Dog Walking Woodridge

About: I have 20 years of pet care experience and have cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and other animals throughout my life. I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and routines, and I always focus on providing calm, reliable, and loving care. Every pet I care for is treated with patience, attention, and respect. I’m a realtor who works from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. If I ever need to step out for an appointment or something unexpected comes up, I always communicate ahead of time so you know what to expect. Other than that, I’m wide open for early morning-late evening visits and can work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, caring environment and always follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay on their normal routine. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to treating every pet and home with respect and care.

About: Hey there my name is Danielle, I have taken care of dogs of all ages ranging from puppies going through their first heat to senior dogs with lack of abilities. Growing up I had all sorts of pets in my home and enjoyed sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. Also one of my first jobs was at a dog boarding and day care facility. I love all breeds of dogs and cats and just want to keep them happy and healthy and have a fun time. I am available on the weekends and I love the outdoors so any chance to get some sunshine is my favorite. Meeting new people and pets is something I always look forward to. I have a fenced backyard, and my dog is friendly. I do not leave dogs unattended outside because I want to be sure they won't try to escape the yard or dig holes. When in a client's home I am sure to read all instructions given prior to my drop in. I make sure that the their pet is given my full attention during my time there. If I have any questions I am not afraid to ask. I will also send updates and photos if requested.

“Amanda did a great job stepping in on short notice. Bear enjoyed his walk and it gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thanks!!!”

“Nicole is really awesome! She did a meet and greet with my dogs before she took them on there first walk. She also learned the exact walking route I normally take with them, which I really appreciated because it keeps their routine consistent. On top of that, she made sure they were fed and cared for after their walk. I was able to get her to walk my dogs on short notice. I highly recommend her. She’s reliable and thoughtful!”

“DeAndre is dependable, trustworthy, and caring. He goes the extra mile to ensure our pups are well taken care of at all times. He provides photo updates and notes about his walks and visits. I highly recommend him and will continue to book with him.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years, and I really enjoy it. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes seniors, big dogs, small dogs, friendly, not friendly. I’ve also taken care of cats and other animals! I’m a student at Wofford College, which actually gives me a pretty flexible schedule plenty of time during the week to stop by for visits, walks, or feedings whenever your pet needs it. I’m also happy to stay overnight if that works better for you and your pet’s routine. Just let me know what you need and I’ll work around it! I’ll make sure to play with your pet and give them plenty of love and attention while I’m there. I’m happy to stay for however long you’d like so they get real socializing time. Just let me know what works best for you and your pet, and I’ll make it happen!

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.

“Madison was professional and went above and beyond to tidy up and care for my 3 dogs. I am happy we found her in short notice and she was able to accommodate us. I will definitely depend on her in the future.”

About: Hi, I’m Melanie! I grew up caring for dogs and have continued building hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. In college, I became a sitter for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, where I helped care for and support the training and daily routine of a guide dog in training. More recently, I’ve provided independent pet-sitting care for multiple dogs at once. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, senior-dog care, oral medication, and keeping pets on their normal routines while their owners are away. My availability is currently open, and I’m happy to coordinate drop-ins, walks, and other services when I’m available and always communicate clearly about scheduling. I’m attentive, dependable, and careful to follow each owner’s instructions closely because I know every pet has their own routine and personality. I make an effort to give each pet individual attention, keep them active and comfortable, and provide updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. I also take seriously the trust involved in caring for pets in someone else’s home. I’m respectful of clients’ spaces, follow household instructions, and leave things as I found them. For everyone’s safety, all dogs must be up to date on vaccinations/flea & tick treatment.

About: I grew up with pitbulls, blue heelers, and cats. I currently have two fur babies named Theodore and Jax (who are living a 5 star luxury life 🐾). My friends reach out to me if they need help with caring for their doggies. I’m trustworthy and will respect your instructions! I will not do anything or give anything to your pup unless it’s specifically stated beforehand or I ask you first. I do not have children so it’s easy for me to be flexible in caring for your baby! I will provide loving care, and most of all, keep you updated and send plenty of photos to give you the reassurance that your pup is safe and cared for. I LOVE plants, so if there’s any plants you need watered while you’re away, I’d happily do so! I currently do not work. I mostly tend to my fur babies or my garden most days. I am doing college online but it is very flexible. My schedule is pretty flexible! Unfortunately, I cannot take care of animals in my home. We are renting and our lease states we have to have prior approval and charge a fee if another animal will be residing with us. My corgi (Theodore) is a bit of an introvert as well and does not enjoy other animals (other than Jax) in his space. I am able to drive and take care of your pet in your home! I don’t mind taking multiple trips if that will put you at ease about your pet!

“Thanks for taking great care of my baby! It takes a weight off my shoulders knowing he has a break in the middle of my long days at work. We appreciate you 🫶🏻”

“Julie takes great care of my pup! She’s always on time and quick to reply ❤️”

About: I love love love canines. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own 🥰 I’m very active and love to entertain animals. I have experience with both small & large breeds. I've been an animal lover since childhood. My childhood dream was to become a veterinarian but I decided on taking a different path and served in The Military for 20 years. I’ve had the unique experience of breeding Boxers for a few years. As a breeder I have cared for newborn puppies, deworming, administering shots, and potty training them until eventually finding them forever homes. I will walk, feed, and play with your fur baby and set their minds at ease until you return. I am retired and I’m ready to start a hobby that I will love. Please let me know any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration and I can't wait to meet your furry family member. I am currently unemployed and lots of free time to spend with your fur baby. I like to take walks and would love the extra company. I have a huge fenced in yard. I can crate your fur baby only if it is necessary. There is a separate space fenced in in my backyard if needed.

“Kristina is very flexible and was able to work with me to schedule the best time for me!”

About: I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family, friends, and neighbors since I was young. I love animals of all kind and would be honored to spend some time with your four-legged family members! My work schedule is pretty flexible, giving me time to take walks, let them out to go to the bathroom, or just hang out with them throughout the day. I’ve grown up with bunnies, cats and dogs big and small, so whatever pet you need me to watch I’m confident I’ll be able to take the best care of them!

“She did a great job coaxing my dog from under the bed! Highly recommend her for shy, scared dogs.”

“Kiera is so wonderful with my dog! She truly goes above and beyond! You can be confident that you are leaving your pup in good hands with Kiera!”

About: I’ve taken care of just about everything. From dogs and cats to entire farms! I have been in animal care more many years. I’ve worked at doggy daycares/boarders.I am willing to be as flexible as possible. I’d love to take care of your babies! Hello! I am completely flexible throughout the entire week. I am always willing to go out of my way for the care of your pets! The safety of any pet owners animal is very important to me. I make sure to keep your pet safe, entertained, and cared for. I am willing to walk, bathe, crate, etc.

About: Taking care of dogs is second nature to me. I am a dog loving household and am always itching to find another 4-legged-frito-smelling doggo to love on. I have 2 dogs, a schnauzer mix and a labradoodle. They are couch potatoes, so anybody would fit in here. I have worked with dogs basically my whole life and have dog sat for countless friends and families. I am a certified pharmacy technician and am able to care for your senior dog with medical needs. I would be best fit for families who wanted to go on weekend trips and leave their doggos to someone they trust! I can also offer services through the week if need be. I am an early riser and let our dogs have as much outside time as they want until I leave if I have to. I have a fenced in yard, as well as a larger front yard for running and playing. I have baby gates to separate if needed for feeding time or at night for sleeping arrangements.
