Dog Walkers in Oakbrook Terrace, IL

About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs ever since I was little. I would say I’m knowledgeable on dog training and have a lot of experience with all different types of dogs. I love to walk and pet pups so hopefully we can be good match!! I’m currently working part-time in the afternoon (3-6) so I have lots of free time to check in or walk your pet. I have owned Goldens my entire life so training a high-energy dog is something I’m experienced in. I’m all about creating a safe and enriching environment for dogs, so I’m open to adapting to your pets daily routine.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years and truly love spending time with animals. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. All pets that come to visit us receive filtered water and we live in a non toxic house hold, we don’t use any harsh chemicals or cleaners for the safety of our little ones! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be home throughout the day. Because of this, pet care fits naturally into my routine and I’m able to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and regular potty breaks. I have full availability Monday through Sunday, all hours, and I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I live in a secure, dog-friendly high-rise with a gated dog run, sidewalks for walks, and a small grass park across the street. I have one calm, older dog who is very friendly and unbothered by other dogs. The dog run also has cleaning amenities if pups get messy after playtime. I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and care so your dog feels comfortable and happy while you’re away

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends & family for years. This includes different shapes and sizes. I am a dog mom myself and overall pet lover. I have a flexible full time nursing job that allows me to work 3 times a week. I am looking to fill my free time with more pet care. I am reliable, detailed-oriented, calm and confident in my abilities to provide the best quality of care for your fur baby. I have a walking schedule with my dog at home. We currently do not have a fence but the dogs are always leashed even if just soaking up sun in the backyard. My dog does not get crated but I do have a medium sized crate and can be used if needed. We enjoy taking 3 walks a day and this includes being leashed at all times. My dog is friendly with neighbor dogs and we stop by when we see them if time allows. If my dog runs into an unfriendly dog, we remove ourselves from the situation immediately.

“Collette is the greatest dog walker ever! When I was at work in the city, my pup Sonny started to have seizures and continued having seizures until I got back home. She stayed by his side the entire time. She is very compassionate and caring and has been helping me out with dog walking for almost a year now. She is truly the best! Thank you Collette for everything that you do for me.”

“Gina has been great, I had Gina come over to walk my Lulu. Prior to Gina taking us on, she came over and met with myself and Lulu, very pleasant young lady, you could tell her love for animals. She has been prompt, as well sending me pics and letting me know how Lulu was putting me at ease, while at work. I made a great choice going with Gina!!”
