Dog Walking in Vernon Hills

“Sandy has been amazing support with Zelda as always. You can tell she loves dogs and is very experienced. We look forward to working with Sandy again!”

“Tavia is a great person for pet care. She has been responsible for several throughout her life, from Ginea- pig's to puppies, and Cats. She is kind and caring to those she is responsible for. I think she will be a great pet sitter. She has a big heart!”

“Devon is amazing. She’s flexible with scheduling and has come through when we needed it the most last minute. Our dog loves her and anyone would be lucky to have her as a daily dog walker.”

“Cathy is incredible! Right from the start, she offered to come meet my dog ahead of time and as soon as she walked in I knew she would be a great fit. She took the time to play with him, pet him, and let him get to know her. As a result, when she arrived to pick him up for his walk, he was happy to see her! This extra care to getting to know my dog (and letting him get to know her!) is so appreciated - especially since I have had other walkers give up on him. I would recommend Cathy to anyone who is looking for a caring and compassionate sitter or walker.”

“Holly took amazing care of Rosco and went above and beyond.”

“Thank you”

“Sarah was amazing ! I could tell instantly our dogs felt comfortable with her . She also provided a great recap on their walks ! 10/10 recommend her and would definitely book with her again ☺️❤️”

“Esther was so great with Sansa! Sansa got lots of good walks in and appeared to get along really well with Esther. Thanks so much for helping us out with walks over several days!”

“Kati was awesome, I highly recommend her...we have two dogs and they have never had a "sitter" stop by to take them on walks. The dogs loved her and she was always on time and flexible when I needed extra walks. Thanks Kati!!!!”

“Brianna is wonderful with our nervous pup. So patient and kind. Will definitely continue to book with her!”

“Maria was wonderful!! I look forward to using her often!”

“Leora did an awesome job. She was on time every day and took Baxter for a great walk. He was tired and happy when I came home from work. I will absolutely use her again.”

“Barb is not only a huge animal lover, but she's also dependable, has an eye for details and makes sure things are done as I've requested. I never have to worry when I know that Barb's taking care of our dog!!”

“Kim is the best! So reliable and helpful in every way! Ranger loves her!”

“Haven was so great with our dog. She was available on short notice and went above and beyond to take care of our dog that has anxiety. He felt very comfortable with her right away. I would highly recommend Haven as a dog walker/sitter!”

“I am new to the area and staying at an extended stay for the time being. Scott was super understating”

“Erica is responsible and loving toward any dog she cares for. She has 2 dogs of her own and takes wonderful care of them as well. One is big and one is small, so she knows the behavioral differences. Your dog would be fortunate to have Erica take care of them.”

“Deidre was AMAZING with my with two pups and can’t RECOMMEND her enough! Unfortunately, one of my dogs became very ill before I left for vacation and required extensive, round the clock care. Deirdre was able to administer all of the medications, stick to the strict food regimen, come by every 2 hours to check in, and even cleaned up all of the accidents from my sick pup. :/ She kept me updated throughout the trip with texts and pictures, asked questions when needed, and when my other dog sitter fell through at last minute, she was able to rearrange her schedule to cover. Overall, I am very grateful for her help and it truly put my mind at ease knowing Deirdre could be there to take care of them! Thank you again!”

“Raagini is awesome! When I met her, she came prepared. Wrote down everything I said, asked me questions and was super friendly. She walked my dog and even cleaned up the mess my dog made! Very trustworthy and reliable. I was hesitant to leave my key to a stranger but she made me comfortable. Super happy - I will definitely use her services again!”

About: I have been a dog & animal lover for all of my life. I fostered 2 dogs for about a month each, both with behavioral issues back in 2017. I learned a great deal about training and dog behavior during that time. I have been providing dog care services on Wag! and Rover for about 4 years. I rescued my own beautiful pup, Libby, from Chicago Canine Rescue in 2020. I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities and caring for numerous dogs at a time. I can provide medication and special care as needed. I’m experienced with senior dogs as well. I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule. During weekdays, I am rarely gone for more than 4 hours at a time and I can accommodate most care needs with my schedule. Since I have a dog of my own to care for, fitting your dog into my schedule is usually very seamless! However, I live by myself so caring for more than 2 dogs at once (my own + one client) is quite overwhelming therefore I do not accept multiple clients at once, even for only a few hours, except for rare occasions. My dog is very laid back and low energy. She is not very playful but enjoys the company of other dogs. I have dogs in and out for daycare and boarding frequently, so she is very used to sharing her space with all kinds of dogs! Since I work from home, I can monitor the interactions between my dog and your dog as needed. I've never had any issues. However, please be honest about your dog’s playfulness level. My dog can occasionally get a bit irritated/overwhelmed if another dog is extremely energetic and does not know when to leave to her alone. She never does anything more than a little snarl but I don’t like subjecting her to constant stress with an extremely energetic dog. My building has a convenient courtyard in back for a quick potty break, and there are many parks nearby for walks and playtime.
