Dog Walking Fernwood

“Devon was great! I completely forgot about our appt to meet up before the walk, but she was able to make friends with my dog very quickly after meeting him, followed directions well, and sent cute pics! I’d definitely recommend!”

About: In addition to growing up with family pets, I've been a mom (and step-mom) to two cats and fish for the past four years. I've been a regular point of contact for friends needing dog walks or drop-in care. I'm excited to extend my services and make new furry, four-legged (or no-legged!) friends. I'm a work from home professional and welcome the opportunity to step away from my desk, whether that's to check in on your pets at home or stretch their legs (and mine)! I approach pet sitting with respect for your pet's routine and individual care needs. I believe in regular communication and in providing attentive, detailed care.

“Angela took such good care of our boys! She was on time, a great communicator and sent awesome photos! Would highly recommend her for your pet’s care needs!”

About: Hi! My name is Piper and I am a huge pet lover! I’ve grown up with dogs and frequently pet sit for friends and family. I am reliable, communicative, and passionate about providing the best support to your furry friends. I have this summer off from work, so I have lots of availability! I’m primarily offering house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits I will follow any routines/rules that you have with your pet and your home. I’m very communicative to ensure I can provide the best support for your pet. I love to send photos and any updates!

About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm experienced with dogs from all walks of life, from your social butterflies to your shy guys, your runners fetchers swimmers and wrestlers, you name it, I'm down for it. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.

“Tanya was so great to Callie! She had excellent communication and was very reliable. I trust her with the pup and being in my apartment. Will for sure use her dog walking services again in the future.”

About: I'm really new to this, but I've had dogs of different sizes all my life. Right now, I have a fussy French bulldog and a hyper Chihuahua that I raise with my wife. We walk our two dogs in the morning and in the evening right after work. Our walks are usually 25 minutes long. Our dogs are fed twice daily along with daily meds they require. We often go to the park near our house for daily walks. I have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. It's enough room for small dogs or older dogs that aren't too active.

About: Hi! My name is Jamie and I have been a dog mom for 6 years, but a pet lover for my whole life. I personally know how difficult it can be to leave your pets alone and I want to give people peace of mind that their best friends are loved and cared for while they are away. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I love to take my own dogs for walks and adventures around the neighborhood. I also enjoy playing catch with them and cuddling at the end of the day. I have experience taking care of large and small dogs, as well as high energy and low-maintenance dogs. I look forward to giving your animals the care and attention they deserve!

About: Welcome to my profile! I grew up with a wide variety of pets, so I truly understand how each one has their own unique personality. I know how deserving of love every animal is, and I will do everything in my power to make your pets happy. I treat your pets as my own, while also understanding the need to accommodate to every pet's individual quirks and needs. I recently lost one of my pups to cancer, and because of this, I am really yearning for some more furry friends to meet. Maybe your pet can be my next friend! I recently lost my job, so I currently have a very open schedule! I do have a couple of established clients outside of Rover, but my schedule is still very flexible. I live in a condo-style apartment, so although I do not have a yard, I go on many walks each day- whether around my neighborhood or by driving to a park or beach. I also live just down the street from a dog park, for pups who enjoy socialization and time off-leash. Additionally, I have a patio space for pups who enjoy hanging out al fresco when the weather allows. My own pup is a bit of an escape artist, so I am extra careful with doors, gates, and secure leashing practices. I am also aware of how curious dogs can be, so in my home you can be sure of a safe environment where there are no dangers within a dog's reach (or jump). Not only do I treat your pets with love and respect, but I treat your home with the same care. You can be sure I will keep things neat and tidy, and always make an effort to leave a space cleaner than I found it. No matter the service or location, every animal deserves to feel safe, cared for, and loved. I assure you that I put all my energy into caring for your pets, and I will always treat them as I do my own.

About: Growing up my family owned a welsh springer spaniel. He was one of my best friends. I felt the same excitement he did when I walked in our front door to his excited jumping. After 13 years, he passed away of old age. Since then I have wanted to get a dog of my own, but I’m waiting until my husband and I get a house to take that step. In the meantime, I love caring for other family dogs. This is a super fun side job for me. I love all types of dogs, have experience with senior dogs, and am happy to care for more than one pet from the same home (whether they be cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, etc.). If your dog is nervous around new people, I will make sure to give them the care, attention, and space that they need. I always give frequent potty breaks, feed them at their regular time, and am very careful around doorways (so no one runs off on any solo adventures!). I always do an initial home visit with my husband so I can meet your pets before setting up a first booking with a new customer. I send great picture updates, so hopefully you won’t miss your dog too much. You will undoubtedly love how passionate I am about keeping your pet in a safe, loving environment while you are away. I am currently working as an 8th grade teacher. I am able to get to your home between the hours of 4pm-10pm on weeknights. I am available all day on Saturdays. I am available Sundays after 10:30am. I am available to do home visits to feed your pets, groom with a brush/bath, play their favorite games, go on long walks or runs, and spend the night if you need a house sitter. I can also take care of other pets including cats, hamsters, fish, chickens, etc. If you need someone to water plants while you are away, I can take care of that too!

About: Some of my earliest memories include spending time with my dogs growing up. I have always loved animals and treated them as part of the family- whether they’re mine or not! Every pet deserves love, attention, and care the same as you and I. I aim to ease some of the burden that comes with managing the work/life balance and provide that for my pets as well as others! Daily I care for my sweet pup Penny! She loves all the attention & walks she can get :) with our fenced in yard she is able to get her zoomies out! I currently have a fenced in yard and live in a walkable area. I also have a crate if needed if your pup prefers that to feel more comfortable.

“We have been having Jill come three times per week to walk our pup. She is reliable and communicative! We will continue to have her walk our fur-child.”

About: You dog will feel comfortable with me because I will give them the attention they need. I know how to train puppies as well like, potty training and basic commands. I will bathe and groom your dog if you would allow me to. My time will be focused solely on your dog and nothing else. I have always had a love for dogs and I have been around them my whole life. I live with two dogs now and I dog sit my sisters dog when she goes to work sometimes. I occasionally walk dogs in my neighborhood and I will do up to 5 in one day if it’s not too hot. I always make sure the ground isn’t too hot before walking the dogs and if it is we will stay in the grass areas for the walk. I hope you will take the time and consider letting me watch you dogs. I am working part time but I am able to stay in anywhere as long as I am able to drive to work in Columbus! Tuesdays and Thursdays are my only late evenings, with me getting off work at 9 pm but monday and wednesday I get off at 3 and saturdays I get off at 6! I am completely free on sundays and fridays and my schedule is fixed so there are no surprises! I can easily follow any rules you set for you pet and make it so we are both comfortable being with each other. I can have play time, walks, and I will pay attention to what you pet needs.

About: Animals are one of my biggest passions in life! I've had birds, reptiles, dogs, cats, and currently have a bunny and guinea pig (Chunk & Beaker) who are COMPLETELY spoiled as they are my entire world. I provide the best care there is to animals because I know that they deserve the utmost love and respect. Currently I am available most of the time, unless stated differently on my availability. If you're going away on a vacation feel free to shoot me a text! I have a calm, laid back attitude and I'm good at staying flexible. I'd love to meet your wonderful pet/s! I work from home, so I have the ability to be flexible regarding sitting/drop in/walk requests. This also means I can take last minute requests (depending on the situation). I don't mins booking for a day, or two weeks! I'm open to most things. I give ALL the attention. Your pets will never get bored! I go for walks, play with toys, snuggle, feed treats etc. I am respectful of your space and your privacy, you won't even know I was there!

“Harper was great! She knew how to handle my pittie/boxer mix, who can be a handful. She was very thorough, giving me updates and pics during and after the visit. My doggo loved her and I will definitely rebook!”

About: I grew up in a large family of animal lovers and have been caring for pets from a young age. I have experience looking after family and neighbors’ animals, as well as caring for my own dog. I’ve cared for him from the age of a puppy and through his senior years as he is now approaching the age of 13. This has given me a strong understanding of dogs at every stage of life. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or bath time, I always provide loving and attentive care. Growing up with a dog for a bestfriend, I know how important pets are to their families, and I will treat your pet with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I am currently a student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, home for winter break. During this time, I have a highly flexible schedule and am available for early mornings, evenings, late nights, and overnight pet-sitting as needed. I am committed to creating a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for your pet in your home. I will carefully follow all care instructions provided, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs, to ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for. By maintaining your pet’s normal routine and providing attentive supervision, I strive to create a calm and stress-free experience while I care for your pet.

About: My husband and I have been dog sitting for friends and coworkers for the last few years here in Milwaukee, and are hoping to expand by watching pups here on Rover. We recently bought a house with a fenced in yard and are excited to be able to offer that as a play space for pups we care for. Our Hazel does really well one on one with dogs, though it can take her a bit to warm up to new dogs. We would love to care for your dog while you are away! We exercise our border collie several times a day, whether that be walks, back yard play, or dog park visits. We both work from home and have a fenced in backyard, which makes potty breaks and play easy! I have a private fenced in backyard. We usually keep Hazels toys out away when we have guest dogs here as well, just to avoid any conflict between the dogs!
