Dog Walking Normandy

“I am so thankful for Shannon! She gives my pup the quick exercise that she needs while I'm at work. She's very easy to communicate with and sends me great updates! My furbaby loves her walks with Shannon.”

About: I have five cats and a dog currently and am always looking to play or help take care of a furry friend. I have previously worked in a daycare as well which helped me get a lot of experience in caretaking. I am not a permanent employee anywhere and have a flexible schedule so i’m able to work my plans around the needs of any pet. All work is either online or gig based so I am always available! I have the energy to keep up with hyper dogs but i also love the lazy dogs/ cats who just want me to pet them and hang out around them. whether your pet needs a workout or a nap session, i can keep up with it!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From horses to guinea pigs, I’ve had experience with all kinds of animals and truly love every minute spent with them. I have two cats of my own, Miku and Sassy, who are both very loved (and very spoiled!). Because of that, I completely understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to give your pets the same attention, affection, and care I give my own :) I currently work remotely so I have plenty of time to care for pets and give them the attention that they will need while they are with me. I recently moved to Manchester. I have a large yard have plenty of walking trails and places for the pets to be outside near me. I will make sure they get all of the outside time they need.

About: I’ve lived on a farm my whole life and have cared for about every creature under the sun! I love all animals big and small! I’m not afraid to work hard and get dirty so your pet is comfortable, loved, and cared for properly! I’m a full time student during the school year and interning part time this summer so I’ll have plenty of free time to look after your pets whenever needed! I will follow whatever safety instructions you require to keep your furry friend safe and sound wether that be walking around the block or playing in the backyard.

“Melanie has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs! Very communicative and sends lots of pictures and updates. It's been a great relief to us to find someone to help with our two when I'm in the office or we're away, especially since one has to have medicine 3x a day every day. Can't recommend enough!”

About: Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m 19 year old college student with years of experience owning and caring for dogs. I’ve grown up around dogs and have always been very involved in their daily care, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I’m very active and truly enjoy long walks and playtime, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I also own a large dog myself, so I’m comfortable handling bigger breeds and understand the responsibility that comes with them. I absolutely love puppies and have the patience and energy needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for. While I don’t offer overnight stays, I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow any instructions you provide to keep your dog’s routine consistent. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog attention, play, and exercise. I do have classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, but I’m flexible and available the rest of the week to meet your pet’s needs. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. During visits, I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and affection. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get the activity they need. I’m comfortable handling large dogs and energetic puppies, and I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and your pet’s happiness while in my care.

About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.

About: I worked in the vet industry since I was about 17 years old as a veterinary technician. I found another full time job in the healthcare industry in Cancer research about a year and a half ago. But I still kept my veterinary job until recently. I left the vet industry to open up my availability to be around animals in a more intimate way such as dog walking, house sitting, etc. I am experienced with most animals since I grew up with a lot of my own. Over the years my family has owned ducks, chickens, horses, chinchillas, cats, sugar gliders, dogs, bearded dragons, geckos, rabbits, cows and guinea pigs so I am experienced with several different types of animals! I’m currently working full time but I have a work from home job that is flexible so I am able to bring my laptop and work phone. I go in office to work in Nashville a 1 day out of the week but I can always change the days around so I am very flexible! I know pet safety so I will keep a dog on the leash at all times unless there is a fence to put them in. Also if I need to bring any animals to my house I have a crate I can keep them in. I have a yard with a fence that I would watch them under my direct supervision at all times.

About: My love for dogs started at a young age, reading about different dog breeds and being fascinated by their unique sizes, personalities, abilities, and the purposes they were originally bred for. I genuinely enjoy working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Through my own training experience with my pal, I've learned to appreciate patience, consistency, discipline, and most importantly, creating a positive experience for our four-legged companions! One of my proudest achievements before entering military service was training my own dog to successfully pass the AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test with flying colors! It made me realize just how far I'd come in training my own dog and the potential I had to further develop my dog training skills. Looking toward the future, I aspire to continue developing my dog training skills, with the long-term goal of working with dogs that support hospitals, my fellow veterans, law enforcement, and wounded warriors. I am a full-time online student but I do have lots of time to train my own dogs and increase my proficiency on dog training and walking I am always diligent to make sure my dogs always have appropriate outside time. They are always outside and always play fetch, nose training exercises, and repetitive basic obedience training. I will make sure your dog's always taken care of with professionalism and care!

About: I have taken care of animals in many forms for over 20 years. I have an acre of fenced-in yard with two dogs that are dog friendly, up to date on shots, and either spayed or neutered. ~ Your fur baby will enjoy their time playing with my dogs, or with me staying at your home and treating your home and your fur baby as one of my own. ~PSI Member and working on basic First Aid and Emergency Care for Animals. ~Willing to provide medications and injections to those babies in need. I work from home so your pet will get any amount of attention it needs. My husband is also a Rover approved sitter, so your fur baby will have someone with them at all times, for those rare times I need to run an errand. If I come to your home your pet will receive the same care and respect as work allows for flexibility to be there with them, giving them full attention. I have an acre fenced yard with outside toys as well as a drinking fountain and plenty of room inside for them to take naps and stay cool and dry on rainy days. We usually go out every 2-4 hours for potty breaks and play time.

“Ashley has been a repeat walker for my foster Bull Terrier Ezequiel & she is so accommodating in every possible way. She even gives him fresh water & let’s him pee wherever he feels like marking his territory. That’s is a lot of compassion and patience. Thank you so much Ashley! You’re the BEST!”
