Sparky Steps

Sparky Steps is amazing, and I’d highly recommend them to anyone. Having a German Shepherd comes with many reactive challenges especially on walks and new people entering the home. Michael was so patient and took all the steps to ensure my dog would develop a trusting relationship with him. I’m so thankful for Michael and Sparky Steps.

Sparky Steps is a great local chicago business! Having met the owner and see how he interacts with the people around him and his own dogs. You can guarantee your pets will be treated the best. The same as leaving them in the hands of your favorite family member who loves your dogs. 10/10 highly recommend them to anyone who loves there dogs!

Michael has been a god send to my parents taking such dutiful and consistent care of their dog Alfie. My parents are elderly and unable to walk their very large golden retriever on their own. They were also desperate to keep Alfie with them as they transitioned out of their home into a senior living facility. It would not have been possible to for them to keep Alfie if it wasn’t for Michael and the other walkers from Sparky Steps. He is so thoughtful and caring for both the dog and my parents who always enjoy seeing him. He has provided additional services like bathing Alfie when needed and finding substitute care when necessary. We are very grateful for Michael and all the Sparky Step workers and know our good boy is in excellent, caring and professional hands!

We have been using Sparky Steps for a couple of years now, especially once we had our daughter. It was so nice to have that weight lifted off my shoulders during the first few months of her life and especially now that I am back at work. Michael and his team send details about both my dogs walks and we even get pictures most days! I have a German Shepherd that took to him right away and looks forward to seeing him. We also have a chihuahua and Michael took the time to get her warmed up to him, which isn't an easy task. We wouldn't trust our furbabies to anyone else but Sparky Steps!

Michael and his team are the best. I met him through my old roommate because he walked her dog and she trusted him implicitly with taking care of Lola. Now when I go out of town he is the first person I think of to watch my two cats. They are reliable, trustworthy, and care for our pets as much as we do!

can’t thank Michael enough for his help on my wedding day. He made sure my dog was walked, comfortable, and cared for while I focused on the big moment. He’s trustworthy, professional, and truly great with dogs. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, Michael is the one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Micheal is such a great sitter. He took care of my sassy cat, popper. My cat is not always nice to people and micheal did a great job with her. He also send photos and updates of my cat during each visit while I was gone which was helpful and comforting.
