Dog Walking in Syracuse

“Kiana has been a genuine gift to our family. We started with her about six months ago for our 14-year-old miniature schnauzer/French bulldog mix, Lucy — and over that time she became so much more than a dog walker. As Lucy’s health declined, Kiana adapted without hesitation — adjusting pace, duration, and handling — and never made us feel like we were asking too much. What stands out most is how much she genuinely cared. You can tell the difference between someone who likes dogs and someone who sees your dog. Kiana saw Lucy. She was patient with her on the slow days, gentle when Lucy needed it most, and flexible with our schedules in ways that took real stress off our family during a really hard season. We’re grateful as a family for every walk she gave our girl. If you have a senior dog or one with changing needs, Kiana is exactly who you want in your corner.”

“I’ve used Kara for walks and boarding for my two dogs. Due to being a single dog mom with little access to help from friends or family, finding Kara has been a blessing! She handles my pups so well! She even has brought in packages on my porch if I’m not home. She goes above and beyond!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and more. I currently have two dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine so I tailor their care to match. I offer more than just boarding. Your pet can enjoy structured walks, trail hikes, enrichment play, drop-ins, bathing, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m also experienced with administering medications, so you can feel confident your pet is fully cared for. Your pet will be part of a calm, loving home with my two animal-savvy kids (15 & 11), getting real family attention, not just supervision. Whether your pet needs adventure, playtime or snuggles, I’ve got them covered. You’ll get regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved. I’m home full time and ready to spend the day doing what your pet loves the most. Whether that means fetch at the park, an adventurous hike, or Petflix and chill, we’ll make the most of our time together. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. Your pets will have plenty of options when it comes to getting cozy and comfortable. If your pets feel more secure in a crate of their own, I’m happy to provide space for that too.

About: My pet of 14 years recently passed away. In the meantime, while I’m not ready to adopt another pet yet, I would love to create a loving, calm, and trustworthy environment for pets who need care, attention, and affection while their humans are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand how important it is to feel at ease leaving your pet with someone you trust. My schedule is opened on weekends for boarding and dog sitting, possibly available during the week as needed. Just message me and we can work out the details I live on my own. There is a fence yard where I live and my apartment is pretty spacious to host small to medium dogs.

“Kiersten is ALWAYS awesome! She’s always able to work with my schedule and has been great to work with with my puppy since the very beginning. She’s intuitive and adjusts well to situations like sick dogs.”

“Brianna and her sister are amazing! Milo loves going for walks with them and I know him and my cats are in good hands. They are super reliable, quick to respond and very sweet. I always love to see the pictures of how their walk went and how my kitties are doing. I would recommend then to anyone looking for a great walker/sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind and I love them all!! I have been dog sitting for 2 years now and also have my own animals that I love and take care of constantly. I also have a big back yard and lots of room in my home! I have had my own pets for my whole life so taking care of pets is my daily routine! I do work a part time job but it is early in the morning, so after that I go home and take care of my own pets. I have a fenced yard and lots of room in my home. I also have 2 dogs of my own that are small and very nice. I have many crates of all sizes if needed as well.

About: I take very good care of any and all animals! I do my best to put their needs first!l even after a long day of work! I do work mornings and have most nights off! I do my best to put the pets first! Week days are a little hard if requested! As far as services, I am very careful and follow directions given. I want the best for my pets and i would expect to do the same for others!

About: I’ve had dogs for my whole life. Ever since I was little I was taking care of them, feeding them, taking them on walks, and playing with them. I love spending time with dogs and playing around with them. At one point, I had 4 dogs in my house growing up, so I can handle if you have a few pets. Ive had older dogs and puppies, so I’m experienced in taking care of both. Right now, I have open availability. I’m available to drop by when needed or stay as long as I need to ensure your pets are properly taken care of. The apartment I’m living at is currently pet free, but growing up I had a fenced in back yard for our pets to run around in. We also would put them in their crate when we needed to go somewhere. I also have dog sat for people who did not have a fence, so when it came time for the dogs to go outside, I would put them on a leash.

About: I have been watching dogs for around 6 years and have been reliable to many clients to take the best care of their animals. I usually walk the animals along with spending the night if needed and will spend long hours with the pets. I currently am a full time student at Weber so in the evenings I have a lot of free time. I don’t have any set times or days so I can work around schedules pretty easily. I have a fenced backyard and a doggy door so my dogs can roam around freely as they please. I take one of my dogs on walks and the other one I play fetch with to make sure they get exercise they need.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid—whether it was walking neighborhood dogs, pet sitting for friends and family, or volunteering with rescues. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own pets every day, so adding a few more furry friends to the mix fits right in! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or extended stays, I make sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pets comfortable, safe, and on their usual routine. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication if needed, and of course—plenty of love and attention. I keep things clean and tidy, and I’m happy to send regular updates so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands.

About: Pets are members of our family, and our family deserves to be taken care of. I absolutely adore animals, I have pets of my own, and they are my whole world. I have an adorable Maltese named Fizzgig and a Black Cat named Thackery Binx. Prior to this dog, I had a Maltese named Tinkerbell. I just want to be able to care for other animals as I have cared for mine. We all have responsibilities that keep us away from home most days, and we want to be sure our little fur babies are well-cared for in our absence. I can promise you that I will provide to their every need, and maybe even spoil them a little bit! I’m a published author, and I spend way too much time locked up inside writing. I need to get out and walk and have a break from the soul-sucking experience of sitting in front of the screen all day. I hate sitting idle. I have too much energy. Dogs have too much energy. It's a perfect match! I need something else to keep me moving in a day, and playing with precious animals seems like the perfect job! I can crate or leash dogs to ensure they will not run away, and if your cat is exclusively a house cat, I am well accustomed to keeping those quick felines from darting outdoors.

“Thank you so much Makaila for being my dogs first dog walker! Makaila was great and provided lots of updates and photos. This was my dogs first time getting walked by a stranger so I was nervous but Makaila made me feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend and will use her again!”
