Dog Walking in Westfield

“Trying out a new dog walker is always a little scary but Melanie I couldn’t be a better choice! She is friendly and great with dogs. She is very patient with our shy 1 1/2 year old pup who takes a while to get used to new people! Looking forward to using her again (so are our pups)!!!”

“We’re brand new to the area and I was very very worried about finding a good waking fit for my pup. I felt very comfortable with Marshall. He’s very professional and sincere. For the second walk of the day Sniper ran straight to him. He’s very attached to me so it was so it was relieving to see. He came back tired each time so that’s great! Thank you for taking care of my baby!”

About: I have worked intensively for 3 years in dog daycare with as many as 30 dogs in a room. Before that I’ve always been an avid dog owner and caretaker for as long as I can remember. I work mornings during the week, so I am available after 1:30 pm weekdays. I am very punctual and reliable, and deeply care for a dogs wellbeing! I prefer to care for pets in a client’s home, although I’m sure there can be some exceptions, although I don’t have a huge amount of space

“Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!”

“Denise walks our dog, Rico, weekly and he loves her! He does not always react well to strangers, but he immediately took to her. We really appreciate how she informs us on how each walk goes.”

“Emily is so great! She sent me lots of updates while walking my dog. I trust her very much and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future :)”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and have loved them all! I’ve had experience with pet sitting from 13 years old as my very first job and as well as having my own doggo. I have a very flexible schedule any day of the week. The only times I am unavailable are Mondays 4-8 and Wednesdays 5-8. Let me know what days are needed and I will most likely be available. I’ve had experience with all types of dogs from couch potato to escape artist. My priority is to have a safe and fun environment for your pet and provide the best experience I can.

About: I love animals! I’ve been a dog mom for 13 years, I’ve fostered over 25 dogs, & have experience cat sitting as well. I’m based in Cranford and grew up in Westfield so very familiar with the area. Animals are my happy place and I love babying and caring for them. As such, I’d like to offer my services to keep your pets happy with cuddles, playtime, and/or exercise while you’re away from them. I have a genuine connection with animals & would love to help them feel less lonely while you’re away. In addition, I can provide a quick dog massage towards the end of my stay if you think your pet would enjoy it! I’ve experienced all different energy levels and weight up to 80 pounds. I provide excellent service through my communication, following direction, timeliness, and genuine care of animals. I’m available on weekends any time. On weekdays, I’m able to drop in 5:30pm and after during weekdays. If you’re close to me, I can drop by early morning and/or lunch time. From being a foster mom to homeless dogs, I’m very cognizant of the safety of animals. I know dogs especially can be easily spooked so I ensure that I have a firm grip on the leash with it wrapped once around my wrist. My dog is a strong pitbull so I feel comfortable handling most large strong dogs. While I’m caring for pets, I talk to them like they’re babies! I’m very much guilty of having a baby voice, but I feel the animals love and respond to it!

About: I can provide loving, nurturing and friendly care for dogs of all kind. Showing compassion for dogs has been a life long experience of mine. My earliest memories are of my mother bringing home dogs that needed a home and care. I enjoyed having furry friends then and I still do! My schedule is open and flexible. Please notify me as soon as possible so I can adjust my social calendar as needed to accommodate caring for your precious for a baby and my new friend. I have a large unfenced yard for great closely supervised play time. I have a small fenced deck space for sunbathing or relaxing in the fresh air.

“Cassidie has been a huge help! She takes her time and truly loves animals!”

About: I adopted my first dog when I was 9. I took on the responsibility of her care for the next 15 years that she was alive. I have cared for other dogs alongside her as well. My experience with them includes feeding, walks, cleaning cages and outdoor bathroom instances, administering medicine, brushing teeth, bathing, playing, and lots of cuddles! I’ve never been afraid to get my hands dirty and make it my point to respect the boundaries of any animal in my care. I’m lucky enough that I work from home currently, so I have plenty of time between meetings to feed, walk, and play with your pets! I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment for each pet I care for. In both my home and my client’s home, I follow their established routines for feeding, playtime, and rest to ensure the pet feels secure. During walks, I prioritize safety. I believe in the importance of using proper leashes, avoiding dangerous areas, and tailoring the walk to the dog’s energy level and needs. I also keep the dog’s space clean, offer plenty of affection and mental stimulation, and provide regular updates to the owner so they always feel informed!

About: I have my own golden retriever, Rufus, who’s turning 10. He lives at my parents now that I moved into an apartment! Pet sitting comes second hand and brings me calmness.. it makes me feel like I’m with my own pup. I’ve never used a pet sitting site. The current families who will give their testimonies are families I once was a babysitter for.. but now all my babies are in college! I have 8 years hands on of pet sitting and over 15 in pet ownership! 🫶🏻 Update! 1 month on Rover and I’ve met so many furry friends!!! Excited to continue to meet more 😇 Update 2: I’m scaling back my schedule on Rover and am now looking to work exclusively with one long-term family for house sitting. After almost a year on Rover, I’ve really enjoyed building relationships and providing consistent, reliable care. I’m actively seeking a family that fits well with my schedule, as I have 4 families and am looking to add 1, so if you’re interested in a long-term, dependable arrangement, I’d love to chat further about how I can help meet your needs. Update 3: I am now back on Rover full-time and am looking for new clients that need help with dog walking/drop ins! Please check my availability and let’s chat if your needs match up! Thanks for considering, and I look forward to hearing from you! 🙂 Please let me know when your fur baby needs a potty break/meal/play time and I will be sure to 100% accommodate a time slot designated for them! Please let me know if any necessary precautions I must take while at your home, such as any gates or crates that must be used! Whenever your pup is off leash in your back yards I will also be with them outside supervising and playing :)

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life from the time they were puppies into senior dogs. I have also helped neighbors, friends, and family with care for their dogs while they’re away or unavailable. I am a recent college grad who is still applying to jobs so I am free pretty much and day and time to care for your pets! I am willing to go to your house as frequently as you would like. I am very comfortable feeding, walking, and crating dogs in whatever way you prefer

“My senior dog Cici felt comfortable with Jacqueline right away. Jacqueline was easy to connect with and arrived exactly on time for Cici's walk. She even sent me a picture on their walk. I will definitely re-book with Jacqueline. She was a pleasure to work with!”
