Dog Walking Kegonsa

About: I grew up on a farm, which is pretty much where my animal obsession began! I was surrounded by cows, pigs, horses, chickens, cats, dogs — basically if it had fur, feathers, or hooves, I probably helped take care of it. Growing up around so many different animals taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how every animal has their own unique personality. Ever since then, animals have just naturally been a huge part of my life! I’m a full-time nurse with a flexible schedule, since I only work 3–4 days a week. That means I have plenty of time, energy, and attention to dedicate to your furry friends! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I accommodate to every pets needs! I have crates, I do structured playtime and go on long walks to exert energy. I also have a friendly dogs who would love to keep your pet company.

“I am so happy we found Jennifer to walk our dog. She's a very caring and responsible person. She asked great questions when we met for introductions. She was on time and let me know of schedule changes and was flexible in rescheduling. Our dog loves her. I highly recommend Jennifer to care for your pets.”

About: I worked 8 years, almost 9, and The Dog Hut LLC. I've helped care for dogs as young as 2 months and dogs well into their senior years. I'm happy to give medication to any dogs that need it and make sure they get extra cuddles and someone to "talk to". I am also very open to more than just dogs. I worked for 4 years at the Dane County Humane Society caring for Guinee Pigs, rats, and a non venomous snake. I am currently between jobs so any day works well for me. I'm happy to come late morning and well into the night to feed, water, and play with your pets who need that. Or just lend a happy presence, for the cats and cat-like pets who just need a simple hello. At my home I do not have a fully fenced in yard but am within walking distance of a few paths so even if your dog will be on leash they will get a wonderful walk in. Bringing their own toys and comfort items will be needed as I only have a cat currently. Also your dog must be cat friendly or will need to have a kennel brought with them should they be staying. I am okay staying over at my client's place should the need arise, can give medication and will give them all the playtime and snuggle breaks they need. I will be wary of weather changes so I can give them quick breaks outside and make sure they still can get energy out should it be an inside kind of day.

“Emily was incredible for us on short notice!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I recently lost my 2-year-old pup unexpectedly, and while I'm figuring out the right time to welcome another dog into my family, I'd love the opportunity to care for yours like my own. I've cared for many family and friends' dogs & cats, including overnight stays, with experience ranging from tiny 3 lb pups to 80 lb dogs. I also occasionally help care for my roommate's sister's three Great Danes, so I'm very comfortable around larger breeds! I raised and trained my own pup from just 3 months old, teaching her all sorts of tricks — both useful and just-for-fun! I enjoy working with dogs, keeping them mentally stimulated, and finding fun ways to engage with them. I also work in the Emergency Department, so I'm comfortable staying calm under pressure, thinking on my feet, and handling unexpected situations. I'm responsible, attentive, patient, and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, extra attention, help reinforcing training, or simply someone to keep them company, I'll do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being cared for just like one of my own! I typically work three 12-hour shifts per week, which leaves me with several days off to dedicate to pet care! When I'm not working, I love spending time outdoors walking, running, biking, and hiking. I enjoy bringing pets along for adventures when they're up for it, but I'm just as happy having a relaxing night in with a furry friend. I can easily adjust my routine to fit your pet's needs, whether that means getting outside for exercise and playtime, sticking to their usual feeding and walking schedule, or having a quiet day filled with cuddles and companionship. I genuinely enjoy having animals around and would love to make them part of my everyday routine! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority! I keep pet gates available throughout my home to help create safe spaces and separate areas when needed. On some weekends, there may also be a very friendly, laid-back mini schnauzer in the home, but I always prioritize making sure all pets are comfortable with one another and have their own space. I'm comfortable with the realities of pet ownership, including accidents, muddy paws, shedding, and the occasional mess! I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and am happy to clean up after pets as needed. I also understand the importance of following your instructions, maintaining familiar routines, keeping doors and gates secure, and being mindful of potential hazards. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own and do my best to keep your pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I want you to feel confident that both your pet and your home are in good hands while you're away!

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a long walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs! Small or Big not a worry! I love being outside on a long walk but also don’t mind snuggling on the couch if needed!:) I do work a full time job but it’s quite flexible with being able to leave for them to be let out quick if needed! I’m free most days after 4pm and don’t start until 9am most days! I’m the kind of person to act like your dog is my dog! Only the best for your pets because I get it you want the best for them!:) I love to play and give scratches but I’m also willing to cuddle like I said !

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up with multiple family dogs, mostly larger breeds. After college, I adopted a dog of my own who was by my side for 10 wonderful years. I've also spent the past decade volunteering at local animal shelters, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of every size and temperament, from tiny pups to gentle giants. Along the way, I've learned how to work with nervous or anxious dogs, administer medication, and care for the specific needs of senior dogs. Whatever your dog needs, chances are I've handled something similar. I can't wait to meet your pup and give them all the love they deserve! My schedule is very flexible, which makes it easy for me to work pet care into my day. My day job is fully remote, so I'm able to build walks and drop-in visits around my work rather than being tied to a rigid 9-to-5. Right now I have even more flexibility, since I'm between roles, so I can typically accommodate last-minute requests or visits at times that might be trickier for others to fit in. Since I offer drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting, I spend most of my time in your home rather than mine — so keeping things safe and familiar for your pet is my main focus. - I go over feeding, medication, and routine details with you before I start, so nothing gets missed - I double-check leashes, harnesses, and collars before every walk - I lock up and secure the house every time I come and go - I'm comfortable with nervous or anxious dogs — I read their body language and never rush them - I can manage medication schedules and give senior dogs the extra care they need - I send photo and video updates so you always know how your pup is doing - I keep your vet's info on hand just in case Your home, your routine, your dog — I just fold right in and keep things running smoothly while you're away.
