Dog Walking Old Northwest-West University

About: My family and I have owned pets since I can remember. I am currently 33 with 3 pets of my own, but have grown up with pets in the home my whole childhood. My family always had dogs and cats in our home, and additionally I owned a bearded dragon, fish, and a tortoise that I helped care for daily. Once I moved to college in 2014, I got my first pet of my own. Her name is Stella and she has been with me for the last 12 years. She has lived with me in Oregon, Texas, and now Reno. Additionally, my wife and I have a silly orange cat named Nemo, and a fun/energetic Frenchie named Comet. While living in Texas we adopted another cat with FeLV who also developed diabetes. I have experience giving insulin injections and taking blood glucose readings. I have met and cared for many of my friend’s pets of all ages and sizes and can responsibly provide all daily care for your furry babies as needed. This includes but is not limited to feeding, walking, playing, transporting, giving oral meds, and subcutaneous injections. I currently work as a teacher and have extended breaks during the fall, winter, and summer. During the school year I will have availability during afternoons and evenings for some care activities, and weekends for more. During breaks, if not traveling, and I will have a lot more flexibility daily. Update 06/08: I am currently on summer break from teaching. My weekday availability has been updated with more available times/ services. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my 2 dogs and an indoor cat. The pets have access to the entire unit including furniture during the day and when sleeping. Our spare bedroom can be used for your pet if they are more anxious and want separation from the other animals. My dogs are crated when no one is home to supervise, and the cat has full access to the unit at all times. My pets are all friendly towards other dogs and cats. In the past when sitting for animals, I have them fall into the same routines as my animals for walking, feeding, pottying, and crating, unless specified different by the owner. When doing drop ins and house sitting, I follow all instructions left by the owner.

“Catherine came on short notice and it was so appreciated! She let my Lola out to potty and took her for a walk. We are very appreciative of her!”

“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.”

“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. 😊”

Katie M.

“Kathryn has been reliable and trustworthy with walking my 2 doggies. I really have piece of mind knowing the dogs are going to get great care and a great walk while I'm at work!”

“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!”

Mayra H.

“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”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was little!! I had dogs growing up, and have lived with cats since college. I dogsit across my work, and I want to take the opportunity I have with my current work schedule to help owners across the community. I'm good with senior care, as well as deaf and blind dogs, and I work great with puppies and training! I work a part time flexible job, so I have plenty of time to come see your pets, whether mornings, afternoons, or weekends! I'm even available on the fly most of the time! I love to hang out with animals and devote my full attention to them! Whether it be a walk, playing, or just a cuddle on the couch, I love bonding with the animal I'm working with and making them as happy as I can. I'm detail oriented, and will make sure to follow all important rules to a T.

About: I have raised dogs from puppies into old age, and also taken care of other people's pets - overnight and for the day. I have a deep love for animals, and enjoy showing them warmth and a playful spirit. I work full-time, remotely - and my schedule can be very flexible. I am always able to make time for outdoor adventures, and can align easily with other routines. I do not currently have any pets in my home. Indoors, I have a large open area, as well as a large yard with grass - and I am near many parks and trails for outdoor time.

About: Hello, I'm Devin! I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets, having lived with 5 dogs and 3 cats as well as other animals throughout my life. This has given me a strong understanding of their different needs, behaviors, and personalities. I've also lived with a puppy and understand how hard at times it can be to deal with them, but I also understand how fun and worth it, it is. I've also volunteered at SPCA for a summer camp where I learned how to take care of dogs and cats and be around more animals! Although pets are very important to me I must prioritize my classes, which end at the latest 2:30 pm, but after I can push aside anything else to make any cat or dog happy. I love to make a dog or cat feel happy and comfortable. I will happily play with any pet and go for walks until that dog or cat is tired, or I can just chill on the couch and relax because I know every animal, just like a human, needs some chill time too.

“Bob is amazing, and always very thoughtful. He takes great care of my fur-baby while also updated me whenever he can.”

Emma S.

“Sydney is very flexible and easy going! My dog warmed up to her easily and she provided me with a photo update from their walk. I would definitely book with Sydney again.”

“We absolutely LOVE having Cyndi and Karsynn take care of our dogs! Both of our dogs liked them from day 1:) Cyndi and Karsynn are so kind, trustworthy and all around AWESOME. They always leave us pictures and detailed reports of their visits. One of our dogs is 14years old with multiple chronic health issues, and Cyndi and Karsynn are great at meeting all of her needs as well. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for anyone to take care of your fur babies.”

“We are so happy to have met Neesa, she’s always available and promptly helps us with our pets, long walks, follows all directions and goes above and beyond by bringing boxes and trash bins in.”

“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!”

About: I have been watching dogs on and off for many years, and I love the experiences I get with each dog I watch, whether it be waking up to their whiskers on my face, playing with them, or even just being around them. I have watched dogs ranging from big to small. I have also watched and walked a black lab and a pit bull at the same time, so multiple dogs are no problem. I have also given lots of baths to the smaller dogs, but I look forward to the experience of bathing larger dogs if asked. I hope to add your playful pooch to my experiences. I work at a doggy daycare as a dog handler/groomer Wednesday-Sunday mornings until 3, so I would not be available then, but after I would be.
