Dog Walkers in Merrill, WI

About: Hello! I’ve had pets since I was a child (mostly dogs) and have always had either cats or dogs (or both) as an adult. I also started fostering dogs about 6 years ago so I have been around many different types of dog breeds, from puppies to seniors. I have experience with kennel training puppies to get them potty trained. The rescue that I foster through has taught me so much and they’re a great resource for questions or concerns. I currently work from home and am looking for ways to get out of the house, earn money, and help other pet owners because I understand that not everyone can be home all the time. I’m compassionate, hard-working and I can’t wait to meet your 4 legged family member! I work full time from my home M-F and my job is pretty flexible. Evenings are typically open as well. Some days I can do early mornings. I would keep pets on a leash unless the yard is fenced in. They will always leashed on walks. I would administer medication if necessary, check water bowls, make sure they go potty and get some play time. I would give treats if allowed.

“Skylar is very flexible with our schedule. Tilly is very happy when I get home after her walks with Skylar! Skylar was very easy to create a plan with when she first came to visit. The house is always cleaned up after Tilly's indoor playtime, too! I would highly recommend her! Thank you, Skylar!”

“The most reliable and amazing dog walker in the area! My boys love her to death! When I mention her name they get all excited and can’t get collars on fast enough!”

“Christina is one of the finest people I’ve ever met. She’s honest, hard working, and dependable. I cannot find a single, negative thing to say about her. I would trust my pet with her any day.”

“Amazing lady! Understands dogs- has her own pack. Took the time to meet us before the planned walk. Fed and walked our big puppy.”

“I left for vacation and last minute scheduled care. Julia was highly responsive and took Artemis for walks while I was gone. I highly recommend her!”

“Alex is the kind of sitter every pet parent hopes for—reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She follows instructions meticulously, keeps me updated with cheerful photos, and leaves my home spotless. My dog returns calm and content after every stay, proving Alex’s patience and playful energy make a real difference. Wholeheartedly recommended!”

“Shane was great, he kept in touch from the day we booked the service and our dogs were happy and in their respective spots when we came home. Thanks!”

“Sarah is a trustworthy and kind pet person. She is great with all kinds of dogs, great at maintaining discipline in more unruly dogs, and encouraging shy dogs to break out of their shell. Her love for dogs is clear in her thoughtful and respectful interactions with them. She loves my dog, Susie, who is a handful, and Susie loves her and gets so excited to see her. 10/10 would recommend Sarah for all breeds and temperaments.”

“Julianna is fantastic with any and all animals. Growing up together, she’s always been hands on with all animals on our parents hobby farm. Inspired her to be a vet tech and you can tell that she lives what she does. She has so much love to give to any animal in need. She will make sure you and your pet are satisfied and happy!”

“Madeline was a perfect choice to walk Maddie while I was visiting my mom And needed to run her to some appt”

About: I’ve taken care of pets & cared for peoples homes ever since I was 12. I started in Wisconsin, by starting to pet sit one of our neighbors dogs- then we ended up moving around a bit & I eventually got more into it. I’m always wanting to meet people’s animals, it would be really nice opportunity to get back into pet sitting, walking, boarding, etc! I’m currently enrolled in college, however, i don’t start until september 5th. I just moved here, and my job got transferred over so i don’t have any hours just yet. They don’t give me many hours anyway, so i’ve been on the search for a couple more job opportunities. I really want to save some money! I have plenty of time for the next couple weeks! I care for pets depending on the service you’re looking for! I haven’t boarded pets before, I’d like to talk to you about it first before letting an unknown pet into my home. Anyways, no matter what service, I’m always gentle with animals and i’ll always put them first. I love getting to play with them & bonding with them!

“Paige is great. Josie loved her, and she has great communication skills.”

“Amy is fantastic! I have 2 dogs and they are very high- needs/special needs dogs. Not only is Amy incredibly kind and gentle, she knows them each inside out and what to watch out for with both of them. She is skilled at medication administration and taking care of health care needs. She is a loving and terrific companion for them, is present when she’s with them, and treats our dogs as her own. Amy has also pet-sat my cat and rabbit. Amy is highly dependable and trustworthy and is my #1 go-to every time I need a pet sitter.”

About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by a variety of pets, and my love for animals has only deepened with each experience. My deep love for pets, combined with my caregiving experience, allows me to approach each animal with the attention and care they need. I am dedicated to ensuring that their health and happiness are prioritized, treating them with the same love and respect as I would my own beloved dog, Buster. I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of pets and their owners! I’m currently getting my Master degree all of my classes are online which allows for my schedule to be flexible. I also caretaker for a girl with Down syndrome which has profoundly shaped my understanding of compassion, patience, and responsibility. This experience has taught me to approach every living being with empathy and respect, ensuring that their needs are always prioritized this is a vital skill in all levels of care taking whether it’s a person or a beloved pet. My own dog also feels like a person sometimes I’d do anything for him! In terms of safety and my home environment, I have an open yard where pets can play and explore freely in a secure setting. My home features two bedrooms, one of which can be designated as a quiet space for pets needing rest or can accommodate their crates if necessary. I also have a medium portable kennel that can be utilized for added comfort and security. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, but I believe in the importance of a proper introduction, so I would like to arrange a meet-and-greet before allowing any animal to stay over. Additionally, I'm more than happy to care for pets in their own homes, ensuring that they receive familiar and loving attention. Your pet's welfare is my top priority, and I am committed to providing a safe and loving environment tailored to their needs.

“Becky is the absolute best. She took care of my dog 100% and was very helpful and understanding. She was very responsive after the walks and how Buster did on the walks. I will use her again.”
