Dog Walking Otisco Valley

About: I have a dog and 2 cats of my own so I consider myself experienced in pet care. I have dog sat for many years now for both neighbors and family. Since I have owned many cats over the years I also consider myself experienced in cat care. I don’t mind cleaning up after pets and I can give medicine to unwilling pets. I don’t currently have a job so I my schedule is very flexible. I also don’t mind getting up early if necessary for your pet. I have a fenced backyard and my pets are friendly. I can easily crate your pet if that’s what they’re used to. I can also come to your house to take them out and give them plenty of love.

About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.

“Adriana was an incredible help with our nervous dog who can be a bit ~weird~ with strangers; she had our boy snuggling on the couch with her in just one weekend. She gives great updates and calmed every worry we had this weekend.”

About: I have pet sat for neighbors and family friends for years and for long periods of time. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I also have experience working with reptiles and snakes as an intern for an environment education center. I took care of a box turtle, corn snake, and painted turtle. I am in college full time but am willing to watch or stop by when I am not currently taking a class. I am a junior at SUNY ESF. And have a relatively light schedule that would allow me to dedicate hours to your pet if needed. As I live in an apartment I do not have any pets nor can I board pets. However, I have my own car so I can travel to take care of pets. If you wish to have overnight care I can stay on a couch or blow up mattress by your pet for safe company.

“John is an excellent dog walker and care taker! Having someone come by my place that I trust is a huge relief. Even in warmer weather Benny still got outside and got great exercise. Thanks so much John!”

“We couldn’t be more grateful to Jocelyn for taking such great care of Wakely while we were out hiking! She went above and beyond by coming directly to our RV campsite, which made everything so much easier for us. Her communication was fantastic—prompt, clear, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. We especially appreciated the Rover card she shared after her visit with Wakely—it was detailed and reassuring, and it was clear she treated him with so much care. Highly recommend Jocelyn to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter!”

About: With over 10 years of experience, I am comfortable with all kinds of animals and temperaments - big dogs, angry kitties, stubborn puppies, and anxious pets. I can also give meds if needed and make sure your pet stays safe, calm, and cared for like they’re my own. No matter their personality, I’ve got them covered 😊 I am currently in school but it is strictly online, so I am available almost all days and times. I work Thursday-Saturday from 4-10 but I am available any other time! I can’t block out those times specifically sadly so just message me if you have any questions regarding my availability! I have my own car, I’m also a night owl so don’t feel bad asking for a night check on your pups during date night!! I have 1 cat and 1 dog of my own at home who are the most spoiled babies ever! Most importantly, I am a firm believer in all things safety. I worked with horses for over 10 years so I know how important it is to follow the instructions I have been given. I may be small, but I am mighty! I can handle big dogs, mean cats, and fresh horses! I am more than happy to change any of my procedures to accommodate your fur baby, just ask!

“Amber does a great job with my anxious and shy dog!”

“Kristen has been a huge help with my 9 month old golden retriever. She has been flexible with her schedule and great with communication. She is very friendly and Winnie enjoyed greeting her at the door for a daily walk. Highly recommend.”

About: I've always been a dog owner since I was a young girl. I would watch/ walk my neighbors and family's dogs whenever they needed me to. I am thorough and patient especially when it comes to our furry friends. I currently work from home, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a community with lots of sidewalks and have a small front and backyard. Your dog will get plenty of love, attention, and playtime while in my care.

About: For many years, I aided my aunt who owns her own dog grooming salon, keeping the dogs occupied and bathing them! I have also taken care of many friends and family members dogs, even cats! I had two dogs, two Guinea pigs, and recently just adopted a cat! I volunteer weekly at a bunny farm cleaning their cages and spending time with them. I enjoy all animals and being a difference in their lives! I currently have a full time job, typically work week hours, with some overtime so I will need to work around that! Available weekends and late night!! I have a park nearby and am familiar with safe areas for dog walking! I think it is important to listen to the client and will do everything I can to ensure your pets safety and help you feel at ease knowing they are in good hands! Every client is different and I respect each and every boundary.

About: What distinguishes me from other dog sitters is my lifelong companionship with dogs, instilling in me an innate understanding of their needs and behaviors. Beyond my extensive experience as a dog owner, I possess specialized skills that cater to a wide range of canine requirements. Whether it's training energetic puppies, ensuring the comfort and well-being of senior dogs, or simply providing a safe and loving environment, I am well-equipped to handle diverse situations. Your furry companions will not only receive responsible care but also benefit from my adeptness at creating tailored routines that accommodate their unique personalities and preferences. With me, you can rest assured that your beloved dogs will be treated with the utmost respect, attention, and devotion. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine, even with a full-time job. Despite my professional commitments, I am devoted to providing exceptional care to dogs. During weekdays, I prioritize early morning walks and playtime before work, ensuring they start the day with positive energy. I've strategically structured my evenings around quality time with the dogs, focusing on exercise and interaction. On weekends, I offer extended care and undivided attention, making it the perfect opportunity for boarding and a truly immersive experience. My commitment to their well-being and my ability to provide attentive care during the weekends guarantees that your dogs will receive the utmost attention. When caring for pets, whether in my home or at the client's residence, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. If providing care in my own home, I ensure a cozy and pet-friendly environment. I'm fortunate to have access to a nearby dog park within my apartment complex, where dogs can socialize, play fetch, and enjoy outdoor activities. Additionally, I'm conveniently located near various walking and hiking trails, which offer stimulating adventures for energetic dogs to explore nature. For those preferring a more relaxed setting, there's a spacious greenspace near my apartment, ideal for leisurely strolls and lounging in the sun. Regardless of the service, whether it's boarding, walking, or drop-in visits, my goal is to create a tailored experience that aligns with each pet's individual needs and preferences, making their time with me both enjoyable and fulfilling.

“Isaiah was able to come at the last minute to help when our sitter had to take care of a personal matter. Our boys are a handful and they seemed to acclimate to him amazing! Highly recommend!”

About: I have always grown up around different types of dogs and cats with different requirements and I work full time in a veterinary hospital, so if they have and medications or medical needs I can assist Im currently working full time at a vet hospital but I have some time off due to summer and I love working with such cute animals I have a fenced in yard where they can run around and stretch there legs and relax at the end of the day with my two cuddling felines

About: I have 5 years of pet care experience and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I have cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing, giving fresh water, cleaning up after them, and keeping them comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, gentle, and responsible, and I always try to follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take time to make pets feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I am usually home and able to give pets regular attention throughout the day. I can help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. I have a fenced-in house with 4 bedrooms, so I can safely keep pets separated when needed. This is helpful for pets who need quiet space, slow introductions, or extra comfort. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I keep the home clean, safe, and calm, and I make sure pets are supervised and comfortable during their stay.

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for roughly the last 5 years. I love how sweet and cuddly animals are and I hope you will trust me to watch yours! I currently work full time, so I am available during weekends and after 5pm! I still have plenty of time to play with your animals💗 Though I do not have any animals of my own, whenever I watch someone else’s, I treat them like I would if they were mine 💗 I keep an active eye on them and make sure they aren’t supposed to get into anything they shouldn’t be in.

About: Walks every 2-3 hours playtime feedings and bathing if necessary can help with training puppies like potty training or just commands if needed.. will provide the supplies for potty training Pet care fits in well, I don't work and the only time I won't be able to accept a request is if I have a appointment I don't have pets anymore but I used to feed them take on good walks and have play time I live in a gated community so leash will be required unless the owner says it's good with commands

About: I’ve taken care of family friend’s pets weeks at a time for a few years now, and I currently work in animal care and I have for over 3 years. I am currently in grad school getting my phd degree. With that being said, I have a bunch of random availability to care for your pet! I always get outside some how, so walking a dog is perfect! But don’t get me wrong, I love cats as well and could spend all day inside playing and petting a cat! I have had many different breeds of dogs throughout my life and I currently own a cat. I can crate, use gates to restrict the pet to certain rooms. I am very active so playing and going on walks is my favorite part of pet sitting!

About: Ive been around dogs my whole life. I worked at dog daycares, was a kennel tech at Petland and have years of animal sitting experience including dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens etc. I had a husky mix most recently for 8 years before she passed. ***dog must be okay with children*** I currently work evenings and am available most mornings/ days/ and late evening. Although I do not have a fully fenced in backyard, we do have a backyard, tons of parks around us, hiking trails and enclosed baseball fields. I allow doggos on my furniture and bed. I work evenings and typically 4-5 hour shifts. I usually take the dogs for a long walk or to the park prior to me going to work to make sure they’re tired/sleeping rather than bored while I’m away. I can also accommodate crating if needed. There’s a fenced in ball park down the street with plenty of side walks for walks. I allow animals on furniture and have plenty of blankets to keep them cozy.
