Dog Walking Shindler

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable, and responsible dog lover who would be happy to give your pup the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’ll always take the time to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a relaxing stroll, or a longer walk to burn off some energy, I’m happy to help! I’m organized and dependable, and I make sure to set aside enough time for each pet rather than rushing through visits. I’m also happy to work with different schedules and routines, whether your dog needs a morning walk, a midday potty break, or some extra attention while you’re away. I love being able to provide pets with exercise, companionship, and care while giving their owners peace of mind. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while their family is away. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and individual needs. I’ll keep your home clean and your pet safe, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️

“Olivia had great communication and offered to help with short notice. It was so nice knowing we could leave for a long period of time and Baxter was taken care of! She took him for a walk and made sure he had fresh water after. Love all the pictures! I will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: Hey! I’m Jada, all my life i’ve always been surrounded by animals 🐶 Taking the best care of pets is something i strive each day to accomplish! I’m very familiar with dogs & cats of all ages! In 2024 I began working in the dog training industry and have come to learn many interesting skills, some of those include; how to effectively communicate with animals, properly read body language, and build a connection with any pet! Currently, i’m working part time as an accredited dog trainer at Petsmart! I’ve been at this establishment, building my credibility and skills, for 2+ years! Properly reading a pets body language is something i’ve always been good at! Making sure to always respect a pets boundaries is very important in terms of building a successful, positive, and welcoming relationship between the pet and I. As a dog trainer, i acknowledge the important of mental stimulation, and physical stimulation that all dogs require in order to live a happy and healthy life, I also understand that life can be busy! Making it hard to find those little in - between moments to give your pet that little extra loving you know they need! That’s where I step in…and lend a paw 🐾😉!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I work from home full time. This gives me the flexibility to be there for your pup throughout the day while still managing my workload responsibly. Your dog will enjoy having someone around to give them attention, playtime, and the personal care they deserve! Working from home makes pet care easy for me to fit in, since I can handle walks, feeding, and playtime during breaks while still giving the pets constant supervision without disrupting my work. I live in a house with a backyard where I can comfortably host pets and provide a safe, welcoming environment. Dogs have the freedom to enjoy the backyard throughout their stay, giving them space to play, explore, and get some fresh air. I’m also able to provide walks, potty breaks, and plenty of attention to help them feel comfortable and at home. I’m flexible and always prioritize clear communication with owners to ensure their pets receive the care they need.

I have 1 dog myself that I take for 3 miles walks everyday and we go to dog parks on the weekends to let him run around burn off energy! He loves other dogs! I am also available to do drop ins at your house or stay at your house if that makes you more at ease. I am easy to reach and very flexible!

About: I've had a love for dogs and all animals since I was very young and would love the opportunity to meet your pets and spend time with them! I'm currently working part time and can be available every day of the week and weekend, so no matter when you need help I'll be ready to assist with your furry family members! I keep pets on their normal routine, having safety come first, and sending photos/updates so you never have to wonder how things are going. For house sitting and drop-ins, I follow the instructions given closely and treat your home with like I would my own. On walks, I'm attentive to leash handling, weather, and each dog's mood. For day care, I keep a close eye on playtime so everyone's safe and having fun!

About: I have been a dog mama for 16 years and a dog rescue volunteer for 10+ years. In the dog rescue world I have fostered pups from puppies 6 weeks old up to 6-8 years old plus. It doesn’t make a difference what age they are, they will always be a puppy at heart and that is why I usually call them pups or puppies. I have fostered medical pups, I also had a pup of my own that was diabetic so I have had to administer insulin besides regular medications. I am good to administer any medications. I also transport for the rescue. I have been one of the main transporters for the last five years. The rescue I volunteer with accepts all breeds. So, I have had the pleasure of working with many breeds through fostering, transporting, meet and greets, fundraising and all the other jobs that we have with the rescue. It has been a privilege and honor to volunteer to help these pups. It is more like a passion some days. As for my own pups/pack, I currently have three medium to large pups. I have had 2 dashies or as most people call them doxies that were rescue pups and they lived great long lives to 14 and 15 years old. Plus I had an American Bulldog who loved life and lived to the age of nine (that darn cancer word.) My current pups are a boxer (age 8), shepherd/Husky mix (age 7), and as I call him a my Heinz 57 mix ( he has 5 breeds that make up his DNA - that is what the DNA test showed and he just turned 4 years old.) My shep/husky is the queen bee/leader of the pack (it is that husky in her) and the other two are sweethearts that are foodies all the way. Both my shepherd/Husky and my Heinz 57 pups are rescue pups that I fostered, adopted, and trained. My boxer was a re-homing situation due to having to downsize. One thing when you foster from your own home, all the foster pups are treated like one of your own pups/like family until they are adopted. So, if they are puppies they are potty trained to go outside, kennel trained, leash trained, and etc. Actually, we make sure all our pups that are adopted are kennel trained, leash trained for walks, potty trained to go outside and etc. as some of the pups we get come from commercial breeders. We just make sure they all know these things. One other note from me is some days I find it easier to just hang out with the pups than to try and communicate/socialize with people. What’s that saying they have “I’d rather be with my dog!” I work a full-time job but I will be able to check on your pup in the morning if needed and/or at my lunch hour and in the evening. We will work out a plan for a schedule. My employer/manager is very flexible and understanding. It will depend on which service(s) the client has selected; we will meet and work out a plan for the type of service(s) that is needed for your pup(s). Depending on if it is drop in care or dog walking, they are two very different services or both.

About: I've always had a dog in the house, usually two. I have a husky named Sylvie who I love dearly. I have plenty of dog and cat experiences including specialized care and administering medications. I have quite the flexible schedule and am happy to make myself available for you and your pup's schedule - just let me know how I can help! I have two rescues that used to keep my on my toes but are now settled and happy, so I'm here to help take care of your animals.

About: I have helped out many friends and family members with checking in and caring for their pets while being away. As a proud dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone reliable, trustworthy, caring, and professional to check in on your sweet pup. I currently work from home Monday through Friday, and have flexibility to go check in on pets during breaks. Weekends I also work part time, so I have extra time available to check in on pets! I will always ask for detailed instructions when having to enter your home. I want to always make sure to treat your pet with love and respect, and also be respectful to and in your home.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who's been around big dogs my entire life, so I'm comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. I genuinely love spending time with dogs—whether that means long walks, playtime, or giving lots of belly rubs and attention. As a nurse, I'm dependable, attentive, and always put safety first. I'll care for your pup like they're my own and make sure they have a fun, happy, and stress free experience! 🐾🤍 I’m a full time nurse but am free 4/7 days of the week! Love taking care of all dogs !! Used to random hours (early or late) so whenever needed! For everyone's safety and comfort, I provide care in your home and neighborhood rather than my own. I'm happy to come to your home for walks, drop-in visits, and plenty of playtime, so your pup can stay comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention and care they deserve. :)

About: I have experience dealing with dogs with special needs and dogs of all ages. I am also reliable, communicate well, and have a genuine love for dogs! I currently work part time so I have both time before and after work to be able to walk your dog. I have very flexible time. Whether at my place or yours, pets get lots of love and attention! I make sure they're comfy, safe, and sticking to their regular routines.

About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat, each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care. I have a job where I work Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday. All 12 hour days. So, I would be completely booked up on those days. The other days I would be incredibly happy to spend time with your little loved one! I would make sure to have clear and open conversations with you about your animals throughout the day/night. I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.

About: As an athlete, I bring endless energy for active dogs. Having cared for dogs for years for my family and friends, I’m patient, detail-oriented, and attentive to every pup’s needs. I’m currently a senior in high school and work part-time. I am looking for something fun and interesting to do on the weekends! I’m usually available any time on the weekends and some days during the week. I prioritize safety by keeping pets on secure leashes during walks and following any specific care instructions provided. I build trust through clear communication and consistent attention to your pet’s needs. In your home, I ensure a clean, comfortable environment and respect your space while giving your pet the love and care that they deserve.
