Dog Walking Bartlett

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have had my family dog for 9 years now. I do a lot of the caring for my dog. I played an integral part in my dog’s recovery from knee surgery. I have also dog sat many times for dogs of all ages from 1-2 year old dogs to elderly dogs. I was also a dog sitter for my college canine companion club for 2 years. This taught me a lot about dog training, etiquette, and respect. While taking care of these dogs, I walked them, gave them food and water, played with the dogs, gave the dogs their medications, worked on owner specified training, and made sure that the dogs were comfortable and happy. I have always loved dogs, listened to their body language, and respected them. I am available to sit for single dog households and multiple pet or dog and cat households. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! Starting Jan 5 I am not available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 3-8:30pm and Saturday 1-5:30, but I am otherwise available to play with and take care of your furry family members. Starting Jan 26, I am not available Monday or Wednesday, Tuesday from 3-8:30pm, Thursday from 7-9:30pm, Friday 8:30-11:30am, or Saturday 1-5:30, but I am otherwise available to play with and take care of your furry family members. I do not offer in my home care. I am glad to talk about any and all routines and rules you want me to follow with your pet (within reason). I am great at reading body language of your furry family members and will do my absolute best at following both your instructions and expectations as well as making sure your furry family members are listened to, comfortable, and happy. I will always treat your furry family members like they are family.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old. I grew up with dogs, helped train my family’s pups, and have been the go-to dog sitter for family and friends for years. I’m comfortable with walks, baths, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, or a little goofy, I’ll treat them like they’re my own :) I’m currently a graduate student finishing my final courses online this summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available by request in the mornings, afternoons, and on weekends, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to be flexible and reliable so I can step in and provide consistent care whenever you need help with your pets :) I always aim to make them feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible. I’m very adaptable and I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs. Before any booking, I like to ask a few questions about your pet’s habits, personality, and preferences so I can provide the best care tailored specifically to them. I follow feeding, walking, and medication routines closely and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If I’m in your home, I also respect your space and keep things clean and consistent for your pet so they feel secure in their familiar environment.

About: My family and I love dogs. We also love cats, but unfortunately I’m allergic to them. We’ve raised three dogs over the years and currently have a 4-year-old Golden Retriever named Jax. I pretty much work from home and have a 4 year old Golden Retreiver named Jax so our routine is already made for a dog. I have a fenced in back yard. Your dog will have a playmate in Jax. I enjoy going out and playing fetch with Jax although he's not much of a fetch guy. He enjoys me faking like I'm going to chase him and then he gets the zoomies and runs around the yard like a crazy boy.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 8 years old. I figured out at a young age they can help heal the human spirit. I wanted to be like them and heal people so I became a nurse. While working as a home health nurse my patients' pets would get a visit from me too. Now I'm retired from nursing and freelancing. My experience is very diverse and I am hardworking. My schedule is very flexible. I'm available 7 days a week. I'm also available for holidays. I can do early morning walks, mid day, afternoon and evenings rain or shine. I have a big backyard and access to a local dog park as well. I love going on walks and exploring new neighborhoods with new fur friends.

About: My dad used to be a forest officer(now retired). Therfore have grown up with lots of pets including dogs, turtles, parrots, and rabbits. I have a 15 year old dog in India whom I took great care of. We have never sets rules or restrictions for him and he is still healthy and living his best life with my parents now. Currently working full time as a PT but usually get off work on Fridays at 4 and usually available to take bookings over the weekend. I live in a community house so we have a common yard. It is not fenced. Regarding inside of home I treat pets as a family member.

“Wendy has been walking my puppy, Missy, three days a week for 30 minutes each time, and she’s been wonderful. Missy always comes back happy and relaxed after their walks. Missy is a diva and sometimes resists going out, but Wendy is always patient, kind, and understanding with her. I especially love the feedback and pictures Wendy shares after each walk—they give me a lot of comfort and peace knowing how Missy is doing. I’ve really appreciated the care and consistency she brings to every visit, and I hope to see her back in the spring.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life (I'm 45] and can’t imagine it any other way! I currently have two of my own — Charlotte, my sassy 5-year-old pug, and Jack, my sweet 14-year-old Yorkie mix. So I’m experienced with both playful pups and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m comfortable with different energy levels, sticking to routines, and making sure walks are safe and fun. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of the family (and probably talk to them like they are too 😊). Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Morning & Midday Dog Walker ☀️ I work from home. Reliable, attentive, and patient with dogs of all ages. Focused on safe, structured walks and positive, loving interactions every time. 🐾 I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, keep their space clean, refresh water, give lots of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you have peace of mind, too! 🐾

“Sophia did an exceptional job walking Huckleberry! He was so excited to see her and had a great time. Sophia handled this wild 7 month old golden with no trouble at all. I’ll definitely hire her again.”

About: Hi, I'm Kayci! I have been rescuing animals since I was a kid. I have experience with everything from abandoned newborns to elderly pets. I am familiar with medicine administration, light therapy, bathing, etc,. I am happy to walk, play with, board or even take your fuzzy/furry to their vet visits. Any questions or special requests, just let me know! While I love all animals, I do not accept reptiles or eight-legged babies! Sorry! My availability is pretty flexible, as I'm a real estate agent who works from a home office. I am willing to work with those looking for long term care, as well as one-time visits.

About: I only had family cats growing up, but when my 12-year-old daughter had a big loss in her life, I gave her a Yorkie puppy. Of course, I knew nothing but how to love that puppy, so I had to learn quickly. Yes, I learned about crating...and also not crating. I've learned that dog training is mostly about "training" the owner. And I've learned how you can be firm and serious...but not mean. Like...being a parent. I've watched enough dogs that when they stay or visit, my home's been named deemed a doggie camp. I've had senior dogs on medication or needing more sedate care, and crazy puppies who get the right things to chew. And for walks, we have a great neighborhood with sidewalks. While this is all "puppy" news, yes, I definitely know how to care for cats too. I believe cats need play and music or active noise usually as well - except at bed time. No animal wants to feel alone...and they never do with me. I usually work from home and manage my schedule, so periodic check-ins during the work days isn't difficult. I don't often travel, so evenings, weekends and home care is relatively simple within my schedule. Pets in my client's homes get a regular schedule for meals, wake time, and bed time. They get a balance of play time, brushing,...and snuggles. For dogs, they get walks and play - inside and out. When an owner is not around, animals are a little sadder, so I work to help minimize that sadness...and given them comfort and company.

About: Hi my name is Samantha but my friends call me Sami! I have grown up with and cared for dogs, cats, and exotic animals my entire life! I have been doing Rover for couple of years now. My love and passion of caring for animals lead me to becoming a Veterinary Technician at an Animal Hospital in Bloomingdale. I have experience giving oral and injection/SQF medication administration. I can provide nail trims and basic grooming if pet allows. I have worked with 2week old puppies/kittens to senior dogs and cats I work a 7am-5:30pm (sometimes varies on time during the week) Tuesday-Saturday sometimes have 1 day off throughout the week.

I can provide chew toys, kongs, frozen and dry treats (unless there's an allergy restriction) , and puzzles that will stimulate there minds. *I do not offer off-leash services. If we are leaving your property or fenced in area a leash will be required for safety purposes. *I do not offer constant care at this time. At this time for House Sitting- I only take dogs that are able to be alone for 6-8 hours as I have work throughout the day. *Require a meet and greet with any new clients for safety purposes. As well as to get to know you, your home, and most importantly your pets. I only book 3 months out at a time, if you are planning to be away far in advanced, I would absolutely hold your spot until it gets closer to your departure date.
