Dog Walking Weekapaug

About: I was born in a household where I was surrounded by dogs. I have had 5 rescue dogs throughout my life. I started dog walking when I was ten years old, and have been dog walking/ dog sitting ever since. My family and I have a dog named Belle, who has been through extensive training, making me familiar with training. I’m also familiar with dogs of all ages ranging from puppies to seniors. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule. I am on summer break, and would love to help out in anyway I can. Based on the service I am offering, I am familiar with crate/leash training. I am comfortable taking the dog/dogs for walks when needed! I can also feed the dogs as well.

About: I am as reliable, flexible, and obsessed with animals as they come! Having grown up helping my parents with their petsitting business, I am experienced and familiar with the ins and outs of caring for other people's pets and homes. I also have three cats of my own who are the loves of my life, and have lived with several wonderful dogs over the years. As a long time Rover user, I know all too well how important it is for a sitter to send timely, thoughtful, and detailed updates after each visit. I strive to provide the same level of communication that I'd hope to receive about my own pets because I know how much this helps put your mind at ease while you're away. In addition to the services listed on my profile, I'm eager to help out in other ways that you might need - watering plants, receiving packages/bringing in the mail, etc. I'm happy to discuss this in more detail if there's anything else I can do for you. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I care for pets full-time, which allows me to be adaptable to other people's varying schedules when needed. Plans change, and things happen! We'll make it work. The flexibility in my schedule allows me to accommodate last minute bookings under most circumstances. I currently cannot care for pets in my home, as I unfortunately do not have the space needed to provide this service to customers right now.

“Erin is absolutely fantastic and our dogs love her! I was able to connect with her same day and she was over at a moments notice. Immediately trusted her with my high energy German short hair to run/walk off leash. Birdie loves Erin and so do we!”

“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of my pets this weekend! She was able to schedule a meet-and-greet on short notice and was very thorough collecting the care instructions for my two large dogs and three cats. She was so patient with my very large and active Labradoodle and St. Bernadoodle. My dogs seemed very attached to her quite quickly and she did a fantastic job with them. She arrived promptly according to the care schedule, sent detailed updates and was extremely professional and lovely to work with. I am so happy to have found such an excellent sitter in my area and will gladly continue to rebook Susan!! Highly recommended!”

About: As a dog owner for 15 years, I have always loved being around any and all animals. Happy to help reinforce training on walks or at home visits. I have pet sit before for multiple animals at a time, and can be flexible based on your needs! Truly just happy to spend time with your pet and help them. Looking forward to working together! I currently work full-time, however I work from home some days. Since I am home more than anticipated, I am looking to fill that time with furry friends. Though I do work full-time, I am flexible in the early mornings and evenings, and can be available on weekends. I grew up around animals, and helped my family take care of our Jack Russell Terrier as he grew to 15 years old. This involved carrying him up and down stairs, and occasionally providing medication. I currently have a dog of my own, an almost 2 year old Jack Russell mix, so I am very familiar with high energy dogs and am eager to provide physical and mental stimulation to help make your dog happy!

“Emma is the best!! She was so great with Sadie, brought her treats, walked her, gave her enrichment games to play when it was raining, and loved her like her own! Emma sends so many updates and takes the best pictures! A week after Emma watched said we saw her on the street and Sadie was sooo excited so I know she loves her. We seriously lucked out picking Emma and I would suggests her to anyone that needs help with their dog!”

About: I’ve grown up with a dog and cat my entire life. I have experience with training. I grew up walking my neighbors dogs. When my friend goes out of town I walk and feed her dog as well as her cat. I learn very easily so if there is specific needs for your pet, I will always follow those instructions. I have just started using the rover app and have had wonderful experiences with pets and families. I work some days during the week, but otherwise I am fully flexible. I’m open to discussing any needs and finding the best schedule for the pets! If there is anything I can do to ensure you feel comfortable, I am more than happy to work it out. Making sure your pet is cared for is my top priority.

“Heidii was WONDERFUL to work with. She came and met us and our pup ahead of time and made us so comfortable. Look forward to working with her again!”

About: I’ve been working with and caring for animals my entire life. My experience includes working as a vet tech, groomer, trap & release, spay & nueter programs, pet sitting, dog walking, animal transport, rescue and fostering. I am also comforable with administering medications and working with all personality traits. I understand the pack dynamic and am not intimidated when handling multiple pet type homes and dogs of all sizes. I am patient and animals respond well to my calm and confident nature. I work full time through out the school year and part time during the summer and can easily adjust my work schedule to accommodate drop in visits and dog walking services. Visiting pets can be crated if needed or gated in their own room while I am away from home. While I am home they will be free to roam the house and enjoy outside time safely in my fenced in yard.

About: I have grown up with animals, both large and small my entire life. From walking and running with German Shephards, Dobermans, Vizslas, Labs, Cocker Spaniels, and Yorkshire Terriers to playing with Rabbits and entertaining Cats - I can keep up with the best of them. I currently have a large cat of my own. I have trained high energy dogs and have experience walking them through the city. I have also been known to walk my cat on a harness. I currently work full time. I am able to check in or walk your animal after 5:30pm on the Monday- Thursday. My time is much more flexible on Fridays. I also have a flexible schedule on the weekends. I will treat your animals as if they are my own. Whatever requirements that are needed I will accommodate for to the best of my ability.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat (1 sheltie, 1 collie, and 1 Maine coon). I love caring for animals, I will make sure your pet is spoiled and happy! I love taking my 4-legged guests on adventures with my sweet girl (Nala) and I. I'm detail oriented, so I'm always aware of your pet and keeping them on their paws for new sniffs! Plus, to and from those adventures Dog Mode is always there keeping my pup passengers not only safe but also cool, in the case I'd need to make a quick stop along the way :) Your best friend is always treated as they are my own, ensuring they're treated exactly how I'd want my girl to be cared for. I'm not only willing to care for your pet but go above and beyond to provide an exceptional experience for them, whether it's a drop in, staycation, and/or walk! I always strive to make them to feel right at home no matter the service/circumstances. And if they come for a staycation, I have a beautiful, large side yard in a quiet neighborhood for playtime! My schedule is very flexible and I am able to make my own hours, so when I expect a 4-legged guest, I'm always on top of making sure I am home most of the day to give them all the love and care that they deserve. Care in my home begins long before hosting a guest, aka your best friend. Preparation to ensure my home feels comfortable for them, whatever that may be, I'm dedicated to giving my 4-legged guests the staycation that they can't wait to come back to.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. We have always had multiple at a time. I am very comfortable with all dog types and sizes. Do not mind walking or caring for multiple dogs at once. Also have lived with cats and enjoy being with them as well! My work schedule varies every week. I choose my schedule on a month to month basis. I am out of town sometimes for work. But my schedule can be flexible. I have a fenced in yard and big area to run around and play. Do not mind crating if needed and what you’re comfortable with for your dog.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and family’s furry friends for the last 15 years. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets often. Until recently, I had my own senior dog and had taken care of puppies, adults, seniors, and even dogs with disabilities. I currently work part time and am able to fit in walks or drop in visits around my regular daily schedule. I usually only know my schedule two weeks in advance. I am not able to take care of your pets in my home but am happy and able to keep them comfortable in their own space!

About: I have had experience with my own dog as well as watching & walking others’ pets since I was around 10 years old. I’ve also helped my sister with her Rover pets! I currently work from home. I am able to take multiple breaks during the work day. I currently work from home so I have plenty of time then and on the weekends to care for your pet! I also take walks myself daily and would love for your dog to join. I am all about the safety of your pet! Please let me know if they have a harness for walks, their reactions to other dogs/people, and if they need any special care.

About: I’m a 41 year old professional who loves animals. I have a 4 year old cat of my own and have always wanted a puppy as a child. Animals are loving and calming to me. I help care for them they help me. I will dog walk which keeps them happy and me active. I will drop in on cats and dogs to feed play with and help go to the bathroom. If it’s the right fit for your family and pup I would stay 1 night a week and definitely weekends overnight while people are away or traveling. I am an open communicator, reliable, respectful, trustworthy professional. Please get to know me so I can get to know you and your animal has the best experience possible. I currently have lots of availability and I would be my pleasure to walk and check in for your pups and cats several times a week. I have a yard on a dead end street, a big basement and am very close to Wilcox Park, ready for long walks in great neighborhood with lots to explore.
