Dog Walkers in Garrett, IL

About: Ive been around dogs a lot. I have 3 of my own. One named Hope. She’s more active, and needs alot of playtime. So I’m definitely good at managing that. One name is Oakley, he likes to be babied and cuddled. Ones name is Hank, and he is just the chillest dog haha. I already have dogs so I work 24/7 with my own. I have a lot of time on my hands so I’m free whenever. Anytime you just need a break I can come help, when you’re gone. I’ll do it. I give baths, I walk them, I play ball/fetch with them. I take them potty, feed them, give them treats. I do all the things it takes to take care of a dog, the same way you would treat a baby.

“Terri has been great with my 2 1/2 year old golden retriever. She provides loving and honest care for my pup every day that she is scheduled. I highly recommend her if you need someone to treat your dog like their own.”

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 11 years old. I have taken care of all kinds of dogs, all ages and sizes. I have always grown up with a dog, so taking care of one is like second nature to me. I have looked after puppies as well as senior dogs. I have potty trained puppies in less than 2 weeks. I have been responsible for walking, feeding, entertaining/playing, and bathing services. I am a University of Illinois Student who is currently working part-time over the summer, therefore I have a flexible schedule! As as student at the University of Illinois, I have taken multiple courses in Animal Science, including Companion Animals in Society, Science of Pets and Their Care, and World Animal Resources. I walk my dog Arlo in the morning before work, and will do the same with pets that are under my care. I live on a lake and I do not have a fenced in yard, but I will walk them often. I will walk your pets around the neighborhood which you live if I am caring for them at your house. My 4 year old Husky/German Shepherd mix loves other dogs and is very friendly. My dog does not require a crate, however if that is something that your dog needs, I can accommodate! If I am watching your pets at my house, I will require proof of vaccinations to keep my dog safe as well!

I would love to get good clients and do this full time . If you have any questions please reach out! Every dog / cat is different and requires different needs so basically I Treet my fur babies as family and do my best to raise them right!

About: I have spent my entire life caring for animals. Throughout my life I have had many animals from birds and Guinea pigs to cats and dogs. Koda, my youngest dog was completely trained by me in German commands. Working with dogs to learn new things is one of my favorite things to do. My oldest dog, Motley is a senior and the past couple years I have become very educated and trained on administration of medication and post surgery care. With experience from my own pets, I have many reliable references I have gained over the years that can vouch for me on my loving, dedicated, and superior care with their fur babies. I am currently a nanny and have almost completely open availability. I work Monday through Thursday during the day but can still do visits anytime! And I’m off Friday through Sunday so anytime those days as well! When visiting your home I am happy to provide any services you may need for your pet. This includes special feeding instructions, medication distribution, daily walks, baths, guaranteed playtime, and more all while treating them as my own with so much love! I am also happy to do drop in visits while you are at work or walks to get your babies steps in.

About: Background: I’ve spent over six years working with animals, but my love for them started much earlier. Growing up in a home full of cats and dogs, I naturally became the go-to caretaker in the house. That experience taught me not just responsibility, but how to understand pets on an emotional level. About Me: I’m a longtime animal lover with six years of professional experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and general animal care. While I currently live in a pet-free building, that hasn’t stopped me from staying active in the animal care world. I’m known for being friendly, reliable, and adaptable—especially for clients with last-minute needs or unique requests. I provide regular photo or video updates upon request, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and safe. Feel free to message me with any questions or specific requests. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently have open availability, so I’m very adaptable to you and your pet’s schedule. I often visit the gym on my free time to lift. I follow my clients instructions provided, and if there are no instructions, I make sure to ask lots of questions before being left with your pet!

About: I’ve taken care of PAWZ every since I was 10 years old. My family had four kittens around that time of age and I took the lead role into making sure they’re daily activity was met. I’ve also dog sat in the past few years while being a student on UIUC campus. I like to go for walks, car rides, or sitting on the balcony on a nice sunny day, so if your furry friend needs a pet sitter of interest please reach out to me. Im currently a student at University of Illinois UC and I work part time. Most of this time is during the day, but this is also negotiable . I love playing in and out doors with our friends in the yard or in the living room etc, while following your pet/home care instructions.

About: My family has had a rescue dog since she was a puppy and is now a senior dog. I have had my own 2 shelter dogs living with me full time for over 2 years so I have been exposed to dealing with separation anxiety and many different reactions. I know I will be able to exceed your pets needs and provide lots of love and attention! I am currently working full time, in office M-F so my availability is mostly weekends. Our household has 2 young dogs so after work I will take them on a run daily for their high energy. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat on a few acres of land so they are very active outside. I used to live in an apartment and would exercise my 3 year old lab retriever for about 2 hours a day! I love playing fetch and games with our animals and am excited to entertain your pets!

“Madison is fantastic, attentive, and goes the extra mile!! Cleo LOVES walks with Madie and her tail wags as soon as she sees her. She has been so reliable and consistent with her help and we appreciate her SO MUCH!!”
