Dog Walking in Skokie

“Sarah is an incredible Rover! She was very communicative, responsive, and took AMAZING care of our Pepper while we were away! We appreciate her and will definitely be booking her again soon ?”

“Bill is a reliable dog walker. He was great with our dog, Bella. He was flexible when adding extra walks last minute. He is also very responsive. I highly recommend his services to others.”

“Gab did a wonderful job giving Juniper hour-long walks while she was staying with her grandparents. Great communication and very reliable. Thank you!”

“Amanda is compassionate and attentive. She was wonderful with my older dog who can be a little fussy and stubborn, and who has some special needs. I came home to a very happy dog!”

“Stephanie has been great walker to my 2 pups. She’s a great communicator as well. Happy to have her!”

“I can't say enough about Joannie. She is so dependable She is trustworthy She is great with all animals She takes such good care of my dog (Archie) and loves him like he is her own She takes amazing care of my house (I travel a lot for a living and I know I never have to worry about Archie when I travel) She brings him treats and spoils him She has become a second mom to my dog (I love my dog more than anything in this world -- I wouldn't trust just anyone to take care of him) MOST importantly my dog LOVES her and its a huge treat for him when she is caring for him. I can't say enough about Joannie...she means the world to my dog, and we love her!!!”

“We couldn’t recommend Katrina more! Not only did our dog love her, she was great at communication and always let us know if there was anything she noticed or was concerned about while she walked and checked in on Nutmeg. It was a relief to know that she was in good hands while we were at work.”

“Adam was great! He made the effort to come over meet with us before to learn the lay of the land. Will definitely use again!”

“Sarah was very professional and friendly, and she cleverly won our pups over at the initial meeting, assuaging any concerns we had about leaving them in the care of someone new. We would gladly use her services again!”

“Kate is friendly, gentle, knowledgeable, and reliable. My dog, Penny, who can sometimes be shy around new people, took to her immediately. I feel good knowing Kate is giving Penny the extra exercise and attention I can’t always provide.”

“Paul is the best of the best when it comes to caring for furry friends! He knows how to deal with all different kinds of dogs. He always has a calm, steady energy no matter what kind of energy the animals around him have. He knows how to meet dogs wherever they are, and has experience with issues like separation anxiety, reactiveness, and high energy. Can’t recommend him enough!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we could not have been happier with the service we received from Brittany. She really does seem to love dogs and our dog took to her right away. She came in advance to get instructions for the day and wanted to make sure she had the instructions correct. Brittany arrived on time the day of the service. She completed all the tasks asked of her, sent wonderful pictures of our pet to us so we could see he was being taken good care of and sent a comprehensive report of the visit right after. Brittany also response extremely quick when contacted. We would definitely recommend and user Brittany's services again.”

“Alexis was great, professional communication, prompt, personable, and confident with Winnie. She took Winnie on a good long walk as she said she would. Very professional, would be happy to use her again!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals! I’ve had jobs (paid and volunteer) in animal shelters, pet sat for various friends and neighbors, and fostered dogs at different points in my life. At the moment I have one very spoiled cat due to the added responsibility of raising 3 children. However, I created this Rover profile because I’d love to have more animal interactions in my life! I work from home full time and I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule . It’s easy for me to pop out and visit your pet and/or take your dog for a walk during the day when you’re at work or out of town. I am willing to take into account any instructions you give me as far as walking, feeding, grooming, and playing with your pet. I know how hard it is to leave our furry family members and I’d love to give you peace of mind that your pet is getting the best care possible.

“Thanks so much, Olivia. It was great to have a Lacey meet and greet walk with you today. You understood her nervous energy right away and she followed your commands well. Thanks for being so caring to our little one. We’ll schedule more walks and book home stays soon.”

“Jason was on time and took good care of our big dog on all of his walks. This was a repeat booking for us, and we’ll continue reaching out to him!”

About: I grew up with dogs and then fostered cats in college. However, my husband is allergic so I won’t be able to bring your pets here. But I will joyfully care for your fur-babies in your home and on walks in the neighborhood. I’m a stay-at-home mom of my 5yo son. We have a flexible schedule between homeschooling and our field trips. We have a good balance of our organized plans vs going with the flow, so feel free to reach out last minute. I will enthusiastically give your pet(s) lots of attention and care. You know your pet best so whatever you need from me, let me know and I will complete. For dogs, I would love to take them on walks to the park, as my son and I do that daily anyway.

“Stella loves Taylor! Thanks so much for always taking good care of our girl :)”

“First time client but happy so far. Natalie seems well versed on dog care.”

“Jocelyn is an amazing pet and house sitter. She has cared for my two cats and dog frequently for weekends and long weekends. She adheres to written feeding instructions, including giving medications, and has gone above and beyond a number of times by cleaning out the liter box or making sure packages are brought inside. I cannot think of anyone I would recommend more to watch my fur babies.”
