Dog Walking Swisher

About: I have had and cared for pets most my life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and other rodents. I currently simultaneously take care of a black lab and border collie frequently. I am recently retired and have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I care for a black lab and a border collie on a regular basis, so I’m very comfortable with high-energy dogs that need both physical activity and attention. Walks, playtime, and keeping them on their routine are a natural part of their care. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, and other small animals, so I understand that each pet has different needs—whether that’s active play, quiet companionship, or simply a calm, consistent presence. Making sure pets feel safe, cared for, and happy fits seamlessly into my everyday life. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment, whether in my home or a client’s home, and I follow routines and instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, exercise, and any special care. In my home, pets receive close supervision, structure, and plenty of attention. I stay alert to behavior and surroundings to ensure pets are safe at all times. My goal is dependable, attentive care so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.

About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I also have hands-on experience with reactive and anxious dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting my approach to each pet’s unique personality and needs. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Having experience with reactive and anxious dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and always prioritize safe handling on walks and during introductions. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Brooke came at just the perfect time of the day to take Dixie for her walk. Sent a great pic that calmed any concerns I had about using the service. Thanks Brooke!”

About: I have always had a strong passion and love for animals. I worked in a veterinary clinic for a months and I absolutely loved it! I have a dog and a cat of my own, i walk my dog daily and i take care of my animals every morning and night. I make sure they have food, water, a clean litter box, and enough love. I make sure that they are taken care of food wise, bathroom, toys, treats, and I give them enough love and attention that they deserve.

“Ashley was a rock star w/ our 103 lb. Ozzy. Despite multiple obedience classes, something in his past life made him leash reactive. Ashley worked w/ him and mostly got him to sit and respond when she said "Quiet" in a calming voice. She kept us updated while on our monthlong trip to Africa. It was clear when we returned to U.S. they had made a real connection. We are grateful for all her efforts and would definitely use her Rover services in the future.”

About: I have a funny farm on 10 acres outside of Shueyville. My dogs run freely but I’m happy to keep your pet on a leash as I live by a busy road. I pride myself on taking care of your fur baby like I care for mine. I am home full time so am very attentive and able to have a flexible schedule to meet your needs. I enjoy going for walks and it’s always double the enjoyment when I have a walking buddy! My guests are treated with the same care that I provide for my own animals and of course I am always happy to accommodate specific needs or requests as well.

About: My experience includes behavior modification, rehabilitation and foster care. Since I was my daughters age I have been pet sitting and working with animals and would like to share the experience I work at home everyday but Thursday. We are available for dog walking and live close to a park trail and we are looking for a family interaction. Crate services, roaming and family integrated home. We are able to walk your animals and provide check ins. I know how animals are part of the family.

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have pets of my own, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I regularly help out friends and family by checking in on their pets from feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they’re safe and happy. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone new, so my main priority is keeping their routine exactly the way they like it. Whether your dog needs a solid walk to burn off energy, or your cat just needs fresh food, a clean box, and some quiet company, I’m happy to help. I'll also send quick photo updates during every visit so you know everything is going smoothly! I structure my days so I can dedicate solid, uninterrupted time for visits. Because I stay organized, I show up when promised and never have to rush through a visit. Whether your dog needs a midday walk to break up the workday or your cat needs an evening meal and play session, your pet gets my full attention the entire time I'm there. Leaving your home and pets in someone else's hands takes a lot of trust. When I’m in your space, safety and respect come first. I always double check that doors are locked, gates are latched, and leashes are secure. I stick strictly to your exact instructions, whether that’s feeding routines, medication, or specific house rules, so you can go about your day without worrying, knowing your pets are safe and your house stays just the way you left it. Safety Note: For the safety of both your dog and myself, I do not use retractable leashes. Please have a standard 4- to 6-foot leash available for our walks!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both large and small dogs, as well as cats. I regularly help care for a German Shepherd, including feeding, administering oral medications, and providing frequent potty breaks and attention. I’m also experienced with smaller, high-energy dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. In addition, I have my own cat, so I’m very familiar with feline care, including feeding routines, litter box maintenance, and giving lots of attention to more vocal or affectionate cats. I also care for my own pet gecko, which has given me experience maintaining consistent routines and meeting specific care needs for animals. I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and needs, including pets that require extra care or supervision. I’m available Thursdays through Sundays for full-time care, and can also care for pets on my workdays after shifts. I’m experienced with adult dogs, cats, and pets with special needs, and I always make sure they receive attention, feeding, and potty breaks according to their schedule I provide attentive and loving care for pets, whether in my home or theirs. At a client’s home, I follow their instructions for feeding, medications, and routines, give pets regular attention and potty breaks, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I create a calm and clean environment with plenty of love, attention, and safe spaces for pets to relax and play

About: I’ve watched many dogs and two cats over the past 4 years usually over family friend vacations. I’ve worked with reactive dogs as well as two young puppies. I spoil my dogs and would be happy to treat your pets with just as much love! I am a part time college student so I have a TON of time to pet sit! As I prepare for dental school in the fall, I will also be free for summer work. I love staying with dogs in either an environment they are used to or my own depending on what the pet parent prefers! There is a fenced in dog park behind my apartment that is never occupied where I run around with dogs. If it is occupied, I would walk around the park nearby with lots to smell on the trail. I also love giving dog baths, so that could totally be included!

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I believe pets deserve a high quality of care. I have adopted dogs and cats in the past. At the moment I only have cats and miss having a doggy friend to walk and give rubs. I am comfortable with all sizes of animals and whatever special needs they may have, just wanna keep the fur babies happy. Currently my schedule allows me to be available: Saturdays and Sundays 10am-7pm Mondays-Friday 8am-6pm If you need different time accommodations message me and I can see what I can do. I don’t offer pet sitting in my home because of my 3 cats. I don’t want to create a stressful environment for any animals. In my clients home I will make sure they have plenty of exercise thru play and going for walks, clean water and sufficient food (accommodating special diet if necessary). Provide a safe environment for them to feel comfortable. I will abide to any and all rules the client has for their home and will keep my own footprint in their home small and clean up after myself.

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was born. My parents share the same love for animals as I do, and I think I love them more honestly! I’ve dealt with losing a pet, and adding new additions to the family. In my eyes no breed of dog or cat is superior and I would love to meet all the pets I can!! I am in school full time during the weekdays, but Fridays when I’m off of clinicals, I am more than happy to start a house sit or drop in!! On the weekends all of my services are available! I take my dogs for walks frequently. They are a bit stubborn sometimes (especially my olde english) but after we get walking they love being outside! The summer heat gets to them both though, so I would love to get outside!

“Thank you so much!”

“Jim is an amazing dog walker! He is always on time, reliable, and my dog absolutely loves him. He takes great care to ensure my dog gets plenty of exercise and attention during every walk. Highly recommend his services”

About: I live on a farm back home & have over a decade of animal care of all kinds! I have many farm cats and two dogs at home, as well as two cats that live with me! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes & would love to spend time with your best friend! I would especially love to hang out with dogs as I don’t want to get my own until I can give them a fenced in yard:) My boyfriend Gabe also helps out with the pet care! I am pretty free all summer & I can give as much or as little attention as your pet requires! I’m available to do random walks throughout the day or stay full time at your residence to give 24/7 care to your pet. I would like to follow your routine as much as possible, so honestly whatever you do with your pet I will copy! It’s important to keep their routines from changing frequently!

About: I have dog sat for everyone I know. I am the first person someone asks to dog sit. I provide lots of care, attention, and play for dogs. I enjoy walking and spending time with as many dogs as possible! Over the summer I have a very flexible schedule! When school starts back I will be available early afternoon’s on weekdays. I work in the schools so I am free when students have no school. My weekends are also very open. I have a field with trees near my apartment that dogs seem to absolutely love! I live alone with no animals so all attention and focus will be on the doggie!

“Amber was so good with our puppy! We will definitely be continuing to use her in the future!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs. In my adult life I’ve had 2 cats until elderly age and now I have 2 doodles, one of which I high anxiety. I am flexible (especially on nights and weekends) and enjoy being with animals (often times more than humans lol) 😃. I can typically works around my morning and afternoon schedule. I have a fenced in yard and boy is created each night. For my clients home, I provide care based on instructions with lots of love and pets!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have grown up surrounded by cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me! I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and simply spending time with your sweet friend. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Including pups who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience. I’ll do my best to create a calm and comforting environment. I’m happy to stick to their routine, give extra snuggles, or just sit with them quietly if that’s what helps them feel safe. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can see how they’re doing and feel reassured while you’re away. I’m currently a nursing student, so my schedule will depend on my classes and clinicals, but I won’t be working another job so it gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’ll keep my availability up to date and always make sure your pets get the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whether you need help with daily care or overnight stays, I’m happy to come to your home to feed, walk, play with, or simply keep your pet company. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities and I’ll always care for them as if they were my own.

“I’ve been putting off writing a review for Sally because I’m afraid she will get so busy, because of my glowing review, that she won’t have time for my dogs. 😬 Selfish, I know, but she is truly amazing and you’d be crazy not to trust her with your dogs. The thing I love most about Sally is that she takes care of my dogs the same way I do, and I know she just adores them. She takes them on a walk everyday while I’m at work and will play with them at home. She’s so kind, reliable, and trustworthy. You can’t do better than Sally!”
