Dog Walkers in Indian Head Park, IL

“Morgan and John were lifesavers taking our chompy little puppy for a nice long walk to burn some energy in the middle of the day when we had to return back to work full time. We’ll definitely be using them again!”

Charlene & Jeremy O.

“John was great! Very reliable, came early the first time to meet a get a feel for Trixie’s behavior before her walk. Always on time and very personable. I would hire him again without hesitation. Thanks, John!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for a French Bulldog, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding, and just keeping them happy and comfortable. I really enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what you need. I can work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I’m also available on weekends for walks or drop-ins, so I can be there when it’s most convenient for you. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and at home, whether I’m in your space or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe and relaxed. I’ll stick to your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and anything specific your pet needs. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve.

“Cheyenne is great with the dogs, she takes great care of them and she’s very attentive. I know my dogs love it when she walks them. I really recommend her to everyone.”

About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have always had a natural connection with them. Friends and family often joke that I’m a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to warm up to me quickly and feel comfortable right away. I’ve also been living with my girlfriend’s dog for over 2 years, helping with daily care, routines, and building trust... to the point where the dog now chooses to sleep with me. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have. I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to be available throughout the day for check ins, walks, and quality time with your pet. I’m able to stop by during typical work hours as well as mornings, evenings, and weekends. I make pet care a priority and ensure your dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I’m attentive and make sure your home and your pet stay safe and secure at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly while you’re away.

About: I've helped to take care of both dogs and cats for many years, including pets of my own as well as those of friends and family. I currently don’t have pets of my own, but I grew up with a beagle-dachshund and a cat. I'm very responsible and organized and care deeply for animals. I'm recently graduated as a Doctor of Physical Therapy and am looking for some work this summer while I study for my boards exam and putting to use my love for animals! They will be in excellent hands with me! I currently have pretty wide open availability as I study for my boards exam, so I should be able to be flexible and work with your schedule! I can cater to whatever your needs are for the safety of your pet. I will take great care of your pets, whatever that entails for you.

“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

“Ann was able to walk our dog at the last minute and even came very early in the morning to meet him prior to the walk. Pippen loved her! We’ll definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. When I was 18 I got my own dog for the first time. Since then I’ve moved into my own house and got another dog and 2 cats. Over the last 7years I’ve had friends and family rely on me to walk and feed their pets while they were not home. I’m a very big animal lover and would love to be able to do the same for your pet! I’m currently working midnights as a community service officer part time so I’ll have plenty of time throughout the day to walk your pets, do drop on visits, and have your dog over for doggy day care . I’m available to walk your dog or have your dog over for doggy care any day after 9 AM except Saturdays. I’m very flexible with my schedule. Before walking your dog I’ll make sure the leash and harness are completely secured to ensure your dog does not get loose. Your dog will not be off leash at anytime to ensure your dog does not run away. If it is hot I will make sure to check if the pavement is to hot for your dogs paws. If you allow your dog to have treats, I can bring healthy treats to reward your dog for good walking behavior. You’re dog will be treated how I would want someone to treat my dog while walking them. If your dog is coming over to enjoy doggy daycare they will start off with a little walk and then we will spend some time playing fetch and running around in the house and outside. I have a French bulldog who is very playful and would love to spend some time with your fur ball! If you bring food for your dog your dog will be fed on time at the time you prefer. Your dog will also be given treats (if you allow it) and will have a fun time! We will also go to a near by dog park (if weather permits and if you allow it). I also have plenty of couches and dog beds for your fur baby if he or she desires a nap!

“Kelsey is an excellent communicator. She is great with Bentley and he is a handful, typical Golden with boundless energy! Thanks so much for helping on days I need to be away too long for him.”

“Phyllis has been a godsend!! We have used her twice to care for our dog, Maggie. As soon as we met Phyllis we knew our dog would be in good hands and she was! Phyllis met our dog and us to ensure it was a good fit. She provided consistent update and pictures showing Maggie was doing well. We would highly recommend Phyllis!”

Bernie S.

“Thank you Rocio for allowing our nervous dog to show you his playful side. You gained his trust right away. We loved all the updates and communication throughout your services. You gave us complete reassurance that our pet babies were in great hands. You showed great dedication and went above and beyond by doing other tasks around the house to care for our kiddos. We would be so pleased to continue to work with you soon.”

About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house stays ranging from a couple of nights to even a full week. While there are a few weeks I’ll be out of town, I’m happy to work around those dates and be as flexible as possible to meet your needs! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.

About: UPDATE JULY 2024, PLEASE READ: If you see that my reply time is incredibly slow, it's because my account was inactive for a while due to my dad being hospitalized. I had to help care for him for a long period of time and I was unable to reply to any messages on Rover. My dad is okay now and I am available for walks and sitting again. I was a dog groomer for almost 2 years. I'm well-trained in animal safety. I care deeply about all animals, so I'll form a bond with your animals. I'm currently unemployed, so I'll have loads of time to provide love for your animals of any kind! Just let me know what you need/what you're looking for! I understand the basics of taking care of dogs, cats and other animals just like most pet sitters. But I also provide what some sitters don't: love! I'm very sweet and I can give your animals great love and care. Plus, I'll provide some pretty amazing photos of them. If anything out of the ordinary does happen, I will do my best to help and I will contact you immediately.

“Franklin is so very excited for Sarah to show up! He loves his walks and playtime with her!”
