Dog Walking Edwardsville

“Rachel great! We really appreciate her willingness to regularly walk two dogs, both of which need to learn a bit more leash etiquette. We highly recommend Rachel for your pet care needs!”

“Joy went out of her way to meet our dogs beforehand. She was kind and attentive, she sent photos of our boys while she was there. Will definitely be using her again!!”

About: I’ve always watched my dogs as I was home and my parents would work all the time, I’m 21 now and watch my roomates cats/others animals all the time when they are away. I don’t currently work I’m just trying to save money as I’m currently in my last semester of college this summer. Therefore I’m pretty free and would like recurring clients! I don’t take pets into my own home however if I care for them at yours/take them on walks I’ll care for them overly and give them lots of attention and protection.

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

About: I have grown up in a household with dogs, mainly the medium to large sized breeds. I have experience with all sizes of dogs though, as I have taken care of a variety of sized dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I have taken care of cats and dogs when needing medical care - especially giving meds and minor wound care - and also have groomed and walked many types and sizes of dogs. I love making sure the pets are healthy and happy. I have volunteered at an animal shelter to help with the care of animals - providing play time, meds, and grooming of both dogs and cats. I'm currently a full time student at SIUE and I'm in the MFA art studio program. For summer 2026 semester my schedule is Mon-Fri for a few hours in July. For fall I have classes Monday through Friday for a few hours at a time. Weekends I'm generally free. For drop ins and walks, I'll work with you to figure out the best time(s) based upon my schedule and distance from campus. During house sitting, I can provide food, medicine, play time, walks, and many other services. I also am willing to assist with house related things - bringing in mail, taking trash out for trash pickup, etc - just let me know and we can work it out. For walks and drop ins, in addition to the service, I can provide some house related services (like bring in mail and packages) upon request. I am available to help with the pets at the clients home. I can either stay at your place or go home at night, which I can work with you based on your needs and comfort. I have experience with gated and non gated yards (so needing to leash the dog when taking out for the potty), gates for inside the house, and crate training. Often I will have my own leash with me so that if anything happens, I'm prepared. As for walks, I often work with the dog(s) to see what triggers them and avoid as much as possible. I know not all dogs are friendly with other dogs or people so I am aware of my surroundings and provide appropriate distance to avoid people and dogs as best as I can.

About: Lover of dogs, all shapes and sizes! I have grown up around dogs my whole life, both big and small and would love to be your next go-to for walks and drop-in visits! I am currently working full time as a barista while on summer break, but my working hours are pretty flexible, especially for local visits in Edwardsville! Your pet's safety is my number one priority! I would love to provide quality care for your pet in the comfort of their own home.

About: I have experience in veterinary clinics, so I know how to handle anxious pets. My time in vet clinics and animal shelters allow me to navigate pets that I am meeting for the first time. I am a pre veterinary student at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, so I spend a lot of time studying and attending classes. Pet care gives me a short and enjoyable break. I am very good at forming bonds with animals. I pay great attention to the body language of pets and respect the feelings they express.

About: Can help take care of big dogs, and can play with dogs all day. Cats I can give them their space or play with them as needed. Rover is a summer side job for me to fund my college and stay active. And I love playing and being with dogs and cats. When it comes to walking or at home care, I have the experience and care to work out all sorts of trouble or problems with dogs and cats.

“Lane was great. She was kind, conscientious and gave my pups a nice walk. They were tired afterwards, which I appreciated! Thank you Lane!”

“Meih was amazing with our pup, Milo! She was attentive and caring. We really appreciated the updates and how thoughtful Meih was with his specific needs. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: At 17 years old I worked at a professional pet care industry that included training, daycamp, boarding and grooming. From there I went to the very same company’s dog training academy where I graduated at top of my class. After, that very same company hired me on to be a Personal Trainer at their facility where I worked for about 2 years. I am a certified professional dog trainer that can add my services into the care you are looking for! I have full availability. Drop in visits and/or walks will work better with my specific scheduled but I can do other options with enough notice. This question is very depending on if you are interested in training services. If you are, it will be a very structured, bond building, and teaching stay. For regular care, I think play and mental stimulation is important for a dog when the owners are out of town and they have no outlet for energy.

About: As a lifelong dog owner and current dog mom myself, I love all pups! I'm an early childhood special ed teacher who's looking to love on some fur babies this summer. Whether your dog needs a serious power walk or a chill potty break and snuggles, I've got them covered! I'm comfortable with basic command reinforcement, can stick to mealtime routines or a quick brush-out if needed! I'm happy to treat them as my own! :) I have not had cats before but am happy to feed or give your kitties some love as well! I'm a special education teacher on summer break which means my availability is flexible! I will be off of work beginning May 26th. I do have my own pup at home so I prefer to do check ins and walks as needed! Because I like to stay active with my own family, friends and pup during the break, I do require at least 48 hours of notice for bookings. I am generally available between 8am to 8pm. Since I have my own pup, I'm only doing house calls! Your dog will get my full attention in the comfort of their own neighborhood. I will make sure to check pavements before a walk and make sure collars/harnesses are firmly attached before we head out. You'll get plenty of photo updates!

About: I have been dog sitting and caring for pets since I was 10 years old. I have a huge passion for animals and have been volunteering at my local humane society for the past few years. I have animals of my own and am actually about to add a new puppy to my pet family! I am willing to walk, bathe, and feed your animals and make sure they get the care they need while you’re away! I am actually a full time college student and am looking to give pet care in between my classes during the week. I would be available on T/Th all day. On M/W/F I am available anytime after 12pm to come care for your pets. I am looking to be doing home visits rather than dog boarding because I am currently living in an apartment and do not have the space needed to provide quality care for your pets. I am willing to do drop in visits and in the past am used to doing that type of care for my clients.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and many other furry and feathered companions. I firmly believe that a house isn’t truly a home without a four-legged friend. Over the years, I’ve provided pet care for family and friends, caring for up to five dogs at a time of varying breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have experience caring for cats, including both indoor and outdoor pets. My background is in nursing, which has given me valuable experience with responsibility, attention to detail, and caring for animals with special medical needs. However, my love for animals has always been just as strong as my passion for helping people. My family and I recently relocated from St. Louis, Missouri, to St. Jacob, Illinois. My husband and daughter share my love for animals, and our home is currently filled with the company of our three beloved cats. Earlier this year, we said goodbye to our sweet dog, Roxy, after 17 wonderful years together. Her absence has left a noticeable void in our home, and we miss the sound of her sassy little feet following us around. While we take our time deciding when we’re ready to welcome another dog into our family, I’ve decided to return to pet sitting and expand my services. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I would be honored to provide loving, dependable care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, medication administration, or vacation care, you can rest assured your pets will be treated like family. I'm currently a stay at home mom and can offer plenty of flexibility for your pet's care needs whether that is drop in visits, walks, or boarding. We live on a 2+ acre lot with lots of room to run/walk around the property. We do not currently have a fenced in yard so dogs would need to be on a leash to ensure their safety while staying with us. We have lots of walking paths in our area that we can offer for exercise. If your dog likes a quiet place to rest, we have used our laundry room as a quiet area for pets.

“Great caretaker. Has been taking care of our Airedale For years!”

About: I've trained and have been a parent to numerous breeds. Right now my wife and I have 2 adorable golden doodles. We can't have kids so our pets mean everything to us I'm currently working from home selling items online and taking care of our dogs and cat. I take care of the house and yard and keep it clean I will feed them and play with them. I will let them out and clean up any messes they may l leave. I will check in on them multiple times.

About: I’ve had pets, dogs specifically, ever since I was a kid. I’ve had my own personal dog now for 2 years and took him to college with me. He is an English Bulldog, so I am experienced in taking care of dogs that need extra care whether that be maintenance, medical care, etc.! I just got done with college, so I am open basically all the time! I will be going back to school in the fall, but I am open until then. I have a fenced in yard at my home currently and I have lots of experience crating pets if needed. I also have lots of experience playing with pets and keeping a careful eye on them.

About: Hi! I'm 23 years old and ever since I was young I've had huge love for all animals. For 14 years now, I have been taking care of various pets. I've taken care of animals of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and cats. I have experience of giving animals medicine, such as pills and shots. I am able to walk and actively play with your pet. Being able to bring joy and happiness to your pets is something I absolutely love to do! I'm currently working part time. I work Monday's and Tuesday 3-8 and Thursday's 11-3. Besides that, my schedule is very flexible and I can be with your pets when needed. It is very important to me that I make sure I do everything I can to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you are away. I don't see your pets as just a job, but as a precious pet that should be given love and support at all times. I would be so excited to be able spend time with your pets!
