Chesney loves me too much (?)

Good, just keep that up, and have them walk him when you are home a few times until he gets used to being walked by NOT mom!

If you're home try going to another room, door closed, before someone else takes him out. If he doesn't see you it may be easier while training, once he discovers he can have fun and be safe without you, then you can go beack to "normal"
Try a martingale collar, they adjust precisely, but if short necked, small head, then use a harness.
