While Away Dog Walking Services - Lewisboro, NY

Member since Aug 2020

Welcome to While Away Dog Walking, Northern Westchester’s premier daily dog walking service! With my extensive experience and dedication to animal care, I have been serving the furry and feathered members of our community since 2020. I am proud to hold certifications from Pet Sitters International (PSI) and the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid and CPR, ensuring that your pets are in safe hands during our time together. Whether it’s an energetic dog walk or a gentle play session in your backyard, I cater to dogs of all sizes—from under 20 lbs to over 80 lbs—providing tailored care Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM.

In addition to my dog walking services, I also offer pet sitting for cats and small caged animals, available every day of the week. I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including birds, chickens, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, parrots, and rabbits. My commitment to your pets' well-being means I treat each one with the love and respect they deserve. Although I do not offer mobile services, I make sure to fully engage with your pets during our scheduled visits, ensuring they receive the attention and exercise they need.

I understand how important it is for pet parents to find reliable and trustworthy care for their beloved animals. That’s why I am bonded and insured, allowing you peace of mind while you're away. If you're ready to give your pets the care and attention they deserve, I invite you to book my services through Petworks today! Let’s ensure your pets have a joyful and active day while you’re busy.
