Dog Walking Pine Run

“Janice did a nice job walking our golden retriever. She is easy to communicate with and an overall nice person who loves dogs. Thank you!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been caring for my own pets and my neighbors’ pets since I was a kid. I’m a certified veterinary technician and currently work at a doggy daycare, where I’ve spent over two years giving dogs lots of love and personalized care. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra patience, attention, or medication. I am in college and I work, but I am always ready to work around it. I’m available for drop-ins and walks Monday through Thursday after 7pm, Fridays and Saturdays all day, and Sundays before 12 and after 5. I care for both cats and dogs with safety, patience, and respect for their individual needs. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and litter box or potty schedules. For dogs, I focus on leash handling, safe play, and proper supervision. For cats, I prioritize a calm environment, clean litter boxes, and playing if they’d like. I keep pets in safe, clean spaces, respect your home, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“I can’t recommend Simone enough! She put me at ease while I was working a 24-hour shift at the hospital, with great communication about how she and Calvin were getting along. Calvin can be nervous around people new to him, but Simone was great with him and allowed him to warm up to her at his speed :) I look forward to having Simone watch Calvin much more this winter. She even managed to capture sweet photos of Calvin; he’s never as photogenic for me! ☺️. Thank you Simone for taking such great care of my main squeeze.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been lucky to spend my life caring for them in many different ways. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and bunnies, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care, especially for pets who may be shy, nervous, or adjusting to a new environment. In addition to shelter work, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands-on experience with group play, structured routines, and safe supervision. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind, and your pet lots of love. :) Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have a flexible schedule and am available most days between 8:30 AM and 5 PM. I plan my day around pets’ needs to ensure consistent, attentive care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and personality, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication, and cuddle preferences. Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Angela was great- she took good care of my pup and was so flexible with a last minute request. I look forward to using her again and would highly recommend!”

About: I've spent my life caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's unique needs. I grew up with a pitbull who was very territorial and not friendly with strangers, so I’ve learned to understand warning signs and am comfortable with caring for dogs with behavioral issues. Today, I care for a lively household that includes an extremely energetic French Bulldog, a gentle and timid German Shepherd mix (very very large dog), a Maine Coon cat, a chinchilla, and 11 chickens. I have taken care of older dogs that needed physical support during walks, as well as dogs with medicine schedules. I am comfortable with manually putting medicine into a dog’s mouth if necessary for their routine. I have also cared for corn snakes, ball pythons and axolotls. My experience with such a wide range of critters has made me confident in caring for pets of any size, personality, and needs. I am currently on summer break from college, so my schedule is entirely flexible from Sunday-Friday. I work a part-time job on Saturdays so that is the only day I am unavailable. I can adhere to strict schedules, and I am very attentive to feeding/walking/medicine routines. I will give your pet lots of attention and as much playtime as they need (even if that means hours of high-energy play). On walks, I am used to dogs that roam somewhat freely (on a leash), but I also grew up walking a dog that I had to keep away from all people and animals, so I am able to accommodate your dog during walks in any way necessary. No matter what, you can rest assured that your pet will be loved and cared for.

“This was my first time getting a dog walker and was really worried as I have a strong reactive pitbull mix. But Katryna did great and I would recommend. She did multiple walks a day for four days and took good care of my dog. She was also very communicative throughout.”

About: I have extensive experience pet sitting cats, dogs, fish, and birds. I always think that animals are a part of ones families and should be treated so. I am a reliable pet sitter, and love animals. I have watched a range of animal ages and have experience with puppies and kittens all the way to senior animals. I also have watched diabetic pets so have experience with providing insulin and also can provide medications. I have worked with families who have multiple animals up to 7 for dogs, and 9 for cats. I love taking dogs on walks and having play time with them. I bring a loving and caring attitude to work, and you can rest assured that while you are away, your pets are in good hands.

“Elisa, you were wonderful and patient with my old pup (and me), as this was the first time i’ve had someone walk her. Thank you for taking the time to learn about her during the meet & greet and for sending pics of her first walk. I especially appreciate your flexibility with scheduling and prompt communication. Bella and I are glad we found you.”

“Ava took care of my sweet baby like he was her own. She took him on long walks and gave him lots of love. She was always sure to give my home a once-over and let me know if anything was out of the norm.”

About: I have always had dogs as a child and as an adult. I enjoy going on walks with dogs and giving them all the snuggles! I am teacher and off for the summer. I am around most days. If I am running errands it is only for a short period of time. I have a fenced in yard. I have crates if needed. I can block off sections of the house. I have a 2.5 year old yellow lab to keep your furr baby entertained. I have lots of doggy toys for entertainment as well.

“We are so happy that we have Juno in your care! She waits at our front window, always looking out for you to arrive! We are so blessed for your kind, compassionate care that you show our little monkey!”

About: Growing up in a big dog- and cat-loving home, my affinity for animals was realized at an early age. I’ve been the go-to person amongst family and friends for pet care since I was a kid. I’ve dabbled in this passion on the side my whole life, but am now pursuing it full tilt and hope to build a career in conservational zoology. In 2020, pet care grew outside of my inner circle of friends and family, and I gained clientele I still work for to this day. While in Hawaii from August 2024 to February 2026, I dog-sat for five families on top of my day job, regularly tending to their pets every week (and some every day). This included walks and meals, house calls, trips to the beach, hikes, daily visits to the local dog parks, bathing and brushing, extended stays at my home while owners traveled, and coordinating play dates with other pet-sitters. I’ve handled animals of all sizes and temperaments, administered medication, and adhered to the specific needs of the families in my care. My focus is on the comfort, stimulation, and enrichment of your pet! I am reliable and flexible, and find genuine joy in this line of work. This is how I would prefer to spend my time! My Pets: My 120lb Saint Bernard/Bernese, Hobie, was my dutiful companion in pet care, living up to his “nanny dog” personality. In July 2025, he sadly passed at the young age of 2 due to congenital kidney failure, but his short life was full to the brim of adventures with furry friends! He was equally as loving as he was loved. My world completely revolved around him while I had him. Thistle and Pants are my two cats. Thistle is a 7 year old domestic long hair, and I’ve had her since she was 6 months old. She has very much been a partner in my pet care as well, having grown up with big dogs and preferring their company over other cats. She gives off that annoyed older sister vibe, but always wants to be near the other animals and people. Pants is a 5 month old Maine Coon kitten, and he makes himself right at home in any space he occupies. He’s adventurous and outspoken, and keeps Thistle moving (and slightly irritated) throughout the day. He’s proving to be too clever for his own good! I will be adding a new dog to the family in several months, and will undergo training with a focus on companionship and socialization. I can’t wait to have another partner in pet care! Letters of Recommendation are available upon request. Thank you so much for reading, I hope to work with you soon! Rachel I’m currently available all day Tuesday through Saturday! I’m an early riser, accustomed to starting my days around 5am. I’m quick to respond and very flexible. I will adhere to YOUR preferred form of care. I love going on drives, walks, and hikes and have a roomy CR-V perfect for transporting furry friends! I like arranging play dates with social pets, or spending one-on-one time for those that prefer to be solo. My apartment in Dublin has a spacious yard with a tall fence and tree shade, and I’m happy to take your pet to their known stomping grounds or on new adventures. I live about ten minutes away from Peace Valley Park, and twenty minutes from Nockamixon State Park. I will tend to a routine that is best for your pet, whether it involve a lot of free roaming and outdoor time, or adhering to crate-training preferences. I’m an advocate for leisurely “sniff walks”, and will ensure your pet gets the stimulation they need. This isn’t a turn-and-burn rush job for me, I’m here to provide what is most enriching for your pet.

About: I’ve been walking and caring for dogs of all ages for over 8 years. I’m also a proud dog mom to my almost 5-year-old pitbull, so I know just how much your pup means to you. I’ve house sat for multiple families and treat every dog like my own — with patience, consistency, belly rubs, and plenty of playtime (zoomies included!). My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and totally loved while you’re away. I work from home with flexible hours, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends for drop-in visits, walks, or house sitting. Because of my schedule flexibility, I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and specific timing needs. I’d love to connect and figure out a schedule that works best for you and your pup! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a friendly pup who loves having company, so visiting dogs always have a built-in playmate if they enjoy socializing. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with plenty of supervised walks and outdoor time in grassy areas nearby. Safety is always my priority, and pets are never left unattended outside. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions are followed carefully — plus, of course, lots of love and attention.

“Claire was amazing to work with - when I sent in a last minute request for dog walking, she was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She sent a photo after the walk and made sure to give us a status update which was much appreciated. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had my dog since she was a puppy and helped train and raise her. I also have walked and pet sat for dogs of various breeds and sizes for the past couple years. I am home from school for the summer so I am flexible to most times of day. I will be on vacation for some weeks this summer, but other than that I am very available. I am very good with all types of dogs. I understand all dogs have different and specialized needs and will follow your instructions to a T!

About: I have over 40 years experience with dogs. I will provide lots of love and care. I have previous experience with giving medications, including shots for diabetes. I have a big yard for your pet to play in (invisible/ electric fence only) I am an elementary teacher and will be available to provide care for the summer. I can provide all day care and overnight stays in my house. I am also available for stop in visits at your house to walk, feed and provide care for your pet. Plan your summer trips! My dog is my family and yours will be mine too. I will provide a loving home with a yard to play in. I give my dog lots of exercise daily with walks and play/social time. My dog loves to play with other dogs and is very social.

About: I have been petsitting for my friends and neighbors for over 10 years now, and have dealt with many different breeds. Im a naturally very energetic person so I love to take dogs on walks/runs and play out in the yard or house with them! I have experience with different dietary needs and administering different medications for both dogs and cats. I have experience with small animals as well- I took care of 3 guinea pigs for 6 years until they passed away. I just finished my freshman year of college but Im taking a gap year to work and travel more, so I have lots of free time to pet sit! I currently only work part time so there are plenty of days where I would like to spend my time pet sitting. I only have one cat in my house so there is plenty of room for other cats or dogs to make themselves at home. My yard is mostly fenced in, but not al the way so I would need to keep any dogs on a leash if I let them out back. However, I am able to take dogs in my car to and from places like the park! I can also easily keep any pets in a crate at my house if needed. I am very attentive to animals and will without a doubt give your pets the attention they deserve and more!!

About: I have five years of pet care experience! I’ve taken care of many dogs ranging from puppies to older dogs. I am experienced with multiple night stays, and I am available for different types of services including drop-ins, walks, and daytime care! I am a college student currently working part-time. I have a very flexible schedule and hours. I can easily make time for your dog’s needs! I am around to keep your dog the company it needs! I am extremely loving, and I absolutely love to spend time with all types of dogs!
