Dog Walking Grove Park

“I had a great experience with Genevieve as a dog walker. She was reliable, communicative and great with my loud/house-protective dog. Highly recommend to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive pet care.”

“I’ve had a great experience with Melissa. She is always reliable, takes excellent care of my dog, and gives me peace of mind when I’m away. One thing I especially appreciate is the number of photos she sends during walks and visits. It’s so nice to see updates and know my dog is happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she works with, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker.”

“Ilaria walked Donut twice this week, and I would happily book her again in the future. She arrived on time, walked Donut for a full 30 min, and I came home to a happy dog. Thanks, Ilaria!”

About: I volunteered at animal shelters throughout high school and college and have had my own dogs throughout my life. I also have formal education in behavior modification so I know a thing or two about training animals. I’m currently mom to a 3-year old Shiba Inu named Shuri and we work hard on her skills every day. I’d love to meet your fur baby. Let’s chat and see if I’m a good fit for you and your furry one! I’m a full-time gig worker, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pet. I typically don’t pet sit on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but we can discuss exceptions if you need to! I don’t care for pets in my home currently as I live in a home with two dogs who are just getting to know each other, but I will take care to follow any instructions you provide for caring for your pet in your home. I have over 20 years of childcare, pet care, and other care and responsibility experiences. Tell me what you’d like to happen and I’ll be happy to discuss it with you!

“Anika was wonderful with Sunny, took her on long walks and tired her out. She was great at working with my schedule and I will definitely use her again!”

About: I have taken care of animals for many years, and love spending time with them! I recognize that every pet has their own personality, needs, and schedules, and I am comfortable meeting them where they’re at. Whether that’s lots of playtime and long walks or more subtle play time and a quieter environment, I don't mind adapting! I would be more than happy to take them to the dog park, on walks, or play at home, and I will dedicate my time to making them feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I am currently home full time and am available for drop-ins or house check-ins as needed! I am also pretty flexible and am happy to work with your scheduling needs. I base my care on you and your pet’s usual routine including schedules, preferred walk spots, etc. I like to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible by not disrupting what is familiar to them.

“I have booked Saniya to walk my doggy and she consistently delivers! My dog loves her and is always so happy to see her. Saniya is a very great communicator and she is super reliable. I definitely recommend booking her!!”

“Kennedy was amazing with our 2 chihuhua-mixes! She went above and beyond with her communication and care. Will definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to walk/care for our 2 pups.”

About: New to Rover, but not to dogs! I have 14 years of experience caring for dogs: from raising my beloved Pinscher Coco to years of dog sitting and boarding dogs of all breeds and sizes. Sadly, I recently had to say goodbye to my baby and I’d love to share that same care, attention and love I gave her with your dog. ❤️🌈 I’m European and offer what I like to call a “European-style dog-sitting experience”: • One dog at a time. I only accept one dog (or dogs from the same household) at a time, so your dog gets my full attention and is cared for as if they were my own. • Plenty of proper walks. Two lengthy walks of at least 1hr each per day, usually in the park or on the Beltline, plus regular potty breaks. I will NOT go to dog parks until I know your dog very well- your pets safety always comes first. (Of course, everything is adjusted to your dog’s age, health and energy level) • Mental enrichment. Brain-stimulation toys, snuffle mats, treat puzzles, lick mats, playtime and other activities based on what your dog enjoys. • I work from home. I’ll be with your dog throughout their stay, with plenty of company, attention, cuddles, playtime and supervision. • Peace of mind for you. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout their stay, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. • Just bring your dog! I provide everything needed for a comfortable stay: a spacious kennel, food & water bowls, toys, enrichment activities and treats, plus basic kibble if ever needed in a pinch. You’re of course always welcome to bring their favorite bed or toys from home; I just ask that you provide their usual food to keep their routine and diet consistent. I pride myself on offering a true dog retreat. Fair warning: your dog might not want to come home! 🐾😂 I work from home and am home about 90% of the time, which means your dog will have plenty of company, walks, playtime and attention throughout the day. I do occasionally step out for errands, groceries or a workout class. During those times, as well as overnight, your dog will be safely kenneled. For this reason, I can only accept dogs who are fully crate-trained and comfortable settling in their crate. I take this job incredibly serious. I know that for many of us, our dogs aren’t “just pets” - they’re family and often quite literally our babies 🐶❤️ I am First Aid/CPR certified and own a dog first aid kit. After every boarding visit I thoroughly clean and sanitize the space and toys with non-toxic cleaning supplies. Your pups safety, comfort and happiness always come first!

“Alana has been amazing with my dog Birdie every day over the past few weeks as I’ve been injured and couldn’t walk. She’s also walked my foster dog previously as well! Alana is punctual, she sends great updates, she’s so kind, and you can tell she has a love for animals — and you can tell my dog loves her too! Looking forward to future dog walking services with Alana and would highly recommend her to care for your pets!”

“Week one walking with Shanese and she is wonderful! Her energy is so infectious, whether it's midday or 7:30am. She is an excellent communicator and manages time wonderfully. What a breath of fresh air.”

About: I have cared for my 3 month old puppy for 4 years. I have also cared for my older dog previously having to administer medications and other treatments. I work fully remote full time. I have my own car to travel as far as needed. I work out early in the morning the rest of the time. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment that has a dog park. I am home during the day for walks, treats and love. The second bedroom has space for a crate if needed.

“Lauren was fantastic!!! Super thorough on how to take the best care of my little boy, so flexible with the drop in visit (which went great and my dog was super comfortable) when it came time for the actual walks my dog got super shy and Lauren was patient, took the time to get Louie to cozy up to them again and even FaceTimed me to see if it would help Louie and it did. Will 1000% be booking again !”

About: I have been a family and friends dog sitter for over 3 year. I have cared for senior dogs and puppies. I have a large fenced in back yard and full basement when your pups can relax. I typically work from home a couple of days a week. When I go to an office, I am home before 5 pm everyday. So I have the flexibility to let pups play outside or go on a walk on he beltline. I have a fenced in back yard and a large basement. I also have 2 dog friendly dogs so your pets can roam free most of the time.

“Ebani was outstanding. She was very attentive and professional. Would recommend her to anyone needing pet services and will be doing business with her in the future as well.”

Devon L.

“Shannon has been our regular weekly dog walker for over a year now and is absolutely incredible. Completely reliable, highly communicative, and meticulous about ensuring the pups get their meds. Our girls absolutely love her and her dependability means I can be flying around the country or downtown in a high stakes meeting with no worry that she'll complete a walk as scheduled or that our babies will receive absolutely stellar care. Could not possibly recommend more highly. A+++”

Brandy S.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and love animals with my whole heart. As a kid, I even went to camp at the Humane Society, which made my love for animals even stronger. Since then, I’ve dog sat and cat sat for friends and family for years. I truly love caring for animals and will make sure your pet feels right at home with me!! Since I work from home, I’m able to provide care for your pets throughout the entire workday, whether that’s walks, potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m also available in the evenings during the week and have open availability on weekends! I’m happy to care for your pets in your home where they’re most comfortable, or welcome them into my home as well. My home has access to a dog park!!

“I highly recommend Josh as a dog walker on Rover! He did an amazing job with my dog Stormii. Josh was incredibly attentive and caring towards Stormii, ensuring she got plenty of exercise and attention. What really stood out was his excellent communication skills Josh always kept me updated with detailed reports and photos after each walk, which gave me peace of mind knowing Stormii was in good hands. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog walker, Josh is definitely the one to choose!”

About: I just lost my sweet Aussie, Nala Bear. Although, I could never replace her, I am missing the love and comfort she brought me. I grew up around dogs (my mom has 6 dogs currently & she’s not slowing down). I raised Nala Bear for 9 years and gave her the best life ever. I’m talking 6 cities, her own couch, & over 150 toys. I would love to spoil your baby and ensure they are well taken care of, whatever your needs! I have open and flexible availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I’ll follow your care instructions closely; I was a bit of a helicopter mom with Nala Bear, so I understand even the craziest needs.

“Susana was great with our dog and sent updates during the walk which was great! We will definitely be contacting her in the future for help.”
