Dog Walking in Park Ridge

About: Well, I may not be the worlds best, but I sure try to be! Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to give their pets the care and love they deserve for years. I’m currently staying close to home to take care of my mother, so your pet will never be left alone. I will have time to walk or check up on your pets however often is needed as well. I like to make sure that your pet has a happy and safe time in my car. I pay great attention to detail in my care for animals and can follow any additional instructions. I have also had several different kinds of pets myself, so I have a wide experience with all kinds of pets.

“Vicky did a great job walking our dog! She came by for a meet and greet before the day of the walk which was really appreciated and she sent photos during/after the walk.”

“Ellie is working with our quarantine pup who’s a little shy! She’s been awesome so far, super friendly, and patient with our pup. Thanks Ellie!”

“Thanks so much for helping take care of our pup. Adrian is kind, caring and shows passion for our pup. We will definitely be using Adrian again soon!”

“Our dog Brady loved his first walk with Catherine! We felt very safe having her out and about with our blind pup. We feel very grateful to have connected with her.”

“Brandy is truly amazing and was wonderful with my dogs from their very first interaction. I trust her in my home and with my two dogs. One of my dogs has some behavioral issues that can cause him to be aggressive with other dogs. Brandy is well equipped to handle dogs who aren’t the easiest to walk and who others might shy away from.”

“Karen was great. She took the time to meet Sadie and understand her needs. The two walks were just enough to satisfy Sadie and give me peace of mind that she was being well cared for. Thank you Karen!”

“Nicole was great with Ralphie. She got to know him quickly, and every day was able to increase their distance covered. Ralphie was always happy and excited to see Nicole and went with her easily. I was dog sitting for Ralphie who is my daughter's dog, and I am not able to give him the exercise he needs, so Nicole was a life safer. I will definitely reach out to Nicole the next time Ralphie stays with me.”

“Michael was great with my 3 dogs and keeping my foster dog separate and taking him for a nice walk. He even sent me a photo. The dogs seemed to really like him! We will definitely be hiring him again! Thank you, Michael!!”

“Katy is wonderful! She's a natural with animals, super responsive and reliable. She took tons of pictures and gave a detailed account of the walk with my pup. I'd definitely recommend her!”

“Isaiah responded quickly to my last-minute request and was able to walk my dog, Molly, when needed. He did a great job and we would love to have him walk Molly again.”

“Payton is a very good dog walker and dog sitter. She always takes time out of her day to walk the dogs far distances and give them the exercise they need. She is also a very loving caregiver and always gives them the attention and love each of the dogs need.”

“Ellie is My Mojo’s new best friend, professional, courteous, punctual, knowledgeable and reliable 🎉🥳‼️Thanks Ms Ellie ❤️”

“Vanessa was awesome with my Tinsley! She took her for two long walks today and took great care of her. Highly recommend her services! Thank you!!”

“Becca is an incredibly caring person and an exceptional caregiver. She has an abundance of patience and a willingness to think outside the box in order to solve problem behaviors from her pets and other pets she cares for. I would highly recommend her for all pet care needs.”

About: Since I was 5, I've had two dogs of my own.I also took care of my neighbor's dog while they were away and provided loving care for a dog and a cat when I moved to the US. Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I'm dedicated to creating a happy and safe environment for them. I work in the shop 3-4 days a week, but I will be more than happy to take care of dogs in my free time. Rest assured, i prioritize safety and trust when it comes to caring for pets in their owner's homes. Creating a secure and reliable environment is my utmost commitment.

“Elva took her time to get to know Churro and listen to what some of his issues were. When our puppy came back from his walk he slept for a long time. We will be definitely rebooking in the future. ❤️”

“Mario has been around dogs all his life and learned how to be a responsible dog owner and caregiver. He is responsible and attentive to their needs, and loves to interact with them.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I had both cats and a dog growing up, which I helped care for. My love for animals continued into my adult life. I recently lost my 18 year old (very high maintenance) miniature pinscher, Buddy. I currently have two cats, a Persian (also very high maintenance when it comes to grooming) and a Lilac point Siamese. People always joke that they want to come back as one of my pets in their next life because of the love, care and attention I give them. Not only do I have almost 20 years of care experience with my personal pets (cough family), but I am also many of my family/friend’s go-to pet sitter when they travel. I have experience with pets of all life stages; young, adult and senior/geriatric. Usually with senior care comes medications, specific routines, grooming, etc, for which I am well-seasoned. My husband and I have decided to wait awhile to get another dog, meaning, I have an abundance of love to give. p.s. Attention dog owners: I’m a runner so if your dog likes to get some short distance runs in, I’m your gal. Generally, I work from home 2x per week and I am in office the rest of the week. My boss (dog owner aka his kids) is also very flexible and understanding when it comes to working from home when needed. There were many times towards the end of my love bug Buddy’s life that I needed to work from home more. When I am in office, I usually leave around 8:30am and return around 5:30pm, but my husband who is in office Mon-Fri, returns home around 3:30-4pm. My overall schedule is very flexible. I have pet sitted in both scenarios: For in MY home care- I have a fenced in backyard for quick potty breaks and for play. I also live close to and frequent often the Des Plaines River trail for walks/runs. Animals can roam free or be crated when I’m away or I can give them their own quiet space away from the kitties depending on the owner’s preference. Client home care- I understand that this is sometimes easier when it comes to routines

“Cassandra was very communicative during Mauis walk. She went above and beyond with our girl! We had a lot on instructions and she follows them to a T. We will be using her again!”
