Dog Walking Northeast

“Kalle did a fantastic job, great communication and punctual. My dog came back exhausted after a good long walk. She was very caring and sweet with my dog.”

“I’m using crutches at the moment and needed someone to walk my dog. This was my first time using Rover; it’s been a great experience. Cat replied to my request quickly and on short notice, which I appreciated. My rescue dog, a terrier mix, is not around other people very often, but he took to Cat immediately and returned happy each of the three days that she walked him. It’s all gone so well that I have another week of walks scheduled with Cat.”

About: Hi there! I’m a 29 year old living in Reno for the past 10 years. I’m currently located in Northwest Reno area. I'm a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for all pets big or small! Since I was little I have been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. During college I worked at a boarding/training facility, volunteered at the Humane Society, and still love taking care of pets. I consider myself a patient, reliable, attentive individual who prioritizes open and honest communication so you will always be in the loop.   My dream is to have at least four dogs on property and to open a dog rescue to save, foster, and find loving homes for dogs in need. In the meantime I’m looking to help people with their pet care needs. Whether it’s a long walk, play session, a cuddle break, or sticking to specific routines I’m here to provide reliable, compassionate care and peace of mind.    I work from home full time! My work schedule is Tuesday-Friday 9-6pm.    For DAYCARE: Monday - Friday with occasional weekend availability.    FOR WALKING: I’m always trying to get more steps in! Saturday, Sunday, Monday are my most open days. Also open to midweek walks if you live nearby.   I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with lots of walking paths to mix up our daily walks. I also live about a 12 minute walk or 2 minute drive away from San Rafael Dog Park if your dog likes to run off leash, play ball, and meet new friends we can work that into the schedule.    Reach out with any questions you have and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work from home & have lots of flexibility in my schedule. I’m looking to go on more walks throughout the day and meet some new furry friends to hang out with. Please reach out with any questions you may have for me! I have a fenced backyard with grass for basking in the sun, playing fetch, and lots of potty breaks. I also live near a big dog park if your dog loves meeting new friends.

“Khine is so caring and goes above and beyond expectations when taking my dog out for walks! Super reliable and glad to have found ya, Khine. 😊”

About: As a college student and former four-year JROTC cadet, I've developed responsibility, reliability, and a strong work ethic. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats and have always loved caring for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or overnight companionship, I'll treat them like one of my own. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and enjoy keeping them active while making sure they're happy and secure. I know it can be stressful leaving your pet with someone new, so I'll provide regular photo updates and communicate with you throughout each visit. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your furry family member receives the best care possible. I am a part time college student prepared. My schedule varies throughout the semester, but I will ensure my bookings adhere to what works best. I will ensure the animal(s) has plenty of food, water and overall love. I enjoy playing with animals and ensuring they feel safe and have plenty of fun while together.

“Kesley is a lifesaver! She was able to do a walk on short notice and Roxi totally appreciated it (as did I). Would recommend and will book again!”

“Cat has been great with walking our reactive dog and we look forward having her do an overnight sit in our house soon!”

Liz M.

“Kat truly went above and beyond while caring for our girls over the weekend. Luna and Popis absolutely fell in love with her! She was punctual, respectful, and took the time to really understand our daily routines by asking thoughtful questions. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates while we were out of town—it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she was always easy and pleasant to talk to. Kat was our first Rover pet sitter, and she exceeded all expectations. We would absolutely book her again, and our girls would be thrilled to see her!”

About: I’ve had pets in my home since I was a little girl and have always been a huge animal lover. I started pet sitting in my sophomore year of high school and have since cared for a wide variety of dog and cat breeds! I’m currently working part time, Thursday-Monday from 3pm-10pm. I’ll still have free time to take good care of your pets! We can always work around my schedule. I will always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, whether I’m in your home or caring for them in mine. I try to stick to their usual routine and give them plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like family!

About: I love the outdoors and don’t mind getting active with your puppy! Whether it’s in home or taking them on an adventure, I’m ready to go! I have a very flexible schedule but do work nights. I can work with the client on their pets specific needs to make everyone comfortable and happy! I follow all instructions given and ensure that i communicate on how the animals are doing and can include photos or video chat to connect the owner while gone. At home my fur babies are given lots of attention and love and i would do the same for anyone else’s.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals combined with the reliability I’ve built as a teacher, coach, and athletic director. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful pups to older companions who need a gentler touch. I treat every visit like I’m caring for my own pet, providing safe, attentive, and engaging care that keeps them happy, active, and loved. I work as a teacher, coach, and athletic director at a high school, which gives me a flexible schedule, especially during the summer. This allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for pets, making sure they’re fed, played with, and happy. I prefer having plans a little in advance, so weekday visits are ideal, but I’m also happy to help on weekends when needed. I prioritize creating a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and at home. I enjoy visiting pets in their own residence so they can stay in their familiar space. I can take dogs for walks around the neighborhood, play with them in the front or backyard, or simply hang out and provide companionship where they feel most comfortable.

About: Hi, I go by Ashton. I began working with dogs in a professional setting in 2011 in Anchorage Alaska. I received my Certificate to be a Professional Dog Trainer through Animal Behavior College and immediately began working along side seasoned obedience, behavior modification and agility trainers. After some time I was able to begin mentoring new trainers in basic obedience, teaching them how to run puppy and adult basic obedience group classes. Though my profession career began in 2011, my passion for working with dogs truly started many years before that, here in Reno,NV, when I adopted a Chow Chow named Leo. I was just a teenager and Leo had come with several severe behavioral issues. He was both human and dog aggressive, destructive, not house broken, had sever separation anxiety, ran aware regularly and was leash reactive. Despite being uneducated in dog behavior at the time, I began to do my own research and was dedicated to teaching Leo how to feel safe, happy and confident so that he would overcome his many barriers. We walked every day and I tirelessly worked toward socializing him. When I moved to Alaska, I took Leo with me, he became my practice dog and we learned dog behavior together! In no time, he was attending puppy class with me, rolling on the floor letting puppies jump all over him. He was going on walks with other leash reactive dogs, HE was the calm presence that helped other dogs see that it was all okay. Leo learned to love people and other animals, he learn to trust and because of him and everything he overcame, my heart was set on making that difference in as many lives as I possibly could. In 2024, as a single parent, I made the difficult choice to "retire" from dog training to focus on feeding other passions and traveling with my daughter. During that time I have continued to have a lovely time with my own dogs and the dogs of close family members, but I am starting to feel the ache of wanting to help again. I have decided to offer limited services related to dog walking, drop in visits, play dates, nail trims and limited bathing/grooming. (Oh, did I mention I used to be a dog foster parent, groomer and kennel tech alongside my training?) I have outline my services in more detail below; however, feel free to reach out with any questions if you don't see what you are looking for! I look forward to hearing from you :) I am offering evening walks Monday - Friday, drop in visits and extended walks on Saturdays and Sundays. Dog Daycare is available for limited hours on Sundays and will be accepted on a case by case basis. Loose leash walking training can be provided in conjunction with walks at an additional cost. Please message for details. All dogs are required to be collared with identification for walks. I will request a microchip number if they have been chipped in the event of an emergency. For your dogs safety and mine: If your dog is an extreme puller, I may request to be allowed to use tools such as an easy walk harness and sort lead. If I do not have your dogs size, I may request you purchase one.

“She did a good job walking Yoshi. He Seemed to be pretty happy when I got back home. I Would recommend her as a dog walker”

“Diane is an exceptional dog walker who always goes above and beyond for my dog, Ziggy. She’s walked him multiple times, and her dedication and care truly stand out. Diane takes extra time to ensure Ziggy relieves himself and does an excellent job tiring him out before bringing him home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about his well-being, and her attention to detail gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Diane to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable dog walker!”
