About Me: Playful, caring, communicating. I have a 4-year old Silky named Prince who is excellent with other dogs and love play dates. We go for nice long walks. Sometimes run, but most of the time we sniff explore. Prince is my third dog over the last 30 years. Farley, a Cocker, was the first. Bella, a Pom, was the second. I am a supporter of PAWS Chicago; frequently participate in the charity dog walks. Prefer dogs in the 10-20 pound range for stay overs. No preference in size for dogs I walk or run with. I am an active runner if needed. Have cared for a blind puppy in the past for a Chicago Police officer. Can help reinforce owners training strategy for student puppies.

My dog absolutely adores Dwight! The way he sprints to the gate when I drop him off tells all. Dwight is the best of the best and is my go to recommendation to all my friends. So happy I found a sitter that isn’t too far from where I live. 10/10.

Chewie had another fun stay with Dwight! I wish they had more stars on the rating scale -- Dwight is the best.

Dwight has watched my pup on multiple occasions. She’s always excited to see him & she comes home happy. It’s great to know that she’s in good hands. Highly recommend!
