Dog Walking Spectrum

“i could not be happier with greta's care for my pup. not only did i reach out to her last minute, to which she responded so graciously, she was so kind, warm, conscientious, and communicative. i received a steady stream of photos, videos, and updates while i was away, she left notes when necessary, and even made sure to check that i arrived home safely in time for my pet's next walk. i wasn't able to meet greta in advance (my fault, not hers!) but she took my instructions in stride and did such a wonderful job. i will 1000% request her services the next time i travel, and i highly recommend her skills to anyone who needs a caretaker for their pet.”

About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs for years and adopted my own puppy 3 years ago! I've learned a lot about dog training the past few years, including loose leash walking, clicker training, working on reactivity, recall training, and getting through the puppy and teenage phase! I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and balanced training and can help keep up any training you have been working on with your dog while I take care of them! I'm familiar with various collars - regular, prong, slip, gentle leaders, and harnesses. I'm currently taking a work hiatus from being a pharmacist! So I have flexible scheduling during the day & evenings to help take care of your pup! I'm typically at the ceramics studio on Fridays, but if you let me know 2 weeks in advance of the Friday you need me, I can make arrangements. I am here to help your pets feel as safe and happy as they can while you're away. Just let me know their normal routine (no matter how detailed) and I'm happy to keep it the same for them! I can help administer medications if needed, and can put together multi-step meals with toppers as well!

About: I understand family pets are your world, my family dogs Darla and Pandora are everything and I’m glad to meet your family too! I will give them the best care possible always. I would love to be more active while playing with animals! I’m currently self employed with a flexible schedule so I can drop in whenever! I can easily drop in and walk your beloved animals, just like I care for my own. I’m looking for local pets to give lots of love too!

“KK has always done a great job taking care of my french bulldog. She has been accommodating to his needs. I know my dog will be in good hands when I book a dog walk with KK.”

About: I have experience fostering for rescues and am used to taking care of dogs of all backgrounds. I am happy to do drop-ins / walks as I love to get my steps in and keep your furry friends company! I have a 3 year old beagle mix named Butter who gets along well with other dogs. I work from home and would love to watch your dog and have your dog keep my dog company if you are interested in boarding or day care. I work from home and am very flexible with my schedule! My dog and I typically go out for at least three walks a day. I have a small fenced in yard and single family home. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and safe. I have a lot of experience caring for my friends’ pets as well as my own.

“Great experience! Kristina was very caring , gentle with my dog and always on time. Highly recommend!”

“Summer was amazing! Summer, walked my dog for an hour each day over the course of a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention provided. Summer was communicative, and treated my dog with genuine kindness. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos—great peace of mind while I was on vacation. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

“Pauline responded to my dog walking inquiry and to all messages quickly. She proactively offered to reach out to Rover when my initial care instructions weren’t visible on my dog’s profile. She came on time, walked my dog for a full 30 minutes, gave her some treats, wiped the paws as requested, and locked the door. Her description of the walk was thorough. The only improvement would have been to leave on one of the down stair lights after leaving as requested in the care instructions.”

About: I grew up in a house of Akitas and a Shih Tzu — four pounds of opinion and eighty pounds of stubborn under one roof. I’m also the friend people hand the leash to: the Frenchie who overheats, the Corgi with short legs and long ambitions, the Husky and the Aussie who need a walk that actually burns something. Twenty years around dogs has taught me the ones people call “difficult” are usually just misunderstood. I know how to read the buildup before a reaction and create space instead of yanking. I’m comfortable with medication schedules too — that’s just part of a routine. Your dog gets someone who’s calm when things get loud, and you get honest updates about how it actually went. tl;dr Paws what you’re doing —and hire me :) Dogs are already part of my daily routine, so adding yours doesn’t mean rearranging anything. I work full-time but my schedule is flexible, which puts me right where most owners need someone — early mornings before the day starts, and midday, when your dog has been alone for hours and is doing that thing by the door. Those are my hours, they’re consistent, and I’m not squeezing you into a gap and hoping it holds. Book me for a regular slot and it becomes part of the rhythm for both of us. Same time, same reliability, every week. I work in your home only, and I leave it exactly as I found it. Walks follow the routine you’ve already set — your gear, your rules, your route, and I want to hear about triggers up front if your dog is reactive. Drop-ins mean potty, fresh water, food or meds on schedule, and real time on the floor with them. Every visit ends with locks checked and a message telling you honestly how it went, photo included.

“Mengmeng read dog walking/feeding instructions carefully and paid attention to details. She showed up on time every time. I would highly recommend her.”

Depending on extent of need I may be able to do weekends as well. I do have a full time remote job as well.

About: I cared for my two Chihuahuas for over 17 years, from when they were babies to their senior years. In 2022, we said goodbye and sent them to Rainbow Bridge. Since then, I have been a dog sitter for my friends, caring for their babies with the same love and dedication, while prioritizing safety and careful supervision at all times. I also completed a Veterinary Assistant program, which helps me better understand senior care and medication support. To ensure a calm and comfortable environment, I only care for one dog at a time unless they are from the same household. I stay home full time and try to minimize alone time as much as possible. I understand that being away from family can feel stressful for some dogs, and I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I stay with dogs overnight so they don't feel alone. I also provide regular updates with photos and videos so you can feel reassured while you are away. We live in a house with a patio in a quiet neighborhood. I take them for walks around the neighborhood several times a day and always make sure they are wearing secure leashes. Our home environment is calm and structured to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. My husband and two teenage sons also love dogs and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful with them.

“Cie did a great job with our dogs! We received a lot of great updates and clear communication, letting us know our pets were taken care of during their walk. We even got a ton of cute pictures and videos. Thank you, Cie for taking care of our dogs!”

About: I love spending time with animals and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.
