Dog Walkers in Wilson Heights, IL

About: I've trained and have been a parent to numerous breeds. Right now my wife and I have 2 adorable golden doodles. We can't have kids so our pets mean everything to us I'm currently working from home selling items online and taking care of our dogs and cat. I take care of the house and yard and keep it clean I will feed them and play with them. I will let them out and clean up any messes they may l leave. I will check in on them multiple times.

About: I have grown up in a household with dogs, mainly the medium to large sized breeds. I have experience with all sizes of dogs though, as I have taken care of a variety of sized dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I have taken care of cats and dogs when needing medical care - especially giving meds and minor wound care - and also have groomed and walked many types and sizes of dogs. I love making sure the pets are healthy and happy. I have volunteered at an animal shelter to help with the care of animals - providing play time, meds, and grooming of both dogs and cats. I'm currently a full time student at SIUE and I'm in the MFA art studio program. For summer 2026 semester my schedule is Mon-Fri for a few hours in July. For fall I have classes Monday through Friday with times needing to be at campus for a few hours at a time. Weekends I'm generally free. Please note these amount of times away for house sittings and let me know if this is of any concern. Drop-ins/walks midday Mon-Thurs tend to be difficult as I have some breaks but can do before/after classes. I'll let you know if there is something happening during your requested time that will have me away from the house for longer than normal. During house sitting, I can provide food, medicine, play time, walks, and many other services. I also am willing to assist with house related things - bringing in mail, taking trash out for trash pickup, etc - just let me know and we can work it out. For walks and drop ins, my availability is generally flexible outside of classes/work and will work with you to determine the best time(s) to be there. I can also provide some house related services (like bring in mail and packages) upon request. Please note I do have in person classes and GA position at SIUE Monday through Friday, so availability is based upon schedule and distance from campus. I am available to help with the pets at the clients home. I can either stay at your place or go home at night, which I can work with you based on your needs and comfort. I have experience with gated and non gated yards (so needing to leash the dog when taking out for the potty), gates for inside the house, and crate training. Often I will have my own leash with me so that if anything happens, I'm prepared. As for walks, I often work with the dog(s) to see what triggers them and avoid as much as possible. I know not all dogs are friendly with other dogs or people so I am aware of my surroundings and provide appropriate distance and avoid people and dogs as best as I can.

About: Can help take care of big dogs, and can play with dogs all day. Cats I can give them their space or play with them as needed. Rover is a summer side job for me to fund my college and stay active. And I love playing and being with dogs and cats. When it comes to walking or at home care, I have the experience and care to work out all sorts of trouble or problems with dogs and cats.

“Rachel great! We really appreciate her willingness to regularly walk two dogs, both of which need to learn a bit more leash etiquette. We highly recommend Rachel for your pet care needs!”

About: As a homemaker with a lifelong love for animals, I offer a level of care that feels like home. I’m not just here to feed and walk your pets — I’m here to give them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. With me, your furry family members will be treated like my own, surrounded by kindness, cuddles, and a calm, caring presence. I am a stay-at-home mom who will be able to fit pet drop-ins and cuddles while my kids are at school. I can also fit a few nightly check-ins during the evening hours. I will be happy to feed and water furry friends. Play with them in the yard/ take for a walk. I am also more than happy to give belly rubs and cuddles as needed for each pet.

About: Hi there! Thanks for reading my page. I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, bunnies, chinchillas, hamsters, rats, snakes, and even horses! I have several years of experience with pet walking, quick visits and house-sitting for clients, coworkers, family and friends. Maximum time I've lived-in was 2 weeks, and most animals cared for at once was 7! (2 birds, 2 dogs and 3 cats.) I will pet-sit any age, any size, any breed. If you need your pet taken to the vet, groomer, or a friend, I have reliable transportation to do so. I'll even pick up supplies and food if you provide the payment for it, and if requested, I can sweep, dust, vaccum, and overall tidy up! I'd prefer working in a cleaner home, though this is not required. Happy pet, happy vet, right? :) (Note: I used to go by Cat, which is what people called me in the reviews, but I've changed it to Oliver!) I can't host any pets, but I love to visit your fur babies! Any needs they have, I'm happy to provide. I'm definitely a tidy person, and guarantee to leave your house as neat as possible. :) I’m a self-employed artist, and I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible. If you need me on short-notice, feel free to ask! I can usually make things work. As someone that tries to be as organized and as safe as possible, I can confidently say that I’ll leave your house just as tidy as it was when I arrived.

“Olivia was great I was needing help with my senior dog in service dog Kodiak and she was right there to help and with not much notice. She has a very lovely personality and Kodiak seem to really enjoy being with her?”

“Joy was fantastic. We really appreciated the meet and greet the day before …we understand it was last minute so very grateful for her time. Our dogs loved her. Looking forward to having her drop in again!!”

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

About: Without having a ton of experience, I work well and will live up to your expectations! I love animals; I have two dogs and a kitty. I'm good with all different types! I'm a senior high school, trying to start a part-time job here. I've kept the same job for two years and have loved that experience working with kids! I'm good with keeping puppies safe on walks. My cavalier loves to go on long walks. Keeping a good eye of roads, what they step on, and what they eat!

“Meih was amazing with our pup, Milo! She was attentive and caring. We really appreciated the updates and how thoughtful Meih was with his specific needs. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“The pups seemed to really enjoy their time with Jessica. We look forward to continuing to work with her.”

About: I've had my own cats for almost 6 years, I've volunteered at the Belleville Area Humane Society for around 4 months, and I do occasional dogsitting and housesitting for family friends when needed. I have a summer job that starts on May 26th, and I have training from 9-4 on May 17th and 23rd. I'm unsure of which days I'll be working yet, so I will let you know when I can what my schedule will be. I will be completely free on weekends aside from outside events. I appreciate detailed instructions on any specifics needed when caring for your pets, such as medications, feeding times, bathroom breaks, regular walks, or any other schedule they need.

About: I have taken care care of friends and family Pets for years and it’s with no doubt the best job. Time flies when I’m playing with them and they have the best cuddles Pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to every day. I’ve had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, for as long as I can remember. Spending time with them brings me peace, joy, and purpose. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel loved, safe, and truly seen. Caring for pets isn’t a job to me—it’s my passion and something I pour my whole heart into. Whether in my home or a client’s, I care for pets with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I follow any routines or instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or favorite toys. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space, keeping things clean, calm, and familiar. If they’re with me, they get a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of play, snuggles, and supervision. I treat every pet like my own—always with respect, care, and lots of love.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was about 7 years old (dogs and cats). I have a German shepherd who can be be stubborn, but it has taught me how to deal with animals like her and to have patience. I am currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule, so my availability will be quite convenient for those who are needing dedicated care takers. If staying over night, you will not have to worry about your pets being bored. I am very passionate about making sure the animals get some active, play time.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been taking care of them since I was able to. I also would help my neighbors as a kid when they would go out of town. I have two dogs now and love them to death. I’m can walk, feed, bathe, and play with your pet. I am working when I am a free. So your pets care would be my first priority after getting up in the morning. If need over night that would work perfectly. If you have a fenced In yard. I would still go outside with them and have some play time if they would like. Also if we had to take them on a walk I would follow what the animal would like. I will take care of your pet just like they are my own.
