Dog Walkers in Sparkill, NY

About: My name’s Regina and I have been a dog lover since my family adopted our first dog when I was only 2 years old. She was my best friend, and ever since then, my friends and family have joked that I love dogs more than people! I walk my two dogs on a daily basis, and I know how difficult that can be when working around a busy schedule. I work remotely so I have the flexibility to accommodate you and your dog's schedule. Since I was 13 I have cared for countless dogs of neighbors, friends, and family while the owners were on vacation or even just stuck at work. I know how important my dogs are to me, so I always treat all pets with love and care. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, and would love to help out with your furry best friend! I work remotely so I have flexibility to accommodate your schedule. I'm of course available early morning and evening hours, and can also give your dog attention and exercise mid-day. If your dog is in need of extra attention, I can even work from your home for an agreed-upon rate. I will make sure you dog receives the exercise and attention they need. I will provide plenty of time for walks and/or playing outside in your yard. I always ensure dogs have food and water before leaving as well!

“I felt at ease having Caleigh walk our brand new baby, Leo. She was communicative and right on time which was important for us with an 8wk old puppy. Will be using again. Thank you!”

“Matthew was a great dog walker. He was extremely helpful and fast in his responses. He walked my dog for the full hour, which is pretty impressive because my dog is extremely high energy. I would book him again!”

“Reliable, good guy. The timing for the walks varied from day to day during the week based on scheduling and Lucas was totally on top of it. He’s now my go-to dog walker!”

About: I have had dogs of all sizes my whole life. I’m a reliable and compassionate person who truly loves animals and understands the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience in administering medication to dogs. I work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including shy or anxious pets. I am patient and attentive, and I treat every pet like family, making sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and personalized care! I am an incoming medical student who plans to live locally. I do not currently work as I am getting ready to start school in July and spend my free time as an EMT on my town's ambulance corps, volunteering at an animal shelter, or at my local food pantry. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I want to create a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I closely follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs to make sure pets stay happy and comfortable while in my care. Through my experience working with a rescue, I’ve learned how to handle pets with different personalities and energy levels with patience and care.

About: I strive to make the lives of our furry friends as fulfilling and fun as possible! I'm very comfortable taking care of any pet, and I have taken care of senior animals who require insulin shots and meticulous diets. One of my favorite electives at university was my 'Psychology of our Pets' class where we learned about how to best care for our furry friends and keep them active and healthy. I have owned dogs, cats, and even birds! Since I'm home from university for the summer, I'm pretty much available at the drop of a dime! While I would prefer a day's notice, I should be able to take care of your pet within two hours of your request. I believe that activities and fun are just as important for pets as they are for humans. Who wants to be stuck in their house all day? I know tons of dog-friendly walking trails, and I'd love to spend a few hours with them & make sure they are well-exercised. I've dealt with a lot of dietary restrictions for pets, so I can follow any directions very closely if needed. For Cats/Kittens, I have a few toys I'd be happy to bring, and even a harness if they want to explore outside for a few minutes!

About: I currently have a very lovable, chill senior dog whom I've had for 10 years, and have also had a cat before that. My friends call me a "dog whisperer" because I have a knack for training and understanding dogs. I've watched countless dogs in the past decade, and am the go-to dog sitter for all my friend's pups. I figured I may as well do this professionally, since I love it so much. I treat dogs just as humans, with their own unique needs and personalities. Whether it's more walks, dedicated playtime, or quiet time alone, I'm happy to manage the specific needs of your pet(s). I understand that not all pets want to be social or friendly. I can attend to specific needs like medication or agility/aggression training, having managed these issues with multiple dogs in the past. I have a flexible schedule, so I can give the necessary time needed to your pet, including, but not limited to lots of cuddles, treats, and of course, 3-4 walks/adventures every day. On weekends we can go on bigger adventures like city/nature hikes or brewery hangs based on the unique temperament of your pet. I live in a spacious townhouse on a quiet dead-end street with minimal car and foot traffic. I am meticulously clean and organized, and would treat your home the same way I treat mine. There is plenty of space for your pet to hang out in my house. I'm happy to cater to any specific needs too, such as medication, crating, or managing aggression with other dogs or humans.

“Eric was prompt and pleasant. He asked questions about Bridie and tried very hard to connect with her and get her to walk.”

“Alina is great. Cody enjoyed his walks and play time with her. She would spend sometime playing with him and making him feel comfortable and at ease. I would definitely recommend her 😊😊😊”

About: I am a relative newbie to dog walking (have done so volunteering with rescue dogs) but have prior pet experience with hamsters. I am gentle, punctual, detail-oriented, and have a medical background. I will treat your pet with respect, will ensure safe practices, and will accommodate playtime if desired. I am also using this opportunity to help decide on getting a pet myself. I am available mid-day, afternoons, and evenings 7 days a week. I can be available at other times if and as needed. Happy to get started asap! I believe in being gentle but firm when the pet wants to do something different than the human. For dog walking I will possibly be in the client's home during pickup and drop-off only. I am respectful of the client's wishes during those times

“I can’t recommend Helene enough! She is incredibly reliable, caring, and truly loves animals. My chunky Staffy Luna loved her the moment she met her and didn't even want to come back to me lol. She gets so excited every time she arrives, and I always feel at ease knowing Luna is in great hands. She even drives her to a trail near my house, ensuring plenty of exercise, playtime, and even sending me updates and photos. If you're looking for a responsible and loving dog walker, Helene is the best and is very accomadating!”

“Cheryl and Elmar did an extraordinary job watching my dog. They’re very conscientious and experienced and always communicate about how things are going. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs, and started walking them about 6 years ago. Now I’ve mostly worked with senior pets, usually medium sized dogs. I’m always eager to learn more about any animal in my care, and will stay in touch with daily updates. I’m almost always available, and I have plenty of time to give your pet individualized care and attention. If you need me, I’m there for your pet! I prefer to schedule a meeting to meet you and your pet before sitting for them. That way I’m familiar to them, and I can hear directly from you about any special needs, medications, habits, and things to look out for.

About: I've had two dogs growing up, and have pet sat for neighbors for the past 8 years! Don't fret, I'll take care of your pet! I'm a freshman at BU and able to fit in walks and visits between classes and work! Taking care of your pup will be a nice break from studying :) I have experience with friendly dogs and dogs that are slow to trust. I also I'll make sure your dog gets a good meal, a healthy amount of exercise, and will be kept out of trouble for the duration of your absence!

“Tere is an excellent provider. She is easy to communicate with, is prompt, and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were comfortable and extremely well-taken care of. Highly recommend.”
