Dog Walking in Plainfield

About: I love dogs and have two rescue dogs of my own. Two years ago, I fostered a dog who had been rescued from a puppy mill. She needed lots of patience, care and love, but she is thriving! I understand the needs of skittish animals, and know they need extra kindness. I would love to give your dog love, attention, and to go for a walk! I’m a teacher who is off for the summer. I am available for visits most days. I will make my clients’ animals a priority, and will always give them attention and care. I will care for clients’ pets by walking them, letting them out in a fenced yard, as well feeding and playing with them, and giving them extra attention! I have a lot of patience (I teach middle school!) and dogs bring me a lot of joy! Can’t wait to meet my newest fur friend!

“Fiona was great with my dog!!”

“Alicia is great! We have a "challenging" dog who can be a big particular about people or walking in the rain, or when he thinks he hears noises, or just generally stubborn about leaving the house/yard. So delighted we found Alicia.”

Catherine P.

“Excellent communication and was able to help on such short notice. My dog got a great walk and I enjoyed the pictures :)”

Alyssa F.

“Christopher is excellent. He was calm and patient so my dogs warmed up to him quickly. He didn't skimp on the walks and spent extra time whenever appropriate. Communication was informative and reassuring, including several pictures. Dogs were happy and I felt confident they were well cared for. I will definitely call on Christopher again.”

About: Hi there! I’m Amanda (or Mindy). Animals, especially dogs, have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior pups who need a little extra TLC. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make sure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for when you can’t be there. I work fully remote, which gives me a stable, flexible schedule. I’m looking to give back and make a difference and caring for pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. Being able to help other pet parents while spending time with animals feels like a perfect fit for both my heart and my daily routine. If you live fairly close by, my schedule can be more flexible than what I was able to put in the calendar within the app - just shoot me a message! I take pride in being reliable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I know how important it is to earn both your trust and your pup’s tail wags.

“Morgan is great with our family dog she comes Monday through Friday to walk her and Lola is so excited to see her. She wipes her off when it rains and fills her water bowl. My parents are senior citizens so it helps so much having her assist with Lola!”

“Victoria was awesome! She took my 6 month puppy and 5 year old dog on walks and played with them. Didn’t have to worry about a thing with Victoria taking care of them.”

About: Hi nice to meet you all! I started doing Rover because I use to work in vet med and have missed getting to work with animals and their owners. I love working with animals and greatly enjoy the time I spend with them. I do work full time so I do Rover on my off days and before/after my full time job. I have experience caring for not only dogs and cats but small pets also(this includes parrots, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, rats, mice, gerbils). I am always available to answer questions to pet parents about how their pet is doing in my care, and willing to accommodate additional care instructions as well. While your pet is in my care you will receive a Rover card from each visit/stay with photos provided. I am trained in pet CPR and have experience with senior pets and any medication needs that your pet may have. I am also experienced with shy pets as well and will always allow your pet to take their time to get to know me and warm up to me. My number one goal is that your pet is comfortable, happy and healthy while in my care. I do require a meet and greet to ensure that your pet is comfortable with me and a good fit as well. House Sitting. I have recently reopened up house sitting services in your home. I am available each day to ensure your pets and home are taken care. walks if asked for by the owner(no additional charge for these!), play time, food and water checks and any medications administered if needed. Small Pet Care I also have experience caring for small pets and birds if you need your small furry or feathered ones looked after while you are away. I have experience with birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, rats and mice. Care for these guys will include food and water checks, attention and if needed a spot clean of their cage as well, along with any medications needed if these are required. Boarding/Day Care I have just opened up boarding and daycare(daycare only on select days when I am not working my full time job). Boarding requirements include any dog under 35lbs due to having cats that can be skittish around larger dogs. Your dog must get along with cats and small animals and be okay with being home alone for a few hours a day. Up to date on vaccines and a trial visit will be required to ensure your dog is a good fit to stay with us. Dog Training. I am currently finishing a course through Good Pup offered by Rover and am so excited to be offering training to existing and new clients once I complete my certification! I do work full time but I do have availability before and after work to care for pets and am available on my off days as well for pet care. I will always ensure to respect your home and ensure it is in the same condition as when you left your pet in my care.

About: I’ve had dogs and other animals my whole life. Their love is never ending, and I love giving it right back—whether we’re walking, playing, or just cuddling. When I travel, I prefer my pets to stay in their own home where they’re comfortable, and I want to help you give your pets that same comfort too. I work remotely, so I’m flexible with my schedule and can stop by—or even stay—to keep your pet company during the day so they’re not home alone. I know how hard it is when we’re out of town and our dogs are by themselves for too long. Even just having some company makes all the difference. Keeping your pet safe is super important to me. I make sure to learn what they need, watch them closely on walks and play, and lock up your home when I’m done. I’ll send updates and pics so you can chill knowing your pet’s in good hands.

“My dog is so happy to see Mikey for her walks! Had to take a personal rest due to an injury. Mikey saved mine and her sanity! Will definitely be using his services in the future if needed.”
