Dog Walking Lake View

About: I have a 5 year old standard female golden doodle (Casey) who is a high-maintenance girly but a big ball of love & joy in my family! I am typically available Mondays after 5 pm, Fridays after 12 pm and at any time on weekend days (Saturday and Sunday) to walk or dog sit your furry friend! I make sure my dog Casey’s bowls are full, take her outside whenever needs the bathroom, and make sure she gets good play time whenever she isn’t napping.

“Cori was a great help in making sure our pup got in a good walk, even during the coldest week of the year! Would absolutely recommend her and use her services again.”

About: I’ve cared for animals for over three years! While I primarily care for cats and dogs, I’ve done pet sitting for rabbits and hamsters as well! I’ve fostered cats and dogs and grew up in a home with two dogs and three cats! I have pets of my own and love all kinds of furry friends! I am a full-time student in college but am currently on summer break so my schedule is very open! I am excited to meet your pets! I have cared for pets in clients’ homes for over three years and ensure that your house is as clean and tidy as you left it! I understand the anxiety of leaving your pet at home and want to make sure I can ease your concern. I also send pet pics if you so desire!

About: As a lifelong dog owner and current golden retriever mom, I know how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog the way you do. I recently moved to Chicago and currently have a flexible schedule, which means your pet will receive reliable care, prompt communication, and plenty of attention. I'll keep you updated with photos and notes so you can enjoy your day knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm naturally attentive, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. I pay attention to the little things—changes in behavior, energy level, appetite, or body language—so your dog receives thoughtful, individualized care rather than just a quick walk around the block.

“Great communication and fast to respond! Happy with the service provided, showed up at the designated time for the walk and did all that I asked. Also sent some cute pics of my dog!”

About: I treat every dog like family and genuinely love being outdoors with them. Your pet gets my full attention, every time, I’m all about quality care. I am a middle school teacher and I am currently on summer break! I joined Rover because I have some free time in the summer and would love to spend it with some dogs:) I have a very flexible schedule since I am not doing my main job at the moment. I currenly live in an apartment on the third floor with two roomates who also love animals. I have an outdoor green area with fake grass I can take animals out to use the bathroom and play. I am also not far from the lake and many parks! I love to stay active and go on walks so know your pet will be taken care of to the best of my ability!

About: I’ve cared for both cats and dogs for years, starting in middle school and throughout college. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with dog walking, overnight stays, and daily drop-ins, so I’m comfortable handling a variety of routines and pet personalities (puppies, old dogs/cats, medications, cones, I have helped with all!) I’ve been living in Lakeview East for the past two years and really enjoy how walkable the area is—perfect for dog walks! Since my apartment doesn’t allow pets, I’d love the opportunity to get some quality pet time—while also you helping out! Currently I work 2 days in office and the rest I work from home. I’m luckily able to have flexibility with wfh days/start/end/break times - just let me know when you need me! You can trust me to be communicative and respectful of your space and your fur babies. If there are specific things that I can do to make you feel more comfortable I’ll gladly take the extra step.

“Anna is Murphy’s favorite walker! She always does a superb job.”

About: Hi! I've always been a huge animal lover. Growing up and currently, my family has had multiple dogs and other small pets (hamster and rabbit). Most of our dogs were 85+ lbs, so I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I have also spent a lot of time with some family members who have large dogs, birds, and reptiles. While I'm not professionally trained, I've dog sat for friends and family and have spent years helping care for my own family pets. I moved to Chicago a couple summers ago and haven’t had any pets since then, so I’ve really been missing having animals around. I’m really excited to spend time with some furry friends this summer and give them the same love I've given my pets over the years! I am a teacher, so I have good summer availability. There are a few weeks where I do work a part-time job or travel, but I plan to still be available for pet care. I will use my best judgement while also following any rules indicated by the client. I will be as respectful of your space as I am of my own while working hard to make your pet feel loved while you are away!

“Sky was awesome walking my German shepherd! She kept me updated and took great care of my pupper. She was respectful of my home and followed instructions. Will definitely hire her again!”

Kylie L.

“Ania was amazing <3 Our dogs love her which was very reassuring because we are not used to needing walkers or even trusting anyone with our dogs/keys. Communication is great with her. She’s responsive and definitely eased any concerns we had with any and everything. She’s thoughtful and we will definitely be rebooking with her.”

Brandon A.

“Sarah went above and beyond for walking our dog, Rory! She was super responsive and able to help us out last minute with walking needs and even came to do a meet & greet prior! She took great care of our pup and gave detailed notes and photos from her visit. I appreciated her enthusiasm when meeting Rory and I would absolutely recommend her for any of your pet care needs!!”

Ari L.

“Kevin was great both with Hank and me, his Type A mother. First time entrusting him to a dog walker, Kevin kept me in the loop with text updates on his ETA and shared pictures and fun recaps of their time together. Would definitely recommend Kevin!”

Kati S.

“Yecenia was great with our dog! We’ll definitely book for walks again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for pets through family, friends, neighbors, and as an official dog walker during undergrad. I understand how much trust goes into letting someone care for your pet and enter your home, so reliability and communication are my top priorities. I love staying active and spending time outside, making walks and drop-ins something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pet needs exercise, attention, feeding, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they are cared for like they’re my own. I recently moved to Chicago and have a flexible schedule before starting my full-time role later this summer, which gives me plenty of availability for weekday walks and drop-ins. I’m available throughout the day and enjoy walks as a way to stay active and explore the neighborhood. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow owner instructions closely, double-check doors and locks, keep pets safely leashed outside, and provide updates/photos so you know your pet is happy and cared for. I am comfortable with different personalities, from energetic dogs who need exercise to pets who just need patience, attention, and companionship.

“Delaney came a did a dog walk for both of my dogs with a short notice, she did a wonderful job taking my boys on a good walk before bed and again the following morning! Sometimes I have to travel overnight last minute, so by saving grace she was able to a back to back night and AM walk for me. Thank you!”

“Corinne is fantastic! Our dog loved her from the start. She is responsible and totally trustworthy. Our dog is so lucky to have her.”
