Dog Walking Waterloo

“We (and especially our dog!) really appreciate Ellen's daily dog walks for Arlo. Ellen is reliable, punctual, and very communicative of any issues with Arlo. On a day with thunderstorms, she sat and calmed him down, and she even turned the radio one day when we forgot! We're so glad we found Ellen. Cannot recommend her enough!”

About: I have helped my family take care of our pets almost my whole life! Since moving out I’ve had my own pets (cats and dogs). I understand the importance of giving your pet attention while you’re gone, since they could be stressed with the change in routine! I’m a farm girl at heart! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, sheep, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rats, hamsters….you name it! I work from home so I’m available to spend time with your pets throughout the day! As long as I have access to Wi-Fi I can work from anywhere! I am comfortable with crate training if your pet needs it. I follow direction very well so just leave me with a detailed note on how things run and I’ll keep it as consistent as possible for your pet!

“Emily was wonderful to work with. She was very flexible and loved my dog. She did what I asked for her to do with my dog. This was my first time using Rover 🐾 and I will definitely use it again because of my experience with Emily.”

About: I grew up on a horse farm and always had a variety of animals around me. A cat and dog were our constant companions, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. As an adult, I realize that growing up that way taught me responsibility from an early age. I understand how important it is to have someone you can rely on and trust when you’re away from home, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in my care. When I care for your pets, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll give them the attention, affection, exercise, food, and care they need—and of course, I’ll clean up after them and leave your home just as I found it, if not better.

“We have booked Lindsey quite a few times now and we are so grateful for her! She is a huge help and our dog loves loves her. He is always so happy and does his tip taps when he sees her. I love knowing my dog is excited to play and hang out with her! She’s very reliable and I love the detailed rover cards and lots of pics!”

“Sadie is so sweet and kind! She's great with my highly energetic dog, Scout. She walks him all around my neighborhood and is kind to all of our neighbors she meets on our walk. She's very dependable and has great communication skills. I am so glad I found her to help me with Scout!”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. My Dad went to school to be a Veterinarian, so we have always been around different animals. I have two cats at home, and recently just lost my beloved dog, Lexi! I currently work as a flight instructor so my schedule is very flexible! I typically start later in the day or early in the morning. Plenty of time to help out!! I can walk, feed, clean-up after any pets. I have no preference, little, big, cats and dogs. I am able to understand pets all have very special needs and want to fulfill those.

About: I've had a fun-filled house with dogs and cats since I was in elementary school. I've worked professionally with pets as well, such as pet dental hygienist assistant, pet store associate and birthday party tour guide, and Chewy supervisor. I'm currently looking for opportunities to help out with pets of all sizes, ages, and abilities. I'm able to provide care to your fur baby all day. I can also devote nights and weekends to them! I have three dogs who are friendly. One has anxiety, so she keeps to herself mostly, but loves to snuggle with other dogs. I keep all foods and small items off of the floor, away from curious snouts. I have a fenced area in the back yard.

About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a child, got our first dogs going into high school, and have since cared for multiple different owners pets in addition to my experience growing up. I’m currently taking classes full-time, so daily walks are ideal to get myself moving and keep your pups healthy as well! I also am open to overnights & longer stays, as my class schedule isn’t too heavy for in person lectures, which is ideal to not be gone too long when taking care of pets for multiple days. I will care for your pets with your & their best interest in mind, based on however you like to care for them & whatever suits their/your needs!

About: What sets me apart is my dependable, loving care. I treat every dog like family, giving patient attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. I work mornings in retail. Then have college classes in the mornings and later in the afternoon into the evening. Some days I am done with classes early. I have more flexibility on the weekends. I adapt to each pets needs. I grew up with cats and dogs, and provide walks, cuddles, space if needed, plus updates, photos, and lots of love, care, and attention.

“Elizabeth was great with our dog Cash giving us updates with pictures and giving him nice long walks. Will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve worked with animals professionally for 3+ years, I started out working at an animal shelter and I am now working as a veterinary assistant. I’m currently in school to become a veterinary technician! Friends and family have relied on me for many years to walk, feed, play and just hangout with their pets! I love all animals big and small! I am currently in college and working part time but I have extra time to take care of your fur babies! I have lots of spare time within my weekly schedule! I can easily make accommodation's for any of my clients homes and pets and any of their needs! Whether it’s just stopping in for a potty break, a meal time or a walk!

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!) and am currently training for a half marathon, so getting good long walks or jogs in will be built into my day! I work remotely, so keeping your pretty company through the day is no problem! I start my mornings early work a run or walk so your dog will definitely get his steps in. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.
