Dog Walking Richardson

About: Hi! I’m Kristen. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud Labradoodle mom to my girl, Ecko. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. I work from home as a recruiter, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I provide care exclusively in your home, where your pets are most comfortable and can stick to their normal routine. Services I Offer: * 🐶 Dog Walking * 🏡 House Sitting (Overnights in Your Home) * Drop-In Visits * 🐱 Cat Care * Medication Administration * Feeding & Fresh Water * Exercise & Playtime * Potty Breaks & Litter Box Cleaning * Light Grooming (Brushing, Paw Wipes, etc.) * Photo & Video Updates * Care for Other Pets (Just Ask!) I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and have experience with cats, puppies, senior pets, and pets that need medication or a little extra patience. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable. Whether you’re heading out for the day or taking a longer trip, my goal is for you to have complete peace of mind. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, and I’ll make sure your pets get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to hearing from you! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home as a recruiter, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate time throughout the day to caring for pets. Whether it’s a midday walk, drop-in visit, feeding, medication administration, or simply spending quality time with a pet, I can easily accommodate visits during the day, evenings, and many weekends. As a proud Labradoodle mom of 8 years, caring for animals has been part of my everyday life for a long time. Spending time with pets is genuinely something I enjoy, and I love being able to use my flexible schedule to help local pet owners while giving their pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I also know how important communication is when you’re away from your pet. During visits, I provide plenty of updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how your furry family member is doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection and attention. I understand that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I always respect my clients’ homes, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can have peace of mind. Safety is my top priority, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, needs, and preferences. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to accommodate what makes them happiest. 🐾

About: Hello future friend! I have house and pet sat professionally for clients on two well-known websites for 5 years. I’ve done the same via personal referrals for friends & family members for 30+ years. I am very experienced. I loooove all animals & will care for, snuggle, and dote on them like the precious beings they are. I am especially good with anxious and/or emotionally insecure pets. I have experience administering medication as well. I am very quiet, neat, and clean. I'm happily single at age 56, stable, healthy, and very responsible. My schedule is flexible for walks, errands, chores, playing, and outside time. Sending much care to you as you consider your travel and housesitting plans. Best, Melissa My schedule is fairly open for pet care, petsitting, and housesitting related duties. Just let me know what you need. I’m flexible and will work with you! If I come to you, I will follow your routines, schedules, and instructions to the letter. If possible, I prefer to meet and greet with you beforehand to experience you and your fur babies in person. That way, you can introduce me to your home and routine together. I’ve had great pet care and housesitting experiences where meeting beforehand wasn’t possible as well. I like animals to be where they want to be, including the furniture, beds, etc… depending on their personal preferences.

About: Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and more—I treat every pet like family. I have a small dog of my own (Brio, 11 years!) and understand how important it is to trust who’s caring for your furry companion. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and value timely communication, providing high quality care and your trust in me. Some of my offerings include at least 3 walks and check-ins daily, (depending on the need) and daily boarding and doggy day, in a safe,clean, pet-friendly home. I also like to keep the pups clean after every walk by wiping them down fully, including their paws, with fragrance free pet wipes. I generally follow a consistent schedule where I keep your furry babies well-fed, active throughout the day via walks or indoor/outdoor play time and comfortable. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions or to see if I'm a good fit for your pet—I’d love to meet them! I offer daily boarding and doggy day-care in a safe, clean, pet friendly home and multiple walks/ check-ins a day as needed. I typically follow a consistent schedule providing meals 3x a day, or as needed, followed by a walk and lots of play time throughout the day. I also like to keep your pups clean throughout the day by wiping them down fully, including their paws, after every walk. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. My dog, Brio, is friendly with other dogs and can keep your furry baby some company. My home is fully equipped with beds, a crate, food bowls, toys, and a playpen if needed. Pets are welcome on the couch, and we love giving plenty of cuddles and playtime to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: I have accumulated a multitude of pet care experiences throughout my life with the pets of my friends, extended family, neighbors, and my own. I have cared for senior dogs and cats that require extra attention and care, as well as young dogs that have boundless energy and a vast need for play and exploration. I love animals, and I hope to treat yours with all the attention, care, and love they deserve! Currently, my schedule is extremely flexible. I do not have any job commitments at the moment, so if your pet needs a little extra care, I have time for them! Pets deserve a great amount of time and attention, and my flexible schedule allows for me to give them the time and attention they need. I operate with reliability and responsibility that ensures that I will follow through on bookings and specific care that your pet may require.

About: I have loved caring for animals since the moment my family took us to get a dog and two cats at the age of 10. I have watched animals in the neighborhood growing up and into adulthood for friends, family and Neighboor's. I have owned one dog on my own into adulthood but she is no longer with me. I love watching and meeting new animals and I’m a snuggler and attention giver! I work remotely so I can watch your kiddos at my apartment which has 3 dog parks or I can watch from the comfort of your home or walk at either space! I can go on long walks at my place, go to the dog areas at my complex or come to your home at your pets comfortable level! I am 3 weeks remote out of the month and have plenty of time to give your pet attention, going on walks and playtime. Cuddles included! Pets are free to roam my apartment and sleep in my bed! If crate training I can definitely accommodate your routine to make your per most comfortable

“Alexandra is the best. Dexter was super nervous but she helped him get comfortable super fast and was doing everything at his pace. Dexter loved his walk with her. Everyone around her location with a dog NEEDS to book her; your dogs will love her 💯”

“Thank you Kristy for your consistency in taking care of Sammy! It’s so important to feel secure when you’re far away from your pup & you offered that. I hope you will continue to work with us if in the future dog walking services are needed. Thank you again!”

“Jill arrived just a few minutes early so she could start Dash's walk right on time. Our tail wagged welcomed her at the door and really enjoyed his walk. This was the first time Jill B. walked out dog and we will definitely use her services again! Thanks Jill!”

About: I have been successful pet owners for over 12 years. I am a mature adult and will keep my appointments. I love dogs and I love providing pet care services for families in our community. I am a stay at home mom. I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your puppy and walk them multiple times per day. Our neighborhood is very safe to walk in. I have a fenced in yard plus a very friendly mini schnauzer and one daughters. We walk Bella multiple times per day. Plus, we feed her on a consistent schedule. Right now, due to my schedule I can provide early evening care beginning at 4 pm and am available for evening care. Also, I work in the school and am available during holidays and my summer schedule is very flexible. I feed our dogs twice daily on a set schedule. Also, they recieve 3-4 walks daily. Our dogs are members of our family. I love our pets very much.

About: I love all pets and have had two dogs of my own. My first was a terrier mix and my current is a staffie, so I am well accustomed to larger dogs. Additionally, I have been trusted in multiple instances to take care of other people’s pets ranging from bully breeds to pugs. I would love the opportunity to make sure your pet is well taken care of and loved when you need it! Throughout my life I’ve been surrounded by various types of dogs, ranging from chihuahuas to pits, big energy to small, and puppy to senior! This has given me the knowledge and experience to provide adequate care for your pup no matter where they are in their life or how special their personality is! My favorite part about dogs is how expressive they are! They love showing love and really are a great best friend! Currently, I am a teacher and am on summer break, so my availability is very open. I care for your pets as if they are my own! I prioritize meeting their needs and wants, and making your fur baby feel safe and loved. I follow their food, medication, and potty break routines closely! I will send check-in photos and texts during my visits. I am very reliable when it comes to the safety and well-being of your pet. They will always be fed and/or walked on time, or whatever else they may need. I have a large dog and she can play a little roughly sometimes, so that isn’t a problem if yours is the same. I can guarantee that they will feel loved and cared for under my supervision.

About: I’ve been professionally dog/house sitting and walking dogs for the past 3 years! I’ve cared for many breeds, from pugs to catahoulas, and for cats as well. I really love animals (and they love me), so their happiness and health is of the utmost importance to me. I do work but when I am watching a pet they are a priority to me. I use my breaks to let out/check on the animals and am sure to give them the attention and love they need. I will walk or let out your dog frequently - I always want them to feel comfortable. My reliability is how I’ve been able to turn dog-sitting into a side job. I have many previous clients who trust me completely and can provide those references.

About: I can take special care of any animals, providing gentle support to ensure their comfort and well-being. Whether it’s basic training, playtime, or administering medication, I can tailor my services to meet your dog’s unique requirements. My focus is on creating a stress-free, enjoyable experience for your furry friend while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and can plan my day around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m dependable about following each pet’s usual schedule and making sure they receive plenty of attention and care while their owner is away. Since I don't offer boarding, I provide in-home dog sitting and walking services tailored to your pet's needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I ensure they follow their regular routine to maintain familiarity. I offer regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, whether it’s cuddling, training, or simply keeping them company. If your pet needs medication or special care, I’m happy to accommodate that too. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well taken care of while you're away.
