Dog Walking Troy

About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 11 years old. My experience ranges from newborn puppies/kitties to senior animals as well. When I was 16, I was working at a ranch as a dog/puppy tech handler. I helped clean, groom, and train miniature Australian Shepherds. As well as I handled mama dogs and their babies! While there, I also fed a feral colony and acquainted myself with some of the barn animals (Horses, cows, bulls). Over the years, I have fostered and bottle-fed various litters of puppies and kittens. Now I own 5 cats and 2 dogs. I am comfortable with big or small animals! I look forward to caring for y'all! Currently, I am taking courses for medical coding/billing for AAPC. So my classes are every Tuesday and Thursday from 6 pm to 8 pm. But other than that timeframe, I am completely flexible! I do prefer to be able to go to the client's home as I feel that is what most pets are more comfortable with. Whether you have cameras or not, it is not a problem. Any type of special latches, gates, key codes, etc. Is not a problem either. Animals hold a very special place in my heart, so rest assured, your baby will be my baby.

“My baby boy LOVEEESSS Suzanne! She always brings him treats and goes on mile long walks that he absolutely enjoys. She is like a part of our family and we are blessed to have her.”

“She was an Awesome dog walker. What I liked most about her, was her follow up after the walk. She is the one that will take Great care of your fur babies.”

About: I’ve casually taken care of dogs and cats for friends for several years, but I’ve had experience handling farm animals like alpacas since I was eight. I’m not afraid of cleaning messes or handling big pets, and I love to pamper my fluffy clientele! I’m a college student who has a lot of availability, so I’m here for your pets every need. I can pop in early morning, noon, and late at night! I like to keep every environment I’m in better than I found it, and I’m happy to tidy up and comfort my fluffy pet friends when their family is away

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals on my family’s farm over the past 8 years. I've helped take care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, and cows, which has taught me a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and how to handle animals with different needs and temperaments. As a college student home for the summer, I fit pet care into my daily routine by planning around my work schedule and training. I work as a lifeguard in Temple and I'm a college athlete so I must get my workout in each day. I make time for feeding, walking, or checking in on pets, depending on what's needed. My schedule is flexible in the summer months. I ensure they have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, with fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including medication, dietary needs, or favorite toys and activities. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I prioritize each pet’s well-being as if they were my own.

“Katelyn is phenomenal! Excellent with my dog and very knowledgeable in animal care & behavior. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have always had cats in my life since I can remember. Now I have 3 of my own. 2 inside and one outside. I know how to feed, clean and care for all pets needs. We also now have a dog in our family and he is spoiled rotten. He likes to go on walks, play fetch All of our animals are cared for in the mornings when we wake up. Everyone gets fresh water and food. My long haired cat gets combed daily, medicine in his eyes and eyes cleaned out. By that time it is time to feed everyone I have a fenced yard for my dog and my two cats stay in the house. My outside cat comes in and out all day, eating and playing with the other kitties.

“Did a great job of communicating with me. I would recommend her to take care of your puppies.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have cared for many of my own over the years. I understand pets are family, and I’m committed to giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away.

I’m able to plan my days around pet care and am available as early as needed. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’ll always treat your pets like family—because that’s what they are. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and calm environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. My own pets mean the world to me, and I’ll give yours the same respect, attention, and affection.

About: Raised an australian shepard pup and kept her occupied and also have dog sat, walked and had sleep overs with from huskies to shelter pups. Never met a dog I didn't like. I have a very open schedule for frequent walk and stop ins. Setting pups up for the night and making sure they are tired from every walk. I always ask what their typical routine is to mimic it in the dogs safe space and am focused on replicating it as well as I can.

About: I have had animals my entire life and currently have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a horse. My full time job is on a farm taking care of horses so I have the ability to administer fist aid and medications and am comfortable with all sizes and shapes of animals. Also have experience with goats and pigs. I currently work part time and travel some for work so my schedule is flexible and easy to work around. I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.

Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a sensitive soul who needs a little extra grace, I tailor my approach to ensure they are tired, happy, and secure by the time you get home. ​Having managed the pulling power of large breeds and raised reactive, high-drive mixes, I know firsthand that not every dog is an easy walker. I bring a calm, highly disciplined, and observant approach to every visit. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to not just your pet's well-being, but your total peace of mind. ​My Special Skills & Premium Services Include: ​High-Drive & Large Breed Management: Confident, safe leash-handling and focused exercise for powerful working breeds and strong pullers. ​Behavioral Reinforcement: Utilizing consistent positive reinforcement, professional handling techniques, and keen observation of canine body language. ​Reactive Dog Handling: Creating safe, predictable, and low-stress environments for anxious or sensitive dogs. ​The "Extras" Standard: Going above and beyond with thorough post-visit clean-ups, basic maintenance brushing, and exceptional respect for your home. ​Unmatched Communication: Providing highly detailed updates and quality photos so you never have to guess how your pet's day is going. ​I am dedicated to building long-term bonds and am currently prioritizing clients looking for reliable, recurring weekly walks and drop-ins. ​Pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it is my full-time profession!

I love incorporating short, positive training sessions and enrichment games into our day to keep their minds sharp. They will get plenty of scheduled feedings and "tummy rub" downtime, but they will also get the structure and focused play they need to stay happy and appropriately tired out. ​When caring for pets in your home, my "extras" are standard. You can expect: ​Total Home Respect: I leave your home exactly as I found it—or cleaner! This includes thorough post-walk wipe-downs so muddy paws never track through your house. ​Premium Upkeep: I am happy to provide basic maintenance like brushing to keep your pet's coat looking great between grooming appointments. ​Complete Peace of Mind: You will never have to wonder how things are going. I provide comprehensive, highly detailed updates and quality photos after every single visit. ​Your dog won't just be watched; they will be active, engaged, and exceptionally well cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Kaycee!! I have been an animal lover my entire life!! Growing up my family and I always owned multiple pets which lead the my love for animals! I have always loved caring and playing with dogs and showing them the endless love they continuously give us!! Let me be your puppies next best friend🩷 I am currently working PRN as an Occupational Therapist, however I am off most days out of the week to have tons of play time with your baby throughout the day! As a dog owner myself I know the high expectations I would have for someone caring for my pets. I plan to uphold my high standards for you and your loved ones! At my home I have a fenced yard where I spend most evenings sitting on the porch playing fetch with my babies. But, that never stops us from being a couch potatoe or going on a long walk! If your dog stays in a crate or is free to roam your home I can ensure they will be cared for in the best way possible!
