Dog Walking in Westfield

About: I’ve cared for animals ranging from rescued feral cats to anxious dogs and everything in between. My experience includes senior pets needing medication, high-energy pups, and even cats with strong personalities. I’ve helped out friends, volunteered for rescue orgs, and raised my own dog, Bronx, since he was a puppy. I adapt to each pet’s needs and understand their cues, whether they need a cuddle, a walk, or space to just be. Your pets are safe, respected, and treated like family. My current availability is Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 6 PM. On Saturdays, I'm available before 9 AM and after 1 PM. Sundays are more limited but still possible depending on location and timing. While I don’t currently offer overnight stays, I’m open to late-night check-ins and flexible evening visits if needed. My schedule may shift soon, but I’ll always do my best to coordinate around your pet’s needs! When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize their comfort and routine. I follow feeding, walk, and medication instructions exactly as given, and I always give updates for peace of mind. I respect your space, clean up after your pets (and myself!), and make sure they’re safe, calm, and well-loved, whether it's a quick check-in or an overnight stay. I work especially well with shy or anxious pets and always give them time to warm up on their terms.

“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! She has been patient and loving with my anxious rescue pup and I appreciate her for being so great with my Indy Girl. Looking forward to more walks in the future!”

“Payton and Andy took such great care of our new golden retriever while my fiancé and I were at work. It was a last-minute request, and we just needed a little extra help—thankfully, they stepped right in and did a wonderful job. Thank you so much for taking care of Millie! We’ll definitely be using them for anything and everything in the future!”

About: I work from home and travel frequently so I know how important a good sitter is! I have always had animals in my home and worked in a vets office years ago while I was in college. Good care and play time are important for my dogs and I make those a priority. I’ll treat your fur babies as if they were mine and don’t mind doing extras if needed; brushing, baths, nail trims etc... I even know a few minor grooming techniques :), but am definitely no professional in that area. I am easy going and would love to take care of your animals till you get back home. I am not afraid of special requests so please don’t hesitate asking if needed. Thanks!

“Katie is absolutely amazing! She walked out pup Marcie twice a week for months! Very reliable and we will miss her and so will Marcie!! Thank you for being so amazing!”

About: Hi, I'm Josh! A Stay-At-Home Dad whose Littles are in school now and I'd love to be a part of your pet's day in my free time. We are a cat and dog household where they are definitely a part of our family. I will treat your loved one as I would treat our own. Our dog is a 5-year-old Brittany who I've trained since we got him at 8 weeks old. He is a working dog and I'm consistently working on current and new skills in our home and in the field to maintain a happy, healthy and safe environment for him. Whether it's stopping by for some cuddle time or to take your pet on a fun walk with lots of praise, I'm excited for the opportunity to be a part of your four-legged friend's day! Things I will have with me while walking your dog: - Bags to pick up after if needed - Water for sips on the go - Small organic training treats (please let me know if not allowed) - I will have a lead/leash of my own but am happy to use yours if requested I have trained our dog to heel and I'm happy to help work on that by special request as well. We love the comfort and feeling of seeing updates and pictures of our kids at school, therefore I treat taking care of your pet(s) the same way by providing photos and updates so that you know they are in good hands. Please let me know if there is anything that your dog may or may not like while taking walks that I should be aware of. With our littles out of the house now in full-time Pre-K and daycare, my stay-at-home dad schedule has opened up during the day so I can be flexible. I am available Monday through Friday roughly around 8:30 a.m. through 4:00 p.m. I will always be on time and respectful of your service request. Making sure that your four-legged friend has all the attention needed to be happy and healthy! Safety is a major priority for our own pets, and making sure your pet is safe and comfortable is no different. At no time will your dog(s) be off leash while being walked and we will avoid any situations that may be unsafe on our journey together.

About: I always had at least one dog in my house growing up. Since graduating college, I have trained and raised 3 puppies. I currently have 6-year-old and 5-year-old Cockapoos. I am active and love to take the dogs with me on my hikes and travels. I am a homeschool mom of four, so my schedule is very flexible. I love to spend some time outside and go for a walk at least once a day. I love playing fetch and hanging out with dogs. My dogs are part of our family. I have a fenced-in backyard where they can run and play. Long walks, lots of sniffing, and getting fresh air are what happy, healthy dogs are made of.

About: Caring for pets has been a part of my life since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to look after their beloved furry companions.

As a dedicated college student, I prioritize my classwork—but my flexible schedule means I’m available for pet check-ins, walks, and sitting throughout the day. Whether it’s early mornings, midday breaks, or evening cuddles, I’m here to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. When I’m caring for pets in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

In your home, I respect your space, clean up after myself, and maintain a calm, familiar environment for your pet. I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know your furry friend is in good hands.

I’ve stayed in clients’ homes for days to weeks at a time, treating each space with respect and keeping routines consistent—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, or playtime. I’m experienced with a wide range of species, from cats and dogs to small animals and reptiles, and I adapt quickly to each pet’s unique needs and personality.

“Evan contacted me quickly once I put my search on Rover.com and he has been great at providing the dog-walking service. He prompted me to have a meet and greet so that he could meet my dog and find my house and then followed through on a Mon-Wed-Fri schedule of midday walks. He responded promptly to messages with changes and information about the walks and was always courteous and got-er-done. I would recommend him to others.”
