Dog Walking Lincoln Park

“Had a very last minute booking and Madison was very flexible and awesome in coordinating everything. She was great with my pup Milo and was awesome with her communication. Will be booking again for sure!”

“Leslie and Jonathan have been walking our dog Layla three times a week for a couple months now. They always go above and beyond taking care of her. They have gone above our exonerations and have cleaned up messes when Layla has had an accident and even cleaned up poop in our yard area that we had not yet gotten to. Layla gets so excited to see them and they are wonderful with her! I look forward to the pictures they send of their afternoon walk while I’m at work, it makes my day!”

About: I’ve been pet and babysitting for 6 years, and have had my own pets basically my entire life. I’m a student at the University of North Texas and I love being active and caring for animals, and I would love to care for yours! I can’t wait to meet and work with you and your babies! As a college student, I have a lot of free time between classes and on the weekends, and I am always looking for work. I’ve been doing Rover for a several months now, and I can’t wait to continue now that I’m back at school!! I have a car and am very active, so I am perfectly happy taking your dogs on walks or running around with them outside. I am very good at following even the most specific care schedules!!

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide range of ages, sizes, personalities, and care needs. Everything from individual pets to large multi-pet households. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs and cats, large and active breeds, shy or anxious pets, separation anxiety, medication routines, and animals that need extra patience, exercise, enrichment, or companionship. I’m confident managing homes where several pets have different feeding schedules, personalities, and routines, and I anlways adapt my care to the individual animal. Animals are also a huge part of my everyday life. At home, I have two dogs and seven rescue cats, along with two horses, a miniature donkey, and chickens. My broader animal-care background also includes experience with birds, reptiles, fish, and farm animals, along with extensive plant care. Caring for such a wide variety of animals has made being observant, organized, and attentive to the little details second nature to me. My background also includes an advanced college-level Animal Science course and a Veterinary Medicine course, both completed with an A+ average. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and subcutaneous injections when provided with clear instructions. I also worked for two years as the head equine manager at a therapy barn and have trained horses for five years. That experience taught me to stay calm and confident, read body language carefully, recognize subtle signs of stress or discomfort, and adjust my handling to the animal in front of me. When you leave your pets with me I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without worrying about what is happening at home. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions closely, send regular photos and updates, and make an effort to keep your pets’ routine as normal as possible. I also take caring for your home seriously and keep pet areas and the home clean and organized. Detailed instructions and multi-step routines don’t overwhelm me. Having the information I need to care for your pets exactly the way you want is my priority. Animals have always been a major part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s individual personality and earning their trust. Some pets want lots of playtime and activity, while others are happiest with quiet companionship or need a little extra patience before they feel comfortable with someone new. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel safe, understood, happy, and very well loved until their family comes home. Animal care is already a major part of my daily routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available for early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight stays, weekends, holidays, and many last-minute requests. I am a part time student and attend classes from 9am-11am Monday, Wednesday, Friday and 10am-1pm Tuesday and Thursday. Safety, consistency, and communication are my top priorities. Every pet has different needs, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, exercise requirements, medications, and any special instructions before care begins. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, multi-pet households, separation anxiety, oral medications, and subcutaneous injections. During house sitting, I stay offer to stay overnight and spend as much time as possible with your pets, only leaving when necessary for classes, work, errands, or other commitments. I am happy to bring in mail and packages, water plants, take out trash, and help maintain your home while you’re away. I provide regular photo updates and communication so you always know how your pets are doing. I treat every home with respect and strive to leave it exactly as I found it. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, senior, medically involved, or simply has a detailed routine, I am committed to providing patient, attentive, and reliable care.

“Melissa was amazing!! I had a last minute trip and needed someone to walk my dogs during the day while I was out. Melissa responded to my request immediately. Her communication was exceptional and she sent pictures everyday after the walks. My dogs looked happy and tired after each walk. I was a little worried about giving access to someone I didn’t know to my home and my pets but she was great and made me feel completely comfortable. I will definitely be using Melissa again.”

“Janae is so amazing and took such great care of my pup! She is super patient and flexible all while communicating in an amazing fashion!”

About: I am unable to offer meet and greets in my home due to the number to pets that come through my house and for security reasons. I do have a dog park down the street that I can meet at with my dogs, though I do host pets from different households at the same time and cannot guarantee my dogs will be the only pets here when yours visits. If you pet does not play well with others, this is not the house for you. Kitties and doggies are separated as needed. Drop off and pick up runs from 8am-10pm only. I have worked in animal control and with the SPCA. I have owned dogs and cats and other small mammals for over 30 years. I love all kinds of animals and always have them around. I rescue and care for anything I find on the street hoping to find the owner or a forever home if the owner cannot be found. I am loving and trustworthy. Your pet will love me and my family! I have 2 kids that know how to treat animals. My pets get along with any new faces and will love to meet your babies if they stay in my home. Your pet will be treated as one of my family while they are in my care and they will get all the love they are used to while you are away. I work from home so I am here most of the time. I love pets and hanging out with them is my purpose in life. As I always have several visitors, I am unable to offer meet and greets or allow people in my home, but there is a dog park down the street I can meet at if needed. My drop in/dog walking/drop off/Pick up hours run from 8am-10pm. If you are leaving before 8am, your pet must be dropped up the day before. If you cannot pick up by 10pm then they must stay until the next day. Pets have free roam of the house and lots of beds/couches for naps. We also have lots of toys and a big double fenced yard.

“Caitlyn did very good with Oreo! It was our first time trying to see if he’d do good with a dog walker and with no fault to Caitlyn, he did not. He was shy and very scared and not a fan of the idea. However, Caitlyn tried very hard to slowly work with him and kept me updated on the experience. I found it best to just leave him be as it was just a trial run and it helped me realize it is not for him! But I am very thankful for Caitlyn’s patience and kindness towards him and would recommend her for your pet!! She really cares about the animals she is working with.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a small child, I’ve got a wealth of knowledge when it comes to their care. But more importantly I have an abundance of love for animals. I’ve worked with animals through various jobs but the Zoo is my favorite. I have two golden retrievers of my own who are gentle loving girls. Your pets will find a quiet open environment with a large fenced yard. They are welcome to be on the furniture and make themselves at home. I work from home full time so there won’t be a time that I would need to leave your babies unattended! On weekends I am a homebody and go for walks with my own pups so I’ll be happy to bring your babies along. My babies are treated like children. I ensure they have great healthy food, I maintain shots for them, and keep their environment clean and well maintained. The backyard is clean and fence is not broken so no jail breaks happen! They are part of my family so I make sure to be gentle and give lots of snuggles, pets, and loves.

“Super quick response and highly flexible! I had to change the time for booking same day and she made it happen”

About: I've have much experience pet/house sitting. I'm aware that each pet has their own personality and specific needs, and I am ready to accommodate them! I currently work part time in the afternoon. I'm available in the mornings and late afternoon. My work schedule is flexible, so if needed I can adjust to meet my customers needs! I tailor care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide safe, engaging walks, consistent feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. During house sitting, I'll be sure to clean any and all messes, and ensure whatever rules you have stay enforced. I follow all instructions and send regular updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in great hands.

“Ashley is very good with dogs and it didn't take more than a second to see Gunner's positive and friendly reaction when he met her. Your pet will be taken good care of from this Rover provider!! Ashley also was a last minute substitution due to my May 4th surgery being bumped up sooner to April 27th, and another Rover provider unable to be in town April 27-28. We really appreciate Ashley for being there for us this week!!”

“Emma was great and super flexible with our dog's needs. She showed up on time and adjusted their walks according to their needs. This is huge for families with older and reactive dogs! I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again in the future.”

Emily D.

“Followed instructions exactly, was extremely patient with my anxious dog and made sure things went smoothly instead of stressful. Highly recommend”

About: I've had at least one dog since I was 10, and have been the primary caretaker of all my pets since. I've taken care of dogs and cats of all ages, and have watched pets for many of my friends and family over the years My schedule is fairly open, and I always have someone who can watch my pets for me so there's rarely a conflict. I can routinely do afternoons, evenings, and nights, and mornings on occasion. As someone with a high maintenance dog myself, I'm used spending most of my day making sure my pet is happy. If your pet needs none stop play time, or just constant pets, I'm more than happy to oblige. I never stop learning about dogs so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets.

“She took my dog for a walk kinda last minute and was so good! Told me all about his walk and how it went and took lots of photos!”

Destiny S.

“Belle is amazing with Hachi! She is responsible, reliable, and punctual. She provides a detailed report card and many photos of the walk. I highly recommend her.”

About: I prefer animals over people. I have taken care of animals since I was 10. Since then I have pet sat for friends and family. My first born is a Boxer who I love with all my heart. As an avid animal lover, I am confident that I possess the necessary skills and qualities that your pet will be well taken care of while you’re away. I will abide by all pet-owner expectations that have been expressed, as well as basic animal safety and handling while walking your animal and during interactions. I am available all weekends and holidays. If care is needed during the week, let me know and I will see if I can accommodate. My pup is my son! I will be the auntie to your babies and will love them with all my heart. If your pup has any medical issues or requires additional kisses, I will make sure they are given all they need!

“Vicki did a great job walking Bear, our 75 pound Aussie. She was timely and very easy to work with. I highly recommend Vicki and wouldn’t hesitate to use her services in the future.”
