Dog Walking Arcola

About: I love spending time with dogs and making sure they stay happy, active, and well cared for. Whether it's going on walks, playing fetch, getting plenty of exercise, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable and will make sure your dog's basic needs are always met, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love. I understand how important it is to stick to their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. I'll treat your dog like they're my own and will provide updates and photos so you can feel confident they're having a great time while you're away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I take my own dog on walks, make time for play and exercise, and ensure she has everything she needs each day. Adding more walks and spending time caring for other dogs fits naturally into my schedule because it's something I genuinely enjoy. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide fresh water, meals if needed, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection.

“Rylan is awesome! She really loves animals and it’s very apparent just talking with her! She is a highly recommended walker or for other services!”

“Valerie took Kodak on some adventures this week! She’s so flexible and willing to try new things to keep our puppy entertained and happy. She took him swimming at a lake and some public lands for new scenery. Valerie is proactive and super informed about our pets needs and health. Kodak loves hanging with her :)”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I've taken them through multiple levels of training including therapy dog training. I am a Registered Nurse working part time and I'd love to spend my extra time taking care of your much-loved pet! I currently work part time, which leaves me available for dog walks or drop-ins in the afternoon, boarding is available during the week, though I will be out of the house Mon-Fri 9:00 am-1:30 pm I have a large yard with no fence. We have a walking trail available at the end of our driveway where I can walk your dog when they stay at my house. I have one 2+yr old Labrador and one 8 yr-old boy. My dog is dog/cat friendly.

About: I use to walk dogs for a part time job when I was younger. Have always had one or more dogs in my house hold. Also use to work at a pet store that was very into teaching about dogs health and fitness. I currently work part time but I make my own schedule. I am flexible with hours and days. I’m available morning afternoon and evenings as well. I am great with keeping your pet safe from others on walks. I know dogs take time to warm up to some people and have the patience to work with them to make them feel safe and trust me.

“Thank you Chris! Alpha loved his walk.”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, elderly dogs & just about everything inbetween. Currently pet free & enjoy meeting new furry friends. Enjoy long walks & pampering pets. I’m newly retired & have time to spare. Pet care keeps me active & entertained. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality & teaching them new tricks. I live near a walking path that allows for long dog walks & lots of fresh air. I have pet sit in others’ homes for years & have references as needed. It’s whatever works best for your furry friends.

About: The two loves of my life were my dog, Abby, and my dog Bronx. Abby was a Siberian husky and Bronx a 15” lemon beagle. Bronx was part of my life for 20 years and just recently passed. I honestly can’t imagine a life without animals in it, and one day I wanna be able to reflect back on my life, knowing that I did as much as I could to help as many animals as possible, which is why becoming a part of ROVER is so appealing. I have an incredibly flexible work schedule that will enable me to schedule my work hours around my hours caring for animals. I truly believe that animals are every bit as important as we are, and I think pet owners will be able to rest easy, leaving their pets in my care, knowing that their health and safety will be of the utmost importance to me! I have a two-story condo that they would be able to spend most of their time in with me. I also have a heated garage that I’ve converted into a safe and comfortable area for animals to play in. In addition to that, I live in Woodbury, literally surrounded by parks, full of walking paths that will be ideal for a dogs exercise. One thing I would like pet owners to know is that I’m not doing this for the money, I’m doing this because I’m newly single and alone and can’t think of anybody better to spend my time with than animals in need. I wouldn’t just be some dog watcher, I would be their friend that plays with them and loves being with them.

“Maya took my two furbabies on a field trip to the park and they loved it!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats in many different ways. I have owned dogs my entire life, plus a few cats. I volunteer at the Humane Society in Kansas City while at school where I work directly with the shelter dogs. I have house sat for multiple family friends and am ready to take on new pups and cats! I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.

About: I have cared for animals ever since I was a child. I am a caretaker by nature after years of working in healthcare. My significant other is a dog lover himself and has experience training labradors and helps out with animal care a lot since he works a lot from home in the garage. I work part-time 3 days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) otherwise I am home with my 2 year old and 13 year old boys. I also have a playful four- year-old yellow lab female. She has become very socialized and loves having her fur friends over. We do have a fenced in yard. I am a stay at home mom so perfect for giving your pet all the love and attention they need. I am also available most weekends. I have a fenced in yard. We have a three year-old female yellow lab who is fixed. I can also leave her home with the family if care is needed at your house, I do have a one year-old who is attached to my hip most of the time.

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. I love to give extensive play-times when possible, and lots of pets! Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as well as attending university, so my schedule may be busy, but I am more than willing to work around it to accommodate for proper pet care. My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.

“Brock is amazing! He is responsive, punctual, polite, and absolutely great with my pup. I couldn’t recommend him more enthusiastically.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs for many years and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I will follow your pet’s routine carefully and provide updates while you’re away. I’m currently a college student and also provide pet care through MJ Critter Sitter. I’m responsible, dependable, and organized with my schedule, and I communicate in advance to make sure I can provide consistent and attentive care for every pet. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and individual routine. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and make sure pets are supervised and cared for responsibly. I’m respectful of your home and always communicate if I have any questions or concerns.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Our family animals (dog, cats, goats, Guinea pigs, birds, lizards, and a pony) fostered my lifelong love of animals. As a dog sitter, I have experience working with many different breeds and personalities. I have worked at a cruelty-free animal shelter, where I walked dogs, provided playtime, and helped take care of their living spaces. I have experience dog sitting in my home and understand the importance of helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When your dog is with me, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I am happy to take your dog on walks as often as needed and look forward to having a companion to play and cuddle with. On days I am not at school, I am at home, which allows me to give your dog my full attention throughout the day. I genuinely care about making every dog feel happy, comfortable, and secure, and I will treat yours as if they were my own! I am currently a doctoral student studying Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine and my schedule allows me to provide pet care throughout the week. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I am on campus for part of the day, and Thursday through Monday I study from home, which gives me the availability to provide your pets with plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I live in a house with my parents. The upstairs level is my dedicated living space, which includes a bedroom, bathroom, and a living room area. Your pet will spend their time in this space with me! My parents have a cat that lives downstairs. They will not be living in the same space. We live on 4 acres, providing ample outdoor space for play, exploration, and exercise. We are located on rural road, which is great for long walks. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.
