Dog Walkers in Niles Valley, PA

About: Growing up, dogs have always been an integral part of my life. From the moment I was a child, I was fortunate to have a furry companion by my side. My first dog, a cheerful Labrador named Buddy, taught me the true meaning of loyalty and unconditional love. I remember how he would greet me with wagging tail every day after school, his eyes shining with excitement. As I grew older, my bond with dogs only deepened. Each dog brought its own unique personality and joy into my life. There was Max, the mischievous Beagle who loved to dig holes in the yard, and then there was Daisy, a gentle Golden Retriever who was the perfect therapy dog, always calming and comforting. These experiences shaped my understanding of patience, responsibility, and compassion. Having dogs my whole life has also meant facing some challenges—like caring for their health, training them, and saying goodbye when the time comes. Those moments were heartbreaking, but they also reinforced the preciousness of every moment spent together. Their unwavering loyalty and the pure happiness they radiate have left a lasting impact on me. Overall, my lifelong relationship with dogs has been a journey filled with love, learning, and unforgettable memories. They’ve been more than pets; they’ve been family, teachers, and best friends. I can’t imagine my life. I am currently off for the summer! Looking for someone to get exercise with and have fun! I have a pretty open schedule to fit all of your needs! Understanding the pet’s needs: Gather detailed info about the pet’s diet, routines, health issues, and preferences from the owner. Creating a safe environment: Ensure the space is free of hazards, and provide a comfortable area for eating, sleeping, and playing. Feeding and hydration: Follow the owner’s instructions for meals, treats, and fresh water. Exercise and mental stimulation: Engage the pet with appropriate play, walks, or training activities. Grooming and hygiene: Assist with brushing, bathing, or cleaning up after the pet as instructed. Medication and health monitoring: Administer medications if needed, and observe for signs of illness or discomfort, reporting any concerns to the owner. Security: Keep doors, gates, and fences secure; supervise outdoor activities.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.

About: We recently moved to the area. My daughter is 16 and dog sat/walked a lot where we used to live. We decided to start fresh in this new area together. So here we are!! I've had cats and dogs my entire life and my daughter has grown up with them as well! My daughter and I love animals and have a bit of a zoo ourselves right now. We treat pets like they are family... because they are! But we also like to travel and sometimes you can't take your pets with you. We know how stressful it is to try and find an affordable kennel and putting your pets in a kennel not knowing if and how your pet is being taken care of while you are gone. That is why we want to share our love of animals by taking care of your babies and giving you some peace of mind while you're away. I only work part time and have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets. I also have two 16 year olds that love pets and are more than willing to help out! I don’t have a fenced yard. So, I take the dogs out on leashes 4-6 times a day. They get exercise and I can see and make sure they’re going potty throughout the day.

About: I am a huge animal lover with professional experience as a dog walker/sitter. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. Ideally, I would like to find a few dogs that would like to be walked throughout the week or checked on. I have a 10 + years experience dog sitting short/long term. I'm able to provide great references for the pets I've cared for in the past! I am energetic, fun, and easy to get along with. I like to make the most out of our time together! I like to be outdoors as much as possible. If your dog is comfortable, I would love to take your dog to events, the dog park, and short hikes. Your dog will love the experience I will provide! Dogs usually immediately like me and feel comfortable around me. Dogs of all ages and sizes welcome! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your fue babies! I am currently working part-time. I have plenty of time, as well as a flexible schedule, to attend to your pet with my undivided attention. I pride myself on treating clients pets the same as my own, with lots of love and affection! I am respectful of my clients homes, as well as their desired schedules.

About: Ever since I was 10 years old and even younger I have been taking care of animals! From my own , to friends and families as well. Animals aren’t just pets, they are apart of our family! They make life better , I am passionate about making sure they are taken care of and in good hands at all times. I currently have animals of my own, and I take pride into making sure they know they’re loved, fed, and exercised every single day too. I will happily come and let your pets out, stay there and make sure they are fed and watered, let them play for awhile and/or give them a walk to get them out and about. If they would come to my house, I have a fenced part of the yard, 3 other sweet fur babies to help keep your pet company, and land to let them play around safely and get exercise in daily.

About: We live on 4.25 acres. We do have a large back deck that is attached to the house. Our dogs love going on the the deck to sit and bath in the sun. I have had all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I am 34 years old that is wanting to do something that I love. I am married of 12 years, we have a 14 year old son, and have 3 pomeranian/papillon. We are very pet friendly. The dogs are free to roam as they please. We have potty trained our 3 dogs. We let our dogs on the furniture and through out our house, we believe in on open environment. Our dogs go outside as often as they like, we do not have a doggy door, but I do take them out every few hours when I am home. The dogs always have food and water that are out all the time. I drive a Chevy Traverse, for when I need to either pick dogs up from their home's or for when we leave the dogs have somewhere to sit. My services are great, because here in our house we love animals of all shapes and sizes. I take pride in taking care of our animals and yours as well. My husband works part time, and I am also working. But don't worry taking care of your fur babies will not get in the way. Our back deck is fenced in on the top. We I do let the dogs outside as often as they like (typically every few hours.) Our dogs roam the house as they please and they always have food and water out.

About: With recent puppy experience and a background as a nurse, I will care for you doggos exactly as you would. Be at peace while traveling knowing your pet family is in good hands. :) I have a full time job, however as a nurse I only work 3 nights a week—the others are available. I can be flexible as necessary! I provide attentive services—paying special attention to diets, behaviors, continuing training, and potty habits. If your dog has special needs, I am happy to accommodate!

“Maggie is a great find!!! She is new to TX but done Rover in her previous state. I used her to do a dog walk at the park and my dogs had a great time. They were very excited to meet her and they listened to her. I often need a house sitter and we are going to book her this weekend. I highly recommend Maggie.”

You can count on me to be reliable and loving to your pet!! Prefer taking care/walking dogs that weigh 30 lbs or more mainly because I’m used to bigger dogs.
