Dog Walking Walesville

About: Hi, I'm Emily and animals have been at the heart and center of my entire life. Animals bring quality and enrichment to our lives and I like to give that back in return. I've been fortunate to have animals since I was a little girl, from pocket pets, to cats, dogs, goats, horses and even a cow! In a professional capacity, I was a veterinary technician for over 8 years, providing emergency and routine care, for both large and small animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, chickens, cows, horses, and donkeys while owners were away for about the past 10 years. The last 4 years, I have been active in kennel clubs, taking classes and learning about dog training. I am currently co-teaching obedience classes and plan to continue learning about dog behavior and training. I am currently taking clients for drop in visits and walks. Drop in visits will be tailored to your pet's specific needs, providing potty breaks, fresh food/water, cleaning, comfort, & play. Walks provide physical and mental stimulation, companionship, basic skills and play. **For large dog requests, I ask as a courtesy that they are well mannered and are not likely to jump on me and knock me over or drag me as I am only 100lbs 🙂 thank you! Safety is of utmost importance. I am committed to your pet's mental, physical health, and safety overall. I will take care as I do my own. I recognize that each animal has its own personality, some are outgoing, some are shy. I will allow them to be who they are so that they can feel safe in my presence. I will communicate with you based on your preference. I provide reports at the conclusion of each check-in, also happy to send photos if your pet is comfortable with that.

“Love Gabriella!”

“I booked Sophia last minute this week and she of course accepted and gave the best updates on my pups! I always rely on Sophia as my dogs love her!”

“Katie is a wonderful walker, always tires out my boy and is an excellent communicator.”

“Camille responded to my request within the hour and was able to come for a first time, last minute, dog walk when the dog walker I had lined up cancelled. Judging by the smile on my pups face in the photos she sent, I’d say she took good care of him. Thank you Camille!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and love every furry friend like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including high energy puppies, senior dogs, and anxious personalities. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love that go into caring for them at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust someone, so I always prioritize communication, reliability, and a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks. Being home allows me to give pets consistent attention instead of leaving them alone for long periods. At my home, I have a small fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Safety is always my top priority, and I keep a structured, calm environment while still making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I also have three friendly pugs who are well socialized and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have built-in companionship and playmates (if they enjoy other dogs!). I always introduce dogs slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact routine including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and house rules to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or theirs.

About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.

About: I have always loved dogs thats why I became a pet groomer. I have been grooming for the last three years hoping to learn cat grooming soon. With that I experience dogs of all ages, health conditions, behaviors, and sizes. I work well with anxious/reactive dogs. My personal dog is very people and dog selective so im very understanding if your pup is as well. I also own reptiles and few cats. I have pet sat birds in my youth. I work full time but my days start at diffrent times but stay the same week by week. Im able to do drop in visits or short walks on my lunch break. I go into work at 12 on Mondays, I get out around 4 on Thursdays and every other Friday, my days off are Tuesdays and Sundays. As a groomer safety and trust are my number one priority between me and the dog. I go at the dogs pace, build that relationship, and read body language well. I also treat every dog in my care as my own. I would put myself in harms way to keep them safe, they are my everything.

“Alexxis is amazing! She’s on time, reliable, and wonderful with my pup. She’s been great when I’ve needed a quick schedule change or with any special needs my dog has. She’s the best”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family and friends since I was young. My favorite part is being getting to be outside to take them on walks! I’m also willing to take them out on jogs if they require faster paced activity! I’m currently a student from out of state, so I’m missing taking my pups for walks back home! Edit: I’m back home for the summer (Marcy, NY) and am available Monday - Friday from 6am - 3pm for walks and drop ins. I’ll update my availability again when I head back to school (Morgantown, WV)! I will give your pups full and constant attention while they’re under my supervision, ensuring that they get sufficient exercise and mental stimulation! I’m more than willing to send photos throughout my time with them for updates as well!

About: I've taken care of and raised several animals in my life. Everything from cats and small breeds like pugs up to New Foundlands and shepherds. Senior care and puppy training have always been something I enjoy I'm currently working from home so I will always have time to care for your fur babies at anytime regardless if it's day or night I always treat my pets and others pets with love and respect. All toe beans will be in a safe and friendly environment because taking care of animals has always been an obsession

About: Hi, I’m Emily. I grew up with all kinds of pets and have always had animals in my life, so taking care of them just comes naturally to me. I’m starting school for radiology in September, so my schedule is pretty open right now and I’d love to help however I can. I’ve taken care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m reliable, patient, and careful to follow any instructions exactly as given. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra care. I’m also respectful of your space and always aim to leave your home just as I found it. Communication is important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule right now with full availability during the week and weekends, which allows me to focus on providing reliable pet care. Once I begin school this fall, I’ll continue to offer care on evenings and weekends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or some one-on-one attention, I’m happy to help when you need it. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m a pet owner myself and have animals at home, so I truly understand how much they mean to you. I always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully, stick to routines, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also respectful of your home and aim to make the whole process as easy and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

About: As a current pet store employee, I’m constantly refreshing my knowledge on all animals so that I can better help any pet parents that come in. This includes staying up to date on care and training practices, as well as knowing what products are useful and needed and when they may be needed. I also work closely with the grooming and training team, so I have a bit of knowledge in those areas as well! As a college graduate with a biology degree who’s main focus was on animals of all kind, I take animal care very seriously. I constantly am reading up on care and learning to understand animal body language as best as humanly possible. My animals mean the world to me, and I know others feel the same way about theirs. If theres any way I can assure people their pets and comfortable and safe while they’re away, that’s what I try to do. I am very vigilant while I am watching any type of pet, meaning I’m always making sure they are not getting into anything they shouldn’t, that they are properly restrained when outside of the home, and that they are living in a clean home while I am there. Cats litter boxes scooped daily, dogs walked daily and well engaged in activity, and any other pets properly cared for as well.

About: My name is Tim Borza and I was born and raised right outside Utica, NY. I’ve been watching pets for the last 7 years, with the last 3 being back in the Utica area. I had a dog growing up, and currently have one of my own now. I am open to all services, but primarily care for dogs in my own home in Whitesboro, NY. I own my own business so I am on my own schedule making for dog care very easy. I am able to provide bathrooms breaks and go for walks at inconvene times if needed. I have a fenced in yard and live by myself making for a relaxing, comfertable and playful environment. I also own a dog of my own with a great temperament and have been caring for dogs for years.

“I was very grateful that Lisa was able to spend some time with my dog last minute!”

I work a 10 month full time job and would love to help care for your pets in my time off. I'm available most weekends and some weekday evenings/mornings as well as nearly daily in the summer. I will feed, walk, play with, and give medicine to your pets. They will feel a sense of kindness and caring while I am with them.
