Dog Walking Lake Forest

“Lindsey was great and I would highly recommend her as a dog walker. She took care of my 19 year old Beagle and gave him his meds and food while we were out. Great job!”

“Connor was great and left important information from his walk with Scooby, including multiple pictures that helped me feel better that everything was taken care of while I was away. Friendly and professional I would highly recommend him!”

About: I've had at least one pet in my house my whole life. I've always been the one in charge of walking them, feeding them, cleaning up after them, and the like. I've had both cats and dogs throughout my life so I have great affinity and affection for both. I'm currently in-between jobs right now, as the video editing market is troubles at the moment, so I have a good amount of free time available to me. I have a car and can drive the distance needed to take care of your pet. I would have no trouble creating, walking, or taking care of your pet based on your needs.

About: I've grown up surrounded by pets whether they have been my own or someone else's. In fact I can't remember a single segment of my life where I didn't have a family pet to care for and look after. Each animal comes with their own unique needs and interests and I'm willing to meet them where they're at and cater to all of their quirks. I've dealt with puppies and senior dogs so I don't mind cleaning up a few messes. I've had dogs of my own who were calm rambunctious or somewhere in between so I truly do love em all. While I do have more experience with dogs, I also have a precious cat of my own and am more than comfortable looking after your sweet (or not so sweet, like mine) cat. I am a college student and I do work, but I am available anytime Monday-Thursday and after 5pm on Weekends. Please reach out if you are interested in any overnight stays so we can discuss availability. I am comfortable catering to your pets needs. I am comfortable with any necessary meal preparation, walks throughout the neighborhood and potty breaks, and crating the pet if needed. I am also okay with administering medication if needed.

“Chloe has been an absolute greatest find. I am so happy with her care of Colby and how much she has gotten him to respond and work through different issues. She has been consistent and accommodating. I couldn’t hope for a better walker or care giver for my dog. She brings the puppy out in him even in this heat.”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifelong love for animals, my hands-on experience, and my ability to care for pets of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and temperaments! 🐾❤️ I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. Since I was 14, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and working at doggy daycare facilities. During my time at doggy daycares, I’ve cared for everything from large Great Danes and energetic Pit Bull mixes to tiny pups with big personalities! These experiences have taught me how to understand different behaviors, recognize body language, and provide safe, attentive care. I’m also very comfortable caring for multiple animals at once! Whether you have several dogs, multiple cats, or a household with both, I’m happy to help. My doggy daycare experience has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while making sure every animal receives the individual attention, patience, and love they deserve. I also have a special love for cats, especially those who may be shy, fearful, independent, or a little temperamental! Growing up, I’ve helped feral cats gradually become comfortable living indoors as loving house cats. Through those experiences, I’ve learned that earning an animal’s trust takes time, consistency, kindness, and patience. If your kitty is a little feisty, nervous around strangers, or prefers their personal space, that’s perfectly okay! I understand how to recognize signs of stress, respect boundaries, and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. The same goes for dogs who may be anxious, energetic, or need a little extra reassurance. I believe what truly makes me different is that I don’t expect every animal to behave the same way. Every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m experienced with feeding, dog walking, playtime, litter box cleaning and maintenance, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I also offer house-sitting services, so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment while I make sure your home is respected, tidy, and well cared for. Above all, I’m reliable, dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether you have one cuddly kitty, a house full of energetic pups, or a mix of furry personalities, I’ll do my very best to make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pets are family, and I promise to treat them with the same kindness, patience, and love that I give my own! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently attending school online, which gives me flexibility with my schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs! I’m always happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works best for you and your furry family members! 💖 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I always do my best to follow their usual schedule, whether that includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, or plenty of cuddles! I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes and will make sure everything stays clean, tidy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your beloved pets and your home. Communication is extremely important to me! I’ll happily provide regular updates, pictures, and messages throughout my visits so you can see how your furry family members are doing. Whether they’re enjoying a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or relaxing at home, I want you to feel reassured knowing they’re happy and receiving plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing your pets and home are in caring, reliable, and dependable hands! 🐶🐱❤️

About: I grew up on a farm. My mom rescued animals, so caring for animals is a right of passage in my family. It's not a "side hustle" for me. It's my passion, my dream, my purpose. I have a degree in Psychology, own two businesses and I'm a mom of two amazing kids. I have five shih tzus at the moment along with a variety of exotic animals. I have tons of experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea Pigs, turtles (both aquatic and land), and fish. When I encounter a new species, I go over and beyond to learn everything about them and spare no expense to make sure they thrive and happy. I have experience with puppies, seniors, special needs, post-up recovery, medications, bathing, daily brushing, grooming, nail trims, etc. Your babies are my babies and they will be looking forward to play time with me, giving you a peace of mind while you have to be away. 🥰 I own my own house cleaning business, so my schedule is quite flexible. I'm working mostly in a 15 minute radius, and I have cameras in every room, so I can check in on my babies and drop by if they need me. I have a large fenced yard and several separate play areas in case I have babies that need some alone time. Inside I also have gates and play areas to ensure your pets' safety and provide quiet areas if they seem over stimulated or anxious.

“Ana does a great job with Daisy! Daisy loves to go on walks with her. We've had Ana walk Daisy many times and we are very happy with her services. I definitely recommend her 😊”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was in high school! I had three dogs growing up, always had roommates with dogs and I just watched a friends dog for over a year while he looked for a place that allowed dogs. We have a large fenced yard with LOTS of room to run around and play. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I’m home to let dogs out as needed and allow them to not be crated all day! I’m home with my baby 6 days a week so I’m able to let your dog out as often as they need and we can go on walks as often as needed as well. I have a fenced in yard and a small relaxed dog here that loves to snuggle. We allow the dogs on our couch and when they aren’t resting we have an expansive, grass filled yard for the dogs to play. Dogs can either sleep in a crate or on a dog bed in our room with us. We also have a sunny back deck that our dog loves to sun bathe on!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the people closest to me in my life. Whenever a friend or family member goes on a trip I’m usually the person they call to take care of their pet. I have experience watching dogs and cats from young puppies/kittens to senior cats/dogs. I’m comfortable giving medicine and treat the animal I’m caring for as if they’re my own. Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine. I make sure my pets are fed on schedule, have access to fresh water, and receive regular attention and exercise. I keep their living areas clean, monitor their behavior and eating habits, and make sure they receive the care they need. On a weekly basis, I take care of additional cleaning and maintenance tasks to ensure they have everything they need. I prioritize their well being while balancing my other responsibilities, so their care remains consistent and reliable. I provide reliable care by following feeding schedules, ensuring pets have fresh water, keeping their spaces clean, and giving them plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I follow each pet’s specific needs and the owner’s instructions.

About: I have always loved dogs and I have decided that I want to be around dogs in my free time because it makes me happy! I am a soon to be retired school teacher and want to spend my time now with animals especially dogs! For the next 10 months I will be still working my teacher schedule and would like to get a head start on my next venture. I would be available for dog sitting on weekends and dog walks after 3pm during the work week and anytime over weekends. I have always had a dog growing up and very lovingly cared for my own dogs for the last 31 years. I enjoy being around all dogs. When I retire I would also like to volunteer somewhere for dogs. I am a retired school teacher and I am substituting teaching part time. So, I am available most days unless I have a sub job. I really enjoy being around dogs and cats. I have a fenced in backyard and one dog named Lina. She is medium sized and very friendly with other dogs. I would love to love on your fur baby.

“Caylen has been absolutely wonderful with Xena! She is reliable, punctual, and incredibly attentive. Xena adores her and gets so excited for her midday walks every day. I also really appreciate how communicative Caylen is. She always lets me know if she notices anything or if something happens during their walk. She is so kind and caring, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing Xena is in such great hands. I am truly grateful for everything she does and highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been with dogs and loved them since I can remember and I have had two of my own. I love spending time taking care of them, playing with them, feeding them, etc. If anything this is more of a joy to take care of them! :D I am very much available except for weekdays from 9:30-1:30 due to college classes. Other than that I am more than happy to watch your pet, check in on them, or take them for a walk. Unfortunately I can not house them due to my relative being slightly allergic. I have no concern doing anything asked for dogs even if it’s a strict schedule or routine. I know how some dogs need strict routines for example with feeding.

About: I grew up on a farm and have a lot of experience with a variety of animals. I Have had animals my whole life esp dogs and love taking care of them. I will treat them as my own. I am always active so they will have lots of outdoor and play time. I am work close to home, and only work 3 days a week. But I do have 2 older responsible kids willing to do anything. I am always on the look out no matter where they are. I will meet their needs and I have a big fenced back yard for them to play in

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Caring for them has always felt less like a job and more like something I was naturally meant to do. I’ve had a passion for animals since I was little, and over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to turn that passion into years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in all kinds of settings. I’ve been pet sitting for several years and have also worked in veterinary medicine, grooming salons, and doggy daycares, giving me experience with everything from everyday care and companionship to grooming, enrichment, handling, and recognizing the little signs that a pet may need extra attention or reassurance. I’ve truly done just about every job under the sun when it comes to the care and well-being of dogs and cats. Every experience has taught me something new about how special and individual each animal really is. When your pets are in my care, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, secure, loved, and completely comfortable. I understand that being away from their people can be stressful, so I do everything I can to create a calm, positive environment where they can relax and feel at home. Whether that means playtime and cuddles, sticking closely to their routine, giving them plenty of patience and reassurance, or simply being there as a comforting presence, I treat every animal as if they were my own. To me, pet sitting is about so much more than feeding and walking, it’s about earning their trust, keeping them happy and cared for, and giving their owners peace of mind knowing their beloved pets are in loving, experienced hands. Hope to meet your fur babies soon!! 😊❤️ I currently have a lot of free time most days, so I’m available whenever your pet will need me! I can let them out when needed, feed them, or even give them walks. Whatever you need me to do, I’ll be there for them! I’m willing to follow your guidelines for your home. Whether that’s let them out into a fenced yard, certain hours of play time, long walks, or the be crated at specific times during the day. I’m here to help you out and make your babies more at ease.

About: I treat each animal as if they were my own making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged while you're away. I go beyond just feeding and walking. I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s giving medication, providing extra cuddle time, or understanding quirky behaviors, I make it my priority to ensure they’re happy and healthy. Plus, I keep pet parents in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I am currently working from home and thought why not fill my day up with pets!!! So here I am:) I am also flexible in the event that something unexpectedly happens last minute. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine and environment, which helps minimize anxiety while you're away. I follow detailed care instructions, including feeding, medications, exercise, and playtime. I offer drop in visits, daily walks. I keep your home tidy and secure, bringing in mail, watering plants, etc. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing My goal is to make your absence as stress free as possible for both you and your pet.

“Lara is excellent!”

About: I work full time from home, and am available to keep an eye on your pup all day! I walk dogs every two hours, and have plenty of toys, and a a 1/2 acre yard. I live in a cul de sac with two other homes— it is very quiet and there is tons of walking room. I have a full basement and garage—- plenty of space for dogs to run around. I have a kennel if needed, but I am completely ok with dogs on the furniture. They love to sleep in the bed with me! As long as your dog is dog friendly and potty trained (accidents are ok but I try to avoid anything on the furniture) then this will be an easy stay. I have two small dogs that love to play! I can walk your dogs every two hours. I can feed on whatever schedule makes sense. Whatever you need… just let me know, please and we can make it work. I have a huge yard and two fur babies to keep your dogs company. I have a crate, if needed. Im available at home to keep an eye on your pup.
