Dog Walking Northampton

“I’m glad to have come across Rodney. From the time that he met Diamond through the last walk, he followed the instructions I left which I greatly appreciated. He was fantastic and I plan to book him again in the future.”

About: I used to have another rover account and dog watching was my full time job for about 3 years. I quit for a little bit but now I am a stay at home mom and have a 4 1/2 year old golden who loves everyone and just wants some friends to play with. I am a stay at home mom and have a dog of my own so adding a few more never hurts. My golden daisy is my child she is so spoiled and if you trust me with your dog they will be too. She is full of energy and loves all dogs and people haha. She does not know what stranger danger is. I have a huge fenced in back yard. I am also able to split up my house to have dogs in separate areas when they need a break from each other. This will be my full time job aside from being a mom so I am always home.

About: I've owned and cared for many kinds of animals: cats, dogs, birds, other caged, and aquatic (freshwater & salt) pets. With vet tech experience, I have a trained eye for catching and often solving problems. As a horticulturist, I can even care for your plant collection. I simply adore most living things! Being semi-retired and self-employed gives me freedom to create my own schedule. I'm able to fit most timeframes except prior to 9 am as I have my own menagerie to care for first thing! Having had VIP clients in DC for so long, safety and security are ingrained in me. It's critical for your animals, your home, and my own well-being. I follow your instructions or my own protocols as needed, since every pet and home is unique. In my own home, your pet would have their own separate room/space and/or be closely monitored when in the rest of the house. If I accept a mini dog for boarding, they will be on a leash at all times when outside for potty breaks or a walk.

About: Hi! I’m Kyla! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I even volunteered at an animal shelter when I was younger, and I’ve spent about 6 years caring for dogs. I also worked at a veterinary office for a few years, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have such a huge soft spot for animals because they really are the sweetest and most misunderstood babies EVEEEERRRR! 😂❤️ I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a good walk, playtime, cuddles, or just some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. They’ll get plenty of love, attention, and probably way too many compliments from me! 🐶💕 I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your fur babies the attention they deserve! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I’ll always make sure I have enough time to give your pet a proper visit instead of rushing in and out. 🐾❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! I’m very patient and attentive, and I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for a walk. I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, and anything else are secure, and I’ll keep you updated so you know your baby is safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own! 🐶🐱💕

About: I've taken care of pets from dogs to lizards since I was 12, and have been doing drop-ins and house-sitting for family, friends, and my community for as long as I've been able to drive. I'm able to give meds for older dogs with more needs, and have trained my own dogs well in obedience training, so I have plenty of experience with a firm voice for more unruly dogs that need a little extra attention. I'm good with all animals (even the wild ones), and have experience caring for animals that need to stay separated, and am willing and able to adapt to any family I need. I currently am between jobs, the only duty I have is taking care of my own pets (amd occasionally younger siblings) so I have plenty of time to look after and care for pets I have a gentle hand and a firm voice, and have experience with obedience-training dogs particularly, and have faith in my ability to care for even the more unruly of pets. I am comfortable with crate-training and crate-trained dogs, as well as shutting them in their own room when no one is present in the home. I also have good leash experience, so walks would be easy and comfortable for me.

About: I’ve owned pets my whole life so I understand the importance in taking care of them. My dogs are my children and I will always take the best care of them. I’ve had many cats when I was younger but I have 2 dogs here with me and 1 back home with my mom. Two of the three dogs I have are rescues, and I’ve owned dogs of all sizes. I am an Air Force veteran and I am currently a PRN Medical Assistant. I’m free most days at any time, will keep my calendar updated as best as I can, to meet all of your pets needs. I am newer to drop-in visits on this app but I’ve done it plenty of times before joining the app. I am very reliable and will always keep you updated with your pet(s).

About: Hi! My name is Justin Wright, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a passion for providing safe, loving care for pets. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and I’m a father of two Golden Retrievers and an uncle of 2 Cocker spaniels and a Toy Poodle.

I am available for morning and evening visits, with some afternoons depending on my counseling schedule. My weekends are completely open and I am happy to help with walks and drop-ins and providing companionship for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my own dogs, I handle walks, grooming, brushing, nail care, and maintaining healthy routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and needs, and I take the time to make sure each animal feels comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet like they are my own and will provide dependable, attentive care while you’re away.

“Miesha has been walking my yorkie, Penny for almost a year now. She has done a wonderful job and is so kind with her. Even on days when she doesn’t want to walk she plays with her. Miesha is always flexible and makes sure Penny gets the exercise, love, and attention she needs. Would highly recommend her to take care of your pup!”

About: Hi! I’ve been working in animal welfare for over ten years. I previously worked in a small boarding facility and also helped occasionally with a large scale open boarding facility! I have been working and training with dogs since I was 9y old (over twenty years of dog training and competing!). I currently train with my two german shepherds in dog sport now since 2015. I have a quiet household with no children and I only sit one family’s pets at a time. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like individuals and give them what they need then reach out to me! I’m well versed in working breeds, can help with training needs, and manage many different kinds of behavioral quirks in my house as well (from reactivity to resource guarding). I work full time currently and would love to provide boarding for dogs that will be safe, fun, and enjoyable! They will become like my own while at my house and treated with the utmost respect and care. I have a 4ft fenced yard for your dog to enjoy while staying with me and I never leave dogs unsupervised outside to their own devices. I also love to walk pups at the park up the street when I’m home! Dogs are kenneled while I’m not home as a safety measure or depending on the health/size of your dog I could potentially baby gate in the kitchen. I have a large dog pen as well for pups that aren’t destructive, but would like more space when I’m not home!

About: You can finally relax knowing your pet will be safe, treated like family and given all the love. Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom located in the Hilton area of Newport News. I’m active, reliable, and available from early mornings until late afternoon. I’ve cared for everything from a home full of 7 cats and 4 labradoodles (all at once!) to countless pets belonging to friends, family, and friends of friends. I have a 6 year old son with special needs who absolutely adores pets so if you’re looking for boarding, please make sure your pet is child-friendly. During the day however, he’s in school and I will be able to cover those who may not be small child friendly. I don’t mind hopping in the car to take your pup to the park or on a trail if they need more than just a quick lap around the block. I’m a big morning person who thrives on routine but, full disclosure, I avoid rush hour or late-night driving since my son is with me after 3:30 p.m. Monday–Friday. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or a place to stay while you’re away, I am here to help. Just drop me and line❤️ I’m available Mon-Fri from 5am-5pm for walks, parks, even just a home visit and car ride if your pet just needs some 1:1 during work hours. Weekends are limited so send me a message during the week to check availability. I have a large yard but it is not fenced. My son and I enjoy walking whenever we can around our neighborhood in Hilton. I have a pet and baby proof clean home with a gentle loving child. Cleanliness is of the utmost importance to me so you won’t have to worry about anyone making a mess and it not being cleaned up.

“Both my dog and I think Claire is the best! She was professional, prompt and a good communicator. And - she went above and beyond - giving Coltrane long walks and lots of attention. I totally recommend her and Coltrane gives her a big paws up, too!”

About: I've been working with and studying animal behavior since I was 10 years old, and my passion for dogs has only grown stronger over the years. With over a decade of hands-on experience in training and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and how to effectively communicate with them. I currently work full-time for a mobile dog grooming company, where I handle dogs daily with patience, confidence, and care. Whether you're looking for someone to walk your dog, provide basic training, or help with behavior issues, you can trust that your furry friend is in experienced and loving hands. I also offer a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most needs with plenty of notice. Whether you're looking for dependable dog walking, basic obedience training, or help with behavior issues, I’m here to give your pup the attention and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. When in my care, you can rest easy knowing they’re in a secure, loving environment. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where they can play safely, and the property is equipped with cameras for added peace of mind. I’m committed to following any specific dietary needs or routines your dog may have, and I make sure they get their daily walks for both exercise and mental stimulation. If your pup needs regular brushing or combing, I’m happy to handle that too—keeping them clean, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

About: I've loved dogs my entire life and have grown up with them since I was a toddler. Since December 2024, I've worked at Pawscienda in Montpelier, VA, where I've been trained as a Lead Kennel Technician. In that role, I care for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and even the occasional bunny! My experience includes feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior and health, maintaining clean and safe environments, and providing plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. I also have a one year old, fully trained puppy of my own, which has given me even more hands-on experience with training, patience, and understanding a dog's individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs special medical care, I'll make sure they receive the same attention and care I'd want for my own. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. My classes are Mondays and Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and Fridays from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Outside of class, I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I'm happy to work with owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I will also be available some weekends and can accommodate morning, evening, or overnight care if necessary. No matter what, i'll always make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. At this time, I only offer care in my clients' homes, allowing pets to stay in the environment they're most familiar with and comfortable in. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I'll follow your instructions carefully. From feeding schedules and walks to medications and any special care they may need. I will treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for every step of the way.

“We are so thankful we found Marisol! She was able to help us immensely with our hound who is high energy and can be a bit of a handful on the leash. She expertly handles him and ensures they have an enjoyable, safe, and energy burning walk! She is kind, communicative, and was able to work with our schedule. Highly recommend! Thank you Marisol!”
