Dog Walkers in Orion, IL

“Eleanor loves to go on her walk and comes back happy and relaxed.”

“Cheryl did an amazing job with my pup! She visited at the time we discussed, she shared the walk that she went on with my pup, and she was very responsive. I know my dog had a great time with her and I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in her hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve dealt with and been around dogs my entire life. In August 2020, I adopted a dog with behavioral issues and have learned a lot on how to handle dogs that not everyone can. I’m also knowledgeable about muzzles and correct way to use them. I’m recently married and am looking for a more flexible schedule to be home In the evenings so I can spend time with my family. I treat them the same way the owners do and then some, all while still respecting the pet parents wishes and concerns. I treat them the same as I treat my dog.

About: I’ve owned and volunteered with a variety of animals since a very young age, started volunteering for Down by the Creek Animal Rescue when I was around 11 years old which rehabilitated and housed animals of anything you can possibly imagine. I’m currently available full time and every single day of the week! I however would prefer to not have to do any over night stays anywhere. I have collars, leashes and harness because of the fact my yard is not fenced in. I also have baby gates to section off parts of the house so everyone can stay safe!

“Amara is incredibly attentive and hands on when it comes to pet sitting. We have a cat who is extremely hyper active and needs special attention when it comes to his eating patterns — and Amara handled him with ease. On top of that, Amara would send us daily updates and pictures of our cat while we were on vacation and we didn’t even have to ask her to do it. She gave us so much peace of mind and we are thankful for that! 10/10 would hire Amara again. Which surprise, we already did!”

“She does absolutely amazing with my super hyper nutjob of a lab and the communication is amazing”

About: I started caring for animals when I rescued my dog bean! She has taught me a LOT! Thanks to her I know how to manage dogs who are reactive. I'm also pretty good at keeping my footing if your 60lb pup decides to pull. All dogs deserve love is my motto. I also have experience caring for exotics! I've rehabilitated a bearded dragon and Russian tortoise in the past. I own tarantulas so I'm not afraid of any creepy crawlies either. Most of my availability will be on weekends but my schedule changes all the time so just ask! I'm normally pretty flexible so I'll try to fit you in, even if you ask same day. I can't bring your pet to my home unless it is a small caged pet but I'm happy to visit your home. I'm willing to do overnight stays or just pop in to give your pet a potty break and a walk. I'll always respect your home as if it was my own and your pets wellbeing will always be my highest priority.

“Dee has been amazing with our girls, not only do our girls love her, but you can just tell she loves them as well and is such a huge animal lover. She’s been nothing but great and reliable. If you need anyone to dog sit or even just let your babies out, she’s the one to go with!”

About: Growing up my house was never shy of having at least 6 dogs and at most 9. I personally own a cat and a Aussie now but I still love and care for all animals as if they are my own. I am currently a full time student pursuing my Business degree. I take my sweet Cali girl, my Aussie, on daily walks and fetch. I would love to care for your pets! I am unable to cater to pets in my home but have experience overseeing both cats and dogs at several clients homes in which regular potty breaks, scheduled food service, and keeping the pets active whilst their parents were away are all essential to keeping a pets life as close to normal when they are missing their companion.

“Amanda is a great pet sitter and caregiver. She has helped many people keep their pets safe while they leave for vacation and give them peace of mind that their pets are well cared for. She has personally taken care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats various times. She keeps in touch while I am gone, giving me updates whenever I ask. Amanda is able to stick to the routine and guidelines given to her, including feeding schedules, crating, and anything else asked of her.”
