Dog Walking Evergreen Park

“With the busy schedules my husband and I have, we use Melissa weekly for recurring walks. She is great about picking up extra walks when we need, so our fur baby has some consistency with all traveling I do for work. Bruno loves her and I love the peace of mind she gives us! Thanks Melissa for all you do!”

“Gionna was great! From the first message I sent to inquire through the last message after her last walk with Roxy! Her communication was spot on and her care for Roxy was very assuring. She came for a meet and greet since she was Roxy’s first walker. They hit it off and had great walks while I was gone making me more relaxed and less worried to enjoy my weekend away. Thank you Gionna, we can’t wait to work with you again!”

About: I enjoy being with pups and getting them outside! I have a 13 year old chihuahua mix who is anxious and dog-reactive so no stranger to dogs with specific needs. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule. I am available to check in on your dog or take them for a walk during the day, most days. My own dog has specific needs (senior, anxious, dog-reactive) so I will be sure to follow any directions to the tee. I want to make sure you feel good about leaving your pup in my care.

“My dog loves her - and so do we! Ellen is super flexible and enabled us to work odd hours this week and still get our dog the care she needs!”

About: I know how important it is to have a sitter you can trust and that will provide all your pet needs while you're away. I've had pets around me my whole life. I've cared for other pets while family or friends have been away and have become really good at reading different animal emotions and recognizing what they may need. Whether it be cats or dogs, I am confident in my abilities to form a relationship with your pet so they are comfortable with me and I will be sure your pet knows they are safe and cared for even when you aren't there. I work at a school so, during the week, I am available to care for your pet(s) from early afternoon (around 3:30pm depending on the commute) until the evening (around 9:30pm) and may be able to squeeze in some early attention before work between around 6am-7am. during typical weekends I can be much more available to check in on your pet(s) multiple times if needed. You can be sure that while I am in your house / on your property my only focus is on your pet and what they need. I will only access supplies or areas that have been "okayed" by you and you can be sure your belongings will never be touched, taken, or tampered with and your pet will be cared for and have all they need while you're away

“My Stella and I were extremely happy with Margaret’s dog walking services. My Stella loved her at first sight. A sixty-one pound dog can be hard to handle and Margaret handled Stella with ease. Always willing to accommodate changed walking times, extremely reliable and very friendly. I plan on using Margaret in the future. Five star service for sure!”

“I recently adopted a rescue who is having a hard time adjusting to new people. Kathryn did a great job with him! Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!”

“Elizabeth is fantastic! My dog Lela, is always well cared for, walked and played with during each visit. I love how Elizabeth gives daily updates and shows how happy Lela is. I never have to worry about her when she’s with Elizabeth. She has built a great relationship with our dog. She is extremely professional and responsible. I would recommend her services for anyone who is struggling to find a wonderful dog walker!”

About: I take in a family dog alot and have my own kitten, they get along and my babies know theyre in good hands and so are yours !! I work and go to school full time & i cut my hours at work to study more. I have more time to fit in a few hours of my day to help others who cant get to their pets routinez I know how important it is to feel at ease when someone else is caring for your pet. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your furry family member feels happy, safe, and loved. Ensuring pet friendly space and supervision, offering fresh water, making time for play or walk, gives animal the attention needed and can send updates to owners.

About: I have over 13 years experience doing vet assistant and vet technician tasks and skills as a volunteer at The Animal Welfare League in Chicago Ridge, IL. I have been employed as part of the membership and philanthropic department at Lincoln Park Zoo from which I learned a great deal, stemming from my biology classes on taxonomy to zoology, to specific animal facts and conservation of threatened animals. I therefore know a great deal of educational background on animal behavior. I studied psychology and comparitive human psychology/animal behavior with a bachelors in science from IIT. I have grown up with dogs, cats, and ferrets. At Southwest Animal Care Center, I bathed, fed, walked, medicated, and cared for boarding and patient animals. I graduated with my veterinary assistant certificate in 2018. After graduating from IIT, I became a kennel attendant and learned a great deal about how to care for animals. Pet care is a daily task for me as I take care for two little fuzzbutt ferrets, Icarus and Agatha. Icarus often wakes me up with his bushy tailed excitement. I'm lucky to have such wonderful critters in my life. Right now, I am only offering dog walking and off-site at client's home services. From what I've read from the anthropologist book "Inside of a Dog" by Alexandra Horowitz, animals, especially dogs, crave human attention so being attentive to an animal's needs is to me, what's most important. This includes communicating with animals to know when they need a bathroom break, when they want play, when they want affection and cuddles, when they want nappy time, being fed according to what their schedule is, and of course, offering healthy treats (if allowed) and new novel smells, toys, etc. I can manage 4-5 walks per day with one or multiple dogs at a time 5-6 days a week. This is my main job and I'm dedicated to providing top care as if they are my own. I take extra care to be a courteous and contentious guest in the owner's home. I treat my stay with respect and humbly care. You can trust me to provide excellent care and keep everything tidy and clean.

“My dogs and I love Mary!! My dogs are pullers on walks and Mary was able to walk them without any issues. She's responsive, kind, and has a lot of experience with dogs.”

About: Dogs gravitate towards me & vice versa I have loved and cared for two Wheaten Terriers for a total of 19 years and I don’t plan on stopping One day at a time, one week at a time I can adapt to any schedule. I like to stay busy so I am capable of juggling several jobs. I will earn your trust quickly The dogs will like me right away because I am playful. I will keep them active & occupied to make sure they are healthy and happy.

“Our dog has only been with us for 3 weeks, and this walk was her first experience with a non-family member entering the house and leashing her up for a walk. Even though Bing met Brenna the day before during our meet and greet, Bing was very apprehensive about the whole situation. Brenna was patient and kind. She took the time to get Bing's confidence and comfort level up before leaving the house. Brenna communicates clearly, she's punctual, and she's warm and friendly with the dogs and their people. Glad to have her with us!”

About: I have always been a dog lover from the first time I got my first dog when I was 6. I am great at training dogs new tricks and just enjoy having the company of a furry friend. I have been caring for my own special needs dog for the past 6 years, so I am very familiar with giving daily medication and monitoring. I have a fenced in backyard and a doggy door for those that know how to use it. I cannot wait to meet you and your dog! I do work full-time in education but I will be on summer break beginning June 10th. I will be at home almost full-time while on break. I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door for the pups that are trained to use it. My dog was diagnosed with Epilepsy over 5 years ago and has been on daily medication since. I am very familiar with giving daily medications both liquid and pill forms and monitoring for seizures. I have a large metal crate and a soft crate if the dog requires it, so you would not have to bring your own.

“Veronica was an amazing caretaker for my elder pittie. She connected with him quickly and clearly has great intuition when it comes to animals. She had great communication and made the whole experience stress-free. Thank you, Veronica!”
