Dog Walking Western Branch South

About: Hello, I have an adult cat and a 9 month old golden retriever. I have experience in training my golden, who can do basic and more complex commands (some were taught by me and by a trainer). I am okay with caring for young’s pets, and am open to giving medications or other special care that your fur babies may need :) I enjoy walking my dog and also have a cat stroller if any kitties would like some outside time! I am a full time student and barista, so I work morning shifts most days. I am typically available in the afternoons and evenings to drop-ins or walks! I care for any pet as if it is my own! I enjoy walking my dog at parks or in neighborhoods, and would do the same for other pups. I give love and pets to my cat daily, and would of course treat other cats with the same attention!

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I have been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for small, medium, and large dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having company, I am happy to provide the care and attention they need while you’re away. I am also comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Please note: My house-sitting service does not include overnight stays. I provide care throughout the day and evening and will return the following morning for continued care. If your pet requires a sitter to remain in the home overnight, I may not be the best fit for your needs. My availability is Wednesday evening through Sunday evening each week. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during that time and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I don’t currently have a pet in my home, but I have spent my life around dogs and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand how important routines are for animals, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while they are in my care.

“Jasmine picked River up for their walk at the park for the second day. Once he came home he crashed hard again. He had such a good time. Jasmine was very attentive to River and it showed in his reaction.”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and love caring for them as if they are my children. I've had puppies to senior dogs who have passed on, so I am very comfortable with any stage in a dog's life. I treat my dogs like my own children and I know how difficult it can be to find someone who cares for your pets the same way you do, but I promise you that I will care for your pets in the same way I care for my own! I am currently not working, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). Whenever you need me, I will be there. I am comfortable doing whatever you need me to do in order to take care of your pets. I can give your pets any medications they might need as well as tender loving care.

“Erin was friendly, reliable, and always respectful of both my needs and my dogs' routines while I was recovering from surgery. It was such a relief knowing my boy was in caring, dependable hands during a challenging time. I'm very grateful for her help and would happily use Erin’s services again.”

About: I have 13 years of pet care experience from owning 5 dogs. I also taken care of many dogs for friends over the years. I am constantly on the internet looking for different ways to keep dogs healthy and live a long wonderful life. I currently work part-time, which means my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily adjust my work hours to accommodate your fur baby’s needs. I’ll ensure that your furry friend is well-cared for throughout the day, including feeding, walking, playing, cuddling, and making sure they’re happy while you’re away. I will follow the instructions that are given to me very carefully because every dog is different. I do recommend having us meeting before you leave so I can bond with your fur baby with you there so they are comfortable with me. If you have a certain route you like to take your fur baby for walks or if you have a dog park where your dog can play with other dogs (if they are social) let me know! Otherwise I will walk your fur baby for a minimum of one hour and maybe even take them with me for small store runs in the area (with your permission ofc!).

My priority is to build trust with both pets and their owners, so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: HI, My name is Aly. I am able to provide a loving and caring environment for all pets. I've grown up with plenty of animals of all types and taking care of animals is something I really enjoy. I have two guinea pigs of my own and as delicate animals they require a lot of intense care, attention, and love which is how I see pets more as kids than animals. In my care they will not only be well taken care of but happy as well. I have no other pets so any pets are welcomed for boarding and sitting. I have open availability and am willing to go above and beyond for your pet. Id be happy to tell you more if you have any questions and I will try my best to fulfill any special request or care needed for the pet if needed.
