Dog Walking Somerset

About: "UNAVAILABLE for dog-sitting requests after August 26* I've taken care of one type of animal or another since I was young. I've assisted in fostering animals days old to ones on their last legs of life. From young to old, big to small, I love them all! I am currently training to be an EMT, but it is a self-paced program so I can care for your pet whenever is convenient for you and can alter my schedule to fit yours without issue. In my clients' homes I make sure to have fun with their pets while maintaining any mess and ensuring that I leave the spaces how I found them. From walks and trips to the dog park, to staying inside and chilling with less energetic dogs, I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember whether it was my family dog when I was little or pet sitting/ walking for my family, friends, and neighbors. I am good at being aware of my surroundings and keeping up with different levels of activity for each pet. Pet care is perfect for me because I will be out of school all summer and I will be free all day almost every day of the week!! I am a safe walker as I am aware of my environment, always bring extra water for me and the pups, and I am good at redirecting pets when they try to get into something they shouldn’t or try to go somewhere dangerous such as into traffic etc.

About: I have a passion for dogs and I enjoy spending time with dogs and taking the time to train them. I am dog walking various types of dogs and focused on leash pulling, reactivity, recall and basic commands. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I work every other weekend in the morning and afternoon and I work a few nights. I have a young dog at home I often take him on walks and play ball with him. I also have a 13 years old English Golden Retriever. I still take her on small walks. I regularly walk two Great Danes 2-3 times a week. I working on leash reactivity and pulling.

“Candi has been such a blessing to our family. She communicates before and after each walk, sends multiple pictures, and is very kind and reliable. She was open to helping train our 1yr old rescue dog and provides much feedback regarding their progress. We are comfortable with Candi driving our dog to the local walking trail since our neighborhood doesn't have sidewalks. Candi is an asset to Rover and I know our pup agrees.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and truly love having them around. I do tend to spoil them, but I always follow the instructions you, the parent, provide. I have had senior dogs and puppies and always give them the extra care they need. We are a retired couple and always enjoy having a dog around us. We have plenty of time to play with pups, and give them lots of love. We have a fenced in backyard to play in, comfortable beds to sleep in. We won’t be taken in other family's dogs while yours is here.

“Dan was great, my dogs loved there walks, Dan tired them out. I always say trust your dog, so when mine liked him so much I felt comfortable and secure about having him walk my dogs. I highly recommend him to anyone.”

About: I’ve had 3 dogs my entire life. Pitbull, Shih Tzu and a chihuahua. Currently the financial responsibility of a pet is too great but I love their companionship. I’m kind, patient and loving. I’m working remotely currently, so I’ll be home all day every day and will be able to pet sit. I’m looking for temporary situations at this time with the possibility of something long term to help out for your vacations! I have a large non fenced in yard. And live in a luxury, pet friendly condo with a dog park. I have 2 boys who also love pets who would absolutely love to cuddle and give attention if your baby decides it’s ok!

“Sheridyn was so helpful with a last minute request when our regular walker couldn't make it. She was able to flex with our plans and sent lots of pictures and notes. Will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been around pets since childhood - having 2 cats, hamsters, birds and fish. I am a dog mom to a 15 year old beagle and 12 year old pittie mix both of who I adopted when they were 3 years and the other 9 months old. I walked and was also a house visitor for neighbors dogs all throughout middle school. Wherever I was there was a high possibility I was hanging out with someone’s dog. I work a Monday to Friday position but would love to spend my off hours from the office position doing house check ins and or walks for your pets. I would be able to do house check ins for bathroom breaks-feeding-loving attention-playtime as well as bringing them on walks. I am able to handle big or small & high or low energy pets.

“Been meaning to write this review for awhile. Highly recommend Sarah. She was very professional, dependable, and easy to communicate with! She was always there when she said she would be, and our puppy really loved his walks with her. ❤️”

About: I've provided administration of medicine to cats as well as given fluids thru an IV and feedings thru a feeding tube. Would love to check on your pets or walk your dog! I'm working from home and am looking for part time jobs during the week or weekend. Would love to help out as needed whether it be vacations or one time visits. I will be providing service within your home and will not be boarding animals. I have a cat and she doesn't welcome other pets! I look forward to being available for your needs!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities my entire life, and working with animals truly feels second nature to me. For the past five years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for pets professionally, and I currently work part-time at a doggy daycare where I’m trusted with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and insulin, and I’m CPR certified for dogs so your pet safety is always a top priority. I stay calm, attentive, and prepared in any situation. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet who needs extra patience and gentle care, I always treat every animal like they’re my own. I only work part-time so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m able to structure my schedule around walks playtime, feedings, and any special care that they may need. Because I’m not gone long hours pets aren’t left them alone for extended periods, and I can provide consistent companionship and supervision. When caring for your baby in your home I do my best to keep the routine as normal inconsistent as possible, and follow all feeding schedules, walk, routines, medication, instructions, and household guidelines, exactly as provided. I make sure that your pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting their comfort levels.

“My dog got a cut on her ear walking in the woods, and Brittanie responded perfectly. She reached out to me, we discussed what to do, and she waited for my sister to arrive. Turned out to be very minor, but I was so grateful she was extra cautious and communicative. I feel really comfortable with her caring for my Millie.”

About: I have cared for animals from a young age, volunteered at shelters, from family to neighbor's. I've had pets all my life, dogs, cats, ferrets, fish...I love all animals, big or small. Recently moved to Mass looking for extra income that’s enjoyable. Pet care fits perfectly due to my open schedule. I will dedicate time whenever needed. I'm currently an owner of a high maintenance French Bulldog, and understand the needs of attention, love and work a pet requires. I also have access to large open areas for playtime with your pets.

“My Finn loved his walks with Sam! She sent report cards and pics for that provided me comfort knowing he was happy and tended to. Will use Sam as often as I possibly can. 😁”
