Mr. Zoomies

Martin is absolutely my dog's favorite person in the whole world! His rates are very reasonable, and he's the only one I trust to leave her with when we leave town. He's also an amazing daily dog sitter and walker. He walks at least 5 dogs in my building, and everyone loves him! I highly recommend his services. If I could give 10 stars, I would. PS, he takes the best pics of my little angel, too!

Do not trust Martin. We booked him for 4 days of cat sitting while we were away, and even though he met our cat and did fine the first two days, he completely ghosted us on the third day. Our security cameras showed he never showed up, and his own booking portal even lists the visits as uncompleted (see attached screenshots). We tried calling, texting, emailing, and messaging him through the portal, but got absolute silence. To top it off, we later saw on his public Instagram account that he was out at a baseball game the exact day he was supposed to be watching our cat and posting stories even after we had been blowing him up for answers. Because he just stopped showing up, our cat went without food or care for nearly 36 hours. We had to cut our trip short, rush home, and take our cat straight to the vet. On top of that, still had our house keys and ignored all of our calls and messages to get them back until we threatened to contact the police. Do not trust the older reviews on here; they don't reflect how he operates now. Stay far away from this guy.

Martin has been cat sitting for me for over 5 years and I have nothing negative to report! He promptly responds via the client portal to messages and scheduling requests. One year, I forgot to book for the holiday season and didn't realize until the day I was flying out, but Martin saved the day by accommodating my last minute request! He sends photos during each visit, reassuring me that he's providing the service requested and spending time with my kitty while I'm traveling. Mr. Zoomies is reliable, trustworthy, and considerate - I'm very lucky to have found them!

Martin is amazing with my dog Buddy (an ex-racing greyhound, so usually very timid). Every time he comes by Buddy is beyond excited. It is also great to have someone I can trust to watch him whenever I take trips - my dog gets very bad separation anxiety and doesn’t like staying away from home. With Martin I don’t have to worry about that, and I can have peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands! He absolutely loves dogs and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a walker or someone to watch their dog.

Highly recommend !!! Mr Zoomies is one of the best dog walkers in Chicago. He is professional and always punctual. He’s been walking my 2 labs for over a year and they absolutely love him - they burst with excitement every time he comes for their afternoon walks. Martin has also done overnight stays while we were out of town and has taken amazing care of our dogs. He took them out 3 times each day including hour long runs in the park. He does the cutest daily reports for each walk and takes amazing photos. Martin kept the house clean and tidy and went above and beyond to wash the linens after his stay as well. I used to struggle with finding dog kennels / pet resorts in Chicago since many of them false advertise and are over priced. Having my dogs stay in our home gave us much more peace of mind knowing that they were being taken care of by their favorite day walker.

I'm very happy with Martin's services and highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best treatment of their dog. Other services send random people, and I really like that he is the one who watches my dog every time. It builds their relationship.

Martin was able to care for my dog exceptionally well! Has always been kind, thoughtful, and very patient with my dog Daisy! Definitely recommended for all pet care needs!!
