Dog Walking Worcester

About: I have taken care of dogs since high school. I graduated college in 2023 with a degree in Health Sciences. I am currently working as an aide at a physical therapy clinic, and looking to make extra money. I love pet sitting and caring for animals is one of my strong suits. I am always willing to accommodate you and your dogs needs and I will always care for them like they are my own! I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am a home body, so I am always at home and also have my mom and grandmom in the home to help if need be. In a clients home, I will leave it completely up to you, how I walk, feed, crate, etc. your dog. But I will always care for your dog as if they were my own! For pet sitting at my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I usually walk the dogs on leashes around my yard or take them to the park by my house to walk them. I can crate them anywhere in the home if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys/crates/ dog accessories from my own dog.

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, pigs, and dogs, and as a veterinary assistant at a mobile cat and dog vaccine clinic. I also have experience drawing blood and administering medication to a variety of domestic (cats, dogs) and wildlife animals (tortoises, bighorn sheep), 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: Dogs are family, and that is how I treat every visit. I have spent 12 years caring for my family dog and now my own, along with regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family. I am comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog in my photos, is my boyfriend's dog and lives at his house, but I walk and care for her often. At over 100 pounds, so I can handle larger dogs who may pull on walls. I am experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet's needs and quirks, and I always have your vet's information on hand in case of an emergency. You will never have to wonder how your dog is doing, because I am happy to send updates throughout a visit. I am available for early morning visits and again toward the end of the workday and into the evening, which suits pet parents who need care before or after their own workday. Midday visits may be possible with advance notice. I have some weekend availability as well; just message me and we will coordinate. Safety Your pet's safety comes first. Dogs stay leashed and harnessed any time we are outside, including in shared hallways, elevators, and lobbies, since neighbors and other dogs can appear around a corner without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust: short routes and shaded paths in the heat, and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I make sure your vet's information, any medications, and other specifics are written down or saved in the Rover app for easy reference. We can go over detailed instructions at the meet and greet or by message beforehand. If anything seems wrong, you will hear from me immediately. Trust I work full time in HR, so confidentiality and the careful handling of sensitive information are things I take seriously. I treat your keys, door codes, and home with that same standard of care. Keys are never labeled with an address or unit number, and they are stored securely in my home when not in use. You will receive photos and an update with every visit. I never bring anyone along, and I never share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If my plans change, you will hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and the thermostat. I also pick up after your pet and tidy anything we have used before I leave.

“Like Julian right away. As soon as he walked in the door , he had an immediate connection with our puppy, Oscar. Oscar has his moments, and sometimes does not listen. Not the case with Julian. Oscar listened to Julian and followed his direction immediately. My husband and I were very impressed. After the meet and greet, and we hired Julian on the spot.. The 30 minute walks are documented with a map, photos, activities, and comments. Julian was punctual and conscientious. I highly recommend Rover.com. More than that, I would recommend Julian to anyone.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every animal as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for pets through managing homes and vacation rentals, along with volunteering for animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, where I worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy or anxious animals, administering basic routines, and keeping pets on a consistent schedule. I’m very detail-oriented, dependable, and communicative, so pet parents always know their animals are safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and manage my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility and availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and companionship instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so caring for them feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a job. I also keep my schedule organized and communicate well with pet parents so they always feel informed and comfortable while they’re away. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision. I also make sure the home stays clean, secure, and well cared for while owners are away. Because I work from home and manage my own schedule, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, companionship, and check-ins throughout the day instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I have experience with animals of different temperaments through volunteering with animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, so I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, shy animals, and senior pets that may need extra patience and attention.

About: Hi there! My name is La and ever since I was little I have grown up with animals in my home. Starting from puppies to elderly dog, kittens to cats and even some reptiles! I have pet sit for multiple families growing up so I have numerous references so you can feel comfortable leaving your babies with me. Because of these experiences, I have learned how to give dogs medication, train dogs to do tricks such as sit, stay, lay down, paw, jump and play dead. I will treat your fur family as if they are my own so while they will be missing you, they will have a blast playing in the yard, with all of their toys, and with my two dogs. I do have a four year old rescue and a 7 month old golden retriever. We have a big backyard for the dogs to run around and play, plenty of toys, grooming tools, and time to teach new tricks and give your babies lots of love and treats. I work full time as a 911 dispatcher for Montgomery county. On my off days, I’m looking for something that can fill my time. My schedule is VERY flexible. If you need a day that is marked as unavailable on my schedule, feel free to message me. On the days where I do work, it will be between 7am and 7pm, I am still available before and after my shift for a quick visit. Simple answer? Like my own. I have 2 dogs and a kitten of my own, who I love more than most people. I promise to give your fur baby the same amount of love and care I’d hope someone would give mine.
