Dog Walking in Stuart, Kalamazoo, MI

“Great walk! Erin was on time and took great care of both dogs while I was out of town for the day. I appreciated the pictures and map of their dog walk route! Thanks, Erin!!”

“An absolute wonderful person to watch after your pet! She was so loving toward Charlie and he had an absolutely blast with her while I was out of town. Big thanks to Theresa!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life, and thrive off loving on dogs of all kinds! Additionally, I volunteer at an animal shelter near my college to walk and bathe dogs. I am currently off of work, meaning I am free all day everyday on weekdays for the time being! I would love to fill my time by providing love and exercise to your pets! I will keep a close leash on your pet during walks, while allowing them to explore and enjoy themselves. If you would like me to utilize your fence, dog's favorite toys/treats, or crate I am more than happy to do so!

“My pup is on the timid side with new people. He warmed up to Hunter immediately. Highly recommended.”

About: Hi! My name is Adaora, I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, and have taken care of my family’s now senior dog most of his life, so I’m well versed in all stages of dog life at this point. Currently I have one 2 year old dog who I raised from 3 months old (who is very high energy, so there will be plenty of walks and exercise while your pup is here.) I also have experience training dogs, so if you need some additional help with basic commands and dog walking, I’d be happy to assist! I am a student full time during the week, but have availability and a lot of energy throughout the weekends from sitting in class all day, which is where your dog comes in! I love spending my time with my dog and others dogs, and I spend as much time as I can outdoors in my backyard gardening or going on walks and hikes which is always more fun accompanied by a furry friend! I have a fenced in yard and 1 other doggo who has plenty of energy and toys laying around the house to help entertain your pup. A typical daycare day will usually look like hanging out outside for a bit, play time with me, snack time, at some point I’ll separate the doggos so they can all rest, then we’ll go for a walk and maybe snuggle up inside for a bit. If everyone is particularly energetic we’ll go back outside and play again. My goal here is to give your dog a fun, stress free place to be while you are at work or away for the day/weekend, because that’s always what I want for my dog when I’m gone.

“Daniel is a sweet animal lover who takes excellent care of both his own pets and those of his clients. He's very patient and understanding with animals, and it's obvious they can sense he is a true friend. I have no worries leaving my beloved animals with Daniel, as I know they are always in good, loving hands. Daniel is very responsible and trustworthy, and I always know my babies will be treated wonderfully under his watch!”

About: I completed the Dog Walking Academy in November 2018, provided by TipTopTails Training in Kalamazoo. Also completed Pet Tech CPR, First Aid and Care in November 2018. Having recently retired from WMU, I am looking forward to spending time with your dog(s) or cat(s) and earning some extra income. I have been a dog owner all of my life, my husband and I currently have one American Staffordshire Terrier rescue named Mazzie who is three years old. I am available to come to your home to visit with and care for your pets, I am not able to house your animals at my home during the day or overnight. Eventually, these services may also be available. I have experience with dogs who need daily medications (insulin, seizure meds) or those with chronic issues. I am available to care for your pet(s) in your home while you are away for the day or on vacation. I am retired from WMU and have fairly open days and evenings. I am not able to do overnights at this time. I have had many dogs and right now we have adopted a new rescue dog, a Staffordshire terrier who is about 3 years old. For that reason, I do not bring your animals to my home, I come to you.

“Dear Kenzie, Thanks for taking care of Drax. Really stubborn with new people, but he was very fond of you! Also thanks for being so flexible with my schedule and accommodating my requests! Would book again!”

“Grace was willing to come a long way for a trial walk and then realized it was too far. She was friendly and able to handle my larger dog and nervous smaller dog.”

“Awesome! Very friendly and reliable! Would not hesitate to use her every time to walk our dog!!”

“Obie enjoyed his walk, thanks!”

“I would highly, highly recommend Jess to care for your pet. She is a very compassionate animal lover and has experience with numerous kinds of animals. She has personally cared for, groomed and "Pet sat" for me with both my older black lab as well as my energetic rough coat collie. My dogs are always so excited to see her and never hesitate going with her. She even has her own dog grooming business and can pet sit and groom your dog as well. You will not be disappointed with Jess caring for your pets, she loves them all like her own and is very responsible and professional.”

“Barb is amazing!!! Every time she gets home, Lola gets super excited because she knows is time for her walk! Barb is sweet and very kind with my baby!! 100% recommended!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid My grandmother was a dog breeder and my step dad is a veterinarian. We are active in our house, we do dog walks, and play in the backyard. Your dog will be everywhere my dogs are. I have two Weiner dogs and a Aussie English shepherd. I don’t have any kids or cats in the house. I’m very knowledgeable about dogs and dog breeds. I do prefer to just watch one family’s dogs at a time. I’m currently working out of the home for my small business. Therefore my schedule is completely flexible. I’m willing to give dogs rides to and from home, if needed. I don’t have any children or responsibilities that could affect my ability to care for your pets. My dogs get walked everyday we have playtime in the backyard. Your dogs go and do what my dogs do. They’ll never be locked outside or mistreated. If your pup stays the night they sleep with me and my dogs unless they are crate trained and that’s how you want them at bedtime. A good routine is important for our pets and I’m committed to helping keep that.

“Paige is amazing and super caring with pets! She takes care of them and loves them like her own. She will know how to do everything that is needed, feeding, training, administering medicine. Also, all the loving in the world will be given!”

About: I've had different kinds of pets since I was 8. I have taken care of rabbits, cats, dogs, fish, and turtles. I always have a thing when it comes to animals, I really enjoy their presence. I'm very playful with animals and I always make sure that the animals I take care of are comfortable and happy being around me. I am currently a full time student. If you need me on weekdays please let me know because I have different schedules each day. Notes: I am pretty much available for the summer! My apartment is pet friendly. There's a big field next to my apartment. There is a lot of puppies in my neighborhood so your dog won't ever get lonely. There's also dog waste bags everywhere near my apartment, so your dog can potty anywhere. For cats, I have cat toys in my apartment because I have 2 cats but they currently live at my parents house, for potty I might have to buy the sand or if you could provide one that would be awesome!

“Adam is great at communicating and is very consistent. Values that mean so much to us when we are away from our fur babies. They are also so sweet and gentle to animals, it’s heartwarming to see.”

“Elliott is a very caring individual. He is responsible, timely, and detail oriented. He has experience dog sitting for family members. He is absolutely pawfect!”

“Heidi loves all animals. She takes her dogs on walks and to the dog park often. She has had many different types of pets that have lived long lives.”

“I've known Jordan since we were in Middle School. To say this woman has survived and thrived would be a huge understatement. She's by far the most resourceful, innovative, and passionate person that I know. She goes above and beyond to ensure that everything and everyone around her is well taken care of. Nova (her snake) is extremely lucky to have found her forever home with Jordan. Anyone would be blessed to have Jordan take care of their pet.”
