Dog Walking in Richmond

About: I have had dogs, cats and other pets for my entire life. I've also spent years volunteering and working with animal rescue societies and shelters. Most importantly I just love pets. I am a full time student, mostly from home. I am home focusing on pet care for the majority of every day. Making sure each pet gets the attention and care they need is my primary focus every day. I have a very walkable neighborhood and plenty of time for as many walks are needed throughout the day. My dog Clover and cat Penny are both very friendly with other animals and also both spayed.

About: I grew up owning and taking care of many different animals. I always wanted to work with animals in some capacity, so that led me to Purdue University, where I graduated with a BS degree in Business Management and an AS degree in Veterinary Technology. I now work remotely for Purdue as an academic advisor for the Veterinary Technology Distance Learning program! I love animals and am very attentive and knowledgeable. I can administer medications, trim nails, etc. I will give your pets the best care possible! I work remotely (from home or anywhere) and have a flexible schedule for the most part. I can work with you to fit your pets’ needs. I have a big yard, my own crates, bowls, leashes, and toys. I take walks daily and will gladly take your dog for walks and take them out as often as needed.

About: I love animals, dogs especially! My dogs are part of our family and my home is theirs as much as it is mine, to include having them warm, cozy, and comfortable (furniture and beds). They get plenty of TLC and safe living conditions. I am completely comfortable with giving medications and treatments. I have a clean home and can provide them with toys and lots of activities including playtime with my dogs. We are always up for a car ride or neighborhood walk weather permitting. Always a lap to lay in, hands free to rub a belly or scratch an ear, or just a cheek ready to be slobbered on with a wet kiss. I LOVE furbabies! I only work part time so I am home alot, they aren’t left alone very often. I live in a great neighborhood for taking walks. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own with a large fenced in backyard. I also have a large crate to use if needed.

About: I have raised and trained a few dogs from puppy's through the end of life. I promise I will take good care of your dog as if it were my own. I am recently retired so I do have some time to spend with your pet. I could come to your home and let them out and spend some time playing. Before I leave I'll make sure your dog has food and water and pick up any waste. I held my last job for thirty six years and handled quite a lot of money so I am trustworthy. I rarely get sick so I am always available. If need be I could watch your dog at my house and I do have a fenced in yard.

“Ashley is an amazing person! She does a wonderful job with my 2 dogs and is very dependable. I know my dogs will have their walk and they love her. She is very communicative and accommodating as well. Always letting us know of any delays or upcoming changes in schedule. We really appreciate her and are glad she is our dog walker.”

About: I'm just honest. There's no bullshit here, just a guy who likes dogs and wants a job working with em. I've applied at HELP the Animals, as well. We'll see if they accept my application. I take my brother to school every morning before 8, any time after that, call me/text me and we can work out a time you need your dog taken out/played with/watched while you're not there. I do it all, except for taking them to my house, as it is not pet-friendly. I would like detailed instructions, including hour-by-hour time charts if possible. If you have your dog on a medicine, please notify me and we can set a dosing schedule that fits their needs. Baths and whatnot are fun, so don't be afraid to ask me to give them one. If there are any allergies, such as various types of insects or clothing your dog reacts negatively to, let me know as well and I can accommodate.

About: Dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my own pups! I provide walks, playtime, and plenty of love, and I’m great at keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. Every pet in my care gets the attention and affection they deserve—because I treat them like part of my family. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine around my full-time work schedule. I’m available for evening walks during the week and have daytime availability on Wednesdays and Sundays for walks or drop-in visits. This allows me to give each pet my full attention without overbooking or rushing between visits. I plan my schedule to ensure I can provide safe, reliable, and consistent care every time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help reduce stress and keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and administering oral medications if needed. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention during each visit. For walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes or harnesses and monitoring each pet’s behavior and comfort level. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care so your pet feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.

I also offer morning drop-ins, lunch visits, and evening check-ins. I live in an apartment with my boyfriend, who works full-time evening shifts, and none of my pets are with me at this time. There won’t much much traffic going in and out. If you’re interested in having your pet stay with me, please inform me in advance so I can discuss the details with my landlord.

About: I grew up with dogs, and I used to have two cats. I have over 3 years of experience using Rover and multiple 5-star reviews. I have taken care of pets who need medication or have special needs. I am open to dog walking and pet sitting. I do not have any pets of my own to take care of daily. I drop in on one dog three days a week and walk another dog twice a week. I will follow all guidelines provided by the client. Respecting all rules in their home and ensuring that their pets will be in good hands.

About: I will care for your pet as if it were part of my family: with love, patience, and lots of attention. Open schedule 15+ years experience I have a flexible schedule in the mornings and evenings before 6 PM, so I have enough time to spend quality time with your pet. I currently live in an apartment and know how to manage pet anxiety in a small space, but I've also lived in a house with a park and know the importance of spending energy outdoors for our furry friends.

About: I've had a lifelong love of animals — caring for them was a responsibility I embraced from childhood and carried into adulthood. Over the years, I've dedicated time to researching training methods and best practices for working with dogs of varying breeds and temperaments. My hands-on experience includes Great Danes, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Goldendoodles, and Labrador Retrievers, giving me a well-rounded foundation for understanding different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I am currently a full-time student, so I have the flexibility to make sure your pets are walked and checked on through the day. I can also be available for overnights in your home or will consider boarding here on a case-by-case basis. I firmly believe that regular exercise is one of the greatest gifts you can give a dog — both for their physical health and their overall disposition. Ensuring every pup gets the activity they need for a calm, content evening is always my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, attentive, and caring environment.

About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was kid. To me they are like family and should be treated with love. I have 3 of my own that I've had since they were puppies. I'm currently working part time so I'm using my extra time to help others with their fur babies. I'm home most of the time so I can give them extra attention. My back yard is fenced in. I have dog crates available if they need it. Tons of toys and treats too. Clean and bug free home.

About: I have taken care of and been around animals for as long as I can remember. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of, feed, and play with their pets. I have been on rover since the beginning of June 2025 and have had many successful stays with multiple clients and their wonderful pets! I always put the animals needs before my own and make sure the animal is comfortable and content at all times! I am currently a full time student. I go to school in Richmond Indiana. My longest day at school is on Tuesday and I am there for about 6 hours. On Wednesdays I am at school for about 5 hours. On Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays I am at school for about 2 hours. I will devote the majority of my time to your pets aside from having to leave them to go to school for a few hours during the day. When I get back from school, I will make sure your pets are well taken care of and feel loved by playing and getting their energy out or by cuddling if that’s what they prefer:) I will care for your pet in your home with any and all instructions you give me. I will be willing to clean up any messes that are made. I will feed, bathe, and cuddle your pets! I will make sure they have enough water and always take them outside for potty breaks!

About: I’ve lived with pets my whole like from big dogs to very small cats/kittens. I’ve had my fair share of experience with animals. I have a dog of my own. I have a lot of free time and have been wanting to try something new and with my love of animals I thought dog walking would fun. I have a very friendly Pitbull I keep him on a food schedule and make sure the food has the proper vitamins and health benefits. He gets routine bath nail trim and vet checks

About: I've worked in a boarding facility, cleaning up after dogs and cats, warming up to them if they're nervous, playing with them, and of course giving them lots of pets!❤️❤️ I'm free to take care of your pet full time! I'm also a doordash driver so I fit that into whatever time I'm not scheduled to play with your pets! I'm very adaptable. I can work in an apartment, or a home, I believe the best pet care starts with the setting. If your dog or cat is taken care of in your house they'll be much more comfortable, since they're used to the environment
