Dog Walkers in Deer Park, IL

“This was our first time using Erica. She was great. She arrived within our pre set time frame, took Baxter on a good walk and played with him at home before leaving. I got cute pictures and he was happy and tired when we got home. She’s already been rebooked.”

Tracey W.

“Very responsive and reliable. Thank you!”

“Ravi’s the best, very flexible and Charlie loves him!”

“Kati was awesome, I highly recommend her...we have two dogs and they have never had a "sitter" stop by to take them on walks. The dogs loved her and she was always on time and flexible when I needed extra walks. Thanks Kati!!!!”

“Cathy is incredible! Right from the start, she offered to come meet my dog ahead of time and as soon as she walked in I knew she would be a great fit. She took the time to play with him, pet him, and let him get to know her. As a result, when she arrived to pick him up for his walk, he was happy to see her! This extra care to getting to know my dog (and letting him get to know her!) is so appreciated - especially since I have had other walkers give up on him. I would recommend Cathy to anyone who is looking for a caring and compassionate sitter or walker.”

Robert B.

“I am truly blessed to have Kaylee taking care of Abbott. He has anxiety and he just loves her and when she comes to walk him. She’s amazing!!”

About: I would do anything for an animal. Im fact, I have broken bones on two different times so they wouldn’t get hurt. I love them. I am looking for a job now and the market is horrible. I thought, what could be better than filling my days with animals to love on. I take care of my cat better than myself. I make sure he’s eating well, I grt the good bowls, toys galore and his own heating pad which he adores.

About: I have had a dog since I was a kid and love the companionship they bring to our family. Very experienced in grooming and feeding and all types of care that dogs can require. Have also had senior pets that needed lots of special care that I am always happy to provide. I work from home, so here all day with my Goldendoodle. Also have a flexible work schedule for walks during the day and in the evenings. Weekends we like to take longer walks to explore the neighborhood around us. I have a fenced in yard, a Goldendoodle that loves to play with other dogs, and three teenage boys who love to care for pets.

“Becca was amazing with our two dogs! She was so reliable and would recommend her anytime!”

About: I am fun, patient, caring, reliable and accommodating. I am currently owned by an 11 year old Sheltie and 7 year old Schnorkie who I love to walk, run, cuddle and play with. I have experience with dog-sitting and have cared for puppies, senior dogs (with health concerns needing medication) and other animals as well. I would love to meet your pup(s) and care for them as if they were my own:) I potty trained both of my dogs, so I am not afraid to take on the challenge of a puppy! I have a full-time job in Deerfield, but live close to work and have a 1-hr lunch which allows a lot of flexibility based on your dog's needs. Work hours: 8:30am-5:00pm Monday - Friday Lunch: 12:30-1:30pm; but can be changed based on you dog's needs I look forward to speaking with you and learning more about your furry friend!

“Jazalyn walks our 3 dogs on a weekly basis. We have a very old dog with some mobility issues that needs medication and a puppy so it is complicated, a lot of work and we really have to feel confident and be able to trust someone. Jazalyn does a wonderful job and we feel very lucky to have found her.”

Rebecca G.

“We brought Jessica to our house to meet our German Shepherd Dog Loki to see if she she would be up for the task of walking, watching and taking care of him at times. She was very attentive to his needs and we can see that she is very caring and loving towards dogs. Loki felt that as well and was very comfortable around her. We will be using her in the future anytime we need an extra hand taking care of Loki.”

Joe C.

“Bethany is great! Recommend her to anyone needing a reliable dog walker. Wrigley loves her and she has been taking great care of him on walks.”

About: I have helped my best friend (of 17 years) with his current dog and late dog with feeding, walking, playing, staying overnight, staying for an extended time, cleaning up after messes in the house, everything I can think of. I am always eager to help out so that you do not need to stress about a single thing. I want you to be able to leave your house knowing that your pup is left in the best of hands. I can be serious when I need to for any disciplinary measures you might have in place to keep it consistent, and all the fun in the world as well to keep your pup entertained while you are away. I believe in keeping dogs active when they want to be and letting them rest when they want to as well. I have helped out my best friend with some foster dogs lately, including a current foster pittie, and with their own Rover dogs they watch at home. I currently still live with my parents who are allergic to most dogs, so I have to come to your place. I unfortunately cannot have dogs over. I hope I can be of service to you in the future, and I look forward to meeting many pups soon! I just got a job as a supervisor for a grocery store, so I will see if I have a set schedule or not so I can help out the most. I still intend to help out here on Rover :). I have a ton of doctors I see, so my weeks are a little goofy, but I will do my best to update my calendar to reflect my schedule ASAP! I spend a lot of time at my best friends' house right now (my best friend and his wife) watching their dog and feeding him when they are both working. They have also had their current foster over a month now, so I feed him and shower him with love as well. I grow attached to dogs' personalities. I have also trained dogs using training treats to sit, stay, "wait" and "free" for eating food, "wait" and "come" for treats, how to ring a bell on the back door for potty with the cue words "sit" "gentle" (tap the bells hanging on the door gentle with their nose) "thank you", paw, and down (lay down). I am not saying I would be able to do this with every dog, but if you wanted me to try to teach your dog anything, give me the challenge! I love a good challenge! I would like to make something clear that is very important for medical reasons (I even have the paperwork to prove it because of how ridiculous it sounds haha): I am extremely allergic to heat and can overheat/faint super easily (within 5 minutes usually) so walking your pup in 90°+ weather would be VERY difficult. But ALSO, I am DEATHLY allergic to extreme cold. The cold can kill me. But as long as I bundle up, I’m fine. So winter walks shouldn’t be much of an issue :). I will always make sure to clean up after every visit, I want to make that abundantly clear. I LOVE to clean, and I refuse to leave a mess for you to clean up if it happened on my watch. I will always make sure to follow your rules for your pups if you have certain rules to follow. I will never EVER judge anyone for any rules in place. I only want to do what is right by you in order to provide the best possible experience so that when you get back home, your dog will be so happy to see you or asleep in my lap from playing so much. I truly do want to be the best I can be as a dogsitter, so if there is anything you want specifically for your pup, do not hesitate to let me know. I am very laid back and very understanding. I have over 16 years of retail experience under my belt, so I guess I just aim to make sure that the customer/client always knows they're worth it! I never mind helping out!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!

About: My name is Katherine and I have large history of taking care of all types of dogs and cats. I’ve taken care of small, large, seniors, puppies, non-trained and even dogs that require medication, you name it! From a young age, my parents owned a pet sitting business called Fetch Pet Care and I would always love to help by walking, playing, and eventually learning to train some pooches! I have had about 7 years of total experience taking care of animals and using Rover.com! In 2021 I started my Bachelors in Physical Therapy and have been in school since. I now have a break for the summer and am eager to get back into my passion, which is taking care of pets! In my home, I have a cat named Mocha who has a bit of a medical history. in 2023 of January he was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis). My fiancee and I decided to invest into a medicine called GS to save his life. After 90 days straight of injections, he is now cured and healthy. With that being said, I am able to administer any kind of medicine (orally or injectables) if needed for your pet. I am also able to train dogs at a basic level (teaching commands, potty training), as well as how to roll over, high-five or paw, etc. Being with animals is like therapy to me, I just love spending time with them. I go above and beyond to make sure your dog/cat has a relaxing and fun time! Since it is the summer time for me and I am currently not in school, my schedule is flexible and open for the next few months. There are many things to keep in mind when it comes to taking care of your beloved animals. A typical day with a dog involves walks, playtime, feeding time and resting periods. Based on what kind of exercise your dog needs, I am able to fit into any type of routine. If the dog needs an easy-going, normal walk with lots of potty stops, I would accompany that. If the dog requires lots of exercise and needs to go on a run, I am also able to do that. Health and Safety is crucial when it comes to taking care of animals. If the pet needs to have medicine administered I am able to present that as I have previous experience taking care of animals that need extra care and medicine. I would monitor your pet at all times and make sure it is living in a clean environment.

About: I'm a lifelong pet owner with experience and patience loving all sorts of pets, from a little kid I've always loved and cared for many types of pets, from the smallest to the largest, let me make your pet nice and secure at home. As I'm recently retired, I have the time and patience to meet your pet care needs, I'm a very stable and mature adult who adores pets. My care is personalized to each individual furry member of your family, offering them the same level of care and love that you yourself would provide.

About: I love dogs, I currently have 2 at home around the age of 5. I love taking them on walks and playing with them in the backyard. One of my dogs, Hope, loves to play with her ball but my other dog Rosie, loves to play tug with her toys and sleep under the blankets. I like to take care of animals with all different traits. I am responsible and reliable and I can help you out in a pinch or keep a regular schedule depending on your dog’s I currently go to Elmhurst University, I am a full time student. I am looking to walk dogs over the summer. I am available for one time walks or recurring. I also am available if you need someone to watch your pet while you go on vacation! I take care of dogs differently depending on their needs. I love to take dogs for long walks so they can get a ton of new smells. I also know some dogs need relaxation and pets, which I also love to provide.
