Dog Walking Riverside

“Carrie was absolutely wonderful! She was very patient with my lap mix who tends to be more timid and I worry about. I can’t thank her enough for the patience and will definitely be using her when I’m away!”

About: For the past four years, I’ve been actively involved in running a busy in-home dog boarding and daycare business through Rover. While my former partner handled most of the client communication and scheduling, I was heavily involved in the day-to-day care of the dogs and was responsible for making sure they were safe, happy, exercised, and well cared for throughout their stay. I regularly cared for multiple dogs at a time, including dogs staying with us 24/7. My responsibilities included taking dogs outside every 1–2 hours, supervising playtime and group interactions, providing exercise and enrichment, cleaning up after them, and paying close attention to their individual personalities and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve learned a great deal about dog behavior and how to safely manage different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. I became comfortable introducing dogs to one another, supervising group play, recognizing when dogs needed space or a break, and making sure every dog was comfortable in the environment. I also handled a large part of the cleaning and daily upkeep, including deep-cleaning the dog areas, washing food and water bowls, maintaining a clean environment, and making sure the dogs always had a safe and comfortable place to stay. One of my favorite parts of caring for dogs is making sure they have a great experience while their owners are away. I love playing with them, giving them attention, taking them outside, and getting great pictures and updates for their owners so they can see how much fun their dog is having. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and after four years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a busy boarding and daycare environment, I’m excited to continue doing what I love and provide that same level of care to Rover clients and their pets. This is what I do and have done for a living for the last 4 years, prior to this I was working with my former partner under her rover account, plenty of play time for your pups! I can handle any dog of any temperament or behavioral issues that may require additional safety precautions. I go outside with the dogs in my care ever 1-2 hours, whether it be a group play session or 1 on 1 play. I tailor to every dogs needs.

About: I've assisted in taking care of my parent's dogs for years, from a grumpy old man dog to a chaotic 6 week old puppy, whether that be playing, making food, going for walks, and cleaning up accidents. I also have experience with provided medicine as needed. I am very flexible with timing as long as I know a week prior, but if it's short notice, I am mainly available in the mornings up until noon. I make sure to play, regularly let them go to the bathroom outdoors, feed them at appropriate times and if they want their space then I respect them.

About: I was raised in a home of 11 cats for most of my childhood. I've learned to love all animals in the course of my years. Now, anytime I see an animal in distress I want to help it. I am truly passionate about animals and their well-being. I love the idea of providing love and care for pets when people are busy or away. I've helped many past friends take care of their dogs and they've taught me a lot. I have been wanting to become a pet watcher and pet walker ever since the beginning of 2023. Until now I didn't realize there was a platform for this. I am truly excited to start helping the pet community. I always ask questions and make sure that the little furry ones get all the love and attention they possibly can. I will pet, feed, and take care of your animals like they belong to me.

“Tyler is a great dog walker! He is very patient, communicative, reliable and awesome with larger breeds! I have an American Bully and he takes time to play with her and lets her sniff around on their walks. Really grateful for his weekly drop ins and walks with my pup! Tyler and Cashmere, have become great walking buddies. 10/10!!”

About: Recently left my quality management role at Amazon and now pursuing a career in what feeds my spirit - animals. My pets have changed my life for the better, I believe everyone should have the ability to experience what I have! Since I was in kindergarten I have had a unique connection with animals, and starting this new chapter in my life is terrifying yet amazing. So if you decide to book with me or only will you be supporting local (so thank you), but you will feel completely at peace knowing your pet is not just another checkbox on my list…. But a new friend I am happy to have made. I exercise my pets everyday and ensure they are training consistently. I currently have a flexible schedule so we can work on your needs and scheduling. My home is puppy proof, along with a gate I use to separate the upstairs from downstairs so my cat can have some peace and quiet lol

“Jennifer did great job, thank you!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life and truly love being around them. I’m experienced with different pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m reliable, patient and will treat your pet as if it were my own. Ps. I also work night shift so I am okay with late night drop ins and etc! Flexible schedule with plenty of time for visits, feeding, and play. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can adjust times to fit your cat’s routine and needs. I’m attentive and gentle, always prioritizing safety and comfort. I respect your home and your pet’s routine, keeping everything consistent, clean, and stress-free while you’re away.

“So great with my dog Very reliable”

About: I grew up working at a dog kennel and have always owned dogs. Some of my best friends are trained professionals and I've learned a lot from them. I can do walks, playtimes and certain medications. I can do over nights just not at my house for the time being. I only work Saturday and Sunday but am Still available early Sundays and later after 9 as well as late (after 12am) on Saturday. My days are pretty open during normal pet care hours and outside of them. Dogs love me, and I understand dog body language. My dog was over 100 lbs and I can handle him just fine. I love dog play times and don't mind running with them to get energy out. I just love dogs and making money. Message me with any questions or concerns.

About: I have had countless animals growing up, so I know how to care for many kinds. I come from a huge animal-loving family and love being with all kinds of animals. No trained experience, all through having pets and knowing animals. I will have a very flexible schedule for the majority of summer. I can typically provide pet care at any time of the day on any day. I would completely follow any instruction you give for caring for your pet. I wouldn't bring other pets around, and I would give all of my attention to your pets. I would play, pet, brush, walk, let outside, etc. whatever's needed!

“Otter LOVES his walks with Olesja and her husband Tomas. Now that the weather is getting nicer they are doing some jogging too. He and we are very lucky to have the best dog sitters ever!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I currently have 1 dog in my home. Got my first dog at 6. I walk or drop in visit my sisters dog, used to dog sit for family friends when they are out of state. Help take care of my partner’s elderly dog by letting her out mid day, cleaning up her incontinence and vet visits. I work full time but only 3 days a week. I am looking to drop in/ walk on some of my days off. I am an early bird looking for morning to after noon services. I will follow pet parent instruction to provide the care that the dog deserves and expects. Making sure doors are closed until on lead and keeping dog on lead until inside the house after the visit. If fenced in backyard is available, just having a good ole run around to release some built up energy if a walk is not requested

About: I’ve had mang different dogs since I was little, taking care of them and taking them out often! I’ve also taken care of family members cats along with dogs too. I Absolutely love taking care of dogs and cats of all breeds and I have no issues with size. I’m currently working part-time! So on my off days I’ll have plenty of time to come and see your pets and take care of them! I’ll be able to spend plenty of time with your pets on my off days! And even after work! I live in a standard apartment but I do live near a large park! Giving your animals room to play and be themselves. I will always make sure they have my undivided attention! I also enjoy playing with them and helping them feel safe and cared for. During the week, I help with tasks such as grooming, cleaning litter boxes or pet areas, taking dogs on walks, and checking that pets are active and healthy. Caring for pets has helped me become more responsible, patient, and organized with my time.
