Dog Walking in Oakwood, Kalamazoo, MI

“I had a great experience with Jaime! She was quick to respond and worked with me to find a time that suited both our schedules. She arrived on time, was incredibly sweet with my dog, and really took the time to connect with her. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure all of her needs were met. I would definitely recommend her and will continue to use her services moving forward!”

About: I’ve had several years of experience with pets of all different kinds. I used to work for a professional pet sitting company, a dog day care, and currently work at a vet clinic. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, shy dogs, and hyperarousal behavior. I am currently working full time at a local veterinary clinic, and I am pet sitting part time on my days off! I am available on Friday's, some Tuesday's, and some weekends. I do not offer services in my own home as I have two dogs of my own, however I do drop in visits/walks at your home!

“Lynn was fantastic. She put our dogs at ease right away during the meet and greet. She had great communication. We will definitely be using her a lot more for our pups!”

Laura A.

“Jess was great! Always communicated with me and gave good notes so I was aware of everything that happened during the visit. I knew my baby was in good hands. I would recommend to anyone and love to book her again!”

Linnea D.

“I am so thankful for Wesley! I injured my knee and haven’t been able to walk my dog. I could tell she was getting depressed. Then I found Wesley and he is really nice and so good with my dog. Now when Wesley comes to take her for a walk she is so happy and excited!! I am happy for her :) Thank you Wesley!!”

“Maggie is the best!! Our dogs were staying with my elderly parents while we were out of town and needed to be walked everyday. Maggie came to our rescue and walked them daily and gave them VIP treatment! Maggie is a dependable, professional loving care giver and we would definitely call her again to care for our dogs!!”

About: I grew up with pets and currently have my own 4 fur babies at home! I own my home with a fenced in yard! I can watch your dog in my home if you prefer but do not mind staying over if that is what you would like! I offer walking services as well if that is what your fur baby needs during the day. I do allow my pets on the furniture and bed but can keep yours off if you would prefer! Being crate trained is not necessary and I can help with potty training for any puppies that will be in my care. I do have a full time 9-5 job but I can easily leave at lunch for any potty breaks your fur babies will need! I do work full time 9-5 every day but I can leave for lunch to let your fur baby outside or give meds if needed! I have a fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in! I stay outside with them while they do business to ensure safety. Playtime is a necessity so we will have multiple times a day to play outside with a tennis ball or go for walks

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, so being around animals feels second nature to me. I currently have a rescue dog who’s a golden retriever–husky mix (with some shepherd and lab in there too!), so I understand the unique needs that can come with mixed breeds and rescue pets. I’m a trusted, responsible adult who truly loves animals and treats every pet like family. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping their routine steady, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree online, which means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day to care for your pets. Since I set my own hours, I can easily work around your pet’s needs—whether that’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. You can count on me to show up on time, give your pet lots of attention, and keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I don’t offer pet care in my own home, but I’m more than happy to come to you for drop-in visits or walks. When I’m in your home, I treat it—and your pets—with the same care and respect I would my own. I make sure doors are secure, routines are followed, and your pet feels safe and comfortable. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer visit, I aim to make your pet feel relaxed and cared for while keeping you updated along the way.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, for family and friends who are pet parents, I am their first choice when it comes to pet sitting. I have also volunteered at my local animal shelters and to me, the animal's well-being is my highest priority. I have a job with flexible work hours so I can always make time to take care of your best friend. I also work remotely so I can be with your pet for however long is needed. If I am at the client's house, I will follow any and all special instructions involving taking care of their pet. I will make sure the dog is fed, gets plenty of exercise, clean up any messes, and just make sure that they feel safe and cared for.

About: I’ve always been surrounded by animals—from my grandma in Tennessee who cared for a wolf and multiple cats, to my cousin who has had countless dogs, cats, rabbits, and more. Growing up in such a loving, animal-filled environment shaped my passion and deep understanding of pets. Since I was 5, I’ve cared for various pets—hermit crabs, a black-and-white cat named Sammy when I was 6, a Black Labrador at 8, a parrot at 10, and more dogs through my teenage years. At 18, I took care of my uncle’s dog as well. I’ve also read hundreds of books about dogs, cats, and parrots to better understand their behavior and needs. My favorite animals are dogs, parrots, and ferrets, and I bring genuine love, patience, and knowledge to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Since I’m home every day and my classes are online, I have a flexible schedule and am available 24/7 to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, playing, walking, or just keeping them company, I’m always here to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away. Whether at my place or a client's home, pet care involves ensuring their well-being. This includes feeding them on schedule, providing fresh water, administering medications (if needed), cleaning litter boxes or taking them for potty breaks, playtime and walks for exercise, and plenty of love and attention to keep them happy and healthy. For overnight stays, I also provide comfortable sleeping arrangements and monitor them throughout the night.

About: I (and my partner, Nico) love taking furry 4-legged buddies on long, winding daily walks (multiple times a day, if needed), giving them all the fluffing and snuggles they would want, and whatever misadventures to get into. We are godparents here in KZOO to 3 pups; all who live nearby (1 <6 months and 2 older pups, 1blind). If your doggo likes to make friends, they'll also have 3 dogs around them (all in the immediate houses nearby) to say HI and FROLICK! We have a fenced-in yard with almost 0.5 acre adventuring space in Oakland-Winchell! In previous times, I've always had roommates (in different living situations) with small- to medium- to big- dogs (younger and middle-aged) and have cared for, walked, and taken them around. Can also provide pick-up and drop-off, too, to the dog park, on nice hikes, and most anything in-between. Additionally, if you need someone to come by to feed your furry friend & take them out, I can do that and stay longer to hang out with them, too, if your doggie friend loves attention! We shall shower it on them! YUSS! If I am watching your pup, it means that I am home from my 80% work travel schedule and that I am working from home. It also means that I can dedicate time to your pup as is needed for your pup! We have a fenced-in backyard of grass and fun. Within the house, we leave the windows and back door screen open (or closed) depending on the run-bility of your pup! If your pup is a chill pup and likes to sit with us while we work, we love that too!

About: Hi my name is Abi, I am a recent college grad of Western Michigan’s College of Aviation! While I am a pilot, I am in a waiting period to move. I have a Silver Lab puppy named Stetson, who is the sweetest and most excited little man! I have grown up with all kinds of animals! I can take care of your furry friend most days! I am home most days and enjoy walks along our trails near our apartment or near your home! I do not have a yard, however there are 7 miles of walking trails around me, lots of open space to throw the ball, and my apartment is puppy friendly! I do have a silver lab puppy who is 9 months, but he loves everything and everyone and we have never had an issue with another pup!

“Meg had a good walk with Abby L. Meg was so chill when she got home. Thanks Abby L.”
