About: For many years, I have cared for my own pets, developing a deep affection and understanding for them. I have also provided loving and responsible care to other pets belonging to friends and neighbors. My experience in caring for elderly individuals has also enhanced my empathy and dedication. I am passionate about the well-being of animals and the peace of mind of their owners. I spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide consistent care and maintain pets’ routines. I am available daily and can adapt to their feeding, rest, and companionship schedules. On Sundays, I attend church, and on some weekdays I may be out in the afternoon for short periods, always planning ahead to ensure pets are comfortable and well cared for. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment for pets. I keep spaces organized and free of hazards, always respecting their feeding, rest, and play routines. I supervise pets constantly and make sure they have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and attention according to their needs. My priority is for them to feel safe, cared for, and at home.

About: I have experienced all types of dogs since the age of 13. Neighbors, friends and family have always asked me to take care of their pets. I have a passion for rescuing animals of all types and finding them homes as well. This gives me the opportunity to meet new fur babies and help their owners learn more about them as well as help them feel safe and well taken care of. It's my passion. I rescue, vaccinate, train, foster and rehome as well. Toss out trass and groom if needed. Bottle feed lil ones if needed. Sanitize home and their spaces. Feed and offer play time and training. Take them for walks and to dog parks/beach. Socialize with other animals and people if desired.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs of varying ages and have always enjoyed it immensely. I no longer have a dog of my own but I would love to make friends with yours. I am working 3 days per week (not a set schedule) and have enough time to spend with some lovely dogs. My schedule changes week to week but I am quite flexible and hopeful we can find a good agreement for dog sitting/walking. My apartment is clean and spacious and perfect for a small/medium dog to stay at and play. I do not own a crate but also would prefer if your dog is properly trained and can tolerate being in open space.

About: I have lifelong experience caring for pets. I lived near lots of farms in Mississippi, and helped care for the animals. I truly enjoy learning more about them! I am a recent college graduate seeking extra cash. I have a very flexible schedule. I am willing to work around your schedule! Ideally would want to avoid high daily commute times/travel expenses, so would love to discuss a schedule that creates ample time with your fur babies! (Prices subject to change based on cost of travel). check ins a total of 4.5 hours per day. Morning, evening, and night open to sleeping overnight for house sitting requests. I travel a lot so I am also willing to check in if I am in the area throughout the day! I generally send daily updates and keep open communication if any issues occur. Will also communicate if I feel there needs to be further accommodations based on general pet wellbeing.

About: Hello my name is Aria. I’m pleased to make you and your pet’s acquaintance. Over the past decade I have had a myriad of experience caring for animals in both a work and home environment. I’m the resident animal person that my family and friends turn to when they need help with their pets. I’m caring, passionate, and patient and believe all animals deserving of respect and comfort. So far I’ve cared for two dogs, three cats, a Guinea pig and a red eared slider turtle. I’ve had my pit bull terrier Kida since she was 6 months old. She will be turning the big 13 this coming February. I have also worked as a walker and doggy day care attendant for Aeslin Pup Hub and Tails Up LLC right here in Chicago. So I’ve had my fair share of walking, feeding, grooming and sitting. I look forward to working with you and your fuzzy loved ones in the near future. I mostly working part time from home during the week, so I'll have plenty of availability Monday through Friday. We can even situate weekends if needed. I alway maintain a clean and quiet area for my cat and dog to comfortably lounge in. When they're in need of some play or potty time, I make sure devote my time and energy to them.

About: I love caring for pets so I figure what better way to express that than by putting my skills to use through this app. I’m here to make your day less stressful! I’m home full time and I have a pretty flexible schedule so whenever you need me I’ll most likely be available. I’m calm, active and fun so your dog is truly in good hands with me. I’ve been dog sitting for the past two years now and I’ve learned the importance of being sensitive to the dogs needs. I’ve also learned the importance of being consistent with the owner’s original rules for their dog. No need to ruin all the hard work that you’ve put in to train them properly. See you soon!

My Bernedoodle enjoys his walks with Jasmine, so much that he tries to leave with her when she returns him home. Love her communication style and ease with my pup. I will definitely be a repeat client if she likes us.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Avalon Park dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Avalon Park.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk.
