Dog Walkers in Coal Valley, IL

“Tia is very professional with my 55 lb Senior dog. My dog can be stubborn in his old age and Tia has provided excellent care and service to him. She is very good with her communication and I highly recommend her. Don't hesitate to schedule a meet and greet if you need pet care.”

“Bradley's kind and awesome to work with. He gave us updates and really seemed happy to work with my dog. Atamis seemed to love working with him and was very tired after their walk. I'm extremely pleased.”

About: I have 32 years of pet experience. I am owned by two cats, one of whom is special needs. I’ve cared for puppies, kittens, and senior cats and dogs. I have experience administering oral, injectable, and topical medication. I work full-time 8,5 hours Sunday and 10 hours M-W. I do have the option of taking long lunches and can do drop-ins before and after work and during lunch. I am most available Th-Sat. Those days work best for walks, pet sitting, or drop-ins. I always follow instructions on caring for others’ pets to the letter. Times for feeding and medications, whether or not other dogs or people are allowed to s hello on walks, daily litter box cleaning, etc. Respecting the pet parent’s wishes is very important to me. When pet sitting I am as unobtrusive as possible, cleaning up after myself, and do my best to leave the house exactly as I found it.

“Jenna is a very attentive dog walker and she truly cares about the well-being of your dog. Also very flexible and understanding when plans change.”

“Alyssa was awesome. Was in town at Element hotel and needed a walker on short notice. Alyssa stepped up and was prompt, professional, and took my pup on great long walks with great post walk notes and pics. Excellent service.”

“I can't recommend Katie highly enough as a pet sitter on Rover. My dog Monty was a 7 year old black lab with 3 legs going through chemo. Katie was reliable, caring, and always went the extra mile to ensure Monty felt at ease. She always arrived on time for our walks/drop-in visits. Monty seemed happy and relaxed when I returned home. Katie kept me updated with photos and messages during our time apart. Monty required a handful of medicines for his pain and Katie had no issues giving those to him! Monty absolutely loved having Katie take care of them, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I will definitely be requesting Katie's services again in the future.”

“She does absolutely amazing with my super hyper nutjob of a lab and the communication is amazing”

“Megan M. has been our dog sitter for many years. When our precious Golden Retriever sees her car she becomes uncontrollably happy, even more so than when I come home. The wife and I trust Megan with Clarice more than our other family. Megan is a long time groomer, so has experience with many breeds.”

“Elizabeth is great, reliable and flexible. Our family can go on vacation without needing to board our pet. She gives my pup all the love and attention he wants. I would definitely recommend.”

“Meagan is a gem! Reliable and my heeler always looks forward to seeing her. She gives him a good workout, he comes home tired and happy. 😀”

“Dani is an amazing pet care provider and I highly recommend her. She cares deeply for animals and loves to be around them as much as possible.”

“Mary is very sweet with dogs. She loves to play and walk them. Mary has been around dogs for over ten years. She is very flexible and accommodating. You won't regret asking Mary to walk or take care of you dog.”

“Yamila took care of my Flaco for a long time. She always provided him with a lot of love and played with him. She has a great affection for animals and knows very well how to handle care and walks. She is amazing! Flaco misses her.”

“Addie is a very loving and caring companion for my dog when I am away. She always makes sure to follow his potty schedule and get him the exercise and stimulation he requires to stay level headed 😉”

“Taylors the best! She has cared for our horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, barn cats and indoor dogs. She never misses a beat and always treats them as her own! We always come home to happy and well cared for pets. Taylor is reliable and hardworking. Jonna H”

About: I’m a total animal lover and have lots of experience with many different kinds of animals. I look forward to helping pets feel safe, loved and cared for while their owners are away. I will go the extra mile for your pets ALWAYS! I’m a photographer so my schedule is very flexible with my photo sessions usually only lasting one hour. I am home editing most of the time and free to give animals the quality time and care that they need. I live in a 3 level town house where I have watched several cats and dogs. I have a yard that is not fenced in but two blocks away is a large hidden field where we like to play fetch and sometimes we go several times a day to burn some energy.

“Amara is incredibly attentive and hands on when it comes to pet sitting. We have a cat who is extremely hyper active and needs special attention when it comes to his eating patterns — and Amara handled him with ease. On top of that, Amara would send us daily updates and pictures of our cat while we were on vacation and we didn’t even have to ask her to do it. She gave us so much peace of mind and we are thankful for that! 10/10 would hire Amara again. Which surprise, we already did!”

“Hannah did a great job with our two Old English Sheepdogs! We’ll definitely look to hire her again.”

About: I grew up always being around dogs, from terriers to German Shepherds. I was the go-to person for my family and coworkers when it came to caring and walking their pets. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about a year, so I have a lot of experience handling all shapes and sizes of pups! I’m looking to walk a few dogs before I begin pursuing my Bachelor’s next fall. I’m currently finishing up my AA, which means that I’m mostly only available during the summer. I work mornings from 8am-12pm. Beyond that, I try to be very flexible! I am currently not offering to host animals in my home. If that changes in the future, however, I have a very friendly dog and four cats with a fenced-in yard. When entering someone else’s home, my primary goal is to be respectful and safe. I will work with you to set clear boundaries and expectations for the care of your pets, and I will do my best to meet those expectations. I am offering drop-ins, but I will only consider staying overnight on a case-to-case basis.

“Mariah is AMAZING. She’s watched over my babies (3 chihuahuas) every time that I’ve gone on vacation for the last 5 years. I specifically schedule my vacations around hers so that she can be the one to take care of them while I’m gone!”
