Dog Walking Rockdale

About: I am a student with lots of flexibility in my schedule, and I love dogs, especially big dogs because I can match their adventurous energy. I have 5 years of experience walking and caring for neighbors and friends pets. My dog, Denali, is 13 years old and loves to go on walks and smell around every mailbox and flower! I have cared for him as he has grown from being young and active to now struggling to walk too far, so I have experience with all stages of life. I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am able to offer dog walking and stop by care anytime most days. I can also offer overnight care most nights. I am available to book for dog walking, stop by care, and overnight care! I am allergic to cats (unfortunately) so please no cats for overnight stays.

About: I volunteered at animal shelters throughout high school and college and have had my own dogs throughout my life. I also have formal education in behavior modification so I know a thing or two about training animals. I’m currently mom to a 3-year old Shiba Inu named Shuri and we work hard on her skills every day. I’d love to meet your fur baby. Let’s chat and see if I’m a good fit for you and your furry one! I’m a full-time gig worker, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pet. I typically don’t pet sit on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but we can discuss exceptions if you need to! I don’t care for pets in my home currently as I live in a home with two dogs who are just getting to know each other, but I will take care to follow any instructions you provide for caring for your pet in your home. I have over 20 years of childcare, pet care, and other care and responsibility experiences. Tell me what you’d like to happen and I’ll be happy to discuss it with you!

“Kennedy was amazing with our 2 chihuhua-mixes! She went above and beyond with her communication and care. Will definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to walk/care for our 2 pups.”

About: I have grown up surrounded by dogs, from chihuahuas in my childhood to living with big dogs while I was in college. I have always enjoyed spending time with animals and have 10+ years experience with dog and house sitting in my neighborhood. Now that I live alone in Midtown, I am available to help with pet care! Unfortunately I am extremely allergic to kitty friends so only available for dog booking! I live in west midtown atlanta and work from home M-F! Enjoy spending time with dogs and having them around to play and relax with! I love to go on runs or hikes with dogs. I love spending time outside and I know just how much the doggies do also!

About: I have cared for my 3 month old puppy for 4 years. I have also cared for my older dog previously having to administer medications and other treatments. I work fully remote full time. I have my own car to travel as far as needed. I work out early in the morning the rest of the time. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment that has a dog park. I am home during the day for walks, treats and love. The second bedroom has space for a crate if needed.

“Shanon is a kind woman and we had such peace with her being in our home and taking care of Pebbles. She even brought our mail in and made sure Pebbles had plenty of water. I will definitely call on Shannon in the future. Thank you!”

“Alana is not only an amazing dog walker (my dog is obsessed with her!). But she’s also an amazing human. I often foster dogs, and many of them can be very nervous and require specific instructions or often times, just have to figure it out as we go. But Alana is always willing to help out and test and learn on what works and what doesn’t for our fosters. She follows instructions well and is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure our fosters feel comfortable with her. It can be often chaotic with a new foster and a new routine, but she handles it with calmness and grace and I wouldn’t be able to foster dogs if it wasn’t for her! Thank you Alana for your help not only with my own dog, but helping the community as well by taking care of my foster dogs!!!”

“Natalia loves dogs! I could tell since the first day she met Elvis. She has been very responsible with Elvis Walking schedule, always on time, very communicative and very respectful when inside our house. I can tell Elvis loves his walks with her. Thank you so much Natalia for all your help with Elvis!”

“Laura is amazing! She started walking our dog during the peak of summer, through the heat and all the crazy afternoon storms. Our dog absolutely refuses to go outside when it’s raining, but Laura was incredibly patient with her and so flexible with us as we figured things out. After a few attempts and adjusting the timing of the walks, they found a great routine. Our dog is always so excited to see Laura, which says everything. We’re so grateful for the care, patience, and reliability she brings, and for making sure our pup gets the exercise she needs. We couldn’t recommend Laura more highly!”

“Alexis is amazing!! Helped me out last minute when I had to work all weekend. Great communication and my dog was so happy.”

“Aliah was such a great sitter for my puppy. She was on time, super friendly and went on nice long walks. I will use her for every vacation I take. Thank you again for such great service.”

“I highly recommend Josh as a dog walker on Rover! He did an amazing job with my dog Stormii. Josh was incredibly attentive and caring towards Stormii, ensuring she got plenty of exercise and attention. What really stood out was his excellent communication skills Josh always kept me updated with detailed reports and photos after each walk, which gave me peace of mind knowing Stormii was in good hands. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog walker, Josh is definitely the one to choose!”

Jadelyn S.

“Amanda is great! She is reliable and always stays in contact and communicates during her visits. She takes videos and pictures each visit. She even helps with extra tasks like bringing packages inside. Thanks for caring for our pup!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have a deep love for both dogs and cats. I’ve owned four dogs over the years and currently have three rescue pups of my own—including one foster “fail” (lesson learned: don’t foster puppies 😊). I’ve taken basic dog training classes and have worked with trainers over the years, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels, and behaviors. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like they’re my own—with patience, care, and lots of love. I have volunteered at animal shelters and have fostered many dogs over the years. I've learned a lot about dog behavior through that experience. I have given cats and dogs oral medication and have administered insulin shots to dogs. I require at least a week notice for all NEW client boarding and doggy daycare requests to allow for a meet and greet. **during the fall semester (Aug 24-Dec 13), I am on campus for 8 hours on Tuesday and Thursday. Those days dogs get a 15 min break midday while I am away from my dog sitter. I work from home most of the time. I am usually not away from home for more than 4 hours. During the fall semester, I am away on T/R for about 8 hours a day. I have a large fenced yard and 3 dogs at home. Two of my dogs are seniors and one is almost 3 years old with lots of playful energy. I also have a large finished attic space that I use for doggy play, especially when it's super hot/cold outside.

“Hope was so good with my baby, Leviathan! She was also very flexible to add another day of dog walking when my flight got delayed. I’ll definitely be booking her in the future.”

“Excellent dog walker! Easy to work with, great communication, and great with my dog!”

About: I’ve cared for pets for many of my friends and family over the years, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll also be adopting a dog soon, so caring for your pet is a great opportunity for me to continue gaining hands-on experience while providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I work from home Mondays and Fridays and I’m off weekends so I have four days to watch pets uninterrupted but I am flexible to do weekdays if folks don’t mind the dog roaming the house while I’m out I have a yard and live in a large gated community so I can walk dogs with no issue and I live across the street from west side park so they have plenty of space to roam.

“Jamal is the best. He was so patient with my pup at the beginning (she’s a rescue and can be skiddish). My dog now loves her walks with him. Would highly recommend him!”

About: I have taken care of animals for many years, and love spending time with them! I recognize that every pet has their own personality, needs, and schedules, and I am comfortable meeting them where they’re at. Whether that’s lots of playtime and long walks or more subtle play time and a quieter environment, I don't mind adapting! I would be more than happy to take them to the dog park, on walks, or play at home, and I will dedicate my time to making them feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I am currently home full time and am available for drop-ins or house check-ins as needed! I am also pretty flexible and am happy to work with your scheduling needs. I base my care on you and your pet’s usual routine including schedules, preferred walk spots, etc. I like to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible by not disrupting what is familiar to them.
