Dog Walkers in Red Lake, TX

“Jonathan is amazing with my Sherman Shepherd Tala. Super friendly, on time and clearly loves animals. He sends pictures everyday of Tala on her walk. It’s such a relief knowing she’s getting good exercise and attention while I’m at work. Totally would recommend to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog walker.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was about 7 years old. My family owns a ranch with all sorts of animals and I have always had a passion for caregiving. I’ve worked with daycare facilities, home boarding and even fostered dogs. I feel as though my experience has helped equipped me for any dog’s needs. I am full time dog mom. Here to assist with daycare, boarding, and drop-ins. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and running with the pups. Please schedule a meet and greet to best associate our pet and address your needs. I have a 3 year old male Wheaten Terrier who is head of the welcome committee. We love to play and run and share our toys with all friends. There’s a dog park that we attend daily and would love to have some friends join us. Our complex is dog friendly and in a gated community. Your dog is in the best hands with us!

About: I have had dogs my entire life, as a four years ago I got an orange cat and could not choose between either for the life of me. I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am not available for on boarding in my home yet due to my animals. I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats for the last 4 years. Weather it’s them coming to my home or me going to yours. Thank you! I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to play and live on your pup, they need as much as attention as possible. I have two small inside dogs who are friendly with other dogs. My daughter will also be around to help entertain,cuddle if they like it. Also willing to crate if needed

About: I have had many pets in and out of my home. Mostly fosters but a few have stayed! I have 3 cats and 2 kids. All pets are welcome! I am a stay at home mom, available anytime! I love all animals and would love to help with yours! I have dealt with puppies, young dogs, and elderly dogs. Same with cats, I have handled all ages. All are welcome! I do not have a fenced in yard but we have about an acre of land. My home is small but we do have room to run and play! Kennels are preferred but not required. All animals are welcome!

About: I grew up working on my grandmothers farm and helped managed a rescue of birds, reptiles, farm animals, rodents and house pets. I now have three dogs and rebuilding my farm! I’m a stay at home mom for a 9and 3 year old but I’m pretty flexible with time as I have help! I can work with what ever schedule you have and if not and can work to help find someone for you! I have an extensive history of caring for pets, whether my own or others, including feeding, playing with them, talking to them, keeping them company, and much more while their owners are away, at others home I try to play and confer them as much as possible try and keep them on their routine and try not to change much of their daily style.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was about 12. I have always loved animals and being able to take care of them and play with them. I am currently without a job and would love to make pet sitting a full time job if possible. With that being said I will have plenty of time to play with your dog or cat, take it out to use the bathroom, and etc… I have one fur baby of my own. I understand the need to make sure your fur baby will be okay. If you trust me with your fur baby I promise I won’t let you down.

About: I have cared for dogs all of my life. I have always enjoyed meeting new dogs and new animals. I cannot wait to meet your little sweeties and give them the care you need. I’m currently working a job where I have lots of free time and can create my own schedule. Let me know what you need and I will work with it. I would plan on caring for pets in your home, since I do not have a fenced in back yard, and have my own pets. In your home I would take your pet out for walks, give treats throughout the day and play with them when they need attention.

About: I will start by saying I am truly passionate about what I do! I have a genuine love for all animals! I've worked at dog daycares, grooming salons, boarding facilities as well as owned my own private facility! Nothing beats the comfort of a home-setting for your pets! I've been fortunate to have met and worked with many different breeds. I understand that different breeds require different care. I am always willing to accommodate for any activities you require for your pets. Extra snuggles? You got it! Extra outside time? No sweat! You like your pup to keep a sharp mind? I have puzzles and obstacles to keep them busy! If you have extra notes for me, having a list is the best way to make sure I cover everything you need! A little more about myself and my goals. I have my Associate in Science. Im currently enrolled to become a certified veterinary technician. I will continue to gain experience and knowledge with as many pups as I can! The only thing I may do differently than others would be to not allow you in my home for a meet and greet. You’re more than welcome to view the interior from the window, but I will not risk the safety of the other dogs or yourself by allowing you to enter the home. Not only is this a safety risk, but causes serious stress to the other dogs here when a stranger walks in the home. I don’t allow guests in my home for this same reason. My home is dedicated to this business and I work everyday with multiple pups. I groom quite a bit as well! I do hope everyone understands the safety of things! I look forward to meeting you all and thank you so much for viewing my profile here on Rover! I do this for a living, it is my full time job. I am flexible with scheduling and I am usually available for last minute requests! I am available full time for your pets and any accommodations you need while you are away! Drop in visits and walks anytime, I do charge a $5 fee for visits/walks past 6pm. When I do service at a clients home I always make sure to enter and exit cautiously. Double checking to make sure the door is locked and closed completely! Making sure gates and fences are secured in the backyard. When going on walks I always make sure we are using the proper equipment for the pup going on the walk! Harness is required if you want me to walk your pup. If you don’t have a harness no worries, I’m sure I have an extra one in the size you need! Retractable leashes are not preferred, I will use my own leash if that is the only option you have available. There are some pups that take time to warm up when I arrive. They are usually the ones that become my BEST FRIEND by the end of the stay. I will not overwhelm them or force them to like me, I will give them space and let them come to me when they’re ready. If they are having a hard time eating while you’re away I will try any suggestions you have as well as use my own experience to provide suggestions as well. At my home pups are allowed to roam free in the home and outside in the backyard. If you prefer your pup to be kenneled you may need to bring your own (we are now kennel free). I won’t use kennels unless you bring one, but I will separate groups with gates when it is time to eat or relax. If your pup is typical for high anxiety/trying to escape/being antisocial/unfriendly, they will be kenneled in the evening and walked outside on a leash, this is for their own safety as well as the other pups staying. The kennel provides them a safe space that they can relax without interruption. Walking on the leash ensures they do not jump the fence. Again, we are now kennel-free and you will have to bring your own if you know your dog is typically kenneled at home or may be aggressive. I make sure to keep an eye on all areas of the fence line for any possible holes before allowing anyone outside. I am outside with them and inside with them, they are never left unattended. I have cameras outside and inside for extra coverage. I will not leave for errands or go out for fun! The only reason I leave on a work day, is to provide taxi service to pick up/drop off pups for daycare/grooming appointments they have with me. Since there are always other pups here I make sure to do gradual introductions! Grooming pups are not introduced to anyone unless they are also planning on daycare or boarding in the future. I am confident that I can read the body language and assess the situation as needed before it gets out of control. If I feel your pup is not ready to be with a group I will let them spend time alone, then slowly introduce one pup then another and see how things go. Sometimes they wont get along with one specific pup, so I just make sure to rotate them! It’s a process, but well worth it to decrease the risk of fights/injuries/even death! I am all about the safety of your pup! I want them to come home to you safe and happy!

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.
