1. Stavroula P.
“Stavroula has been great! She communicates well and sends me several pictures of my dog Winston doing his business. I actually have two dogs. Winston was just adopted on Christmas Eve and he's a little over a year old. He isn't fully housebroken due to being found as a stray. When she gets here to let him out, he and my other dog Benson get pretty excited. She deals with their mayhem without complaint. I definitely recommend her!”
2. Connor K.
“Connor was fantastic! Our pup is high energy and very affectionate, so it takes a special person to care for him. Connor did a great job of making our dog feel at home while we were away and even FaceTimed us so we could say Merry Christmas during the holidays. This was our first time using Rover so we were nervous but Connor really took care of both us and our pup!”

15. Christopher J.
“Christopher has been great with our dog so far! He leaves thorough reviews and always makes sure he has enough water, which is very important given how hot Chicago gets in the summer. You can tell he loves dogs from the way he cares for them. He was also willing to come to meet our pup for a meet and greet prior to the walks which we very much appreciated. Looking forward to keeping Christopher on board as a stellar dog walker.”
16. Vivianna P.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of my Lassa Apso for 16 years and now have two senior kitties. I know how it feels to have your pet be a part of your family, which is why having the best care for them is so important. I have patience and love for all animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’m happy taking them to dog parks (if behavior permits), long walks and playing with them to stimulate their minds. I am highly responsible and respond in a timely manner. I also have a car and have no problem commuting. I have a very flexible job that can be rearranged to fit the schedule that I need. I also do not have any dependents besides my two cats. Before taking on an assignment I will ask you multiple questions to ensure your pets feel safe and cared for while you are away. Are there areas in the house they are not allowed in? Is there a specific place they like to nap? Any toys they love? Shoes on or off in the household? Where is the food/treats located?…
17. Karia J.
“Karia is always my first choice when it comes to Chopps,my 3 year old male Alaskan Husky. She is always on time, never leaves him unsupervised and always contacts me with any questions or concerns that she has. She was thorough enough to ask about the specific dog food my dog eats, where he sleeps (bed or floor), how often he needs to be walked and even gave him a bath a couple times. Her constant communication keeps my mind at ease. Best dog sitter ever!”
18. Jonah S.
“Jonah has watched my cats for years now and he cares for them as if they were his own! He gives them plenty of affection and makes sure to keep them on their routines. He is always on time and he always notifies you of schedule changes. My cats love when he comes to visit and there is no one I trust more to take care of my fur-babies when I’m away!”
19. Lesslie G.
“Lesslie is always on time and great with my dog. Very dependable and communicative. Will always book when available”
20. Threada Y.
About: I am a full time student at DePaul University majoring in pre-dental. I have owned 4 dogs since the age of 5 (2 Labs, 1 Yorkie, & 1 Pit). I am fun, outgoing, loving and active. I watch children often, so I am extremely nurturing and patient. I have been trained how to deal with dogs of all sizes, with the assistance of my father, who trained dogs professionally. Due to my science background I would do the necessary research to ensure I am fitting the needs of each breed I work with, so the dog and it’s owner are most comfortable with their experience. If given the opportunity I would love to work with your doggy, and I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon.
