Dog Walking Wade

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12 yrs old. It’s a passion of mine to make sure all animals are cared for and comfortable. I’m currently about to retire and looking to purse my passion walking, visiting, and playing with animals. My schedule is almost always open for anytime. I have a fenced in backyard I have five friendly babies and one cat. I’m open to any service taking care of your babies at your location or mine.

About: Hi! I’m a responsible and dependable college student who truly loves animals. I’ve cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors by feeding them, taking them on walks, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, playtime, or someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a student, but I have time throughout the week and on weekends to care for pets. My class schedule is planned, so I can stay organized and provide dependable care. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and love while following their normal routine. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know they’re in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I treat every pet like they’re my own by giving them lots of love, attention, and patience. I always make sure they have a safe environment, fresh water, and plenty of care while you’re away. I also believe in keeping pet owners updated with regular messages and pictures for peace of mind.

About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every animal has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes your pet feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I can help reinforce basic training and routines with younger pets, including potty schedules, crate routines, leash manners, and basic commands. For senior pets, I’m comfortable providing slower-paced walks, frequent potty breaks, medication reminders or administration when appropriate, and plenty of gentle attention. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, playtime, exercise, and companionship—and I’ll keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I can plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, litter box care, playtime, medication needs, and any special routines your pet is used to. I enjoy spending time with animals, so giving them attention, cuddles, and companionship never feels like a chore. I also make it a priority to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks or potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications when needed, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both your pet and your space. I make sure food and water areas are kept clean, litter boxes or potty areas are maintained, and your pet gets the companionship and exercise they need. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and receive lots of individual attention. I understand that some pets are social while others may be shy, anxious, or need time to warm up. I always let pets adjust at their own pace and follow any special instructions you provide. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve worked professionally with animals for over a year and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and exotic pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I previously worked at a dog boarding facility, where I cared for pets with a wide range of needs, including administering medications, caring for senior pets, handling anxious and reactive animals, and following individualized care routines. I currently work as a kennel technician at a veterinary hospital, where I am learning more about animal health and daily medical care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, giving insulin injections, and safely giving pills to pets that are hesitant to take them with food. I understand how important it is to carefully monitor pets for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. At home, I also care for 3 cats and 2 lizards, giving me firsthand experience with both traditional and exotic pets. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, elderly, or has special medical needs, I’ll treat them with the same patience, attention, and compassion that I give every animal I care for. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced hands. :) I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital on a rotating schedule, so my workdays vary from week to week. Because of that, I keep my availability updated regularly. Even on days that I’m working, I’m often available to provide drop-in visits before work, after work, or during other available times depending on my schedule. On my days off, I have much greater flexibility and can accommodate multiple visits or longer stays. I am currently only accepting bookings no longer than 2 weeks. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll always communicate my availability clearly before booking and make sure your pet receives reliable, attentive care. If you have specific timing needs, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to discuss whether I can accommodate them! I believe the best care comes from keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention based on their individual personality and needs. I’m happy to administer medications as directed, follow special feeding instructions, and accommodate senior pets or those with medical needs. I always pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and well-being and will let you know immediately if I notice anything concerning. I am totally okay with sending photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, go for walks, or simply have someone sit quietly with them, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return. :)) At this time, I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I may also be able to care for small caged pets in my home on a case-by-case basis.

“This was Alexis’ first time with my dog Otis and she was a hit. She communicated appropriately and arrived at the time she promised. She provided multiple pictures of the activities and locked my house back up like I asked her to. All around positive experience!”

“Taylor walked Roxi for almost two weeks while I was out of the country. She worked mostly with my mom, who said she did a great job and was easy to coordinate with. Roxi loved her. Being able to travel without worrying about Roxi meant a lot. I'd book Taylor again.”
