About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have experience caring for both senior dogs and energetic puppies. I understand the unique needs of dogs at every stage—whether it’s providing gentle support for older pets or keeping up with playful pups. My lifelong love for animals makes me patient, attentive, and committed to giving each pet the care they deserve. As of right now, I work part-time and only on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 7-9. I am available any other day or time of the week and can even go before or after my other job. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, I try to create a calm, pet-friendly environment and follow any routines or instructions closely. I always prioritize safety, keeping doors secure, avoiding unsafe foods or toys, and making sure walks are on-leash unless told otherwise.

“Estefania has been polite and prompt and most importantly, great with our dog! She's an adult dog we adopted from a shelter just a few weeks ago so she's still quite timid, but Estefania has been great with her.”


“Danica is absolutely wonderful with Ms Miley. She’s super caring, & considerate with sharing pics & details too. Miley just adores her & seems to think that Danica is her bff 🐶💞😊”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I've been able to drive, along with owning dogs all my life! I enjoy taking them on walks, playing with them and comforting them when their owners are away! I also volunteer at the Weat Suburban Humane Society! I'm pretty flexible with hours, Mondays and Tuesdays are the only days of the week that I can't walk dogs during the day, however late afternoon still works! I have extra leashes, harnesses and creates if needed, but will treat anything with respect and care as if it were mine own. I'm flexible to a range of schedules and dog personalities

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm unavailable Monday through Friday between 10pm and 3am. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am also available on most weekends and holidays. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a very large, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment including lunge-line leashes to keep dogs safely on my property.

“Anna has been great with our dog Hershey, who can be anxious around new people. She’s patient and understanding, taking the time to make Hershey feel comfortable. We appreciate her reliability and the updates she provides after each walk. Highly recommend!”
