I am able to keep pets under control during walks using positive reinforcement and handle encounters with other animals well during walks.

About: Hi there! 🐾 My name is Brian, and animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up surrounded by family pets to helping neighbors with their furry friends, I’ve built years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even the occasional small critter. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I love. Experience & Skills Dogs of All Sizes & Personalities: I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies who are still learning leash manners to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and gentle care. Whether it’s high-energy walks, playtime fetch sessions, or slow, comforting strolls, I tailor each outing to the dog’s needs. Cats & Small Pets: I understand that cats and smaller animals need a calm and respectful approach. I’m comfortable providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes, giving affection, or simply being a quiet, trustworthy presence for those who are more independent. Medication & Special Needs: I have experience administering oral medications and following special feeding or activity routines. I know how important consistency is for pets with health needs, and I always take extra care to follow instructions closely. Safety First: I’m attentive on walks, always checking surroundings, watching for other animals, and making sure your pet is safe and comfortable. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority. What I Offer Dog Walking: From quick potty breaks to long, energy-burning walks, I’ll make sure your pup gets the exercise and stimulation they need. Drop-in Visits: I can stop by for feeding, playtime, and check-ins to ensure your pets are happy, hydrated, and cared for while you’re away. House Sitting: For pets who prefer the comfort of their own space, I’m available to stay in your home, keeping your pet company and maintaining their normal routine. Why Choose Me? I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand the trust it takes to let someone else care for your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can expect regular updates, photos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. At the end of the day, I want both you and your pet to feel at ease. My goal is to provide not just reliable pet care, but genuine companionship that makes tails wag and purrs rumble. One of the most important parts of pet care is consistency, and I structure my schedule to make sure your pets get the attention they need when they need it most. 🐾 Weekly Availability Weekdays (Mon–Fri): I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This means I can cover everything from quick morning potty breaks to afternoon walks or evening feedings. Weekends (Sat–Sun): I keep my weekends flexible for pet care, so whether you’re away for the day or traveling overnight, I can be there to keep your pets happy and safe. Flexibility I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. If your plans change suddenly, I’ll do my best to step in and help. I can adjust to your pet’s normal routine — whether they’re early risers, midday snackers, or nighttime cuddlers, I’ll keep their schedule consistent so they feel secure. Services by Time of Day Morning Walks / Check-Ins: Great for pups who need exercise before you head to work. Midday Visits: Perfect for a potty break, feeding, or playtime to break up the day. Evening Care: Walks, dinner feeding, litter care, or winding down with snuggles. Overnight Stays: For pets who need extra comfort, I offer overnight house sitting to keep their routine stable in their own home. Communication I’ll always confirm availability ahead of time, and I send updates during each visit so you know exactly when I was there and how your pet is doing. When it comes to caring for pets, I believe three things matter most: safety, trust, and environment. These are the values I bring to every walk, visit, or overnight stay. 🐾 Safety First Your pet’s wellbeing is always my top priority. I stay alert on walks, keeping a close eye on traffic, other animals, and potential hazards. I never let pets off-leash unless in a fully secure, enclosed space, and I follow your instructions carefully when it comes to feeding, exercise, or medications. I’m also trained to notice subtle changes in behavior or health so small issues don’t go unnoticed. 🐾 Built on Trust I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets and your home in someone else’s care. That’s why I communicate openly, follow directions to the letter, and send regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. My goal is for you to feel complete peace of mind knowing your pets are cared for as if they were my own. 🐾 A Comfortable Environment I believe pets thrive best when their routines and spaces feel consistent. Whether I’m visiting your home or staying overnight, I make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. For cats, that may mean quiet patience and gentle interaction. For dogs, that could mean structured walks and plenty of play. Every animal has their own rhythm, and I take the time to adapt to it.
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was about 10 years old. Throughout the years I have cared for my neighbors and family friends pets along side my own pups. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I plan my days so that walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are done consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and exercise so their pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and receive lots of attention. I make sure they have a comfortable place to rest, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to the pet’s usual routine, provide walks and playtime, keep food and water fresh, and make sure the home stays tidy. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while their owners are gone.
“Booked Bianca for a walk for my Yorkiepoo, Jasmine, and it was perfect. She showed up on time, asked a couple quick questions, and handled Jasmine like a pro. I got a pic during the walk, and Jaz did that happy-tired nap right after. Easy 5 stars.”
About: I’m familiar with all types of dogs from yorkies to pit bulls I’m used to every type of dog. I’m flexible and willing to learn all your dog’s needs to make sure that you feel comfortable with them in my care. I’m currently studying for my certification in Histology so I am in and out of the library. I’d love to get a serotonin boost by taking care of your babies in the mean time. I have a big beautiful yard with a pond and two little dogs who love friends. I can also give your baby a wash if they decide to take a dip in the water.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Professionally I have worked with animals for about 5 years now. I worked at a doggy daycare for almost 3 years. Working there taught me a great deal about animal behavior and different kinds of dog personalities. I currently work at an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant. My job duties involve administering medication daily and taking care of both dogs and cats. I have previously worked at an emergency veterinary hospital as well, which helped me learn how to react best under pressure. I have 3 fur babies of my own (1 dog and 2 cats). I have previously volunteered at local animal shelters where I met many different types of dogs and cats. I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant, so during the week I am only available before 7:30am and after 5:30pm. I am fully available on the weekends! I am happy to follow any directions left for me about caring for your fur babies! I have pets of my own that all have different feeding schedules, amounts, and medications. So lists of requests and directions do not scare me!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 94 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Madison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Madison. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Madison.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
