Dog Walking Tippecanoe

“Berenice has been very reliable and sends cute photos of Wednesday on their walks. We have been very happy with her so far, and we feel our dog is in great hands!”

About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm comfortable with dogs from all walks of life. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.

“Angela took such good care of our boys! She was on time, a great communicator and sent awesome photos! Would highly recommend her for your pet’s care needs!”

“Tanya took care of my two dogs while I was out. She is simply amazing. Excellent communication and reliable. She is clearly a lover of all animals and treated my dogs like she’s known them forever. Will definitely book again”

About: CURRENT CLIENTS: If calendar shows us as unavailable during your potential stay, please still reach out. We may still be able to accommodate your pup. As former pet parents, we understand that your pets are an extension of your family. We will care for your pup like we would want our former pups to be cared for while we were away. We love having dogs around but currently don't have one of our own. We also will only sit dogs from one family at a time. Therefore, we are a perfect choice for those pups who like to be the center of attention. We currently work away from the home three days a week. Typically, these days are Tuesday - Thursday, but can be adjusted when we are sitting a pup that is not used to being home alone during the day or for first time clients. About the Home: We live in a single-family home in the Bay View neighborhood. The home has a partially fenced-in yard and is air conditioned with several windows for animals to look out of when not outside. We also have a deck where we spend most days (weather permitting) that has a gate so the dogs can be out there lounging with out. Dogs can roam freely in the house while we are away if that is what they are accustomed to that. Our home is tri-level with many stairs, so it may not be a good fit for dogs that don't do stairs well. Our neighbors also have dogs so if your dog isn't good with seeing dogs through a barrier such as a fence, we may not be a good fit. During your dogs stay, we will work to provide the same rules and training that you enforce in your home, ie walking habits, allowed on furniture, treats, etc. We do not allow dogs on our bed, so if they are accustomed to sleeping in the bed, we are not the best fit for your pup. Before taking on a new client, we will require a meet and greet to ensure both you and we (and your pup) are comfortable. This will also give us a chance to discuss any questions or concerns that either party has, to see the house, and let me know what concerns you have or things we should look out for. We ask that all dog parents be as honest as possible about their pup and how they have previously responded to being in an unfamiliar place or any other info that would be helpful for me to know while they are under my care. The more we know about your dog and their quirks the better we can take care of them. The best sits we've had are ones where the owners provide detailed information on their pup's habits and quirks. One of us currently is at home during the work day. We will work to keep your dog on his typical schedule. We are early risers so morning drop-offs are no problem for us. We treat the pets we care for just like we would if they were our own. We understand that someone's pet is an extension of their family.

“Emma is amazing with my senior dog as well as my younger dog. She is super sweet, responsive and communicative, and reliable!”

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! I’m available Monday-Friday afternoons. My cats live the best life in my home. In your home, I care for them as my own and give them lots of love!

“Lilyia was so great! She was super responsiva and communicative and took our walk requests on last minute notice.”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life — in 28 years, there have only been 7 days I've lived without one! I grew up in a home with five dogs, including four Bernese Mountain Dogs and a Sheltie. My family also responsibly bred Berners and Shelties, and I grew up around training, proper care, and learning to understand each dog's individual personality. Today, my own dog is still a huge part of my life. I also prepare homemade food for my dog and have learned a lot through that experience about paying attention to ingredients, sensitivities, age, energy levels, and individual needs. If your dog has a unique routine, dietary preferences, or special considerations, I'm happy to listen and follow the routine you've established for them. I'm comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, routines, and needs, and I believe patience and consistency go a long way. Most importantly, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I treat every dog like they're part of the family — with plenty of attention, patience, playtime, and care while you're away. 🐾 Pets are already a big part of my everyday life. I have always had dogs and currently have three cats of my own, so feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and keeping up with their routines are naturally part of my day. I’m also intentional about making time for the pets I care for. I’d rather give a pet my full attention than simply “check a box” and leave. I’m happy to work around their normal routine and give them the consistency they’re used to while their family is away. 🐾 I start by learning your pet’s normal routine — feeding times, walks, medications, favorite activities, boundaries, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. Then I stick to those instructions as closely as possible. I believe good pet care is about paying attention to the little things. I watch for changes in appetite, energy, behavior, bathroom habits, or anything else that seems unusual, and I’ll communicate with you if I notice something worth knowing about. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable, not like their routine has suddenly been turned upside down. Whether they want a long walk and lots of playtime or prefer to curl up somewhere quiet, I’ll meet them where they are. 🐶🐱

“Logan and Lola are so excited to see Kale every time! They always come home smiling and tired, and Kale has been awesome at reinforcing our training for Lola.”

“Darcy is always so excited to hear Diana’s voice at the bottom of the stairs. She charges down to greet her. They give each other a lot of attention. I highly recommend a walk and visit from Diana. Darcy is waiting for their next walk.”

“Cole treated my two dogs like family. His care and communication—regarding their daily walks—were absolutely comforting. He's friendly, trustworthy, and dependable. I plan to rebook with him in the future.”

About: I have worked fully remote for 10 years now which has given me the opportunity to devote lots of time to my own dog as well as friends and family! Experience in senior care and medications including oral and injection. Being home every day gives me lots of time for potty breaks, walks and treats. I have a dog of my own, Fern, who is a sweet and mellow 12 yo Bichon Frise. I also live blocks from the lakefront in a very dog friendly part of Bay View! I have staked leashes in both the front and back yard and am always closely supervising potty breaks and time outside. I also have a pet camera so I’m able to monitor when I’m not home for a couple hours.

About: I have always had a passion for animals since childhood. I began caring for pets in 2007 starting with my first family dog. I trained him and took care of him when he was only 8 weeks old. Now, I have an 10 year old dog I've had since she was 8 weeks and have had rabbits, cats, reptiles, birds, and more. I have been the go-to for friends and family for their pet needs; providing overnight care, dog walking, drop- in visits, and home/pet sitting. I pride myself in being the one to provide loving care to every pet as if they were my own. Animals bring me joy and I aim to provide them with love, happiness, and some fresh air whenever possible. Overall, I can promise we're all going to have a great time together. Fur sure! 😉 I work from home from 8 - 430pm, so this means early mornings and early evenings are dedicated to your pets and their needs! Im also connected with a few other local sitters to help coordinate any mid day drop ins if needed. I also work on socialization and basic commands and leash training whenever possible. I make sure we have vet and emergency information available and at the ready. I like to keep pets in their normal routine whenever possible and keep parents up to date as well.

“Kim was always punctual, polite, and professional on her walks with Wren! She even put in the extra effort to continue with her on-leash training plan with a clicker, after I gave her the instructions. I’d be glad to have her take care of my fur baby again!”

About: I am very caring and generous. I have dog and cat sat for family members and my hygienist! I am told that pets seem to get along with me. With warm inviting energy I am set to have a fabulous time with your pet and showing them the love and affection they need. I have had a course of many pets the past couple of years and have nothing but experience and knowledge on how to get along with the pets. I seem to enjoy pets all around and I just want them to have a good time while you have a good time as well. From having puppies to parrots a pet is always ones best friend! Let’s spread the the positivity all around!

“Tasha took our pups on a long walk and they loved it. After just two meetings, our reactive doggy is already comfortable with her and our social doggy was very excited to see her again!”
