Dog Walking Hyde Park

“Julia was absolutely wonderful with my pooch! My pup took to her right away. She was very communicative and flexible with accommodating my last minute requests. And with each walk I received pics and my pup couldn’t have looked happier! 😊”

About: What sets me apart is my focus on individualized care for each pet. I take time to understand their routine, personality, and comfort needs so they feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I’m reliable, attentive, and make communication a priority by providing regular updates with photos and messages. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible and organized schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, feedings, and check-ins consistently. I’m able to plan my day around morning, afternoon, and evening care as needed, making sure pets receive attention on time and without rush. I’m also good at managing responsibilities, so I can balance pet care with other commitments while still being reliable and responsive. Whether it’s drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or house sitting, I can adapt my routine to meet each pet’s needs and ensure they stay comfortable and well cared for throughout the day. I provide care for pets in their own home to help keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I offer house sitting, where I stay in the home as needed to provide companionship, maintain routines, and make sure pets are fed, walked, and well cared for. I also offer dog walking and daily walks to ensure pets get regular exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention throughout the day. In addition, I can handle scheduled feedings and basic care routines exactly as instructed by the owner. I do want to note that I do not offer boarding or training services. My focus is on in-home care and walking services, making sure pets stay safe, relaxed, and well looked after while their owners are away or busy.

“Thank you for giving Kaia lots of pets and cuddles!! We appreciate it!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs of varying ages and have always enjoyed it immensely. I no longer have a dog of my own but I would love to make friends with yours. I am working 3 days per week (not a set schedule) and have enough time to spend with some lovely dogs. My schedule changes week to week but I am quite flexible and hopeful we can find a good agreement for dog sitting/walking. My apartment is clean and spacious and perfect for a small/medium dog to stay at and play. I do not own a crate but also would prefer if your dog is properly trained and can tolerate being in open space.

About: I love both dogs and cats. I have been fostering cats for the last four years, from kittens to senior cats, with a range of personalities. I have also provided free catsitting services to the foster organization I work with. I grew up with dogs and am very comfortable with all kinds of dogs--but I especially love big dogs! I am a responsible law student with a flexible schedule as I study for the bar exam. I am currently finishing up law school, with only one class per day, so I have a flexible schedule that can work around your preferences. I do not plan to have pets in my home because I currently have a foster cat of my own! But I am very respectful of others' spaces and will leave it just as I found it. I can let your dog out in a yard or take him or her out on a walk.

About: In addition to taking care of my own three dogs, I have spent the past four summers working at a doggy daycare/ kennel. I have professional training and experience in taking care of animals of a variety of sizes and various needs. With over 50 dogs in our care every day, I am experienced in creating an environment that is safe, clean, and fun. I feel prepared to handle anything that is thrown my way !! I am a graduate student here in Chicago, so I have classes four days a week, but I can do walks and drop in visits for most of the afternoon, and dogsitting and walks Saturday-Monday. I am unable to take pets into my own home, but in a clients home I am prepared to work with whatever is available, including spending as much time outside as necessary and bringing treats and a slip lead to help with walking, training, and crating. For pets who prefer to spend their time indoors, I will make sure they still get plenty of attention and mental stimulation.

“One of the best I’ve experienced on this app so far. Bola was very effective, communicative and a joy to work with! Django loves her so much! I highly recommend her for your pet!”

About: I've had pets since I was 9. From 9 till now I've had cats, dogs, fishes, and guinea pigs. I have experience with dealing with pets that may have previously trauma issues also with pets that may need careful care like medince or special needs. Even pets that don't need extra care just pets that wants to have long walks or need a lot of play time . Pet care is an important part of my routine, and I make sure I have dedicated time each day to give every pet the attention and care they deserve. I plan my schedule around my bookings so I can be reliable, on time, and fully present for walks, feedings, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine and provide dependable, loving care. I provide a safe, clean, and caring environment for every pet. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any medications if needed. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, keep the home clean, follow all care instructions carefully, and send regular photo and text updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their family is away.

“Lisa "Rane" was fantastic with Bobby. She is prompt and personable. My dog received her well upon their first meeting. She and I developed a good rapport which led me to feel comfortable trusting her with Bobby. I will make her my first request when needing your service in the future.”

“Ava was great with my dog right from the start. She is very responsive and a good communicator, she is always on time. I highly recommend her!”

About: Taking care of dogs was the first job I ever had. Neighbors would have me come over after school to check in with their babies and play with them or take them on walks. I've also been lucky enough to watch people's dogs while they were out of town; including puppies! Most recently, I volunteered at an animal shelter where we would take animals for walks, train them, bathe them, and shower them with love and treats! Every dog is unique, and I enjoy taking the time to get to know each animal and their family. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to accommodate specific schedules and adapt to individual needs. I always approach caring for animals with safety and respect as a first priority. It is important to me that both the dog and I are safe, and that I am attuned to their needs. I also want to prioritize respect for other people's space and time, so I make an effort to always be on time and adapt to any individual requests in people's homes.

About: I am a cat dad and dog uncle so have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, changing and cleaning cat litter box, give lots of love and cuddles, playing with and caring for your pets. I have been a volunteer at the Humane Society of Missouri. I am an animal lover would care for your fur babies as my own. When taking care of your pet, I will send regular updates and photos so while your away you wont have to worry about a thing. If you have anymore questions or other requests like water your plants or bringing in mail while I check on your pets feel free to message me for further details. I look forward to meeting your pets! I work full time so I am available weekdays mornings before 9 am and evenings after 5pm. On weekends I am available any time and mostly during holidays. I have experience with animals personally and volunteering at animal shelter so I am comfortable taking care of cats and dogs. On a personal note I am a calm person which I think helps keeping animals calm.

“Q was great with Remi! She showed up ready to walk him and was prepared with any questions she had.”
