Dog Walking Schiller Park

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I have about 8 years of experience caring for them. Growing up with my own dogs has taught me how to understand their personalities, routines, and the importance of providing them with patience, love, and attention. Over the years, I have also helped care for my family’s dogs when they needed someone they could trust while they were away. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, baths, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different and has their own needs, whether they love being active, playing, or simply relaxing with someone they trust. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every dog with the same care, kindness, and affection I would give my own ! I currently work a part-time job, but I am still able to provide reliable and loving care for your pets. I am happy to work around my schedule to make sure your furry friend receives the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need. I will always communicate my availability clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my priority, and I want to make sure they feel happy and cared for ! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for them in my home or visiting clients’ homes, I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets feel safe, happy, and cared for!

“Maria was very nice and did great with our sometimes-high-strung dog. He liked her immediately and was happy to go for a walk with her even though he sometimes has separation anxiety. We're planning to book with her again.”

About: I’ve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. I’m confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.

About: I provide exceptional care and have much love for dogs and all animals. I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life, and love walking, feeding, and spending time with them. I have worked with dogs all ages and don’t mind puppy energy. I am reliable and responsible and will be there when asked, and treat your pet and house with respect. I am currently a college student and have plenty of time for pet care. I don’t mind stopping in 1-3 times a day to entertain, take care, feed, and/or walk your pets. I will treat your pet and house with kindness and respect. I have pleanty of patience and energy and love playing with pets. I will make sure your pet has all needs taken care of.

About: 23 years of dedication & genuine love for what I do. I've pretty much done it all except for training. Primarily grooming but also have extensive experience with walking, boarding, day care, home/vacation visits & house sits. I've been a home groomer for the past 8 years but due to allergies, need to switch modes. Over those years I regularly attended workshops & seminars to continue to educate myself & hone my craft. Including certification courses in puppy handling, senior care, proper sanitization, business compliance, skin assessment, & CPR. This only means I have been educated on these subjects, I am not an expert. As mentioned, I was a home groomer so I'll be turning my grooming room into an area for daycare/boarding. I am home based and plan to stay that way. Pets in my home will have a designated area for eating & sleeping but will have freedom to walk about for the most part. I have a large, fenced back yard with plenty of space to run & play. The yard will be the primary potty area. Walks are available for an added charge. Caring for pets in the clients home will be based on the instructions given by owner.

“So highly recommend Nick for your dog walking / care needs . Nick constantly kept up with our ever growing/changing dog. We can’t say enough about the care and time that Nick had for him.”

“Ashley did a fantastic job with my dog. She was polite and on time with great communication. I gave her a cash tip”

“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”

About: I've taken care of dogs of many different breeds for more than years, including my own. Your pup will feel loved and safe. I will treat them as if they are my own. I'm currently in between projects so I'm pretty open for the month of August. Starting September, I will be available in the early evening and night time. I am not going to offer boarding in my own as I have my own pet who is territorial. Furthermore, my home is not equipped to house more than one animal.

“I highly recommend Odalys! She has been absolutely amazing with my dog, and he loves spending time with her. From the very first walk, I could tell she has a real passion for animals and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well taken care of. She's always on time, reliable, and keeps me updated with cute photos and notes. My dog gets so excited when he sees her, and I know he’s in great hands. Couldn’t ask for a better dog walker!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life since I was 3 years old. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs up to 14 years old. Growing up with dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. I regularly care for my family's dogs whenever my parents are out of town, handling daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition, I have cared for dogs and other pets for family members and friends while they travel. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs, my reliability, and the genuine care I provide to every animal I look after. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to maintain their normal routine so they feel happy and secure. As a Physical Therapy student, my weekdays can be busy with classes and studying, but caring for animals remains an important part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure my pets are fed before I leave for school and again when I return home. I also stay on top of responsibilities such as cleaning the litter box and making sure all of my animals are comfortable and well cared for. My weekends are much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate additional time and attention to pet care. Because I balance a demanding academic schedule with caring for my own pets, I am organized, responsible, and committed to maintaining consistent routines. Pet owners can trust that their animals will receive dependable care, attention, and affection while they are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a comfortable environment for the pet. I understand that pets feel most secure when they can stay in their normal routine, so I make every effort to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. For dog walks, I will ensure dogs are securely leashed, remain aware of our surroundings, and provide exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. During drop-in visits, I will make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed, and spend quality time giving them attention and companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I am dependable, attentive to details, and committed to keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.
