Hi! My name is Heather and I recently relocated back to the northwest suburbs of Chicago. I spent the past 15 years living in Los Angeles where my dog walking journey began. I started walking dogs for Wag! Back in 2015, when they were brand new, so I’ve been with them a long time. I’ve lived with dogs my entire life and currently have my own chihuahua mix, as well as two parakeets. I enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it be a breezy walk or watching over them during a boarding.

Dog Walking in Carpentersville
One of the best ways to explore Carpentersville with your dog is on the Fox River Trail. This trail spans 44.6 miles from Aurora to Algonquin, Illinois, and passes through Carpentersville. Fox River Trail is part of a network of 1,600 former railway lines that have since been converted into trails for public use across America. This trail has a variety of surfaces including asphalt, concrete, and stone, which are ideal for dog walking. Your dog can accompany you on this trail as long as they're on a leash, and along the way, you'll see why Carpentersville is such a great place to live!
