Dog Walkers in Melrose, WI

“Emily was great to work with as someone I could trust to walk my dog and check in on my cats! Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet care services”

“I booked Courtney to walk my dog for 2 days while I was working and my family was out of town. I chose her as she has experience in a doggie daycare and with larger dogs, which Bruno is. She responded quickly, came to visit us before the scheduled days and even brought her beautiful dog, Remi, with to play. It worked out perfectly, Bruno got exercise and he loved Courtney! I got a report and picture for every walk. I would definetely use Courtney again for my doggie needs and I highly recommend her!”

About: I have had multiple breeds of dogs or cats my whole life. I love all sorts of animals. They are more than a pet, they are family to me. I am working mom that just enjoys helping others out by watching their pets while they are out of town. I work typically 8am to 5 pm Tuesday through Saturdays and am available Sunday and Mondays any time. I am flexible. Each pet is different, but typically I make sure the pet is fed and has water. I allow for play time and depending on the weather, for dogs I will take for walks or play outside.

“Makayla did a great job walking my senior dog daily while I was unable to, due to my own injury. She is very responsive and accommodating to any changes in schedule needed.”

About: I love animals of all kinds! I’m a nurse looking to hang out with your pets on my days off. I have experience with every care need from early puppy socialization to end of life care. I haven’t met a dog yet I didn’t immediately become besties with, from the tiniest chihuahua to the biggest pittie or Dane. I’m also happy to look after any other animals you might have, from reptiles to birds to horses. Just ask and we’ll make it work! I have a rotating schedule that includes a full week off every third week. I work 5p-3a three days a week (and every third weekend). Just message and we’ll figure something out! Yours: I understand being particular about one’s home, so no reasonable request relating to my conduct there would be too much! Cleaning up after myself is a given, as is following any personal house rules. Mine: All of my animals are up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick medication, and I require the same from any animal I keep in my home. They would be kept separate from my 4 cats for the first couple of days, but with discretion and communication I would be fine with introducing them if they were interested in each other. Smoke free home.

“Emily helped us out during an emergency and is very dependable, thorough and kind. We appreciate her taking care of our dog!!”

I do have a dog friendly cat who can keep ur fur baby company

About: From a very young age, I have had a strong appreciation for animals of all kinds. I was raised in a household with multiple cats and dogs and was frequently responsible for their care. My responsibilities included training puppies, feeding animals dry food, wet food, and bottle feeding when necessary, as well as ensuring they were taken outside for regular bathroom breaks. I currently have a cat of my own named Walter and also provide dog-sitting services for family friends. :) Currently I am not employed due to going to school very soon, which means I will have plenty of time to care for the animal 24/7 and give them all the love they need! :) I will care for your pups or cats the way you would like me to care for them. I do really good with lists, and love to keep the animals company :)

About: What sets me apart? When your pet is in my care (at my home or your own), I make them my priority from start to finish and treat them like my own. When guest dogs are staying in my home I sleep with them in our spare bedroom (no kenneling at night or during the day unless you request I do so) and if I'm house sitting you can rest assured that I will leave your home and pets as good or better than I found them. I never charge extra for walks, playing fetch, taking them on a car ride, or doing an activity they enjoy. I want your pet to feel like they're on vacation, too :) When I'm house sitting for a client I aim to be there the entire time, and since I work remotely (as long as you have quality wi-fi) I am able to work from your home - this means your pet gets even more time and attention, and if I do have to leave it will only be for a very short period and I will communicate this to you prior. If you do not need/want me there 24/7 we can discuss and adjust price based on what we agree upon during our meet and greet. I aim to be as flexible as possible to meet both your need and your budget... I know this is an investment! I am here because I love the idea of helping other pet-parents know their pets can be taken care of when they are busy or want to enjoy time away with loved ones. I am also here because anyone who knows me knows how much I love animals :) both my own and any animal I meet. I have experience with all sorts of animals and I'm equally as comfortable with both dogs and cats... big and small. I also have experience with tricky behaviors (aggressiveness, food guarding, potty training, learning to walk on a leash, teaching commands, etc.). I can administer medicine, communicate with vet offices effectively, and I am known for providing all of the updates/pictures/videos someone would like while I'm caring for their pet! For awareness, dogs and cats are kept separate in our home. We do this for safety :) There is an underground fence for our dogs and this is an option if your dogs are collar trained. If not, no problem - I am happy to take pets out on a leash. Safety is my top priority, so I will strictly follow the instructions given for your pet(s). When it comes to inside the home, I will closely monitor all play/interactions and if needed, I will separate and/or give primarily 1 on 1 time with your pet if that is what they require. Please note: if you live more than 45 miles from my address I do charge a 1x flat fee of $50.00 while house sitting. Similarly, if you live more than 25 miles from my address I charge a 1x flat fee of $12.00 for dog walking and/or drop-in visits. Thank you for your understanding!

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I find myself naturally drawn to animals and giving them love and care. I have lengthy leadership and animal care experience. I currently serve as a state officer for FFA and have taken a veterinary animal science class through my school. I just want give your pets the love and care that they receive with you. I have lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I was always in charge of feeding, and walking, and playing with the animals. As well as bathing and ensuring their care is where it needs to be. I am an active person who loves to go on hikes, or play fetch in the yard. I am currently a student at WSU and have a lot of free time, asside from when I have classes. I always care for other people's pets, by the way I want my pets to be treated. I strive to ensure that every pet feels happy, and healthy and have all their needs taken care of. I will gladly take your dog for a walk, to go get a pup cup or snuggle up and watch a movie. Whatever care you want for your pet, I will ensure that it happens!

About: I am an animal lover. I have had cats my whole life and dogs for about 20 years total. My "children" are my 3 cats and German Shepherd. I will treat your animal like my own. I do home visits, home stays, and walks. Don't put off your vacation because you don't want to leave your beloved animals. Let me take care of them! Thank you! - Samantha I am currently a remote freelance graphic designer and this allows me to set my own schedule and have flexibility. My husband and I do not currently have children so that also allows me to have a more open schedule without interruptions. I am not a person who has pets without considering their needs and happiness. I play with them, make sure they get medical care, medication, and make sure they feel safe and loved with cuddle time. I know that having a pet is a responsibility and a privilege.

“Linsie is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Her text responses are also super quick and she was able to agree to walk my dog with short notice. I had no problem trusting her with my fur babes. Thank you! It was a wonderful experience.”

About: I have been taking care of pets my entire life! I have a dog of my own and she even had puppies last year! I raised the puppies myself and ensured they went to good homes! I took the time to make sure they were well trained before they went to their forever homes! I usually close at my other job, so I am usually free during any day until around 3 or 4pm! Again, with notice I can make any care needed work! I again have a dog of my own and can ensure that fur baby will be happy and have the company they need! My personal dog is certainly spoiled and well taken care of!
