Dog Walking Wilmot

“Linnea took great care of Aldo! He isn't used to other people walking him but she made Aldo feel very comfortable and not nervous, and he was happily tired when I got back from a long day.”

About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.

“Thanks for taking care of my sweet puppy!”

“Deanne provided daily drop-in dog walking for my 1 year old golden puppy, Daisy. Daisy is full of energy and can be a bit much but she always seemed happy when I got home from work after having a walk with Deanne. Deanne was always flexible with hours, often accomodating change in dog walking times as needed. She always sent photos of Daisy during or after the walks. I would highly recommend Deanne for her services!!”

About: Hello, my name is Ayla. I have been taking care of a variety of pets my entire life. Whether that be my own, my families, or my neighbors. I started working in the pet industry when I was 17. I have worked at stores like Petco and Petsmart. I have also worked in a shelter taking care of the dogs. I take a great interest in POSITIVE dog training and clicker training. I believe our loved ones deserve the best we can offer. My pets are my family and I will always treat other animals the way I treat my own. With love, compassion and patience. I have never been a groomer but I love giving pets a good brushing to keep their coat clean and tangle free. Currently my family consists of two older large dogs and a puppy. I currently am a stay at home dog mom so I can easily adjust plans and care for your pets. I would love for you to consider hiring me. Available every day and any time, I typically have appointments in the afternoon. I take care of my 3 animals while my husband works and study herbalism in my free time. Whenever I take care of another pet I treat them as my own. With tons of pets and love! I will respect your home and leave it as I found it or better. I like to give dogs walk and play with them while I am visiting.

“Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our pup! She took the time to visit before starting and was very communicative throughout the week. She is an animal lover at heart and her warmth and care shines through. Thank you so much 😊”

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I know every dog is unique and needs unique care. I want to make sure your dog is treated with care and understanding while you're away! I have experience giving oral medications (both pills and liquids). I currently have an open schedule for summer! Whether you need a dog walk or multiple visits for feedings while you're away, I've got you covered! I want to build a trusting relationship with you and you're pets. For home visits, I will take time to ensure your pet is eating and drinking well, make sure litter boxes and crates are clean, and each pet knows I'm there to make them feel safe and loved. Is you're pet a little shy? No worries! I'll give their privacy after making sure everything is taken care of.

About: Hi! My name is Riley, and I can’t wait to take care of your pet(s). My connection to animals goes back as long as I can remember—I’ve donated to/volunteered at my local animal shelter many times, am an active member of PETA, and have been a vegetarian for 11 years now. I have always had a love and passion for all animals, but unfortunately my family has never been able to get any due to the severity of my father’s allergies. Now that I’ve found platforms like Rover, however, I am thrilled that I will finally have the opportunity to spend time with furry friends on a daily basis! I can’t think of any job that I would enjoy more. Despite never having a dog or cat in my household growing up, I actually have a very decent amount of experience with them. I have taken care of my neighbor’s dogs on several occasions when they’ve gone on extended vacations, and I am often the designated pet-sitter when family friends need someone to help out. Additionally, since joining Rover and Wag, I have gained a ton of experience with dogs, and I also have plenty of experience with cats now that I’ve adopted two for myself. You can rest assured that I will take care of your pet as if it were my own and give it all the love and attention that it could possibly ever need. Thank you for taking the time to read about me, and I look forward to meeting your furry friend(s)! I am currently self-employed and therefore have a pretty flexible schedule! Generally, afternoon/evening/night bookings work best for me since I do work late, but I can definitely make mornings work too. As my client, I want you to rest assured that both your pet(s) and your home are safe in my hands! I do my very best to make your animal feels calm, protected, and comfortable while they wait for you to return, while also making sure that they obey all of your household rules. I will be sure to keep them plenty occupied so that time flies by and they never feel sad, anxious, or lonely. At the same time, I will keep a close eye on them to make sure nothing and no one gets hurt!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and cats as well. I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve had golden retrievers, pit bulls, Rottweilers, and a mini golden doodle. We currently have a 3 month old Golden Retriever! I’m currently a Stay at Home Mom to a 20 Month old little boy and a 7 month old Golden Retriever! So I’m available all the time! My son is a huge animal lover already and will be joining me on check ins and walks so please keep that in mind! Your pets safety is my first priority. They will get plenty of love and play time from myself and my son! You’re pet will be treated as if they’re my own!

About: I am a lifelong dog parent, with over 4 decades of experience with many different breeds; ranging from Terriers to Labs, Shepherds, Huskys, Bully Breeds, Hounds, Herding dogs, Sporting and Working breeds, Toy groups, and many mixed breeds. I am home nearly around the clock, and committed full time to giving great care and attention to my highly -valued dog guests. I have spent decades frequenting the lake county dog parks; studying their behaviors and interactions with other dogs and with people, which has been an invaluable learning experience for me. I have a very laid back and easy-going approach and style that I have had great success with in relating to and connecting with dogs and their pet parents. I am very tuned in to their body language, and very adept at reading their emotions. My home is on a 1/2 acre fenced in wooded lot with a cabin like interior and country atmosphere that is both welcoming , safe, and fun for my dog guests, and I make it a top priority to treat your dogs like family. I also have lake access with a private beach if your dog(s) like to swim. I frequent the lake county dog parks and would love to take your dogs along if that is something you are comfortable with. I am very flexible - and typically available 7 days per week. I am available nights, weekends, and holidays. Ideally allow for two days advance notice. Safety is my top priority. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in lot, and a very warm and comfortable dog friendly home, that was once a summer cottage close to Round Lake. I am on a quiet dead end road which is very safe for walks, as well as freedom to roam the yard. My goal is to customize my services to meet your dogs needs, whatever they may be. I will treat your pets as I do my own- like family- lots of fun, exercise and plenty of TLC.

“Malachi was great with my pup (that is the important thing) and very eager to provide me with great service. I would recommend him to anyone. We had a few technical glitches, and there are a few thoughts I think I will share with him privately, but those don’t lower his star rating because he really did provide great service. He was very communicative, respected my property, and took great care of of my dog. You should book him and see for yourself.”

About: I love both dogs and cats! I've never had a problem with any one of them except for that one dog that keep barking and running after me when I was 10 lol, but turned out the little guy just wanted to be friends. I am planning on doing this full time, so I'll have all the time in the world to play with your pets and to make them my besties. There is a park near my apartment that will have your pets tail wagging whenever we go for a super fun and exciting walk !

About: I have 16 years of experience caring for others' animals. I worked for multiple horse farms until graduating college and all types of animals. Horses, donkeys, cows, big dogs, little dogs, pigs, bunnies, birds, I've taken care of them all! The bigger the animal the more comfortable I am with them. I work full time but I have a hybrid schedule that I make. I travel all over Cook/Kenosha/McHenry/Lake/Dupage Counties so if you're in that area I can tailor my schedule to spend more time in that area the week you need to accommodate your pets needs with daily walks or overnights. I treat all pets like they are my own. I take the time to get to know what they like so they warm up to me. Their favorite napping spots or where they like to be scratched. I want them to feel as comfortable as they can be while their owner is not around. I try to be the fun aunt that comes to visit so they don't notice mom and dad are gone.
