Dog Walkers in Northfield, NY

About: I'm very good at training dogs. I have a lot of patience with dogs. I talk dog. Dogs like me and I like them. I like walking dogs as my exercise. I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix. Any size dog is fine I have 8 acres for them to play and if you have a water dog I have a low creek to play in

About: Experienced animal caregiver to small, large and exotic animals with specialized training including but not limited to: Administering medications, feeding, wound care, vaccinations, coordinating treatments, welfare, quality belly rubs, training, geriatric care, caring for multiple animals at a time, and caring for animals with heightened needs (ie prosthetics, recumbent care, vision loss, abuse/neglect cases). I am currently enrolled in a veterinary technician program. I was previously a vet assistant and medical coordinator at an animal sanctuary. I am Fear Free certified and hold certifications in pasture and grazing management. I am apt to accommodate the many idiosyncrasies of animals and their people alike. I will give full attention to your loved one and adhere to their personalities. Leaving your animal companion at home for a few hours or for a long weekend need not be stressful or worrisome. Apart from your animal's safety, my ultimate goal is to provide a loving environment. All-season runner, musician, treat carrier and eager to befriend your animal! *I respect the environment and always carry a poop bag with me* I am an animal caregiver who is pursuing licensing as a veterinary technician in the hopes of continuing a lifelong career serving the beautiful creatures who inhabit this earth. Pet care is what I do! I will adhere to client and animal needs and establish healthy communication. I live in a safe neighborhood with plenty of walking areas. My house is a pet-friendly household with separate rooms for any animal who may require their own space.

About: When I was a kid I dreamed of getting a dog, but my brother's allergies meant that was out of the question. My solution to this was volunteering to walk my friends' dogs or offering to pet sit whenever I could. I put up flyers in my busy apartment building and started getting some steady clients, which quickly became one of my favorite after school activities. I’ve also had the incredible opportunity to work on an animal sanctuary that specialized in caring for animals with behavioral and special needs. I was really able to expand on my skills and put them to the test. My love for all animals drives me to provide the best care for every pet I meet! Caring for your beloved pets brings me joy and I would love to have the opportunity to help. Right now my work schedule is flexible, so feel free to reach out to see if I'm available. I'll follow whatever routines you usually do at home to try and make your fur babies feel at ease. However you typically care for them is how I will try my best to go about it.

“Colleen is excellent. She took great care of my puppy. She noticed a sore/ hotspot and arranged for us to get in to see her vet the same day and even volunteered to take him if my schedule didn’t allow.”

About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm. A half hour lunch long lunch where I can leave to care for your furries in the middle of the day depending on the distance. Dogs will be crated when I’m not home. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me! I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!

“Alivia is great with our dog! The dog is sometimes stubborn about going on walks, but loves hanging out with Alivia! And Alivia is very communicative and professional.”

From senior to young kittens/puppies, dogs, cats, birds, and even snakes, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide variety of animals, always prioritizing their mental and physical wellbeing. My journey into animal behavior began in college, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I wasn’t able to complete my degree. However, I plan to return and finish my studies. In the meantime, I’ve continued to expand my expertise through hands-on work in multiple boarding facilities and with the SPCA. I’m also certified in pet first aid and CPR, attending annual recertifications to ensure I’m always prepared to keep your pets safe. Whether your pet needs training, grooming, or personalized care, I’m here to help. I also have extensive experience administering medications and tailoring my approach to fit each pet’s unique needs.

I look forward to providing the care and attention your pet deserves! My current schedule allows for all-day play with your pup or kitty! Nothing would please me more!! However, this can change. I do own my own dog training business therefore when I get busy with appointments I will have to update my schedule, luckily most my clients are on vacation currently. If interested in my training or grooming services let me know and I'll give you a quote. I am very very observant of my surroundings.

About: A long time dog owner myself I am looking to walk and care for dogs as a side job. I love bonding and having fun with animals. I like to be very attentive to their needs, wellbeing, and happiness. I have completed 3 years of an animals science BS degree before I could no longer continue due to medical issues, but plan to return soon!
