Dog Walking Reese

About: I have experience caring for dogs both for my family and through pet-sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I regularly help care for my sister’s dogs and have been responsible for their care when she is away. This includes feeding them, providing fresh water, taking them for walks, spending time playing with them, and making sure they receive their vitamins, supplements, and other care according to their normal routine. I understand that every pet is different, so I take instructions from owners seriously. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications and supplements, exercise needs, household rules, and any special instructions an owner provides. I am comfortable asking questions when I need clarification because I would rather make sure I am doing something correctly than make an assumption. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I enjoy walks, playtime, and simply relaxing with them so they have companionship while their owners are away. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining the routine they are accustomed to at home. I wouldn't put the detailed autism explanation in this first section. This establishes Matthew as a capable pet caregiver first. Then, when we get to a section about communication, routines, or what owners need to know, we can explain his disability, his need for direct instructions, and your role as his communication support. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. Because I do not currently work a traditional full-time schedule, I am often available throughout the day and can provide companionship, walks, playtime, feeding, and other routine care. I do best when scheduling expectations are communicated clearly in advance. If your pet needs care at specific times—such as meals, medications, walks, potty breaks, or bedtime routines—please provide those times as specifically as possible. Having a clear schedule helps me maintain your pet’s normal routine and make sure nothing important is missed. I primarily use an e-bike for transportation, so please let me know ahead of time if your pet’s care will require transportation outside of the home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine so they can feel comfortable and secure while you are away. Because I am autistic, I do best with clear, direct, and detailed instructions. I can sometimes have difficulty recognizing implied expectations, hints, or instructions that are open to interpretation. Written instructions are especially helpful for things such as medications, feeding, household rules, behaviors to watch for, areas that are off-limits, and what I should do if an unexpected situation occurs. If something is unclear, I would rather ask questions than assume what an owner wants. My sister also provides communication support when needed. She tries to attend meet-and-greets with me whenever possible and is available by phone during bookings and stays to help clarify instructions, make sure important questions are asked, and assist me with communicating detailed updates to owners. I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment while respecting your home and following the routine you have established for your pet.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust, so I take communication seriously. I’ll keep you updated, follow your instructions, and treat your dog like they’re my own. I’m reliable, punctual, and easy to communicate with. I understand that plans can change, so I do my best to be flexible and work around your schedule.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since birth and till death. I’ve been around pets my whole life and know the do’s and don’t’s of pet care.

About: I’m a lifelong dog‑and‑cat lover who’s owned up to four dogs at once and would absolutely own a zoo if society would let me. I’ve got tons of experience with dog walks, overnight care, and keeping both dogs and cats happy, fed, and loved. Your pets will be treated like family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full‑time and already surrounded by animals and little animal‑lovers. I have two kids under three who absolutely adore pets, so giving dogs and cats attention, playtime, and love is part of our everyday rhythm.

I have separate wings of the house where I can keep dogs or cats separated if needed, and a very large fenced‑in backyard with plenty of room to roam, sniff, and play. I also have two large crates available for pups who need or prefer crate time. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routines! To include feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions!:) So your pets feel secure and comfortable.

About: I have had the privilege and honor of raising dogs and cats pretty much all my life. I grew up in my younger years on a farm and not a stranger of taking care of all types of animals and pets. I find dogs and cats become more then "pets" they become family (children if you will). I love taking care of both dogs and cats along with spending time with them. I have a dog, his name is Trooper and he is my world. He is a German Shepard with a black lab. I now also live with 3 cats, named Penny, Pepper, and Petunia (Lulu for short). I live with them with my Girlfriend and they are my world. I love spending time with them and showing them much love. I would love to meet your furry companion along with being entrusted with their care and friendship. I find I am a very responsible adult who knows, how to stick to a feeding schedule / walking schedule / or even if it is a quick drop in that you may require of your furry love one. I know how to handle or manage whatever situation that may arise while in my care. As for allowing me to enter your home (if required), I am a very trustworthy individual and will also respect your privacy of both your home and your pet. I am pretty flexible with my time, if given notice and most of the time, can adjust on a moments notice. So if your wanting someone to care of your pet while in your absent and receive updates / photos (when you are missing them) or videos of your pet happy. Please allow me to enter your pets life, even if it is for a brief period of time. As they say; "They may be in our life for a brief period of our lives, but we will be in their life forever". At this time, I am attending school. However, I do have a lot of free time on my hands before and after school, so whatever your schedule would need, we can always work around that. and whatever details or extra instructions that are required, we can work with that also. Rest is sure that your set appointment upcoming appointment or current appointments will have the utmost priority and care. Your pet safety welfare are my top concern with that being said, I can guarantee that you can trust me inside your home and or with the care of your dog or cat or both. Whatever I can do to give you peace of mind that your pat is in great care. We can do also.

About: I am an Army Veteran who learned the power of a bond between animals and humans after being discharged from the military and needing a companion of my own. I am currently a dog trainer as well as pursuing a bachelor's degree in animal behavior and health! I am a dog trainer that does board and train sessions as well as private in home lessons, while also pursuing my degree in animal behavior and health. I do train dogs full time, but please let me know what works with your schedule and I will do my best to accommodate! I have a big fenced yard and two australian shepherds that are very friendly. I can easily crate animals if needed or separate them by rooms if your dog does not like other dogs.

About: I’ve had a dog since I was six years old. I’ve always loved dogs. I treat them like I would treat a child. I try and make sure they have everything they need to be successful. I have 2 dogs of my own and I love them to pieces I work for instacart so I can plan my schedule to work for you and your pups! I typically do some side gigs after work but can move things around to ensure the pups are getting the most love and attention possible! I have a big field right behind my apartment where the pups can go potty. My apartment is puppy proof and is safe for all dogs.

About: I've watched multiple pets, older pets, shy pets, and houses big and small and would be happy to do the same for you. Have to watch pets in their home because I don't have a place of my own at the moment. Experienced with cats, dogs, turtles, birds, goats. I pretty much devote myself full-time to your pet(s). I'll only need to go out to buy sustenance and for exercise/fresh air, which I can do with your pets. I like to meet pets first and care for them the way they are used to and according to their human's instructions. Have looked after large dogs fresh out of surgery, a blind dog (so sweet), cats who need meds, fish, dogs with severe allergies and more. I used to have a dog and cat but the dog died (she was 16) and the cat, whose age we didn't know because she was a rescue, may have died of a broken heart nine months later. Which also broke my heart. I won't get more pets until I settle down somewhere, which means your pets get my undivided attention.

About: I’ve grown up caring for all kinds of pets, including dogs, chickens, hamsters, guinea pigs, and more, so taking care of animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve also had the opportunity to care for friends’ pets and homes, which has led to recommendations from families who trust me with their dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful younger dogs to seniors who may need extra patience and attention as they lose their hearing or other senses. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs and treat them with the same care, patience, and responsibility I would give my own. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time, usually from 5 AM to 10 AM, and I occasionally work an early morning to afternoon shift. But my shifts are still only about five hours, so your pets won’t be left alone for very long. This gives me plenty of time throughout the day to hang out, play, give attention, and make sure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for your pet in your home or taking them on a walk, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being at all times. I follow your instructions and routines closely, pay attention to their behavior and needs, and make sure they receive plenty of care, attention, and exercise. Whether we’re relaxing at home or out on a walk, you can feel confident knowing your pet is being treated with patience, responsibility, and genuine care.

About: I’ve fostered 5 different dogs from the Humane Society of Utah (3 wks - 2 mo each). I was responsible for feeding, exercising, administering meds, and providing water for the dogs. I volunteered for Second Chance for Homeless Pets, where I cleaned kennels, fed animals, completed simple cleaning tasks, & bathed a dog. I completed 4 semesters of the vet tech program at Broadview University, where I learned about proper veterinary care, including administering meds, making general health assessments, walking dogs, cleaning kennels/clinic/classrooms, etc. During this time, I completed a preceptorship at Sugarhouse Veterinary Hospital, where I was able to sit in on a surgery. I worked as a vet tech at Banfield Pet Hospital for 3 months. I also worked at The City Pet Club Dog Daycare & Boarding facility and I’ve been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I have my own all natural dog treats and dog shampoo and a defurminator deshedding brush tool. I currently work from home and am very flexible for the purpose of taking care of your fur babies. I love all animals and would be privileged to watch yours. Water, food, treats, baths, walks, hiking, runs, dog park visits, dog pool visits, ball/toys, able to administer meds and address wounds, etc. I am a very good dog masseuse. Haha

About: I have always been drawn to animals, so. much so that I became a Zoology major at Weber State! I have worked in a boarding facility, shadowed veterinarian practices, and of course had my own dogs and even reptiles. I have a natural rapport with animals and get great joy from everything about them! I am currently a student at Weber State University, and have a very flexible schedule. I have only one or two classes a day and when not I am not in class I spend a lot of my time at home studying. I have a fenced in yard and a park a block away that serves as a great place to walk and play around! I have a roommate who also loves animals and is willing to help out if needed. I currently have no pets in my own home and am a hiker that would love to take your pup on some outdoor adventures!

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind and I love them all!! I have been dog sitting for 2 years now and also have my own animals that I love and take care of constantly. I also have a big back yard and lots of room in my home! I have had my own pets for my whole life so taking care of pets is my daily routine! I do work a part time job but it is early in the morning, so after that I go home and take care of my own pets. I have a fenced yard and lots of room in my home. I also have 2 dogs of my own that are small and very nice. I have many crates of all sizes if needed as well.

About: I have been watching dogs for around 6 years and have been reliable to many clients to take the best care of their animals. I usually walk the animals along with spending the night if needed and will spend long hours with the pets. I currently am a full time student at Weber so in the evenings I have a lot of free time. I don’t have any set times or days so I can work around schedules pretty easily. I have a fenced backyard and a doggy door so my dogs can roam around freely as they please. I take one of my dogs on walks and the other one I play fetch with to make sure they get exercise they need.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 10. I have experience caring for senior dogs as well as puppy care! I also have experience with training. Puppies have a special place in my heart, and I don’t think I would ever turn down watching a puppy!!! I currently work from home, so I am just hanging out with my dogs all day and taking them outside, so I thought why not have some more dogs come hangout with us! I have my own two dogs that are super sweet and friendly, and would love some more friends to play with! I take them out every 2 hours if not more and we go on walks or play in the field!

About: I have loved animals my whole life and have been pet sitting for a year now! I don’t ask for very much money as I am mostly doing this to spend time with animals (but money would be nice) I am free whenever! I am not attending college currently so I have all the time in the world! I can even pull all nighters for neonatal kittens :) I am not currently accepting pet care in my home but I promise to keep yours safe! I will keep the doors locked, clean if needed, and not answer the door to strangers!
