Dog Walking Saginaw

About: *NEW CLIENTS* If you have sent a message/request on Sunday, I will respond to you on Monday. Thank you! Hello! I’m Lexi, and I would love to help care for your furry friend! I have had pets my entire life and know how important it is for them to continue receiving lots of love, attention, and exercise in our absence.  Whether you're looking for dog walking services while you're at work or drop-in visits when you're out of town, I'm happy to help! I want to know that my pets are cared for and loved while I'm away, and I want to provide you with that same assurance and peace of mind. I also know how important it is that dogs receive daily exercise, but know only too well that life can get busy, so I'm happy to come and play or walk with your dog!  I do not currently offer overnight stays, but if your pet can go all night without someone present, I'm happy to create a custom schedule of drop-ins based on their needs. I'm also happy to do some household tasks, such as watering plants and washing litter boxes, at an additional cost. Note: I'm happy to collect mail at no additional cost. If you are looking for someone to love on your pet in your absence, please reach out and let me know how I can help!    *BEFORE BOOKING* ~ I require a meet & greet before accepting a booking and therefore do not accept bookings with less than 3 days' notice, except in certain situations. ~My current service radius is 3 miles (or up to 10 minutes from my house) for multiple drop-ins and 6 miles for dog walking (or 1x day drop-in visits). I'm happy to book outside of my service radius, but please note that these bookings will be subject to a $1 per extra mile fee. ~ If you are booking walks, dog/s must be leash-trained (no excessive pulling, leash biting, etc.). ~ Up to 3 cats are included in my cat care rate. There is a $5 per cat charge for more than three cats. I currently work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible. When submitting a service request, please send a message letting me know what you need, and I'll let you know whether I can accommodate. :) I am very conscientious when it comes to a pet's safety. When your furry friend and I are together, you can rest assured that I will do my utmost to keep them safe and properly cared for. I am also happy to send photo updates if requested.

“A plus. Very happy dog! Lots of pictures too.”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets throughout my life, from small animals like rats to large dogs. I’ve spent years pet sitting for family and friends, and growing up, our home was always full of animals. We currently have one dog, Baggins, a Great Pyrenees and the sweetest gentle giant. He loves having a companion to play with, and since we lost our older dog last year, I can tell he truly misses that friendship. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, I’d love to help! Skills & Expectations: • Comfortable with all types and sizes of pets • Experience with walking, feeding, and playtime • Attentive, reliable, and caring • I treat every pet as if they were my own • Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priority Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to see if I’m a good fit for you and your furry friend! ✨ I’m currently between jobs, so I have full availability and plenty of time to focus on your pet’s needs. I’m flexible and able to provide care, playtime, and walks whenever needed! Just let me know what you’re looking for, and I’ll be there! I have a fenced in back yard and a big playful dog ready for friends! I also have the space to keep any dogs separated if needed. If it’s care provided in your home I will respect your space and make sure your animal has all its needs taken care of.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life! From jumping spiders to 150 pound dogs. I am studying in college right now to become a veterinarian. I have always wanted to work and care for animals, I also volunteer at many shelters nearby and used to foster! So if you need anyone to walk, feed, pet, or even just to drop in and check on your pets I can do that! I am currently working at a restaurant part time so I have plenty of time on my days off to play with your pets! I have three dogs of my own and one cat so I know that pet care is a daily need. In your home I can follow any instructions you need from times your pet needs to be woken up, fed, play, walks, given medicine, and even time set aside for training! For both cats and dogs I have trained both of my pets! Or if your pet is create trained, I can make sure all of your house rules stay that for your pet!

About: I’ve owned and cared for animals since I was a child. I’ve had cats, dogs, a rabbit, turtle, and even ducks! Recently, I’ve done drop-in visits for my mom’s elderly dogs. I’d swing by and leash them to take them outside for a 5-10 minute walk and then administer medications and feed them dinner before leaving them situated the way my mom preferred. Taking good care of our animals is something I take pride in including feeding them, administering medicines, playing and loving on them, as well as letting them out to the bathroom or cleaning litter boxes. Pets can be messy but that’s not something I’m afraid of! I am currently homeschooling my three kids. So, my schedule is pretty flexible to stop by throughout the day. I can do morning, early afternoon and most evenings if needed. I don’t work a full time job so I have plenty of availability. I’d like to set up an initial meeting with the client so the animals can get to know me, as well as show me their routine. I will enter the home, being careful to close the door behind me and let the dog out to potty in the back, play for a 5-10 minutes, and let them back in the house. I can also take the dog for a walk if that’s preferred. Before leaving, I can check their water situation (feed if requested) and situate them to their owners preference. Upon leaving, I will ensure that all doors are locked behind me.

About: *** Available every Saturday & Sunday and during the week early morning or after 3pm *** I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and always loved dogs. I treat mine and my friend’s dog like family and spoil them as much as possible. I do have experience with other people’s dog as I watched friends and family dogs when they go out of town. I have experience with high energy dogs as I have one myself so I can give as much exercise as needed. I work during the week 7a-3p. Available most weekends. I can come early morning or later in the night to work around your schedule. I live at home with 2 dogs. They are both very friendly love to play. We have a decent size backyard that is big enough to run around.

About: I've had personal dogs for the last 10 years. I also volunteer at the animal shelter by walking dogs, playing with them in the play yard, providing enrichment, building confidence and giving lots of love and pets . I also started to foster from the shelter a year and a half ago and find it extremely rewarding. I am available all day on weekends and weekdays after 5pm to help with walks or drop ins. I work on a school schedule and am also available on holidays. Your dog(s) will get lots of pets and love with me. I am patient and will take my time if your fur baby needs a little time to open up. I will provide a loving environment for all your animals! My experience with my own dogs as well as fosters and at the animal shelter has helped me understand what animals need and want.

About: I've taken care of my own two dogs since I was 8 years old. I have experience in basic training for young pets as well as senior care for older pets. Since then, I have been entrusted to care for friends' and families' pets for over 10 years! I'm currently working part-time with open availability, so I will have all the time for your lovely pets. I am available for all your pet needs with my open schedule! I will be respectful to your home and your pet by following your pet's routine, keep their space clean, and provide regular updates for your peace of mind.

“Katherine is fantastic! I reached out to her last minute hoping she could walk my corgi and Aussie the following day while I was at work. She was able to accommodate both of their walking styles and sent pictures and updates throughout the walk. She has a great personality and is an outstanding communicator. I will most definitely use her again.”

About: I have worked in a well renowned and amazing shelter & animal rescue (no kill shelter) for 5 years. I’ve got plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also got certifications in fear free animal training, along with helping train many dogs for Leader dogs for the blind. I’m recently moved to the area, and currently working part time. So I have a lot of extra free time, my time is very flexible. I consider animals family, so taking care of them properly how their family ask is very important in my eyes. So taking care of them will be followed directly as stated. 😊

“Destiny is amazing! Prompt with replies, punctual, flexible! She has been a lifesaver and carpet saver for my dog a few times now, always on relatively short notice! And I know my dog loves hanging out with Destiny.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and bearded dragons since I was 13 years old for my family, Neighbors and others in my apartment complex. I handled feeding the animals, walking, playing with them, and basic care routine. I also have two of my own cats. I’m comfortable with different pets of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. My pet care fits well into my routine. I work at an elementary school Monday through Friday until 4:00 PM, so I am available on weekdays starting at 4:30 PM for walks, drop ins, or sitting. I am fully available on weekends with flexible hours. During the summer and school holiday breaks, my availability is limited, as I follow the school schedule. I currently provide pet care in my clients’ homes to ensure pets stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, as I live in an apartment and have two cats who do best without other animals in the space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress free while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible

“Emily was a life-saver. I had to leave town rather quickly for 5 days and have two dogs. She was willing to take them 3 times a day for the 5 days and kept them fed and treated! She sent me picture updates and texted to let me know they were doing well, which I greatly appreciated. I could tell when I got back that, while they missed me, they had fun while I was gone. ”

About: I am a bunny mom of a little guy named Max. My bun is my whole life, and I will treat and care for your pets just as I'd hope somebody would care for mine. I would love to cuddle your pups or help them run around and get all their energy out so that they are relaxed while you are away. I recently unfortunately had to put my great dane down, but having plenty of experience with big dogs myself, I am very comfortable walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, or any that may be reactive or aggressive. I will gladly update you, with pictures during every visit. Message me if you have any questions. Thank you! I work in a school district, so I usually have full availability during breaks and on weekends. Other than that I am usually available after 3pm. I am very gentle and loving with all pets. My bunny gets absolutely spoiled in my own home, and I plan to treat your pets the exact same way I'd want mine to be treated while following the provided instructions.

About: I am a major animal lover, I often think I enjoy pets over humans at times . I will love your pet like my own. I enjoy going to different parks so your pet will have a fun time going on a walk. During boarding your pet will be treated like my own, if your fur baby has anxiety not a problem they will not be alone I allow dogs on my sofa and bed so if need be they will not sleep alone. Not potty trained ?? Not a problem, I am patient as know it is a process to everything so trust you puppy will be on the schedule we discuss as to not set them back while in my care . ! ! I love animals and always give them the care , exercise and love they need and deserve and I treat my dog as my child I walk him daily, and open fields to run . I stay away from dog parks but if your baby wants to go then I will take them. I have a fenced back yard and one French Bulldog that is my spoiled baby. He has his own room and space where he can go to sleep and play if he doesn’t not want to be bothered . I will treat your pet like my own .

“So thankful . Wish I could add more days”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from helping my parents dog sit all breeds and growing up to raising my own cats and dogs. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal care and individual needs. I’m reliable, organized, and intentional with my time. I genuinely care for your pets and will make sure you feel that way too! I’m home for the summer, so I will be available to care for your pets all the time! I plan on going beyond the feeding time and the potty time to ensure your pet feels safe and loved. I love to spend time with animals making them feel loved, and making sure they are safe. Let me know what your pets love to do and I will make sure to do that!
