Dog Walking In Oak Park Southwest

About: I grew up raising and caring for dogs, gaining hands-on experience with feeding, training, grooming, and understanding different breeds’ behaviors, needs, and personalities in a loving, responsible environment. I am available during the day but I work from 1a-11a . Please note that my children may also be present at my home during the stay. I will get the extra accessories I need , due to me not having a fenced in yard,such as a leash, a harness, and toys if not provided ! I will ensure to keep your fur babies entertained!

“Ron has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.”

“Came over the day before to meet Sawyer. Went for walk on trail near my house even though I said they could just walk the neighborhood. Went above and beyond, would book again!”

“Jessica shows so much individualized attention and care for our dog! She understands him and his needs and I trust her deeply with him. She is respectful, intelligent, and thorough. Cannot wait to book with her for all future walking and boarding opportunities!”

About: I have cared for my friend’s dogs while they are away many times. I enjoy providing animals with enrichment and making sure they get ample exercise. I am careful around new dogs to let them show me what kind of care they prefer, and strive to make my time with them as enjoyable as possible for both of us. I have full time evening employment. I am available to care for pets Sunday-Thursday 9am to 2pm (meaning my latest available visit would start at 1:30pm for an 30 min visit), and All day Fridays and Saturdays! I have lots of experience with sneaky animals who love eating things they are not supposed to eat or hiding in places they should not be. I am diligent with putting away foodstuffs and making sure doors/ screens are shut. Please let me know if your pet has these behaviors so I can be prepared before the visit.

“Amber has been the best! Used her on a weekly-basis for walks.. reliable, flexible with my changing schedule and took great care of my dog who is pretty selective with who he trusts!”

About: I’ve spent 7+ years caring for pets of all kinds, taking the time to learn each one’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra care. I work a full-time job from 10–5 on weekdays, so I schedule pet care around my work hours. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, playtime, or visits. When I’m with pets, I give them my full attention and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for, even with my regular work schedule. I provide attentive, patient care whether I’m at your home or mine. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. If pets are in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family, giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and play. I always prioritize their happiness, health, and comfort.

About: I take my dog (Louie) on walks daily, so I would love to add your dog to our routine! I’ve been dog sitting for 20+ years, in addition to my family always having at least one dog. I personally love smaller dogs. I have experience with rat terriers, cavapoo, yorkies and cavalier king charles breeds. I love pets and think they’re so important to a family! Let me help you keep your pet happy and healthy 😁 I live on the Plaza so I’m in a very walkable part of town, near many parks. I walk my dog in the evenings after work - a quick workout for both of us. We love to walk around Kansas City together! When I’m home, Louie is always right by my side - on the couch, in bed or even while I’m cooking. I crate him most nights and while I’m at work. I live in an apartment so walks are very necessary - we go on at least one a day or we run in my apartment’s dog park. Would love to add your dog to the mix!

“Kimball is wonderful! She happily met our pup beforehand and was very professional and attentive to her needs. She did a great job of walking her and loving on her, making sure she got a good walk in while we are at work.”

“So many cute dog pics from the walk and easy to work with! Made it easy for me to be away from home all day without worrying about my dog.”

About: Hello! I have always had pets throughout my entire life, and currently have 2 very fluffy kitties! I have 5 years of childcare experience, 3 of which are in home caretaker/house manager. I enjoy taking care of littles, especially ones with fur! I am currently working part time, which gives me the flexibility to take on pet sitting gigs, most days of the week. I have a very trusty toyota camry as well to get me to where I need to go! I have two cats in my home, they are both girls and both think they are the queen of the house. I prioritize a healthy diet for them, as well as lots of play time to stimulate them and help them get the exercise they want and need.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I could remember, I have owned a multitude of dogs and always had a great relationship with them. I’ve had puppies as well so I’m good at potty training and a little bit of on command training. I am currently working part time and a full time college student. The benefits of taking morning classes is I’m available the rest of the day. I’m usually free 5 days out of the week. Can make arrangement at your request and work something out. I will always keep an eye on the pets, Thats the best safety measure. I will also make sure to feed and water as well as take to the restroom to keep them calm. I have a fenced yard.

About: I've had a dog of my own all my life who recently passed, and I've had a bearded dragon, fish, and other animals as well! I've been working with pets for a while now (walking/sitting pretty much everyday) in college and it's one of my favorite jobs I've ever had. I am just starting out on Rover, but I have a High Demand profile on Wag!, with 15+ five star reviews and 13 badges earned through customer satisfaction. I tend to be pretty chill and amicable for new pets, and I work well with seniors and youngsters alike. I just really enjoy meeting new animals and getting to hang out/run around! I'd love to answer any questions you may have for me, I'd even be happy to set up a call to chat face to face if it would make you feel more comfortable! I am on summer break from college right now, so I can make myself available for whatever time you need assistance! I am particularly available for long daytime hours and overnights for those who need a housesitter! I am great at de-stressing pets and am very flexible when working with new challenges. I also am completely able to keep up with pets that like to play and get out and about! I can even bring my own treats if you want!

“Michaela goes the extra mile for your fur family. She gave my boys a potty break and took them on a big walk in the rain! She knows how to take care of the giant babies with big personalities. You definitely need to book her....but not take her away from us!”

“Professional, accommodating, and reliable. Ashley did a wonderful job looking after my senior dog whilst I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize her services again in the future!”

About: I do believe my gift is natural. From reptiles to dogs to ferrets, I believe all pets deserve love and patience. I’ve loved on all walks of life and species. I currently work from home. 7:30-3:30 is my schedule, however we will still have potty breaks every two hours. My pups go on at least two 30 minute walks. I do have a fenced yard, with multiple tethers just in case your dog is a escape artist. I have a dog room, where dogs sleep at night time, in case they are high on nerves. We will offer mental stimulation as well as some continuous learning of basic manners.

About: My name is Ashley, I have been around animals my whole life. I have taken care of animals since i was a little girl. I was raised with a loving ethic about all animals, was raised around small to giant breeds! Fast forward 30 years, my husband and I have have 5 beautiful kids and 11 dogs (3 great Danes, 2 labs, 4 pretty pitties, and 2 Toy Schnauzers) and 9 cats, oh and we have have had and raised 30+ Chickens, turkeys and 16 ducks! 🙊! They are super spoiled! We love having all kinds of animals around us, Love meeting new people and new animals, if I see a dog or a cat I stop to greet them, too much of an animal lover! Would love to give your babies as much love as I give mine when your away and not able too! ❤🥰 My husband and I both are Retired Navy, I also have worked as a Vet tech for 20+ years and now occasionally work part-time as a RVT (Registered Vet Tech) when needed so I have plenty of experience to administer any type or medication if needed. Also I have plenty of time to take care of your babies as well.

About: Some say I am the epitome of an animal-lover. I have been petsitting for a variety of animals since I was 10 years old. I've had cats for my entire life and finally got a dog once I moved to Philly and began living on my own. I have two super sweet dogs and an adorably awesome cat who doesn't mind the presence of dogs or other cats in the house. I foster senior dogs, so all of my residents are used to welcoming new temporary friends into our routine. I offer boarding and daycare to pets that are vaccinated and pet-friendly. I live with my partner who is also very experienced with animals, and between the two of us, there is almost always someone home with the pets! You can rest assured that your beloved furry friend will never be alone for more than an hour or two. I happily allow dogs on the couch and the bed for cuddles as long as this is okay with you. I do not have a fenced yard, but provide at least 4 walks a day and lots of playtime depending on your pup's preferences. There are parks and dog parks nearby, as well! Since I have experience with senior dogs, I also have experience administering medication in various forms and can follow even the most detailed and complicated of instructions. Your pet is in good hands with me!

“Bridget is awesome! She is a great communicator and clearly cares about my dog. I will gladly rebook with her.”
