Dog Walkers in Island Lake, IL

“This was our first time with Allison. Everything went smoothly and we will have her take care of Maxy again. Thank you Allison!!”

“Ally could not have done a better job with my 2 dogs...the older one can be stubborn and stand-offish with strangers and Ally knew exactly what to do to have him warm up to him by the end of the week. She was reliable and had great communication throughout her services. Not only would I give her a 5 star, but would highly recommend using her as well!”

“We have two PRETTY crazy pups...One 6 y/o boy shepherd mix and one 6 y/o girl shepherd mix. Natalie is an absolute pup magician! Our dogs not only love her but they get excited when I even say "Natalie's coming today!". She is so good with our two crazy pups and clearly knows how to handle any type of dog, in any environment. She is not just great at her job and clearly a dog expert, she is also an extremely KIND and WONDERFUL person! My wife and I moved into a new home and after meeting Natalie just once, I could tell I could trust her blindly - not just with my pups but my new home! She is an absolutely STELLAR care-taker when it comes to dogs and she handles my two 75+ pound pups at the same time, and makes it look easy. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone 1000x over. We are so lucky to have found Natalie and anyone reading this that lives in the area and also needs a dog walker/care-taker, this is your gal right here! Trust me! She's THE best!”

“Bill has been a godsend with walking our girl! We, the doggie parents, both work almost an hour away and can’t get home to walk her. He’s been so awesome and informative. Definitely going to keep using his services.”

“Jeanne is reliable and I can see she cares well for our sweet pup. I love the photos and report comments she provides after each walk. Thank you, Jeanne!! We feel so lucky to have found you.”

“Joe is so good with our Daisy. She takes a bit to warm up to men but he has always been kind to her and patient with her. He is trustworthy and he is great with our dog. I have known Joe for many years. I would definitely recommend him as a wonderful pet caregiver.”

About: I have had a family dog since I was about 8 years old and have been responsible for caring for animals for all my life! I currently own 2 Shiba Inu's and 2 cats! My dream is to be able to provide a safe and loving home for all animals that I physically can take care of. I love animals and want to do everything to ensure they have quality lives. I work during the week 8:30-4:30 and I usually can care for pets in the evenings or early mornings. I work from home Wed-Fri so my schedule is usually a bit more flexible those days! I am also available all day on the weekends and would love to spend some down time with furry friends! I am not providing in home services at this time. For drop in visits, respecting another persons home is of the utmost importance to me. I am trustworthy and respectful of belongings and your privacy, which is something I value myself! I am happy to speak more with you about any home related responsibilities during the visit, such as home alarm systems.

“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was out of town. She was booked for walks and was very punctual. She also provided detailed reports and pictures for every visit, which was nice to see how my dog was doing while I was gone. She was also thoughtful enough to refill the water bowl when she noticed it was low. I will definitely be re-booking with Sarah the next time I go out of town.”

“Eddie is wonderful with our pets, we went out of the country for 2 weeks in December and Eddie stayed at our house the whole time and took care of our fur babies. It was great for our dogs to not have to be anxiety ridden and be boarded or have someone just drop in.”

“Dayna was wonderful with our 2 pets! She sent great photos and was very caring! I know Belle and Buddy were in trustworthy hands! Thank you so much Dayna!!”

“We have had Carolyn G. provide phenomenal care for our Chocolate Lab a number of times! She’s so great…when we come home from our trips I swear, our dog doesn’t know if she’s happy we’re home! She’s sad when Carolyn leaves. Carolyn loves animals—especially dogs! I certainly would recommend her!!”

“Taylor was very flexible when plans changed and took in an extra dog for walking too. She used great judgement when the dogs became too hot to walk on. I appreciate her great communications with me throughout the booking.”

“Megan is a great dog walker! I felt so comfortable knowing she was there to walk my dogs when I had to work a long day. She took great care of them while I was away.”

“Brian did an outstanding job taking care of our “family member” Gage. He was able to follow all the directions (believe me they are pretty complicated) we had provided and did not miss a beat. Great communication as well. Will definitely use Brian again.”

“I call Annastacia the cat whisperer. Even my most shy, most reclusive cats will come out of hiding to visit with her. She has been the only caregiver for my animals (cats, guinea pigs, snake and fish) for a decade and I know that when I'm away all of my pets and home are well cared for. I never have to worry when Annastacia is on the job!”

“Jessica and Aaron have watched my dogs on countless occasions. At this point my dogs love her more than they love me! You will not find a bigger animal lover out there! Your pups will be in the best hands with these two taking care of them.”

“Joy is wonderful with pets. She developed a good relationship with my Broozer by taking the time to understand what he wants and not being too pushy. She is very loving, which makes Broozer adore her because she always has cuddles and rubs to give. She is good about cleaning up around my house and not letting hair get everywhere.”

“FIVE STARS - WOULD RECOMMEND! Angela loved and cared for our dog while we were away. The report cards were detailed and included multiple photos each day, which warmmed our hearts while we missed him more each day! When I say she cared for him, I mean she actually CARED! When he wasn't eating his dinner, she tried multiple efforts and then notified me of it. We were able to communicate and remedy it! She also took into consideration the temperature of each individual day, and what would be an appropriate time outdoors for MY individual dog breed and personality. She got to know his likes and dislikes, and played with him with his toys. I will be hiring her again! ?”

About: Hello my name is Dominic I am 23 years old and have been in the pet care industry for 6 years now. I previously was shift lead at a doggie day camp and now am working at a vet clinic. I have experience in giving medications and basic nail trims, grinding and bathing. I also have experience in exotic pet care as well. I have a small zoo of my own and am in online school. I work about 30 hours of week at the clinic and pet sit for family and friends on side the side. Safety of your home and pet is my number one priority. I would prefer a list of emergency contacts and clinic names that you prefer to use in the event I can’t get ahold of you. I always double check to make sure the door is locked and always do a head count of all the pets in the home before I leave.

“Shereen. Loves our dog..... and our dog loves Shereen. She is very good natured and works well with animals. We are lucky she is available.”
