“Jason is a one of a kind dog walker! He is extremely knowledgeable about dog behavior and tending to obedience training. Our 9 month old Australian Shepherd requires a diligent, attentive, and assertive leader. When we met Jason for the first time, he was everything we wanted and more! Not only does he leave super detailed notes about her walks, but he cares for Luna with the same amount of love and attention as we do. We are so thankful we found him and our Luna is especially grateful! You will not go wrong if you choose him!”

“Chase is the best dog walker Ive ever had! His love of animals is obvious. He’s personable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond what is expected of him. I thank my ‘lucky stars’ I found him!”


“Connor has been absolutely fantastic with my dog, Waylon. He’s dependable, on time, and clearly loves animals. Waylon is always excited to see him and comes back from walks happy and well-exercised. I appreciate the updates and photos after each visit—it’s clear Connor takes his job seriously and cares about the dogs he works with. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible dog walker.”


About: I have over 25 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. They have been a big part of our family. We have volunteered at pet shelters as well. I would love to help take care of your pets while you are away. I will treat them like family. I am available during the week after work or around lunch hours. I am always available on the weekends. I would like a few days notice. I will be very respectful of your home and make sure your pet is well taken care of. I am very clean and will clean up any messes.

“Salem loves Obie and I couldn’t be more grateful! They were a joy to have over for a little meet and greet with my pup Obie. He is an opinionated sassy cattle dog and would not do well with a stranger coming in unannounced! Fortunately, he loves Salem and is getting more confident each walk they do. They always give me picture and text updates while walking! I could be happier with our new dog walker ! Thanks Salem!”


“Kyliegh was super responsive, friendly, and communicative. And she must've done something right with Banjo, because based on her report he was even better behaved with her than he is with me!”


“Stavroula was a good communicator and I really appreciated her accepting my last minute booking. I like that she took pictures of my dog during their walks. I can tell Izzy liked her too… he seemed confused that she left after the walk instead of staying to hang out 😂”


“Elaine is so kind and considerate with my little fur baby! She’s great at communicating and sending pics when on walks to let me know Gus is doing well. We love her!”


About: Hi! My name is Maiya and I have a passion for animals! I have been told that I have a big heart and I love to share that with any person OR pet I interact with. I was born in Brooklyn, raised in Charlotte NC and recently moved to Chicago seven months ago! I have experience pet-sitting and taking care of any dog or cat - from all sizes and breeds! My family has a have a seven-year-old short-haired chihuahua named Frankie., who I am obsessed with! I have had four cats previously before him. Amongst family and friends, I have been known to not only be loving and trustworthy but to have an amazing connection with any pet - even if they tend to shy away. At the end of the day, I want to make sure that they feel comfortable and safe with me. I prefer to work with clients who are interested in drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting services. Before I start working for you and your pets, I would like to meet you all before I start, just so we can all get to know each other and I can learn about your pets. I am also trained in first aid for dogs and cats, so I can handle any situations that come my way. I am a full time therapist but have a flexibly schedule on most day. Weekends I am mostly free and I have access to a car so transportation wouldn’t be an issue! I lived in an apartment building that has access to a nearby park and a walkable area! My home has a AC unit so your baby will feel comfortable and cooled - especially in this crazy heat!

“Would book again because Warisa is great at communicating with good timing and because walked my dog for the time I scheduled and did cut the walk short. She was honest that Codi didn't end up pooping which I appreciate. I wish she played with Codi for at least 2-3 minutes to get him acquainted with her as I mentioned that my dog loves to play catch with his toys but overall I would def book her again :)”

About: I've been raised with pets my whole life. I grew up with dogs and cats and occasionally lizards, turtles and hamsters. I've been taking care of animals all my life and I love doing it. I'm currently working part-time, with a fairly flexible schedule, so I should be able to work easily around my schedule to take care of your pets. I am very loving with pets. I know that time with humans is important for domesticated animals, so I like hanging out with pets to keep them company, but I also am able to walk, feed, water, and medicate pets as well. I already do all these things for the pets in my house, so it is second nature. In my clients' home, I will spend time with the pets to attend to their emotional needs, as well as taking care of their physical needs.
