Dog Walking Morgan Park

“With the busy schedules my husband and I have, we use Melissa weekly for recurring walks. She is great about picking up extra walks when we need, so our fur baby has some consistency with all traveling I do for work. Bruno loves her and I love the peace of mind she gives us! Thanks Melissa for all you do!”

About: I have had a dog my whole life! I’m great with animals because I’m patient, caring, and responsible. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to their needs and always make sure they have proper food, exercise, attention, and care. I’m currently working Mondays and Thursdays so I am available everyday except for that. Normally I have a very flexible schedule and am available at any time. I have been a nanny for the last three years so i’m comfortable with caring for pets in homes. I will pick up after animal on walks (if walks are needed). Make sure everything is locked behind me, and follow any other instructions you may have.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 7+ years and have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies and kittens to seniors who need a little extra patience and help getting around. I’ve also worked with dogs who are leash-reactive, have high prey drives, or simply need a little more structure and individual attention. I’m comfortable with pets who need some extra care, too. I’ve given ear medications and cleaned ears for infections and ear mites, as well as administered eye drops and ointment for a cat with a chronic eye condition. I’ve also cared for senior pets who needed help with stairs, had trouble eating, or needed extra attention with their daily routines. I really enjoy getting to know each pet’s individual personality and making them feel comfortable and happy while their people are away. Whether that means a long walk, playing with a favorite toy, sticking closely to their usual routine, or just keeping them company on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at! I’m currently taking a gap year while studying for the MCAT, so I have a very flexible schedule and spend much of my day at home studying. When I’m house sitting, I’ll most likely be there with your pets for the majority of the day, which means they’ll have plenty of company, attention, and supervision while you’re away. I’m generally available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I do have a weekly figure skating commitment on Tuesdays from about 11:30 AM–2 PM, but I can plan around it and, when scheduled in advance, I’m able to rearrange my plans if your pet needs me home. I’m very attentive to the little things that keep pets safe. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with very different temperaments and needs, including puppies, leash-reactive dogs, high-prey-drive dogs, and pets who need extra supervision or a specific routine. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I make it a point to learn the pet’s normal routine, triggers, habits, and boundaries before they leave. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and introductions to unfamiliar people or animals, and I don’t assume that every pet can be handled the same way. If a dog needs space from other dogs, a cat prefers to hide for a while, or a pet has a particular way of doing things, I respect that. I also know how important communication is when someone else has your pets. I’m happy to send regular pictures and updates, and I’ll reach out if something seems unusual rather than ignoring it or assuming it’s fine. My goal is for your pets to stay safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible while you’re away.

About: I have experience caring for a variety of dogs from toy sized to giant, and I can coddle a puppy or roughhouse with the big guys. I also have recently become a cat mom to 2 rescue kittens. My personalized approach, dedication to pets' routines, and clear communication distinguish me. I prioritize building trust with both pets and owners, ensuring a positive and reliable pet-sitting experience. My regular job is part-time so I can be available on most weekdays and weekends to care for your pets if ever you are not available. I prioritize pets' well-being by ensuring a familiar environment. Daily routines, personalized attention, and open communication with owners are key to providing safe and trustworthy care.

“It’s our first time using Rover and Gionna made us feel so comfortable. Will definitely be using her again. As Rocky loved her. Thank you so much.”

About: I am a verified walker on the app Wag, as well as having over 3 years experience working in animal care. I have been pet sitting for family, friends, and customers on another dog walking app for over 2 years. I work part time so I have a lot of availability! This summer is completely open for me since my nannying job stops for the summer! I have a completely fenced in yard, reliable transportation, a clean background check and I am more than willing to clean up after any mess your pup may make while you aren't home!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I volunteer at animal shelters and used to foster dogs. I want to open my home to your dogs, so you can enjoy some time away stress free! I am new to Rover (as a sitter) but have been using rover services for years. I work a hybrid job with a flexible schedule. I can give your dog as much attention as they need. I’m home all weekend and love to take dogs to the forrest for walks or just hang out if the dog is low key. They can chill out with me while I do yard work! I have a fenced in yard, walk frequently and have a Bernedoodle who LOVES company. I have a sixteen year old daughter who also loves dogs. I can give medications and supplements. I have fostered many dogs, so I am very patient with them when they are uncomfortable. My house has many areas where they can have their own space and time if needed.

About: Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a dependable and caring pet sitter based in Chicago. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, turtles, and guinea pigs, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to learn their routine so they feel at ease. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets receive plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and affection. I can easily accommodate their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel at home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like family and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind.

PROMO: https://www.rover.com/sit/crystt85053 CRYSTT85053 I work hybrid but there is always someone home and your pets will always have supervision. I have lots of time to care for your pet, walk them, play with them in my backyard and follow their schedule. I have a large fenced in yard where your dogs can run freely and play.

About: In the few years I’ve been caring for various animals of my own and others, I feel I treat them as if they are my own human children. I see them as more than pets but companions that deserves a home away from home. I work from home most nights and have plenty of time to care and closely monitor your pets. Playtime is always a given with my own dogs as well I can ensure you that while your pets are in my possession, they are closely monitored and will be entertained. Like stated before I work from home most nights so I’m flexible to work and care at the same time

“We are so grateful for the extra special care she gave our little pup! He had an accident in his crate, and she went above and beyond to not only clean up his crate, but also make sure Milo was cleaned up and comfortable. Despite the unexpected mess, she still took the time to take him outside, give him attention, and make sure he had a happy and cared-for day. It was clear that Milo was in such good hands. We couldn’t be more thankful for her kindness, patience, and genuine care for our pup. Highly recommend!”

“Nicole is amazing with my dog Mia. I really appreciate her going above and beyond for me and Mia. It gives me a peace of mind while I'm at work.”

About: I have about eight years of experience caring for friends' and clients' pets when they are moving or on vacation. I have a very open schedule and my lines for communication are very open. I live in a condo in Oak Lawn and own my own car meaning I have reliable transportation to any of the surrounding areas, if required for your needs. Pets seem to make themselves right at home even if they haven't been there before. I love long walks and don't mind laying around the house or jumping up and going out every hour depending on the pet's needs or desires. I am friendly and pets seem to warm up to me quickly. I have a knack for anticipating a pet's needs and go to whatever lengths I need to keep them safe and happy. I'm lucky enough to be able to mold my schedule around your pet's schedule. So whatever walking and feeding routine you have them on I can easily adjust to fit their needs. I follow every detail the pet parent leaves me to the letter. Even if your pet needs me to spin around 3 times and pretend to microwave his/her food or ACTUALLY has food that needs to be microwaved! I make sure to review instructions with the client the day of so we both feel comfortable that we are on the same page and their fur baby is getting the best care.

About: I’ve always been the one my family goes to train our pets ever since we got our first dog; and it’s been my favorite job ever since! I love learning about different breeds but most importantly how to speak their language. From puppies to elderly cats, I’m happy to care for your fur babies. I’m a recent Masters student at UChicago and have full availability! From mornings to overnight stays, I’m happy to be there for a walk or drop in. My own pups thrive on routine but it’s understandable if yours enjoy that nonchalant schedule. I do think play time, mental stimulation, and a local sniffari is the best way for a good nights sleep. On our walks, I’ll try to make the most of our time together by seeing what environments they feel most safe in.

About: I’ve owned many dogs and have taken care of and pet sit for my family and friends. I really enjoy the company and the energy that animals bring. I will match that energy that they have. I am off of school for the whole summer. So I need something to do during the day so I do not go insane from not having anything to do. I love giving attention to my clients animals and make sure they are having fun and that they are comfortable. I make sure they have used the bathroom and I am also very good at reading the animals body language. I have been around a lot of animals as I’ve grown up.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, frogs, and fish. I am able to stay over or transport to your house, making sure your pets feel safe and cared for! I am currently a student and will be able to stop by in the morning or afternoon/night or stay at your house to care for your pet! I will ensure your pets are properly nourished and entertained. I listen carefully to safety requirements for your house and will make sure your pet stays properly protected!
