Dog Walkers in Wolf, IA

“Chloe is just a natural with dogs. She was very comfortable on her first walk with Minnie, it seemed like he has met Minnie many times. She handled everything like a pro.”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals over the course of my life. I lived nearly two decades on a farm where animals would often get dropped off and I’d care for them for the remainder of their lives. I worked at a veterinary hospital for 3 years and have 4 cats and a dog of my own. I’ve cared for many friend’s pets while they’re out of town, including both cats and dogs with medical needs. I have a passion for helping others and their furry family members! I believe all animals are deserving of our unconditional love and attention. When life calls you away, I’m happy to step in and ensure they get the utmost care. I’m experienced in giving animals medication, including insulin, and have worked with many different types of collars, leashes, and harnesses. I’ll do my absolute best to care for them in the way you prefer them to be cared for and am happy to take time to make a plan for the care that you expect. I’m also aware of signs and symptoms to look for in an emergency situation and have phone numbers and resources on hand to ensure they get the best care, with your permission. I love sending photos to my clients to show them what a great time we’re having together! Having worked full time at a veterinary hospital, care of animals and their owners was a part of my daily life! I try to accommodate all schedules to the best of my ability and am flexible with my schedule. I treat each pet and home as if it were my own. I spoil my pets and would love to do the same for yours. I work individually with you to come up with a visit plan that is tailored to your pet's needs and prioritize communications with you going forward to ensure your expectations are getting met. I relay any immediate concerns that I have during a visit by calling you or directly messaging you. Otherwise, you can expect a summary of the visit, with images, at the end of my visit with your pet(s).

About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I bring a calm, confident presence that animals naturally trust. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments—including senior pets, rescues, and animals with medical or behavioral needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, structured walks, or just quiet company, I treat every animal like family. Communication, safety, and comfort are always my priorities—and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way! I offer drop-in visits and dog walking that fit easily into your pet’s routine. I do not offer overnight care, but I’m happy to check in morning, midday, or evening to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you're out. I believe pets are family—and I treat them that way. You’ll always get clear updates, lots of photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Let me know what they love, what makes them nervous, and how I can help make things easy for both of you! I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, where they feel most safe, secure, and comfortable. I believe that animals thrive in familiar environments, and my goal is to support their routine with as little disruption as possible. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk or a drop-in visit, I always make safety my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes before and after every visit, and I keep a close eye on your pet’s body language to make sure they’re feeling calm and secure. I’m respectful of your home and space, and I clean up after myself (and your pet!) so you return to a tidy, happy environment. I take time to learn your pet’s preferences and quirks—what comforts them, what makes them nervous, and how to help them feel loved while you're away. Trust and communication matter to me, and I’ll always keep you updated with honest check-ins and sweet snapshots of your pet while you’re gone.

“Very communicative and took care of my dog while I was out of town. Knows how to deal with dogs that give new people a hard time. Great person to have watch over your dog while you are out of town”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from playful puppies to gentle seniors, energetic large breeds to cuddly lap dogs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just providing a safe and loving environment, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I love creating routines that make pets feel comfortable and happy, whether that’s a brisk morning walk, a game of fetch, or just curling up for a snuggle. I also have a 1.5-year-old mini Goldendoodle who I absolutely adore, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member! I am currently on summer break, so I am pretty flexible! When school starts back up, I will typically only be available in the evenings! Whether your furry friend is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I strive to create a calm, loving, and secure environment that mirrors their routine and makes them feel right at home. In my home, pets are supervised closely, given plenty of love, and kept in a clean, safe space that’s free of hazards. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure each one gets personalized care and attention. My own pup is friendly, fully vaccinated, and always supervised during any interactions. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to walk routes and bedtime habits. I provide regular updates with photos and always keep communication open, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, you can count on a trustworthy, responsible sitter who treats your dog like family.

About: I am a certified dog trainer and managed a daycare / boarding facility for 2 years. I was an employee there for longer. 12 hour days every day with dogs of all types. I know how to administer medications, including insulin. I also know how to handle myself in emergency situations, I've learned dog first aid and I've broken up fights in my time that would've been deadly if I wasn't there. I'm free anytime every-day. I do gigwork, so my schedule is very open ended. I love dogs, cats, and other pets a whole bunch, I've got two dogs of my own. I'll do whatever someone wants for their pet, assuming it's reasonable. I'm okay on multiple large walks, extended play time outside, anything like that is 100% okay.

About: I grew up in an animal loving household. My mom is a vet so that helps lol. I have had a pug, Yorkie and a St. Bernard. I currently have a French bulldog and two Frenchie mixes. I also have owned a Ferret and I currently have a snake. I have pet sat in my neighborhood for a while now. I have also pet sat for my mom's coworkers too. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, llama's, alpacas, horses, goats and poultry. I'm here for all your animal needs! I showed dogs in 4-H for 8 years. Showmanship, obedience, and agility. I showed a St. Bernard, French bulldog, German shepherd and a Golden retriever. I also showed my ferret and my snake in the small pet show. I will be in school staring end of August so I will have to see what that will look like for me. This summer I will have another job so I will have to make this work around that. Just contact me and I'm sure we can figure something out. I will have to go to your place to care for your animals. I will be in an apartment starting August and my roommate would not be too thrilled if I had animals over to care for. If you really need your pet at my place for a short time then lmk and I will have to talk to my roommate. I will try to make something work.

“Courtney is amazing. She takes such good care of our two active dogs!”

I have worked at two different zoos learning about animal welfare. I am looking at getting more experience working and watching animals. I am extremely available and have a very flexible schedule. I do have school but not for long periods, this is helpful when it comes to watching pets. I live in a house that has plenty of space for any pets. I have a cat named Rooster that I would like to introduce to more pets if you're looking for an overnight visit.

About: I’ve volunteered walking dogs at shelters and worked in a vet hospital, giving me experience with puppies, seniors, and providing loving, attentive, reliable pet care.

About: I have a two year old chihuahua, a 10+ year old husky/ pitbull mix and two 10+ year old cats. I have had and have helped care for multiple different sized and aged dogs. I work part time from home so I will have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they need. I am available week days, between 11am and 3pm. I have had some experience with dog training and crate training. I am used to staying out side with my dogs to insure their safety and will do the same with your dog. If your yard is not fenced your dog will always go out on a leash.

About: Hello! Our family loves pets, especially dogs. I have taken care of my own plus have boarded a relative's pets and of course my own. I am retired and have plenty of time to care for your pet's needs plus I'm not alone - I have 2 older boys, (13 & 15), and 6 children altogether, and a wife that loves dogs. I would love to walk your dog, pet-sit, and make sure they will have a lot of attention, be well taken care of, and that they feel part of our family. I know I would want that for our dog if we needed a sitter. I was a youth Pastor for many years and have experience with teens...so, if I can handle teenagers, I can handle animals of all kinds. Sounds funny, but they say if you are good with animals, you are good with people, and vice versa. I have had pets for over 30 years. I am currently retired and am very flexible. I am able to drop in at your address to meet your pet's needs or I am available to dog sit at my residence We have an outdoor Kennel, a well-insulated garage, and our home. We allow indoor pets.
