Dog Walking Oakwood

About: Hi, I’m T! I have taken care of different ages of dogs and breeds as well. I have experience in walking dogs that pull and being able to redirect them to something else. I love walks, your dog loves walks.. so Me+ Your Dog = Happy Walks. I’m a morning person so I’m up and early, ready to start. I am a college student so I’ll be free from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday- after 12pm afternoon Thursday- after 4pm afternoon Friday, Saturday & Sunday- after 12pm afternoon ^ my schedule is extremely flexible so don’t be afraid to just send me a message. I most likely will make it despite the schedule time listed. My home is fenced in all around with lock pads to prevent trespassers. I believe in upholding safety to the highest. I also have two seperate floors and a fenced backyard.

“Great!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My family and I have raised over 20 dogs. There is no pet or child in my current house so we are open to overnight stay. I am currently working for myself as a stuffed-animal plush seller. So I have plenty of time playing with your pup and we’ll have a great time together! I have a fenced yard and dogs can have a great time playing there. The community near my home is quiet, safe and pet-friendly. We will have a great time together.

“Michelle was very kind and understanding about my chaotic pickup and dropoff situation and dealing with my injured dog. She even brought him water because he was panting a lot in the heat. She’s the best- great communicator and so kind. Thank you! ❤️‍🩹”

About: I was 13 when I got my first Pomeranian puppy. Having a Pomeranian helped teach me patience, calming down an anxious puppy, and understanding boundaries. I also have experience with more hyper breeds such as border collies. When I was 17 my brother bought home a border collie and I helped raise him a lot. I also had many lizards and hamsters. I love bonding with different animals and getting to know their unique personalities. Currently working part time. So I have plenty of time to myself. I am looking for something that makes me feel more connected with myself so I am giving rover a try :) I care for my pets by simply being gentle and trying to understand them. For example- my dog hates the broom when I am sweeping. Instead of yelling at her I put down the broom, picked her up and told her it’s okay. I set her down on my bed, gave her a biscuit, and picked up the broom. As I did this I spoke in a soft voice and told her she’s being good and that it’s okay.

“gabby is so sweet and caring! She treated my dog as her own❤️”

“Jessica is amazing! She came through when I was too sick to walk my sweet girl during the holidays and made everything so easy. I would highly recommend Jessica if you’re looking for a consistent or last minute walker!”

About: Don’t tell anyone, but I might prefer dogs/cats over people! My day is always brightened when I get to take care of and spend quality time with a furry companion. I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have family who have cats that I’ve cared for. I’m taking a break from corporate life to focus on doing what I enjoy. What’s more enjoyable than caring for and playing with pets? My availability is almost entirely open. I always treat every pet with the utmost respect and see to their needs as best I can. I currently have a very friendly five year old Pointer mix, who would love to hang out with your pup! We live across from a public park with trails and access to the beach as well!

“Mike is great ! My kylo loves him. Great communication and always on time. My family really appreciates your help! Thank you :) Kylo loves his walks with you !”

“Mina (Nermina) is very sweet with my dogs. They absolutely look forward to their walks with her. My dogs are both pullers and squirrel crazed but she handles them very well! She is accepting of suggestions like left side walking, a sit at street crossings and walking paths. I am so much stricter on my walks with my dogs- she allows them more freedom to sniff and look. I recommend Mina for your dogs!”

“Jenna was great with Pita!! Would definitely recommend :)”

About: As a lifelong pet owner, I see and treat all pets as family members! 🐾💞 I will treat your animals with the love, care and respect they deserve. Currently, I am a proud mom of a chatty black cat named Binx 🐈‍⬛ and a very funny (and very opinionated) 2 year old husky named Aries who loves to sing 📣🐺 Both are very social, friendly, kind and well behaved. Both get along with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Both are fixed, vaccinated and healthy. I have walk several dogs in my old building complex - most are friends with my dog who is a very happy husky mix. I am the friend / neighbor everyone calls when they need help with their pets! I’m trained in walking dogs on standard leashes, slip leads, harnesses, choke collar (although, not personally preferred), retractable leashes, “no pull” harnesses, muzzles, etc. Previously, I volunteered at an animal shelter for years where I was properly trained on walking different degrees of behaviorally ranked dogs. Each level requires a 10 hour orientation so as to make sure both the dog and I were safe. I still apply many of those useful techniques today. I’ve owned, worked with and volunteered with dog breeds of all sizes and all kinds of personalities for many years and across NYC. I also adore cats, fish and reptiles as well. 🐠🐢🦎 I can help with walking, feeding / administering medication or vitamins, socialization, basic training (leash training, off-leash training, crate training, positive reinforcement, sit, stay, down, paw (and “other paw”), behavioral fixes like pulling on leash, etc), daycare for short or longer stays, drop-ins and whatever else you need! We can also work out trips to the dog park, groomer, vet, etc. Importantly, I am looking into becoming a certified dog trainer in the coming year 🐕‍🦺 My own dog gets 4-5 walks a day with a substantial exercise session as one of them! Clients have the opportunity to set their own schedules with me. I am available early, late, weekends and holidays! Working with animals is my full time occupation at the moment. However, when I am working in my other profession (legal & tech), I work solely from home. So, I am always local. I live in an apartment in a very secure, dog-friendly building with a fenced yard outside. These are cameras everywhere. If I am boarding a dog, no matter the duration, I will make myself available to FaceTime at any time so that parents are reassured and at ease. I am within minutes of an animal hospital should anything arise. I have all the supplies needed to host and house a dog or a cat including, but not limited to: • Crates, if needed or preferred • Leashes and collars • Beds • Food in surplus • Feeding bowls • Toys • Interactive toys & games • Treats • Calming music • Rental Insurance

About: Growing up, I have always looked after dogs of close friends and family, and have studied nutrition and health, which led me to work at a pet hotel for about a year with almost every dog breed. My responsibilities included prepping food, cleaning, 1 on 1 play, and group play. I have been in charge of up to 20 dogs at 1 time. I also co-own a dog named Luna. The other owner and I had Luna since she was a puppy and she is now 5 years old. I teach obedience/behavior training to many dogs and I develop trust with dogs that is unique to my experience with various breeds. It takes patience and consistency to be a great leader for dogs and I wear my heart on my sleeve for every dog I'm caring for; communication with your dog is key. I currently work with dogs full time and make Dog care apart of my every day routine, if I'm not with my dog I'm working with other dogs. I have a good size open backyard and toys depending on the play style of your dog; crate training is much appreciated if they are familiar. Walks are frequent, especially for high energy dogs

About: I have done pet sitting and boarding over the years. I have also cared for dogs growing up; All different sizes. It varies from Bijon Fraise to Pitbulls! I love them all. I live in a spacious house with a fenced back yard. I would I am also available overnights for boarding your furry friends. Thank you for reading my profile. Hopefully I am a good fit and help you with any type of services you need. I work from home most days, and the home is never empty. Your pup will never be alone on the occasion that I have to work in person. I am an outdoorsy person, so if needed, lots of exercise would be given. Every pet is different, so the way that I would care for them is dependent on your furry friend's personality.

About: I’ve volunteered working with dogs in the past and have fostered two cats. I also have worked as a dog groomer for the past few years. I’m currently living in the side apartment of my brothers house and take care of their lab retriever most days!
