Dog Walking Portage Park

“Dylan helped us out very last minute and was a reliable dog walker for a couple of weeks. He communicated well with us and we’d definitely continue using his services if we needed him!”

“Ania is the best, and most importantly, my dog LOVES her! She is super communicative pre walk and sends pics and updates throughout their adventure. She kept my dog moving on the 606 and dog park...he was snoozing within 20 minutes both times after coming back! I will definitely be reaching out to Ania soon!”

“Wow Jonathon is amazing! He takes my dog on a walk every morning during the week. It gives me peace of mind knowing he is in good hands with him. Outstanding knowledge and experience second to None! Thanks for the great work my friend.”

About: I have always had dogs growing up and I currently have my own dog who is 2 years old. I love caring for my pets, spending time with them, and seeing them happy! I recently just graduated college and am not working because I am studying to take my exam to be licensed as a nurse! I have plenty of free time and want to fill some of that time spending it with your cute dog(s)! I have a fenced-in yard that my dogs love running around in. I also make sure to take my own dog out for walks early in the morning or later at night so she does not overheat in this heat.

“We had to book Justina last minute. She was very responsive and so patient. Our dog is still figuring out people and gets a bit scared but Justina worked with her and made her feel comfortable.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I couldn't have one at home so I would always go to family and friends to help pet sir or walk whenever they needed it. Once I got a place of my own I started fostering dogs and cats for people who found animals on the street. I specialize with aggressive animals and have done lots of training for puppies and seniors as well. I've never met an animal that didn't take well to me hence why I am the animal whisperer. This is currently my full time job while I'm studying to be a mechanic. I'm in the process of getting my certifications on my own so my schedule is very flexible. I always make sure to check the boundaries set by you always. Safety is everything in this line of work. I've had little ones of my own and they meant the world to me. I'll treat them and protect them as if they were my own kids.

About: I’ve always loved spending time with animals, and caring for a pet has been something I’ve wanted for a long time. To me, dogs and cats are more than just pets - they’re little companions with their own personalities, routines, and quirks. 🐾 I’ve had experience caring for my friends’ dogs, cats, and even bunnies, including feeding them, spending time with them, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m currently in between jobs and have open availability. I can discuss specific walking, sitting, feeding, and drop-in needs in advance to find a schedule that works for everyone. I don’t have a pet myself yet. But if I had, I would spend as much time with them outside as needed. No rush and some play time so they won’t get bored.

“Calvin was great! He was always on time, reliable, and communicated clearly and promptly throughout the entire process. Knowing I could count on him to walk my dog while I was out of town gave me so much peace of mind. He was professional, dependable, and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I really appreciated his responsiveness and the reassurance of knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Calvin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable dog walker, and I would happily book with him again!”

“She took such good care of our little old man. He loved her. I will definitely be hitting her up first next time we can’t take him on vacay with us. Very kind and professional.”

Cassandra P.

“Rachel has been absolutely great with Wedge. She's prompt, communicative, and caring. When I'm in the office, I feel confident that Wedge is in good hands when Rachel stops by my place to walk him. And he always looks so happy in the pictures she sends me!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have always had a love for animals. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with making sure dogs are fed on their regular schedules, taken out for walks, given plenty of playtime, and receive the attention and care they need. I enjoy taking dogs to the park, playing catch, and keeping them active and happy. I also have experience teaching basic commands and helping dogs learn to listen and follow directions. I currently have a Husky and a Pomeranian, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’ll always do my best to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I am currently a part timer, so I will have plenty of time to come and spend time with your pups. I am available on weekends. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I will follow your instructions for feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and any other special care. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I can take them for walks, play with them, and keep them company while you’re away. I also understand how important it is to respect your home and keep everything clean and secure.

About: Hey hey! My name is Anyah! I was originally born and raised in Nashville, specifically Madison. Living in the suburbs of Nashville, I’ve grown up around dogs since I was born. Big dogs, little dogs, young pups, and elderly pups as well. When I was 5 years old, I got my dearly beloved dog, Poochie, for $100 purchased off the side of the road in Madison on a hot summer day. They say how much you love a dog is a reflection of their life span and I am happy to let you know my dear Poochie lived to be 19 years old! Being that my dog was considered a “senior”, I have specialization for caring for older dogs in particular. Also, I used to be a base for cheerleaders, I am strong enough to handle large dogs, and gentle enough for smaller breeds. Additionally, since I work in social media - it's almost impossible for me not to snap a video or photos of your dog - or two! Thanks so much for considering me as your sitter. Feel free to DM me should you have any questions or concerns. I work completely remotely so I will be with your pets virtually all day as my schedule allows! They’ll be sure to get lots of love and cuddles. I can easily crate your dog if needed, though since I can work remote I love to let them roam free and stretch their legs and paws!

“Faith was great with my reactive dog. She was flexible about spending more of their “walk” inside playing and hanging out and less time walking.”

About: One thing about me- I’m the type that goes to a party and spends all my time with the pet(s). I’ve been obsessed with animals since I was a little girl, I mean how can I not? I had parakeets, fish, and bunnies growing up and finally got a cat right before Covid started. He’s my quarantine baby and I wouldn’t trade him for the world. I started Rover in college and have been taking care of cats and dogs every since. I love meeting and spending time with all kinds of fur babies. Whether it’s a dog or cat, I make sure they’re always having fun and getting all the pets they deserve. Dog walking is a perfect excuse to outside and get your body moving and I love exploring new neighborhoods with them. I love getting to know cats and their personalities. They’re all SO unique. Even though I work full time, I prioritize spending time with them before, after work, and on the weekends. I do my very best to accommodate my surroundings for whatever they need! I have extra toys and poop bags on hand just in case.

About: I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and routines. Whether it’s extra attention for shy pets or plenty of playtime for active ones, I adapt to offer tailored care that keeps them comfortable and happy. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages. I’m attentive to special diets, medications, and any other health concerns. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Additionally, I’m available to provide updates and photos, giving you peace of mind knowing your pet is feeling safe, loved, and happy while you're away! I'm currently a graduate student so I will be available for a wide range of hours, including weekends. I am flexible with my schedule and will keep my hours updated. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I ensure your pet feels at ease by maintaining their routine and providing a familiar, calm atmosphere. I always secure the home by making sure gates, doors, and any potential hazards are properly managed. I follow specific instructions for feeding, medications, and exercise, while monitoring your pet’s behavior for any changes. Trust is essential, so I keep open communication with you, providing updates and photos.

“David was AWESOME! He responded very quickly to my request, which was perfect because it was a last minute request. He was very polite and reassuring as this was my first time leaving my pups with someone else before covid. He took great care of them, followed my instructions/requests, and took photos for me. I will 100% be asking him for help in the future. Thanks David!”

About: I’ve been a loving dog mom for 14 years. I love a consistent schedule — my dogs have had a set walking routine where they’d walk for 30 mins, 3 times a day. I have experience administering meds, I’m very patient, and am able to care for puppies and senior dogs. I have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays for all-day care in my home. On weekdays, I’m available in the evenings for a walk, a meal and/or bed time. I’m in a tranquil neighborhood where your pet would get peaceful walks. There is also a nearby park we can play fetch at and/or run around.
