Chicago's premier dog walkers and pet care

About Us

Dogs Deserve It LLC was formed in response to the pressing need for qualified dog walkers and pet care providers in the Chicagoland area.

Owner of Dogs Deserve It, Lauren PietrocarloOwner, Lauren Pietrocarlo, identified some shortcomings in the present dog walking industry and decided to address the issues.  A dog lover herself, Lauren was aware of the importance of the daily walk to the health and well being of her pet. She became determined to create a service that would maximize its potential.

Lauren worked with well-respected trainer, Marc Goldberg, to learn the proper way to walk a dog, the way to introduce and reinforce positive canine behavior during this daily routine. Clients benefit from this special attention to on-leash etiquette. DDI dogs are not aimlessly paraded through city streets. Instead, their walk becomes purposeful and engaging.

In addition, pet CPR certification is required for all DDI walkers.

Ms. Pietrocarlo left the corporate world to share her long-time passion for dogs. She is now using her communications and public relations experience to bring a fresh, professional, accountable perspective to the world of pet care.

Dogs Deserve It LLC is a woman-owned company.
