I understand that your pet is family, and deserves to be treated as such. I want your them to feel like they are with family while in my care. A little bit about me... My name is Helen. I am a mom of three living in the North Center neighborhood of Chicago. In my spare time I am a comedic improviser/actor/writer. I perform regularly with various improv teams around the city. Along with dog walking, I also work at local comedy club, and as a professional mascot. I grew up in a home that had many different breeds of dogs/cats over the years, and have 38+ years dog/cat experience. I have previously rescued, loved, and cared for a special needs English bulldog, Mack, as well as an incontinent special needs senior, Tillie. Both were my babies. I also had a sweet cat named Bruce for 18 years. While training at Second City, I had numerous opportunities to volunteer with Safe Humane. This is a program set up to socialize and train shelter dogs. I currently live in a condo in North Center with a small fenced backyard. My roommate has a malshi puppy who gets along well with other dogs. All I need is leashes, food, treats, and any other small comforts your fur baby may desire. I am happy to take pictures/video for your peace of mind.
