Dog Walking Hillcrest

About: I grew up with dogs, and I adopted my dog Bailey in 2019. I have plenty of experience caring for the dogs of friends and family members. I have a very flexible schedule, and I am happy to accept same day requests to help take care of your fur babies. I am available every day. I do not offer care in my home. I can provide drop in services or dog walks in your neighborhood. I also have experience handling reactive animals.

“Kenneth followed my instructions and even took my dog for a longer walk than what was scheduled. I would be happy to have him walk Hesed again in the future :)”

About: Hi! I’m Diane, and I’ve been caring for animals for about 15 years. I’ve had pets of my own for most of my life and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies who need lots of play and patience to older pets who would rather have a slower walk and some company on the couch. I genuinely love animals and tend to treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, very attentive to their routines and behavior, and I’m more than happy to provide plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m available for pet care throughout the day and evening. Whether you need an early morning walk, midday potty break, afternoon playtime, evening feeding, or overnight care, I can usually work around your pet’s normal routine. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I try to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, crates, medications, doors/gates, and any house rules you have. I’m also very mindful of body language and never force interaction with a nervous or unsure pet. Their safety and comfort always come first, along with respecting your home while I’m there.

About: I’ve been looking after pets my whole life, dogs, cats, chickens, goats, geese, and even a peacock one time! Right now I have two lil kitties of my own that are the light of my life. I am available at anytime to play with your pups and kitties! I can visit at least two- three times a day to look after your babies! I will do my best to send a picture or fun video every visit for you and your families peace of mind. Please give list of instructions for me if you have specific preferences on how to care for them.

About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m an animal lover with a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for making pets feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I’m especially experienced with long-term, in-home stays, and I understand how important it is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, stick to your pet’s usual schedule, and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog is ready for an adventure or perfectly content being a professional couch potato, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. 🐶 I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with extra care needs, including administering oral medications and routine injections, preparing and following special diets, and keeping up with individual care routines. I understand that older dogs may need a little more patience, a slower pace, extra comfort, or simply someone who pays close attention to the details. I’m happy to follow your veterinarian-approved care instructions and your established routine. I also have personal experience with rambunctious Lab puppies, so I’m comfortable with the extra energy, enthusiasm, and occasional chaos that comes with young dogs! I’ve worked on basic manners, boundaries, consistency, and reinforcing good behavior. If you’d like, I can incorporate basic training and positive reinforcement into walks and daily activities while I’m caring for your dog. When I’m not hanging out with four-legged friends, you’ll usually find me enjoying nature, getting outside, or catching some live music. I love being active and exploring, but I’m equally happy having a quiet evening at home with a furry sidekick. My schedule is fully open, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of time and attention rather than squeezing them into a packed schedule. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel safe, cared for, and loved — and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether you have a high-energy puppy, a senior sweetheart, or a dog who needs a little extra TLC, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the care they’re used to. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! 🐾 When you need me, I'm there! My schedule is fully open. I work around your schedule in order to make sure you and your pet are getting the best service possible. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your pet’s routine and care instructions closely, keep their environment clean and secure, and pay attention to the little details that help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m especially mindful of doors, gates, medications, feeding instructions, and any special needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Thank you so much!”

“Addison is great! I have been so happy with her walking our dog. Great communicator, respected our time and space, and our puppy loves her.”

Lauren H.

“Pam is amazing and trustworthy. I used her because I already knew her and knew she was amazing, and was not disappointed. She communicated well, my dog loved her and she made sure my dog, who is a new rescue known for getting loose previously, was safe, secure and well taken care of. 100% recommend Pam. She is respectful, kind and she is calm and confident with dogs. 😊”

About: I’ve always been around animals since I was little, living on a small farm and growing up taking in four cats of my own! I currently work at home as an artist, so I am very flexible and able to accommodate during the summer until school starts back up for my son. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of animals, knowing how to handle them, play, feed and clean! Very respectful of your pet’s personality.

“So happy to have found Ashley for our two doggos! She’s incredibly kind and our shy pups warmed up to her quickly. On time and very communicative. My husband and I highly recommend her services.”

Elyse C.

“Katie was awesome! She came over to meet my dog beforehand and he had three walks with her. I loved her detailed “report card” and getting cute photos of my dog. I feel super comfortable with her taking care of my dog and will be asking for her help again in the near future.”

About: I am a huge animal lover- I currently have a few cats and dogs (high energy Belgian malinois and huskies), as well as a dozen quail. Previously, I’ve had multiple birds, turtles, fish, and chickens! I am extremely experienced with all types of caregiving and love doing it! I regularly take my dogs to fast cats, any outdoors activity like paddle boarding, runs most mornings, etc! I have extensive experience dealing with dogs with various medical issues. One of my dogs was diagnosed with a severe case of Addison's disease, requiring daily medications. My other elderly dog has frequent seizures, so I am confident in my ability is caring for special case animals. I am available for sitting, walking, or overnight boarding at any time, any day! I have completely open availability including late nights or early mornings. Safety is the most important thing- I carry my own pet insurance that covers more than just rover's. While on walks, I do not allow dogs to meet other strangers or animals in any situation. I always carry spare leashes and an air horn.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and have lived with multiple cat owners as well. I feel like pets like my calm and loving demeanor 😊 I enjoy the flexibility this profession allows and I love the outdoors. If your pet wants a long walk in the sun or just needs to stretch its legs in the backyard I’m down for either! 😁 I feel as though my laid back demeanor is great for working with animals and even the pickiest cats have fallen for me. I’m great at reading the body language of animals and know when they want a belly rub or when they want me to sit six feet away.

About: My name is Ashley. I live in Murray Hill area. I have taken care of several of my family members pets. Dogs are the best! I really enjoy taking care of animals. My dog passed away. Taking care of dogs helps me with missing my dog. His name was Bruno. Currently, I am available Monday- Friday from mid-morning to the afternoon. I am walking dogs part time. I am in school. I can do some weekends. I do not offer dog sitting at my home or a client’s home. I just want to walk dogs part time. I am in school.

“Erika was great and so reliable during our vacation. John loved his walks with her, and we really appreciated the updates she sent while he was out on his walks. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

About: First time booking on rover? Use my code to save $40! KENDRR12795 Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. My journey started with my first pet, Frenchie, a toy poodle, followed by my family’s German Shepherd, Snoopy, and now I’m the proud dog mom to Jazmine, my adorable mini Dachshund and certified cutie patootie! I’m the go to pet sitter for friends and family, whether that means house sitting so pups can stay comfy in their own home, taking long walks, or hosting playdates to help burn off extra energy. Since I work from home, your fur baby will get plenty of attention throughout the day. Jazmine's and my daily routine includes regular walks, outdoor time to keep up with neighborhood happenings, and a few fun dance breaks (yes, really!). I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule to make their stay as stress free as possible. When you book with me, I promise to care for your dog as if they were my own, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos along the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care is already a seamless part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I’m able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day rather than limiting care to mornings and evenings. During work hours, pups are typically with me in my home office or relaxing on the veranda, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Weekend care is just as flexible, allowing time for longer walks, playdates, and extra enrichment as needed. My day naturally includes regular walks, outdoor time to explore and stay engaged with the neighborhood, and interactive play (plus a few fun dance breaks!). I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s established routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any special care instructions, to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. With a fenced-in yard and a friendly resident pup, dogs in my care get both companionship and a safe space to play. As an avid Rover user myself, I know how important it is to feel comfortable with your sitter and their home. I’d love to set up a meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.

“Vizslas are notoriously aloof and skeptical with new people. Moose is also currently in his angsty tween stage. We had a few previous meetings and greets where he decided he wasn’t a good match with the prospective dog walkers. Jordan arrived on time dressed both professionally and appropriately for a first meeting and walk with a high energy dog. She took the time to introduce herself, meet and bond with Moose, and was very easy to get along with and knowledgeable about not only working dogs but also the Rover program itself. She immediately put both myself and moose at ease. She spent time in the back yard playing fetch with him (he tends to make you feel like you’re an automatic tennis ball thrower) and then took him for a nice walk. She quickly learned his hand signals and Dutch and English voice commands. He was very disappointed to see his new friend go and is looking forward to his next adventure with her- as he has been missing his daily runs with me and now has a new awesome exercise buddy! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone!”

Gabrielle A.

“CJ was amazing in winning the trust of our anxious pup, Lily. She calmly worked through Lily's fears and became her friend over the course of just 2 walks! She is patient, enthusiastic, and clearly loves animals. We highly recommend CJ!”
