Dog Walkers in Kumler, IL

“Meridith is an absolute hero. As a newly single dog dad of 8 months, and for 7 months Meridith has been such an absolute godsend to make sure a large part of my life, Cosmo is happy and well taken care of. She is understanding and accommodating. She is not just a dog walker from an app, she is a friend to cosmo and myself, a great lady.”

About: I have been fortunate enough to gain years of experience working with animals in both a shelter and medical setting. I am well trained in various routes of medicine administration as a result and love every dog I meet. I just want to be able to make a difference for the pets and their families within my community. I do currently work a full time schedule as a veterinary technician, and study part time, so I generally have a rather busy schedule. I am well-disciplined, however, and manage my time around all of my commitments appropriately, and your furry friends hold a high priority for me. I can prepare for overnight duties and have flexible enough time in the mornings and evenings, and could feasibly do drop-in care over the noon hour. My weekends are generally clear! I sincerely promise to be completely respectful of your living space if I am hired to provide care for your furry little loved ones, guaranteed.

“The best dog walker you could ask for ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

I've been trained on animal behavior and animal training. I have an apartment and animals will have free roam. We would go on walks. I also do grooming, nail trim, and teeth cleaning. Good with working with behaviorally challenged pets. Like to have open communication with fur parents. Willing to text and send pictures to update them during their time away.

I will care for your home and your pets as I do my own. I will make sure everything is as minimal stress for your fur child.

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

About: I've been raised with all kinds of dogs since I was young, from Pomeranian to Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I'm familiar with puppy behaviors, as well as care for elderly dogs. My days off are Monday & Tuesdays to give me plenty of time to care and play with your pets in the early mornings to overnights. Otherwise I currently work in the community Thurs-Sun 8am-5pm with Wednesdays being 12-5, though I'm able to step away for any walks, drop-ins, or play times needed! Please reach out with any scheduling requests and I'll do my best to accommodate for you! I prefer crate trained pets, much like my own, but I'm comfortable being around free roam and cuddly buddies! If given enough time in advance, I would love to meet your pet beforehand to ensure a comfortable and informative visit for the both of us.

About: Fur babies are my life … No literally! 🤗 I’m a Veterinarian Assistant so caring for your pet is literally what I do, what I love.🥰 I do pick ups and drop offs !! I work in VETMED at a local Veterinary clinic part time . So that gives me tons of extra time during the week. I also do drop in during my work day as well. !! I have a fenced in yard and a very nice fur baby to keep your fur baby company. I do also have created if needed.

About: Pets make everything better. They are funny, know when you're sad or sick, and most of all, they are family. I have an amazing little peanut who I adopted from the Champaign County Humane Society when he was three months old and he is my everything! I'm a caring and loving person, and I will give your pets the affection and attention they deserve. I love going for walks even if it's raining or snowing!! I have a lot of experience watching dogs and just like people, pets unfortunately get sick too, and I know how to take care of them when they are. I also know what its like to have to leave your pets at home when you travel, it could be sad or kind of scary at times. In my past, I've stayed overnight at different houses, so rest assured when you're away I will take great care of your pets! My availability is super flexible. Im available 7 days a week, anytime. Unfortunately life happens, and I can be there anytime you need me. I can't wait to meet your furry friend. I do a lot of drop in visits and I'm very trustworthy. I promise you a safe experience when you book me through Rover and your loved pets will get the same care and attention that I give to my own baby boy!

About: Hi there, my name is Kolton! I’ve had pets my entire life and always help watch friends’ and families’ pets when I get the chance. I have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs. Our pup, Scotty, was rescued as well, with little training, so teaching him tricks is always a fun time! I have a very flexible daily schedule with the ability to work from home. This would allow me to work with your pet’s schedule and give them all of the care they are used to. Safety is very important to me when it comes to my pets. I always make sure there is nothing in reach or on the ground that would endanger them (especially for the curious puppies). At my home this means closing certain doors and keeping all food off the counters. At your home I would be sure to keep all guidelines your dogs need to ensure their safety.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 11 years old. I have taken care of all kinds of dogs, all ages and sizes. I have always grown up with a dog, so taking care of one is like second nature to me. I have looked after puppies as well as senior dogs. I have potty trained puppies in less than 2 weeks. I have been responsible for walking, feeding, entertaining/playing, and bathing services. I am a University of Illinois Student who is currently working part-time over the summer, therefore I have a flexible schedule! As as student at the University of Illinois, I have taken multiple courses in Animal Science, including Companion Animals in Society, Science of Pets and Their Care, and World Animal Resources. I walk my dog Arlo in the morning before work, and will do the same with pets that are under my care. I live on a lake and I do not have a fenced in yard, but I will walk them often. I will walk your pets around the neighborhood which you live if I am caring for them at your house. My 4 year old Husky/German Shepherd mix loves other dogs and is very friendly. My dog does not require a crate, however if that is something that your dog needs, I can accommodate! If I am watching your pets at my house, I will require proof of vaccinations to keep my dog safe as well!

About: I currently work at the Champaign county humane society. I’ve worked in two different vet offices and boarding facilities. I have two of my own German shepherds currently. I also watch other family and friends animals as well and I’m always the first one they go to! My full time job is medical assistant at the Champaign county humane society. I have plenty of time on the weekends and weekdays to walk, babysit, daycare or pop in every couple of hours to take care of animals! I have two German shepherds one male and one female that are very dog friendly if you’d like me to bring some company for your dog while I watch over them. I am also able to take the dogs to a local dog park if you’d like!

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs all my life. I understand the needs and wants of a pet parent well. I’ll care for your fur babies like they’re my own 💛🐶 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to meet and play with new pups! Monday and Tuesday I have open availability and Wednesday-Sunday most weeks I will have morning/afternoon availability. Due to my own pack of fur babies at home, I only offer services in your home, so I’m open to whatever you need in your environment!

About: I'm a honest trustworthy person who makes it my mission to be dependable and I love dogs! So I thought I'd give this a try! im also trying to hit some fitness goals so super interested in making some dogs run! Just got back to Champaign from Arizona / Las Vegas! I would love to get good clients and do this full time . If you have any questions please reach out! Every dog / cat is different and requires different needs so basically I Treet my fur babies as family and do my best to raise them right!

About: I’ve taken care of PAWZ every since I was 10 years old. My family had four kittens around that time of age and I took the lead role into making sure they’re daily activity was met. I’ve also dog sat in the past few years while being a student on UIUC campus. I like to go for walks, car rides, or sitting on the balcony on a nice sunny day, so if your furry friend needs a pet sitter of interest please reach out to me. Im currently a student at University of Illinois UC and I work part time. Most of this time is during the day, but this is also negotiable . I love playing in and out doors with our friends in the yard or in the living room etc, while following your pet/home care instructions.

About: Background: I’ve spent over six years working with animals, but my love for them started much earlier. Growing up in a home full of cats and dogs, I naturally became the go-to caretaker in the house. That experience taught me not just responsibility, but how to understand pets on an emotional level. About Me: I’m a longtime animal lover with six years of professional experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and general animal care. While I currently live in a pet-free building, that hasn’t stopped me from staying active in the animal care world. I’m known for being friendly, reliable, and adaptable—especially for clients with last-minute needs or unique requests. I provide regular photo or video updates upon request, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and safe. Feel free to message me with any questions or specific requests. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently have open availability, so I’m very adaptable to you and your pet’s schedule. I often visit the gym on my free time to lift. I follow my clients instructions provided, and if there are no instructions, I make sure to ask lots of questions before being left with your pet!

“Madison is fantastic, attentive, and goes the extra mile!! Cleo LOVES walks with Madie and her tail wags as soon as she sees her. She has been so reliable and consistent with her help and we appreciate her SO MUCH!!”

About: Im fortunate enough to have so much help when I go to work with my dog and work three nights a week so I have a lot of free time during the week. I’m looking to help others make sure their dogs can get let out or go for a walk while they’re busy (: I have a 1.5 year old mini golden doodle who is basically my child. we do everything together from walks to road trips to popcorn time during a movie! I work nights at a hospital and am lucky enough to have my grandparents watch my dog at night! I’d love to be able to help others out and ease some of the stress of having a dog at home by themselves for so many hours! My dog is my bestfriend, we go on walks every day, he loves play time with other animals & loves to snuggle up! We work on commands daily from sit, stay, shake, up, lay down, & much more!
