Dog Walking Fairview Heights

About: While my specialty is cats, I've also had a bit of experience with taking care of dogs. I recently started voulnteering at a local shelter to gain a bit more experience. I've also done some dog sitting for friends and neighbors. Rover is my main gig and I'd be happy to take care of your fur babies any day of the week. I just need to have enough notice to make sure I can do a meet and greet so we're both more comfortable, which most of the time I can make work with at least one days notice before your trip. I understand that cats have wildly different personalities and will do my best to make them feel comfortable while I'm around. I will spend time with them in whatever way they prefer, whether that's playing, petting or just existing quietly in the same space. With cats especially I do my best to be a calm and quiet presence and unless I have to give them medication or something where I have to get in their personal space, I usually let them come to me to reduce the risk of stressing them out.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about our dog walker! From day one, she has been reliable, caring, professional, and truly treats our dog like family. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that my dog is in such loving and capable hands. She is always punctual, communicates well, and goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and that passion shines through in everything she does. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate to care for your pet, I highly recommend her services. We are incredibly grateful for all she does and feel lucky to have found her. Five stars aren't enough!”

About: Hi all! My name is Lexi and I can’t wait to know and love on your pets! Most of my life, I took care of family and friend’s dogs. 6 years ago I adopted my boxer/pit mix Ace 😊! 2 years after I got Ace, we welcomed Bernie and Roy to the family as well. I love all sizes of animals and am comfortable with all breeds! I have a background in nursing which has come in handy to give medications to pets and for any bumps or scrapes they experience! I will be on a planned break from my career starting November 20 and will have all availability during the week and evenings to pop in to take care of your pets! Happy to go with what routine your pet likes! Whether that is playing in the backyard or going on a long walk together! You know your pet best and communicating their needs on what keeps them and others safe is all I ask!

About: I've had my own cats for almost 6 years, I've volunteered at the Belleville Area Humane Society for around 4 months, and I do occasional dogsitting and housesitting for family friends when needed. I am currently going to college and will be occupied with classes Mondays-Thursdays in the mid afternoons. Aside from that, I will be doing work studies for my degree so I will let you know when I can what my schedule will be. I will be completely free on weekends aside from outside events. I appreciate detailed instructions on any specifics needed when caring for your pets, such as medications, feeding times, bathroom breaks, regular walks, or any other schedule they need.

“Lindsay is a really lovely gal and the dogs just adore her! She’s a real natural with the pups…I would definitely recommend her and I will be using her again!”

About: I’ve been a go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years, and I truly love spending time with animals. Whether it's going on walks, keeping pets company while their people are away, or sticking to a strict feeding schedule—I bring a lot of patience, care, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart is how present and observant I am. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, from playful pups to shy cats, and adjust my care style to make them feel safe and happy. I’m also highly reliable and communicative, so pet parents can feel totally at ease knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for daytime walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I’m great at managing my time and can easily build pet care into my routine—whether that’s morning feedings, afternoon playtime, or evening walks. Since I’m saving up to adopt a pet of my own, I’m excited to dedicate consistent time and energy into caring for yours! I always plan ahead to make sure I’m fully present during visits and can give pets my full attention—your pet’s comfort and routine will always be a priority for me. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort always come first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs or boundaries before visits begin. I also make sure to keep feeding, walking, and medication schedules consistent to reduce stress for the pet. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect—cleaning up after pets, following all house rules, and making sure doors, crates, and gates are secure at all times. I send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-safe, and calm—free of hazards, with cozy spots for rest and plenty of time for play and affection. Building trust with both pets and owners matters deeply to me, and I work hard to ensure you feel confident and worry-free when you leave your pet in my care.

I am currently shifting between overnights and day shifts, but would love to meet your pet in between! In a clients home it is important to establish a trust as it is their private space. Being able to take care of their pet it is important to treat a clients space with respect and care as well. I hope that there is never concern when I pick up or drop off for care.
