Dog Walking Southeast Crossing

About: http://www.rover.com/sit/athens71619 Experienced with medication administration (oral, topical) Daily photo/video updates so you never wonder how they're doing In-home overnight care to keep routines consistent 20+ years caring for dogs, cats, and some exotics alike. Pet care is a steady, built-in part of my day rather than something I have to squeeze in. In the morning, I feed my cat, which also gives me a natural reason to get up and start the day with some fresh air and movement. When pet sitting dogs evenings are usually the most involved part of the routine — a longer walk or play session, feeding, and some downtime together, like brushing them or just relaxing on the couch. I also handle the weekly tasks on a set day: cleaning their bedding or litter box, washing food and water bowls thoroughly. Overall, I see pet care less as a chore and more as a rhythm that keeps me consistent and grounded — it gives structure to my day whether things are calm or hectic. When I care for pets in a client's home, I start by following the routine and instructions the owner has given me as closely as possible, since consistency helps pets feel secure even when their person is away. I stick to their regular feeding times and portions, make sure fresh water is always available, and follow any specific dietary or medication instructions exactly as written. For walks and exercise, I keep to the pet's normal schedule and pace, paying attention to their energy level and any physical limitations. Indoors, I spend time on play and companionship — not just the basic tasks — since many pets get anxious or lonely when their owner is gone, and a little extra attention goes a long way. I'm also mindful of the home itself: I make sure doors and gates are secured, clean up any messes right away, and leave the space as tidy as I found it. If I notice anything unusual — a change in appetite, behavior, or a health concern — I contact the owner right away and document it, along with photos or notes if needed. Before and after each visit, I send updates to the owner so they know their pet is safe, fed, and happy, which also gives them peace of mind while they're away.

Our dog is a newly adopted shelter pup with lots of energy, and it was clear she genuinely cared about giving her the attention, structure, and care she needs. You can tell she truly loves dogs and takes her work seriously. We really appreciated her patience, reliability, and the effort she put into helping our rambunctious boy thrive. Highly recommend!”

About: I am both a lifelong pet owner and lover. I currently have both dogs and cats in my family. I love to meet a new friend. I am patient and a good communicator. I welcome animals of all size, age, and needs. While in my care, I am reliable and will keep your pet's schedule. I am comfortable with special needs and meds, and I am really good at following directions. I want to meet your baby!! I am also comfortable and experienced with most small animals. I would love to discuss caring for your fish, reptiles, birds, rodents, or any other small exotic pets. I am lucky to have a flexible work schedule. Morning, afternoon, and evening visits all work with my schedule as long as planned in advance. I am a respectful friend to both your pet and home. My visits will always occur at the agreed time, and I will make sure things are as expected with each visit. I will request all of the information needed to care for your pet, and if any questions that pop up, I will contact you directly.

About: Hi, I'm Sam! I am an unabashed dog mom who loves animals and wants to pet them all! I had a now 12 year old boxer mix named Ellie that we had raised since she was 4 months old, and I grew up with many dogs of many breeds around all the time. I recently moved back to Colorado from Charlotte and am looking forward to meeting the animals and people who live in this beautiful city! Since I just moved back to Colorado, I am currently not working, so I have all the time in the world! And I am happy to fill that time with animals! Most comfortable watching animals at your house because I am staying with family for a while, but I am happy to board with permission from said family.

About: I have a had a dog at home ever since I can remember. I have had 4 dogs throughout my life and now have one of my own (Bebe in my profile picture). I have cared for multiple dogs for friends and family including staying overnight. I can give medicine to dogs if needed. I love dogs of all sizes and breeds! I just moved to Colorado and am currently in between jobs. This means my schedule is very open to take care of your babies! I can do mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnights if needed. My boyfriend and I have Ribsy and Bebe (a 4-year-old cat and a 3-year-old dog). They love their naps, but when the zoomies kick in, they love to play. Ribsy loves to play with his rubber lizard and string toys. Bebe loves her bones and ropes. They also both love to be lying on a blanket at all times. I clean Ribsy’s litter box daily and feed him twice a day. Bebe goes outside on a leash since we live in an apartment, gets daily walks, and we feed her whenever her bowl is empty because she is a grazer. I hope I get to give your pets the same amount of love as I give mine!

“Amber is awesome! Toby had so much fun on his walk! Toby tends top be a little shy, but not with Amber. He came right outof his shell! This girl is top notch!”

“Lenka is absolutely fantastic!! She took the time to get to know Roxy and took plenty of pictures along their walk. She’s super caring with Rox and was very patient with her as she adjusted to Lenka hanging out and walking with her.”
