Dog Walking in Palestine

“Jonathan is amazing with my Sherman Shepherd Tala. Super friendly, on time and clearly loves animals. He sends pictures everyday of Tala on her walk. It’s such a relief knowing she’s getting good exercise and attention while I’m at work. Totally would recommend to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog walker.”

About: I have several years of experience pet sitting as well as working as a veterinary technician for three years in the Houston area. I have grown up around animals all my life and dogs are absolutely my favorite animals! I have two of my own, one of which I've had since 2010 when he was a little puppy around 10 weeks old. I nursed him back to health when he had parvovirus! My other is a smaller rescue dog I adopted in 2017 who originally tested positive for heartworm disease but now he has been heatworm free for about two years! I am currently still working a full time Monday through Friday job but am transitioning to being available full-time for pet care. I anticipate full availability by July 2025. I do have weekends free and evenings, although I try to do delivery services when I can for extra income as well, but that is on demand timing and not a set schedule. I will play with your pups, cuddle, take them on walks, and even to the dog park with your approval! I have a smaller dog of my own who loves to play with other dogs!

About: Has fostered over 200 dogs and owned over 5 dogs at one time, ranging from puppy to elderly. Has helped care for over 20 dogs at one time, and has experience with taking care of dogs with complex needs. Currently doing pet care and house sitting full-time, so my schedule is open for clients to fill. Available during the day and evening, as well as open to multi-day sitting. For my pets, I have one acre of fenced in yard, a doggy door, homemade food, and puppy care area in the front yard. For clients, I am willing and able to give medication as needed, meet their standards of food and cleanliness for their pets, and can let their pets out as needed.

About: I have had many pets in and out of my home. Mostly fosters but a few have stayed! I have 3 cats and 2 kids. All pets are welcome! I am a stay at home mom, available anytime! I love all animals and would love to help with yours! I have dealt with puppies, young dogs, and elderly dogs. Same with cats, I have handled all ages. All are welcome! I do not have a fenced in yard but we have about an acre of land. My home is small but we do have room to run and play! Kennels are preferred but not required. All animals are welcome!

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was about 12. I have always loved animals and being able to take care of them and play with them. I am currently without a job and would love to make pet sitting a full time job if possible. With that being said I will have plenty of time to play with your dog or cat, take it out to use the bathroom, and etc… I have one fur baby of my own. I understand the need to make sure your fur baby will be okay. If you trust me with your fur baby I promise I won’t let you down.

About: Have owned and breed many litters, taken care of many strays and rehomed every dog I have ever found whether it was in the streets or needing rehoming. I currently have a completely open schedule. I also offer pet waste removal services aka poop scoop services if you are in need of more than just a stroll. I have a fenced yard with central air and heat for sitting at every season of the year. I have a 4 year old black mouth Shepard and he is very friendly.

About: I have cared for animals of all species since my childhood and loved every minute of it! I prioritize the animals’ happiness above all else. I am currently a student working toward a biology degree to work in a zoo. In the meantime, I maintain and care for my own pets including a medium-size pitbull mix, and 110 pound shepherd and a leopard gecko. I practice basic maintenance as well as training and enrichment exercises. No pup should be deprived of playtime, so I make sure they have excess of it!

About: I grew up working on my grandmothers farm and helped managed a rescue of birds, reptiles, farm animals, rodents and house pets. I now have three dogs and rebuilding my farm! I’m a stay at home mom for a 9and 3 year old but I’m pretty flexible with time as I have help! I can work with what ever schedule you have and if not and can work to help find someone for you! I have an extensive history of caring for pets, whether my own or others, including feeding, playing with them, talking to them, keeping them company, and much more while their owners are away, at others home I try to play and confer them as much as possible try and keep them on their routine and try not to change much of their daily style.

About: I will start by saying I am truly passionate about what I do! I have a genuine love for all animals! I've worked at dog daycares, grooming salons, boarding facilities as well as owned my own private facility! Nothing beats the comfort of a home-setting for your pets! I've been fortunate to have met and worked with many different breeds. I understand that different breeds require different care. I am always willing to accommodate for any activities you require for your pets. Extra snuggles? You got it! Extra outside time? No sweat! You like your pup to keep a sharp mind? I have puzzles and obstacles to keep them busy! If you have extra notes for me, having a list is the best way to make sure I cover everything you need! A little more about myself and my goals. I have my Associate in Science. Im currently enrolled to become a certified veterinary technician. I will continue to gain experience and knowledge with as many pups as I can! The only thing I may do differently than others would be to not allow you in my home for a meet and greet. You’re more than welcome to view the interior from the window, but I will not risk the safety of the other dogs or yourself by allowing you to enter the home. Not only is this a safety risk, but causes serious stress to the other dogs here when a stranger walks in the home. I don’t allow guests in my home for this same reason. My home is dedicated to this business and I work everyday with multiple pups. I groom quite a bit as well! I do hope everyone understands the safety of things! I look forward to meeting you all and thank you so much for viewing my profile here on Rover! I do this for a living, it is my full time job. I am flexible with scheduling and I am usually available for last minute requests! I am available full time for your pets and any accommodations you need while you are away! Drop in visits and walks anytime, I do charge a $5 fee for visits/walks past 6pm. When I do service at a clients home I always make sure to enter and exit cautiously. Double checking to make sure the door is locked and closed completely! Making sure gates and fences are secured in the backyard. When going on walks I always make sure we are using the proper equipment for the pup going on the walk! Harness is required if you want me to walk your pup. If you don’t have a harness no worries, I’m sure I have an extra one in the size you need! Retractable leashes are not preferred, I will use my own leash if that is the only option you have available. There are some pups that take time to warm up when I arrive. They are usually the ones that become my BEST FRIEND by the end of the stay. I will not overwhelm them or force them to like me, I will give them space and let them come to me when they’re ready. If they are having a hard time eating while you’re away I will try any suggestions you have as well as use my own experience to provide suggestions as well. At my home pups are allowed to roam free in the home and outside in the backyard. If you prefer your pup to be kenneled you may need to bring your own (we are now kennel free). I won’t use kennels unless you bring one, but I will separate groups with gates when it is time to eat or relax. If your pup is typical for high anxiety/trying to escape/being antisocial/unfriendly, they will be kenneled in the evening and walked outside on a leash, this is for their own safety as well as the other pups staying. The kennel provides them a safe space that they can relax without interruption. Walking on the leash ensures they do not jump the fence. Again, we are now kennel-free and you will have to bring your own if you know your dog is typically kenneled at home or may be aggressive. I make sure to keep an eye on all areas of the fence line for any possible holes before allowing anyone outside. I am outside with them and inside with them, they are never left unattended. I have cameras outside and inside for extra coverage. I will not leave for errands or go out for fun! The only reason I leave on a work day, is to provide taxi service to pick up/drop off pups for daycare/grooming appointments they have with me. Since there are always other pups here I make sure to do gradual introductions! Grooming pups are not introduced to anyone unless they are also planning on daycare or boarding in the future. I am confident that I can read the body language and assess the situation as needed before it gets out of control. If I feel your pup is not ready to be with a group I will let them spend time alone, then slowly introduce one pup then another and see how things go. Sometimes they wont get along with one specific pup, so I just make sure to rotate them! It’s a process, but well worth it to decrease the risk of fights/injuries/even death! I am all about the safety of your pup! I want them to come home to you safe and happy!

About: I absolutely love dogs, and I have owned and loved many throughout my life. I currently have a German Shepard corgi mix and a Welsh Corgi! I’m very patient, friendly, and willing to work with all dog and owner’s needs. I am currently in college so I will have plenty of time to love and get to know your pups throughout the day! While caring for your pets, I always ensure they are well kept, fed on time, and get plenty of love and attention. I always make sure to follow pet owner’s requests because I know that these puppies are loved and treated like our own children. I have a very open schedule daily which gives me plenty of time to ensure your pet is well taken care of and shown plenty of love while you are away. It can be a stressful time for them, so being there to comfort and calm their nerves is a top priority. When caring for pets in your home, I always like to set a meet time to get to know your pups beforehand in their territory and learn how things are done daily. Keeping the routine as close to normal as possible will help your pets stay as comfortable as they can while their favorite person/people is/are away.

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 12 years, I can help with potty training, I have experience with senior dogs, and I am cpr and first aid certified on felines and canines. I have a set work schedule which makes caring for the fur babies very easy as I have a very set routine to easy work with you. Whether in my home or yours safety is my number one priority and my number two priority is to spoil and love your four legged friend.

About: Ahoy, pet parents! I’m a retired Coast Guard veteran with 22 years of service and over 30 years of caring for animals—both on land and at sea. Whether your pup needs a daily walk or a comfy port to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I offer reliable, tail-wagging walks and safe, loving boarding with plenty of belly rubs and play. With me at the helm, your furry friend gets first-class care, every time. So drop anchor and relax—your pet’s in shipshape hands! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s not just a job, it’s a lifestyle. As a retired Coast Guard veteran, I thrive on structure, reliability, and purpose, and caring for animals gives me all of that and more. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or overnight boarding, I plan my days around the needs of the pets in my care. I’ve been around animals for over 30 years, so feeding, walking, playtime, and even administering medications are second nature. Every day is a mission to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In My Home: Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I have a secure, fully fenced yard perfect for supervised play and exercise, as well as clean, comfortable kennels for pets who need their own space to relax. I follow your pet’s routine—meals, meds, walks, and cuddle time—to help them feel right at home. My home is calm, structured, and always pet-friendly. In Your Home: When visiting your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and care. I stick to your instructions and your pet’s normal routine—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or litter box cleaning—to minimize stress and keep things familiar. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. No matter where I care for your pets, they’ll get dependable, loving attention—just like they’re part of the crew!

About: I've taken care of animals since I was very young. Ive always loved to be around them, care for them, and of course PLAY with them. I can do your basic training with most younger dogs in which include sit, stay, lay down, shake, high five, heel, and also potty training. You can count on me to take the time with all animals with what ever need it may be. I'm a stay at home mother of 2. I basically have all the time in the world. I can take care of my kids and care for my fur-babies with no problem at all! I do everything exactly how you would do for your fur-baby in your home. General instructions are always followed, maybe a little extra love and play but in all your fur-baby will be well taken care of, tail wagging, full tummy, and ready for naps.

About: I have been caring for pets (dogs mostly) my entire life. I was the “second baby” to my first dog who lived to be 19 years old! Since then, I’ve taken care of all of my family’s animals and learned to love them all. My schedule is wildly flexible depending on the day as I work from home. I have days that I can often sneak away if I do have work and help care for your baby/babies. I love all animals, no matter how big or small, and even the most shy ones typically love me. I am patient and will let them get to know me so we can have the best time together!

About: I’m a college student who loves dogs, and I’ve taken care of dogs/ animals since I was a child. I have a special doggy if my own who I take care of daily!

Also, to satisfy my love for dogs and have fun! I have a fenced home for my dog and I also keep watch over her while she plays outside, and to be sure she potty’s outside to avoid inside accidents. I will also portray the same care to any clients fur babies.
