Dog Walkers in Umbarger, TX

About: I’ve always enjoyed watching my friends' pets and this is a great way to continue doing what I love. I volunteer at shelters when I am able to, which has given me the experience of breeds all shapes and sizes! I got my first dog, Cassiar, a Jack Russell Terrier, when I was just 3 years old. Growing up alongside her taught me important lessons about understanding dogs' unique needs, behaviors, and the deep, unconditional bond we share with our pets. With this knowledge, I strive to ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved! Since it is summer I am home 24/7 and have a very flexible schedule! Making it easy for me to cater towards your pets needs. I have a fenced yard that has plenty of room to roam around! As well as a clean environment for your pets to make them feel at home.

About: I have been in the pet industry for many years starting of sitting family and friends dogs and moving into a professional setting at boarding facilities. I have experience in senior care, giving meds, potty training puppies, active dogs, working dogs, dog aggressive dogs. I work part time so I am only away from the house a few hours at a time but other wise I am home with the dogs. I have a fenced yard. I will be able to crate your dog/s. I also have two friendly dogs that would love to keep your pups company but I can also do a crate and rotate system if that makes your dog feel more comfortable!

About: I understand that leaving your fur baby in the care of someone else can be nerve racking, please know that I promise to love and take care of your animal like they’re my own for our time together. I’ve consistently had dogs and cats my entire life, and love working with any kind of animal. I pet sit regularly for friends and family, and I have old neighbors/ friends who still ask me to come clip their dogs nails or bathe them. I work well with puppies and senior dogs as I have one of each of my own. I’m also very good with blind or deaf dogs. I’m working part time as a server right now so I’m available to hang and cuddle with your pets anytime after 3 pm! (Thursday- Saturday) I’m available to walk your pup or drop in and visit them anytime from 6am to 11am and 3pm to 10pm! (Sunday - Thursday) I’m available to walk or drop in and visit any time of day on Fridays and Saturdays! :) I will follow all directions left the owner when it comes to caring for their dog in their home. I will be incredibly respectful of your space and leave it exactly as I found it. When walking your pup their safety is my number one concern! I promise to make sure they don’t find anything that could possibly hurt them or let them be away from me at any point in time. At any point in time you will be able to contact me for an update, and I’ll automatically provide updates throughout my time with your animals just to ease your mind!

“Audrey is amazing! Our pup loves her. He is a shepsky with lots of energy and she will run with him to get him a good workout. She is professional and a great communicator through the app.”

About: I’ve owed dogs my whole life, currently owning 2(Italian greyhound and border collie/heeler)! I also have worked at a doggy daycares and grooming facilities! I am pet CPR certified and always carry a pet medical kit everywhere I go! Looking for ways to expand my pet care to help others! I currently work part time as an esthetician, but coming from working with dogs in my past I miss it and would like to get back into it. Right now I work appointment based so I have extra time on my hands! At my home my two dogs are very friendly and love to play with all kinds of other breeds! We have a large fenced yard and plenty of room to crate other dogs as needed.

“Makalli was incredible with my dog! I was so worried! I've never left my dog with anyone before. I am not local and was just passing through and needed someone to look after my dog while I went to an appointment. The appointment went long past expected and Makalli was so flexible and gracious about the whole situation! She put me at ease and did really well with my dog, who can be a bit of a rowdy one sometimes! Five out of five recommend!”

Your furry friend will be in the hands of someone who genuinely understands and respects their unique personalities, making me more than just a pet sitter—I’m your partner in keeping your pets happy, healthy, and loved. After years of working as a K9 officer, I decided to turn my passion for dogs into a business dedicated to their well-being and development.

My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where every dog can thrive. Whether it’s teaching obedience, addressing behavioral challenges, or offering a comfortable home-away-from-home, I’m committed to delivering personalized care and expert guidance for dogs and their owners. When dogs stay with me, they become part of my extended family. I understand how important it is for them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re away from home. Every dog in my care receives personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and affection tailored to their unique personality and needs. From maintaining their daily routines to ensuring they feel calm and happy, I go above and beyond to create a stress-free experience. Whether its exercise, or just sitting by their side, I treat each dog as if they were my own, ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and cared for every step of the way.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. Was raised in the country so we always had animals around. Cared for my dog and cat since they were babies, and have cared for my sisters 12 year old dog many times. I work from home unless I’m traveling, which I know my travel schedule far in advance. I’ll be around all day to love on and care for your babies like I would my own. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated as my own. Cuddling is always allowed. We’d take regular visits to the dog park if you feel comfortable or just throw the ball all day if that’s what she/he needs.

About: I have taken care of many animals in my life. I was in 4h and FFA growing up so I have an ag background. I raised sheep, a goat, and chickens for show. Additionally I have done pet sitting for many people over the years. I have helped train puppies, and care for elderly pets. I once bottle fed a puppy for a month and I had a 12 year old cat and an 18 year old lab. I have volunteered at shelters. I am also a pre veterinary animal science student. I am a student at WT this fall and I work when I’m not at school. Luckily my hours are pretty lenient so I use my time to gain more experience with animals. When I help you with your pet you are helping me with my future career. As someone who has pets of my own I know their safety is extremely important. I can medicate pets who need it, I have my own dog with medicine. I can take them on walks and play with them. Or if it’s preferred we can take it easy. I think it’s always best to keep an eye on pets.

I would love to spend some quality time with pups since I cannot have my own. My schedule varies from day to day depending on my class and practice schedule however I am open to visits before, in between, and after classes. Throughout high school I had the privilege to stay at several different houses caring for a wide variety of animals and allowing me to be comfortable pet sitting. I am an active person who loves spending time outside and would be more than willing to exercise your dog in any way you see fit. When interacting with a dog I know how important it is to make them feel comfortable and that is always my goal.
