Dog Walking in Northbrook

“Stephen is an incredible dog sitter and walker! He is incredibly professional, caring and attentive. We loved getting photos of our dog after each visit - both action shots and close ups. We are grateful for Stephen's attention to detail, professionalism and care.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 8 years and truly love spending time with animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m very active, patient, and dependable, so whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or your senior pet needs a calmer, gentler approach, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I understand how important pets are to families, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re gone. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, especially afternoons and evenings. I enjoy going on walks, being outdoors, and giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also reliable with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are doing well. Creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets is very important to me. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all routines closely so pets feel secure and relaxed in their familiar space. I pay close attention to instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, crate training, and any special needs or behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always prioritize safety during walks, playtime, and interactions with other animals. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own.

“I chose Amy as my walker the fist time I used Rover and will always choose her. She is fantastic. I love the peace of mind the company policies provide me. The check in cards are a great feature and the fact that I can select to receive Rover messages as texts is also a great option. The app is user-friendly and works smoothly.”

About: I have dogs at home, so I’m very comfortable caring for them and understanding their needs. I’ve also helped house sit with my mom, taking care of dogs by feeding, walking, and giving them lots of attention. I’m reliable and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I’m used to being around and caring for animals. I plan my schedule so I have plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m reliable with routines and make sure pets get consistent care, attention, and exercise throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and have lots of attention. I also keep their space clean and safe, and I always follow any specific instructions the owner provides.

“Amy came out to walk our lab, Ralph, on Christmas Eve with less than 24 hours notice! She responded to our last minute request right away and was extremely accommodating and professional. Ralph liked her right away and they enjoyed a nice long walk. I’m so grateful Amy was willing and able to help us out in our time of need! Highly recommend!”

“Klara has been amazing to work with and we look forward to continue working with her. She visits regularly to give our dog a bathroom break. She is very patient and was willing to go through several meet and greets so our pup could get used to her. Great communication. Highly recommend!!”

Jenna R.

“Jenny was amazing with Shortcake. She took my chunk out on walks for me twice a day while I was away on a business trip. I love the photo updates and could tell that shortcake was really enjoying her time. I came hope to a very happy and well adjusted dog. I highly recommend Jenny!”

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was young, starting with my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog. Today, I'm the go-to sitter my sister relies on to care for her little fluffball, whether it's for an evening away or extended vacations. I'm comfortable providing consistent, attentive care for every pet -- and following your every instruction to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're away. I currently work a flexible, non-traditional schedule that includes fantasy illustration projects and teaching art classes. This gives me built-in gaps during the day that I'd love to fill with dog care, whether that means walks, playtime, or multi-day companionship. Your dog's routine and well-being are my top priorities. I make sure that your dog gets the best care possible and will follow all instructions to the letter: setting phone alarms to ensure potty breaks and meals happen right on time, monitoring treats so your dog is neither over- nor under-indulged, and sticking closely to established sleep schedules. I'm equally respectful of your home, taking care to leave it as clean and orderly (or better) than when I arrived.

“Highly recommend! Brian is fantastic with our dog and great with communication. We have used him several times and will definitely book again!”

“Katrina is a great and reliable person to check in on your fur-babies! She is so great with animals and my dog truly loved seeing her. She always gave great updates. I appreciated Katrina’s time and am very thankful for her!”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I have a 5 year old lab mix that is my obsession. My close friends rely on my to watch their dogs when they go out of town. I work fully remote from my home where I have plenty of time to give love and attention to dogs. I take my pup out a few times through the day. I live in a townhome with plenty of space for your dog to feel comfortable. I have plenty of toys to play with. There is a dog park in my complex and there is a walking trail right near my place if your dog prefers a longer walk.

“Karen was great. She took the time to meet Sadie and understand her needs. The two walks were just enough to satisfy Sadie and give me peace of mind that she was being well cared for. Thank you Karen!”

About: Hi, first a little bit of what I do: I am a digital media consultant and producer, working from home with a flexible schedule. Now for the animal lover in me: I grew up with animals and am comfortable with pets so if you have a cat and a dog, I am more than happy to be there for both of them. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, walking dogs, playing with cats so they aclimate to people as they prepare for adoption. Personally, I’ve had three cats and a dog since I was a kid. I know pets need love and care and when you are not able to, I can be a substitute to watch out for them and keep them feel safe and happy!

“Grace is a wonderful dog walker, she quickly became our two boys favorite. Thank you so much and will always use Grace for walks when possible.”
