Dog Walking In Lincoln Heights

About: Hello! My name is Paige. I’m a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I’ve fostered shelter dogs and helped them find their forever homes, which taught me patience, adaptability, and how to build trust with dogs from all kinds of backgrounds. I’m very familiar with different types of dog gear; collars, harnesses, and leashes and I understand how important proper fit and comfort are for safe, enjoyable walks. I’ve also trained my own dog, Nala (my best friend!), and have experience working through reactivity, so I’m especially mindful of each dog’s unique triggers and comfort level. One thing I truly believe is that no two dogs are the same. I take the time to meet every dog where they’re at, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or just a calm, reassuring presence. Along with fostering, I’ve helped friends and family with dog sitting and walking, so I’m very comfortable handling daily routines, feeding, exercise, and lots of love and attention. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities and I’ll treat them like one of my own every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. When I’m not pet sitting or out on walks, I work at a pet store, so I’m constantly surrounded by animals and staying up to date on pet care, products, and best practices. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to offer daily walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins that can be tailored to your pet’s specific routine and needs. Whether your pet thrives on consistency, extra exercise, or just some midday company, I can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to carefully follow each owner’s instructions, because I understand that every pet has their own habits, preferences, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible by sticking to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I’m very attentive to behavior and body language, allowing me to adjust my approach depending on whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra patience. I respect your home just as much as your pet, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. My goal is to provide reliable, adaptable care so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Toya is responsive and flexible. I booked her to walk my 2 dogs and entered the wrong date. She was accommodating and worked with me to get everything sorted. I really appreciated her offer to do a meet and greet with me before walking them. She gets a ????? review!”

About: I'm super passionate about giving animals the TLC they deserve. With my experience with dog walking, general animal care, and overnight pet sitting, I've got a solid understanding of what it takes to make pets feel safe and happy. I'm all about providing a fun, comfortable, and loving environment for your fur babies, and I'm happy to share more about my experience if needed At the moment, the animals in my household are my parents pets, so my current animal care is only needed when asked. I have cared for many animals throughout my life. I have been the individual that my friends and family recommend to their friends and family for pet care for many years. I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, and rodents. I have nothing but love and respect for animals. I’m new to this service but I’m very much looking forward to meeting you and your animal friends!

About: I love all animals! I have had 15 hamsters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 4 bunnies. I am very flexible and looking to have fun with some animals!! I am currently working part-time as I have been accepted into grad school and start in the Autumn semester, this is something I would love to do on the side! I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication in every home I enter. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I keep spaces clean, secure doors and gates, and make sure pets feel comfortable and supervised at all times. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

About: As a pet owner myself, I'm all about making sure you and your pet feel comfortable and cared for! I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. For pets with special needs, I attend to their specific health requirements, ensuring they receive the gentle care and attention they deserve. I am also very diligent about sending pictures and videos during my visit, so you can rest assured that your pet is safe, happy and properly cared for! My passion for animals drives me to create a loving and engaging environment for your pets, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, preferences, and routines, making every visit feel like home. I currently work from home and make my own schedule so I have plenty of time and flexibility to work with your schedule, between the hours of 8am-8pm. If you have special requests outside of these times, feel free to reach out and see if I can accommodate you. I understand that your pet's safety is a #1 priority. Because of this, I will follow all best practices with respect to safety and will diligently follow any specific and special instructions that the pet's owner may leave me with.

“Way Wanyao was a fantastic dog walker for my sweet pup. They were very communicative about her potty breaks and also took the time to wipe her paws after each walk. I would definitely book with them again!”

About: Probably my biggest flex as a person is that ALL animals LOVE me. I always feel so blessed and honored that animals receive me so warmly and readily. I have taken care of a wide array of animals! From fish, to cockatiels, cats, dogs, and a few reptiles!! I loveeeee all animals and have a biology degree that's afforded me so great knowledge on the veterinary realm! I work remotely so I'm available for a house sitting / checks in's and walks, whenever! Just schedule with me with enough time so we can coordinate and I'm sure we can make it work! I'm very privy to following whatever instructions you may have for your pet! Outline whatever needs to be done for your little angel and i'll be sure to follow it! I understand each animal has different needs, so please feel free to detail them to me

“Avi was great with my corgi! He followed all instructions and was super communicative throughout. Would book again.”

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and have a strong understanding of animal body language and positive reinforcement (R+) training. I spent nearly a decade volunteering with a cat rescue, working with personalities ranging from rambunctious lovers to feral scaredies, but my favorites were always the shy kitties that needed a little bit of extra attention to feel safe. I also have experience dogsitting and caring for dogs with a range of energy levels and temperaments. At home, I live with a nervous, high-energy 5-year-old dog, so I’m especially comfortable supporting pets who need structure, calm handling, and a bit of extra understanding. I am available most weekdays for drop-in visits and dog walks, and I’m flexible with timing so I can best support your pet’s usual routine and needs. I have a fenced yard and a friendly 5-year-old 40-lb dog that loves to play. At your house, I am willing to work with whatever your needs are. I know every animal is different. Let me know how your pet likes to be approached, what kind of training commands they're familiar with any special care needs needs, such as medication. I am happy to do meet-and-greets, especially with shy or temperamental animals.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages before, from terriers to Scotch collies. These dogs have ranged in age as well, with some being as young as 1-3 and the oldest being 15. I make sure to communicate frequently to ensure pets receive thoughtful and fun care that is also respectful of their boundaries. I’m a teacher and currently on summer break, so my time for pet care is pretty open and prioritized right now! Rover is my primary focus at the moment, so let’s chat about some care for your pet! Whenever in a new environment, I make sure to inspect all possible exits or potential areas for danger or risk for pets. Additionally, respecting your home and your boundaries is a top priority of mine! I don’t use things unless I’ve asked about them and will communicate if a situation ever arises. I don’t have boarding as an option at the moment, but if that ever changes, pet safety and comfort is always a priority!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I can remember growing up I had boxer, pit bull terrier mix, and border collie retriever mix. I can provide a safe and loving environment for all of your fur baby's needs. From pet sitting to short or long walks i’ve got experience with it all. I’m currently a full time student but have the flexibility of being completely online. I’m available mostly anytime for services throughout the week. Please message me to double check my availability before booking. I'd love to take care of your fur babies how ever you need. Making sure they are in a safe & loving environment is my top priority.

About: We have 2 friendly, large, high energy pups and recently decided to offer boarding after we went away for a weekend and experienced how hard it was to find great care for our girls. We hike/ take long walks daily & are happy to bring your pup along on our adventures! We are a dog-loving couple with 2 friendly dogs of our own. We are available for boarding and dog daycare throughout the week. Boarding includes a 3+ mile walk! I have a partially fenced yard & a fully enclosed patio where they can nap in the sun, plus two friendly dogs to keep your pup company and show them the ropes. We live close to great hiking areas & hike most mornings. Your dog is invited!

“Was on time and handled our large pup great!”

About: Hello and welcome to my Rover profile. A pup magnet! What started as a genuine love for dogs of all shapes and sizes has transformed into 5 years of experience dog walking and dog sitting. I love giving dogs attention, spending quality time with them whether walking or cuddling-I will treat your dog as if they are my family. You can expect that I am time efficient, responsible, will follow house rules, and am always honest with my clients. I used to have 2 dogs (Beagle and Poodle) so I totally understand how overwhelming it can be sometimes to care for them with little to no help. Since I no longer have any pets of my own, but I am such a huge lover of animals, I'm happy to offer my services and expertise with animals for other people. Most importantly, I will make sure you are comfortable and adequately updated on our experience, knowing they are in good hands. Communication is key in my book. I'd love to hear from you and can't wait to meet my new friend!

“Saron is truly amazing, she has such great energy which made Zepp feel extremely comfortable right away. Zepp was so happy to see her after the first time which shows just how much she cared for him on his walks.”

“Shae was great with Lucy - it must have been a good walk because she instantly wanted to nap when she got home. Thanks Shae!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments and am confident with routines, medications, and special instructions. I’m patient, attentive, and ensure feeding, walks, litter care, and cleanup are done with care. I treat every pet like my own—safe, loved, and well cared for. I work freelance, which gives me a flexible schedule to dedicate consistent, attentive care to pets. I can adjust my hours for walks, feeding, medication, or playtime, ensuring your pet gets the attention and routine they need while you’re away. Whether I’m at your home or mine, I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. I make sure they’re fed, medicated if needed, and have fresh water. I keep their space clean, give plenty of love, attention, and playtime, and keep an eye on how they’re feeling so they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I am an animal person. I love both cats and dogs, but I’ve never owned my own cat. I’ve had three dogs (medium to large size). I currently have the sweetest 4 years old Dalmatian, Captain. He’s super friendly with other dogs, and rather chill with the cats. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, or just chill with your furry kids, I’m here for you. I also offer awesome (free) photoshoots of your pets whenever they’re in my care. Be ready to get spammed with photos of their cuteness (yes, I am the creep that takes a million photos of them sleeping, eating, just vibing). I’m here to befriend your furry children and be their companion when you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible work schedule. I am available to take the dogs to go potty, walks, play time and feedings. I have a backyard where the dogs can run around with my dog. He is super friendly and high in energy. I have multiple dog beds and a crate, if needed. If your dog is ball motivated, I can toss the ball around. I have plenty of toys to keep them entertained.

About: Hi, I'm Abby! I've been an animal lover my whole life, and I've been taking care of pets in various settings (in-home, daycare, boarding, dog-walking) for more than ten years. I specialize in multiple-pet households, but whether you have one pet or five, rest assured they'll each receive the best care possible. I'm extremely detailed (I love a comprehensive info sheet!), and I ask the right questions up front, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. I work part-time in film & TV production with a variable schedule, which means I might be away from the house for as long as 10 hours at a time. Realistically, I know this doesn’t work well for many pets’ routines, which is why I want to be upfront about my availability. I will, however, be as communicative with you as possible about my schedule as soon as I know it. If a particular day is going to be long, I can also see if one of my film/tv colleagues can cover me, so that I can provide your pets the best care I can. Ultimately, it’s up to you and your pets’ level of comfort! I’m here to support you :) I take your pet's health and safety very seriously, which is why I make sure I understand not only what their immediate needs are (food, water, exercise, enrichment), but also what potential stressors might be (loud noises, other animals, etc.). I gather as much information as I can up front, so I can anticipate your pet's needs as they arise. Knowing where the cleaning materials, trash, emergency numbers, and security items (crate, leash, carrier) are in your home gives ME peace of mind and makes my job that much easier. Once I have all the info I need, while you're gone, I can check back in with you as much or as little as you prefer -- I'm happy to send updates throughout the day, or I'm just as happy to take care of things myself and provide a summary when you return. Either way, I make sure both you and your pet(s) enjoy your time away!

About: I’ve watched friends and family’s dogs since I was a kid. About 13 years ago I rescued my pup and now have the pleasure to love and care for her as she slows down in life. I’ve previously taken care of pups on meds and post surgeries and I always carry a pet medical kit with me just in case. I’m currently working more of a part time job so I have time to spend time with your furry friends. I have plenty of time to spend walking or hanging with your animal! I just bought a home with my dream yard that’s fully fenced in and lots of space. I have a sweet and chill pup named Millie who everyone animal or human loves. I also have 2 cats that are very comfortable with dogs and are open to playing with them or just coexisting.
