Dog Walking West Buxton

About: I work at an emergency vet and have ample shelter experience, meaning that I love to take care of any type of animal. Have cats? Amazing! Have dogs? Also amazing! Have Chickens? Also also amazing! Whether your dog is super social or has stranger danger—I will gladly take care of any breed of dog. As previously mentioned I do love stranger danger pups—with my shelter experience, I’m incredibly skilled and patient with going at their pace. If you do have a stranger danger dog, I will gladly meet up as many times as needed for them to be comfortable with me free of charge before services are needed :) I work nights, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! If there’s any special care needed, I would be happy to accommodate and chat! I’m very respectful of other’s homes—I will cater to the animal’s needs! Doesn’t matter if they have a unique feeding routine or if they’re high energy. I’m also educated on resource guarding, so just let me know what’s needed! :)

I’m comfortable with regular walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their people are away. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pet. I’m dependable, attentive to the little things, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions. My goal is simply to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available for pet care on Wednesdays, when I work remotely, as well as on weekends. My weekday availability is more limited since I’m in the office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, but I’m happy to work with your schedule when I can.

About: Hii!! I’m a patient, caring sitter with 3 years of experience of caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I’m skilled at giving medications, calming anxious pets, and provided the attention your furry baby needs. I’m happy to send frequent updates to keep you at ease, treating your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I am currently looking for some time to spend with pets when I am not working. I have a passion to be with animals and it brightens my day to help someone and spend time with a cute furry pet. I love to be active and create an environment that the pets can thrive and be loved. I have free time throughout the week to tend to their needs and get them out of the house or play with them to get their jitters out. For dogs, I love to play with them and go for walks or runs so they can go explore. For cats, I make sure their environment is clean and give them constant snuggles and comfort.

“Was wonderful with my dog! :)”

“Kristen is an amazing dog walker! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was taken care of while on our week long honeymoon. She walked him, played with him, made sure he had food and water after the walk and when he had an accident, she was so kind to clean it. We can not recommend her enough.”

About: I am a force-free dog trainer and am currently enrolled in a Masters of Science degree in Applied Animal Behavior. I am CPR BLS Recover certified and have a B.S. in Animal Science. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. I can administer oral, SQ, and IM injections. I work full-time Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Like any person, their needs are unique, and I care for anyone else’s pet like I would my own. *** I do not use, support, or condone aversives in dog handling or care. This means that I will not use aversive tools (e-collars, prong collars, choke collars) or methods (leash-popping, yelling). ***
