About Us

Whoa Doggie is your dog's second best friend!

We are a small team on a mission to take great care of your furry family. We treat your pets as if they were our own, offering an unlimited amount of love, snuggles, and attentive care.

It is fundamental to the mission of Whoa Doggie to go above and beyond standard pet care. Dogs, cats, and their parents often become family to us.

We work with many breeds of dogs, each with their own character, temperaments, and quirks. We tailor each walk to your animals individual needs, whether young, old, rambunctious or grumpy. We love them all.

We walk pups in The West Loop and River North area.

Whoa Doggie is bonded and insured.

Our Team

Carmella Rocha

Owner of Whoa Doggie. Mama of two dogs, Sophie & Coco and two cats, Lola & Zoey. Former farmer turned official dog walker in 2014. I can't imagine my life without dogs. When I'm not out there walking you can find me hanging out with my zoo or roller skating the rinks and streets of Chicago.
