“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!”

Would recommend, thank you!”

About: What truly sets us apart is the genuine love and attention we give every pet, treating them as if they were our own. Caring for animals has been part of my life since childhood, from dogs and cats to rabbits. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and (of course) snuggle their pets, knowing they’d be cared for with patience and kindness. Because I work from home, your pet is never alone. They receive constant companionship, supervision, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I’m attentive and experienced with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need play and structure to senior pets who deserve extra comfort, gentleness, and care. For added peace of mind and convenience, we’re located just minutes from O’Hare Airport with easy access to the Metra train, making drop-off and pick-up simple for frequent travelers and busy pet parents alike. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need dependable care close to home, your pet will be safe, loved, and well looked after here. Since I work from home, your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day, they’ll never feel lonely here! I have a fenced in yard with cameras and we will always monitor while pets are outside. I am a lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets my entire life, including dogs, cats, and even rabbits. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’d love to open my home and heart to your fur baby and treat them like part of the family.

About: While I’m beginning my professional pet care journey, I’ve been around animals my entire life — including cats, dogs, turtles, and more — and I’m very comfortable providing loving, compassionate, high-quality care. I’m intuitive, empathetic, detail-oriented, and a strong communicator, which I believe are all important qualities when caring for animals. I understand how important it is to place your pets in trustworthy hands, and I’ll always treat your fur babies with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. I’m not just there to complete tasks — I genuinely love animals and enjoy bonding with them, making sure they feel loved, comforted, and cared for while their humans are away. Whether your pet needs a fun, active environment or a calm and relaxing space, I’m happy to accommodate their unique personality and needs to help them feel happy, safe and comfortable while in my care. Thank you for considering me! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I have a very flexible schedule as someone who creates my own work hours, which allows me to accommodate many different schedules and give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I care for your pets in your home with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own. I greet them warmly and offer plenty of pets, cuddles, affection, and companionship based on their individual personality and comfort level. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, playtime, and any additional accommodations or care requested. For pets who require walks, I ensure they are safely harnessed and comfortable while allowing them time to explore and sniff at their own pace. I stay attentive to their surroundings, prioritize their safety around other animals, and make sure they remain comfortable in all weather conditions — never too hot or too cold. My goal is always to help your pets feel safe, cared for, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. :)

Elizabeth was an amazing care taker of our dog Sammy. She was very friendly and always on time. She even gave him extra care when he was having tummy issues. She also took the cutest photos of him which really touched our hearts. I would highly recommend Elizabeth for her wonderful care taking services! Excellent job!
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.
Erin is absolutely incredible!!! We have two amazing pups, one who is a nervous, recent rescue. Our newer girl was struggling with a different walker, snapping and growling at each visit. Within minutes of meeting Erin, our little lady had clearly welcomed Erin into the fold. Erin is helping our girl to settle into life and gain more confidence with each walk! I would recommend Erin to anyone!!!!
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.
Mirna is amazing! Milo looks forward to his walks with Mirna because she lets him take walk at his own pace and is so sweet around him. We look forward to her "Rover Card" every day because she is very detailed with her notes and you can not only tell she has experience with dogs, but also loves them. Thanks for everything you do.
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.
Nicholas is a fantastic dog walker! He's trustworthy, flexible, friendly, consistent, and most importantly he's truly great with my little puppy. He takes great care of her and sends regular videos of them playing. I can tell they really enjoy their time together. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker!
