Dog Walking North City Farms

About: Hi there! I'm a graduate student with a lifelong passion for animals and over 17 years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up, I cared for a German Shepherd with special needs, which taught me how to adapt to each pet's unique requirements. Today, I share my home with a wonderful cat who keeps me company during study sessions. I'm the go-to pet sitter among my friends and family, and honestly, it's the highlight of my week! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I'm easy-going and attentive, and I understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime, or your cat prefers a calm presence and meal service, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit their personality and any special needs they may have. I'd love to meet you and your pet! Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requirements. I'm here to help make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a part-time graduate student, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule and can accomodate based on your and your pet'sneeds. Let me know what works best for you! When pet-sitting in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for your pet while respecting your space. I follow all care instructions carefully, maintain your pet's regular routine (feeding times, walks, play schedules), and ensure all doors, windows, and gates are properly secured. I'm attentive to potential hazards and keep harmful items out of reach. I'll send you regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet has any special needs, medical requirements, or anxiety triggers, I'm happy to accommodate and adapt my approach. Your home and pet's safety are my top priorities.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I now have a rescue dog that is 111lbs, & at 6 years old still thinks he’s a puppy. So I can handle a lot of dog sizes, weights & personalities. Here for walks or check ins & feeding if you’re out of town or need help. Message me! 🐕🦮🐕‍🦺 I am available for afternoon and evening walks, check ins, feeding and play time. I am also available on weekends and Fridays after 12pm. Just let me know what works for you! I have a large dog at home that is a lot to handle so boarding in my home would be difficult. I am trustworthy and caring so you can trust your furry family member in my care.

“Ashley was flexible in meeting with me for an introduction on rather short notice. Sadie was much calmer when I got home the day that Ashley walked her, so that is proof she did a great job!”

About: I've been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life! I grew up with both cats and dogs, and have experience volunteering in animal shelters and watching friends' pets. I currently own both a dog and cat, and am happy to take care of both. I understand that pets are family and I'll treat them like my very own. I will provide a calm, reliable, caring experience for your pets. I am currently able to accept short-term overnights (3-4 nights), with the possibility of a longer commitment with drop-in visits. My job is somewhat flexible, but your pet must be ok with staying alone for at least 4 hours at a time. My current job provides me with a very flexible schedule during summer months. I can work most hours of the day (mornings, afternoons, evenings) and am more than happy to book any last-minute requests for sitting or walks. I have a car so I can easily drive to clients' homes for walks, check-ins or overnight stays. I have experience running my own small business, and I understand the importance of organization, communication and reliability with my clients. I love animals and getting to know them, and I will take care of your animals as if they're my own.

“Krystal was absolutely wonderful with Max! She walked him mornings and evenings while I was away and sent great updates. Max is a sweet boy, but it always takes a special person to make him feel completely comfortable, and Krystal did just that. She is reliable, caring, and super easy to communicate with. I will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life! I was raised caring for our pets as part of the family and I hope to get the chance to extend my care and love to your furry family members! I also have a 1.5 year old mini dachshund named Pabu - so I have experience with the puppy years! I love to try to fulfill as many of your pet’s needs as possible - playing tug of war, setting up sniffing games, and even teaching them a trick or two for their mental stimulation. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I currently work T/W/Th so have plenty of flexibility during the rest of the week when it comes to caring for your furry friends! My puppy is crate trained and I’m walking distance from a dog park. For your furry friends, I’m comfortable walking them along new or familiar routes and have experience with reactive dogs if they need a little extra attention to the surroundings! I also have experience setting mental stimulation games!

“I can’t say enough about how pleased I am with Bari and the way she took care of my border collie Woody. You can tell she has a genuine love for dogs and she takes her rover responsibilities very seriously. During my trip I was always in the know about how my dog was doing because Bari reached out to me each time she tended to him with texts and pictures which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands and being taken care of exceptionally well. I highly recommend Bari.”

About: I have worked at a boarding facility for 4 years where I have plenty of experience caring for dogs of various breeds with different needs. I have flexibility with the time I have available to check in on your pet and or walk them. I can also stay at your place with your pet so they have overnight care. I always make sure to prioritize caring for your pet and keeping them as comfortable and happy as possible. I can follow instructions thoroughly to care for your pet and your home. I will ensure everything is cared for and watched over just as if it were my own.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of types of dogs and cats. I have experience giving medicine to both dogs and cats ( I have experience with the cat burrito maneuver). I am patient with animals and do my best to meet them at their level. I am an owner of a high energy dog and she has taught me so much about talking care of pets. During the week, I have availability for lunchtime walks and evening hang. On the weekends, my schedule is much more open and I can be available whenever you need me. When taking a dog into a backyard I always make sure they are supervised. My pup is a jumper and can easily jump a fence. So I know what to look out for. When in a new spaces I always walk the fence line to check for any holes or loose boards. With indoor cats, I enter and exits the house carefully so nobody escapes. I understand cats can be shy, so i usually pick a spot and hang out quietly there and wait for the cat to come to me.

About: I’ve taken care of my friends pets over the past 9yrs so I consider them my babies as well! My friends appreciate that which is why I’ve been trusted by them many times over the years. I’m free full time for the time being and open to over nights as well. I’m also available for drop in pet sitting as needed too. I always make sure pets are let out and fed as well as receive plenty of love, cuddles and attention. I’ve found over the years that those are the basic necessities when it comes to pet care.
