We have two PRETTY crazy pups...One 6 y/o boy shepherd mix and one 6 y/o girl shepherd mix. Natalie is an absolute pup magician! Our dogs not only love her but they get excited when I even say "Natalie's coming today!". She is so good with our two crazy pups and clearly knows how to handle any type of dog, in any environment. She is not just great at her job and clearly a dog expert, she is also an extremely KIND and WONDERFUL person! My wife and I moved into a new home and after meeting Natalie just once, I could tell I could trust her blindly - not just with my pups but my new home! She is an absolutely STELLAR care-taker when it comes to dogs and she handles my two 75+ pound pups at the same time, and makes it look easy. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone 1000x over. We are so lucky to have found Natalie and anyone reading this that lives in the area and also needs a dog walker/care-taker, this is your gal right here! Trust me! She's THE best!

Ally could not have done a better job with my 2 dogs...the older one can be stubborn and stand-offish with strangers and Ally knew exactly what to do to have him warm up to him by the end of the week. She was reliable and had great communication throughout her services. Not only would I give her a 5 star, but would highly recommend using her as well!

Hannah has been absolutely wonderful taking care of our new little puppy. I have been so nervous to leave him home but knowing that he is in great hands has eased me so much! The detailed updates have been amazing & she is always there to answer any questions I may have. I know I’m a high maintenance dog mom and Hannah has been nothing but accommodating. Kylo loves her & so do we! Thank you Hannah!

About: I have had a family dog since I was about 8 years old and have been responsible for caring for animals for all my life! I currently own 2 Shiba Inu's and 2 cats! My dream is to be able to provide a safe and loving home for all animals that I physically can take care of. I love animals and want to do everything to ensure they have quality lives. I work during the week 8:30-4:30 and I usually can care for pets in the evenings or early mornings. I work from home Wed-Fri so my schedule is usually a bit more flexible those days! I am also available all day on the weekends and would love to spend some down time with furry friends! I am not providing in home services at this time. For drop in visits, respecting another persons home is of the utmost importance to me. I am trustworthy and respectful of belongings and your privacy, which is something I value myself! I am happy to speak more with you about any home related responsibilities during the visit, such as home alarm systems.

Carolyn has looked after our German Shepard when we are out of town. We tried using a dog boarding facility once and it traumatized our poor dog, taking several weeks for her to return back to normal. Thankfully, we have Carolyn now. Our dog is always so excited to see her and she’s returned thoroughly happy and oftentimes exhausted from their trips to the park. It’s been wonderful to have the peace of mind. I could never trust anyone else with my dog. Not since finding Carolyn.

Taylor was very flexible when plans changed and took in an extra dog for walking too. She used great judgement when the dogs became too hot to walk on. I appreciate her great communications with me throughout the booking.

Brian did an outstanding job taking care of our “family member” Gage. He was able to follow all the directions (believe me they are pretty complicated) we had provided and did not miss a beat. Great communication as well. Will definitely use Brian again.

Hi, I have worked and known Kathleen for about 18 yrs or more, time goes by so quickly maybe a little longer. Always on time and reliable and dependable for work. She presents herself very professional , friendly and kind. As long as I have known Kathleen she has always had dogs of her own. She is definitely a lover of the four legged fur babies, and knows how to handle them too. Thanks,

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. What sets me apart is my passion for keeping dogs active and engaged. For high-energy dogs, I offer not just regular walks but also runs to ensure they get the exercise they need to stay happy and healthy. I’m comfortable handling multiple dogs at once, and I tailor each walk or run to match their energy levels and preferences. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll for senior dogs or a fun, active run for younger, high-energy pups, I make sure they get the right amount of exercise and attention. Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly routine. I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your needs, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening walks. I’m available for regular, recurring visits or occasional care, depending on what works best for you and your pet. My routine allows me to give dedicated, unrushed attention to each dog, ensuring they get the care and exercise they need at times that fit your schedule. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or at a client’s home. I take extra precautions to ensure each pet is in a secure environment, free from hazards. In my home, I provide a pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and feel comfortable. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I follow all instructions closely, respect the space, and maintain a routine that keeps your pet calm and happy. I also keep clear communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos to ensure peace of mind. Trustworthiness, transparency, and creating a safe, welcoming environment for every pet are at the heart of my service.

Ann took care of our cat when we were out of town. She would spend time with him after she would feed him specialized food. Once he was done eating she would spend some time with him and give him the attention he was asking for. He warmed up to her quite quickly.

Cece was wonderful with our dogs! My mom had used her before and my 1 1/2 year old dog has never been left alone with a stranger so I was nervous. She was so sweet and wonderful and definitely knows her stuff. Wally quickly warmed up to her and seemed like he had a great experience with her! Would highly recommend!

About: I have years of experience dog and cat sitting! I love animals and I have three cats and an australian shepherd puppy! I just moved back to crystal lake from nashville :) I am currently in college but with a minimal class load so I have a ton of time to take care of your pets! My dogs love to go to the dog park every day and play frisbee so that is also part of our routine! I have two friendly lab puppies to keep your dog company! I have a crate if your dog needs to sleep there at night! Otherwise our puppies normally sleep in bed or on the couch!
