Dog Walking In Maplewood

“Rebecca has been wonderful with my skiddish dog and also with my boisterous overly friendly dog. She’s reliable and provides detailed updates. It is apparent she has a true love of dogs! ?”

About: I didn’t grow up with dogs of my own but all my friends had dogs and some of my family did, too. I’ve been around Great Danes to little chihuahuas. I do take care of my best friends two dogs when she is working her 12 hour shifts which includes letting them out to potty, feeding them, giving treats and of course all the rubs and lovings. I currently work part time at a doctors office so my afternoons and evenings are very open. Doing care in the morning before work is also not an issue. I do start work at 7am, but I am happy to stay the night or get there early before my shift. I unfortunately would not be able to offer services in my home unless it was a caged or tanked animal because I do have 4 cats currently. One of my cats is absolutely terrified of dogs.

“Dan took excellent care of our dog, walking him daily when I could not walk him due to my surgery and during our vacation. Dan is observant to any changes in our dog’s behavior and mood and is thorough in communicating that information following the walks. We are very fortunate to have Dan’s reliable services!”

“I highly recommend David as a dog walker! He’s always punctual, quick to respond, and incredibly flexible, making the entire process smooth from the get-go. David treats my home with respect and shows genuine affection for Memphis. He takes him on long walks that leave my pup happily worn out, which I truly appreciate. I also do love the regular photos he sends, and they reassure me of their time together. Overall, it’s been a fantastic experience so far with no issues whatsoever. David would be a wonderful addition to your dog’s routine!”

“Did a great job walking my dog on such short notice! She was willing to meet my dog beforehand to make sure she was comfortable with her which I really appreciated.”

“An absolute lifesaver.”

About: Growing up with pets my entire life, I was able to get the jump on caring for pets of all ages and sizes. I’ve had multiple cats and dogs at a time. Navigating their relationships and routines was a welcomed challenge! I have experience caring for puppies and pups in their golden years. I currently work evenings as a cleaner. That leaves tons of time to walk, potty, play, and enjoy their yummy meal(s)! I love to give my undivided attention to your fur babies. At this time, I am not able to care for pets in my own home. After a meeting with you at their favorite park or pup cup spot, I would love to accommodate your pet care needs.

“Charlene is lovely! She was available at the last minute, super pleasant and positive, and made Olive feel comfortable immediately! I will definitely call her to walk Olive again soon!:)”

“Excellent rapport with my nervous doggie, Jenine was able to get her to go the entire half hour (the dog keeps wanting to return) and go potty before returning. Definitely recommend and my dog loves her!”

About: Certainly a lover of all animals, but I'm mostly definitely a dog person!! I have cared for my own jack russell for the past several years, but had to leave her with my parents since my original apartment did not allow pets. Now, however, I’m in a pet friendly area and have my own pit mix named Buddy! He is a rescue so new introductions need to move slowly, but once he gets to know you he will love you unconditionally! We are looking for a walker to come between 11:30-1 on weekdays to walk him for a half hour. I’m happy to do a run through walk with you to make sure you’re comfortable and ready to take on The Bud Man. Let me know if you’re interested! I work full time as a teacher but am available mid-late afternoons, weekends and holidays. For summer I am looking for full time dog care jobs! I typically don’t have my dog around other dogs for safety precautions. Depending on the clients preferences, I can frequently let your pets out for potty breaks, take them out on leashes during potty breaks, feed them, administer medical care as needed, and give them lots of loving.

About: I have been breeding dogs since 2019 and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of various sizes, temperaments, and needs. Through breeding, grooming, and working closely with professional trainers and groomers in my network, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, coat care, and handling techniques. I have groomed dogs through referrals and word of mouth and am very familiar with proper care, structure, and maintaining a calm environment. My background in the fire service has strengthened my reliability, attention to detail, and commitment to community trust. I take dog welfare seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Dogs are always monitored, never left unattended outside, and introductions are done slowly and safely. I’m experienced with crate training and can crate dogs if needed or requested. Cleanliness, routine, and each pet’s individual comfort and safety are always my top priorities.

“Alex was timely with his dog walks and was always sure to send updates and pictures! He doesn’t leave until your dog is comfortable! Thank you Alex!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and I love and care for them all. My own dog is my whole world and I treat all dogs like they are my own. I am a college student on summer break looking for dog walking and dog sitting opportunities. I have lots of free time and can do drop in visits as well. I will respect everything in my clients house and listen to all of the instructions they give me. I will care for the dog and make sure all its needs are met.

“Madeline was fantastic! Kind and timely.”

“John was excellent with my dog. He was polite and dependable. I knew I could count on him and that my dog was safe in his hands!! I recommend him!!! I'll be using John's services as long as I'm living in Rochester.”

About: I’ve always been the girl who is obsessed with dogs. I grew up with dogs and I was the one who took care of them, and that love for caring and training has only grown. I’m the type of person who needs a lot of “outside time” so my soul dog Murphy and I spend a good amount of time playing in the courtyard and going on multiple walks a day; I truly don’t know who’s happier. Currently, I have a very open schedule and it’s just Murphy and I at home all day. Some evenings I babysit for my family out in Spencerport, but kid friendly dogs are welcome to come with me and there is also a large yard (not fenced in, but there is a 30 ft leash set up). I have a fenced in grass courtyard where the dogs can play, and my apartment is very open and there’s lots of room for dogs to play inside. My dog Murphy does not need to be crated when left alone, but I have a small cage in case anyone who visits needs it. Murphy has more toys than I care to admit, so your pups will have lots to play with.

About: I've been taking care of all kinds of not only dogs but animals in general since I was 5. Cats, rabbits, chinchillas, ferrets, fish, iguanas, all kinds of birds, snakes, etc. I've been a pet store manager for 8 years, providing quality care to these animals and finding them good homes. I've been a veterinarian assistant for a year, and am in school to become a technician. I am available most of the time! I am dedicated to helping you find the time you need while not having to worry about your fur babies! If house sitting is required, I can delegate more time to that (and your pets!). I will care for your babies as if they are my own! I have plenty of experience with medicating and comfort care as well! Leave me a list, or have me do my thing, your babies are in the right hands!

About: 18 years of dog/cat sitting experience who has a deep love for all animals. We treat every pet like they are our own. Guaranteed they leave happy every time! We take every dog we watch for at least one long walk daily (If they are able), and can adjust as needed based on your preferences. We have a very open and accommodating schedule. Your pet will never be left alone all day! Melissa and I make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. We have fenced in yard with a good amount of space for dogs to run and have a 4 year old yellow lab who loves to play and will help get energy out. She has the awareness to pull back if other dogs don’t want to play with her. We have a 7 year old cat who will typically hide upstairs in her room while new animals are over. Luna is friendly when she comes around. I have a long time girlfriend Melissa, who lives with me and will be helping out.

About: Hi I have plenty of personal experience from owning my own dogs and cats since I was 5 . I’v Also had experience from family members and friends relying on me to watch , feed and stop in occasionally to check in on there pets while out of town or at work . I have owned a couple puppies so I can help maintain your potty training schedule , and or any schedule your dog or cat might need and or be accustomed to. My entire schedule currently revolves around taking care of and watching pets . For work and in my free time . If I’m not taking care of mg own pets I’m taking care of somebody else . I work with animals during the week and on the weekends I am available for pet sitting and some occasional week afternoons and week nights I am available I have a fully fenced in back yard for your fur babies to run around in and have fun . depending on the weather I have water toys and pools for pups to play in . I keep an extra dog cage for anyone who crate trains there dog and or prefers them to be locked away at night for safety purposes. There is a park located at the end of my street we can go for walks or local trails if pre approved by parents/owners . i often watch my sister puppy who loves to play with other dogs so if your pup needs a friend he can stop over for play date’s. If pre approved by me and owner. please keep in mind he can be very hyper because he is still young so it would be recommended that they meet first to make sure their energy levels match, but he also is not fixed so any unfixed females or males will not be allowed to have a play date unfortunately so there is no chance for accidents. For any cats I have cat trees for they to sit and lay on for bird or squirrel watching if that’s what they prefer I also have some crazy kittens currently running around at the moment who love to play and can help keep your cat comfortable and happy while being here on for there stay . If your cat prefers there independence I have plenty of space to keep them separated from any dogs or other cats in the house. I do know some animals first aid for minor issues / injuries I will be stocking up on more medical supplies incase a small issues ever occurs .

About: Hi, I'm Tom! I've spent over four decades living with and loving animals and I've never lost that "avid" spark for a day spent with a dog. I'm an active person who genuinely enjoys being outdoors, so if your dog has energy to burn, they've met their match! I truly enjoy working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. Whether it's a slow, gentle stroll for a senior pup, a playful walk for a growing puppy, or a high energy trek for a large breed, I adapt my pace to meet your dog's specific needs. While i love the little guys, i also am more than capable of handling the "gentle giants" and strong pullers with confidence and care. I'm well-versed in using various walking gear, from standard leashes to front-clip harness, ensuring every dog stays safe and controlled regardless of their size. Whether its's a brisk neighborhood power-walk or exploring local trails like Durand Eastman or Lucien Morin Park, (two of my dog's favorites) I tailor every outing to your dog's fitness level. I'm not just there to "do the job"-I'm there to make sure your pup gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to be happy and tired by the time they get home. I pride myself on being punctual and highly communicative. You can expect plenty of updates and photos of our adventures. I treat every dog with the same care and attention I give my own, prioritizing their safety above all else. I am comfortable administering first aid or any medications if ever needed. I'm available every day from 11 am - 3 pm Dog walking: 30 or 60 minute neighborhood strolls. Drop in visits: Short check-ins for feeding, potty breaks, or playtime in client's home. Pet Taxi: Adventure Excursions: for trips to the groomer, vet, and daycare. Doggy Shuttle: Solo or group hikes and adventures at some of our fine local parks Senior and Medical Care: Medication administration (pills or injections) and gentle strolls with backup wagon assist if needed. Puppy specialized care: Frequent short visits tailored for training and socialization needs of dogs under one year old. No extra charge for basic feeding or oral medication administration... Safety is my top priority, and I take a proactive approach to ensure every pet in my care is secure and comfortable. With over 40 yrs experience, I've learned that anticipation is key especially with large breeds. I am always vigilant about my surroundings and focused entirely on your dog. Gear check: I perform a thorough check of all leashes, collars, and harnesses before every walk to ensure they are in perfect working order. On-leash Only: For maximum safety, I keep all dogs on leash during our outings, even in off-leash areas, unless we are in a 100% secure, fenced in yard. Environmental awareness: I avoid interactions with unfamiliar dogs or people on walks to prevent any unpredictable situations. I am also highly mindful of the weather, ensuring paws are protected from hot pavement and that pups stay hydrated. Home Security: When entering and exiting your home, I use extra caution to prevent "door dashing." I treat your home with the same respect and care I give my own. After our visit or walk, i take a moment to send you a detailed "Report Card." You'll get a summary of our route, their behavior, and-of course- at least 2-3 great action shots from our time together. I treat every schedule with the same reliability I'd want for my own pets. Rochester weather can be unpredictable! For the safety of your pet, I may shorten walks during extreme heat (90+) or dangerous wind chills. In these cases, we will spend the remaining time playing indoors or doing mental enrichment challenges, so they still get their energy out. Depending on your specific dog's tolerances and needs...
