Dog Walking West Elsdon

About: i’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. i take the time to make shy or anxious pets feel safe and comfortable, and i adjust my approach depending on their energy level and needs. i’m also very reliable with routines and communication, so you can trust your pet is getting consistent care and attention. pet care is part of my everyday routine, as i currently care for two kittens with consistent feeding, cleaning, and play schedules. i’m used to planning my day around their needs, so incorporating additional pet care is something i can do reliably & consistently. when caring for pets in a client’s home, i focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. i follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific preferences your pet has. i take the time to understand each cat’s personality—whether they’re social or more independent—and adjust my approach so they feel comfortable in their own space. i also keep the home tidy and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Tara is a great caretaker and is amazing with our dog. Tara has helped us in emergency situations when our regular dog walker is unavailable, and, fortunately, she’s always found time for us in her schedule. Our dog loves her and our family is very appreciative of Tara’s time and expertise.”

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I always strive for a 5-star experience, but my top priority will always be the safety of the pets in my care. I chose to refuse a request to take a cat outside without a harness, as the flight risk was far too high. It resulted in a low rating, but I will never compromise an animal's safety. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

About: Being an animal lover, I have taken care of all of my own pets and those of friends and family. From guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish, cats, and dogs. I have seen the absolute best with pets and will do anything that a pet parent wants for their pet. While I look for a full-time/part-time job, I am available any day of the week, Monday-Friday, 7 am- 6 pm, and Weekends, any time of the day. I am able to come over you house, to be able to care for your pet when it is required. I am unable to at my house since I am in the process of moving. I am comfortable being in your house to ensure your pet is in a familiar area.

About: What sets me apart is my 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and the genuine love and attention I give to every pet. I have a dog of my own named Lucy, a Beagle/Boston Terrier mix, and my siblings and I share the responsibility of feeding her, taking her on walks, keeping her active, and giving her plenty of love and affection. In the past when Lucy has been sick, I was responsible for taking her to the vet and giving her medication. I have also cared for several of my friends dogs while they are at work, including taking them on walks, feeding them, checking in on them, and spending quality time with them. I have experience being around both puppies and adult dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I am reliable, patient, responsible, and committed to making sure every pet in my care is safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I will follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your fur baby is in good hands while you're away. I am currently a part-time elementary school substitute teacher, so my schedule can vary from week to week. I typically receive my substitute assignments 1–2 weeks in advance, which allows me to plan ahead and know which days I will be available. On days when I am not substituting, I would love to dedicate my time to caring for your pets. I am generally available Monday through Friday from as early as 6 AM to 7 PM, depending on my school schedule. I’m hoping to make pet care a fun and rewarding side job while providing reliable, loving care for your furry family members. When caring for a pet in their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine and the instructions provided by their owner. I will make sure they have fresh food and water, take them for their scheduled walks or potty breaks, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I will also make sure their environment is safe and clean before I leave. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, habits, and specific needs. If they need medication or have any special instructions, I will carefully follow the owner's directions. I will also send updates and photos during my visit so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for while you're away.

About: I am a dog mom of 2. I have been caring for my oldest dog for about 9 years now. I trained my two dogs on my own. I am currently working from home, so my work schedule is extremely flexible. I am available in the afternoon and evenings to go on dog walks. There are a lot of nearby parks in my area. I like to be in nature so I do on long walks daily, and would love to have a furry companion with me.

About: I recently had a 90lb black lab, I went through the puppy stages with him up until he was 4 years old. We took a couple of puppy training classes where we learned the importance of crate training, walking on a leash, and proper etiquette. I dogsit and overnight sit my friends puppies - Labrador doodle, and pitbull mix when she’s out of town and my mother’s two chihuahuas. I am currently a full time work from home professional and will have time to play with your pups in the early mornings, during my lunch break and evenings. I am available for boarding on the weekends and during the weekdays after 5:30 pm or I can stay in your home if you allow me to use your wifi and a “quiet” place to work alongside your pup. When I care for your pets in your home, I will make sure to provide them with a safe space. I would prefer that you have a fenced in yard if you would like me to take them out in your yard for potty or playing. If not, then I would take them out on a leash to use the potty. I will provide lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I understand dogs boundaries as well and will give them space if needed.

About: I've taken care of dogs since early childhood, my first dog's name was Macho. I've learned to be responsible, caring and dependable to ensure a loving growth from my pet. I've also been the go - to friend for caring for pets when a coworker decides to go on vacation. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a little exercise, or some company while you're away, I'm certainly happy to help. I'm currently working part-time, so I have lots of free time over the weekend to offer care for your pet. I'm extremely lenient and if needed can come to a compromise to suit your needs as well! Being the eldest child I have lots of experience in remaining aware of my environments when out in public. I can affirm to you that safety is my utmost priority. Your pet will be treated as my own.

“Jacky was excellent!! Our dog Tulsa took to her right away and it was obvious how much much experience she has with dogs. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!”

“Thanks again Calvin. She is knocked out :)”

“Nicole is very responsible, communicates well and is flexible in accommodating requests. Plus my dog loves her.”

James P.

“Cristian is great! We needed some help with lunchtime walks 3x a week for a couple months after a foot surgery, and we feel so lucky to have found Cristian. He is super communicative, took great pics every visit, and wrote up thorough notes about our girl. He is super patient with our high energy girl, and would even jog with her on some days to tire her out! We highly recommend Cristian and will definitely be reaching out to him in the future when we need a dogwalker!”

About: I have taken care of family pets my whole life, no pets are allowed in my household so I have taken every opportunity to interact with and care for animals outside of my home. I make sure to keep up with their needs while also providing them an enjoyable environment! I work from home so I am able to relocate wherever there is WiFi connection, the work isn’t too demanding so I am able to care for pets immediately. I work 8:00 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday and have 24/7 availability! I have an hour lunch break and am also available anytime after work and on weekends! I cannot have animals in my home so being in a clients home is best for me. I adhere to all instruction given by owners and follow the schedules set for the animal. I am open to entertaining and watching after the animal at all hours!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13, mainly my own, but I’ve also taken care of friend’s and family friend’s dogs in these past 3 years, so I understand the anxiety or fear of leaving a part of your family in the care of someone that isn’t you and won’t treat your pet like you will. That’s why I always adjust and accommodate my services to every pet’s needs. When it comes to basic care of pets, I always take puppies and dogs on walks at whichever time of day that they need to go out, always making sure to bring snacks and water so they always stay hydrated and healthy. I make sure they have enough playtime inside and outside so they don’t get bored and are entertained. I understand that not every dog wants to play or can’t move too much, so I of course adjust these activities to accommodate every pet’s individual needs so they’re always comfortable and happy. I also have experience with senior care, specifically giving dogs the medicines they need at the intended hours of the day or night. It goes without saying that my main priority are the pets in my care so I also make sure to always check up on every pet at different hours and times, rarely leaving them out of my sight (while also keeping my distance if they’re resting) to ensure they’re always okay. I work part-time remotely since I finished university in March of 2024. So I have no issues with times and days that will work best for you and your pets! I care for pets in client’s homes by making sure they’re never missing anything, from food, water, toys, time to go to the bathroom, medicines if they take them, etc… I make sure pets understand I’m simply there as an aid for them and someone they can play with if they choose to! I’m simply there to ensure every pet is taken care of while also having time to play and give them their space, after all, it’s their home and they need to feel the most comfortable and safe in their own space.

About: I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs and other pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and providing plenty of love and attention. I’m also continuing my education in animal health, behavior, biology, and marine biology, so caring for and understanding animals is something I’m truly passionate about. I currently have open availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide walks, drop-ins, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s normal routine to make sure they receive consistent, dependable care. I live in an apartment, but your pet will still get plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment. I’m happy to provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will always respect your space and follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide.
