Dog Walking Quincy

About: As retirees, Steven and I have reached a point in our lives where we have the time and freedom to pursue something we truly love...caring for our furry friends! We have 2 great guys of our own, Mac and Zac! Our flexible schedules have afforded us plenty of time to devote to those 2, providing them with the absolute best loving and safe home environment. In fact, we think they think we retired just for them! They have never been happier. And we know your pet (s) will love being with us too. We absolutely hated when we had to choose to lodge our guys in an impersonal setting, such as a commercial kennel. So we decided to "pay it forward" and offer others a much better alternative for their pets. Not to mention, the peace of mind of knowing that your pets are in the best of care. So whether it's walks, playtime or just good company, we are here to help! Being retired affords us the opportunity to be home daily. Therefore, our services are available 7 days a week. We love being outdoors but more than anything, we love pets! We've found that dogs have a sense of routine. Changes in that routine can be over-stimulating. Therefore, the preferred setting for dogs is to be either in their own homes or in a more personal home-like setting. That's why our services are so vital. Theirs definitely NO PLACE LIKE HOME (or HOME-LIKE) . We offer spacious climate controlled accommodations which include: 1. 2 - Generous size sleeping suite with room to move around and relax comfortably. 2. Comfy and clean doggie beds or you can choose to bring your own. 3. Individual feeding station which includes filtrated water dispensers 4. Personal Care - Individualized care catering to dog's unique needs and preferences

About: I grew up caring for all sorts of animals. I currently live on a farm and have worked with just about any animals you can think of. I have previously worked as a kennel tech at a boarding/training facility. Animals have my heart and I would love to care for your babies too! I work part time for a family business and make my own schedule. I am free majority of the time so I always have plenty of time to take care of your pets My dogs go out multiple times a day and exercise all of the time. We play fetch, run, jump, and all other sorts of exercises. I always allow my animals to get plenty of work indoors and outdoors to keep them happy and in shape.

About: I worked at Quincy Animal Hospital for five years. I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets. I've bottle-fed kittens, the youngest being just two days old. I’ve also cared for senior dogs. I am comfortable administering medications as needed. I have experience managing dogs with a history of seizures and dealing with dogs affected by Cushing’s disease. Additionally, I am quite familiar with handling heartworm-positive dogs and dogs with diabetes. I take pride in communicating openly and clearly with pet owners. If I notice any abnormalities, I make sure to notify their owners. Pet care isn't just a side hustle for me; it's a daily part of my life, whether I'm caring for my own animals or others'. I always make sure to do a meet and greet before scheduling to confirm compatibility. One of my top priorities is providing peace of mind.

“I highly recommend Andrew. My dogs (2 pitbulls) love him. He was available on short notice and came through with flying colors. I really appreciate you Andrew!”

About: Hi, I’m Analia! What separates me from other pet sitters is my unique experiences with animals while working and managing in a corporate setting (a pet store). I know very well the standard of care that the pickiest of clients (and animals!) expect, and my hope is to be allowed to extend such high standards and more to any pets in need of a buddy, and facilitate your peace of mind while they’re under my watch! My love for animals is boundless, and I can assure you that your animal will come back to you feeling super loved and appreciated too :) I am a happy and enthusiastic learner and most of all very, very adaptable to your pet’s individual needs and special requirements as well as your own personal day to day requests. Currently part time with a lottttt of free time in the afternoon! I am able to make drop in visits or walks as need be. I've also worked together with my partner (very loving and a stickler for rules- your rules!) to ensure we cover any gaps in timely care. My partner would be part of the meet and greet should we need to ensure your pets are comfortable and socialized if my visits before and after work do not suffice :) It goes without saying, I will heed whatever tips you have for your pets—they’re your babies after all!!— and I will absolutely make sure their safety and well-being is paramount while in my care! Never off a leash when outside, and always with my phone handy in case of emergencies. (Knock on wood!)

About: I’m a dependable and caring animal lover (with my own cat named Zuko!) who understands that every pet has their own personality and needs. I provide patient, attentive care and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and giving lots of affection. I’m comfortable with energetic young pets who need exercise and structure, as well as senior pets who need a gentler pace, patience, and extra attention. I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands 😊 I’m a full time student at FSU pursuing my masters in social work. Because I’m full time, my schedule is currently free due to focusing on my studies and not really having time for a full time job with internships as well. I’m mostly free this summer with my class days on T/TH and the rest of the week is open! I’m especially not busy on weekends. I’m willing to discuss days and times more with pet parents who may need me drop in on class days as well depending on what time my classes end ✨ I provide loving, reliable care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level. For overnight house sitting, I stay in your home so your pet can remain in a familiar environment with their normal schedule, reducing stress while you’re away. I make sure they receive feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. For drop-in visits, I stop by to feed, refresh water, clean litter boxes or pick up waste, provide potty breaks, playtime, and check on your pet’s overall well-being. For dog walking, I provide safe, attentive walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs, making sure they get exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of care. I always respect your home, follow instructions closely, and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. Family, friends, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure every pet feels safe and happy. I love making sure pets get all the attention, walks, and playtime they need while their owners are away. I dedicate all my time for your pet. My home is pet safe, clean, and comfortable, so your fur baby will feel right at home. I can crate dogs if needed and always provide supervised outdoor time, lots of cuddles, and constant care to make sure every pet feels safe and loved.

About: I am a full time Registered Nurse with 4 dogs of my own. 2 mutts and 2 Great Danes. I am doing this for fun on my off days, I have a passion for animals and love caring for them. I have experience in giving medications and assisting with mobility. I care for my own dogs daily. This is something fun for me to help other pet parents be able to feel their animals needs are met while out of town or away on vacation! I hope to help keep you from having to board your animals! I have a fenced yard and my dogs are crate trained and potty trained. I also take them on walks and play with toys or play fetch frequently!

“I cannot say enough about Stella! My dog is obsessed with her and she is so good with her in return. You can tell she really cares about the animals. Highly recommend using her for any of your pet needs.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life! I started watching/walking my neighbors and family dogs when I was 10! In high school I started volunteering for my local shelter and grew a passion for it that I started volunteering at the shelter away at college as well. I love advocating for all types of animals and really enjoy their company! I have experience with a variety of breeds ,sizes, and ages for dogs and am also a a cat lover! I have a very flexible and open schedule, which allows me to be available for regular drop-ins, walks, feeding, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and lots of love while making sure they stay comfortable in their normal routine. I have experience caring for both a younger dog and an older cat, so I understand the different needs, energy levels, and care that pets of all ages require. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, safety is always my top priority, and I make sure pets are supervised, secure, well cared for, and treated like family.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Professionally I have worked with animals for about 5 years now. I worked at a doggy daycare for almost 3 years. Working there taught me a great deal about animal behavior and different kinds of dog personalities. I currently work at an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant. My job duties involve administering medication daily and taking care of both dogs and cats. I have previously worked at an emergency veterinary hospital as well, which helped me learn how to react best under pressure. I have 3 fur babies of my own (1 dog and 2 cats). I have previously volunteered at local animal shelters where I met many different types of dogs and cats. I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant, so during the week I am only available before 7:30am and after 5:30pm. I am fully available on the weekends! I am happy to follow any directions left for me about caring for your fur babies! I have pets of my own that all have different feeding schedules, amounts, and medications. So lists of requests and directions do not scare me!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have had both dogs and cats since I was a young child. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of providing consistent care, patience, and love. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities for friends, family, and neighbors. My responsibilities have included feeding, refreshing water, administering oral medications when needed, taking dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, picking up after pets, playing with them, providing companionship, and making sure they stick to their normal routines so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. A few months ago, my boyfriend and I found an 8-year-old dog who was a stray in the woods. He lives with my boyfriend so you won’t have to worry about your pet in case they do not do well with other dogs. Welcoming him into our lives has been an incredibly rewarding experience and has taught me even more about earning a dog’s trust, being patient, and understanding that every pet has unique needs and a different personality. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care, plenty of attention, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work full-time, but I’m off all day on Mondays and Tuesdays, which gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention. I’m also available after 1:30 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get their walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I keep the home clean by cleaning up after pets and making sure food and water areas stay tidy. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing. I follow all care instructions carefully and respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home.

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets for many years! All types of animals as well. I have taken care of high energy dogs like Huskies, and Belgian Malinois. I also have grown up with dogs that can be aggressive and dogs with anxiety. I can administer medication, take them for long walks and play with them thoroughly. I’m working full time but a flexible schedule. I’m usually working mid day with an hour break. And I can adjust my schedule with notice in advance to work around your pets needs. I will gladly play with your pets in a backyard, take them for long walks, play with them inside etc. My pets are like my kids and I will treat yours as such!

About: I grew up with a Rottweiler named diamond. She got old and had arthritis so she needed medication at a certain time. Her walks had to be timed and within mobility. I am a full-time student my classes usually end early to mid afternoon, so my time is a little bit more flexible typically I have an hour to two hours in between certain classes. Since growing up with animals, I’m always on high alert whenever I hear like a rustle of a bag or weird noise coming from pets I’m on my feet and checking out what they’re doing and what they’re getting into for their safety. I also try to keep things that are hazardous for animals out of their reach or put up in my home. I have child box on cabinets in my kitchen and my medicine cabinet .

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I've been dog sitting for over a year and had my own dogs for more than 7 years. Caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I don't see Rover as just a job, it's more like a hobby that I really enjoy. Since I can't have a dog of my own right now, caring for other people's dogs allows me to enjoy their company and give them lots of love and attention I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Dogs are rarely left alone and can enjoy multiple walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of companionship. I live in a spacious home with a large backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. Since I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, pets receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I always follow each pet's routine and owner's instructions carefully to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care ❤️🐶

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life, mainly dogs. I have owned a variety of breeds but mainly chihuahuas, and now care for my German Shepherd and two cats daily. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, training basics, and reading pet body language to keep animals safe and comfortable. I’ve pet-sat for neighbors, including caring for a diabetic dog requiring insulin injections and a special diet. I’m confident administering medication, following routines precisely, and monitoring health needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Your animal’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I update my availability based on my class schedule. I’m looking to use my extra time doing something I enjoy like caring for animals. My schedule allows me to be available for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I take the time to understand each animal’s routine, needs, and personality so they feel secure while you’re away. In your home, I want to know feeding schedules, crate routines, medications, preferred walking routes, and any house rules you have in place. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior that might signal stress or discomfort. I keep a calm, clean environment and ensure pets have fresh water and attention tailored to their energy level. You can expect regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel confident trusting me with your pets and for them to feel safe, loved, and respected in my care.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and worked with many shelters to provide assistance with animals. Training to become a vet at my college of Florida State University. Pet care fits into my daily routine all the time. Love putting animals first and don’t have much for the summer since all my classes are online. I respect the clients home and make sure whatever I touch or use I put back into the same place in which I found it. I would give clients animals respect and excitement to bring joy to being taken care of
