Dog Walkers in Mettawa, IL

“I have two dogs - one small Teddy Bear and the other big Rottweiler. Ling was able to walk both smoothly. My two dogs have different personalities. Ling was so patient and friendly, trying to understand their personalities. My dogs were very comfortable when walking with Ling. I can tell Ling loves all kinds of dogs and I strongly recommend her to any dog families.”

“Rayzel did well with my new rescue Kellie. She spent time getting to know her in advance. On the date, Rayzel arrived on time, took Kellie for a productive walk and then fed her. They got along well even though Kellie is still a bit skittish around strangers. I was very pleased with the service we received from Rayzel.”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs since birth and lived in a neighborhood where nearly every family had dogs and they would all play together. I’m familiar with many kinds of dogs and love playing with and walking them. I recently moved to the area and I am looking for jobs in the pharmaceutical industry, I am very flexible currently and have a car. I will follow care instructions from the owners and take suggestions on walking paths their dog likes, otherwise I love exploring new areas to walk.

About: Growing up, I had a couple dogs. Along with family and friends always having dogs around, I have always taken care of dogs. I love to walk them, bathe them, and play! I would take care of your fur baby like my own! I have a flexible schedule and work independently so I have plenty of flexibility for you and your baby!❤️ What works for your schedule will most likely work for mine. I look forward to spend time with and take care of your baby and I will enjoy every second! You can trust me with your pet like it’s my own! I am an honest human being with a heart full of love and compassion. I would love to take your fur baby to the park to play and have fun, as well as a jog/walk of course, and I wouldn’t mind giving your baby a bath if need be! Perhaps a trip to the pet store to spoil?! Don’t worry cats will love me too! I know just the spot they love scratched and will offer plenty of playtime.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old. I have experience with dogs ranging from 6 pounds to 102 pounds. I have taken care of sick dogs as well as large dogs that have trouble walking. I genuinely love and care for every dog I encounter. I have availability throughout the week from the morning to the afternoon (Mon-fri). I am happy to do up to 5 walks a day. I cannot work weekends. I’m very aware when opening a door to not let the dogs escape. I understand that some dogs don’t enjoy their crate and have learned tricks to getting them to enter. I keep a strong grip on the leash in case of a squirrel encounter.

“Jo went above and beyond to communicate clearly and promptly! Jo even fed him dinner. I can tell s’mores already loves spending time with Jo. It would be a pleasure to book with Jo again!”

“Deidre was AMAZING with my with two pups and can’t RECOMMEND her enough! Unfortunately, one of my dogs became very ill before I left for vacation and required extensive, round the clock care. Deirdre was able to administer all of the medications, stick to the strict food regimen, come by every 2 hours to check in, and even cleaned up all of the accidents from my sick pup. :/ She kept me updated throughout the trip with texts and pictures, asked questions when needed, and when my other dog sitter fell through at last minute, she was able to rearrange her schedule to cover. Overall, I am very grateful for her help and it truly put my mind at ease knowing Deirdre could be there to take care of them! Thank you again!”

“We cannot say enough good things about Peter. We found Peter on Rover during a stressful time. We had to move out of our home into temporary housing. Our usual dog walker could no longer take care of us because we were too far away. Peter stepped in and made the transition seamless. Our girls quickly came to trust him. He has been wonderful with his walk updates and reaching out with any questions. I will be sorry to lose him when we move back home and I am sure our fur-babies will too.”
