Dog Walking Lemont

“Rochelle is the best dog walker I’ve come across on Rover. She is responsible, quick to respond to messaging, and spends extra time with my pup. If I could give her more than five stars, I would. Highly recommend.”

About: I have helped take care of my families pets since I was 17. We always had cats and at least one dog. I am currently a PAWS cat/ kitten foster, and also have a cat of my own. I am currently working full time but am passionate about animals and helping others. I am available for check-ins during the day, over nights throughout the week and weekend. I have my own cat her name is Harmony. I ensure that she always has food, water and fresh litter. I have experience working with animals in all shapes, sizes and disabilities. I am very adaptable, have a great attention to detail and can follow instructions to a T.

About: I started dipping my toes in the animal caregiving world when I was only 13, and have since had much experience including pet sitting, working on a farm, working as a veterinary assistant for 3 years, and I’m currently in vet school! I have made the decision to take a break from the vet clinic during the school year. Though I am a 3rd year student a studying Animal Science, I am available most early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I have seen many injuries due to incorrect walking/ collar/ harness/ leash/ etc. techniques come into the clinic, so ensuring your pet’s safety is my number one priority.

“My dog was taken care of efficiently. Would rebook services with Esmee.”

About: Growing up, I've helped train and take care of 2 cats, 5 dogs, and at one point 9 puppies. I can speak Spanish at a conversational level. And I probably will enjoy playing and going on walks just as much as the pet will. I am currently in college as a full time student. This year I have a large break Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays in the middle of my day. When at home I help with feeding, training, and teaching my families 4 dogs In my home I am ok with pets sleeping in the same bed with me and I try to train them without loud commands, but rather visual and quick quite commands. I can allow as much or as little as someone wants as far as rules with a pet.

About: I have taken care of and loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had my rescue dog for about 11 years now. He certainly has not always been an easy dog to take care of, as he was in an abusive home prior to my family adopting him. That being said, I have a ton of patience with dogs of all kinds, and want them to feel my warmth and love!! Additionally, I nanny, and one year the family got two new puppies. Throughout the day we would take them for walks that aligned with their abilities, ensuring that they got the exercise they needed but never pushing them past their limits. My experience with dogs varies from puppy to senior care, and I am very adaptable and flexible! This summer I will be nannying the same family Monday-Friday from 9am until about 4 or 5 pm. However, I am more than willing to walk your pet before and/or after I am done nannying (7-8 am & 5-wheneverpm) Currently, I have a dog that does not do too well with others dogs in the same vicinity… so I cannot house other dogs in my own home. However, I will of course follow whatever rules given to me to ensure maximum care for your pet!

About: I learn quick and fast. I’ve had dogs my whole life and couldn’t live without them. I make sure they have what they need and will go out of my way to make sure they’re safe and happy! I go to Penn State for school. I’m home for summer and I’m free throughout my break. I love pet sitting and meeting all animals! I’m good at cleaning and making sure your home is tidy. If there any damages, I’ll do whatever I can do to fix them. My priority is to make sure your pet is happy and safe.

About: I’m a Penn State student with two dogs back home in Connecticut. Growing up with them gave me plenty of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from active puppies to seniors. I know how to handle different energy levels, follow feeding and walk routines, and make sure your dog gets lots of attention while you're away! As a Penn State student, my class schedule leaves plenty of open blocks throughout the day for mid-day walks, feedings, and drop-in visits. Since I live close by, I can easily fit pet care between my classes, and my evenings are wide open for longer visits and quality time. When I visit your home, I’ll follow your pet's normal routine for feeding, walks, and play. I’ll stick to your exact instructions, make sure your home stays safe and clean, and send you photo updates after every visit!

About: I have owned dogs all of my life and volunteered with various animal rescues. I have cared for diabetic dogs and dogs with other special needs. I love every dog I meet and will treat your dog as my own. It will be showered with love and belly rubs. I would love the opportunity to pamper and love your dog as my own. I work part time in addition to attending grad school. My schedule is generally flexible. Feel free to reach out with specifics of your request and I will do my best to accommodate. I treat the dogs I sit as I would my own. We start our day with a morning walk before breakfast and play time. I am normally home by 4:30 and spend most evenings relaxing at home.

“We used Christa to house sit for us over the holidays so that our dogs will still be in their home environment. As usual, Christa did a great job keeping us updated with photos and reports, walking the dogs, administering medicine and just taking care of the house, all in a very professional manner.”

About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by dogs of all sizes, energies, and breeds! From energetic puppy playtime and structured neighborhood walks to cozy senior snuggles, I know exactly how to keep your pup happy, safe, and thoroughly entertained. Hello. My name is Tricia and l bring more than nine years of professional veterinary medical experience, along with many years of caring for animals in my own home, as well as the homes of others. My experience includes dogs and cats as well as ferrets and a variety of small companion animals, giving me a broad understanding of different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. What sets me apart is not only my professional animal-care background, but the way I approach the animals entrusted to me. I believe animals deserve to be treated with patience, kindness, respect, and compassion. I do not believe in forcing or intimidating an animal into compliance. Instead, I pay attention to what each individual animal is communicating and work to help them feel safe and comfortable in my care. My veterinary experience has also taught me to be observant. I understand the importance of noticing changes in an animal’s behavior, appetite, mobility, bathroom habits, or general demeanor that someone without a medical background might overlook. I am comfortable caring for animals with a wide variety of needs and understand the importance of following an owner’s instructions carefully. I am mature, dependable, and responsible, and I understand what it means to have someone trust me with both a beloved animal and access to their home. I have reliable transportation, can offer flexibility with scheduling, and may be available with relatively short notice. Whether your pet is outgoing and immediately wants to make a new friend or needs a little more time and space to become comfortable, I am happy to meet them where they are. My goal is for you to have peace of mind while you’re away and for your pet to feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. I have one dog named, Cooper and two kitties named, Luna and Liebchen! I am comfortable watching your pet(s) in the clients home, preferably. Definitely cats, as mine get stressed out around new cats.

About: I grew up with 2 dogs and now I have a 1 year old chocolate lab puppy who just graduated from training.

I am a Penn State student who is local to State College. I have a light schedule and even have a puppy of my own so I am taking care of pets all day everyday! I am currently taking a class remotely and am able to spend all day with your pet as I have a pet of my own that I am spending time with!

“Carla was the best! I am an ED RN and have relied on Carla to check in on my fur baby while on long shifts. I always felt that my dog was in safe hands and truly cared for. She was so flexible with her schedule during these times and I am so so thankful for her!”

About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and currently have two black labs, ages 7 and 14, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for neighbors and family friends, caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs with specialized needs. I have experience providing medication, administering inhalers, using doggie diapers, and helping older dogs stay comfortable and maintain their routines.

I’m currently a student at Penn State University pursuing degrees in Accounting and Finance while completing my Master’s in Accounting and studying for the CPA exam. Pet owners can count on me to be responsible, dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently a student studying for the CPA exam, but have lots of flexibility, especially during the standard work day. I also have weekend availability though it is more limited. I currently only care for pets at my clients’ homes. The type of care provided is dependent on each owner and the instructions they provide to best care for their pets.

“Sara was awesome! She took her time with our senior dog. Would highly recommend Sara!”

About: Let’s start this off with the obvious, we don’t deserve pets. No matter how much we love them they will always love us more, we are their whole life and they are such a big part of ours. This is exactly why I wanted to become a pet sitter, to care after the beautiful four legged angels that care for us so much. I have been a pet sister, pet aunt, and pet parent for my whole life, I’ve always been surrounded by animals even if they aren’t mine so I know exactly how to love and treat them! I currently have three cats in my own home. I love taking dogs for long walks so they have ample time to sniff every suspicious leaf before they finally go potty. I love playing with dogs and cats who want to play or chilling and watching a movie with the ones that just want to sleep. I will give your animal all the time and attention they need and will always keep them happy and safe! I can’t wait to meet your favorite pup and/or pups! (Also a cat lover so don’t worry about that!) I have experience with elderly animals as well as dogs & cats that need fluids and/or oral medication. I have a very consistent schedule which helps me be able to plan ahead of time easily to care for your fur babies. I work M-F 8AM-4pm. Monday and Friday I work from home. Tuesday - Thursday I am in the office. Very often my office days are extremely flexible, so please communicate any needs and I may be able to adjust accordingly ☺️ It's very important to me to keep all your animals safe and make sure they feel loved. I always trying to build trust and bond with your animal through their favorite activities and treats. If you have an specific safety needs I will listen to them very intently and follow through to keep your fur baby safe and comfortable. I will always keep the safety of your animal in the front of my mind!
