Dog Walking Midvale Heights Community

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old. I grew up with dogs, helped train my family’s pups, and have been the go-to dog sitter for family and friends for years. I’m comfortable with walks, baths, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, or a little goofy, I’ll treat them like they’re my own :) Currently accepting bookings for July only, as I will be moving at the end of the month! See my calendar for availability! I’m currently a graduate student finishing my final courses online this summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available by request in the mornings, afternoons, and on weekends, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to be flexible and reliable so I can step in and provide consistent care whenever you need help with your pets :) I always aim to make them feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible. I’m very adaptable and I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs. Before any booking, I like to ask a few questions about your pet’s habits, personality, and preferences so I can provide the best care tailored specifically to them. I follow feeding, walking, and medication routines closely and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If I’m in your home, I also respect your space and keep things clean and consistent for your pet so they feel secure in their familiar environment.

“I’m so thankful to have Allegra as a dog walker- she is a rock star! I feel so safe with her care with the dogs, and she always has great feedback after every walk.”

“We have worked with Jennifer for a couple months now. She has been on top of the ball for quick responses and short notice weekend availability. Very professional and reliable. Raja, our dog, looks forward to his walks with her as well. Thank you for all of your hard work!”

“Hannah did a great job on short notice! My dog is terrified of everything but walked well with Hannah. Thank you!!!”

About: Our kids LOVE dogs, they pretty much live for them. We can't have our own right now, so we want to love on yours while you're away! We've owned our own dogs, and both of the adults grew up taking care of and loving dogs. We're happy to help reinforce any training that you're doing with your pup! We work during the week, but we can spend the weekend giving full-time care to your dog! We are open to watching your pup during the week, but they would be home alone from about 9am-4:30 pm. Just send me a message if you need longer care than the weekend and we can discuss details! We have a fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play fetch. We can offer plenty of outside time and bathroom breaks, we're happy to keep your pet on their typical schedule!

“Very satisfied and happy thus far with Nate's care of our puppy. He's been extremely responsive to communication, prompt and timely for scheduled walks, sends fun photos during their time together, and our puppy seems to have taken very well to him. I would have no hesitations recommending him to friends or family!”

“Austin is fantastic! I love all of the pictures, updates, flexibility, and care he takes while walking Mazie! She always looks so happy and excited! Will recommend Austin to anyone and everyone!”

“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”

“Lydia was punctual, caring, and was clearly attentive to our dog Rupert!!! Thank you, Lydia!!!”

“It was reassuring knowing Ellie and Riley got to go on walks while I was at work . Ashley was so great during our meet and great and really interacted nicely with the dogs! I will definitely be scheduling time with Ashley again, and consider her for overnights for short trips!!”

Sue L.

“Anaya was wonderful with our two dogs. She was always on time and provided timely responses to questions and updates on our fur babies. We would love to have her take care of our dogs again!”

Matt H.

“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”

Marissa G.

“Michelle is fantastic. I have a service dog who helps me with daily tasks. I was looking for a dog walker just for the winter months when it's hard to get around in my wheelchair. Michelle put me at ease right from the start by asking all the right questions about the appropriate commands to use before the first walk. The best part is that my dog always returns home fulfilled, tired and content. I'm so impressed that Rover offers experienced walkers, even for someone that has a specially trained dog like myself :)”

Lisa K.

“Alisyn did a great job with Willis! Her feedback was helpful and it was nice to know he was being well taken care of. Alisyn worked with us on everything we needed. Highly recommend! We will be continuing to use her services.”

Mike & Jenny B.

“I needed some last minute help with my senior dog, and Alissa responded back quickly and was able to help me out!! She came to meet our pets and get the layout, and helped us out almost right away! She is very kind and gentle with our Murphy and even gives our two cats some loving even though we booked her for a dog walk! As someone with OCD and anxiety, my brain and body feel comfortable and safe with Alissa taking care of our senior puppy when we aren’t at home. Looking forward to hopefully booking with her again!!”

Sophie M.

“Robert is excellent--a great personality, responsive and reliable. We are very pleased to have found him and ws look forward to having him help out with our pups in the future.”

Joel W.

“Trisha walked my dog Buster and took excellent care of him! Trisha is caring, responsible, and thorough. I will definitely hope to book Trisha in the future.”

About: Hello my name is Annamaria! I’m about to be a junior here at UW madison pursuing a career in nursing. I am very passionate about healthcare and quality patient care but I always loved animals! I have a lot of experience with dogs and a little with cats (though I am willing to learn). I have owned my dog for 17 years. She was a smaller dog but I also have experience with larger dogs from my step dad’s pitt mix who is now a senior. In addition I have done a lot of work at PAWs Chicago. I have clocked over 150 hours of volunteer service and fostered 14 dogs/puppies and 2 kittens. With fostering I have gained experience in potty training and giving medications of all kinds. With volunteering I have done a lot of dog and cat socialization and walks. Additionally in moving to level 2 volunteering I took a dog behavior class and gained experience in how to detect and react to rough and anxious behavior in pets. I also love going on walks especially in the summer so if you have a pet thats looking for some activity I’m your girl! I have also had experience with parakeets, hamsters, and guinea pigs (it was really easy to convince my mom to get new pets). As Summer approaches and classes our ending I’m looking at a lot of open availability starting May 16 to be flexible to owners needs. In my time volunteering I have seen that animals all have different personalities that can vary situation to situation so I really want to give your animals the space and patience to get to know me on their terms. Caring for my own animals at home incudes giving them the resources, love, and enrichment they need for a fulfilling day.

About: I have been dog, baby, and house sitting since I was 10 (~13 years). I have personally had a cat and 4 dogs throughout growing up and have taken diligent and loving care of them from walks/runs, veterinary care, to lots and lots of snuggles. I'm currently a student doing predominantly online classes, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to fit pet care into the routine. I also lead a very active lifestyle taking multiple walks/jogs throughout the day that would only be enhanced with a furry companion. I live in an apartment with no other pets and I have a very clean and safe indoor living area as well and could always crate him/her if needed.

“Hillary did an amazing job walking my shy pup and quickly won her over! In addition to being amazing with my dog, Hillary did and excellent job communicating with me about how my dog did on their walks, tactics she used to help build up my dog's confidence, and Hillary even helped clean up a potted plant that my dog had knocked over one day. I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”
