Dog Walking Wilmington

About: I have experience giving medications (pills, liquids, ear/eye drops) as well as experience with senior and small dogs especially. Senior care is my strength but I love dogs of all ages. I work from home part time and am home all day Friday-Monday. There are no children or pets in the home so I am able to provide my undivided attention. Your dog will be inside my home most of the day as I do not have a yard. I do however have a large park/lake across the street that I frequent that is great for walks.

“Paula was professional and great with my dogs. She took really good care of them on their walks. Thank you. I will hire again in the future.”

“I had a last minute request to walk and feed Tofu and Sky was able to accommodate it, which was a big relief. He arrived promptly, was very communicative throughout the process and asked questions to make sure Tofu gets the best care. Also sent me lots of photos. Great experience and definitely highly recommend Sky!”

About: I worked as a vet tech for 6 years and dog grooming for 4 years. Ive had dogs my whole life. I can't wait to meet your family member! I love walking and what's better than walking? Walking with a loving friend of the family. I will drop everything for a dog in need. I always make sure to keep open communication with the owners and other family members. Also I love sending little photos or videos of us :)

About: I’ve had dogs mainly growing up and have now been a dog dad for almost 3 years. Love my little guy and know how much fury friends mean to their parents. I’m also very weary of who I trust with my little guy so ask any and all questions you need to to feel at ease 😊 Im in the military as an instructor so my schedule changes from class to class but I generally know two weeks in advance if I’ll be available. I’m available for drop in visits and walks. I have a big yard and a little bull terrier named scrappy who is very friendly but you don’t have to worry about anything happening to your dog because I am doing in home drop ins and walks. In an emergency I am willing to help someone out though, just let me know what you need.

About: I have a special places in my heart for animals and can’t wait to share that love with your pets! I have always adopted my own dogs from the animal shelter and have experience with all types of temperament’s. I am also an avid runner with my own dogs and happy to take yours for a run as well if a walk isn’t enough for their energy needs. Since we can’t adopt any more dogs into our family at the moment, I joined Rover as a way to have more dogs in my life! I work full time from home but have a pretty flexible schedule to take my lunch break at any time during the day depending on when your pet needs me. While I will only be providing outside the home services, I always make sure to treat people’s homes as I would my home. I make sure to leave it better than I found it and alert the client if I noticed anything that needed their attention immediately.

About: Having a passion for animals had allowed me to be able to adapt to the needs of each pet I encounter. From ferrets to good ol' doggos, I am comfortable with all sorts of pets. I'm a Student Parent and being able to help pet parents in-between class and parenting myself is a perfect fit in my schedule. It allows me to control my schedule. Currently I am unable to keep pets in my home. My services are pet sitting or walking. Thank you for this understanding and I hope to work with you and your pet soon!

“Ivy has been consistently punctual arriving to our home to pick up my dog. I really appreciate her.”

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life and am experienced dog owner. My friends and family rely on me to pet sit for them when they are away. Experienced with young pets and senior pets! I work 12 hour shifts 3 days out of the week and am available to help with your pet needs throughout the rest of the week. I ensure that my pets safety is maintained at all times. On walks I ensure to access and scan the areas I am walking through for any hazards. I also ensure I am in an environment that does not put my dog or other dogs at risk.

About: My dogs are my life, and I want to ensure your dogs are well taken care of while you’re away. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs, from puppies to senior dogs, and dogs with timely medications. I had my first dog at 9 years old for 15 amazing years. My second dog, I’ve had since she was a puppy and has crossed the rainbow at 16 years old. She was also on specific timed medication for the last 3 years. I also take care of my brothers 2 dogs. I am currently unemployed, and I’ve been working on freelance work projects from home. I have plenty of time to care for dog and I am flexible with time. I have a fenced backyard your dog can spend time in. I also have a small fenced area in my home they can stay in comfortably, and separately from the other dogs. All preferences can be catered to your pet such as if you want your dogs away from other pets or if you would like them outdoors more that inside, etc.

About: I’ve had my dog, Milo, since he was a puppy and I basically take him anywhere he is welcomed. As someone who was scared of dogs as a child, I made it a priority to understand my own dog. I learned plenty about dog enrichment and body language, which has helped Milo become a well-adjusted and socialized dog. My approach to dog walking is allowing the pups to obtain enrichment through walking with brief stops for quick training. All bookings will help fund my dog’s dental cleaning, so thank you! 🫶🏽 Available for walks almost any time during the week, so long as you book in advance. 🙂‍↕️ Will likely walk my dog along with your dog, but let me know if your dog prefers to fly solo. Milo and I take walks every 4-8 hours. All pups are welcome to make themselves at home and are allowed on the furniture. There’s a balcony if your pup wants to sunbathe with Milo. We have a crate that your dog can use, if need be.

About: I have pet sit for friends while they are on vacation. I have taken care of about 4 dogs. I have lived with a dog for about 2 years I work part time so i have around 3 free days a week while the others i work schedule i can comfortably have time to go check in on your fur babies and work ! I can make sure your dog comfortably gets the care and attention they need while you’re away. Whether that is walks or just playing with them for a bit so they aren’t lonely

About: I specialize in gentle, reliable care for small dogs, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, detail oriented, and attentive to each dog’s pace, comfort, and routine. I focus on calm, stress free walks in suburban and beachside South Bay areas so your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. My primary profession is legal videography, which means my schedule can vary week to week and isn’t a fixed 9–5. Because of this, I maintain flexible availability and communicate clearly in advance about openings. When I’m available, I’m fully present and committed to providing reliable, focused care. I provide calm, attentive care in your pet’s familiar home environment, following all instructions carefully to maintain routine and comfort. I prioritize safety during walks, remain mindful of surroundings, and treat every home with professionalism and respect

“Pearl was amazing! She dropped in before our first booking to meet me and my dog, Lola. Pearl fed and walked Lola and sent photos of our happy pooch! Thank you so much for taking great care of Lola. We had peace of mind while out for the night and came home to a happy pooch!!”

About: I have been a sitter for years. It’s just something I love to do because I love animals :) Once I got a fur family of my own (Dog & Cat) I thought it would be fun to be a sitter and do something I love. I always go the extra mile and create content, if the client approves. I work as a music producer and have tons of time for my animal friends! They make my days better 🖤 I love meeting new people and caring for their animal family. It’s just something that brightens my days. I’m very caring and attentive. Always watching out for them to make sure they’re safe and happy. Knowing they’re properly cared for is my top priority.

About: I grew up with dogs since I was a child. I grew up with Shiba Inus, so I know very well about them. I currently don't have any pets as my girl passed away from old age last year and haven't gotten a new furbaby since she passed. I have been a professional dog walker/boarder/care taker for 5 years before pandemic and had many recurring clients when I was in the Bay area. I love walking them and always give 1 on 1 attention. Some of the compliments I get all the time are how detailed my updates are with many pictures and videos. I personally love to take many pictures and videos of my pets and kids, so I just take a bunch when I walk them or have them over my place. I always make sure they have water (iced water when it gets hot) before I leave with treats (unless pawrents say otherwise). I always update with their potty details too as I know as a pawrent that you want to make sure your furbaby is doing well. If I feel something is wrong, I immediately contact the pawrent. If they made a mess, I try to clean up the best I can before leaving as I know how tiring that can be unless told otherwise. Another compliment I get is how well I am with senior dogs or dogs with medical needs. The dog I grew up with was with me since he was 3mo old until he passed (15.5yrs old). He had many health complications the last 3yrs of his life that I learned how to give every medicine that you can think of including eye meds, pills, syringes, etc. I always have pill pockets, so just in case they don't want the meds in their food, I can always wrap with pill pockets instead. I am very keen, so once I get to know your furbaby, I will be able to see any changes or sense a difference and will let you know. Since my dog was very quiet, we missed a lot of signs from him although I had a doubt as a kid. I don't want that happening to anybody or any dogs. I am also certified in pet first aid and pet cpr. I take pride in as a caretaker and love to be your furbaby's new buddy to hang out with! I currently work at home, so I can be with your furbaby all the time even when my kids are home. I don't mind taking them for walks or even to the park after work as long as weather permits Dogs are free to roam in kitchen/living room area and will have access to unlimited water. Treats will depend on what permission I get from each pawrent. They will never be alone with my kids without any adult supervision as I know how rough kids can be. My kids are taught, but are still too young, so I will never leave them alone with any dogs. I never left them alone with my senior girl even when she became weak and ill with her last few months of her life.

About: I have experience caring for both my own dogs and my neighbors' dogs. I am familiar with both small and larger breeds, and I have worked with older dogs that require extra attention and care. My empathetic nature makes me well-suited to take care of your beloved pups. I am currently working part-time, so walking your pups would be more than just a job—it would be a hobby that allows me to spend time with beautiful animals. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are top priorities in my pet care approach. Whether caring for pets in my own home or at a client's residence, I ensure a secure environment by implementing measures such as regular safety checks, secure enclosures, and pet-proofing spaces. I maintain open communication with clients to understand their pets' specific needs, preferences, and any health concerns. This personalized care extends to providing a clean and stimulating environment with enriching activities tailored to each pet's temperament and energy level.

About: My pet sitting days started out when my sister’s friend needed someone to watch his new beagle puppy Charlie. My first step into this field started at 18 where I spent 4yrs working for a boarding/daycare business that offers care for all dog breeds and sizes from puppies to seniors as well as cats in private luxury kitty condos. There I completed 2 courses and became ✅Certified✅ in reading dog body language and communication. Promoted to 👩🏻‍✈️Shift Lead👩🏻‍✈️ and responsible for all food/medication prep and administration. I became well known for being able to get those who wouldn’t always eat to eat 😋 🔹Trained in administering 💊Medications After the daycare I held a ⚕️Veterinary Kennel Assistant position as well as a 🐾Professional Dog Pack Walker/Pet Care Provider position with separate companies for a brief window period before I decided working from home through Rover was a better route while my first born was still young. 🐣 Since then I’ve had a second child and spent the past 2yrs working as 🫧Bather on and off at a local grooming shop for dogs, cats, birds & bunnies 🐶🐱🦜🐰 I’ve taken a break away from working regular hours to focus on my youngest a development as well as my eldest as he’s on the spectrum 🧩 Available full-time for your Pet Sitting/Dog Walking needs! ⏰🫶🏻😊 🩵Please note that I do have young children (ages 10 & 2) they’re great with animals (: 🩵 🔻Cannot Board any aggressive pets🔻 ❇️Can Accommodate❇️ ✔️Can provide Overnights in your own home for larger breeds & those who do better in their own space 👽✨ I keep the day going with what things need doing that day and would take joy in having your pets be a part of our family. I live in a spall apt near the Stonehaven area on NextDoor. I have a vehicle and if okay’d can transfer or walk from my apt to the park to provide enrichment/exercise if needed/requested. Potty breaks are always on leash.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of experience in dog walking, pet sitting, and cat care. I started pet sitting in middle school for family, friends, and neighbors! I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I also have hands-on experience with newborn puppies. I’m happy to care for your cats too! Feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and all the love they need while you're gone. I work from home so I can take your pet to the bathroom whenever they need, take them on walks, and play with them all day :) I live in an apartment but it is very pet friendly. There are many places for dogs to run around or go to the bathroom.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 6 years, my own dog, my brother’s 2 dogs, chicken and cats. I trained my dog from just YouTube and he is perfect. I’ve started to watch my neighbors dogs this summer, going for long walk and regular care. I’m currently on summer break so I have too much free time. I spend my days at the mall or at my brothers house volunteering to watch his dogs, even when it’s just for an hour. I have a fenced area and I’m very strong and fast so I can catch any dog if somehow the leash magically disappears. At home the door stays locked.
