Dog Walkers in Shavertown, PA

About: I grew up surrounded by animals (doggies, cats, goats, turtles, birds, etc.) Since I was a little girl I always had a passion for caring for animals and treating them with love and respect. I’m currently working on getting my bachelors in social work online and almost home all the time; so I have plenty of time to care for your furry best friends. I have a fenced yard and enough space inside the house where the pets can play and have a good time away from home. I can also crate your fur baby if necessary. I have a 5 year old friendly cocker spaniel.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats over the past few years. I’m very good at following care instructions. I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have cerebral palsy so Im home the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to genuinely care for your pet. This schedule allows me to be attentive to all your pets needs. I ensure your pet feels safe and loved by providing a clean, secure environment. I follow all care instructions, maintain a pet-friendly space, and offer constant supervision.

About: I have a non-profit organization and I volunteer for the animal cause since 2015. I started to rescue animals and be in love with them in my childhood. Me and my dad used to bring dogs home every week! So working with animals is a thing that I absolutely LOVE to do! i’m currently working the entire day Monday to Friday. So I’m available to boarding on weekends, and at some evenings on weekdays, to have fun with your puppy! I will be taking care of your baby in your home. So I’ll make sure that his routine is followed, that he is feed and has water available, get his favorite toys and play a lot.

About: I have had 3 dogs since elementary school. A cocker spaniel, miniature dachshund, and currently a corgi! I would also watch and walk friend’s and family’s dogs. I currently am not working as my husband and I recently moved here. I am a nurse and have been looking for a remote job but have not found one yet. I would love to walk and care for dogs while searching for the perfect job that will suite me! Ideally I would just like to walk or come visit with your dog. I will walk them and let them sniff as they please. If they need a food or snack I can do that as well.

About: I believe pets are part of the family and should be treated that way. I have had many pets and love their companionship and have also included them in my daily routine I’m currently unemployed after 34 years with the same employer, I am dependable and experienced as evidenced by the amount of dedicated service to my former employer. I am responsible and really enjoy the outdoors and including my dog in daily activities outside We walk our German Shepherd daily and play with her in the yard. I have 2 cats as well that love to cuddle . We spoil them!

“Kim is amazing. She walked Major twice a day, half an hour each walk, regardless of rain or cold. So dedicated and saved me during my work trip when another sitter kept him isolated in a sunroom and made him so anxious. I will definitely use Kim again.”

About: I was raised around all kinds of animals, and have cared for cats, dogs, snakes, and rabbits. I love them all unconditionally and believe they should be raised to know full bellies, warm cozy nights, and endless love. I have experience working as a groomers assistant and a kennel attendant professionally for about 3 years as well, so I know how to handle special needs ranging from anxiety to aggression. I also understand what it's like to be tight on funds, and the need to budget tightly in order to properly care for your furry friends! If my Rover prices are too high for your budget, shoot me a message and I can help you stay in your range! I'm flexible, especially since all pets are different and require different amounts of work! I work for a pet care company that does grooming and daycare and boarding. My schedule is immensely flexible if I'm given enough advance as my official work schedule is made monthly. I can make it so that I have a lot of time on my hands to love your pets and give them my undivided attention they need! I always do my very best to be as gentle as possible with all pets! I tend to avoid using "alpha" proving tactics unless it is necessary for my or your pets safety (ex. scruffing, using chokers tightly, using the shock option over the buzz option on an electric collar). I see these options as only being necessary when the pet is acceptionally aggressive and may hurt myself, itself, or others. I'm also very cautious around doors as I know many pets would take the opportunity to bolt it into the street if they could. I can handle bruises and scratches well from excited pets! I'm usually always covered in them from my own fur babies.

About: I have been surrounded by dog care since age 5! I pride myself on my efficient and friendly communication, as well as my creativity when it comes to keeping your pets happy and healthy:) I am flexible and would be willing to work carefully with the owner that works best for each pet’s and pet owner’s needs! Mornings and evenings work better than mid-day generally. I would be comfortable going to the client’s home as long as they provide an in-depth visual of where each item is located to best take care of the pups!

About: Extensive experience taking care of both dogs and cats, with hundreds of volunteer hours at dog shelters (primarily Greyhound rescues)! Will give your pet all the attention it needs and ensure their schedule remains as close to home as possible! I am currently off for the summer and will be a full time grad student in the fall. Your pet will get all the attention it needs and will be taken care of as if it were my own! I have a friendly dog and two dog friendly cats (they love other dogs once they get to know them)! We have trails nearby to make daily (or more) walks a breeze! All furniture is pet friendly and cuddles are encouraged!

“Lakota took amazing care of our animals! We received lots of pictures and were well updated with notes, which was reassuring. She is trustworthy & easy to work with!”

About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs for as long as I can remember! My favorite part of the day is seeing their tail wag! I am currently working part time with a very flexible schedule! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start and end my days by making sure pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention. When at a clients home, I treat the space with respect and make sure to stick to the pets routine. I am willing to provide regular updates and pictures to make the owners feel as comfortable as possible!

About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and will take great care of ur babies like they were my own. I'm a military spouse. Im also a mother of 4 children. I have a 8 year old black female Labrador retriever who super active for her age. She loves to play but is very calm when you need her to be. I'm active and love going for walks and runs with my Labrador. I grew up with dogs in my life as far back as I remember so I'm very loving and caring for animals. My home has a large size yard but not fenced. I am a Special Ed teacher so I'll be out the home from 8am to 4pm when school is in session. But I will be home on the weekends mostly. I'll be sure to come home on my breaks since I only work 5 minutes away from my home. I have a dog who is lovely and caring and will love to play with your pup daily. Since my yard is not fenced I'll let your pup out supervisored at all times or take them to a dog park to play out doors.

About: Important Updates: Our work schedule has changed!!! If you are a repeat beloved client, and would like to discuss availability, please feel free to reach out via inbox. We are not sure yet if we will go back to being at home full-time like we used to, but feel free to ask us :). Hi, I’m MJ, and dogs have been a part of my life since I was a little girl. I've cared for a variety of breeds and even some exotic animals, including a wild rabbit and an armadillo. My husband, David, and I have a wealth of pet-sitting experience, and while living in the Lehigh Valley, we built a large clientele, earning 5-star reviews for the love and attention we gave to every pet in our care. Our hearts recently shattered when we lost Bella, our beloved 13-year-old Miniature Schnauzer, on 9/28/2024. Bella taught us more than we could ever imagine about caring for senior dogs. Through holistic methods and homemade nutrition, we extended her life and kept her healthy for 13 beautiful years. Bella needed special care, including gentle exercise, frequent bathroom breaks, a comfortable resting environment, and close monitoring of her health and behavior. We administered medications when necessary and worked hand-in-hand with her vet to ensure she had the best life possible. What sets us apart is the personal experience we gained from caring for Bella. We know how to tailor our care for senior dogs, understanding the importance of mobility support, dietary restrictions, and health conditions. We always stay in close communication with pet owners to ensure we are meeting all of your dog’s specific needs. We pride ourselves on creating a safe, hazard-free, and chemical-free environment (aside from essential cleaning products in the bathroom and kitchen). Your dog will never come near harmful chemicals in our clean, cozy apartment, where they’re free to snuggle on the couch or bed. Also, we have plenty of experience feeding according to strict dietary instructions and administering oral medication as needed. Since Bella crossed the rainbow, our hearts have been heavy, but we know the presence of other pets will help heal our sadness. We would love the opportunity to share our affection with your furry family member and care for them as if they were our own. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a senior needing extra attention, we’ll give them the same love and devotion we gave to Bella, with the hope that one day, we’ll meet her again. We wanted to share a small update about our schedule. Recently, David’s work situation has changed, and he is no longer home full-time. While I still work outside the home and we continue to coordinate our part-time jobs on different days, there may now be occasional times when neither of us is home for short periods. That said, we’re always happy to talk through any questions you may have, and we’re committed to working with you to find a solution if needed. Pet care remains an important part of our daily routine, and your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness continue to be our top priority. We truly appreciate your trust and are excited to keep welcoming your pets as part of our family. In our home, we provide a cozy, safe, and loving environment for your dog. While we don’t have a yard, we live in a quiet apartment complex with plenty of green areas for walks and outdoor play. We enjoy strolling around the peaceful neighborhood, ensuring your dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need. Rest assured, we always keep dogs on a leash to maintain their safety, and we carefully monitor their surroundings to avoid any potential hazards. Inside our home, your pet will have access to all the comforts they deserve—whether it’s relaxing on the couch or snuggling up on the bed. We take extra care to create a stress-free, hazard-free space where your dog can feel at ease. Our goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover! I started dog-sitting in high-school and it’s been my favorite job so far. I’ll also care for your kitties & home! I’m currently waiting to start my full-time career in January, so until then I have lots of free time to hang with your pups / kitties! I am very attentive to the pets I watch, and like to make sure they’re feeling safe & comfortable, even when their owners are away. Lots of happy energy!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages for over a decade. Relatives, friends and acquaintances have relied on me keep their pets safe and happy while they are away. I love animals and am passionate about giving your pet the best care possible. During the summer I am available to pet sit and dog walk anytime, my schedule is very open and flexible. A perfect fit for someone looking for a dog walker during the work day or a dog sitter while you are on vacation. When I pet sit we usually spend a lot of time playing and walking, or sometimes with senior dogs a lot of time just chilling out. I am capable of administering medication to older pups who take medication. It makes me happy to engage in activities my pets love like fetch, playing with toys, or just relaxing in each others company.
