Dog Walking Northgate

About: I’ve cared for pups for friends, family, and neighbors, and have also had the joy of fostering dogs. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and giving them plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I will send all of my clients high-quality (and cute!) daily photo/video updates 🎞️ My schedule is pretty flexible! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting throughout the week, and most weekends as well. I’m in class Wednesday evenings from 6–9pm and one weekend a month, but otherwise I have plenty of availability to spend time with your pup. I live in a dog-friendly apartment with my 6-year-old Frenchie, who gets along great with other dogs. In order to ensure the comfort and safety of all parties, I have a strict policy of only boarding ONE dog at a time. Your pup will get lots of individual attention while also getting plenty of doggy playtime with my super-friendly pup.

“Thank you so much Jennifer! 5 stars! I am an anxious dog mom to a very anxious doodle, and it’s very hard for me to find people that I feel comfortable leaving my little fur baby with. But from the moment I started communicating with Jennifer through Rover, my anxieties were eased! Jennifer is kind, warm, and a very clear communicator! She was very gracious and non-judgmental too as I over explained and neurotically walked through Ruffles’ preferences and routines! I felt so at ease at work knowing she was taking care of my baby and didn’t even think twice! And her updates and pictures were always great and informative. It’s funny too how you just know when your dog likes someone, and I could tell he really felt comfortable with her! Can’t wait to book again for dog walking.”

“Winston and I love Tami! I always get the best updates and pictures of my dog, and she really cares for his well-being! This is probably the 4th time Tami has walked Winston and I will continue to rely on her. She is simply the best”

“Sophie has been amazing with my girl Rosie as she adjusts to city life. She has made a huge impact on keeping her calm and helping keep her active by giving her good exercise and working with to stay calm and focused while encountering squirrels, other dogs and loud noises on their walks. I have noticed such a change due to Sophie's interventions. Sophie is prompt, communicative and kind. A one of a kind! Rosie adores her!”

“Cristina was great! My dog can be a bit much on walks, since she is a high energy dog and can be reactive at times, but she seemed to manage her just fine! It was so convenient that she lived in my area. I would definitely recommend anyone, Loba took to her very quickly!”

Daniela H.

“Shirley is wonderful. She took great care of my dog Java on short notice this morning. Java has been in training for leash reactivity and Shirley picked up exactly how to work with her very quickly. She is kind and really appreciate animals from what I can tell. Highly recommended”

“Christine came to the rescue on short notice to walk our foster dog while we were on vacation. She was patient, understanding and offered great care. Love the rover.com app and the report card feature! Christine clearly followed the protocol, gave informative daily feedback and put our concerns about leaving new foster pet at ease. Thanks Christine!”

“Gary walked my dog Coco while I recovered from an injury and was a total lifesaver. Always punctual, endlessly patient, and genuinely great with dogs. Coco adored him. Gary is reliable, kind, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.”

About: Your dog gets more than a walk with me. They get personalized care, attention, and a walker you can trust. I've grown up with dogs my whole life and have watched dogs for others for a very long time as well. My daily routine is very active, and pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I spend a lot of my time walkiing, running, and working out so I'm use to staying outdoors and staying on the move. I have a flexible schedule and plenty availability for walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout my day. I have a fenced yard and a crate if needed but going on a walks, runs, to a park or staying at a clients house is preferred.

“Jyne came to my rescue when I needed a very last minute dog walker due to an injury. She was an absolute life saver and my dog absolutely adored her. Honey practically bounced off the walls whenever she came over to walk her. 10000/10 would definitely book her again! Thanks so much Jyne!!!”

About: As a passionate and dedicated dog caregiver (and certified belly-rub expert), I have decades of experience in providing loving, personalized care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s epic walks, goofy play sessions, or cozy couch cuddles, I treat each dog like my own, making sure their day is just as awesome as they are. With a deep understanding of dog behavior and needs, I offer more than just pet sitting—I’m all about tail wags, happy barks, and ensuring every pup feels like the superstar they are. Your fur-baby is in good hands, whether we’re tackling zoomies or sharing some well-deserved ear scratches! As a digital artist who works from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible and perfect for spending quality time with your furry friend! I start each day with a cup of coffee and a quick sketch, but my favorite part of the day is when I get to step away from the screen for some one-on-one time with the pups I care for. Whether it’s a mid-morning walk through the neighborhood or a cozy play session in the afternoon, I make sure each dog I care for gets plenty of love and attention. Throughout the week, I break up my art projects with regular walks, potty breaks, and cuddles, making sure your dog’s routine blends seamlessly with mine. My evenings are often spent winding down with some light painting, with a furry companion by my side, of course. This balance between my creative work and dog care means your pet will have constant companionship, attention, and plenty of outdoor time—whether it’s during a quick break or an afternoon adventure. My weekends are all about longer walks and outdoor fun. Whether we’re chasing a ball in the park or enjoying some quiet relaxation time, your dog will get the undivided, personalized attention they deserve, all while fitting right into my routine as a work-from-home artist. When it comes to caring for your furry family members, safety and trust are my top priorities. Whether I’m welcoming your dog into my home for boarding or visiting your home for sitting or drop-ins, I strive to create a comfortable, loving environment where your pet feels completely at ease. If your dog stays with me, they’ll be part of the family! My home is pet-friendly, with cozy spots for relaxation, plenty of space for play, and lots of one-on-one attention. I make sure the environment is safe and secure, with constant supervision to ensure your pet is always happy, healthy, and well-cared-for. From daily walks to cuddle time, your dog’s routine will be catered to their needs, whether they prefer lounging or an active play session. I maintain a calm, structured atmosphere, and your dog will have plenty of outdoor time and regular exercise, including half-hour to hour-long walks, or even longer adventures, depending on their energy level. When I come to your home for sitting or drop-in visits, I treat your space and your pet with the utmost respect. I maintain your dog’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding times to playtime and walks. I know how important it is for your pet to feel safe in their familiar environment, and I make sure they receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I offer drop-in visits and regular walks, from quick 30-minute strolls to as many hours as your dog needs to stay happy and content. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I’m dedicated to building a relationship of trust with both you and your pet. You can always count on me to provide a nurturing, reliable, and safe environment that puts your dog’s well-being first.

“Thanks!”

About: Leaving your pet with someone new takes trust. My goal is to help you feel informed and reassured while giving your pet patient, attentive care that respects their personality, routine, and boundaries. My hands-on experience includes two and a half years caring for my rescued Chihuahua mix and two cats. I also volunteered socializing cats at a shelter when I was younger and, more recently, volunteered regularly at a farm animal sanctuary from April through October. There, I helped with feeding, fresh water, cleaning, preparing barns, and evening routines. I’m especially comfortable with cats and understand that building trust often means offering quiet company, respecting their space, and letting them choose when to interact. Caring for my own sensitive, reactive small dog has also taught me to watch body language closely, stay aware of my surroundings, and create distance from situations that make him uncomfortable. I treat every pet as an individual. Whether they enjoy sniff-filled walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I take time to learn what helps them feel comfortable. I let them set the pace for affection and interaction rather than forcing a connection. I’ve been vegan for seven years as part of my personal commitment to animal welfare. That commitment includes respecting each pet’s dietary needs—I’m comfortable handling meat-based food and following their established feeding routine. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful updates, and photos while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets and learn what helps them feel safe, understood, and cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and house sits around your pet’s routine. For new clients, I prefer at least three days’ notice so we have time to arrange a meet-and-greet and make sure we’re a good fit before confirming a booking. During house sits, I stay overnight but may leave during the day for other pet-care bookings, errands, and personal commitments. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s usual schedule, potty-break needs, and how long they can comfortably be left alone, so you know what to expect. I take a careful, detail-oriented approach to caring for both your pets and your home. At our meet-and-greet, I’ll ask about feeding instructions, walking routines, behavior, triggers, household rules, and emergency contacts. I welcome detailed care notes and will follow the plan we agree on. On walks, I’ll stay aware of our surroundings, keep your dog leashed, and avoid unfamiliar dogs or greetings unless we’ve specifically discussed them. I pay attention to body language and give pets space when they show discomfort rather than pushing them into an interaction. In your home, I’ll be mindful of doors, gates, and escape risks, keep feeding and litter areas tidy, and respect your instructions about access to rooms and outdoor spaces. For cats, I’ll offer attention without forcing handling or disturbing them when they need space. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes about how your pet is doing and communicate promptly if I notice a change in their behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits. My aim is to maintain the familiar care they’re used to while giving them patience and support during your time away.
