Dog Walking Grantosa

About: After graduating from Harvard, I moved from the Northeast to Wisconsin to train for speed skating. I grew up as a critter kid: my dad was a veterinarian and my mom worked in science museums, so I was raised around all sorts of animals, from birds, axolotls, and geckos to furry dog and cat companions. Since my move, I have been "dog-lonely" and am looking to show your animals some love. My family has always had huskies, so I am comfortable around big, goofy, energetic, and sometimes stubborn dogs. I love taking dogs for walks, but even more so, running with them if they are able. As a professional photographer, I also offer pet photography so you can keep permanent memories of your scaley, feathered, and furry family members. I am a speed skater, so my days consist of morning and evening workouts. I'm available during the day (10am-3pm) and evenings (after 7pm) to take care of your pets. I will always ask for a meet and greet before caring for your pets. My pet care will occur in your home and neighborhood. For walks, I will only take one household's dogs for a walk at a time. I can follow detailed instructions to a T and will maintain your animal's routines while you're away. I can be counted on in an emergency and know what a vet emergency looks like, and you can expect clear and timely communication from me around the care and health of your animals.

“Krystal continues to do an excellent job walking our dog, Taters. Taters is always excited to see Krystal coming, and Krystal has been flexible and accommodating when our schedules changed and we needed to reschedule walks. She’s easy to work with and is clearly great with dogs!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 3 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.

“Michelle was a lifesaver for a last minute booking. Great correspondence, timely arrival and excellent skills with my dog. Will definitely book again. Thank you!”

“Maddalena is so helpful and flexible! I appreciate her thinking ahead- she saw it would be raining so she took our dog on a quick walk and then played with her inside. Dallie still got some energy out, and we couldn't be happier. :)”

“Chelsea too very good care of my dog - hanging out when he preferred a cuddle over a walk or spending time outside when that was his preference. All the while, she kept me up to date with messages and photos.”

Becca S.

“Thank you so much Susan!”

“Monsserath does great with my shy and anxious dog. She is very patient and understanding and has so much love to give my pup. She is super reliable and I can tell looks forward to seeing my pup every week! I am so lucky to have connected with her and look forward to working with her again in the future.”

About: I started off taking care of small animals, but then became trained as a kennel attendant and enrichment specialist in my growing career in animal care. I wanted to offer more to my local community with the current skills I have, along with learn and grow with every pet and parent! I’m aware of how dogs communicate with each other with body language and have been trained to break apart a fight, even before a fight could start.

“Charlotte was on time and paid attention to my dog and let me any details that she noticed. Very kind.”

Justin K.

“Very pleased and relieved that Montserrat has been able to walk my fur babies. She is great and they love her!”

About: I’ve taking care of pets since I was 13. I currently have a blind senior german shepherd, and guide him when needed, giving him lots of treats and love. I also have a 1 year puppy and give her frequent time out. I’m planning on working weekends whenever needed to play with doggies and give them the care they need! I can feed them, give medicine, and care for blind and senior dogs. I put my dogs before anything and make sure they have everything they need. Treats, water, food, play time, medicine, supplements, nap time and love.

“Melainie is so great with our chihuahua mix, Bowser. Bowser is a great judge of character and is very selective with who he will allow to rub his belly and he loved Melainie the second he met her!”

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for my grandparents’ Shih Tzus. I am attentive, patient, and always prioritize each pet’s comfort and safety. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents and make sure their routines are maintained exactly as requested. I am reliable, punctual, and committed to showing up when expected. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment for them. I maintain a structured and dependable schedule, ensuring consistent arrival times and adherence to each pet’s routine without exception. Safety is my highest priority, and I remain attentive at all times to prevent risks during walks, feeding, or home care. I build trust through clear communication, reliability, and strict follow-through on owner instructions. I also focus on creating a calm, stable, and comfortable environment where pets feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for throughout my time with them.

“I have been using these 2 for a couple of weeks with both Wag and now Rover. They have been great to my girl. They are helping her get the energy out in a safe way and even working on her focus in public. Much appreciated ?”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring to every pet as if they were my own. I’m very consistent with routines and detail-oriented, especially when it comes to feeding, walks, medications, and following any specific instructions. I’m calm, patient, and good at reading animal behavior, which helps pets feel more comfortable and secure quickly. I also make sure they get plenty of companionship and attention so they’re not just cared for, but genuinely supported while their owner is away. Pet care fits really well into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for :) I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking closely to their normal routine and giving them lots of attention and patience. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific preferences or behaviors to watch for. I pay close attention to pets’ body language and comfort levels, and I always prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or quiet companionship, I try to make the experience as stress-free and positive as possible for both pets and owners.

“We have been working with Haani for a month so far. She's so great with Gus! Since she started working with Gus, he's gotten better at understanding and listening to commands and not pulling when he's on his leash. He's always so happy to see her! Haani communicates well and is really reliable. We're excited to keep working with her.”
