Dog Walking in Plainfield

“We had a very chaotic week from an ER visit to the emergence of separation anxiety. Jessica did a great job helping us out and calming our nerves. She was great with our dogs and I would recommend her to other dog parents.”

About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.

“Excellent service. Best walker we ever had! Thanks again!”

About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.

About: I have several years of experience with animals of all kinds and received a certification in Veterinary Assistance. I’m attentive to routines, medications and each pet’s individual needs. I prioritize calm, loving care and clear communication with pet parents. My schedule is flexible and allows me to accommodate daytime visits, walks, and overnight care. I plan my commitments carefully so I can reliably maintain routines, walks, feedings, and quality one-on-one care. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and household guidelines carefully. I prioritize calm, attentive care, playtime, and affection based on each pet’s personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel informed and at ease while they’re away.

“Sarah is awesome would definitely recommend! Very flexible and responsive.”

“Taylin is fantastic… very communicative and just a lovely person to work with. She was very kind to my sweet Clyde and always had great reports after his walks. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her services.”

“We left our babies in very good hands with Morgan. While we were on vacation, she came every day and picked them up and took them for a nice long walk on some trails our dogs love. Every day we got an email when she picked them up, photos and comments from Morgan and an email when she dropped them off. We could even see the route they took and the distance and time of the walk. My elderly mother said they returned tired and happy. We would highly recommend Morgan. She is responsible, punctual and most importantly a dog lover. Our girls were in caring hands. We plan on reaching out to Morgan the next time we travel.”

About: Hello, my name is Cadie. I am looking for opportunities to provide extra care and comfort to animals who may need it. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, and have taken care of pets small and large, from mice to dogs. The reason I decided to join Rover is because I am in college right now hoping to gather a little extra money while making someone's pet's day! I am fun-loving, responsible, and I have my own transportation. I am also active, and capable of taking your pet for as long a walk or playdate as their little heart desires! I am available Monday through Friday from 9am to 1pm. While I am currently unable to board any pets, I look forward to walking, playing and checking in on any pets who need a little extra attention throughout the day. I am committed to providing a safe and fun experience for your pet and will ensure their safety to you through frequent text/photo updates. I also have my own transportation to and from a vet should ever need be.

About: Throughout my life I have been surrounded by pets. I have cared for my multiple pets that I’ve had in the past from dogs, to cats, to fish, and snakes. I have looked after family and friends pets, before with great pleasure and happiness. At the moment I currently am available 7 days out of the week. I am free mornings, evenings, and nights, I am very flexible. I will always meet you and your lovable pet with a smile. Also the prices are always negotiable Whenever I pet sit I love bringing dogs to parks and playing with the animal(s). I believe that just as we like to stretch our legs, that dogs love running around and seeing the great environment of parks and their friendly neighborhood. I myself personally love exercise so walks and runs with your pet, and playing fetch, if it applies will be no chore to me. Pertaining to my family, they love pets and have had many before so when I board your loving pet they will be in a lovable environment.

About: I used to work at a doggy daycare, and have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I am comfortable giving medications, bathing, and in cooperative dogs even nail trims. I work part time in the mornings, and I have a few recreational evening activities. I am almost always available by 2pm, and can even stop by in between jobs at work. I am comfortable with using crates when needed, and I am willing to use my car to bring your pup to parks for walks. I also can provide mental stimulation with different kinds of play.

“Rachel was super sweet, communicative, easy to work with, gave great feedback. Our pupper enjoyed the time :D”

“Madison has been great! She communicates and my 2 pups love her! She goes above and beyond to make sure they are well. She even stayed and kept my pup company when he didn’t feel well.”

About: Hi, my name is Gary. I am retired and now a stay at home dog dad. I have a Vizsla named Ozzy who is very high energy, but very friendly. I would be happy to help take care of your furry family members, to help make your life not so "ruff." We enjoy a large double sized lot that is fully fenced in! There is plenty of space for your furry friend to run and play! I am retired, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I can help provided services every day, if needed at reasonable hours. I can accommodate your pet in any way needed ranging from administering medications to cratings. I can provide play time, belly rubs, scratches and love for your dogs so they feel comfortable.

About: I'll be honest, I am doing this because I need extra money. But I want to make extra money spending time with your pets because I love being around animals and I want to spend actual time with them giving them love, exercise, and a good time. I am able to spend actual time with them as I am a teacher and do not work during the summer. Animals deserve to be shown affection as much as possible throughout the day especially when a lot of their time is spent waiting for owners to come home. Don't let your pets wait around for you, give them someone to hangout with in the meantime! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes! I know how important it is for animals to be cared for meaning being fed, bathed, and given a good rubbin. If you have any questions, feel free to ask (: I am a teacher on summer break so I am fully available for your pets! I love to take them for walks and play with them. I care for pets by taking them for walks and to the bathroom based on their schedule at home. I love to play with dogs and give them rubs. I love making new dog friends.

About: My name is Grace, and I am 18 years old. I have owned and cared for pets my whole life including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, fish, and chickens. I am very active and am willing to run or walk with dogs frequently if needed. I have walked dogs for neighbors and cared for them for overnight stays. I also currently own two dogs that I care for on a daily basis, along with my other animals. I have loved dogs my entire life and am always willing to care for them. I can be trusted to successfully care for your dog while you are away, including on time feedings, walks, and play time. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands while you are away.

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life and I would love to help out. I know lots of great walking/hiking trails to get the pups out of the house and all energy taken up.

When it comes to overnight I’ll gladly help out if just have to make sure I’m available that day I have a small dog and a cat in my home who are both extremely friendly and social, we have a big yard so plenty of room for the animals to run around on a leash. We have gates and crates if needed to make sure all the animals are kept safe

“Holly was reliable and took excellent care of our dogs. We have an elderly dog that can be difficult at times, but she was patient and made every effort to get him up for his walk.”

“Ashley arrived on time and walked my dog with no issues - I will be booking her weekly! She is knowledgeable, friendly, and my dog loves her!”

About: I’ve had pets including dogs and cats since I was a kid. I absolutely love all all animals and do have experience with senior pups. I have an extremely open schedule and lots of time to take care of your animals and house sit! I line and swing dance on Wednesday and Thursday nights, however it’s only for a few hours and it is skippable. I love animals more than anything and would love to make friends with yours! I am not available to board your pets unfortunately, but I do have plenty of experience with pet sitting and house sitting. I love going on walks and playing with pets, so your pets will always be well cared for under my watch.
