Dog Walking Menomonie

About: Hey! My name is Josh, I am a college student at UW Stout. I am living in Blaine for the summer, and I'm here to help care for your furry friend during this hot summer. I'm a lifelong dog lover who has had dogs in my home for as long as I can remember. Growing up with 3 Labs taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving dogs the attention and care they deserve. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I'm committed to making sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, getting belly rubs, or just having someone nearby, I'll make sure they get the attention they need. I understand that every dog is unique, and I'm happy to follow your pet's routine, preferences, and any special instructions to keep them happy and stress-free. I look forward to meeting you and your 4 legged family member! I am currently working full-time but I will happily make the time to care for your pup! I am available anytime after 3:30pm Monday-Thursday, and anytime after 1pm on Fridays. Most weeks I have Monday or Tuesday off. I am usually not available on the weekends but never say never! At your residence for a walk or a drop-in, I will do my best to keep it the same or better than I found it. I will also try my best to keep your pet on their regular schedule for feeding, walking, and playtime. I also have a female Yellow Lab of my own so if your dog likes other dogs I am more than happy to bring her for your pup to have some social time!

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. Ive dealt with multiple dogs at once, all with different personalities. From shy, energetic, to reactive. I have done everything from daily walks, to overnight stays for clients. Handling the different routines. Another plus is that I grew up fostering dogs, so I have experience with a lot of different breeds creating a very patient and observant demeanor. I am currently working part-time and looking for some extra work. My availability is pretty flexible as long as you are as well! I can either do stop by's for walks once a day, or a multiple day care schedule, with 2-4 hours of being out of the house. I'd love to chat and work something out! When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, walk times, medications, crate routines, and any house rules. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of bathroom breaks, and safe, supervised time outside. I spend quality time with each pet, whether that means playing, training practice, gentle cuddles, or just giving them company so they don’t feel alone. It is all about respect and I respect your home also respect your home, treating your space the same way I’d want mine treated.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, and I currently have a family dog that is 7 years old, whom I care for. I also pet sit my neighbor's dog on occasion, which I love doing. I currently work weekdays from 7-4 and sometimes get off early, so I would be available after that. Sometimes I'm available during the day, and I am available most weekends anytime during the day or night. I am very good with nervous pets. I have a dog with a lot of anxiety, and I know how to handle those situations. Your pet's safety is my number one priority.

About: I have lived with cats and dogs in my life for the last 25 years. I love them all! I have had labs, Australian shepherds, springers, mixes of breeds, etc. Pet care fits easily into my routine! As a teacher, I have evenings, weekends, and summers off, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m home most nights and have plenty of free time during school breaks, making it easy for me to give pets the attention, walks, and care they need. I love working animals into my daily rhythm — they’re a joy to be around! I care for every pet as if they were my own! Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. At home, I have a sweet chocolate lab named Willow who’s gentle and friendly with other animals. I follow any routines or instructions you provide closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time—so your pet feels right at home, wherever they are!

“Tori was the first dog walker Winnie has had. I'm very happy to learn Tori and Winnie were best friends by the end of the walk. I will definitely use her again when I'm away for long days to give Winnie a break from her guard duty watching out the front window.”

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I'm currently working a full time job, however I still have plenty of time to watch your fur babies!! If anything changes I will let you all know ASAP!! I have two very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if needed, or I can separate my dogs from your dogs if needed. I also have toys for them to play with so they won't get bored.

“Ezra does a great job with our pups! Highly recommend them.”

“Aaralyn does a fantastic job walking my two dogs! They pull me on the leash but she handles them like a pro. She also leaves me feedback after every walk.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, I’ve worked with seniors and puppies and everything in between! I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare and have done lots of grooming for both cats and dogs! I am available night and day! I am easy to reach and am ready to come at any time! I am a stay at home cat mom! I have 2 cats of my own, I give them the best nutrition and brain stimulation! I am constantly researching the best for both cats and dogs!

About: I have worked for roughly two years dog sitting for friends and family. Typically these have been in my own home - occasionally overnight. I have a fenced in back yard for my 3 dogs & 2 cats so I have experience with both :) I have complete availability currently, so my dog at home gets quite a lot of walks and park time. If possible, i also try to socialize him with people each day. Typically I take my dog to the dog park in the evening with a long walk in the morning. This works best for my dogs energy levels, but each dog is different. I am also trying to socialize my dog in public as he is a bit scared of humans so we try to hit some breweries here and there.

About: Aside from having a dog and two cats in my family home, I have walked dogs, pet sat, completed check-ins for both cats and dogs, and even have experience in extended stays! I am a busy college student looking to lighten the loads of pet-owners in my area! For the time being, I will primarily be available for check-ins and shorter walks due to my availability :) I love walking the neighborhoods of Menomonie, and exploring the many beautiful parks and water locations around! I have a car to transport dogs to parks if need be, otherwise I am always cautious of other animals when out, and make sure to keep our distance, just in case :)

About: They say to do what you love and make a career out of it. I’m just grateful my career gets to be with dogs. I currently work at a doggy daycare/boarding facility in the area, so I am certified with dog and cat behaviors and have seen the ups and downs of our fur babies, and I am still standing here happy to tell you all about their stay/session. I have also grown up with working farm dogs and have gone on to own a Great Pyrenees who isn’t quite a working dog but sure does “work” like one. Thank you for reading through my short history and I am super excited to update this with my accomplishments to come! Pet care for me starts at dawn lol My pups come for cuddles and a potty break first sight of my eyes opening. Most of the time this does align with my schedule in the 6 am timeframe. Our family does always thankfully have one person home at all times, so while kennels are still utilized in our home for various situations, your pups can expect to stay in a home environment while here :) While I personally do not have a yard, my family does own large pasture fields and hills that we will typically walk daily. These colder seasons do affect how often we go out due to the snow and unplowed hills. However in that safe weather we make it a main priority to keep active with our pups to maintain a healthy and long life for them. Safety is priority number one. Thankfully my family is pretty much set up for success here. We are knowledgeable for food, behavior, and play safety with dogs and cats. Signs and symptoms of common issues with dogs and cats, based off personal experiences, and possible fears of what ifs, urinary cat blockages and bloat, or bloody stools. And while I understand dog body language and know how to avoid those tense situations dogs can create, I am incredibly quick to say when we are going to the emergency vet, gosh forbid.

About: Animals and pets of any kind have held a special place in my heart for most of my life. I have experience dog sitting animals 10- 80 lbs and have cared for as many as 3 at a time. I currently don't own any animals, but I would love to take care of yours! I am available for house/pet sitting & walking on weekdays and weekends. My availability is pretty open and can be tailored to fit your needs! I will care for your pet(s) in your home with the utmost respect and responsibility. Whatever your pet needs are, I will work with you to make sure we have a plan to keep your pet(s) comfortable and safe. I am comfortable following a routine or giving medications if needed.

About: I have had cats basically my whole life and I currently have a dog at my parents house. I have dog sat a few times for my neighbors dog. I am currently looking to drop in on cats and/ or dogs and walk dogs in the late afternoon. I ask for a five day notice but depending on my schedule I might be able to make some exceptions here and there! I treat all pets like they are my own. I care about the safety and living of all animals. I am patient and caring and I put those skills into my work with animals.

About: I’ve taken care of a wide range of pets. From cats, dogs, birds, rodents and farm animals. I am also able to take care of animals with higher needs. I’ve had elderly pets who need medication and animals that I have found with injuries that I took care of. Right now I am working part time, 1-7 I am unavailable but I am able to come in anytime outside of that. My weekends are open, I am rarely out of town. I know how important routines are so sticking to what is requested is essential. Animals that need to be kept separate is also an important thing to know.

About: I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs, different ages, and weights! I love making sure the pets receive their best care possible! I love being able to take dogs on walks and make sure all there needs are met! I oftentimes am babysitting but love doing dog watching/sitting OR just taking your dog for a walk whenever I am free! I have quite a bit of free time to help you out with your pets needs! I will make sure that your dog is safe wherever he/she goes! When walking dogs I usually will walk them close to me with the leash being pulled up to my hip (unless requested otherwise). That way I can make sure I have your dog secure and safe!

About: As an experienced pet sitter, I am dedicated to providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. From feeding, walking, and playtime to administering medications and maintaining routines, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving attentive, responsible, and personalized care in a stress-free environment I work Monday- Thursday so that allows me to have plenty of time at home with animals on the weekends to give them the time and attention they need. I have a very nice neighborhood with walking paths to make sure animals are getting the exercise and time they need to play around outside.

About: Something that sets me apart from others is the fact that I raised my parents dog Hildi as I was doing online school at the time! Pet care fits great into my routine as I am only going to school part time. I absolutely love spending time with dogs and/or cats! I will promise to care for your pet as they’re my own, no matter the circumstance! I will always provide the most that I can:)
