Active-will run/play with your dog!

Pet care experience

Available during the days, in downtown Chicago, before evening classes for my graduate MBA degree. Would love to take your dog out for a long walk, run, take care of it in the daytime, do anything to take care of them when you are unable to yourself! Will send text messages, pictures, updates, to whatever extent you desire. I can also handle any food/medical/training requirements that you may need for your dog. I have never owned a dog myself, but roommates and family members have always had them and I have loved being a caretaker. Looking forward to taking care of your dog and giving it the exercise & care it needs when you are busy and cannot provide it yourself! I have a Flexible schedule during the day and live in the Gold Coast neighborhood.

Highly recommended! Melissa is great with Atticus and he's always back happy and playful. We love seeing the walk map and getting updates on their walk

Melissa was fantastic with Atticus. He came back a very happy little guy after having peed, pooped and played. Would love to have Melissa again and highly recommend!
