Dog Walking in North Kingstown

About: I have over 12 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide feeding, walks, drop in visits, playtime, enrichment, and medication administration with patience and care. I grew up with two Dachshunds and two Border Collies, which gave me experience with both energetic working dogs and smaller companion breeds. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from pugs to Bernese Mountain Dogs, as well as young cats, senior cats, and foster cats preparing for their forever homes. What sets me apart is my calm, structured, and dependable approach. I understand how important routines are for pets and work hard to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also clean, tidy, respectful in clients’ homes, and committed to providing trustworthy care you can rely on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining consistent care schedules. I am a teacher with the summers off. I prioritize reliability, communication, and routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m flexible with walks, drop ins, and feeding schedules. I make sure each pet gets individual attention, exercise, affection, and care based on their specific needs and energy level. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any household rules to keep pets comfortable. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior so I can respond calmly and appropriately to their needs. I keep homes clean and tidy, ensure doors and gates are secure. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect.

About: Hi my name is Dee and I am your local pet sitter and dog walker! I am friendly, confident, and knowledgeable when it comes to animals. I am very comfortable working with most species domestic and exotic. - I have previously worked for a local animal hospital and now I work at an animal shelter. I am familiar and pretty hands on with basic pet care. I have been trained to handle skittish or difficult dogs and cats. I can administer medicines via oral or injection, and perform pedicures/baths etc. I am also animal CPR and first AID certified as of 2020. I was a dog groomer in Florida for two years before moving back to my home state, Rhode Island. Because of COVID - 19 I am taking precautionary measures and will wear a mask if needed. - Things you can expect while your fur baby’s are in my care, walks around the neighborhood or to local trails. (If okay with owner) Backyard play time. Naps, snacks, and lots of love! - I put the animals first and can always guarantee the owners wishes. I am a trustworthy individual who will take the time out of my day to gladly help you out with your fur babies. - I do house visits, or I can stay for the night. If you need assistance with pick ups or drop offs, I offer those services upon request. Send me a request, and I am sure to make things happen! I am available Wednesday’s and Thursday’s all day. Friday - Sunday’s 5pm and after. I can work with you on times I would just need to know a schedule a day or two in advance. I can try to fit in same day requests, but I do work and cannot always guarantee same day appointments. I’d care for your pet like they were my own! With love affection and patience. I understand every pet is different and they all require different care. Whether it’s walks, just hanging out with them at home, playing in the yard or cleaning up after them.

“Gabriela got along well with my dogs but I never received any information or photos from her during the entire time she was dog sitting. When I asked her, she said everything was fine. When I asked her to send photos and mentioned that I hadn't received anything, she said she was under a lot of personal stress. Everyone goes through bad times and I hope she's okay.”

About: I'm pretty new to Rover, but I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience with dogs, cats, hedgehogs, fish, and other small pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including seniors, and have experience administering oral medications, handling emergencies, and providing daily exercise and enrichment. I’m happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before services to learn your pet’s routine and ensure they feel comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out, my goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority, and I treat every home with respect—often leaving it a little cleaner than I found it. I am working a part time job during the weekdays, usually the shifts are 11am-4 or 5pm, and on the weekends I work longer shifts which vary in time. However... I have many weeks off here and there so I am free a lot of the time. My job is pretty flexible most of the time so I can leave work to walk your pups and make sure they are okay and then go back to work. My yard has an Invisible Fence for my dogs which works out quite nicely and whenever I have other people's dogs over I make sure to keep them on a leash so no accidents happen. That being said, I live with my parents so I would be more geared towards servicing in home visits and stays with your pets at your home.

“Christina goes above and beyond to take good care of Juniper, and I can tell that Juniper loves their walks together by all the awesome pictures she shares!”

“Highly recommend Lauren! She's been walking Ren for a few weeks now and he looks forward to her arrival each week. Lauren also always makes time to say a quick hello to my older dog as well, who doesn't need the extra walk like Ren does, but LOVES the extra attention.”

About: Hi there! I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age. I began professionally sitting about 4 years ago now. I have experience with all breeds of dogs, from English Mastiffs to Cockapoo’s. I have references from families I have sat for outside of this app, so feel free to ask for those if you’d like. Aside from sitting and dog walking, I am willing to provide other tasks around your home if needed while you are away. I have a very flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your fur babies when needed! Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide stability to your pups already established day to day schedule. While taking care of your fur baby, I always ensure to follow care directions to the T so your pet is as comfortable as possible while you are away.

About: Ever since a young age, I have been taking care of animals. For 14 years, I had a white German Shepherd, and she was truly part of the family. Starting in high school I would volunteer to pet sit for anyone who needed my services! No matter big or small, I love them all. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pets of my own currently, so I have to get my puppy loving from other peoples pets! I’d love to get the chance to help you out! Right now I’m currently available after 4:30 PM during the weekdays. If given enough notice, I’m available, full weekends as well. I know most people love planning ahead and so do I! Considering your pet will be in their own home, I will do my best to stick to their usual routine. Whether it’s letting them out on a leash or in your fenced in backyard. If your pet uses a cage, I will follow whatever protocol you choose!
