Windy City Dog Walkers Employee Fund

Donation protected
Hello! We are Windy City Dog Walkers and we are asking for help during these trying times.


Ever since COVID-19 started to spread, we have seen a rise in dog walk cancellations and loss of income for our walkers. Due to the Stay at Home Order in Illinois, and for the safety of our staff and clients, we have cancelled all "non-essential" walks, which account for about 95% of our business. Not only are our walkers sadly missing their four-legged friends right now, but they are also missing a consistent paycheck. 


We have 44 amazing, hardworking, dependable, and caring walkers on staff.  Our walkers come from all backgrounds, including actors, artists, servers, grad students, and even dog trainers!  Unfortunately, many of our teams side gigs have also been drastically affected by COVID-19.


We are asking for help during these uncertain times so our walkers can stay afloat financially. Any donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated. Current clients can tip their primary walker directly in their account.  Any donations made here will be split evenly among our walking staff. We promise to be up and running again and reunited with our furry little buddies soon! We also want to thank GoFundMe for considering us for the #SmallBusinessRelief grant.
