Dog Walking East Side

About: At 13 I had the privilege of being a doggy mom, I wouldn’t replace the moments for a thing! I love dogs and they deserve to feel safe and cared for. ROD dog lover! I am now 20 and my bestie for the restie is my fur baby🥰 I am currently doing online school and have a flexible work schedule. Commonly work nights mostly during the weekends but am able to go in whenever I have 2 dogs! My sisters cat visits here and there. My dogs are both Shih Tzu and Maltese. 1 boy 1 girl. They are very accustomed to our home and are very well trained!

“Sharett was great with my little terrier Jazz. Normally she doesn’t warm up to people right away but she did to Sharett. She was also very flexible and understanding of my crazy work schedule and last minute changes. Sherrett will keep you informed and updated on your pet and you can tell she has a genuine passion for animals. I would definitely recommend her.”

About: I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats for years in different sizes and different care needs. I have watched dogs and cats for family members for days at a time I work from home and can keep an eye on the pets the whole time and take breaks for having to go at anytime that they need. I can feed them and give them medication if necessary. Also no open foods or dangerous things for them to get into. I also do not smoke and have a temperature controlled house

About: It’s all about honoring the autonomy of each animal when building a bond plus providing them a safe and nurturing place to live and be while away from home. I am a Full-Time PET SITTER in Chicago running a cat sanctuary where our pet guests become a member of a loving family right away. We provide a healthy and safe space where pets are always free to roam plus enjoy the amenities of individual cat houses, window gazing, and human play.

About: Hello - I’m Rick! I've lived with dogs all my life, and had a cat when I was a teenager. My girlfriend, Cristina, and I are passionate about pets and animal advocacy — we have fostered eight dogs a various ages and breeds through a local animal shelter. We've provided lots of care and training to help them prepare for their forever home and are familiar with administering medications to pets as needed. We live in a house with a fenced backyard and we are two blocks from a state park where we spend lots of time walking and enjoying nature with our pets. We’re excited to meet you and your pet(s) and provide the individualized care, comfort, and peace of mind every pet parent seeks!! For the safety of our pets and those we are caring for dogs we host, we highly prefer for the dogs to be crate trained but we can discuss if they are not. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! My girlfriend works from home during the day and I work night shift so someone is usually always home. Our schedules are flexible and we are usually able to accommodate special requests - don't hesitate to reach out! Our house has a fenced backyard and our guests are free to roam upstairs or we section off our living room area if they prefer to have their own space and couches to lounge on. We can offer crates for small to medium size dogs if your pet is more comfortable sleeping in a crate. We’re happy to accommodate special requests to ensure the comfort of your pet! For new clients, our meet and greets typically last about 15 minutes, and we can have your dog(s) explore the backyard or go on a group walk together. We are privately insured through Pet Care Insurance (PCI), in addition to the Rover Guarantee, so your pups are well covered!

“Amazing and very detailed walker! You won’t be disappointed 😇”

About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every dog like family. I’m patient, observant, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving dogs the attention they need to stay relaxed and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my schedule around being responsible, active, and consistent. I have the flexibility to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets attention and companionship. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels rewarding rather than stressful. Throughout the week, I make sure pets have a stable routine, plenty of supervision, and a comfortable environment where they can feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, supervision, and exercise throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away. I make sure they are fed on time, walked, given fresh water, and receive companionship and care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: I’ve had my maltipoo since 2020 and have taken care of dogs since then as well. I’m very organized and attentive to your animals needs! I just moved to Chicago so i have a lot of free time especially during the summer while i look for other jobs. I love having new energy around me at all times :) I have a very safe apartment complex with an enclosed backyard. Lots of toys for them as well to make them feel comfortable! I’m attentive and a very good listener to all of their needs

About: I think the best way to connect with pets is to give them as much time and love as possible. I like to figure out what each dog needs out of the walk. Some dogs don’t need a really log walk all the time. And some dogs need to build up how long they can go. Let me figure out what your dog needs exactly. I also like to take them to doggy parks to see other dogs. If they don’t like it all good we can just play with there favorite toys and cuddle. Also when staying the night they will have a good amount of space. I live in and apartment which I know isn’t the most spacious but most of the day we would be out .

“Megan was a wonderful addition to our extended pet family! She was on time and always sent every update on every walk with photos. She’s a very kind woman and my pets loved her! She took my one dog on walks and helped my senior dog go outside and was successful in keeping my escape artist cat in the house. She fed them right and was just very accommodating to their every need. I will definitely use her again and I recommend her to you! Thanks Megan!”
