Dog Walking Wade

About: My greatest loves in this world are animals and nature. I enjoy pets of all sizes, I’ve taken care of all kinds of breeds from Rottweilers to Jack Russell Terriers. I’m experienced with all stages of life, I recently lost my amazing 13yo lab/Irish wolfhound mix after raising him from a puppy. I’m comfortable giving medication and light grooming/brushing, but my favorite is getting them outside for some fresh air and exercise. I love caring for cats and plant-babies too! I’m a freelancer and enjoy taking breaks throughout the day to step away from my computer and get my blood pumping. Making my own schedule means I can be flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m a gentle but firm soul and find a way to connect with a wide variety of temperaments. I’m happy to go slow and meet animals where they are since I know proper care and attention is not one size fits all.

“Lindsey is kind, reliable and wonderful with our very discerning Cavalier. We are so grateful for her help and highly recommend her!”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Daniela has been absolutely wonderful with our dog Winston and a huge help to us! You could tell right away how much she cared - she always checked in to see what time frame worked best for us to grab him before his walks, spent time with him in the dog park to play fetch and let him run around with friends, and also walked him around the complex to ensure he got his exercise in. We loved receiving the photos after each outing. Winston came home happy and tired every time! We highly recommend using her if you live in the area and are looking for a reliable and loving dog walker.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog. I booked her for a 30-minute walk every day around noon, and I told her I was very flexible with timing. She was always reliable and showed up when scheduled, but what really stood out to me was how much she genuinely cared about my puppy. Even though the walks were booked for 30 minutes, she constantly went above and beyond. Whether it was an extra minute, five minutes, or even ten, she never seemed rushed and truly spent quality time with my dog. After every walk, I didn’t just get one quick picture. I would get several adorable photos along with detailed updates about everything they did. She would let me know about their walk, any interactions they had, and even small thoughtful things like cleaning out his water bowl. You can tell Lauren is not just doing this as a job. She genuinely loves dogs and enjoys spending time with them. That kind of care, attention, and thoughtfulness is rare, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my puppy was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for her and will absolutely book with her again!”

“Jacob helped us out in a pinch when we moved and we couldn’t be more grateful for his hard work. He cares so much about Penny and leaves photos and walk recaps. Hw is consistent and Penny looks forward to his walks. He was understanding and fair when we had two errors as owners (address not updated and key not left under mat.). Highly recommend!”

“We’ve only had a couple of walks so far with Rosemary, and I’m already very impressed. Our beagle, Abbe, absolutely adores her! As soon as Rosemary pulls into the driveway, Abbe starts crying and wagging with excitement — she can’t wait to get out the door and run to her. I’ve watched them walk by the lake from my back deck, and Rosemary is wonderful with her. She’s patient and kind, but also firm when she needs to be — not a pushover, which I really appreciate. She communicates well, is always pleasant to talk to, and clearly loves what she does. I highly recommend Rosemary to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and skilled dog walker. — Jeff Basham”

About: I have been a pet sitter on Wag for over a year now and I absolutely love it. I have pet sat for over 35 clients including walks and at home sits. I have several years of experience pet sitting for friends and family and am a current pet owner myself. I own two dogs, one of which is a puppy. I have experience caring for puppies and elderly dogs in my own home and pet sitting. I also have experience working with cats and have previously owned a kitty myself. I am a college student just looking to work with my favorite animals! I absolutely adore dogs and cats and want to spend every free minute I have with them. I usually do most of my sitting on the weekends and afternoons/evenings, basically anytime I’m not in class. I have a very high energy puppy so I have lots of experience with play time and getting wiggles out. I love to stay active and always enjoy a good walk as well. I am comfortable feeding, giving medicine, crating, and cuddling with of course. I also have worked with very timid dogs and understand the importance of slow introductions and treats to help dogs feel more comfortable.

“This is second time having Penny come walk our dog. She has been nothing but kind and professional and we appreciate her helping us last minute.”
