Dog Walkers in Dodgeville, WI

About: I'm a lifelong dog and small-animal owner who enjoys all breeds of dogs, from giant to teacup. Over the years, I have enjoyed the canine companionship of an English Springer Spaniel, a pug, and (currently) three dogs: Tallulah (a poodle-cattle dog mix), Ladybug (a teddybear), and Millie (a dachshund mix). All of my dogs have been rescues/adoptions. An animal-lover, I've dog-sat and pet-sat on-and-off for years, caring for dogs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, and even an iguana or two! I have experience with puppies, elderly dogs, and everything in-between. :-) Currently, I work from my home and am able to set my own hours around whatever hours/days you need me to check in on/sit/walk your dog. I'm very flexible. My mom also works as my assistant, which broadens my ability to work around your schedule. I'm experienced with giving medications (orally, in the ear, in the eye, on the skin) if needed; and I also love walking dogs, paying attention to the amount of exercise they require individually. I am currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule that allows me to work around your pet's needs. I also have an assistant, my mom, who works with me at times to ensure that we are able to fit your petcare needs. I follow the directions you provide very carefully, as I would want a petsitter to do for my own beloved dogs. This could include: feeding/watering, playtime, brushing, letting your dogs out to play in the yard, etc.

“I know my pets are in great care with Alyssa! She is friendly, flexible, and reliable. I know how much Grommit enjoys his walks! Alyssa captures his silly personality in her pictures when they are out😊. I am reassured in having her check in on my fur family when I have long days at work. Thanks, Alyssa! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for over 15 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pups. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered at local animal shelters, where I helped walk, feed, and socialize dogs from all backgrounds. I'm comfortable with a variety of breeds and activity levels, and I always tailor my approach to each dog’s individual needs, whether it’s a long walk for an active dog, playtime and enrichment for a curious pup, or calm companionship for an older one. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, safe, and loved. I don't have much experience with cats but am eager to learn and help any cat parent that needs it. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to check on or walk pets during the day or anytime during the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m walking your dog, visiting for a drop in, or staying in your home, I make sure each pet feels relaxed, secure, and loved. During walks, I always use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and surroundings. For drop in visits, I follow your routine for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things consistent and stress free. When staying in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep everything clean and tidy while maintaining your pet’s usual schedule.

About: I have patience. I have worked in a group home and as a job coach for people with special needs. I have always had pets in my home i,e, dogs, cats, gerbils, fish, Chinchilla, and outdoor rabbits. I grew up with pets always around. I have time during the weekday to be able to walk your dogs. I like taking walks during the day and would like to walk them on a continual basis. I walk, feed and care for my dog everyday.I think it's important for dogs to get exercise everyday and on a regular basis if possible.
