Dog Walking North Ridge

About: Hi, I am Belle! I am a full-time pet sitter. I have always had a love for animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur-baby especially, with a stranger. I love & treat my clients’ pets as my own. I have a bachelor's degree in animal behavior. I have taken various animal classes such as animal enrichment, welfare, cognition, dog/cat behavior, and positive reinforcement training classes. I worked at a dog & cat boarding facility/doggy daycare. I interned at the SPCA Serving Erie County with their behavior department working with the dogs & cats. I have worked with many fearful, reactive, and under socialized dogs. I am experienced in administering medications. I mostly pet sit dogs & cats but I have also cared for fish, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, chickens, and would be open to other species! I am currently a cat mom of 5.

About: I’ve been a pet-parent of both dogs and cats since I was a kid, and I have experience watching other people’s pets, too! I only work part time, so i’m available most times/days of the week. My schedule is also very flexible, so I can always move things around to prioritize your pet. I have a fully fenced-in side and backyard with lots of room for running and playing. I also have stairs for getting onto high furniture for dogs with accessibility needs.

About: My fiancé and I are animal lovers through and through! We have 4 babies of our own. One of which is a service animal! Tahmi is a disabled veteran with years of animal experience from animal control. Marisa has years of experience volunteering and training. We are warm, kind hearted and compassionate people who would love your dogs as our own. We love to be outside every chance we get; meaning we can offer your pup(s) the exercise and play he/she needs! We’re homebody’s too and don’t mind staying in and giving your pup all the cuddles! We offer a variety of services at an affordable price! Please reach out with any questions or concerns regarding our services! I hope we can be of service to you and your fur babies! With 3 pups of our own, pet care is embedded into our day to day lives! Our dogs are a high priority and we treat them as such! Which would leave us no problem to do the same for any client of ours and their pups! It’s their (dogs) world, we just live in it! :) We make sure to stay on track with feeding schedules and potty breaks. Exercise is a must-do while your pet is in our care! Safety and comfort are our number one priority and we do everything we can to make sure your pup experiences both during they stay!

About: I’m a former veterinary technician, aspiring veterinarian, dog mom and animal lover. I walked with Wag for 5 years and have owned pets my whole life! I work but am available typically every 4-8 hours during the day and some overnights to care for your pet. I am available everyday, weekends and holidays. I know how to handle and work with dogs of all breeds, temperament and size, along with cats! I would love to check in on your pets in your home, take them for walks, or anything else you may need

About: I have had pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to guinea pigs and hamsters. My entire family is incredibly passionate about animals and I’ve always answered the question “what do you want to do when you grow up?” with “pet cats and dogs.” Taking care of animals is incredibly fulfilling for me and I rely on them just as much as they rely on me. I have two cats and two dogs and they’re my entire world, and I just want to spread the love I have for animals as much as I can. I am currently unemployed so just working side jobs and have some appointments here and there so I have plenty of time to care for your babies. I have two cats and two dogs of my own that I spoil day in and day out so I’m used to all that having pets brings with it.

About: What sets me apart is my versatile experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Beyond daily care and managing my own two-year-old Siberian mix, Jiaozi, I specialize in positive reinforcement training for puppies and administering gentle, patient care for senior animals. As a doctoral student, my schedule offers a great deal of flexibility, making it easy to seamlessly integrate pet care into my day. My daily routine is already anchored by morning and evening care for my two-year-old Siberian mix, Jiaozi. Because I spend a significant amount of time studying and working from home, I can comfortably accommodate midday dog walks, frequent potty breaks, and consistent feeding schedules while providing plenty of companionship. Whether in your home or mine, safety and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow your instructions regarding feeding, walking, and house rules to ensure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment. I also treat your space with the utmost respect and keep it clean. In my own home, I maintain a calm and safe atmosphere. I have a two-year-old Siberian mix named Jiaozi, so any visiting pets will have careful, supervised introductions, and I can easily separate spaces if needed to ensure everyone remains comfortable and stress-free. No matter the location, I always send plenty of photo and text updates so you can have complete peace of mind.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog owner with 4+ years of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve had dogs since I was very young, and I’ve been heavily involved in their daily care, training, and exercise routines. With my current dog, I worked closely with two professional trainers, which gave me a strong understanding of behavior, structure, and positive reinforcement. I also have experience with rescue dogs, including one with a history of abuse, so I’m especially patient and attentive with anxious or sensitive dogs who need a calmer approach. Over the past few years, I’ve provided walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays for family friends and referrals. I’m comfortable with everything from basic routines to more involved care, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, exercised, and well loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to follow any training routines or reinforce commands you’re currently working on. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated so you always have peace of mind. I’m currently working 2 jobs part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I’m a photographer, so my schedule varies a bit and can be flexible, so reach out and I can very likely work with your needs! I deliver thoughtful, routine-focused care in your home, with close attention to your pet’s needs, behaviors, and comfort. You can expect a clean space, clear communication, and dependable updates.

About: I’m a pet owner myself and know how important our fur babies are to us! I currently have some time in my schedule that allows me to help others out with their babies as well! I have most mornings and evenings open. Allowing me to do drop in visits. Whether you’re out of town and want someone to check in or need daily drop ins to make sure the babies are good, I can be there! I care for pets in clients homes and communicate with them on their needs for each pet. Im comfortable distributing medication, handling dietary restrictions, waste removal, and much more!

About: I have mg dog that I take cares everyday. I will treat every pet as if they were my own and always make their comfort and safety my top priority. I have a flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walking throughout the week, including weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), walks, and any special routines.

I love the animal for who it is! I look at all animals needs and wants all very differently because not one has the same. We all have feelings and even our fury friends do! I will provide whatever it takes for your fur baby to be happy, comfortable and in a healthy environment. I have been pet sitting, dog walking, exercising, training, keeping your fur baby active, doing therapy with their back legs, joints and mobility, administering medicine, shots, clipped nails, cleaned ears, bathed, brushing, feeding, constantly changing water, keep hydrated, pampering and just loving your animal like he or she needs to be. I took some classes and this one I took at my vet which I was amazed because they taught me how to drain the adrenaline glands and some dogs have a severe issue with that quite often. My dog does! There are classes that you can go in and they will take the time and show you for some things. I like to participate in these classes so I have knowledge when it comes time to if anything happens. I started dog walking at 12 years old. A long with other jobs of course throughout life. I have been pet sitting for almost 15 years. I am a full time pet sitter with all of your needs and wants for your fur baby as if your fur baby was my own! You see......

I travel and do pet sitting, I stay over night a lot. The most was a week that I worked for with a client and stayed at their house the whole time. I will also do day sitting or check-ins but mostly overnight and pet sitting during the day at my clients homes. Traveling is a lot and a lot of people like when you stay at their homes with their animals and care for them. The animals are safe and feel comfortable in their own environment. I make sure that all my fur babies are cared for, loved, given the attention that they need and all their needs are met. I am a traveling pet sitter now. I like to stay within the 30 mile radius even though I have done some farther away, but for now I want to stay with the 39 mile radius. I use to board animals in my home until I sold my house just recently. Now, I travel to my clients homes. I mostly stay overnight and for more than one day because my clients go away on vacation. I do many services for my clients. I walk your animal, feed your animal whether if it’s can food, dry food or home made food which I have made home made food for my fur babies before and still do. I administer medication to animals, groom them, brush, bathe, keep them active and help them with their mobility, Play, do fun activities with my fur babies, train, keep them busy and entertained and plenty more. I make sure your animal is well cared for, loved like he or she was my own, given the attention it needs, Be happy and even more. I go over and beyond for my fur babies and each and everyone always feels safe, comfortable, loved, happy and etc….. I have a lot of clients and some of them I care for during the Summer when they go away a lot and some of my clients I care for during the week and on wknds. I am very easy to work with because I am a good person. Good people work with good people. All my clients know how caring I am and feel good about leaving their loved ones with me.

“Natalie is great. She let my dog get comfortable with her before taking him for his walk. She was on time and put me at ease as I entrusted my baby to her. I highly recommend her.”
