Anett Z. Pet Care Provider in Chicago, IL 60634

My name is Anett, and I'm absolutely a dog lover! I have a double Bachelor's University degree in Environmental Studies and Geography, as well as a minor in Public Administration. I have had dog and other animal companions in my home for the past 20 years. I currently have a dog that I love so dearly - my best friend. I also have 6 months of professional dog walking experience in the Chicago-land area employed by professional dog walking companies. I have been pro trained. I have experience feeding, walking with, grooming/bathing, pet care in owners home, caring for dogs. I am now looking to work more independently as a dog walker. In my career I have walked about 30 different dogs - various dog breeds, ages (from puppies to senior dogs), sizes, temperments, personalities, athletic abilities (from slow-paced to fast-paced). I've enjoyed spending time with all them in their own unique way. I have also cared for many of my friend's and families dog companions - including dog-walking and boarding.
I have also cared for cats and other pets

I see dogs and cats as members of families, not just an animal to be cared for. I have had a close connection with all animals, since I was a child. I see them as amazing unique individuals with their own personalities, friendships, interests, emotions, desires, needs, quirks, schedules, behaviors, and worthiness. Dogs are fascinating and intelligent animals that I respect and honor. I tend to have a strong sense of what they need and are asking for. My emotional intelligence, playfullness, maturity, and wisdom has kept me in close connection with nature and animals throughout my life. I enjoy taking care of others. I'm a wilderness girl at heart that does not fear animals. I'm also very careful and cautious when caring for pets -I take necessary precautions.

Every dog I have spent time with has enjoyed my company and fun activites I offer. I love to play with dogs and I also respect when they don't want to play. I can care for small and large dogs. I enjoy actively walking dogs in parks and areas with more nature that they will enjoy. If there isn't much around, then I make sure to make the most of the walk. I am adaptable to the dog's level of activity. If I need to slow down I will, and if I need to speed up with more strength I will do that as well. I have energy and great fitness. I also know how to care for sick and disabled animals. My schedule is flexible and I have wonderful time management
