Dog Walking Maywood

About: I have loved dogs since I could remember. I’ve had pups of my own and currently have a small Yorkie who I adore, but grew up with a German shepherd who was the best. I’m a nurse and am looking to maximize my puppy time on my time off! I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I’m more than happy to administer medication if needed. Whatever you need, I’m here for you! I’m happy to do drop ins, walks, feeding, whatever you need! I only work 3 days per week and have a lot of flexibility for morning and mid day walks. I live in a pet friendly building with a dog run. I’m happy to crate your pups if that is how they feel safest. I have one 7 year old Yorkie.

“Hannah was great getting Logan moving in the middle of the day while I was at work. She's super responsive and was a huge help to me in my first week back in the office.”

“Sam came by to meet & greet our pup Zoey ahead of scheduling weekly walks. She is clearly well tuned to Zoey’s needs & takes good care of pups writ large!”

“Paris was super flexible last minute and made sure to know all about my doggo and his walking habits so she would be prepared for a walk. This type of care does not go unnoticed and I am super appreciative!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for my friends and family for over 12 years and it’s one of my favorite hobbies. As a graduate student, I love looking after my friend’s animals and taking them for long walks around the city and parks (I even took my neighbor’s pet rat on a walk once!). I have lengthy experience with safe leashed walking on both city and nature routes (I trained my own puppy to be peaceful on the leash many years ago) as well as caring for multi-pet households. Whenever I walk animals or petsit, I love to send photos and updates about our time together so you can know how they are doing while you are away. Outside of providing the perfect ear scratch, I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and dogs and hope to be able to meet your animal as well! Thank you for checking out my profile :) I work in clinic during week days from 7am-3pm and am available for walks and check ins during early mornings and evenings, as well as anytime during the weekend! When I watch other people’s pets, I treat them as if they were my own and provide them the same attention, love, and enrichment that I would provide if I were watching my own fur babies. When ever I go to someone else’s home to check in on their animals, I am cognizant of “leaving no trace behind” and approaching pets with calmness and friendliness so that they can continue to feel comfortable in their home. For walking services, I always carry poop bags and pay attention to the dog’s cues to see make sure they are having a nice time and not feeling overstimulated or stressed by their environment.

“Jen is a wonderful and caring rover for our dog! She’s trustworthy, friendly, is super great with our pup, and always very communicative. Five+ stars!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, and each experience has taught me how to be patient, loving, and responsible. I looked after my sweet poodle for 17 years, especially when she grew older and developed Alzheimer’s. It was a challenging time, but I cared for her with all my heart. I also helped care for dogs adopted by my family. My elderly aunt adopted a street dog named Fred, and since she couldn’t manage walks and vet visits on her own, I was the one who took care of him. Later, my grandmother adopted another rescue named Bruce, and I became his main walking companion because of her limited mobility. Currently, I live with my host family, and they have a wonderful rescue dog named Rosie. Whenever they travel, I’m fully responsible for her care — from walks to cuddles — and she has truly become my best friend. These experiences taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, whether they’re seniors, rescues, or playful companions. I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently have a very flexible routine, which allows me to adapt easily to your pet’s needs. I can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re cared for and happy. When caring for pets, my priority is always their safety and comfort. I make sure to follow their usual routines, from feeding and walks to playtime and rest, so they feel secure and at ease. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m always careful with doors, leashes, and surroundings during walks. Whether in my client’s home or with a pet I’m sitting, I treat their space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I do everything with responsibility and care.

About: I love pets because I cherish the special bond between a human and a pet even when none of them speak the same language :) I have had a cat for 8 years and could watch friends dogs for over a year I really enjoy walking with a dog because it makes me feel zen and happy! I currently have a part time and remote job, so I have a flexible schedule. I can easily plan my day around walks, feeding, and spending time with pets. I make sure they get consistent attention and care throughout the day. I live a in a safe neighborhood with close dog parks. I stick to each pet’s usual routine as much as possible. In your home, I follow your instructions closely. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for wherever they are.

“Amanda is incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and such a dog person. Rosie was in love with her at first sight. Lucky to have her as part of my "dog team."”
