Dog Walking Edison Park

“Mary was so great with Milo, especially for his first walk with Rover ? can tell she really has a passion for dogs and making sure they feel comfortable. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly walker/sitter!”

“Elva took her time to get to know Churro and listen to what some of his issues were. When our puppy came back from his walk he slept for a long time. We will be definitely rebooking in the future. ❤️”

About: Hello! I'm a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Throughout my life, I've shared my home with six dogs of my own and several foster dogs. Additionally, I have experience raising puppies, caring for senior pets, and supporting animals with different needs and temperaments. Years ago, I worked in a veterinary clinic, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals and assisting with their medical needs. Because of that experience, I am comfortable administering medications, including pills and injections, if needed. I currently work primarily from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. Your pet will never be left alone for more than six hours, and in most cases, they'll enjoy having me nearby throughout the day. I live in a single-family home with a secure fence around the whole property, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, play, explore, and burn off energy. I have my own dog, River, about half the time, as I share custody with my ex. River is wonderful with other dogs; her favorite thing is creating a "puppy pile" by curling up next to—or sometimes right on top of—whoever happens to be nearby. If your dog enjoys canine companionship, they'll likely have a new cuddle buddy. My love for animals extends beyond dogs. I adopted an elderly cat from a family friend who could no longer care for her, and I also adopted a turtle from a friend who moved. My turtle now enjoys a comfortable home in a spacious 100-gallon aquarium. Providing animals with safe, enriching environments is something I genuinely enjoy. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you're away. Pet parents describe me as patient, caring, responsible, and communicative. I believe regular updates and clear communication provide peace of mind, and I'll treat your pet with the same kindness and attention I give my own animals. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home most days. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and potty breaks throughout the day. On the days I go into the office, I am never gone all day—typically no more than six hours at a time. When caring for dogs in my home, I provide frequent opportunities for them to play and go potty in my fully fenced yard. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure by maintaining a consistent routine, providing fresh water, feeding them according to their schedule, and giving them plenty of attention and enrichment. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals that require medication, including administering pills and injections when needed. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow the routines and instructions provided. I know that pets are often most comfortable when their schedules remain consistent, so I prioritize maintaining their normal feeding, exercise, medication, and bedtime routines. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they are away.

“Jackie has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She’s always on time, reliable, and has taken the time to really get to know each of them. Her patience and dedication have even helped with some training along the way! We’ve had a consistently positive experience and truly appreciate the care and attention she gives. Would recommend, thank you!”

About: I live near a walking trail for those that like a nice stroll, or for those that don’t I also have a few comfy couches to relax on. As a foster pet parent, I’m familiar with providing medications if needed. I typically work from home and am able to care for your pet while you’re away. My cats are friendly and use to foster cats so they’ll either play with your cat our leave them be. No matter what, your cat will not be alone. My home has multiple floors with large litter boxes on each floor, there is plenty of space and lots to explore. We have different dietary needs for our cats so I can definitely accommodate any specific dietary needs.

About: I am a dog lover who would love to watch over your pet while you’re away. I have a house in Norwood Park where dogs have free range to roam about and a large fenced in backyard to explore. I am self employed and spend a good amount of time at home. I love dogs & want to use our space to welcome fun visitors! I am home most of the day & am able to let dogs outside & go for walks frequently. If I do need to leave, dogs have free range of the house to explore.

“Jessica is amazing! She came over early to meet nyx, sent updates and took our girl on long, sniffing walks while we were away. She was respectful and caring and wonderful!”

About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how important patience, kindness, and attention are to their well-being. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking walks, playing, and making sure they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the same love and attention I would give my own. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I moved to another country because of the war in my homeland, and spending time with animals has become especially meaningful to me, as I deeply miss the connection I had with them before. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. 😀

About: I have previously worked in a dog and cat daycare, boarding, and grooming center for three years, and have watched pets of family friends since 2018. I have owned and cared for dogs, cats, snakes, birds, and more, and my family regularly fosters kittens! I am comfortable with feeding, giving medication (not injections), walking, and providing care for all types of pets. My schedule is available for overnight care at your home, daily drop-ins, single visits, or walks. Please ask me about any accommodations you may need and I will see if I can provide them. In your house, I am happy to follow any instructions about leashed or unleashed time on walks or in your backyard, will feed on your schedule, and can spend time with your pet as much as you need. I am happy to try and accommodate any changes you may need to make, give updates with photos, and tell you any behavioral or medical changes as soon as possible.

About: Hi! My name is Carmen, and I’m 23 years old! I have over a year of experience working at a dog training facility and currently work at a doggy daycare, where I continue to learn about dog behavior, socialization, and care. I have a genuine passion for working with dogs, and one of my favorite things is training puppies and helping them develop good habits from an early age. I’m patient, attentive, and believe in using positive reinforcement to help dogs learn. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’ll treat your pup like my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time, so my schedule offers flexibility for pet care. There is always someone home to keep your pets company and make sure they’re cared for. In my free time, I love spending time with animals, so caring for your pets is something I genuinely enjoy! 🐾 Your fur baby will have plenty of space to feel comfortable and be themselves in my apartment! I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and at home. I always prioritize their safety, follow their routines, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I also have three cats, so I take introductions and everyone's comfort seriously.

“My dogs loved Jaime! One dog is very apprehensive with men and she warmed up to him right away. He’s also very easy to work with.”

About: I have had numerous amounts of animals for over 10 years. I have also worked at a doggy daycare, where I have had experience with all sorts of ages and breeds completing tasks such as medication administration to even simple ones like walking. I’m currently a full time student, working a part time job. While my schedule isn’t perfect for anytime, I’m available Mon-Fri mornings after 9:00am and weekends anytime. Currently at this time, I will not be offering any boarding services for pets that would need it. I am strictly doing walking and check ins.

“Nicholas is a fantastic dog walker! He's trustworthy, flexible, friendly, consistent, and most importantly he's truly great with my little puppy. He takes great care of her and sends regular videos of them playing. I can tell they really enjoy their time together. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”

About: I have primarily taken care of my pets, family pets, and friends pets. Many people rely on me to walk and feed their pets. I have friends request me specifically to look after their pets when they are out of the house either for the day or a long vacation. I work full time Monday-Friday but I am remote on Monday & Friday. Tuesday-Thursday I am available 6pm or later. Saturday I am available anytime. I am very careful and aware of my surroundings. I will ensure your pet is comfortable and safe. Before I take your pet for a walk or drop in for a visit we can ensure your pet feels comfortable with me.

“Karen has been such a blessing to Henry and I. He gets excited to see Karen weekly, go for a walk and eat treats! Thank you for all your help!!”

About: I have always had dogs growing up and I currently have my own dog who is 2 years old. I love caring for my pets, spending time with them, and seeing them happy! I recently just graduated college and am not working because I am studying to take my exam to be licensed as a nurse! I have plenty of free time and want to fill some of that time spending it with your cute dog(s)! I have a fenced-in yard that my dogs love running around in. I also make sure to take my own dog out for walks early in the morning or later at night so she does not overheat in this heat.
