“Katherine is an excellent dog walker. My dog absolutely loves her, and she is always on time and does everything I’ve asked of her. Katherine gives me great peace of mind that my dog will be walked and played with when I’m at work all day.”

About: I’ve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. I’m confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.

“Michael was great with Rocky. My father had hip surgery two weeks ago so it's a load of stress off my mind that we found someone that can help when my brother or myself are not available. Michael was prompt and professional and sent pics while out on their walks. Rocky really likes him! Will definitely be using again! Thanks Michael!”

About: I am a sound healer, wife, mother to my toddler and animals. My husband is a city of chicago worker and we love the chicago area :) We are very active and love to go on long walks and love being outside with our dogs! I absolutely adore cats and love to spend time feeding the feral cats in my neighborhood. In my spare time I also love to go to the local park with my daughter to watch the squirrels and birds. I love nature. I am good with all types of animals and they love me! We have 2 dogs and 3 cats, and some chickens in our backyard. Our dogs are very friendly and love making new friends whenever they can. I truly love watching and meeting new animals and enjoy this type of work. Your pet will love and I cannot wait to meet and take care of them. Please reach out so I can help you with your pet needs! My schedule is open and flexible. My sound healing job varies but typically does not get in the way of pet sitting/ dog walking. Most days I am at home with my toddler or we are out exploring the parks. We have many pets in our home that we care for. I love to work with lists to help me to ensure all tasks are completed and that I am organized.

About: I grew up with cats, then recently have cared for and helped train my parents' Schnauzer puppy. I recently lost my 9-year-old medium dog named Jupiter to cancer, but we loved spending time together walking, hiking, or cuddling at home. I now have a young kitten, Mav, and have been enjoying getting to know him better! I have been trusted to watch my family and friends' fur babies on a regular basis. I do work full time, but my husband also helps out and works from home 2-3 days a week. We love having animals in our home and are active people! I have a fenced in yard and a 4 month old kitten. I live with my husband, and we allow pets on the furniture and beds, but if they are more comfortable in a crate we have plenty of space to accommodate that! I love going for walks and getting some fresh air while allowing your dog to explore some new scents in the area. We have lots of dog toys at home still. Since getting our cat, we play with her everyday and clean the litter boxes regularly

About: Hello there! My name is Alyssa Murphy, Aly for short. I myself, have been a dog owner of an adorable malti-pin named Cobi, for 9 years now. I have also owned two cats beforehand and raised abandoned kittens to health, ensuring they were going to proper homes that would appreciate and take care of them. How does this relate to you? Well, I will guarantee to be that same type of home I would of chose for those rescued kittens. That home-away-from-home for your pup, the home I would look for if I needed a dog sitter. No matter if he/she likes to jump around and play, or just likes to relax on the couch, I’m the girl for the job. Your pup will feel highly appreciated and taken care of at the end of the day, and so will you! Any inquires, please feel free to message. P.S. here’s my promo code :) : ALYSSM29530 *I also know how important it is to remain safe and clean during these times, I will make sure to clean and disinfect everything in my home your dog(s) will encounter.* I’m currently working full time and have part time classes online, so I have a few free days (Thursday afternoons, all day Fridays, Saturday nights and all day Sunday-Monday) to take care of your best friend! My house is always kept clean and tidy. Since I have a dog myself (that likes to get into things) there isn’t much left out for him to grab. I live on my own, so I can also adjust according to your pet. I’m always willing to play, walk, and give attention as much as needed/wanted!

About: Whether your pup needs a place that feels like home while you are out of town or a fun friend to stay with when you are off at work, you will find what you are looking for with me. As an Ex High school teacher, I know how to be patient and still set boundaries. I have been caring for dogs for about 14 years, and have experience with dogs of all sizes. I know how important reliability and consistency is for our four-legged loves. And I will give nothing but love and attention to your cherished friend. I am available to watch your dog in my home Monday through Friday and am around for sleepovers 7 days a week. I currently work part-time from home, so I have plenty of time and attention to lavish on your pup which is what I love to do. I have a fenced-in yard and the ability to give your special friend a lot of attention. I take oodles of pictures and document our walks, so you know your pup is having fun. I also write personalized texts from your furry companion throughout their visit.

About: Since I was 3 I've been living with dogs. But having a dog that was actually mine, I was six and my mom bought the family a female Pomeranian for Christmas. Then from there our love of animals grew. at one time we had two Pomeranians and a German Shepard. I would walk them, feed and water them. And give them all the attention and love I could supply. I also would take care of my aunt and uncles dogs while they were gone, which sometimes included me to give oral medicine to their senior dog.

Suzy has such a gentle aura! Wally made himself right at home. She was great in sending updates and photos. Suzy also made a point to adjust to Wally’s schedule and his training needs; this was a major point for us when looking for a dog sitter. She is reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind.

An outstanding dog walker—reliable, caring, and truly professional. They consistently show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat my dog as if it were their own. Walks are well-structured, safe, and tailored to my dog’s needs, and I always feel confident knowing my pet is in capable hands. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take pride in their work. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality pet care.

Laura is absolutely wonderful with our Fernando! For starters, she’s very flexible and accommodating due to my ever-changing schedule. Secondly, she’s great with taking Fern out for his little walks/potty breaks, and even plays with him a bit before she heads out for the day, updating me on the new tricks they’re practicing! Lastly, Laura is great with communicating with me regarding everything involving Fern and their walks together. Thank you Laura for doing an awesome job!

Jonathon was excellent! I originally had my dog set up with a sitter, however they canceled the day before. We were frantically trying to find someone else, even considering that one of us will just stay behind. But here comes Jonathon to the rescue! He gladly accepted the request the day of. He was very prompt with replies and always sent pictures to let us know how Molly was doing. He even made sure she had enough food and water, even cleaned up after she had an accident. If we need a dog walker again, I’d make sure to reach out to Jonathon first and hope that he’s available!
