Dog Walking Rockland

About: Dog care shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg! Whether you’re going on vacation or need some help after surgery, I’m more than happy to do anything and everything in between to help you and your pup(s) during your time of need! I work Mondays and Tuesdays 11p-7a so I can check in on pets late at night or early in the morning! Wednesday through Sunday I *only* do Rover, so I can focus on helping pet parents. I make sure to ask clarifying questions during meet and greets, then follow them to the T during visits in the future. Chores are done first if needed (cleaning litter box, letting out pups, food/water, etc) which I try to keep to under 10 minutes in order to give the majority of my time to the pet and spending time with them.

About: I've grown up with German Shepard's being bred in my home, have been surrounded and trusted all of my life with pet care from a very young age by friends and family. Have my own dog now, Nahla, who is very loved & well behaved. Depending on the temperament of your dog we can introduce, or your dog and I can have a solo adventure if that's what they'd prefer too! I'm currently available any day of the week, during any daytime hours, and for multiple hour excursions. My work schedule (for the time being) is very flexible, so I am able to create my own hours. I am currently only taking dogs on hikes/ long walks at the moment, no overnight stays. But you can always expect your dog to be taken care of like I would my own when we are in our adventures. My dog is my baby, therefore my #1 responsibility, and you're dog will be treated the same. 💙 You can always expect hikes to: 1. Be close in proximity to emergency vet centers. 2. Always include an emergency first aid kit, including blood stop, and dog safe benadryl incase your pet were to suffer from an allergic reaction to a bee sting or anything else. 3. Have water, food, and treats on stand by. I ask that you provide food, however I will provide treats, unless directed otherwise. Treats are always consciously chosen, the ones I have right now are real duck & turkey treats that are 100% grain free, no fillers, no synthetic colors, or artificial flavors. We can discuss portions that you allow. 4. Have whatever needs your dog might have be 100% into consideration- wether that be pace, different terrain for different agility levels, or medical conditions that limit them. I want your dog coming back feeling satisfied, tired and also proud of themselves. But not overworked or ever in pain / worse condition from when they left. Some dogs can go for miles, Some just for a while- and that's okay! We will also go over the charachter of your dog, and interactions they prefer/ to avoid. If they like kids, socialization, other dogs, ect. If your dog doesn't enjoy socialization then I will find a more secluded trail so it's not over stimulated. My dog prefers old male dogs that are super relaxed and play mildly, so I also understand that finding friends for our pets is sometimes situational and I want to try to find the right fit for your pet so they feel happy and secure in the experience each time. 5. All the love & attention I can wrap up into the length of our hike!

“Kate was fantastic and very professional - definitely understands dogs super well and great walker”

About: * Ask about my day rates Thank you for being here! My name’s Amanda, 31 years old, passionate & professional pet care provider born and raised right here in Maine. Caring for animals is one of life’s greatest joys, so I do it full-time! I have a 3 year old 20 lbs mixed breed pup named Wally. He loves making new friends, zooming, adventuring, and just hanging out, and comes with me whenever possible. He is neutered and fully vaccinated. I am attentive, communicative, and responsible. You’ll never wonder if your pets are in good hands as long as they’re with me. My experience includes pets with anxiety, high energy puppies, senior care, and administering oral medication. I've been told I have a nurturing spirit animals are drawn to. They’re such important parts of our family units, and understanding and appreciating them comes naturally to me. It is my top priority to keep them safe, and to be an excellent source of stability, comfort, and love while you're away. I’ll send plenty of updates, pictures, and videos to ensure your peace of mind as well. Please reach out with questions and requests. Thank you for reading and talk soon! Amanda & Wally Schedule: My schedule of commitments outside the home are generally flexible. I aim to structure my time away based on the pets' needs / routine. Safety, trust, & environment: I provide private pet care in the family's home. I am highly attentive and in tune with wants and needs. I provide customized-care based on individual needs so aim to adjust to their routine, activity levels, etc.

“I want to give a shout out to Marisol, who has now come several times to walk our dog and provide support if we are away during the day. She is always a great communicator, responsible and caring, and I have total confidence that our dog is in great hands when she comes.”

About: We are the people you are looking for to help, care, and watch over your pet family. Joe and Erin at your service. Let us know how we can help your pets when you aren't around. We love all animals big and small. We are very capable, and have experience with many breeds and sizes, including experience with poultry and livestock. We look forward to meeting you and your fur family! We follow a weekly pet care work schedule to make sure your pets are taken care of based on our agreed commitment. We prioritize the schedule, and operate on a first come, first serve basis. At an initial meet and greet, we come prepared with questions. We use a written questionnaire covering your pet’s routine, personality, health, and quirks, along with home access, expectations, and emergency plans. We want to understand your pet holistically, so they get the seamless care and love they need. We then use this as our guide when they are in our care. We carry professional pet care liability insurance covering pet sitting, dog walking, and house sitting. That includes animal bailee (pet protection) coverage, which goes beyond what a standard liability policy usually covers. It’s there to protect you and your pet if the unexpected happens while they’re in our care. Our policy also includes veterinary reimbursement, so if your pet needs urgent care during a visit, we can get them to the vet right away. We’re covered for lost keys too, so your home access is protected. Proof of insurance is available on request. We’ll keep you in the loop with updates that fit your schedule, and we’ll always treat your home and your pet with the care we’d want for our own.
