Dog Walking West Town

“Aaron is amazing! He responded quickly to a last minute request for a walk and even was able to do a meet & greet before to make sure everything went smoothly. Our pup loved him!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own family’s dog and others for friends and family over the last 6 years, including walking, feeding, bathing, and just giving a little love! I am a new resident in Chicago very much missing my family and friends dogs back home. I work remotely, so I’m available for walks or drop-in visits most days of the week and sometimes on the weekends. My availability is usually updated on the calendar to reflect any weekends where I’m out of town or have full day commitments. Outside of those circumstances, I’m also available to board in my own apartment. I work remotely, so I’ll be home most of the day during the week to cuddle and play with your pup. On the weekends, I’m a bit more in and out, but I’ll adjust my schedule accordingly to be able to take them out at least 3 times per day or take them with me on adventures where possible! I do live on the third floor, so they’ll need to be okay with stairs or small enough to carry. I sadly don’t have any pets of my own, but that means no need to worry about interactions with other pets inside the home.

“Lisa did a a GREAT job with Barney! I can tell she enjoys walking dogs and that he liked her very much. She’s a wonderful communicator and a very nice person. I would definitely rebook Lisa! I know Barney would be so excited to see her.”

About: Hi! I've been taking care of both dogs and cats for 5 years and I have a deep love for both animals! You can count on me to treat every pet with the same exact care and love that I'd want for my own. I have two cats at home (that act like dogs 😁) but I absolutely adore dogs and have worked with all kinds of pets, from high energy pups/kittens to rescues who might need some extra patience and comfort. I genuinely love going for walks, so if you have a dog that needs to burn off energy on longer strolls, they'll be in great hands! I look forward to meeting you and your babies! My schedule is very flexible as I'm only working part time currently, making it easy for me to accommodate specific times. Because I'm generally only out of the house for short 2-3 hour stretches for errands, I have great daytime availability! This allows me to stick strictly to your requested visit times, feeding schedules, and walk routines without delays. Security and safety are my top priorities when entering your home for walks or drop in visits. I always double check that doors, gates, and windows are securely locked behind me, and I completely respect your living space like it's my own. For walks, I keep dogs on a secure leash at all times, stay mindful of hot pavement or extreme weather, and avoid interactions with other animals or off leash dogs, just to be safe! During drop ins, I do check the area for any hazards, make sure fresh water is always available, and stick strictly to your instructions for feeding, medication, or entry/exit rules.

About: As a pet owner and fellow Rover user, I understand how important finding a reliable sitter for your fur baby is. I have provided sitting services to friends and family for years. I am also the owner of a medically complex dog and have experience with medication administration. As a nurse, my schedule allows for plenty of free time outside of the hospital as well as flexibility between week days and weekends off. I prefer to make minimal change to routines and living spaces. I am comfortable caring for pets with owner’s preference as a priority. I like to have a backup option for safety when normal living habits are not possible, such as crates or gates.

“Maliq was super friendly, communicative, and thorough. Milton just loved him and we will definitely reaching back out.”

About: Hi there! My name is Victoria, I’m a civil engineer and lifelong dog lover. I’ve taken care of my family dog since throughout her whole 15 year life, walked neighbor’s dogs and helped with college roomate’s dogs as well. I’d love to get to know you and your furry pet!! I’m available for drop in visits & overnight stays! I work from home so my schedule is usually very flexible :) I work full time as a civil engineer remotely! Thus I am typically quite available for drop in visits during the day, and I live alone so available for overnight stays as well! I have a fenced yard and plenty of space to roam. I love going on long walks for myself in general, and I’d love to bring your dog along for some company.

“Nicholas is so great with Ziggy, even though zig takes a minute to leave me. He’s patient and kind. Ziggy has a new best friend!!”

About: I had a family dog since I was a teenager! I was in charge of Bruno’s routine and I was definitely his favorite 🤭 I regularly care for my friend’s dogs now by going on runs, feeding them when my friends are out of town, playing with them, and giving them snuggles! I’ve been a nanny to children for many years and I feel the same fondness for animals! I mainly work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your little fur babies! I like to stay active with daily walks and would love the company :) I have my own apartment pets can hang out in with me, and a lovely neighborhood for walks. In the client’s home, I can obviously follow whatever rules and guidelines are given. For dog walking, I can use the company to get my 10k steps!

“Diana is the absolute sweetest. Both of my pets love her so much. She’s fabulous about updates and always follows feeding and medication instructions to the letter.”

About: I have experience with Dogs and cats, as well as other animals like lizards. I have experience medicating animals both through the care of my own pets as well as through my mother who is a veterinarian in Old Town. I've take care of dogs of all age ranges and energy levels. I am currently working freelance so my schedule is wide open to prioritize your pets. And I already have a dog a cat and a lizard that I take care of at home, so my daily routine is already oriented with pet care in mind. I like to spend time with pets both on and outside of walks, as I know they can get lonely when their owners aren't around, and so I can be better aware of how your pet is doing.

“Mya took great care of my pup! She followed my instructions perfectly. Thanks for helping out!”

“Caitlin is a wonderful walker! She is communicative, attentive, and kind. I have a peace of mind knowing that Lottie is being cared for by Caitlin while I am away at work.”

About: I’m Willow! I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and now have two cats of my own, Cannoli & Linguine. I have 5+ years of pet sitting experience taking care of a plethora of different animals, all with different needs. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to accommodate any needs your pet may have. I also have experience with administering medications - pills, oral syringes, insulin shots, ect. I strive to make you feel comfortable, knowing that your furry kids are being thoughtfully cared for the entire time you are away! I work from home and have the flexibility to leave whenever I want/need to. I can come and provide care at any time and will happily walk your dogs rain or shine at any time as well! While providing care in my own home, I will treat your pet like they are my own. Both of my cats are very good with dogs of all sizes (we can have them meet prior). I can spend time at your home with your pets and make them feel comfortable in your absence!

“Viviana did a great job this week with our pups! They seem to love her and look very happy in the pictures she sends. She’s great at communicating and we will definitely continue to use her!!”
