Dog Walking Whitpain Woods

About: My pet care experience goes far beyond simply loving animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, fish, horses, small mammals, and wildlife, and I recently earned my M.S. in Wildlife Science. I have worked as a dog walker, a pet/house/plant sitter, an animal research technician caring for mice, rats, rabbits, and dogs, and as a veterinary assistant at a cat and dog vaccine clinic. I also have experience drawing blood and administering medication to a variety of domestic and wildlife animals, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and paying close attention to each animal’s needs. I am very much a cat person, too, and I understand that cats have different needs than dogs, including patience, quiet companionship, respect for boundaries, and careful attention to subtle changes in behavior. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behavior, and I enjoy helping pets feel safe, whether they need a good walk, playtime, calm companionship, or plenty of cuddles. I currently work remotely part-time, which allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule for pet care. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, and plant care throughout the week. While I am not able to provide boarding in my own home, I am happy to provide overnight care in your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency by carefully following each client’s instructions and keeping pets in their familiar routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and household rules are handled with care. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, and behavior, and I provide calm, respectful care that helps them feel secure while their owner is away.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and my genuine passion for their well-being. Since I was 5 years old, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, fish, and more, giving me a strong understanding of different pets' needs and personalities. In the past 2 years I have been working at a dog wellness/ grooming center, where I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I also previously volunteered with the Elmwood Park Zoo as well as a local cat shelter which helped deepen my knowledge of animal care and behavior. I'm comfortable caring for puppies & kittens , adult dogs & cats , and senior pets, and I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and following each pet's unique routine. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and care while their owners are away. I now work remotely, so I am super flexible with my hours , I’m pretty much available anytime. (with notice if it’s going to be late ) Your pet's safety and comfort come first. Working in dog wellness has given me experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I provide reliable care, follow routines closely, and treat every dog as if they were my own.

“I feel so much less stressed about getting home from work on time knowing that Lacey will take care of Mabel, even in the crazy heat wave! Thank you Lacey!”

About: I’m a lifelong pet lover who grew up in a home filled with cats and dogs—I’ve always loved cuddling and caring for them. My father was a veterinarian at a pet hospital in Korea, where I gained hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals for nearly 10 years. This included administering medications and caring for pets with special needs. I also have experience volunteering at a pet shelter and working with a rescue team as part of my pre-med activities. Currently working in the medical field, I bring both compassion and practical care skills to every animal I look after. I’m available at home all day on weekends and can provide attentive care, including home visits to feed, cuddle, and spend quality time with your pets. I’m also able to drive to clients’ homes and offer home boarding if needed, ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. 🦮🐈‍⬛With over 10 years of experience at a veterinary hospital—where I shadowed my father, a veterinarian—I’m confident in caring for pets with special needs, administering medications, and understanding animal behavior. I currently have one cat who gets along wonderfully with both cats and dogs, as she previously lived with dogs too. 🐱I’ve had my cat, Sibong, for four years and have never missed a day of dedicated play—15 minutes, four times a day. I’m especially skilled at keeping cats active, engaged, and happy. 🐶While I’m a cat person at heart, I’m equally passionate about dogs. I volunteered for three years at the Philadelphia Animal Shelter, where I gained extensive experience walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. This experience taught me how to read canine body language, handle various behavioral needs, and provide affectionate care. I enjoy walking, cuddling, and spending quality time with dogs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved.

“Mikaela is so sweet and patient with my dog!! She was able to handle her skittish behavior and her reactive behaviors as well! Definitely would recommend her”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had seven dogs and six cats, so caring for pets was a part of my everyday life. From feeding and grooming to playtime, walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention, I learned early on what it takes to help pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for mice, turtles, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I’ve always had pets throughout my life, and caring for animals has never felt like a chore, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I also spend time feeding and observing backyard birds, which reflects my love and appreciation for all kinds of animals. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or another beloved pet, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Although I have an unfenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. We also have a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks that are perfect for walks and exercise. If your pet is crate trained or you prefer they be crated when unattended or at bedtime, I’m happy to accommodate that routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats around my whole life and knew from a very young age that i was meant to be apart of changing an animals life in a positive and proactive way. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I am also a veterinary technician! so pet care is apart of my everyday routine. I have 2 very friendly dogs and 2 very friendly cats that get along with anyone and anything. I can walk them around my neighborhood!

About: I used to have a Shih-tzu named Eris who was a very sweet girl with lots of energy. I currently look after a French Bulldog from time to time who I absolutely love. I like working with small dogs/lap dogs but I can work with bigger dogs too. I work from home, and I have plenty of time to play with your dog or take them on walks. I spend most of my day ar my desk, and I would welcome the extra encouragement to go outside and take the dog for a walk. I live with two other family members who love dogs, so your dog will never go without attention. If your dog is small, then I will happily let them sit on my bed while I work, and I'll reach over to give them pets whenever they want. Larger dogs are welcome to lie in a dog bed by my desk, or downstairs on the couch with me.

“She’s a great walker. I’m trying to cancel the other walks, but I don’t see a way to modify or cancel. The pup doesn’t need a dog walker any longer.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs. I have a 12-year-old diabetic chocolate Lab who is not just our family dog, but my best friend, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and giving pets extra care and attention. Caring for a senior dog with medical needs has taught me responsibility and how important routines are. I’ve also dog sat for family and friends many times. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are getting plenty of care, attention, and love while they’re away. I am currently unemployed, so I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, bathroom breaks, or simply keeping them company, I can easily adjust my day around their needs. In my home or your home, I understand that every pet is different. So I am happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, or special care needs. My main focus is making sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible!

“Sofia is an excellent care taker for my dog. She’s wonderful, sends me updates and her communication is outstanding. I love that I get to see photos of my dog especially when I’m traveling. Keeps my heart at ease”

About: I have had family dogs all growing up! In my senior year of college I adopted a dog of my own which allowed me to understand the importance of training, taking care of dogs, and showing them unconditional love! I currently work a part-time job that is pretty flexible, so I will be able to meet all of your pets needs this summer!! I have been an animal lover my whole life and I know how it feels to trust someone else with your fur baby, so I am able to accommodate any needs that you and your pet may have to make them feel comfortable!

About: I don't have any crazy special certifications or experience but I have loved dogs, my entire life I had a beagle growing up names snickers.. i was young but I swear that was the most stubborn dog ever. Due to school and work, I was not able to get my own.Dog until I was in my 30s. Izzy is my ride or die soul dog. For the last 5 years, I have been fostering and volunteering with various rescues in the area. When I have some downtime. But day to day i am a working professional single dog mom seeking additional puppy play dates... for me and my pup Izzy. I honestly just do rover on the side as an excuse to get off my behind and play with some local fur friends but also for my pup Izzy to get out bc she is sick of me now that I wfh full time unless i have business trip. Depending on your location or needs I am happy to schedule my day accordingly for walks, stop ins, etc. - at the end of the day very flexible with sufficient notice or schedule permitting within 5 mile radius from east norriton. I can only board or house sit if our dogs get along so reach out for a meet n greet. Walks/check ins I can do solo. In the summer of 2026 i started a new job working from 100% unless traveling. Need accountabilibudies to. Help me step away from desk through the day. Also could use some extra money to cover my own dog care for when I need to travel for work Important to assess the needs of all dogs during a meet and greet prior to the first visit. When I am out and about the dogs are always leashed. If I have a dog staying with me, I never leave then out with my dog.I would separate them with a crate or a bedroom door. i would also feed separately

“I just starting a new job and was not going to be able to come home at lunch to walk my pups myself, Rover made it super fast in helping me locate Julain. Within hours after requesting service he was at my apartment walking Bella and Tanner. Couldn’t have been anymore painless!! Thank You!!”

About: I'm very friendly, loving and playful. I pay attention to details so I can pick up when an animal is in the mood for play or chill time. My schedule is open therefore I have the time to walk the little fur pet around and take him or her to a local dog park if you're comfortable with that idea. I have always loved animals since I was a child and have always had a pet in my life. I talk to animals because even though they don't understand, I believe they should get all levels of attention. They are really are our lifeline I believe so you must show delicate care to these wonderful creatures. They are after all, a blessing. I love my fur babies and will treat yours as if they are my own!

About: Hi! I’ve live with dogs since I was six and am very comfortable with big and small dogs. I’ve trained puppies from 8 weeks of age and have also worked with very sick dogs and have experience giving medication including injections and fluids. I am a huge animal lover and I know how hard it is to find someone you trust to provide care for your pet. Trust in me to give your dog boatloads of lovin and create a safe environment for them. Currently switching to part time work to create a more flexible work schedule for me and my fur baby! As long as there’s notice I can make myself available any day or time that’s needed. I have a multi room apartment that can be sectioned off easily with access to big walking trails right outside. Plus I have a fully vaccinate and well behave Mini Aussie to keep your babies company.
