Dog Walkers in Rochester, IL

“We have had Chelsea in our lives for over a year. She has been with us for our fostering and a recent adoption of another kitty. We have a total of 6 pets (1 dog and 5 kitties) she looks after when we are on vacation. During the week, she comes over 3 times a week to walk our lab. She is definitely an adopted member of our family. Our lab goes flying through the house when she hears the front door unlock and several of our cats will even come running. Everyone in our house loves Chelsea. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her not only as a sitter, but as a person. You will not be disappointed with the care and love she gives your furbabies.”

“Michele! You are a life saver, and you are so wonderful. Thank you for taking such great care of my babies!”

“Sarah is a gem! She took great care of Buddha and it was so nice to read his report cards and pics.”

“Oh. My. Goodness! Not enough good things can be said about how much of an asset Raquel has been to our little family when it comes to taking care of our Aussy Shepard, Spaghettio! (Yes... that's what we get for letting our 3 year old name the dog.) Aussy Shepards are notoriously energetic. We were thrilled to hear that Raquel was able to take little Tio on a run through Lincoln Park when he stayed with her. That's something we don't get around to doing so much with a young kiddo in a stroller. She is a wonderful caregiver who is able to adapt to the needs of each pup and clearly has a passion for any furry friend who needs a place to stay. Her home is spacious and very dog friendly. We will happily continue to use her so long as she is available!!!”

“Jade is an awesome dog walker- very reliable, friendly, responsive if we need a change of plans or help with one of our three dogs. Dogs really like her!”

“Jeremiah is reliable and great as always!”

“My fur babies really enjoyed their walk with Kayla. Their were excited when she came and was excited about an hour after she left. When I say her name they wag their tells; they can't wait for their next walk.”

“Sarah has walked my dog a few times now. She has been able to help me out on short notice. She is responsible and responds quickly to booking requests. Alice always seems to be taken well care of!”

“Kayla is amazing with pets she knows how to care for them and is a very responsible person She owns three dogs of her own and have even cared for my pets in the past she is very good a knowing what pets need to be happy and healthy”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. I began helping my parents care for our pets when I was a toddler. As a teenager, I showed my dogs in the 4-H show. I grew up with Boxers and I currently have a Pit Bull mix. I also know dog CPR. I am available almost every Wednesday and the weekend unless I'm on call for work. I may also be available in the late evening some weekdays. Feel free to ask me about my schedule and I will see if I am available to care for your fur babies on the day and time you need me 🙂 Have a young or hyper dog? I’m up for long runs, as I run with my dogs and have taken them for long walks up to 5 miles. I’m also up for a short slow walk for the smaller or older dogs.

“Cate is wonderful! She loves animals and treats them like her own! She is reliable and even took care to shovel herself out of a snow drift to make it to our home. I would highly recommend her.”

“Emma is the best! She’s our go to girl to leave our sweet Dutch with when we are out of town or on vacation. She looked after him as if he was her own puppy! She sent us pics throughout the week to keep us updated. We recommend her to all of our friends and family :)”

“I highly recommend considering John to take care of your pets while you're away or when your pet needs some extra TLC. John's a patient and loving owner to his own set of rescue animals, but more importantly is is a legit professional who's been working as a zookeeper at various accredited zoos across the country for the past 10 years. He's a natural with all animals and would be a great choice to hire to take care of yours!”

“Angelly takes care of my furbaby Snowball like it’s her own. She’s great about sending an update every day when housesitting and I can always count on her to be on time. 10/10 recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, cats, dogs, even small animals like guinea pigs, hamsters, and hedgehogs. I’ve also been all of my friends and family’s go to pet sitter. I have a passion for caring for animals and have always had it since I was little. I can feed your pets, bathe your pets, walk your pets, anything you need done for your fur babies will be done and I love giving them extra love and cuddles, too! You can trust they’re in good hands, I treat animals how I’d want someone to treat mine. I currently have a part time job but it’s very part time for the moment. My schedule is very flexible and I’m available most days at anytime. I can crate your pups if you need me to and keep an eye on them when they’re outside. I keep a watchful eye on my babies so I can promise you I’ll do the same to your’s. Even if they’re counter surfers, I’m fast on my feet to make sure they don’t eat or chew on anything they’re not meant to. I absolutely adore any dog so I can promise to stay firm with them without being too aggressive or mean toward them. I’m a strict rule follower so anything I’m instructed to do will be done.

“Casey was absolutely amazing. I have very high energy dogs. She sent pictures and updates. Her communication was just what I needed while away about the pups. Highly recommend!”

“Great communication and super sweet! Looking forward to booking more walks with Justeina!”

“Jenna is a great pet parent herself and is an animal lover in general. She cares for every animal that she meets and believes that the human-animal bond is very important. I would trust her with my own pets at any time.”

“Zaney has been watching my pets for years. She is very reliable, trustworthy and loves animals! Some of my pets have different needs and she meets all the requirements to take care of them. She has gone above and beyond when taking care of my pets- sending pictures of them , calling me to let me know how they’re doing and when I have not been able to make it back on time she was able to continue care for them until I came home. She is absolutely wonderful and I recommend her to anyone. Nikki Perry”

About: I am a very outgoing, open minded person. I’ve had a variety of pets from childhood until now. I love animals, and am very excited to meet and care for new friends. I am available everyday and every weekend. I am currently working from home. We have an open field outside my home for quick potty breaks, with a big back porch for sitting outside and enjoying nature. I am currently working from home full time, so I'll be spending plenty of time with any guests. I usually wake up around 7am to get an early start for the day! Pets daily home routines don't change when they are staying here. I will always ask what their schedules look like if I am not specifically told.
