Dog Walking Russell

About: My lifelong love for dogs means I've been caring for them since I was a kid. I'm experienced with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. Your dog's comfort and safety are my top priorities. Caring for pets involves daily walks for dogs, consistent feeding schedules, regular litter box cleaning, dedicated playtime, routine grooming, and vigilant health checks to ensure they remain happy and healthy. Whether in my home or a client's, I ensure pets have safe spaces, consistent routines, and plenty of attention, while closely following the owner's instructions. In a client's home, I follow their instructions for feeding, medication, exercise, and cleaning, while providing updates and ensuring their pet's comfort and safety.

About: I’ve worked hands-on with animals for over 12 years through shelters, rescue organizations, fostering, and TNR work. I’ve cared for everything from neonatal kittens to senior and special-needs animals, including medication administration and post-op recovery care. I’m calm, reliable, and experienced with animals that may be nervous, shy, energetic, or need extra patience. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. With my current work schedule, I’m available early mornings (5–6 AM) before work, again around noon, and throughout the evening. I make pets a top priority and can also provide late-evening check-ins to help pets settle in comfortably for the night. Based on your pet’s normal routine and comfort level, I can accommodate leash walks, supervised backyard time, or longer walks and exercise as needed.

“Excellent communication and lighting fast response times when using the app. Most importantly, Ava took great care of our Nala and was very respectful of our home. Will definitely rebook with Ava for the summer.”

“Great experience for my puppy learning to be left alone during the day! Faith kept our training habits going and was even conscientious about checking her water before leaving. So grateful to have someone helping our little family out!”

About: I work as dog bather at a grooming salon. I have been working there since November 1st of 2022. I am going to school to become a vet tech so I just want to work with yours dogs till I finish my schooling. I have a 1 year old dog and a 5 year old cat. I take care of them both daily and I love them both to death. I wash my dog once a week and feed and let him outside everyday. My cat kind of does her own thing but I clean the litter box every other day.

About: I grew up caring for my own pets and watching others, so pet care has always been part of my life. I’ve cared for both playful puppies and elderly dogs, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to adjust care to each dog’s needs. I treat every pet like my own and focus on comfort, safety, and trust. I work part-time as a barista and am a full-time student, but I intentionally build pet care into my routine. I’m available between classes and before or after work to care for your pets, and I can provide reliable care any day of the week. I respect your home and your pet’s routine as if they were my own. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, medications, and house rules. I make sure pets are always secure, doors and gates are checked, and their environment stays clean and calm. I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for in your home.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to independent cats. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, ensuring they get the proper attention and care they need- as long as instructions can be provided to maintain routines and medical needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing gentle care, companionship, and a safe environment. Wether it’s keeping up with a puppy, a shy cat, or providing extra comfort for an aging pet, I would be honored to be trusted with your furry family members. I currently am a full time Software Engineering student at Loyola University! Currently, most of my coursework is online other than Tuesdays and Thursdays. This limits my availability on those days for additional pet care. My flexible online schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week, ensuring they receive attention and care they deserve. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, playtimes, and check-ins, making pet care a natural and enjoyable part of my routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment for all animals in my care. My home has a large yard with fencing where I can comfortably walk one’s pet outdoors while remaining safe. I have two cats and one dog in the home, so I do carefully manage introductions and limit interactions if needed to ensure all pets are comfortable. For dogs, I can crate or pen if needed, providing them with personal space, or allow them to roam safely on a leash outside while ensuring they are well cared for inside. For cats, I prioritize an stress-free environment, providing personal space and ensuring quiet areas to retreat to. I understand feline body languages and can understand shy, playful, or independent cats to ensure their comfort.

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I know every dog is unique and needs unique care. I want to make sure your dog is treated with care and understanding while you're away! I have experience giving oral medications (both pills and liquids). I currently have an open schedule for summer! Whether you need a dog walk or multiple visits for feedings while you're away, I've got you covered! I want to build a trusting relationship with you and you're pets. For home visits, I will take time to ensure your pet is eating and drinking well, make sure litter boxes and crates are clean, and each pet knows I'm there to make them feel safe and loved. Is you're pet a little shy? No worries! I'll give their privacy after making sure everything is taken care of.

The dogs love her she treats them with such tender loving care… I had hesitated to do this and now I think it’s the best decision I’ve made regarding the dogs in a long time — I need the help.
