About: I have had dogs since I could form memories and currently work at a dog daycare. I have been around dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work on the weekends but have open availability during the week. I am allergic to cats and cannot dog sit for anyone with a cat in the home. I have given medication, shots, and a variety of diets to dogs. I also have experience with reactive dogs and older dogs. I work on the weekends in the city at a dog daycare but have very open availability for the week. I am a caregiver to my grandma but not the sole caregiver. I cannot stay overnight or for prolonged periods. To make sure the dog is comfortable and in the best head space, I do not have other dogs at my house but am more than happy to dog/house sit if needed. I have watched all of my friends dogs while they were away and have no issues crashing on a couch!
“Mariela has been my five-day a week walker for my two Labradors for the past two months. She has shown great care with my dogs. Having a senior dog and a puppy is a challenge, but Mariela recognizes their individual needs and is very patient with both of them. I’m glad to have someone I can trust taking care of my pups each day!”
“Leah is amazing with my dog Susie. Susie is very big and tends to pull. Leah assured me she was a good girl on her walks ( whether that is the case or not) and I appreciate her taking her out when I am at work. It takes a lot of stress off my shoulders knowing someone I trust is walking my fur baby.”
“Gabriela was our life saver! She went above and beyond to help Ivy when I was not able to care for her myself. Our request was last minute but she understood the urgency and truly cared for our baby during a vulnerable time. Thank you Gabriela!”
“Sophia is a fantastic dog caregiver! She was so attentive to our senior dog who be anxious and has her quirks. Sophia was on time with every visit and so communicative. It was reassuring to know how well our dog was being cared for. We would definitely recommend her and plan to hire her again.”
“Maricela P. was just amazing with our Winston! He can be a handful at times just because he gets very excited to meet new people but Maricela handled him with the same care and affection as we do. She was the best with Winston and we are very grateful for finding her!”
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child. I also had dogs and cats as an adult. I have experience in dog training. I currently live in Schaumburg with my 6 month old cat. I am currently working from home on a freelance schedule, so I will be able to walk and care for your pets. I will also be able to look after the pets when you are away. I have a 6 month old cat living with me and really love animals. I am unable to take any more animals into my home at this time. I would be happy to walk your dog outside, I can care for animals on your property.
“Alex did such a great job with my Tyler and Tegan. He is such a honest person to work with and has great communication. I would definitely recommend and use Alex's services in the future. Thank you so much!”
About: I have several years of experience watching dogs and cats. It's truly more of a passion than a job! I always form a strong bond of trust and security with the pets I meet. I am available any time on Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I work short shifts at my other job all other days of the week. My availability is as follows: Monday - 7am-3pm, 8pm-12am Tuesday - 7am-3pm, 8pm-12am Wednesday - 7am-3pm, 8pm-12am Saturday - 7am-9pm, 1pm-12am I'm good at reading pets' emotions. I know how to calm them if they're nervous or territorial. I enjoy playing with them, giving them the attention to deserve!
“My wife and I met Lauriel only briefly to introduce our dogs and cover their specifics and immediately knew she would be a great fit.. We are very happy to have met Lauriel and are excited to have her continue to help take care of our boys... Thank you for all the you do! - highly recommended based on: patience, warmness, reliability”
“Beth is always so good with our girl Kira! She has been very attentive to her needs and helps with any training instruction. We could not ask for a better person to check on our fur baby!!”
“Sarah seems very comfortable with dogs and people - I enjoyed meeting her at our "meet and greet". For the first walk, I was afraid Keiki would hide under the bed when someone new came to take him out, but Sarah knew what to do and got him out for a great walk and visit. Looking forward to having her take care of my baby again in the near future.”
About: I have always had pets. As a kid we had cats. Now I have a cat and two dogs. I am an animal lover. I have taken care of pets to friends and family. I treat everyone's pets as if they were my own and would be happy to take care of them while you are out. I currently work part-time and have a daughter in first grade. On my days that I am not going to work I have a lot of availability to do drop ins, or walks. I would be happy to do whatever is needed for your pet. I could feed them, walk them or let them in the yard. I would give them the attention they needed while you couldn't be there. And anytime of clean up after them is no problem for me. To be honest animals are so calming for me I truly enjoying having them in my life.
“Cheyenne has been absolutely wonderful with my two girls! I have a very hectic schedule and sometimes need last minute care, she is always flexible and makes sure to update me on her schedule. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great, reliable walker.”
About: I currently have 2 Dobermans, both are 6 years of age. Previously adopted another Doberman at the age of 5. I’ve had 2 family dogs as well - making me a dog owner all my life I currently run a personal training business that is by appointment only. This gives me a lot of free time during the day that I could be caring for your pets. I will follow all care instructions for your pets in your own home. I currently have a fenced yard and have experience with invisible fences.
“Tracie was amazing in a pinch. She was very attentive with my dogs and although we never got to meet beforehand, I could definitely tell that I could trust her with my babies. My baby is warmed up to her by the second day and seem to really enjoy her. And she's an amazing Walker and truly cares about animals of all kinds. I would definitely recommend Tracie and would actually hire her again.”
