Dog Walking Humboldt Park

“Stavroula has been great! She communicates well and sends me several pictures of my dog Winston doing his business. I actually have two dogs. Winston was just adopted on Christmas Eve and he's a little over a year old. He isn't fully housebroken due to being found as a stray. When she gets here to let him out, he and my other dog Benson get pretty excited. She deals with their mayhem without complaint. I definitely recommend her!”

“This is the first time we've hired a dog walker for Rambo, so I was a bit anxious. I asked isaac to walk him 3 times during a day that we were going to be gone. He came to the house a couple of weeks before to meet Rambo and do a test run around the block. The day we were gone he arrived exactly on time and took Rambo on walks that were even longer than we take him on. He also played with him and sent us photos. All in all a good experience and I would hire Isaac again.”

“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: I’ve had dogs all my life and personally have 2 cats of my own, so I have experience with both! In college I worked at a local humane society to help animals get adopted and after college I volunteered once a week at the local humane society to walk dogs and play/socialize the cats. I love all animals and know how important it is to have a trusted pet sitter for your animals. I work full time from home so have plenty of time for quick day time visits and don’t have to commute so am available to help after work while people are still traveling home. I spend my weekends with friends or at home with my cats so have weekend availability for walks or home visits. I know how scary it can be to trust someone else to care for your pets and love them how you love them. Safety is super important so I am always cautious to make sure your dog is safe on walks and home visits and that your cat is getting play time while also safely inside.

“Michele is a superstar! She is so gentle and loving to our Tory who at 14 takes her time on her walks. Michele is super dependable and so flexible to work with our schedule. She is the best!”

About: Provided feeding, companionship, and daily pet care. Followed owner instructions owner instructions and maintained a safe environment. I love taking care of all kinds of animals. I am open to anything. I free up anytime daily and weekly routine at any time of day only when I have to go somewhere else I care for pets by making sure they are safe control and we care for and provide fresh food and water. Give medication if needed. Take them for walks play with them and give them plenty of attention. I also keep the area clean and follow the owners instructions and rotation. I treat every pet like they are part of the family.

“Maya was great with my two dogs! She was communicative, attentive, and made sure they were walked, fed, and settled in before leaving. She also sent lots of great photos from their walk. I felt completely comfortable with them in her care and would absolutely book her again!”

About: 3 dog owner here, including a tripod. Two boys and a girl all came to us from people who could no longer care for them. Two were from former students and one from the husband of a colleague. During the academic school year my work hours are from 7:45 am to 3:00 pm. I'm a full-time teacher and I also want to play with your dogs. My school hours are 7:45 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. I am happy to work out drop off, pick up, hang out time and potty breaks. My dogs have front and back fenced-in yards to hang out and run around. They are able to roam the house all day. They go on walks twice a day and we have recently incorporated logic toys to keep them sharp.

“Victoria was so kind and communicative when walking my pup and had great pictures to share!”

“Christopher has been great with our dog so far! He leaves thorough reviews and always makes sure he has enough water, which is very important given how hot Chicago gets in the summer. You can tell he loves dogs from the way he cares for them. He was also willing to come to meet our pup for a meet and greet prior to the walks which we very much appreciated. Looking forward to keeping Christopher on board as a stellar dog walker.”

About: I was born into a family with 2 dogs and ever since then have had dogs large and small in my life. I have a passion for rescue pets and believe in a caretaking perspective of empathy and respect for all animals. My dog ladybird was a hunting reject that was starved and used in dog fighting. It’s been a long transformative journey of helping her heal and learn new ways of being loved. From a terrified animal who would run away at any sudden movement to a drama queen who wants to sleep with her head on my pillow. Seeing the dog she is today has truly changed me and has sparked a passion for giving rescue animals a new life. I hope, (rescue or not) that I can provide your pet with the same love and care that I did ladybird- even if it’s just for a few hours ;) I’m available all day every day! Usually I work full time but I’m currently in between jobs and looking to start a remote job in the next week I love spending time with them whether it’s through exercise at a dog park or going on a long walk. In the home I enjoy using pet toys to interact with animals otherwise just petting and relaxing with them letting them know they aren’t alone and being attentive to them when they are in need

“Super available, easy to reach, friendly, and accommodating! Preston definitely went above and beyond, even with some last minute extra requests. My cat and dog were in great hands and I’d highly recommend Preston overall.”

About: Dogs have been in my life since I was a kid. Here in Chicago Ive dogsat all tyoes of dogs, and 2 cats! Border collies, Labradors, King Charles and all the in between. Im warning you though, after a few days with me, they love me and we are BFFs. Im VERY conscious of owners preferences and instructions and they call me Safety Staci so no need to worry about anything happening. Not on Aunties watch! 😊 Ask me anything!!! I work from home and I take frequent breaks. We can go on as many walks as desired and I love to engage in play time. Im up around 8 am and go to bed around 11. I have one roommate who keeps to himself but also loves dogs and we play with them when they are in our home. I am the only one to do the walking and feeding and all the care. Nobody else really comes over (might have a friend for dinner but thats about it) and NO other animals will be in the house while your baby is here! I love to go on walks but I also have an awesome backyard that is fenced. I prefer to just not interact with other dogs while your dog is in my care, both in parks and on walks. Id rather avoid any potential issues and just keep your pet safe. I cross the street or take a different route if I see anyone else walking their dogs. Its just better this way when Auntie is dogsitting. 😊 My home is cozy and if you crate your dog you can bring the crate but I dont like to use it unless its something you use when you go to the store or something. But never while Im home and I generally stay home especially when I have your pet. All based on your preferences and how you normally do it with your dog. They can sleep in my bed with me I love the pup cuddles. Any questions? I work from home so Im home alllll day long!!! My individualized attention is always present. I dont have a dog of my own because I like to travel and this is the best for me to give care and attention to your pups! My yard is fenced and I live in a 2 flat. My neighbor upstairs is at work during the day so no worries about chance encounters with anyone opening a gate or anything. My dog sitting services are also landlord approved!!!

About: attunement is what i strive for with every animal in my life. i'm always observing and calibrating. your instruction for your pet's care will be integrated into this vigilance and result in bonding care. aiming to meet your needs and exceed your expectations. my career work is appointment-based and scattered throughout the days, leaving me opportunities to schedule care at most times of the day, and certainly open for overnight care. i prioritize your animal's care and safety is clearly of paramount importance. your boundaries and instructions are mine. whatever your preferences are with whatever resources we have!

About: Being a musician in the city Chicago, one of the best feelings is playing music out in the park on a sunny day as I watch people go by with their dogs. When they hear the music, the dogs get more excited than the owners. My best friend has a Miniature Schnauzer and whenever I go to visit them, she jumps on me and starts singing with me. This kind of alludes to my love for pets (especially dogs). My temperament is very relaxed when it comes to a high energy type of dog, because I understand that they, just like humans, need to feel loved. I'm very patient with any type of dog and I am much looking forward to meeting, looking after, and becoming best friends with your pet.
