CHICAGO DOG WALKING PRICING
Our Chicago dog walkers provide two standard dog walking lengths: a 25-minute walk, or a 50-minute walk. Have more than one animal and want to get them up and moving as well? Each additional pet is only $5 extra.
Does your dog need some quick bathroom breaks throughout the day or have separation anxiety? We also offer 15-minute dog “potty break visits” — primarily for puppies and senior dogs with potty issues (when two per day are booked) — as well as hourly in-home sittings.
Last but not least, we also offer on-demand dog walking services for those last-minute requests.

Green Paws Chicago gives you and your pet:
From Chicago cat and dog sittings, to pet teeth-brushing and pet de-shedding, we give your furry friend the care they deserve!
Our Pet Care Specialists are 100% W-2 employees (not 1099 contractors) who go through a rigorous vetting and training process to ensure they are trustworthy, reliable, and able to care for your pets just as you do.
We believe dedication and passion for enriching your pet’s life translates into better, proper care. Each of our clients has a primary Pet Care Specialist assigned to look after their pups. Our team is trained to give your pups one-on-one attention, which means your pups will never be “pack walked” or walked by a person who’s distracted by their phone or listening to music
CHICAGO DOG WALKERS
From twice-a-day potty breaks for your playful puppy to stimulating strolls tailored to your senior dog, our team of professional Chicago dog walkers delivers the exercise, attention, and care that every dog deserves.
That’s why veterinarians, pet rescue professionals, and managers of pet-friendly buildings across Chicago choose Green Paws as their trusted partner in daily and weekly dog walking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! We can accommodate weekday walks, or a flexible schedule of 3-4 days a week – whatever works best for your routine.
Need something more customized? We’ll work with you to build a plan that meets your dog’s needs – even if that means multiple visits a day, evening walks, weekend care, or extended walk durations.
In addition to walking, we also offer helpful health and hygiene services like tooth brushing, ear cleaning, and de-shedding to support your dog’s well-being.
Have questions? Contact us to learn more!
Definitely. While our standard service works well for recurring weekly schedules, we know not every pet parent follows the same routine. If your dog walking needs vary from week to week or change often, our flexible option is a perfect fit.
With à la carte scheduling and transparent pricing, you can book walks only when you need them – without committing to a set weekly plan. You’ll find some of our standard rates listed above, or feel free to reach out for additional information.
Schedule Your Meet & Greet Today!We offer dog walking services across many neighborhoods throughout the city, including popular spots like Wicker Park, Logan Square, Lincoln Park, and more. We’re always working to grow our coverage so more Chicago families can get the care they need.

Client testimonials
"...Katelyn is a dream- my dogs absolutely adore her, and I know I can rest easy when I'm away because they are in such caring & capable hands. When my Cavalier had a medical emergency while I was out of town & unreachable, the Green Paws team leaned in to make sure she got the care she needed and kept me well-informed about her progress until I could get home. It was so reassuring, and confirmed that this is THE place for me and my dogs- we love Green Paws!"
"Brian has been our dog walker since 2015! He's the best!! But really so is everyone at Green Paws! We've also had members of their team stay at our house while we were out of town because our old dog (who was dog reactive) wouldn't have been able to handle a daycare/kennel. They are an incredible small business and we are so lucky to have them! Can't recommend highly enough."
"I moved to Chicago in mid December and the team at Green Paws have been walking my dog Piper since. They've also housesat Piper while I've been out of town for work or vacation, even throwing Piper a birthday party while I was out of town, with a dog friendly cake and decorations!!! I genuinely feel that Natasha and Kim who have walked/looked after Piper the most, adore her and I know she is in good hands when I can't be with her.
On my most recent trip out of the country, my dog was attacked by another dog and the team took her to the Vet where she had surgery, picked her up and made sure she wasn't alone. They kept me up to date the whole time and took her back her follow up appointments. Honestly, I was way less stressed/concerned then I should have been because I knew Piper was in good hands."
"Our dog has been a long time client of Green Paws as well and enjoys the long walks and pets - of course there are captioned pictures always.
We recently participated in a community event by Green Paws that showcased various client footage of adventures, tricks and pet fashion.
I can't say enough good things about this company. If you're looking for a pet sitting or dog walking service - look no further."
