Dog Walking In Grantosa

About: I'm a dog walker and trainer currently working towards certification. I take in any age and breed but specialize in puppies and high energy dogs. I primarily work from home but leave for a few hours to work with clients. I'm typically never gone for more than 2-3 hours so I'll have plenty of time to care for and play with the pups! All dogs also typically get 1-3 hours of 1:1 time daily without any other pets with us to ensure that they're getting all the care they need. I have one large senior dog who loves to play with puppies so they'll have plenty of company! The dogs are always separated when unsupervised and have separate walks as a safety measure. We also have baby gates and play pens so dogs can be kept separated if need be. There are young children in the house.

“Michelle did a fantastic job with Finn! She was attentive, communicative, and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. We will definitely be requesting her for walks in the future.”

“Taylor was very responsive and great to work with. She answered messages quickly and clearly. My dogs are not the easiest to walk and she handled them with care.”

About: During high school and throughout college, I worked as a self-employed child caregiver, offering extra services for in-home visits that included cleaning, cooking, pet care, and dog walking ! Since then, I have personally helped friends and family with pet sitting, general care, and walking. I have experience working with a wide variety of pets, including dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, rodents and small mammals, birds, smaller reptiles, fish (primarily betta and goldfish), and toads/frogs. I have a strong knowledge of dog and cat body language/general care—well enough to aid in basic training of commands such as sit, stay, lie down, heel, and drop it—and have experience in senior care, including medication administration, with an attention to detail focused on the comfort and safety of your pet. I currently work at the Humane Society Sun, Mon, Thurs, Fri with dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, and some wildlife (: I am available most days I do not work with proper notice. I do offer same-day dog walking; however, immediate service is not always possible, so please reach out as early as possible to ensure availability ! For in-home visits, I find it important to do an initial sweep upon arrival of all pet-accessible areas in the home, taking note of and minimizing potential hazards/removing safety risks in order to keep you informed and your pet out of harm’s way ! While with your pet, I will always keep them in sight (if not within reach) to catch any potential for damage to property or harm to your pet, reducing incidents and encouraging the trust of both you and your pet.

About: I am self employed with a flexible schedule. I'm a lifelong pet owner and prefer to care for cats or small dogs only (no large dogs over 50 lbs please). I'm the aunt to dog nephew Goose and have had a cat or two in my home my entire adult life. Homeowner of 18 years, stable and reliable. I own my own business and set my own hours which allows me to have a flexible schedule. I prefer to work late mornings, afternoon, and evenings (not an early riser). I would prefer to come to your residence to care for your pet(s). I can feed, water, clean litter, play, give attention, affection, and exercise them there. I can also clean up any accidents or puke. I'm more than happy to be with your pet(s) for an hour or longer.

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.

“Olivia is reliable, honest, caring and is a wonderful friend to our dog Stella! She has a great attitude and excellent communication skills. We highly recommend her.”

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 2 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.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for several years now. Friends and family will reach out to me to walk, feed, and play with their pets as well as tend to the poopy part of pet parenting. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to check in on your pets any time of day. I also have a car and like downtown, so I have access to the Milwaukee suburbs. Because I have a reliable car, I can easily drive to your home to tend to your pets. I will follow your instructions on how best to care for your pets while going above and beyond by simply just staying with your pet so they receive socialization.

About: I have always had cats and dogs my whole life. Friends and family ask me to watch their pets frequently when they are out of town. I also have a soft spot for the senior pets who need that extra love and care. I currently work part-time from home so I have plenty of flexibility and time to spend with your pet(s) and fit in any additional care they may need. When I visit your home, just let me know your routine and I will continue your usual care to provide stability and predictability with your pet(s).

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 9 and currently have my own dog. I pet sit for coworkers and friends when they go out of town. I've raised puppies as well as cared for senior dogs. I work from home 3 days a week. I am able to check in on or walk dogs with my little dog on my lunch break or after work. (My dog does not join on cat appointments, but she gets along with most dogs on walks. Dog walking appointments without my own dog are possible upon request.) I have experience with dog and cat behavior, including reactive dogs. While I would like to bring my own dog along on walks you can request me not to if that is what's best for your dog. My dog does come with me for cat appointments ever.

“Dave is absolutely wonderful!! I felt so much better leaving my pets in his hands and being out of town for the first time. He sent updates and pictures through the entire time. He was very timely and truly cared about my pets. 10/10 recommend!!”

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.

About: Having pets all my life has given me pet care knowledge and ability to care for pets of all ages and abilities. I have had cats, dogs, bunnies and fish (currently a single cat household) throughout the years. While in college I worked as a Vet Tech and did pet sitting for clients of the vet clinic. Your pets will be loved and cherished in your home or in mine. I provide all levels of service from dog walking, drop-in daily visits, boarding or medical care visits. Currently working full-time as a pet sitter/dog walker. Available all day for all levels of service from daily walks, drop-in and medical care visits and boarding. My home is a smoke-free, fenced in yard, single cat household in the Milwaukee/Wauwatosa area. Willing to travel to provide boarding services in your home if needed. Any location in the Milwaukee area and within 30 miles.

“Krystal has done a fantastic job taking our high-energy dog on walks. She’s prompt and shares details about how things went afterwards. She’s also been great about following any specific instructions or requests. I feel very confident leaving our dog in her care and highly recommend her.”

“Thanks for taking great care of Louie, Charlotte!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My family currently has2 dogs and one cat now. I know how it feels to leave pets alone and need someone to take care of them so I thought this would be a good way to help others. I am a teacher so I have a lot of flexibility over the summer. I can be somewhat flexible during the school year depending on my schedule. I am home during the summer since I am a teacher. We have some short family vacations we take, but for the most part I am available. During the school year I am free on the weekends. Our yard is fenced, but my dogs and cat make our house full. I am happy to visit dogs or cats, walk and play with them, and do any other care they need.

“Chelsea did an amazing job walking my pup Leo. She was so responsive and sent updates which always makes me feel at ease. My pup is a nervous Nellie around other dogs and she did a wonderful job managing his behavior. Couldn’t recommend enough!!”

“Jennifer was great with my anxious dog. Very kind and understanding! I appreciated her willingness to do a meet and greet before the first walk!”

Melissa D.

“Andrew showed up on time and ready to work! He was full of energy and seemed to genuinely enjoy his time with Maximus. I would definitely recommend him for all dogs but especially young dogs with energy.”
