Dog Walkers in Mahomet, IL

“Meredith is a great dog walker! She loves dogs and she loves walking! She knows how to keep our miniature poodle Pixel safe from her mischievous desire to take out a goose (which she can't!). Pixel loves Meredith and loves walking with her!”

About: I have 4 dogs that I’ve owned for 5 years now. I adopted two of them as puppies, so I potty trained them and taught them how to sit, lay down, walk off-leash, etc. I adopted my other two as adults, but I did train them how to walk off-leash as well. I care for them every single day, which includes feeding them on the same schedule every day, walking them, playing with them, bathing them when needed, taking them to the vet when needed, cleaning up after them to ensure a healthy and clean environment for them. I’m currently a college student who is out of school for the summer, so I am available 7 days a week at all hours of the day! In my client’s home, I will complete any task they ask of me in the way they ask to do it, as I completely understand that certain dogs need certain routines and strategies. I respect my client’s homes and the way they operate their home lives, and will do all I can to ensure their pets are happy and healthy.

“Melissa has been dropping by to walk my dog Pepper for about a year now and I could not ask for a better experience!!! Pepper loves her and is always happy when I get home from work, and Melissa always takes time to play with her after their walk. Melissa is very responsive and easy to get ahold of. She is also usually able to squeeze us in if I book at the last minute. Overall I’ve had a very good, low stress experience!!!”

“Masha is a great dog walker. Great with humans (reliable, punctual, and polite) and great with dogs (affectionate, and conscious of their needs, but firm when necessary). She walked my daughter’s dog for a month, while my daughter was recovering from a car crash. We would definitely call her again.”

“Esther is an excellent dog walker! She is thoughtful, respectful and loves our dog. We are very pleased with her and will continue to use her services.”

About: My love for dogs and cats, started many year ago, when I helped with dog rescue and made many runs, on transports. In those years, we have transported over 150 dogs, and overnighted almost 70! With the 70 that stayed overnight, there were countless times, we kept between 3-8, puppies and some adult dog mixed in. During, the time they spent even though, it was just for a night. I started working with the puppies, on basic commands and potty training. With this, I have had experience with many breeds and dogs of all sizes. Beside the rescue dogs that would come in and out, we had 4 dogs of our own. With slow introduction on common ground, our dogs always loved our guest. I am a stay at home mom, so I have a wide open schedule. With having this schedule, I’m able to help a client, at a moments notice. I have a big fenced in yard, and my son reinforced at the bottom of the fence, with rocks so the dogs can’t dig out. We do have a pool, but we had built a deck with a gate, where they cannot get anywhere near the pool, unless we are up there. I prefer to use harnesses or martingale collars, for the safety of my dog, or a clients dog. Dogs safety, is my number 1. If I don’t know how the dog walks on a leash, I sometimes double leash, as I did on rescue transport, just in case one leash breaks. At night or anytime we are not home, our dogs are crated, for their safety.

“Has followed directions perfectly, very trustworthy, great communication, just everything you’d want for your pup. Highly recommend!”

“I had a great experience with this dog walker! They were incredibly kind and patient with my senior dog Max, who’s 11 years old and moves at his own pace. It was clear they really cared—after the walk, they made sure Max had water and was comfortable before leaving. I really appreciate the extra attention to detail and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and gentle with older dogs.”

About: I dog sat for many people in my town during all years of high school and first two years of college! I moved farther away from home and would love to meet new furry friends! My weekends are completely open and my Tuesdays and Thursdays only have one two hour lab working with animals! Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays I have more classes but I have breaks in between where I could check in on pets! I always understand that each situation and animal is different so I always ask that the owner tell me exactly how they care for the animal and want me to care for them. For instance, I’ve had clients with elderly dogs on multiple medications needing a chill and very safe environment from other animals, and I’ve had other clients where their animal roams throughout the house all day and their cat comes in and out! Both are completely fine I just like to know what the animals are used to!

About: Hi there, my name is Becky! I understand how hard it can be to find a reliable and trustworthy sitter or walker. I will be happy to help anyway I can. I have had cats all my life and have been pet sitting from a young age. Currently, my boyfriend and I share a dog named Marley and a cat named Simon. I enjoy taking Marley for walks and playing with her in our yard. I would love the chance to treat your pets like they are my own. Although I do have a full-time job, I can still offer plenty of hours for walks, drop ins, or overnight stays. I would love the chance to get to know your fur babies. I am available to check in, walk, play, or whatever you need. I am currently taking a break from working. I am a travel radiologic technologist and home for a break before starting a new contract. I can crate your dog if that is your preference or sleep with them on the couch or bed if they are used to cuddling with you at night.

About: I have been taking care of animals since childhood. Growing up on a farm, we always had dogs, cats, & various farm animals. Additionally, I have experience with animals that have medical conditions such as K/D & U/D. I work as an independent contractor in Champaign/Urbana, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. If you need someone on short notice, I'm available. Feel free to contact me anytime. 1. Making sure your pets have access to clean water and a well-balanced diet that meets their dietary needs. 2. Exercise & playtime: It's important for pets to engage in physical activity and play, whether that be walks, runs, or playtime with toys 3. Safety: Ensure that your home and/or your client's home is pet-proofed, with hazards like toxic plants and dangerous objects being kept out of reach. 4. Attention and companionship: Pets need regular attention, love, and companionship. Spending quality time with them is important for their mental and emotional well-being.

About: I have experiences taking care of both domestic animals and exotic animals from my time working at the zoo. I also have experience taking care of animals of a wide variety of ages, from raising animals from since they were pups to elderly. I also volunteered in my free time at a cat shelter, frequently feeding, cleaning and even administering medicine for the sick kitties. I am currently a high school graduate looking to fill my summer with loving animals. I am free all summer until August 23rd, I can work overnight, on weekends and holidays! I live in an apartment with my orange kitty and other family members so your pet will very socialized. While I live in an apartment, the apartment is super pet friendly with many residents owning pets. There is also a park right next to the apartment with direct entrance so I can easily take your pet outside.

“May and Fred love Hannah !! They greeted her like they had known her before. Even my mammas boy left with her without looking back ! She’s sweet and gentle and clearly has the dog whisperer In her. Will be using her often going forward.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats (and a couple smaller critters here and there) since childhood and understand that pets are family. I currently have four small rescue dogs at home and am active in dog sitting for local friends and rescues. I know how it feels to leave your loved ones in someone else’s care, and I will do everything I can to give you peace of mind and make your fur babies as comfortable and happy as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I’ll do my best to work with you around my full-time day job. I’m generally free in the evenings and on weekends, so keep me in mind if you need a night away but want company for your furry housemates. I am happy to stay with your pets overnight and can also make time for daytime check-ins/walks as needed. Be sure to check out my holiday availability as well! Your pet’s safety is my priority! I like to chat with you and meet your pet(s) before any scheduled bookings so we’re both on the same page about your instructions and expectations. I also value clear and frequent communication. (That includes pictures and updates of your loved ones while in my care!) I respect your home as my own and will leave it as clean, secure and maintained as I found it. If you have any house quirks or special instructions, just let me know. For boarding and daycare services (in my home), we ask that all dogs be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and taking monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention. We typically do not host pets from multiple households at the same time, but please let me know if you have more than one dog for boarding/daycare and I’ll get you a quote. For the safety of our pets and yours, we are not able to host large dogs, cats or (human) children in our home, but I’m happy to come to yours!

“Milo is very good with Lexi and Lexi looks forward to her walks. I’m so happy Milo agreed to take on Lexi.”

About: I grew up with dogs in my home, they became apart of the family. I’ve had 7 dogs of many breeds throughout my life, so taking care of them has become second nature. I start my day pretty early at 5am. My job is flexible so I can accommodate puppies or older dogs that may need more frequent potty breaks. I have a 2 year old dog myself that loves to play with other dogs. All dogs are leashes before the door opens for walks for everyone’s safety.

“Jo was excellent with our dogs!!! (and our 9-month-old puppy is not easy!) I would most definitely have her back on an as-needed basis. Thank you for your attention.”

“Great communication, easy to set up a meet and greet. Easy transition of keys to my apartment. Great walking distance and time for the price! Thanks again, and I’ll be booking in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of PAWZ every since I was 10 years old. My family had four kittens around that time of age and I took the lead role into making sure they’re daily activity was met. I’ve also dog sat in the past few years while being a student on UIUC campus. I like to go for walks, car rides, or sitting on the balcony on a nice sunny day, so if your furry friend needs a pet sitter of interest please reach out to me. Im currently a student at University of Illinois UC and I work part time. Most of this time is during the day, but this is also negotiable . I love playing in and out doors with our friends in the yard or in the living room etc, while following your pet/home care instructions.

About: Im fortunate enough to have so much help when I go to work with my dog and work three nights a week so I have a lot of free time during the week. I’m looking to help others make sure their dogs can get let out or go for a walk while they’re busy (: I have a 1.5 year old mini golden doodle who is basically my child. we do everything together from walks to road trips to popcorn time during a movie! I work nights at a hospital and am lucky enough to have my grandparents watch my dog at night! I’d love to be able to help others out and ease some of the stress of having a dog at home by themselves for so many hours! My dog is my bestfriend, we go on walks every day, he loves play time with other animals & loves to snuggle up! We work on commands daily from sit, stay, shake, up, lay down, & much more!
