About: After loving and caring for my dog of 12 years, Fuzzy Wuzzy, I decided to take up dog care/dog walking to care for other pets who need it. I worked for a Professional Company, ‘Canine Care,’ for a year, and it was one of the best experiences of my life! I work with barking, lunging, curious, drooly, happy, jumpy dogs all day, and I won’t have a problem with however your dog is! I look forward to meeting and having a great, safe, time with them. I am available pretty much most days for house sitting and walking. I text back very quickly so just ask and I’ll let you know right away! I have a fenced in back yard, no pets in the house and if you’re comfortable pets are allowed on the furniture. For walking, I have 6 foot and 10 foot leashes, and my neighborhood is on the quieter side if you’re dog is sensitive to noise. Let me know if you have any other questions I’m happy to answer.

I booked Tabbie to walk our doggies and she was a lifesaver these past couple of days. Tabbie was very responsive, prompt, courteous and on time. She even asked if I wanted to walk them longer which I appreciated that a lot. A tired dog is a good dog and they were nice and tired. I will definitely be using Tabbie for more dog walks!

She was so great with my pups! They’re usually timid around new people, but she was patient and took the time to meet them a few times so they could warm up. Super communicative and reliable—I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care.

About: I have worked with animals in various roles throughout the years, from working in a doggy daycare, to volunteering and fostering with various rescue organizations (OTAT, RWAR). I am experienced in senior pet care, administering medication, and some obedience training. I have a soft spot for brachycephalic breeds, and I owned and raised a Boston Terrier rescue dog for 12 years (RIP Batman 2009-2023). I currently own a mellow and submissive lab/husky mix, Henry, and a Maine Coon/Domestic Medium Hair cat, Tater Tot. Both get along with other animals. I am currently not working a full time “normal” job, so I have plenty of time to walk and babysit your furry friends. I am available for on-demand walks in the city limits of Chicago and south suburbs. For North and Northwest Suburbs, I can be flexible with enou I own a historic Victorian row home; it is 3 stories plus a basement and 2600 sq ft. My home is in the heart of the Historic Pullman District, on National Park Service land. My neighborhood is VERY safe, and my home is also down the street from the 005 District Police Station. My home has plenty of room to spare for your fur children. Not only that, I also have a 6 ft fully fenced yard. There is a dog park 3 blocks from my home, and I am in close proximity to several Forest Preserves. If baths are requested, bath lovers can enjoy baths in a jacuzzi tub, and bath tolerators will be bathed in a walk in shower with a double rainfall showerhead, and a handheld shower head for the hard to reach spots. I can offer pickup and dropoff for those without a car or time to spare, and dogs will be transported in a seatbelt for safety.

About: I grew up in a multi pet home and learned to walk, train and groom pets from a young age. I cared for the last family dog through her medically tedious senior years. Through college I pet sat and walked for friends and family. For 2 years I worked for a veterinary clinic, although my job was marketing I often was asked to assist with holding and monitoring patients. When I became a pet owner I adopted puppies raising them through potty and crate training. I am proud to say they continue to be healthy and happy. Now we foster and pet sit dogs of all ages and sizes because of the dog friendly environment we’ve created at home. My success in pet lies with gaining the pets trust. I approach them slowly and go at their pace, sitting and waiting on the ground if necessary. I am pet sitting and walking full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to my clients! Dogs are typically walked and out between 7am and 9pm. I have a fully fenced yard with ample room for running and playing. There are four resident dogs who are friendly and used to guests. We can crate your pup or have them sleep in a bed or in bed with me. Water is available at all times through a 2 gallon water dispenser.

About: I have taken care of mainly large dog breeds and currently have a Newfoundland. I have been through training courses with her as well. My brothers have always had large dogs and I sit for them often. I want this to be an affordable and helpful service for people that really need the help. I only work 3 nights a week as a registered nurse so I have a lot of availability! I would love to help on my off days whenever I can. I will take your dog for walks and give them good exercise. I can follow and keep their same routine to make sure they feel comfortable. Most importantly you are paying for one on one time and that’s exactly what I will give!

About: I grew up in a home where we treat our dogs as family. I've cared for 4 dogs separately in my life time, 3 of which were via my parents home and one of which on my own in my first apartment in Chicago IL. Dogs almost never miss a beat with approaching you with so much love & joy when you come home and so I feel I should only do the same with how I care for them; i.e making sure their dishes are clean that they receive enough walks & play time for the day, that they also receive treats not just for good behavior but just because they're wonderful. My specialty is communicating with him or her of their needs and servicing them to satisfactory.
