Dog Walkers in Coles, IL

“Terri has been great with my 2 1/2 year old golden retriever. She provides loving and honest care for my pup every day that she is scheduled. I highly recommend her if you need someone to treat your dog like their own.”

About: I love animals of all kinds. I have had cats and dogs my whole life as well as help watch my neighbors pets while they are gone. Let me take great care of your pet while you're away! My schedule varies, sometimes I travel for work but when I am home I work from home so pet sitting is very flexible and easy for me. I can accomodate last minute bookings also. I have a large yard for pets to get excersice and I live in the country. My son is 12, very responsible and love pets, he is my little helper and would not only help take care of your baby but give them extra love!

About: I have worked with just about every type of animal. I worked as a veterinary assistant for five years and fostered for 10+ years. I have always loved animals and always go above and beyond for my furbabies. I often foster animals in need, as well as adopt animals in need. I honestly just have so much love and compassion to give out to all animals. I cant wait to meet your fur babies and get to know them better! Let me know if you have any questions! I am free most days with the ability to tend to your furbaby's needs whenever works best for you, as I am currently self employed and create my own schedule. I have a fenced in yard with lots of toys and room to run. I spend 2-3 hours outside (depending on the weather) with the pups playing fetch or other games.

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

About: I have spent my entire life caring for animals. Throughout my life I have had many animals from birds and Guinea pigs to cats and dogs. Koda, my youngest dog was completely trained by me in German commands. Working with dogs to learn new things is one of my favorite things to do. My oldest dog, Motley is a senior and the past couple years I have become very educated and trained on administration of medication and post surgery care. With experience from my own pets, I have many reliable references I have gained over the years that can vouch for me on my loving, dedicated, and superior care with their fur babies. I am currently a nanny and have almost completely open availability. I work Monday through Thursday during the day but can still do visits anytime! And I’m off Friday through Sunday so anytime those days as well! When visiting your home I am happy to provide any services you may need for your pet. This includes special feeding instructions, medication distribution, daily walks, baths, guaranteed playtime, and more all while treating them as my own with so much love! I am also happy to do drop in visits while you are at work or walks to get your babies steps in.

About: I’ve been around a number of different kinds of animals since I was a kid! We had everything from horses down to snakes! I’ve always enjoyed being around animals being able to care for them, even if they are not mine. I am the first person my childhood best friend calls when she needs someone to look after her dog Bailey, a very spoiled German Short Hair Pointer 😊 I have 4 children and they are all in school full time, so I available the whole day to provide care, love, and play time for your fur baby! I have a 9 year old dog of my own, that I have had since he was 7 weeks old. I will care for your pet the same way I would my own, within the rules and boundaries you have set for your pets. Safety is my number one priority. I will never put your pet in any situation that you or I, would consider unsafe for your beloved animals.

About: I have groomed dogs in the past, I am able to give medications if needed, and I have been around anxious/shy and more protective dogs. Currently I work from home and have 3 school aged kids. I have a generally have a pretty open schedule from about 8:30am-9pm with flexibility. I handle clients pets differently based on their pets personalities and specific needs while always making sure they are loved, safe, and properly cared for.

About: I started pet sitting when I worked at my first vet clinic. And, because I love animals so much, I have never stopped. I grew up with dogs, cats, ducks and every pet in between! Currently, I have 2 dogs, a Jack-Russell mix named Jake and a Beagle mix named Macy. They are extremely pet/people friendly and they love new company! Also, I worked as a veterinary assistant for a a few years, so I am very comfortable with administering medications and taking care of your pets special needs. I will provide whatever accommodations that are needed and I will make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable. Most of all, I will always keep an open line of communication with you. I know how it feels being away form your pet and I know the importance of regular updates and pics. I look forward to hearing from you and I can’t wait to met your pets! :) 🏡 House Sitting + Boarding 🏡 (Overnight) Evening - Morning; I do offer some flexibility, however there could be an additional fee if check in/out times are drastically different from what I have set. I currently work from home full time. This means I can fully dedicate all of my time to your fur babies and their individual needs. I will care for your pet/pets the same way every single time. And, I will always treat your pet/pets as is if he or she were my own.
