Dog Walking In Nakoma League

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’m especially patient with puppies (helping reinforce routines and basic training) and gentle with senior pets who may need slower walks or extra care. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care,I don’t just “watch” pets, I spend time with them, play with them, and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re gone. Feel free to book off rover as well!! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the week. Whether it’s daily visits, drop-ins, or extended stays, I can adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. I’m committed to being consistent and making sure your pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve. In a client’s home, I treat it with respect and keep everything as normal as possible for the pet—same routines, familiar spaces, and lots of love and attention. I spend quality time with them so they don’t feel alone and make sure all their needs are met. If pets stay in my home, I create a cozy, low-stress environment where they get plenty of care, playtime, and supervision. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy no matter where they are.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all kinds. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or your cat prefers a calm companion and plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also have years of experience with senior dogs with health issues. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know what makes them happiest I am a full time student in the spring and fall and normally take summer classes but this summer am saving money and taking a summer off. I have a huge amount of availability and am willing to accommodate most schedules and dates, lengths of work etc. my routine every day is walking my dog a couple miles, school work outside of the summer, afternoon walk and weekends I take her swimming at salmo pond or Indian lake. At my home I have a fenced in back yard and I have a counter surfer and a chewer so my house is always puppy proof as no doors are left open and all food and paper is pushed back by the counter. It is a no tobacco house hold and all medication, vitamins, supplements or inside a mirror cabinet. I do not purchase chewing gum with xylitol in it ever. I have extremely reliable and will answer the phone most times and if I don’t I will call back generally within a half hour. I am not afraid to ask questions about dog care if I need to clear something up. I only let my dog meet another dog if I feel comfortable with it and trust the dogs demeanor

“Nate just started walking my dogs for me while at work. My dogs like him and seem very happy from the pictures. He is very flexible for last minute walks. I really appreciate him taking good care of my girls while I’m away.”

About: I’m an incoming veterinary student and pet owner. I’ve grown up taking care of my cat and dog and love spending my time with animals. I have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 3 years. Daily dog walks are an important part of my routine and I have a flexible schedule. I love meeting new people and animals on the island! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am an active person. I also keep my dog leashed and am amenable to dog’s specific needs.

“Jennifer was fantastic! Both dogs loved having her walk them. Can’t thank Jennifer enough for giving the dogs the attention they needed while we were away from home for the day.”

“Allegra has been so helpful, not only in walks but also advice! My dog has had a crusty nose that hasn’t gone away even with vets advice and she was able to give me tips that got it so much better.”

Holly F.

“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!!”

“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!”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. I grew up with a Newfoundland, walked dogs for neighbors, cared for cats for friends who travel, and even have duck and chicken sitting experience! I'm an active and positive minded person. I'm always down for a long walk, but equally love hanging on the couch with some cute pups/cats! I'm currently working on the weekends only, so I have plenty of time during the week to hang and play with your pets during the week, or in the evening on the weekends. I feel confident in maintaining your pets' safety within your home. I am attentive and will keep them within a fenced area when off leash, can crate dogs/cats when needed, and provide food, treats, medicine, etc. fit to your request/your pets' needs.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life and currently care for my own pets, including a senior cat with special dietary and medical needs. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable monitoring behavior changes, administering routine care, and following detailed instructions. As a psychology graduate from UW–Madison, I am patient, observant, and dependable. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust while keeping routines consistent. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, medication management, or simply a calm and reliable presence, I will care for them as if they were my own. I am especially comfortable with cats, senior pets, shy animals, and pets that benefit from extra patience and attention. I ’m currently building my pet-sitting business and have a flexible schedule for drop-in visits, dog walks, and cat care throughout the week, as well as house-sitting. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make every effort to follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and playtime. I’ll always communicate clearly and provide updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax and maintain as much of their normal routine as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and any special care requests. I am attentive to behavior changes and will keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“My dog loves Hannah! She is reliable and always shows up on time! She makes sure to let me know if she uses the bathroom and is overall very good at what she dos and I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by and taken care of animals since I was a toddler. I grew up with all sorts of animals in the home from Guinea pigs and bunnies to dogs and birds! I’ve pet sat on occasion including dogs and cats as well as chickens and horses! I’m currently self employed and am taking on work through Rover to support my business as I’ve experienced a transition with work over the past few months. This makes me very flexible during the week and weekends. I want to provide an experience that makes you feel comfortable and your pet cared for when you aren’t able to be there. Creating an environment that reflects the care that you give your pets is my priority as a pet owner myself.

About: I’ve been a dog sitter for over four years to a family that travels quite a bit! I also help my neighbors walk and feed their pets when they are gone! I also have a cat of my own in my hometown and love to spoil her!! I’m a recent UW grad in between jobs, meaning I have PLENTY of time on my hands to play with your pets!! I am super communicative and notoriously flexible schedule wise - for I want to be with your pets as much as possible!! My home offers a large open concept for your pets to frolic around! My current schedule allows me to be really good with feeding and potty schedules! I do not have a fence, but I will spend my time outside with your animals in my spacious yard and nearby walking paths and parks!

“Shaina is the best! She takes great care of our two fluffballs - they love her. She’s also incredibly friendly and considerate. Would highly recommend!”

“We love having Katie come in to walk our dog! She does such a great job and always checks in with us if anything is new or needs to be done extra. So happy to have her as our dog walker!!”

About: Hi all, my name is Alina and I’m new to Rover :). I have been a reliable dog/cat sitter for family, friends, and co-workers for a few years. I am a respectful, friendly, animal-loving soul that is free all summer to care for pets and make them feel safe and happy! I am starting medical school in the fall so I am excited to get some time with furry friends this summer. I love getting animals outside for walks and playtime. I am happy to work with pets of all ages. I am not working any particular job this summer other than pet-sitting. With this, my schedule is very flexible and I’m available just about any day of the week/weekends except a few select dates. I’m happy to work early mornings and late nights too if needed. At my client’s home, I care for pets by following their feeding routine, brushing their fur, and incorporating lots of playtime and exercise. While I haven’t been previously asked, I would also be happy to bathe pets if requested!

“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.

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

“Ashley is always so reliable!! When my husband travels and I am at a work all day it’s great knowing my dogs are still getting their exercise! My 18 month old border-jack really needs it!! My 13 year old border Collie just likes a little attention!”

Sue L.

“Michelle was fantastic! My dog Samson took to her right away and she did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing while I was away on vacation, which gave me huge peace of mind. Will definitely use her for dog walks in the future!”
