or providing calm, reliable care, I bring patience, experience, and genuine affection to every pet I meet. I work from home full‑time, which means your pup gets attention throughout the entire day—not just in quick check‑ins. I’m always available for walks, potty breaks, play sessions, and snuggle time, all based on the exact routine your dog is used to. Whether your pup thrives on structure or prefers a more relaxed rhythm, I’m here and present to give them the care, engagement, and consistency they deserve. I own my home and have plenty of space for dogs to explore—three full acres of open land for sniffing, roaming, and stretching their legs. Whether your pup loves leisurely strolls, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing in a peaceful outdoor setting, there’s room for all of it here. It’s a safe, quiet environment with lots of fresh air and freedom, giving your dog the space to feel comfortable, stimulated, and right at home.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 5 years old and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve watched friends’ dogs and cats while they’ve traveled, walked friends’ dogs, and helped care for my family’s cats. I’m a proud single mom to two amazing daughters and a Frenchie mama to Theo and Chloe, who are absolutely part of the family! ❤️ I’m also a local Realtor living in Waterford, and my flexible schedule allows me to make time for something else I truly enjoy—caring for animals! As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family members. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m reliable, attentive, respectful of your home, and always happy to send pictures and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands! 🐾💕 As a local Realtor, I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my days around appointments and commitments. This gives me the opportunity to fit in walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and plenty of playtime throughout the week! As a single mom and proud Frenchie mama, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. I understand the importance of consistency, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find times that best fit their furry family members’ needs. Whether it’s a midday potty break or some extra attention while you’re away, I’d love to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities! As a dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. When visiting your home, I’ll always respect your space, follow your pet’s established routines, and pay close attention to any special instructions or individual needs. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, walks are safe and enjoyable, and your pets receive plenty of love and attention. I’m also big on communication! You can expect pictures and updates during visits so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own! ❤️

“Great work with Jenny. Thanks for pics and videos!”

“Went above and beyond with my super high energy dog. Went on a 6mile walk to wear her out. I couldn’t ask for a better dog walker, very trustworthy.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved spending time with them. I have experience walking and caring for neighbors’ dogs, and I also have a Portuguese Water Dog of my own, Chulita, who I trained myself. I’m very active, responsible, and love getting outside for walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I’m a senior at Connecticut College with plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m active and enjoy spending time outdoors, so I’d be happy to work walks, playtime, and pet care into my daily routine. I’m reliable and will make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and exercise. I provide care in the owner’s home and will treat both your pet and your home with the utmost care and respect. I’ve house-sat before and am very comfortable staying in someone else’s home. I’m very detail-oriented and will pay close attention to your pet’s routine, needs, and any specific instructions you leave. I’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable while also keeping your home clean and tidy.

About: Hi, My name is Brooke I go by Seven and my entire life has been surrounded by animals, from catching frogs, lizards, feeding the squirrels and always just having that touch even with the animals that don't trust or care for most humans. I have that special something. I started walking the whole neighborhoods dogs when i was 9 years old, i would walk up to 5 at a time. At the age of 13 i started volunteering for an animal rescue fostering dogs and cats. I was the girl growing up all my friends would bring stray or lost animals too. 16 i started working as a vet assistant, at 18 working a 150 dog ranch/doggie daycare and boarding facility to then move on into my early twenties working a place in Seattle called Dogwood Play Park, the first of its kind. It was an indoor outdoor 21 plus play park and daycare. Owners could bring their dogs to play while they had a beer and got to know other dog lovers, I built many beautiful dog... and people friendships there. I have always been told by the owners they that their dogs listens to me better..I say its just cause i am alpha pack leader!! I have massive respect and love for all animals. I worked in Portland Oregon on a farm in 2022 called Trisklee farm where i cared for all the animals on the property as farmer seven, i did weekend tours of the farm and helped run kids summer camp.I am very good with all ages and types of animals. My biggest strength is animal body language, i can read an animals move before they do it. Something i have picked up over my life span over working with animals everyday. I can administer medications and very aware of your pets behaviors to make sure they feel the most comfortable at all times. I owned guinea pigs, giant Flemish Rex rabbit, cats, and just recently lost my best friends Clyde who was a mastiff Doberman this June , he was almost 12. And Alice my English mastiff who was almost 11 back in 2023 . large breeds are my specialty. I just had a new born on July 29th 2026 and have a year and a half year old as well. I am a stay at home mom who misses her pets and want my children to grow up around animals without making the commitment right now to add to the family. So being good around children who are young and learning boundaries is a must so we don’t put your pet or my children in an uncomfortable or dangerous situation. Hope to hear from you and care for your furry babies . I am a doula and stay at home mom I jsut lost my soul dog and looking to add some furry friends to our pack as friends for my children to learn to be around and get some love . I am very loving at attentive, I notice your pets needs almost immediately and what works for them. I’ll be as involved or chill as they need me to be. It’s your pets world I’m living in it. Yet I’m still alpha and set boundaries

About: I have years of experience taking care of pets, both professionally and at home. I am a former dog groomer, so I understand dog and cat behavior and know how to keep them feeling safe and comfortable! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your furry family members. I currently have open availability to take care of your pets in the comfort of your home. I would love to go on walks with your dogs, and even offer in home bathing and grooming services for an additional charge. I will be sure to keep your pets safe and happy during our visits, playtime, and walks. I would love to send you updates throughout our times together if you'd prefer!

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I currently live with my parents, where we have two family dogs, an Australian Kelpie and a Border Collie/Lab mix. So I'm very comfortable with energetic dogs and understand the importance of exercise, routine, and positive attention. Since graduating high school five years ago, I've regularly dog sat for friends and family, caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it's going for walks, stopping by for drop-in visits, or keeping your pup company while you're away, I'll make sure they receive the same love, care, and attention I'd want for my own dogs. I currently work four days a week, so I'm available for pet care on Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. On the days I work, I don't start until 1:00 PM, which means I'm also available for morning walks and drop-in visits before work. I do my best to be flexible and communicate clearly, so you can count on dependable care that fits your pet's routine! At this time, I only offer care in my clients' homes, where I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to follow each owner's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other routines that help your pet feel safe and secure.

“Nicholas has been great with our reactive dog. She’s slow to warm up, but he’s had a great attitude and now she wants belly rubs every time he comes. He’s been super responsive if there’s ever an accident. So glad to have found him!”

About: Having cared for 13 dogs and 4 cats (yes, we keep count), we've seen it all. Daily exercise and even bathing is quite familiar to us. Leo has hands-on experience with animal shelters, and I have biological based experience with both nutritional needs and animal anatomy, and we both can provide basic training. We currently have a year-old golden retriever and a tabby! We've dealt with a couple lovable (but difficult) pets and can deal with issues like stubbornness, biting, and basic potty training. Leo works from home, and I'm a commuter-basically, there's always someone home! We are both the "outdoorsy" type and frequent the devil's hop yard, as well as hike through our property. As STEM majors, animals keep us sane! We can also transport your pets (we have the seating and everything). Our property has a spacious (but secure) 100-acre forest, perfect for supervised walks and exploration! At home, our pets—a friendly Golden Retriever and a sweet Tabby—ensure your furry friend will never feel lonely. We can also provide crate time if needed for safety or comfort, and (given our flexibility) tailor care routines to meet each pet’s needs!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, from farm animals to beloved pets. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs after caring for my Pomeranian, Coco, in her old age.🪽I’m calm, patient, reliable, and experienced with all personalities, routines, and medication needs. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect. I’m a full-time student online, so I have plenty of time to spend with pets. I’m active and love getting dogs outside for walks and hikes, and I also make sure they get enrichment through play, structure, and mental stimulation. I practice a lot of this with my own dog, Brownie. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages. I’ve cared for my own dog, Brownie, from her puppy days and know how important patience, guidance, and consistent routines are. I follow the routines you’ve set for feeding, walks, playtime, and enrichment, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home. I treat your home with respect, keep things tidy, and pay attention to the little things that make pets feel relaxed and happy while your away.

About: Hello! My name is Sam and dogs have been my passion for as long as I can remember. I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager, and have always had a hand in caring for my family's pets. Within the last year I have had the opportunity to help whelp two litters of Bernese Mountain Dog puppies and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I love getting to know new dogs and cats, and have been known to leave my table at a restaurant to pet a dog I see through the window. I am the person at the party seeking out the pets so I can talk to them, rather than talk to the humans! I attend obedience classes with my own dogs weekly, and will be attending handling classes soon as well. Nothing brightens my day like being greeted by a dog, and getting to take care of them. We currently have three dogs and three cats in our home. Nothing is more important to me than your animal's comfort and safety.

“Responded quickly to a last minute booking. Showed up for a meet and greet. Took care of my puppers exactly as asked. On time. Easy recommendation. Thank you!”

“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”

“Erin is absolutely fantastic and our dogs love her! I was able to connect with her same day and she was over at a moments notice. Immediately trusted her with my high energy German short hair to run/walk off leash. Birdie loves Erin and so do we!”
