About: I’ve been a cat parent for 8 years and currently have three cats, each with their own personality and needs! One takes daily oral medication, and another has cerebellar hypoplasia (a wobbly cat). I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, which gave me experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities. I work Monday-Friday from 8 AM - 5 PM. If you are near Monona, I may be able to stop in around lunchtime; otherwise, after 5 PM. I have more flexibility on weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow routines and instructions closely, respect your home, and give your pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me.

I also have experience with farm animals as well horses, cattle, goats etc. I’ve also had house with combinations of dogs, cats and horses. I’ve also had experience with epileptic dogs as well and having to give medication to pets as well. Although I do not have my own when I am house sitting I make sure to schedule my personal life around the pets I am watching. When pet sitting the pets I am watching are my number one priority. My work schedule during the week I typical work 8-9 hours a day and on the weekends I work I typically work 10-11 hours days. Even with working if the pet requires walks I will make sure they are getting the exercise they need before and after work regardless of the time. I am a very trustworthy pet sitter I have clients that are okay with friends or significant others coming over and I have others who are not, either way I fully respect that clients choice. I always make sure to clean up after myself and make sure the house is clean before leaving. When it comes to the animal I will not push the animal to do anything it does not want to do like going for a car ride, or anything else that may make the pet nervous. I do like to meet the animal and pet parents before hand just to make sure we have a good connection and trust.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Burke
We have booked Lindsey quite a few times now and we are so grateful for her! She is a huge help and our dog loves loves her. He is always so happy and does his tip taps when he sees her. I love knowing my dog is excited to play and hang out with her! She’s very reliable and I love the detailed rover cards and lots of pics!
Renee did a fantastic job walking Farley and Malia twice a day while we were away on vacation. She was reliable, communicative, and it was clear she genuinely cared about our dogs' wellbeing. Coming home to two happy, well-exercised pups made all the difference. We'd highly recommend Renee to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable dog walker!
Lindsay is amazing!! She was able to come over and take my golden retriever for a walk and to the dog park. She also has a dog who was able to join in on the fun, which is always great for my dog who loves to play! She’s super kind and easy to work with. I definitely recommend her, and will be booking her again in the future!
Since recently moving to Madison, I have been overjoyed to discover Alisha. She has become a lovely caregiver for my anxious rescue dog. Our partnership kicked off with a thorough meet-and-greet that instantly built trust, evolving into drop-in visits and dog-walking sessions, with overnight house-sitting on the horizon for future needs. Alisha's calm, nurturing demeanor is exactly what my dog needs, who has a challenging history of anxiety and trust issues. Alisha consistently shares reassuring photos alongside detailed updates, giving me peace of mind no matter how long I'm away. I would highly recommend Alisha to fellow dog owners, especially those with loving yet challenging pets that require extra patience and understanding. Hazel is forming a genuine bond with her, displaying real joy and relaxation in her presence—precisely what I hoped for—and I eagerly look forward to booking her services again.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Burke. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
