Dog Walking in Galesburg

“Glen is doing wonderful job with our Sasha. She is more playful and happier in general. She makes him work to start but than enjoys the fresh air and is ready for nap when they get back. Couldn’t be happier!”

“Maeve went above and beyond!! She’s been responsive, understanding, flexible, trustworthy, and went out of the way to ensure my pup and I were supported best!!!”

“She's a 5 right off the bat since she is the first walker of 4 that has shown up for a booking!! My dogs love her too so that gives her a 5. My mom, who is 80 and can't really walk the my babies, was there to let her in and introduce her and she loved her too so another 5!! Thank you Nan!!”

“Katlyn was great with Angel. She was on time and reliable. She gave great updates for each visit. I will be using her again!”

“Continued booking BJ - as mentioned earlier she’s amazing! Was such a great help, flexible to make sure the weather wouldn’t be a challenge (whether rain or heat), so kind! My whole family loves her!”

“She was amazing with my dog, she made sure she had an amazing time at the park, took her out to get a pup cup and they snuggled and watched tv I got picture updates all day and my dog was so happy and so tired after her adventurous day.”

About: From teeny to massive, I can love, cuddle, walk, and care for dogs & cats of all breeds and temperaments. Blind, deaf, senior, tripaws, puppies, car-phobic, escape artists, I've watched 'em all! From dogs (pets) that were trained before they were even born, to the dogs you're terrified to let anyone watch, I'm your girl. Not only have I cared for them all, I've also owned them all. I know how uneasy letting someone watch your furry family member is, so I want to reassure you they'll not only get the care you asked for, but they'll get it with lots of love, scratches, and pets! I work locally and with very flexible hours, partially work from home. My schedule would be different on a weekly basis, but I have plenty of time to care for your pet, and am free every evening and night. You can absolutely trust me in your home and with your pets. Just like I'd treat your pets like they were my own, I'd do the same with your home. I can send photos (pupdates!) as desired and have endless local references.

“Thank you so very, very much!!”

“Kaitlyn is a life saver! Not only is she extremely good at connecting with animals, but she is unimaginably accommodating. Due to my flight being canceled, my return to pick up my dog, Zucchini, was delayed. She was extremely kind and helpful during the whole process until I was able to pick him up. I highly recommend!”

“Yamila took care of my Flaco for a long time. She always provided him with a lot of love and played with him. She has a great affection for animals and knows very well how to handle care and walks. She is amazing! Flaco misses her.”

“Taylors the best! She has cared for our horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, barn cats and indoor dogs. She never misses a beat and always treats them as her own! We always come home to happy and well cared for pets. Taylor is reliable and hardworking. Jonna H”

“Richard is best. Reliable and treats sham like gold. Highly recommend”

About: I have had extensive pet care experience over the years. I have cared for both dogs and cats, as well as smaller animals like rabbits and hamsters. I have experience with both indoor and outdoor pets, and I am comfortable with administering medication if needed. In my previous job, I was responsible for feeding, walking, and playing with the pets under my care. I also kept an eye on their health and reported any concerns to their owners. I am passionate about providing the best possible care for animals and I enjoy spending time with them. Well, pet care is an essential part of our daily and weekly routines, especially for pet owners like me. When it comes to taking care of our pets, we need to ensure that they are healthy, happy, and safe. This means providing them with proper nutrition, exercise, grooming, and veterinary care. As a pet owner, my daily pet care routine involves feeding my pet, giving them fresh water, and taking them for a walk or providing them with playtime. Additionally, I take some time to clean up after my pet, such as cleaning their litter box or picking up after them outside. Weekly pet care routines can involve much more, like giving my pet a bath, cleaning their bedding or cage, and checking for any potential health issues or concerns. I also make it a point to play with my pet and teach them new tricks during the week to keep them mentally stimulated and happy. Overall, pet care is a responsibility that pet owners like myself need to take seriously. By incorporating daily and weekly routines, we can ensure that our pets continue to thrive and live healthy, happy lives. Well, I think my approach to caring for my pets at home is pretty comprehensive. Firstly, I make sure to provide them with a clean environment, which means their area and kennel is cleaned as well as, beddings are changed regularly. I also make sure they have access to plenty of fresh water and nutritious food. In terms of exercise and playtime, I schedule a set amount of time each day for interactive play and exercise, in addition to walks outdoors. This keeps them happy, healthy and stimulated both physically and mentally. I also prioritize their medical needs by ensuring they receive regular checkups and vaccinations as needed. This proactive approach helps to prevent health problems down the line. Overall, I believe that providing a safe and nurturing environment, plenty of exercise and playtime, and proactive medical care are all key to caring for pets in a responsible and effective way.

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs, and others for years! I do have a dog and a parrot I love dearly and look after daily! Any questions feel free to ask!! My schedule is open and I work from home so I will be available consistently throughout the week! I am more than happy to accommodate any special needs! I have a friendly dog, and a yard, along with close access to the Marquette dog park! If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

“Wonderful and friendly will use again”

“Colin was super helpful and even came out to walk my two power pullers in slippery weather! The boys looked so happy in the photo he sent me! Thanks a million Colin! Would definitely book him again!!”

“Christine has cared for our two dogs, Chance and Sandy, on multiple occasions. In some cases she has cared for them for a full week at a time while we were away. She is always enthusiastic about caring for them. She is responsible and timely and makes sure they get great attention. They can be a little dramatic when we leave them but always get really excited when Christine is there to see them. I would highly recommend her to care for your pups. ”

“Bethany has grown up with and helped take care of a dog, cats, and a bird. She also took horse back riding lessons for a few years and placed well in several events. Bethany has always taken an interest in animals (even snakes) and does well with them. I believe she would be a conscientious sitter and caregiver.”

About: I have raised 2 puppies and several cats and I'm the mom of a frenchie. We love going for walks and being outside. My dog plays well with others and would welcome a new friend for the day. I'm just working part time right now so I would have plenty of time for a drop-in visit and a walk. I'm available Mon 10am-12:30pm Tues 8am-12:30pm Wed 8am-2pm Thurs 8am-12:30pm Fri 8am-2pm. Mon-fri I would still be available for drop-in or walks after 5pm but I would have my kids with me. Please reach out even if your requested time doesn't match my availability. I still may be able to accommodate you. I do not have a fenced yard which is why I'm not offering for pets to stay in my home. My dog is trained to stay nearby so we haven't needed to get a fence yet. I am able to accommodate walking dogs of all sizes and all activity levels. I can work with dogs who pull or who are easily distracted. I'm a mother to 4 children and a dog so I definitely have patience! I'm currently working part-time so I have open afternoons, evenings and weekends. I work 7am-1pm Mon-Fri, but I can be flexible with my start and end times. I will care for your pet like they are my own and make sure to follow all routines and instructions. I make sure your pet has everything they need and I double and triple check gates and doors before I leave.

About: I used to take care of my gym owner’s dog for a while every time they went on vacation — letting the dog out, feeding, staying the night with the animals, etc. I also haven’t known a time when my family hasn’t owned a dog. I currently work full time as a manager at a retail store, but I am off every Tuesday and every other weekend. I am willing to use my days off to take care of your beloved pet! I am comfortable letting your dog out if it needs to use the bathroom, taking it on walks, feeding it, kenneling, and much more. I’m pretty comfortable with most things.
