Dog Walking Purdys

“We are so grateful to have found Joseph. Our mini poodle is quite skittish around people other than family, and Joseph showed great patience and understanding with her, allowing her to get comfortable on her own timeline. Now when he arrives, our dog is thrilled to see him and comes home from walks happy and relaxed. We also appreciate Joseph's dependability and reliability; we trust him completely.”

About: Our pets are a very special part of our families. They each have their own quirks and personalities, and they all bring so much love and joy to our lives. I will meet your pet’s needs, and spend time with them in the way they like the most. I have been a dog walker and pet care provider for 17 years now, and I still love my job! Each pet that I meet makes me smile. I like to think that I am able to give some of the happiness these animals bring to me, back to them. Over my 17 years of being a pet care provider, I have had experience with dogs of all different breeds, sizes and ages -from puppies to seniors. I am fully insured. I am willing to work with your pup on basic training, or put them in my car, for a short drive to a favorite walking area. If you need me to feed your dog or cat, please let me know. I can also spend time playing or cuddling with your dog or cat. When I am not enjoying the company of pets, I am drawing or painting pet portraits for commissions. I look forward to meeting your special pet. I will give them the activity, affection, and attention that is right for them. I am dependable, professional and most of all, caring. You can count on me to take good care of your pet, and you can feel confident, knowing that your pet is in exceptional hands, when you are not able to take care of them yourself. I have been walking dogs and taking care of pets during the day for 17 years now, and I spend my evenings drawing and painting pets for commissions as a pet portrait artist. It’s all about the animals with me! I would love to come to your home and walk your dog in your neighborhood, or perhaps drive them to a close by favorite walking area. Some dogs have invisible fence collars, and need to be driven off the property, or they live on busy streets, that are not safe streets to walk on. I can drive them to a quiet side street or a park, if you prefer. You can request a feeding, if you would like, and I could do a quick scan of the house for any unexpected accidents, and clean them up for you. I can do drop-in visit (15 minutes), or a full 30 minute walk or play in the yard. More time can be requested, if necessary. For cat care, I can clean the litter boxes, feed your cat/refresh their water, and play or cuddle with them. I can also take a quick scan of the house for messes for them also.

“Claire was great! I have booked Claire for repeat visits, and she is always timely and responsive. My dog isn't the most motivated walker, but she gets him out and about getting his workout.”

“Kathleen is wonderful and extremely thorough. When we forgot to set out bags, she was prepared with some extras. She also has extra harnesses and other accessories just to be ultra prepared. We really love that we found someone reliable and kind to take care of Pino.”

“Responsive. Responsible. Very sweet with our dog. What more could we ask for. Martin has been a great partner, and I’ve gladly recommended him to pet-owning friends.”

About: Hi there! My name is Kat, and I have a deep, well-rounded background in animal care. With 3+ years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and 10 years of personal pet sitting (and 22+ years of animal-loving!), I bring calm expertise, safety awareness, and specialized care that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I'm also a certified Wilderness First Responder and American Red Cross CPR Certified. Rescue Training: My time in animal rescue taught me to read subtle animal body language, prevent stressful situations, and keep pets safe and relaxed in any environment, while also serving as a friend and comfort to animals in need! Medication Administration: I have experience giving oral, topical, and routine medications to a wide variety of animals, ranging from kittens to senior dogs. Experience in All Sizes & Energy Levels: From toy breeds to giant dogs, I understand how to handle different temperaments and physical needs. I love taking high-energy dogs on extensive, engaging walks (especially on our local hiking trails!) to keep them physically exercised and mentally happy. I am a full-time student supporting myself while working toward my paralegal certification. I take my courses online from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Monday-Thursday), so I am available for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, or whatever your pet may need! Since I offer only In-House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and walk services, your pets will receive 1-on-1 attention without leaving the comfort of their familiar surroundings. My priority is maintaining their daily routine while keeping your home secure and your pets safe. With every visit, I will provide consistent photo updates and detailed reports after each drop-in/day! Flexible, personalized pet care (drop-ins & sitting): Regardless of whether it's a quick 30-minute stop-in for food, meds, play, and potty breaks, or an overnight stay, I adapt entirely to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I strive to keep homes tidy, secure, and maintained, reducing travel stress for everyone and helping pets feel their best! Outdoor Safety: During walks and outdoor breaks, safety is paramount- I practice attentive situational awareness and strive to maintain large distances from any off-leash dogs, as well as ensuring your pet is safely and securely harnessed/leashed. Overall Safety Precautions: From my rescue experience, animals are curious!- In this, I ensure all doors, gates, and deadbolts are latched securely during every entry and exit, double-check that food and medications are sealed out of reach, as well as keeping a watchful eye out for subtle changes in pet health or behavior. Home Maintenance/Overall Peace of Mind: During house sits and drop-ins, I am happy to bring in mail, water plants, keep your living spaces spotless, or help with any other tasks.

About: I have had 2 dogs ever since I was a child. I take care of them myself which includes taking them on walks, playing in the yard, giving them food and water and making sure they are satisfied and comfortable in their home and vet visits of course! I have been dog walking and dog sitting as well for about 3 years now and love the company they bring! I would love to care for your pets and help you out in a time of need! I am a college student. Some of my classes are virtual so I am home a decent amount. I am home Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday all day and night. On Tuesday and Thursday I have classes from 12:00-4:00 but am available before and after that. I have a fenced in yard which allows me to be able to go outside with the dog and play freely. I love when dogs are able run around and get exercise in without the worry of the dog running away.

“Great communication on and off the app, im glad I was able to find someone fully committed with such short notice!”

“Gabbi has been amazing with our super anxious dog. She has been so calm and patient with her and has worked hard to gain her trust. Our dog has opened up to her. As a person she is also kind, flexible and caring. Highly recommend”

About: I have had dogs, cats, puppies in my life since I was born. I have had the pleasure of training all types of dogs in many different areas. When I was younger my family used to always take trips up to Marthas Vineyard, we always had to leave our dogs at a kennel which we realized later on was not the best thing to do for our dogs. Emotionally/mentally we could tell it had taken a toll on them, so we started leaving them home with Pet Sitters. That was the best decision we had made. I want to be able to provide the same love and care that our pet sitters have provided in the past, but for your pet! Im currently working privately as a Personal Trainer and a Hypnotherapist Practitioner so my schedule is quite flexible. I also offer Reiki for both people and pets (Dogs, Cats, Horses)!!! I don’t typically board pets but would be willing to work with someone if the situation was right. I am also willing and able to crate your pet if thats something you do in your home!

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was 14 years old. I started my own business because it felt more personal and enjoyable than my other animal care jobs. My care is tailored to your pets needs, reliable, and worry free. I will give ur pet the unconditional love, care, and safety that I would give my own. Along with pet care I also administer medication, transport pets to and from vet and transport pets to and from grooming. My main goal is to make sure you’re happy, comfortable and worry free with your pet in my care I am in Delray until next Wednesday if anyone needs some help feel free to reach out. I would love to keep your fur babies company 😊 I do work during the day but still house sit while you're on vacation, drop by for a quick hello and treats, or take them on a nice long walk with a toy to play with if desired. Your pet will surely miss you while you’re gone. That’s why I give them love like I would give my own so they are the most comfortable and safest they can be until you return to them

About: I have been taken care of animals since I’m 25 dogs and cats me and my wife love Animals we have French bulldogs and 2 cats I work full time but have a lot of spare time and looking to do something I love which is taken care of peoples animals Walk my dogs and have a big yard I take them out in to play and run around so I’m always with my dogs and cats

About: As long as I can remember, I have been around dogs. My best friends growing up were a pair of black labs named Tillie and Jodi and my little jack russell named Widget. I grew up feeding, walking and caring for these dogs and I'll always consider them family. In my late teens I worked for Millstone Farmstead in Wilton, CT. There I cared for a variety of animals such as llamas, sheep, pigs, and chickens. I am very comfortable caring for and hanging out with animals (even if they are significantly larger than me like those llamas...) I am currently working as a freelance musician and audio engineer. My schedule is very flexible and I am open to making accommodations for clients. I believe in respect and transparency when it comes to being in someone else's home and especially when caring for their animals. I am happy to send frequent updates and abide by any and all house rules.

“I'm so grateful for Kristine and her help with my foxhound Cersei. I'm a single dog-parent and Cersei is a lot of work. Kristine is punctual, attentive, includes photos (in which Cersei is always smiling), and goes above and beyond to make sure Cersei is cared for. I can't recommend Kristine more highly!”

About: I have grown up around animals all my life. From guinea pigs, to parakeets, hamsters, and many more. I have experience working in a kennel, and as of now, I have 8 dogs at home and I share a 1 year old puppy with my significant other. I am currently a nanny throughout the week (Monday through Thursday, with the exception to some Friday shifts) but have availability other days for drop ins, walks, feedings, boarding, and other services. My schedule starting this upcoming September will change: Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday: I have availability up until 11:30 am. Wednesday: no availability until after 6 pm. Fridays, and weekends are a first come, first serve. I have a fenced in backyard, I live on a private road with a cul de sac, and if your pet is not well around other animals, they will be in a separate area. I also am totally open to pets laying on my bed and furniture.
