Dog Walking Rockaway Beach

About: I grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats, horses, fish, cows, chickens, and a goat, having pets most of my life. My background is in healthcare while in the military. I have been my father's caregiver which allowed me to help foster puppy litters to adult dogs and care for a pack of 8 dogs-4 of which are mine while caring for him. I can now enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I am interested in always learning about animal behavior and all aspects of their care. I have been my father's caregiver but sadly he passed at the age of 94 and would enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I have an open schedule that is veryflexible. I am blessed to have my son's help caring for our dogs, allowing me to provide in-home and overnight care if needed. The number one goal is to adapt personalized routines for your pets so they are happy and healthy.

“Laura is very professional, reliable, and patient. You can really tell she really cares about your pet!”

“Kaylee was amazing with my pups! She spent a lot of time getting to know them with lots of hugs and kisses then took them on their walk. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I've worked with many breeds of dogs. Mostly small to mid-size dogs with a variety of traits. Mostly working dogs namely Blue Heelers & Huskys. I tend to live an active lifestyle and that means hiking/walking/and lots of exercise. Rest assured both me and your pooch will be getting a good workout! In the past I've facilitated overnight lodging for dogs, and temporary stays of up to a few days. Be noted I do not currently have a large open or fenced in yard. I work with neighbors and friends pets on quite a regular basis! I regularly feed, train, walk & care for pets when away or on business! I work from home so this environment provides a perfect spot for pets to be nurtured & played with consistently! I always check prior to booking any special exercise and or dietary needs of your pet. Ensuring door remain locked when inside and timer's are set for when pets receive food upon client preference. Safety is of the upmost priority, so I will discuss a full plan and schedule so you know where you pup is and his progress while away. I will send regular check in photos to provide accountability for myself and the clients well being.

“Ashley was great with out big boy Remy! We had Ashley for a week of walks while we went on a cruise since my MIL was not physically able to walk him. She was super responsive and kind and listened to our instructions for Remy. We really appreciated her attention to communication and her attitude towards our boy who is learning proper leash etiquette. It was so nice knowing he was having a good time and getting exercise and that Ashley was able to avoid his triggers on the walk to the best of her ability as well. Definitely would recommend!”

About: I’ve loved and taken care of animals since I was a kid. My family used to call me the dog whisperer because I was the family and friend pet sitter. I have some training experience from my own pets and those of my family. I am a firm believer that a pet is truly a part of the family and should be treated as such! I work from home and can house dogs during the day. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings and bringing a furry friend along sounds like such a treat! Weekend hikes are also more enjoyable with company! My dog is like my child. She gets love and affection all throughout the day and as often as I can afford. I also have a large fenced in yard that my pup loves to run in all the time. I do my best to keep my pup happy and healthy. I want her to live a long and happy life.

“5 stars! She showed up several times a day while I was gone and spent a lot of time with my dog who gets nervous when I leave, and showed him a lot of love! Looks like he really enjoyed their walks and play time! Angelina even went above and beyond to hang out with him longer than scheduled and made sure he had water and food every day, and then did one last check in after I got back from vacation. Will definitely hire her again next time! Thanks Angelina!”

About: i am extremely experience with pets of all abilities, sizes, weights, breeds, and ages. I also have experience with medication administration! I also have experience transporting pets in the car. I thoroughly enjoy long or quick walks or hanging out with the pups at your home :) I am available every day of the week! My only UNavailable times are (including my driving time): - Tuesday 11:15 - 5:15 - Wednesday 9:15 - 1:15 - Thursday 9:45 - 3:00 I spend time with your pups following instructions very carefully . I care about movement and exercise for your pup, as well as finding out their music tastes! I care for them with cuddles and scratches and personal attention. I also will play outside in the fresh air with your doggo. I never give people food to any dog and will rush to grab something off the floor if dropped to get it before they do. I make sure they have enough water in a clean bowl regularly and never have to hold their pee :) if requested, I will pick up poop out of the yard and definitely on a walk or playing at the park. Dogs are so special to us and deserve the best care!

“Thank you Gabby and Kade! Very reliable and flexible. I could tell fin was well walked when I got home from work and I appreciated it so much that they came for a meet and greet before his scheduled walks as well.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I could remember! I’ve lived on a farm and find pleasure in tending to animal needs! Pets are therapeutic and are make great buddies for outdoor activities! I’m currently working full-time and have availability in the late afternoon (after 3PM) to tend to your pets desires! I typically work mornings 7AM-3PM. I enjoy working with people and animals, and find them to truly make a difference in our outlooks in life! I unfortunately currently am unable to board animals or do day care at my home. Fortunately, I do spend a lot of time outdoors, and enjoy having a buddy along the ride! So if needed, I’d love to take your animal for a ride and to go sight/adventure seeking!

About: I have enjoyed so many years of raising and caring for domestic and farm animals. Rover has allowed me to continue my true passion. I wish to provide safe and loving care for your four footed family members, it's what I know best. In Montana I had a 10 acre Hobby Farm where I enjoyed raising sheep, goats, pigs and chickens. My horses, dogs, cats and rabbits gave me so much love. My abilities with both domestic and farm animals include feeding, medical attention, trips to the vet, proper exercise, poop patrol, cleaning of bedding/feeding containers, grooming and most of all LOVE. I would be honored to meet your care giving needs. I look forward to hearing from you to see if I am the right fit. I am currently retired. I am able to assist you for Holidays, Weekends as well as seven days a week. I am available after 10 am to 4 pm, with exceptions. I will pay attention to your animals needs as well as your requests for proper care. It is important for your animal to feel comfortable with me as caregiver.

“Katie is amazing with my dog Summit, she is great with communicating on how his walks go and always sends me photos. I would definitely recommend Katie for all of your pups needs!”

“Bristol did awesome with Spirit! She was sweet and super professional with my puppy! She sent pictures and gave awesome updates. I would definitely recommend :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 8+ years and have always had a love for animals. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, medication, or company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also very attentive to their routines and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to offer plenty of time and attention to your pet. I can work around your pet’s routine and am happy to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight care when needed. I have a safe, comfortable home with a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pet to relax and play. I have a friendly dog who is used to being around other animals, but I’m also happy to keep pets separated when needed.

About: Hi, I’m Alexis!💞☺️👋🏼 I have always loved and had a connection with all types of animals and joined Rover in the summer of 2022 to fill some of my time, I took a short break but now am back to sitting in CoeurdAlene, Idaho to fill some of my free time!☺️🐾 Before I found out I didn’t quite have the stomach for it and actually explored the career, I always wanted to be a veterinarian so I could get to work with animals! Since I couldn’t handle the messy medical parts now I love to sit + walk the fur-babies, take them to the park, and give lots of snuggles + treats!🥰 I’ve took care of pets since I was little and our animals had multiple litters of puppies and kittens as well so I’ve got to take care of little fur babies too along with the experience I’ve gained through Rover❤️ My mom and I ran a pet sitting page through Thumbtack in 2014 for a few years that was super similar to Rover and we were voted a top sitter under ItsRainingCats&Dogs<3 I love getting to feel like I’m helping a family and pet stay close while they are apart, while I’ve done pet sitting I’ve worked with elderly, blind, deaf, and other disabilities that needed help with some extra things.❤️ I like to make sure the animal always feels as comfortable as it can if staying in my home so let me know any special needs and I will always send pictures!😊 I’ve also given medications before if your animal needs to take them while being watched just as long as it’s pills or oral, I’ve never administered a shot.❤️ I have a small lab retriever mix who is full of energy when he wants to be and has never not wanted to introduce himself to the others, he is about 20 lbs and going on 8!😊🐾 He also LOVES to get out of the house and go on car rides + swimming so as long as it’s okay with you and your pet wants to, they can come on the adventures as well!🥰 I’m currently finishing some school online and work on jewelry for my Etsy shop in the daytime so I am almost always home during the week and usually just run quick errands throughout the weekends so I’ll always be back to check on the pets if I go anywhere as long as they work well being left alone, if not can make arrangements☺️ I have a large grassy field I let them use the bathroom every 1 -2 hours and always watch over them while they eat just in case anything were to happen. If you’re furbaby gives you a hard time in the bath or you’ve noticed they’ve been getting a little stinky, I don’t mind sitting in there with them and getting wet. If they get anxiety from baths I can bring treats and help them stay calm.❤️ We have some oatmeal soap for dry + sensitive skin and soft bristle brushes as well as nail clippers if you notice they need theirs done I have been clipping my dogs for a long time😊 I love to get outside myself so if your dog likes to go to the dog park or on walks we’ll be besties🥰🐾 Me and Winston go swimming often as well in the warmer months! I always will supervise feeding times or manage if pets need to eat separately, I let the babies out and pick up if the owner wants me to keep the yard clean, watch to make sure no doors or rooms that are supposed to be kept shut are left open, make sure crates/kennels are secured 100% when leaving, I always will put a leash on when going anywhere with a pet and bring water if it’s hot outside to keep the babies cooled down🫶🏼

I come to your home where pets feel safest, can continue their routine as normal and maintain a stress-free state of mind. I understand that your pet is a part of your family so I can customize my services to fit your needs (ex: transportation to/from vet/groomer etc.). I hope to provide you with peace of mind. I can stay the night at your request as well. Upon your approval; I occasionally, but rarely these days bring my 19-year-old son along just for fun who offers extra-special care and attention as he also loves animals dearly. We love to take pictures and send updates to the owner each visit. I currently work watching Children, House, and pet sitting. I have Some flexibility so please contact me for accommodations that work for us all. Never hesitate to reach out. I come to your house and can provide drop in visits or overnight care.

About: I am a veterinary assistant and have been for 5+ years. I live in Dalton Gardens and have a full acre fenced backyard so your furry friend can stretch their legs. I am also insured. I work at a veterinary clinic three 10 hour shifts during the week (Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday). I have an hour lunch break which I come home and take my dog for a walk during! I have a full fenced acre and a golden retriever that loves other dogs. I have two cameras one in the house and one in the back yard to make sure your pet is safe while I’m away. We are happy to take on your furry family members and love them like our own! ** Fence is a 4ft (welded wire)**

About: Hi, I'm Stephanie, and this is my husband Luke. We're your Critter Companions, and with us, two is always better. For overnight stays we work as a team, which means double the attention, double the playtime, and an extra set of eyes on your property. We specialize in residential pet and property care. As independent caretakers, our mission is estate-level care that gives you complete peace of mind: your pets stay comfortable in their own home, and your property is truly looked after, not just checked on. ✦ What We Specialize In We're especially comfortable with the pets and situations that need extra care and attention: ✓ Special needs and senior pets (blind, deaf, mobility-challenged, or behaviorally complex) ✓ Complex medication schedules: pills, injections, eye drops, you name it ✓ High-maintenance breeds that need extensive grooming, intense exercise, or dedicated training ✓ Extended stays, comfortably caring for your pets for weeks or even months at a time ✓ Holiday care, because I don't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's ✓ Multi-pet households, managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and needs ✓ Anxious or reactive pets, with patient, consistent care that helps nervous animals feel secure ✦ A Little About Us We were both raised around animals, but I turned that passion into my life's work. I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, the neighborhood's trusted pet sitter long before it was a profession. Thirteen years later, I've cared for everything from easy-going family dogs to high-maintenance breeds with special medical needs, for stays ranging from long weekends to month-long holidays. What clients tell me sets me apart is how I read animals. I pick up on the subtle changes in behavior, body language, and those little cues that tell you something's off before it becomes a problem. I'm not going through the motions; I love what I do, and that enthusiasm shows in how I care for your pets and your home. ✦ Your Home, Cared For I look after your home just as carefully: mail, plants, trash bins, security checks, and that lived-in presence that keeps your property safe. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can truly relax while you're away. ✦ Values You Can Trust Beyond the practical care, we believe the people you let into your home matter just as much as the work they do. We love the Lord, and our faith in Jesus shapes how we run our business and how we treat what's entrusted to us. For us that means a simple, steady lifestyle: we don't drink, smoke, party, or invite guests into your home. While you're away, your house stays exactly as it should, quiet, respected, and cared for, with nothing happening under your roof that you wouldn't welcome yourself. When you hand us your keys, you're trusting us with your home and your family. We take that seriously, and we hold ourselves to it no matter the circumstances. ✦ Let's Connect Over the years I've built lasting relationships with pets and their owners because I treat every home like my own and every pet like family. I'd be honored to earn that same trust from you. If you're looking for someone who will love and protect your pets (and home) like their own, let's connect. Pet care isn't a side hustle for me—it's my primary focus and passion. My husband and I are entrepreneurs with flexible schedules, which means we can provide the kind of attentive, present care that pets truly need. For overnight stays, we're in your home from evening through the following morning (and throughout the day if needed), so your pets are never alone for extended periods. We don't juggle multiple clients at once or rush between appointments. When we commit to caring for your pets, they have our full attention for the duration of your trip. We're available for extended stays including weekends, holidays, and even month-long commitments. Because we work as a team, your pets benefit from having two consistent caregivers who can coordinate schedules, provide extra play sessions, and ensure someone is always nearby if needed. In Your Home: I've been around animals literally since I was an infant—they've always been my comfort, my joy, and honestly, my obsession. There's something about the presence of animals that just feels like home to me, and that's exactly the energy I bring to your pets and property. As the owner of a young, energetic Miniature Australian Shepherd, I know firsthand what it takes to meet the demands of intelligent, high-energy breeds. I'm devoted to keeping my own dog mentally stimulated, physically tired, and emotionally fulfilled—and I bring that same level of commitment to every pet in my care. Your pets aren't just a job to me; they're loved and treated with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Pet Safety & Care: ✓I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, medication schedules, exercise patterns, and house rules ✓Secure all doors, windows, and gates before letting pets outside (no escape artists on my watch!) ✓Keep toxic plants, foods, and hazards out of reach ✓Monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health ✓Have your vet information and emergency contacts readily accessible ✓Never introduce your pets to unfamiliar animals or people without permission ✓Provide the mental stimulation and physical activity your pets need to stay happy and healthy Home Security & Cleanliness: ✓Maintain a "lived-in" presence with lights, blinds, and your normal routine ✓Collect mail and packages to avoid signaling an empty home ✓Take trash bins to/from curb on collection days ✓Water plants and maintain your home's appearance ✓Provide regular photo/video updates so you can see everything (and everyone) is doing great ✓I pride myself on attention to detail and cleanliness—you'll come home to a thoroughly cleaned space that exceeds expectations Trust & Respect: I treat your home with the utmost respect—no unauthorized guests ever and I leave your space cleaner than I found it. My husband and I work as a team, which means your pets get double the love and your home gets double the oversight. The best part? When you walk through that door after your trip, your pets will be more giddy than ever to see you—well-exercised, well-loved, and so happy you're home. And you can relax knowing everything was handled with care.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life, and I have my own dog named Milo. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were mine. I have plenty of time in my day to care for your pets. My job is flexible with hours and I am always able to work things around. I have a fenced backyard and plenty of dog toys, and two fur babies, so your pup/s would be able to interact as if they were home.
