Dog Walkers in Richford, NY

“Colleen is excellent. She took great care of my puppy. She noticed a sore/ hotspot and arranged for us to get in to see her vet the same day and even volunteered to take him if my schedule didn’t allow.”

About: I carry poop bags & treats on me at all times. I have common vet meds memorized. I own plastic syringes. I have carriers in my car. I’m on a group text list for emergency wildlife rescue. I spend my off hours volunteering at a shelter for cats that also spays/neuters dogs. lol, hi, I’m Eli. I will care for your pet with so much patience, empathy, care, space (if needed), cuddles (if they are asking for it), or whatever is appropriate. Animals can do no wrong out of evil or malice in MOH eyes, they just need guidance and love and help! My biggest flaw as a sitter is that I tend to over communicate as a baseline — usually out of confirming their health / safety first — but I can discern what is an emergency and send summarized updates (i.e. by night or by weekend if housesitting longterm, for example.) So feel FREE to set a boundary; you can’t hurt my feelings. Just let me know how to reach you (message or call) & for what. My husband care for our cats if I need to house-sit, otherwise, this is my full-time gig lately and I absolutely love it! It’s my calling. 🥰 I leave a place better than I found it; I am highly polite and respectful and would never disrespect a client’s home; I treat it like I’m a guest on my best behavior of course!

“Great job with a shy dog. Got her to walk and play. Thank you, excellent job!”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Many different kinds, including dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, etc. I will treat your pet with love and kindness. I have a job where I make my own schedule. If you decide to board your pet with me, I will be on premises at all times. For boarding, I have a decent size fenced in back yard. I do have a 7 year old husky that has gone to daycare. He's been around a lot of different dogs. If your dog needs to be crated, I can do that as well. I am available to come feed your animal in your home. I can let them out and walk them if needed.

About: I have lived with and cared for dogs of every kind since I can remember. Friends and family rely on me to care for their dogs, whether this be feeding them, walking them, or even just check ins I am currently attending school full time so I turned to Rover which allows me to work part time and work on my free time I can do check ins, overnight care, or even date night care! I currently do not own any dogs but as an active young and personable person, I will make sure your dogs are well taken care of

About: I am not in a hurry to leave your pet alone. I am taking care of your animal because I love this job. So I will do the job as well as I can, because I love being given the opportunity to be around your pets. I currently dedicate nearly all of my free time to the care of pets. I love that this service exists because it fills up my spirit I’m a very conscientious person who understands the need to keep all dangerous products and liquids out of reach of any pet. My home has plenty of space and I have a runout in my backyard

About: ATTENTION CLIENTS AND PET PARENTS: I am currently enlisted in the US Navy and will be shipping to basic training October 1st 2025. My services will not be available starting October 1st. Thank you to my wonderful clients, I will miss taking care of the furry friends! ❤️❤️ I've grown up with animals all my life, and love taking care of them. I have had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, hermit crabs, fish, frogs and even a pet spider! It's my dream to work with animals, and I am currently going to school part-time so I can eventually do just that! I take time every day to make sure my cat's needs are met, including: food, water, affection, positive stimuli, litter box cleaning, medicine, and bathing when necessary. My cat is my whole world and I express the same dedication to pets I take care of. I make sure daily tasks are done and check in on the pet as much as necessary: such as giving food/water, walks, grooming and TLC. I treat client's pets as if they are my own.

About: Hi, I'm Chris. I work in the gig economy and have taken care of a few dogs and cats in town and am looking for more clients. I can water plants, feed fishes and check the mail. I like to draw and can draw your pet if you want too. I have enjoyed taking care of pets when I travel far away and would be happy to look after your pets here or wherever. I have one client in town and one out of town. I work a flexible schedule so can accommodate both of them and many more. I would like to do less driving work and work more with rover, as it just wears the car out. I also sell drawings sometimes when inspired. At this time, I'm not currently having pets stay at my house. Maybe in the future I will host animals. I don't have the right space yet.

About: I’ve taken care of and loved my own animals growing up, I have my own dog and two cats who I love dearly and work at the local Humane Society where I take care of 50+ dogs and cats on a daily basis!! I’m very experienced with behavior, giving medicine, you name it! I’m currently working full time, 4 10hr days so my availabilities are sunday- tuesday for dog walking. Sunday-Saturday for check ins! I’m hoping with time I can expand my hours and offer more availability! My dog Arrow loves all and any animals, I can bring him with me to play your pets and keep them comfortable and happy! Working at the shelter I’m very diligent at monitoring the animals and will make sure your pet is kept safe, and if I have any concerns I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out.

About: I have been lucky enough to spend time with dogs of a range of ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need a slower pace and a gentle touch. I’m comfortable with a wide range of needs, just let me know! I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious dogs, and I always move at their pace. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language, so I can respond quickly if something seem off. But most importantly, I make sure that they're safe and happy, while waiting for their favorite person to come back to them. Caring for the fluffy angels is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. My schedule is flexible and I can work from home, which means I can dedicate quality time to walks, play, feeding, and companionship without rushing. Whether I'm welcoming pets into my home or caring for them in their own space, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I live in a quiet apartment surrounded by forest and green space, with very little car traffic in the neighborhood, which is perfect for peaceful walks and outdoor sniff time. At my place, I maintain a clean and cozy space with plenty of room for your doggie or kitty to lounge, play, or nap. In your home, I'll respect the privacy and cleaness of your space. I will follow your care instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication schedules and favorite toys, because I know how important familiarity and consistency is to their happiness.
