Dog Walking in West Lawn, Chicago, IL

“Great communication, easy to work with, and my dog loves her!”

About: I have 4 dogs that I’ve owned for 5 years now. I adopted two of them as puppies, so I potty trained them and taught them how to sit, lay down, walk off-leash, etc. I adopted my other two as adults, but I did train them how to walk off-leash as well. I care for them every single day, which includes feeding them on the same schedule every day, walking them, playing with them, bathing them when needed, taking them to the vet when needed, cleaning up after them to ensure a healthy and clean environment for them. I’m currently a college student who is out of school for the summer, so I am available 7 days a week at all hours of the day! In my client’s home, I will complete any task they ask of me in the way they ask to do it, as I completely understand that certain dogs need certain routines and strategies. I respect my client’s homes and the way they operate their home lives, and will do all I can to ensure their pets are happy and healthy.

About: I’ve always loved caring for animals, and I’ll treat your pets the same way I do my own! I love working smaller pets, as I have a chihuahua myself, but I’m happy to work with bigger dogs as I’m 6’4- so a big guy myself! I enjoy playing with, walking, feeding, and spending time with your pets. I also will make sure to take the time to build trust with your pets- I’m happy to cater to each pets individual needs. I am available everyday from the hours of 2pm-10pm, I can walk or house sit your pet multiple times a day within these hours, and am happy to accommodate your needs. I have a dog, a little chihuahua named Minnie, and calico cat named Kiki! They are both very different, but I love them both the same. Minnie is a big foodie, and I often have to protect my food from her :). I enjoy cuddling, walking, and giving her lots of treats. Kiki is a bit more stand offish, so I give her space- but when shes ready to play I make sure I am too!

I enjoy caring for pets and animals. I will do a lot for animals and people, iv taken care of horses, cats, guiñe pigs, bearded dragons and I plan on caring for many more. I love walking dogs, I love their kisses and hugs! I forgot to mention that I love animals! Im fully available at this moment in my life. I had a bump in my life recently, but my heart is missing a little love. Pets are great for giving love! Help me, HELP YOU! I love my own pets very much to god and back. You better believe, if someone lets me care for their pets, I will do my best!

About: I've own pets my whole life. From dogs to Kamoto Dragons to good fish. I take pride in having an animals love and attention. Patience is key. I currently am working on my food truck and have much down time as it's being built. I've been offering service for friends and family during this summer and it's been great. Why not help others all while meeting new pet friends. I am very respectful to the clients request in how to or how not to attend their pets. I have fenced yard and plenty of toys.

About: I have loved pets since I was a kid. I was obsessed with learning about them. After my first pet died, I was very motivated on learning about how to offer pets the very best life, and this comes through research! I have worked with a variety of animals. Working at PetSmart allowed me to get a better hands on experience as it opened a door to working with cats, sick animals who needed medication, and working with large numbers of pets. This also helped me see what methods worked and what methods to avoid when taking care of our beloved pets. I have a very flexible schedule and will be available for you and your pets. I don’t have a set schedule yet due to work and school. Safety is my top priority. You know your pet best, I will work with what I have and incorporate new techniques and ideas once your pet trusts me. I have a porch that is safe meanwhile my garage is being built at the moment.

About: What sets me apart? I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet’s personal playmate and snuggle expert! From teaching puppies their first tricks, I also have a gentle touch with senior pets, providing extra comfort , I make sure your fur babies feel special. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or just a stroll around the block, I tailor each visit to match their vibe and needs, ensuring they’re always happy and cared for. As a college student, I’ve learned how to manage my time efficiently, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize flexibility, offering tailored care to fit your pet’s schedule—whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles. Between classes, I make sure to provide consistent attention, ensuring each pet gets the exercise, training, and affection they need. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior needing extra comfort, I’m committed to giving your pets the love and care they deserve while balancing my academic responsibilities. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable space that’s pet-friendly and free of hazards. I ensure plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration while keeping things routine and familiar. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible, maintaining feeding schedules, walking routes, and playtimes. I also take extra care to respect the home environment, keeping things tidy and secure. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is always to create a stress-free, loving environment for your pets to feel safe and happy.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes. I’ve even had a problem dog before, although not the most extreme case. I spend a lot of my free time walking around the city with or without a dog. I have an open schedule. I wake up at 9am every day. I can stay up late into the night if that is needed for your dog. I have a small apartment with a metal gate. For the first year in my life, I currently have no dog of my own. I have no other pets. I don’t own a crate currently, but I would purchase one if it was asked of me. I could also purchase any other required resources for your dog, within reason.

About: As an owner of two senior dogs I have learned that they need extra patience and care. I make sure the dogs are feeling comfortable and relaxed by taking the dogs outside as they need to use the bathroom and sun bath for a while. But I also like to give them plenty of time inside if they just want to rest and be pet or cuddled. It's important they get excersise too with some play time or a walk. Pet care goes smoothly with my schedule as a mom and a flea market vendor. My husband Julian does help out in every activity with our pawed guests too. We include a free walk for every day of the stay. Dogs will be taken out to the yard on demand or twice an hour for potty times. For all dogs we will provide two separate hours of play time during the day. If a dog has high energy we will play for about 10 minutes after every potty time. Some of the safety measures with my service include having a fenced back yard, being outside with the dogs until they are ready to go back inside, and having a calm and cozy environment for each individual dog or cat guest.

About: I have taken care of big and small dogs since I was young. I have always owned dogs and love to spend time with them. Aside from pet care, I am bilingual, so I am definitely able to communicate with you in English or Spanish. I am currently not working so I am able to have a lot of flexibility. I will always be there for when your pet needs a walk or some playtime. I have a fenced yard at my home and am able to keep your dog safe. I will always make sure your pet is happy and feel free to communicate any of your pet's needs to me.

In the summer time I would take the pets outside more however as of right now it is cold outside which is why I would try to have them mostly inside.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and pet caretaker, with tons of experience with dogs of all sizes, multiple breeds, puppies, and senior dogs! I was born and raised in Illinois, where I grew up as a caretaker for multiple cats and a German Shepard/Newfoundland mix named Henry, who I helped take care of with my family. I took care of my family’s chihuahua and acclimated him to a new environment. I have taken care of dogs and cats with plenty of unique situations who needed extra love! I moved to Las Vegas in 2016, and I am currently the co owner of 3 rescue pups, who require plenty of love, walks, and playtime. I adopted my dog Zeyda when she was 12 weeks old, and I worked with her a lot using positive reinforcement and attended training with her to help her gain confidence, learn basic life skills and tricks, and walk on a loose leash. I love helping pets and making them happy, giving each one the unique love and care that it needs. I am off during the summer (until August 1st) so I have very open availability! During the rest of the year I work full time, so I am typically available on weekends as well as evenings during the week. I may be available during the week around holidays as well. I have a 2 story house with a fenced yard, and a dog run across the street. My gated neighborhood is dog friendly and perfect for walks. My 2 roommates and I take care of 3 dogs, and they are friendly and loving.
