Dog Walking in Fuller Park, Chicago, IL

“Twix loves her so much! He knows her car at this point and is jumping for us to let him go with his friend. She is so amazing withy doodle who isn’t the easiest to walk cause he is a puller and she does perfect with him. I have also used her for boarding and day care and I know when he is with her he is so happy and well taken care of ♥️”

About: While I do not currently share my life with a dog of my own (it's a matter of being unable to adopt every dog I lay my eyes on!), I dearly love helping pet parents keep their dogs happy and healthy and preferably in their own homes while their owners are away. I love to travel,and love to spend time with as many dogs as I can possibly fit into my day. You can often find me chatting with others about their animals, and I am always interested in hearing about every little detail. I enjoy helping people get a greater understanding regarding the welfare of their animals, and sometimes bore my friends with random and obscure dog breeds, and what I know of their temperament and behavior. I'm proud to say I try to research as many breeds as I can so that I know what to expect, and hey, it's always fun to just know why and how a breed came into existence! I happen to also be studying veterinary technology, for the knowledge of nutrition and behavior, since surgery is more information than I want. :D I am also very happy to drop by or stay with your cats, and am quite used to the varying personalities of these small creatures: the ones who like to play hide and seek, the aloof, the playful, and the grumpy. I don't mind at all, as long as the cat is comfortable, eating, and using their litter box, all is well! I can work my day around your dog or cat, as I am a dedicated sitter, and much prefer to spend my time enjoying the company of cats and dogs as much as I can. I much prefer to stay with the dog or cat in their own home, as having their familiar surroundings help them remain peaceful, happy, and comfortable.

“Consistent, punctual, communicative, and generous. She shows up everyday in a timely manner, cares for my dog, and even gives complementary baths and cleaning if she makes a mess. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🤗 she offers a good range of services as well!!”

“Lillian has been great with my dogs and very communicative throughout the walks. She took the time to make sure they were comfortable, shared updates and photos, and went above and beyond with their care. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to work with my schedule, especially while I was out of town. I felt confident knowing my dogs were in good hands, and I would absolutely recommend her to other pet parents.”

About: I have 7 years of professional pet care experience alongside growing up taking care of pets. I have always felt a special connection with animals which carries into my pet care. With every animal I meet I prioritize developing a bond with them so they feel safe and enjoy our time together. I have experience with training puppies, leash training, and administering medication. My attention to detail and empathy prove me to be an advantageous caretaker. I will be sure not to miss any details with care instructions and will give your pup just as much love as I do mine. I understand leaving the care of your furbaby in someone else's hands can be stressful, but with me, you can trust your furbaby will be well taken care of. I currently work part-time with a very flexible schedule that changes weekly, so I have plenty of time for your pup! I have availability almost every day. I make sure to review all care instructions before entering the home. I always allow myself to get acquainted with the dog first then continue with service.

“Peyton has been great to work with! Friendly, communicative, and very gentle with our anxious dog. Totally recommend her for any dog care needs!”

About: For several years, I've helped look after the pets of my family, friends, and roommates. I currently live with 3 cats, have lived with a pit lab mix for several years, and a chihuahua as well. I've taken care of pets with various temperaments, from more outgoing and energetic, to more anxious and reserved. Every pet has their own needs, personality, and boundaries. I take this into consideration every time I care for a pet. I've puppysitted for both of my sisters, will routinely look after my sister's double doodle for weeks at a time, and we're always excited to see each other. While I do not currently own any pets, I'm a proud pet uncle who is always excited to spend time with people's dogs and cats. I am currently flexible to provide pet care on any day, weekday or weekend. My only constraint is that I'm busy on Wednesday afternoons from 2pm-5pm. I'm primarily focusing on providing house sitting, dog walks, and drop-in services for both dogs and cats. In certain cases, I can provide boarding services for cats in my apartment, but not for dogs. If interested in boarding services for your cat, please contact me and we can discuss if I can provide the right service for you. I live in a large apartment with 3 cats that stay in my roommates' rooms. There are a lot of windowsills for cats to lay on, a sun room, and cat toys as well. My roommates' cats have experience being around other cats, but dogs not so much. Therefore, I'd only offer boarding services for cats, where I'd keep the cat's feeding area and litter box in my room. When housesitting and providing drop-ins, I'll ensure your home stays clean, pet stays in whatever boundaries you specify (i.e. if you don't allow your pets on furniture or certain floors). I'll respect your home as if it were my own.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My many years of pet ownership has trained me for this opportunity. My Chewy is both happy and healthy. I’m recently retired. My daily schedule is built around the needs of my boy, Chewy. He’s walked at minimum three (3) times a day; my friends and family know the routine. I have a secure deck to allow fresh air and free movement with guaranteed security. I have a crate if needed, but think all dogs should have free movement daily.

“Zack is the perfect dogwalker! 5 stars. Very responsible, great communication, and a nice person you can trust in your home and with your pet. Highly recommend.”

About: As your pet-sitter, your doggie will receive the best care. I am a stay at home with an infant and a bonus child who is four. We are ALWAYS taking walks to the neighborhood parks and to the lake since everything is so close. Your dog will love the outings just as much as we do! My goal with Rover is to nurture my love for dogs. The extra income isn't bad either. I am excited that Rover allows me to do both nurture a fondness for pups and earn income. My first pet was a Labrador and Chow mix named Katie. I grew up in a family where my uncle and grandfather had Beagles for hunting purposes. Their names were also Katie. Family name for dogs, I guess. If you have any other questions for me that aren't covered here, let's link up, get to know one another to see if we're a good fit. I'd love the opportunity to go over what makes your pup special and make magic happen! PLEASE GIVE AT MINIMUM A 24 HOUR NOTICE BEFORE BOOKING. (This allows us to see if we are a good fit for each other and get any questions out of the way.)

“Nicole is very responsible, communicates well and is flexible in accommodating requests. Plus my dog loves her.”

“Manuela did a great job! My dog Ella really enjoyed walking with her. Manuela is punctual, reliable. My dog doesn't trust people easily but with Manuela, it was easy. Amazing! Thank you so much. ?”

“Patricia was wonderful. She helped me out in pinch. My dog looked happy in all the photos I was sent and sometimes even had his tail wagging. I came back to a happy pup.”
