Dog Walkers in Parchment, MI

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.

About: What sets me apart from others is my passion, knowledge, and attention to detail. I have a special interest in training and managing reactive dogs and socializing puppies! I work full time at a local vet clinic & do pet sitting on my days off (Friday-Sunday) I have 3 dogs of my own as well! I care for your pets in YOUR home which I believe makes them more comfortable! I do drop in visits with the duration of your choice. ❤️

About: Hello! My name is Arica. I have been taking care of pets for many years. I love animals, especially dogs. I don’t have any kids and most of my time is spent at home. I do have a job but it is all remote and I can control the days and hours I work. I will treat your fur babies like my own and will make sure your house is looking as good as you left it. If you agree to let me take care of your babies I will do the best in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Message me if you have any questions. Thank you 😊 I work for a company that is remote. I have full control of the scheduling and when I work. So there would be no problem fitting it in to my routine! I make sure to treat them like family. I take care of the home as well. I would follow all of owners guidelines for walks, crating, and administering medication. Always making sure your pup is safe, having a tight hold onto leashes when walking!

“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 have lived on a farm since I was born and animals have always been a huge part of my life! I am very passionate about making sure all furry friends live a fun and safe life! I love meeting new animals and learning all their different personalities. This summer, I am available most days to hang out with your furry friends! I am currently a teacher on summer vacation looking to make some extra money, and get in her animal fix! Message me and we can get something in the books! I am always having one eye on them at all times. Whether we are on a walk, in the backyard or just in the house. I prioritize the safety of your best friend!

“Did a great job meeting our two dogs and understood all the instruction we have for when we typically walk them. Enjoyed how the whole meeting went!”

“Arantza has been absolutely fantastic. She is reliable, dependable, and clearly cares about the dogs she works with. I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in her hands. Highly recommend her services.”

About: I am a lover of all animals. My experience with exotic reptiles, cats, dogs, rabbits, and birds would make ome a qualified choice. My background in kennel boarding and animal hospitals has improved my skills with animal behavior. My home is cozy, quiet and I live alone. I have a 16 year old Dachshund Doogie, 13 year old cat Ruby, 10 year old cat Oscar, and a 9 year old dachshund Ziggy. All up to date on shots and friendly with other dogs. I would love to get to know the community and their fur babies to help out whenever possible. Animals are amazing and therapeutic to me so I would be honored if chosen! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me and I hope I can assist with your fur babies. I do work remotely, so I’m free usually if I have a two hour notice and I’m always home on the weekends. I can do morning, afternoon, evening walks, and weekends. I have a fenced in yard and have a medium dog door available for the pups to come and go and of course I hang outside with them. I also have PetCube cams set up throughout the house to make sure they’re safe when I run to do errands. Extra peace of mind!

“Avery was on time and communicative when coming to let out our dog. She did a great job and we would contact her again!”

About: I have been taking care of all sorts of animals my whole life. I used to have a small farm. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I work part time from home. I can bring your dog out at any time, for walks and I’m available for boarding anytime. Also kids to play with them. I have 3 friendly dogs, cats and kids so your furry babies will have company so they don’t get lonely. They will be loved and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I used to assist my mom in breeding and have been pet sitting for family and friends for many years. I currently have a bulldog of my own and a leopard gecko. I work full time but I have my own dog so I can easily make sure our furry friends are well taken care of and looked after when your away! I can easily follow whatever your furry friends schedule is, whether it’s putting them in a crate to keep them safe and secure or making sure they are safe roaming through the house while your away!

About: I have had experience with dogs for over 11 years! My parents got their first dog in 2015 and she is still kicking it to this day. They also got another dog in 2020 so i’ve had experience with two dogs for 6 years! I would help them take care of their dogs by watching them, playing with them, taking them for walks, and monitoring them. I taught them how to sit and lay down (even though I was young at the time). I’m currently working part-time, only 10 hours a week so I will have plenty of availability to watch/take care of your pets! I will make sure that the pet is being monitored 24/7! Even if there is a fenced in yard or the pet is strictly indoors I would make sure that they are safe and being monitored the entire time. Before I start I would prefer to have a list of habits and traits your pet might have so I can make sure that everything is completely normal while I watch over/take care of them.

About: Hi there! My name is Ashley, and I’m a lifelong animal lover based in the Kalamazoo area. I work full-time in hospitality sales, but caring for animals has always been one of my favorite things to do. I’ve been dog and cat sitting on and off for about 15 years and love getting the chance to spend time with furry friends of all kinds! I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have a rescue Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix named Leo, who has taught me so much about patience, behavior, and individualized care. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels, from easygoing seniors to high-energy terriers and anxious or shy pets. I’ve also cared for cats, guinea pigs, and other small pets over the years. I typically prefer caring for pets in their own home because I believe familiar surroundings help them feel more comfortable and less stressed while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for the entire time you’re gone. I’m also a big believer in communication, so you can always expect regular updates and photos throughout the stay! I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I work at a job in Kalamazoo from 9-5, Monday-Friday and we have a hybrid work schedule. I need to be in the office 1 full day and another half day for the most part. Depending on my week and schedule I can work where I need to and can adjust based on what you need. Some weeks are busier than others, and typically if I know I can't be available or will be busy for 8 hours or more, I will make myself unavailable. Currently I live in a rental house with a small yard that is not fenced in. I am able to let my dog out in the yard and we also take daily walks. I have a smaller house and prefer to watch dogs in your home if possible. I find that they are much more comfortable in their own home and I can do my best to follow their routine just like you would if you were home.

“Gabrielle was wonderful and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their dogs! She was even willing to go out of her way to come over on her lunch break one of the days to let my dogs go potty! I will definitely be booking with her in the future.”

About: I've loved animals my whole life. I have a lizard which I love dearly, and I grew up with a variety of family pets but I haven’t had a chance to get one on my own. I volunteer to watch my friends and families pets for multiple years, just starting to do it professionally! I hope to utilize this opportunity to get my animal fix while incorporating some exercise! I have experience with senior cats, dogs, including dogs with behavioral issues, as well as lizards, hamsters and the occasional bird or fish. I work another full time job that is a fixed schedule Monday through Friday, so l am capable of working regular hours for your and your pets! This will be a top priority and I am so excited to care for your pet and meet new animal lovers! I have house-sit for multiple friends and family members and I make sure to leave the house as I found it and make sure to abide and respect any house rules!
