Dog Walking Norwood Park

About: I love dogs. I am the go to person to take care of my friends and family's dogs when they are out of town. Plus my own dog is super friendly and always game for meeting another dog I work from home full time with a flexible schedule. I am able to do my work and still have time to take care of my own dog and family at home I have 2 year old lab mix to keep your furry friend(s) company. I have a 5 bedroom house, including a full finished basement, and a gated yard so there's plenty of room for the dogs to hang out

“Highly recommend Jessica! She took great care of our 2 dogs. They take a second to warm up to new people, but she was so patient and diligent getting them to use the bathroom. We really appreciate her thoughtfulness and thoroughness with our 2 dogs. We will be hiring her again very soon!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.

“This was the first time we have used a dog walker and Coleen did a great job for us. Gave us great updates and took really good care of our two dogs. Definitely will be booking her in the future again”

“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”

“Thank you so much!”

About: I grew up with cats and have taken care of them my whole life, and I am now a full-time pet sitter! I have lived with dogs and done some care for them as well. I currently have a rabbit, rats, a frog, a gecko, and a jeweled lacerta, so I'm well-versed in pet care and in balancing multiple pets' needs! I am also experienced giving meds to rats, frogs, dogs, and cats, as well as caring for rabbits. I am a former librarian, but now I pet sit full-time, so I have a lot of daytime availability to take care of your pets! I'm very careful to triple-check that I'm following all the instructions I am left. I never want to leave out an instruction, since you know your pets best! I always make sure to give pets as much love as they want, but if your cat is shy, I'll give them their space! Please inform me in advance if anybody will be in the home while I am there. This does not preclude me taking care of the pets, it is just informational. Thanks! I pet sit full-time, so I have a lot of availability at all times of day, all week long. Just let me know what time you need and we'll make it work! I don't provide in-home services on Rover. However, my own pets get a lot of enrichment and as much attention as they want to have.

“Justina was so great with our puppy, we are so grateful for the care, clear communication, adorable pics, and thoughtful gift as well! We would definitely love to have Justina come back anytime!”

“We feel so lucky to have found Mary as our dog walker. Our dog Biz absolutely loves her—and Biz is an excellent judge of character, so that says everything! Mary is incredibly reliable, honest, and kind. She’s gentle and attentive, and we always feel completely at ease knowing Biz is in such good hands. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.”

“Parisa did a great job walking my two boys. She was very communicative and I didn’t have to worry about them all day long. I would definitely have her walk my dogs again.”

About: I treat every pet like family - with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! What sets me apart is my personalized, compassionate care. From playful pups needing training and fun walks to seniors needing meds and gentle attention - I'm here for it all! Pet care is a joyful part of my routine, and I build my schedule around it. I am available weekends and various weekdays for walks, and drop-ins. Whether it's a puppy needing playtime or a senior dog needing extra care, I'm flexible and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving space where pets feel safe. With a fenced yard and nearby parks, they'll enjoy playtime, cuddles, and fun adventures - plus personalized care and consistent routines.

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.

“Arlene has been super sweet and patient walking my dog. He's a reactive little ball of anxiety but she took her time getting to know him and keeps him calm and happy on their walks. I especially appreciate her detailed reports of their walks and thoughtfulness dealing with the construction on my street.”

“We had a great experience with Jenny! She was right on time and kept us updated throughout the walk. Our dog was happy and well cared for. We were very pleased and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend!”

About: A young enthusiastic pet lover and doggy daycare manager for a pup daycare, who has worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds! One day I hope to build my own pet business and continue doing what I love. Im experienced in feeding, walking, bathing, exercising, and when needed medicating your pets when you're away. My clients are long time customers who I consider friends and I'd love to connect with you and your fur babies too! Monday - Friday I am avaliable at different times. Send me a message and hopefully we can work something out! Saturdays and Sundays I am avaliable from 8am until 8pm. Routines are super important for pets, if you don't have one I can create one for you and your fur baby that is specialized for them; that way you always know what to expect. I always ask for permission when it comes to treats, the rooms in the home that are off limits, and what animals can be with who/how many I can walk at a time.

“Karen has been such a blessing to Henry and I. He gets excited to see Karen weekly, go for a walk and eat treats! Thank you for all your help!!”
