Dog Walkers in Justice, IL

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have experience caring for both senior dogs and energetic puppies. I understand the unique needs of dogs at every stage—whether it’s providing gentle support for older pets or keeping up with playful pups. My lifelong love for animals makes me patient, attentive, and committed to giving each pet the care they deserve. As of right now, I work part-time and only on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 7-9. I am available any other day or time of the week and can even go before or after my other job. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, I try to create a calm, pet-friendly environment and follow any routines or instructions closely. I always prioritize safety, keeping doors secure, avoiding unsafe foods or toys, and making sure walks are on-leash unless told otherwise.

“Nina is the best! I was nervous due to my puppy not having much training with humans and other dogs, but Nina literally went all in and won Bella over from the start. This is our first week having Nina as our dog walker and we are super happy!!!! Bella looks forward to seeing her everyday.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years — including my own sweet senior German Shepherd, who’s been my loyal companion since she was a pup. I’m most comfortable with medium to large breeds and well-mannered giants, and I have experience with daily meds, senior care, and reinforcing basic commands. I believe patience, consistency, and love go a long way with any dog. Whether your pup needs a potty break, a solid walk, or just some company and belly rubs, I’ve got you covered. My schedule is currently flexible, and I’m only offering drop-ins and walks so I can give your pet my full attention. I treat every dog like family — because they deserve nothing less. I recently moved back from Denver and currently have full availability for dog drop-ins and walks. Since I’m not juggling another job, I’m flexible for weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. Your pup gets my full attention every time — whether it’s a quick potty break or some mid-day company and exercise. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog — they’re family. I’ve had my sweet German Shepherd for 12 years, and through every stage, I’ve learned that what dogs need most is patience, routine, and kindness. Whether it’s giving medication, following your exact instructions, or just making sure they feel safe while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I’ll treat your home and your pup with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

“Thank you! She took very good care of my highly anxious dog and worked well with him. I would definitely recommend her and book her again 🙂‍↕️”

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm unavailable Monday through Friday between 10pm and 3am. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am also available on most weekends and holidays. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a very large, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment including lunge-line leashes to keep dogs safely on my property.

About: I’m the kennel manager at The Gold Leash in Naperville, however, when I’m not at work managing play groups; you’ll find me right at home doing almost the same thing with my mini pack! I have many repeat clients who frequently book with me because their dogs love coming over :) I live near a beautiful park with pathways for walking. I have a family pup who absolutely loves other dogs and he comes over frequently so your pup will have a friend if I have to step out and run errands. I also have a medium/large crate in case your pup needs time to calm down or simply just wants private time.I take frequent trips to the dog park and maintain an active lifestyle according to your dogs physical needs. I work very early shifts (5 am - 1 pm) and my boyfriend works afternoons so he’s able to take out the pups for their morning potty and I make sure they get out at least 2 more times before the end of the day. Our schedules align well with having at least 1 person home at all times. Feed all dogs separately if multiple dogs are in my home. Access to water 24/7, I have multiple water bowls around my apartment. 1 cage in case someone needs private time. Trips to the dog park under owner's consent.

“maani has been walking juno for several months now, and she has been awesome. She is great with my pup, and has been available several times at short notice. She is extremely reliable, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter/walker.”

“Jennifer was a lifesaver for us in walking our pup while we were out of town. She was very flexible and accommodating and did a great job communicating updates throughout walks. Definitely recommend and will book again!”

About: I am careful to heed owners instructions on how to care for their furbaby to create peace of mind and maintain a respectful relationship between the animals and humans. I work Full-time on the weekend. I can accept reservations and check-ins starting by 3PM on Mondays. Pets must be checked-out/picked up by 3PM Saturday. Currently have 2 Siberian huskies to entertain your pooch. Both huskies are well-socialized and engage very well with other canines. House is cleaned and sanitized on the daily to prevent any contagious illnesses. Exercise is done through nature trails in the area. If owners are comfortable with dog parks, I am a member to multiple private dog parks to ensure privacy and freedom to run around from other unauthorized/stranger canines.

About: I have many years of experience. I have a 15 year old puppy myself and I have been trusted to care for my family friends Boston terrier for 15 years (rip Oreo). I am a part time nanny and while taking care of three kids, I also have the joy of taking care of a large dog named Mack so I can handle some chaos. At my day job I have the pleasure of working with an emotional support puppy named Aspen. I have also stayed overnight on multiple occasions with 2 Saint Bernard puppies, 1 lab, and one pitbull/ German Shepard all at one time. I love all animals though! I am available evenings and weekends! I will update my availability every Sunday as that is when I receive my schedule. I have reliable transportation I respect everyone’s home, wishes, and rules. Every dog and family is different. My priority is to be as accommodating as possible per everyone’s individual needs!

“Melanie is great! Very professional and always keeps me informed of when she arrives, and of their walk. My dog always looks forward to her arrival and walk :) i would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have taken a dog behavior training at a local shelter. I have dog sat for family members for multiple days (in house and my home ) Unfortunately I work during the week. I am free Saturday and Sunday to pet sit or just to give your fur baby some love and attention for a couple hours while you’re away. I do not have pets of my own due to housing circumstances. While in a client’s home I ensure that all potentially dangerous items are out of reach and secure from the pets. I give pets their space when showing signs of distress. As well as make sure they have their favorite comfort items.

About: I am a person who loves cats and dogs! I enjoy playing with them, but also making sure your furry baby gets the proper care. I am currently working part-time day shift as a CNA. I enjoy helping others as well as working with pets! I am available mornings and most nights! I have a fenced yard, but also a cat owner. Please provide a crate for your furry baby if needed! If you have a dog, I will put my cat away.

About: I’ve taken care of my two dogs ever since I was a little girl, when no one else were able to provide for them. I love my dogs to death and enjoy being around dogs. Enjoying the company of other dogs is the reason why I chose this job. Pet care fits into my daily/weekly routine because I love walking/running outside during the day. It helps me get my steps in and I love nature walks. It helps me get a breath of fresh air and relieve my mind. Being around animals makes me really happy and I love their energy. My two dogs are more than enough to melt my heart so I cannot imagine what more furries will do! I have a nice tall fence with a perfect sized back yard for dogs to run around and play in! I have two friendly dogs who adore any company by any furry babies! But if needed to separate, I can always accommodate to that as well!

About: I am a dog lover who enjoys having fun with dogs. I am available for any and all of your pet’s needs. Your dog will have all the time for fun and exercise. I love dog walks, playing tug of war, fetch, and games like find the treat, toy, etc. Your dog will be well fed and walked to their hearts content. I am accommodating, any request you make can and will be followed through. I have a large fenced in yard and plenty of space inside my house for the colder months. Your pup is allowed on all the furniture, beds included. Playing is my favorite thing to do. But most importantly, I will treat your dog as it is my own. I am a college student so time is of the essence. I love dogs of all sizes, puppies included. I can pick up and drop your pet off if necessary for a small round trip fee. I care for my own pets everyday, their well-being is my well-being. I will surely care for your pet like my own whenever they are here. I make sure the pups are well fed, exercised, and mentally stimulated. By including my own dogs into activities I see the other pets become more comfortable to the point where they’re acting like my house is theirs.

“Thank you for coming out in the heat while we were on our trip just so our pup could get some outdoor exercise. We greatly appreciate you and how you care for our Chief!”

About: Ever since I was a kid there was always animals in my home. Currently I care for 17 chickens and a bearded dragon. Not the easiest but I love them a lot. I’ve been babysitting my neighbors dogs for about 2 years until she retired and I just can’t seem to get away from care for animals. I do work a part time job but it’s about 3 mins from my house and I get to go home for all my breaks to take care of the animals and check up on them. I always get weekends off I will take your animals for walks all the time. Anything they need they will receive. I will care for them as if they were my own.

About: When I come in contact with any other dog than mine. I treat them like my own and would do anything to see them smile. Currently I’m working part time however I’m trying to switch over, to volunteer in a shelter so I can add more knowledge about dogs and skills. The apartment complex I live in is perfect for walking around outside and to socialize with other dogs. The balcony is perfect for fresh air and a nice view of other buildings.
