The Diddy Club

I love dogs, and I want all of them to have a loving home. I want people to feel that they can indeed afford to rescue a dog and that the expense of a dog walker is not what is holding them back. It is about all of us working together to give as many dogs as possible a happy life. I absolutely love my job! I get to spend the day with all of my friends. I think of The Diddy Club as a family. My rat

es are simple. For a single dog, I charge $12 for the first walk and $8 for any additional walk in that day. For a second dog, add $3 total per day. I provide my own pick-up bags and even handmade training treats. I will always walk your dog(s) a minimum of 30 minutes and hang with them for another 10-15 minutes just training and playing. I personally do clicker training which is a positive reinforcement training style. I am always happy to work with the
owner(s) to carry on with the progress they have already established. I don't do pack walks. I am currently accepting dog walking clients in the Roger's Park neighborhood of Chicago. I work with all types of dogs - even those that require a great deal of behavioral understanding. Usually, between my 6.5 years of dog walking experience and being certified in canine massage therapy, I am able to build a bond of safety and love. For boarding - there are a two options:

Option One - Your dog boards in my home. It is essential that your dog and my dogs have had time to build a comfortable relationship to ensure safety and happiness. I do not take in more than one dog at a time. I charge $1.25 per hour ($30/24 hours). I think about the rate like this... If I took your dog for their three main walks in a day, that would be $28 based on my current dog walking rates. I then think about all the extra walks we'll do, how your dog will probably be curled up in bed with us at night, and all the homemade treats they will snack on. I think $30 per day is a fair price. Option Two - "Boarding from a Distance". This is where your dog remains in your home, and I come do your requested walks throughout the full day. Depending on what you prefer, I will spend 40 minutes or more each visit - really giving your dog that companionship and play time necessary for a positive day. In-home Cat Care - I will provide two, thirty-minute visits each day for $12 total per day. I will spend the time with your cat(s), getting to know them. I will also clear the litter, gather the mail, and water your plants.
