Dog Walking West Liberty

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life, and have done some dogsitting and dog walking before. I’ll admit it’s been a bit since I had to focus on school work for my psych degree, but now that I have to wait till fall for grad school, I figured now is the time to help out some furry friends! I’m an animal lover at heart and am not only interested in, but willing to help with any accommodations! Our pets deserve the best after all! :) I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I have plenty of time for any pet care. I tend to be more of a night owl so I can help cats when they’re more active at night. I tend to work best with detailed instructions. I don’t want to disturb any routine and want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible.

“Kaylee is amazing. Thank you, Kaylee! I felt so reassured knowing my mom's dachshund was receiving excellent care while we were away. Remi loved Kaylee too. I can't wait until I need Kaylee again. It's so nice to know someone is there to bail me out when I get the responsibility of pet sitting myself. Kaylee minded all the instructions for this old dog and her issue-laden back. You will be so happy that you picked Kaylee to snuggle your beloved pets.”

About: I have grown up with having dogs as pets my whole life. I grew up on a farm so I have experience in caring for livestock as well. I have a very flexible schedule this summer including weekdays and weekends as I am home from college for summer break. Please feel free to reach out! I have been around many types of dogs so I have experience with all types. Based on what the owner wants to be done/ the dogs needs I’m happy to help.

“Great communication!”

About: Working at a Veterinary Hospital before going to college absolutely solidified my love for animals and caring for them! I love learning their unique traits and I can’t wait to bond with your pets! I’m currently a full time student at JMU but I’m looking to add pet sitting into my routine! With warm weather coming up, I know how important it is to find a reliable sitter for vacations! I can’t wait to meet your pets! Caring for your pets in the safety of your home is important to me! Allowing them to show me around and playing with their favorite toys is so exciting!

“Caleb is personable, friendly, and energetic enough to keep up with our lively puppy. Stella would always return her walks with Caleb happy, joyful, and yet ready for a nice puppy nap. Caleb even took the extra step to come over for an introductory visit to meet Stella, get acquainted, and talk us through any concerns/answer questions. Highly recommend using Caleb & Julianna.”

About: I grew up on a small farm. I currently have four cats and I am experienced in taking care of litter pans, feeding and providing love to cats. I currently also have two dogs. I love spending time with animals and I love walking so this new adventure seems like a great fit for my lifestyle.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and I have 2 pets of my own. I feed and take them on walks every day I have 2 pets of my own. A dog named Reese and a cat named Sawyer. I am able to come to someone's home also. I also work in the evenings Wednesday through Sunday so I am able to care for animals in the mornings and all day on the days that I am off from my regular job which is Monday and Tuesday. If you need an overnight sitter I can do that as well. My schedule at work is usually 7 hrs and I would be able to come stay a night after I get off work. We can discuss that at a later time upon booking if needed. I take my dog out on the leash because of the place that I live at doesn't have a fenced in yard. Watch them closely when not on leash. I also have kennels that can separate them if needed.

“Max is very happy with Kerry! She is doing a fantastic job with him and I'm glad we connected togther”

“Kate did a great job walking my dog. She had a good rapport with my pup, she communicated very well, and she ensured my dog’s safety and happiness. I would definitely recommend Kate as a dog walker.”

About: As a college student studying Zoology, animals and their care are more than a side hustle or a hobby: they’re my world. Apart from my academic coursework in animal care and welfare, I have more than eight years of personal care and volunteer experience with numerous animals, including but not limited to: cats, dogs, horses, rats and mice, hamsters, snakes, various types of lizards and amphibians, goats, chickens, sheep, cattle, and even invertebrates such as tarantulas and scorpions. Rest assured, I’ll never discriminate against your furry pal! I have experience giving oral medication, both liquid and pill, as well as insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids. I also have experience caring for elderly animals — like my 18 year old cat, Maya! I can provide feeding, brushing, hoof care, walking, exercise, medication, play time, turning out, litterbox cleaning and much more! I have a driver’s license and my own transportation, and my hours and pay are flexible. I am willing to drive 60-90 minutes depending on needs. As mentioned prior, I have extensive prior experience volunteering at various shelters, vets and farms assisting with animal care, as well as my own personal experience caring for a diverse array of pets. I am happy to gather recommendations from organizations I work with. While caring for your pet or pets, I will regularly keep in contact with you and update you with both text and photos (if desired), along with keeping a dedicated spreadsheet of feeding/watering/grooming times and overall health to guarantee your peace of mind. I am capable of providing pet care across a flexible schedule. I can provide early care from 6-9 AM in the morning and any time after 4:20 PM on weekdays, as well as 24 hour care on weekends and overnight stays if needed. I am able to care for pets in a wide variety of ways thanks to expensive experience. Walking, feeding, litter-box cleaning, playtime, as well as insulin/subcutaneous fluid injections are all possible. I can also administer medication orally. Daily checkups as well as overnight stays are both possible.

I've had quite the experience dealing with dogs in need. One of our dearly departed GSP "Becca” had neurological issues & needed a variety of medications.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’m a mom of twins, a proud rescue dog owner, and a frequent puppy foster. I know how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family — and that’s exactly what I do. Your dog will always get plenty of love, care, and attention while in my hands. I have open availability and a very flexible schedule. My availability starts as early as 9am and remains open throughout the day with a short break from 3pm-5pm. I can also be available to early morning walks upon request. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like part of the family! I make sure they have lots of attention, play, and love — plus a cozy place to rest. For visits or walks at a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routines and your space, making sure everything is just the way you like it. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is being well cared for.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. From a German Shephard, to Labs, Goldens, Huskies, Shih Tzu, I have had them all. I have experience giving my Red Fox Lab, Big Boy Butters insulin shots, since he is diabetic. My Goldens, Maggie and Ollie, love playing tennis ball and going for walks. Daisy, my Shih Tzu, thinks that she is a Doberman even though she is only 15 pounds. They all love to wrestle. I have a fenced in yard where they can run freely. They enjoy their treats and all of the rubs they can handle. I also have experience with salt water/fresh water fish and reptiles. Just love animals. They are always happy to see you and they enjoy being loved. I am working full time but have an open ended schedule and am willing to make anything work.

About: My family's love and appreciation for animals has instilled values of pet-care, discipline, and adoration for animals within me. Throughout my life, I've always owned a dog or cat, so I've grown accustomed to animal needs and routines. My experience with fostering has taught me the individuality of a dog's needs and how pets require care that is specific to their conditions and dispositions. One of my fosters was a puppy, so I have experience with a range of dog ages. Another was a border collie, so I am familiar with high energy dogs. My parents possess strict and high standards for the pet sitters that take care of our cat and dog, which has extended to my current standards that I hold for myself. I completely understand the struggle of leaving your pets, and with this in mind I will provide loving, reliable, and trustworthy care. As a student who is on break for the winter, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Having a flexible winter schedule allows me to devote ample time and attention to your pet's needs. My years of experience with animals allow me to affectionately and quickly connect with other pets. I strive to create a calm and loving atmosphere so your pets will feel at home with me. It is my top priority to ensure your pet's happiness and safety. With my accumulated knowledge I will cater to your pets individual needs, whether that be feeding, grooming, playtime, or cuddles.

About: I have cared for and owned animals from dogs to reptiles my whole life! I have had years of experience with both small and large breeds as well as sick and elderly pets. Ived work in a veterinary emergency hospital and am also a local groomer, so I have lots of experience handling dogs of all types!! I am available all the time on Monday through Wednesday.
