Dog Walking Pleasant Valley

About: I have cared for dogs since I was young and understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and loved. I make sure pets receive proper care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. I currently do not have a job so I will have all day to play with your pups and take care of them. I am available from 9 am to 3 pm Monday to Friday. I do not have a fenced yard but I will keep your fur babies safe and keep an eye on them at all times. I do have 2 other dogs that are friendly so your fur babies can have someone to play with.

“Marii has been great with our two dogs. Always on time and very communicative!”

About: I have been cat and dog sitting for my family since I was able to be left alone in a house and have grown up around dogs and cats. I now currently watch my family’s pets for them as well as have my own dog and cats. I can come in at most 5 times a day to check on your pet or I can walk your dog throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule so I can be free frequently throughout the day. I have tons of experience with many different types of dogs from small dogs to larger dogs. I will ask questions if I need to but am very familiar with pet care.

“Sara has been incredible with our dogs. There are three of them, all big, two with substantial anxiety, and none of them is really leash trained. In other words, they're a handful. We have been floored by Sara's insight, skill, patience, and warmth. She has charmed our dogs and left us feeling confident that they are in capable, kind hands. Sara is the first non-family member we have trusted to care for our dogs, and we are so grateful to be working with her.”

Have a high energy dog that needs a little extra enrichment? No problem! I love to hike and can offer basic training as well! My animals are my life, so let me take care of yours like they're my own! I currently work full time in pet care services! I offer around the clock care for pets and their owners! I love what I do and have never been happier! I don’t offer in my home services due to one of my dogs being selective of others. In your home we could spend the day in many ways. Playtime, snuggles, walks or hikes. Let me know what you prefer I am happy to accommodate most requests! I also have a vast inventory of enrichment toys that I can utilize for any pet!

I’m confident in managing different temperaments, following routines closely, and creating a calm, safe environment, genuine love will never miss. I'm currently free and taking a break during summer as I wanna be home training my pup so I this time sets perfect to make connections with other pets as well and emphasize doggie daycare and my services in rover. House with a fenced, green and shade backyard, crate in case client wants use it, different cognitive toys, and a buddy to play with will make your pet feel love as safe and sound.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 5 years old and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve watched friends’ dogs and cats while they’ve traveled, walked friends’ dogs, and helped care for my family’s cats. I’m a proud single mom to two amazing daughters and a Frenchie mama to Theo and Chloe, who are absolutely part of the family! ❤️ I’m also a local Realtor living in Waterford, and my flexible schedule allows me to make time for something else I truly enjoy—caring for animals! As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family members. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m reliable, attentive, respectful of your home, and always happy to send pictures and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands! 🐾💕 As a local Realtor, I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my days around appointments and commitments. This gives me the opportunity to fit in walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and plenty of playtime throughout the week! As a single mom and proud Frenchie mama, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. I understand the importance of consistency, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find times that best fit their furry family members’ needs. Whether it’s a midday potty break or some extra attention while you’re away, I’d love to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities! As a dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. When visiting your home, I’ll always respect your space, follow your pet’s established routines, and pay close attention to any special instructions or individual needs. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, walks are safe and enjoyable, and your pets receive plenty of love and attention. I’m also big on communication! You can expect pictures and updates during visits so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own! ❤️

“Nicholas has been great with our reactive dog. She’s slow to warm up, but he’s had a great attitude and now she wants belly rubs every time he comes. He’s been super responsive if there’s ever an accident. So glad to have found him!”

About: I have pet sit for friends and neighbors for a long time now, including dogs and cats. I grew up with almost any type of animal you can imagine, from little reptiles, to horses, with many in between. I currently have a dog, 2 cats, a few fish, and many chickens. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pets. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my schedule around each pet’s specific needs and routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on their normal schedule, always have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I can follow any specific instructions regarding routines, medications, training, or special needs.

“When Bruno saw Anna, he instantly gravitated towards her! He is not comfortable with strangers so it meant a lot that he loved her right away. She sent awesome pictures and I can tell that she truly is passionate about walking dogs. Lucky to have her to continue walking Bruno.”

“Stacey was fabulous. I would definitely recommend her to others.”

“Elizabeth was amazing! I want to start with this summary statement because it is the bottom line of our experience. From the meet and greet till the last detail, Elizabeth was just wonderful! She cared for our girl like she was her own! She is caring, professional, qualified, and an excellent communicator! We will definitely be asking for her help in the future!”

About: Hey! I have worked with animals for over 10 years from farm animals to fur babies. I’ve done pet sitting and foster for the majority of my life and it is a great passion of mine. I have also helped train numerous dogs in potty training, cage training and leash training. I am lucky enough to work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I am also available around holidays as well to help out when needed. I treat all animals as if they’re my own, a part of my family. I have multiple places within my home and outside of my home to create a safe place for your pet if they need down time, play or love.

About: Hi! I’m very experienced with dogs as well as cats. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. I have a lot of experience watching pets while there owners were away for a long period of time as well as stopping to let their dog out. Including puppy’s, dogs and cats. I would love to meet your pet and take care of them as my own! I’m currently a part time waitress and have a very flexible schedule. I’m very happy to help especially with any last minute bookings! I’ve had both dogs and cats my whole life of all different breeds. Ive grown up with dogs my whole life so Im very comfortable in most situations. I care for your animals as if they were my own. I know how worry some it is to leave them but I promise they are in good paws ;) with me! I make sure to take them on proper walks, pick up after them, give any medicine if necessary, and love them as if they were my own!

“Emi did a wonderful job walking and taking care of our enthusiastic young retriever. She is knowledgeable, kind and caring. It is great to have her look after our dog when we are away.”

“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”

Jennifer M.

“Angelina was very prompt and you can tell she loves Dogs! She was great! She did walks and playtime was a great service while my ankle heals! 5 stars!”

About: Having cared for 13 dogs and 4 cats (yes, we keep count), we've seen it all. Daily exercise and even bathing is quite familiar to us. Leo has hands-on experience with animal shelters, and I have biological based experience with both nutritional needs and animal anatomy, and we both can provide basic training. We currently have a year-old golden retriever and a tabby! We've dealt with a couple lovable (but difficult) pets and can deal with issues like stubbornness, biting, and basic potty training. Leo works from home, and I'm a commuter-basically, there's always someone home! We are both the "outdoorsy" type and frequent the devil's hop yard, as well as hike through our property. As STEM majors, animals keep us sane! We can also transport your pets (we have the seating and everything). Our property has a spacious (but secure) 100-acre forest, perfect for supervised walks and exploration! At home, our pets—a friendly Golden Retriever and a sweet Tabby—ensure your furry friend will never feel lonely. We can also provide crate time if needed for safety or comfort, and (given our flexibility) tailor care routines to meet each pet’s needs!

About: I absolutely love going for walks and runs with dogs! Please see updated photos for some of my previous pet clients. Recently took care of a few hairless cats as well as a big dog! I’ve taken care of pets in many settings, including messier households! (Not a neat freak so messes do not bother me!) I trained my Doberman on Couch to 5k, running through all the trails in RI. I’ve taught my cat how to shuffle cards, play piano, and spin in a circle on command, and my mom’s old cat would always practice Pilates with us at 6 in the morning. Recently I dropped in for a friend’s 2 cats, even the shy one eventually warmed up to me! They required medication in their food so she left detailed, neatly handwritten notes on the table, which helped a lot! Known for my positive and caring energy as a music therapist (who works alongside a pet therapist!) and music teacher, and with a mom with a college degree in animal science, I have a passion for animals in general. She is now dating a farmer and we now have a baby cow named clover who I help take care of occasionally on Sundays. Generally I am available in the middle of the day most days of the week for one-off visits. My boyfriend is a biologist and also has a small dog who I walk frequently in the mornings and at midnight (she’s a night owl like us!) Available to do drop-ins at your home within 45 mins of Montville - please message me at least one week before your trip to solidify the booking! Please be kind, respectful, and professional in your requests - I do not take last minute visits but would love to help you out with your furry friend. Not a veterinarian, just an animal lover with a lot of compassion!! One of my favorite activities is running, I can always walk or run with your pet, or if you prefer us to lounge, I have lots of great pet-friendly shows on our nice TV. I love driving so I’m happy to drive to you if it’s further away - as I am regularly back and forth between Westerly, RI and Uncasville, CT. Outside of teaching in a formal studio, I’ve worked in client’s homes for therapy-related meetings as well as for music lessons - and believe it or not often times there are pets who love to sing along to the music! I usually stay home in the morning so I can easily take care of your pet between 7 am and 2 pm. I used to have an office job but found it too sedentary and draining; I discovered I thrive in outdoor and home environments. I’m excited to enter this new chapter and care for animals! I have a partially fenced yard so I would generally take pets out on a leash but it is a non-busy road and very safe - the lawn is freshly mowed and we have a playground your dog can weave around! I also have a cute little neighborhood that we can circle around that is far from the highway and if your pet loved car rides, we can always go to the park and get ice cream! Occasionally our neighbor’s dog likes to come over unsolicited but he is always very gentle and friendly! My cats are also used to my mom’s boyfriend’s rambunctious dogs coming in and out from time to time and we have plenty of doors and rooms in the house and baby gates if we ever needed to keep pets separate! We also have a spare pet bed if needed that was gifted to us - we always want to make sure your pet is comfortable sleeping at night!

“Toria has treated my Rex like one of her own. Was thrilled to find such a kind, caring and communicative person to care for Rex when my vacation schedule became too busy and complicated to include him. Toria was flexible With my changing plans, communicated clearly and was dependable. Could not ask for more.”
