Dog Walkers in Westport, NY

“Wonderful communication and treated my pup like her own. Prior to our first visit, Lorrie offered to come to our home and meet our pup, we reviewed expectations and guidelines. She reassured me after the first work with pictures, videos and a memo. Would rebook for walks and more! 🐶🐾💛”

“5 stars! Bridget was flexible with my schedule and communication was smooth and steady. She was great with my golden retriever Layla. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Austin has taken great care of my dog whenever I go out of town, he takes them on walks and treats them as his own. He has a fenced in yard which makes morning bathroom breaks easy and he loves my pets like his own!”

About: I love taking care of animals. I have had dogs and cats my whole life. They are our fur babies after all and I treat them as such. I am currently at home full time so dogs are not left alone. I do have a super friendly and cuddly 3 year bison/poodle mix named Teddy. I have fenced in backyard where dogs can run around and play. I do take dogs for frequent walks and we have lots of play time.

“Karen is the best pet sitter! She will spoil your fur babies! She's great with any kind of pet she's a loving and caring person! She runs her own mini farm with cats, dogs, Guinea pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, pigs, rabbits, and fish! Each animal has there own area to run around!”

“Zee is a wonderful hard working individual with a vibrant personality. I can attest to Zee being a responsible individual who takes wonderful care of her two dogs. I would trust Zee with my dogs and know that she will do whatever it takes to fulfill her responsibilities!”

About: I have always had dogs my whole life and I love to be around animals of all kinds! I have worked at a kennel and a small animal hospital, where I had the opportunity to handle and play with all sorts of sizes, breeds and temperaments of dogs. I love going on dog walks, since it’s so special to be able to interact with a dog in a more relaxed environment. I think that exercise is a crucial part of a dogs life and I would love to help anyone that may not have quite enough time to get their dog out and about as much as they would like to. I have an extremely flexible schedule! I am a college student who's home for the summer and looking to spend some quality time with some furry friends! I can easily work around whatever schedule works best for you. I am happy to accommodate any specific requirements and needs your pet may have! Having grown up with and worked around all types of animals, I understand that every pet has different needs and how important it is for them to have a routine.

About: Hi, I’m Bethany! I’ve been living, loving, walking, and taking care of animals for most of my life. I started walking and taking care of my neighbors dogs in eighth grade. I would love to care of your animal(s) and show them some love! I know we will be a great match! 🐾❣️ I am currently working part-time as needed for a family with their 5 year old. Thus, my schedule is flexible and can be accommodating to yours. I care for animals in a way that works best for them along with whatever their owner specifies. I unfortunately cannot house your animals in my own home due to an existing animal, but I would enter your space with the same care that you do.

“Can’t speak highly enough of Mark. Reliable, communicative, gracious, and kind. Thanks again for helping me out with my pups, Mark! We all appreciate it!!”

About: Have had pets since I was a child, over 20 years. I am a current pet and livestock owner. I have dogs, goats, bunnies and chickens. I am available most week days and every other weekend. I can be flexible, but it would have to work around my full time job. I am willing to drop in and walk your dog for as long as you'd like. Will play catch, ball and run them when possible.

“Katelyn was great with Ozark! Gave him lots of play time and he was tired. She was very receptive to my instructions and genuinely cared for my dog. would love to rebook in the future.”

About: I have worked at two doggy daycares, and this experience has given me the ability to understand what your dog needs and how to keep your best friend safe, happy, and healthy. I have a wealth of experience in pet care. Throughout my life, I have been responsible for taking care of my two dogs at home, as well as living with eight cats for a period of six months. Currently, I am a proud owner of a cat. Additionally, I have been caring for non-domestic animals, such as chickens, for the past eight years. Moreover, I have the opportunity to work with large groups of dogs on a daily basis. It's truly a fulfilling experience to provide care and support to these wonderful creatures. Animals require more mental stimulation than people may think. Just like humans, they thrive on mental stimulation. That's why it's crucial for animals to have social interactions with both humans and other animals. Providing exercise and outdoor time is essential for their well-being. That's why I always make sure to take my dogs and cats on regular walks. Additionally, I prioritize their overall health by ensuring they have plenty of nourishing food. It's all about keeping our furry friends happy and healthy!

About: I’ve had animals of all kinds my whole life including dogs, cats, horses, fish, turtles and bunnies. I know how important it is to know that your pets are safe when you're away and I strive to provide the same kind of love & care I would expect for my own fur babies when I travel. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible which makes it easy to provide pet care. My life is pretty laid back so I find that I have the free time to offer services! For my own kitties, Calvin & Hobbes, I feed them on a pretty regular schedule between 8am-9am and then again at 5pm-6pm. We get play time in every day and snuggling in every other hour. They are my #1 priority and I would make your pets #1 priority when providing care services in the home. This would involve feeding, water changes, litter scooping by request, dog walking, play time, affection and whatever your pets needs are!

“Alan came through on VERY short notice for us. We were out-of-town in VT and realized we would have to leave Ruckus, our 6 month old pup, for longer than we ever had. Alan took care of us in a pinch and saved the day. Ruckus-the-dog liked him and they took a great big walk together.”

About: I have had dogs all of my life! I volunteered at the humane society as a foster care provider and found homes for many dogs during this time. I worked with a veterinarian for the past ten years and provided care for his dogs. I am very active and can also run with your dog if you have a high energy breed such as a husky. I will care for your dogs as if they were my own and can also groom, massage, administer medications, recommend holistic nutritional changes, and provide any additional services that your furry companion may need. I can bring your pup to obedience classes, vet visits, or grooming appointments! I will also work with dogs that have issues such as socialization issues, manner problems, or anything else we may discuss. I currently work from home, so I am able to watch the furry friends all day. They can have a private space in the home, in the yard, or join the pack. I can customize preferences to include a hike, trail run, short walks, pick-up/drop off at your pets location, light grooming, etc. In my home I have three dogs, and they can be separate or play together if preferred. i have a large fenced yard. There is also a separate studio with a kennel if needed. If visiting a clients home, I will adjust to clients preferences and instructions.

“Jaime was awesome!! Loved watching my pup bounce around when she arrived, and appreciated the updates during/after the walks. Will definitely book again!!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was twelve years old. I love hanging out with dogs and getting to know their quirks and personalities. I recently adopted my first rescue, Cabot, who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. I’m happy to bring him along for walks or play dates with your dog, depending on their preference. I have a good grasp of puppy training and believe in positive reinforcement. I’m currently waiting for my seasonal job to start in the spring, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I have flexible availability to meet your established or last minute needs. I prioritize the safety and care of your pet over everything. I will stick to their daily schedule, make sure they get plenty of exercise, and will leave your home as I found it.

“Great communication, I felt confident leaving my fur baby in her care.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs on and off for years but have had dogs all of my life. I have given played with big packs of pups and done solo play times as well. I have a flexible schedule that will let me have more availability for your fluffy friends to get out and play and exercise. I’m looking for a long term dog caring commitment to start off my new year. I am not able to do home care ( in my home) at this time. I do have two wonderful dogs who love to have play dates at puppy parks and go for long walks.

About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!
