Dog Walking Spring Harbor

About: I regularly walk and check in on a dog four times a week and have pet sat for several families. I’ve also helped care for my families dog over the years. I’m reliable, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I currently have a pretty high availability to care for pets — through boarding, quick walks, drop in visits, etc! I love early morning walks and exploring nature. I provide a calm, safe environment and always follow care instructions closely. Though I don’t have a fenced yard, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats — supervising pets carefully to ensure their safety and comfort at all times.

About: I treat animals as though they would be my own. I grew up around both dogs and cats so I know how to treat them very lovingly. I am usually spending time with my daughter every other weekend. I have a loving holden retriever that i would like to get outside with more at the dog park. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you and your pets and would love to help out as much as I can. I currently dont work and am doing online schooling so I have plenty of time to spend with not not only my pup but yours as well. I usually stay at home, but if I do go out to the store my pup comes with me for a car ride or we go out to the dog park.

“Tuco and I are very thankful for Riley! She is reliable, responsible and aware. She is truly in touch with animals and their nature. He isn't trusting of everyone and immediately felt calm and safe around her”

“Hillary did an amazing job walking my shy pup and quickly won her over! In addition to being amazing with my dog, Hillary did and excellent job communicating with me about how my dog did on their walks, tactics she used to help build up my dog's confidence, and Hillary even helped clean up a potted plant that my dog had knocked over one day. I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”

“Stina is extremely pleasant. She replied to my request quickly and was so easy to work with. She came for a meet and greet because my dog can be reactive at times. My dog took to her right away. It was obvious Stina had experience with animals. The next day she took her on a walk and it went great! We will definitely be using her services in the future and would highly recommend her.”

“At short notice, Abigail stepped in and gave my dog Rosie a walk when my dog walker was sick. I’m so grateful for her and will definitely work with her in the future.”

About: We have 3 cats and a mini Dachshund, all rescues. Reliable, respectful, dependable. All-around animal-person, committed to keeping animals safe and happy - I strongly believe that people have a responsibility, duty to care for and love all animals; it’s a privilege to have a relationship with them, and we should foster and nurture that. Interested in teaching basic dog commands. Will learn to administer shots if needed. Sensitive to changes in behavior that could signal unhappiness, illness. In the future, hope to create a doggy sanctuary, so I can have many dogs of my own to love and care for every day. I just love dogs & cats & all animals! Value open and clear communication with owners to better care for their pets and to build healthy relationships between us all. My availability has some flexibility, so contact me to discuss! Recently retired and looking forward to devoting time and energy doing things I love, including caring for and building bonds with furry friends. Prefer scheduling ahead of time but will do my best to accommodate same-day requests. All care will be provided according to your instructions. For daycare service provided at my home, I would take dogs out on leash at regular intervals because my yard is un-fenced. Kitties and doggies are loved and treated with kindness and respect.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and can’t imagine life without them! Over the years, my family had six dogs and two cats, so I’m very familiar with different breeds, personalities, and care routines. From daily walks and playtime to administering medications and giving lots of love, I’ve done it all. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a safe, calm, and fun environment for them! Pet care is something I truly enjoy and make time for in my daily routine. I’m used to early morning walks, feeding schedules, and making sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s quick potty breaks, play sessions, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to build my day around making sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Flexible scheduling also allows me to adapt to each pet’s unique needs and energy level. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In my home, I create a calm and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play and relax, and I make sure they get lots of attention and regular exercise. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual schedule, feeding times, walks, play, and any special instructions, to help them feel at ease while you're away. I always keep communication open with pet parents so you feel confident and updated while I’m caring for your furry friend.

“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”

About: I am 37 and have worked professionally with dogs for 10 years during my 20s. I began working in a boarding and daycare facility when I was 18. Since that time I have worked for other kennels as I have moved. I received my training certification in 2010 from Animal Behavior College and volunteered extensively at a shelter in Kansas City. I have volunteered with numerous rescue groups providing training and foster homes along with many boarding facilities. I love pet sitting and getting the opportunity to make a animals happy while their parents are away- all the rewards of being the fun aunt :) Experience with pets who have medications/diabetes/special needs. HOUSE SITTING: I work from home, with appointments throughout the day so your pets won't be left alone for long. I am flexible fitting into your pets routines, watering plants, and any other up-keeps that need done while you are away. A majority of the time I work from home while having occasional appointments out of the home. This gives me plenty of flexibility to ensure that your pet gets 1:1 time and gets outside when needed. I like to follow my clients routines so their pet can predict as much as possible. My experience has given me a little bit of the super power to predict the future, which leads to me to taking extra safety steps “just in case”

About: Hey pet owners! I am an animal lover like you, and currently have 2 cats and 2 dogs of my own! I am currently in undergrad school for Biology Pre-Med and looking forward to applying for Veterinary school in the next year!:) I also am currently working for a Veterinary hospital as a kennel assistant, where I have many hours and experience in caring and handling cats and dogs:) I am currently an undergraduate senior student. However, I do have availability throughout the weekday and weekend and can work in schedule with your pet as needed. I have been a dog and cat owner for many years! I would say I have a wide variety of experiences for the needs of a pet owner. I am good with feeding, leash walking, giving supplements/ medications, grooming/nail trims, etc.

About: I have a very high level of knowledge and skills of how to take care of cats of any age and ability and enjoy spending time with all kinds of cats. I have much less experience with and knowledge of dogs but I'm very familiar with the basics of feeding and walking. Friends have described me as a cat whisperer and I like to think of myself as such. Not that I might not have challenges, but I know how to meet and vibe and care for them. I have completely open availability for the next month or so as I am unemployed living with friends and trying to establish myself here. I typically like doing care between the late morning and early evening, but anything can be talked about and arranged. I enjoy spending the day alongside animals, being attentive to their needs by taking them out for long walks, providing healthy snacks and cuddles through the day, and offering a calm energy to relax energetic or otherwise anxious pets. I am confident in caring for pets across a range of personalities, and am happy both giving pets lots of attention and energy and coexisting with more introverted pets.
