Dog Walking in Newberry Heights, Madison, WI

About: I am in incoming second year at Colorado State University majoring in animal science and looking to become a Veterinarian. I have sat for family and friends pets since a very young age and have enjoyed all of my experiences. I worked at University of Wisconsin’s vet clinic for two years in High School taking care of and cleaning up after various kinds of animals. I am looking to gain more experience while I am home over the summer and caring for animals is something I love to do! I am available almost everyday over the summer with exceptions of some vacations. I am very flexible on the days I am in town as I don’t have another job or any other prior commitments. I can do anything needed including walking, feeding, cleaning up after, spending time with, or playing with animals. I would not be able to take any pets at my house since I have two dogs of my own but I would be more than willing to stay over at owner’s homes! really anything needed involving animal care I can provide.

“Jennifer is great! We'd love for her to walk our dog again (in fact we already rebooked). We needed help once a week with our 8mo puppy. Jennifer always picks him up on schedule and returns him happy and well exercised! Our dog loves everyone but my husband is convinced the pup loves Jennifer extra.”

About: With 12 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. I am skilled in administering medications and can accommodate any special requirements your pet may have. Whether it’s providing extra attention, managing specific routines, or ensuring their health and comfort, I’m dedicated to giving your pet the best care possible. I'm studying full time for my MCAT exam, so this is my only job at the moment. That being said, I make my own schedule and can adapt to the schedule that works best for you! I understand the importance of respecting both your home and your pet’s routine while pet sitting. I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I’ll treat your home with the utmost care, being mindful of your space and preferences, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away.

About: I've taken care of my small fluffy Shih Tzu, Ginger, since I was ten years old. I have always loved taking him on walks, running around outside, and playing together. I also have experience pet-sitting my neighbors two medium sized Golden Doodles over the past few summers! In addition, my boyfriend's family has adopted multiple rescue dogs that I have had the opportunity to care for and help them get adjusted to a new space. I am a recent graduate from Emory University looking to spend some time with dogs. I have lots of free time to give lots of attention and love to any dog! I am currently only offering services in client homes only right now, as I live in a smaller apartment. I can definitely adjust to whatever you are comfortable with!

About: Hi, my name is Ava! I am looking to provide dog walking & check in services in the West Madison area. I am committed to providing individualized care, strong attention to detail, and genuine interest and compassion for animals. I grew up in a family that took in a variety of pets to provide a safe home. I am a strong believer in your fuzzy friends being your best friends! They deserve to be treated with care and love while you're away, just as I would want for my dog. I rescued my miniature pinscher 6 years ago and she is now 15 years old! She is both an old lady and still my little baby. I love all animals and I'm so excited to meet yours! I have experience working with children and youth with diverse needs, and that level of care and patience extends naturally to animals with anxiety, behavioral challenges, or special routines. My background in caregiving and support work has taught me to be highly responsible, communicative, and reliable. I’m organized, dependable, and quick to respond — qualities that give pet owners peace of mind. I also go the extra mile with photo updates, customized activities, and keeping pets happy and stress-free while their humans are away. I’m active and love outdoor time — whether it’s long walks, playing fetch, or trail adventures, I’m happy to match your dog’s energy level. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule from 7am-5pm, but it is not consistent every day. I am able to work my schedule around visits and walks if I have enough time to plan. Just message me with details! I could board pets during the day if it's a small dog with no aggression. I have a 15 year old miniature pinscher that gets anxious around medium-large dogs that have anxiety as well and/or some aggression. I am happy to do drop ins and walks throughout the day!

About: I have grown up with a dog in my household for my whole life and i was responsible for bathing, walking, feeding, and playing with the dog. I also regularly dog sit for friends and family. :) I am pretty flexible with my schedule, I am free most days, especially the weekends. I work during the day usually from 10am-4:30pm monday-friday, but my schedule varies week to week. Every pet is different and how I will care for them will depend on the owners directions and the pets needs. I love playing with pets and taking them for walks, and of course I will do what is needed in terms of giving them medicine, cleaning, feeding, etc.

About: I am a dog lover who work from home, so your pup will always have care and attention. My own sweet dog Nila loves having canine friends over to play or relax with! I'm happy to set up a meet & greet sessions beforehand. I pride myself on being highly communicative—expect lots of photo and video updates throughout the day :) I stay home Thursdays-Sundays. This means your pup will never be left alone for long stretches and can enjoy frequent potty breaks, walks, and play sessions throughout the day. We usually start the morning with a potty break and outdoor time. Midday includes more walks, visit to dog park, or play with Nila. We wrap up the evening with another outdoor break and wind-down time. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a quiet spot to relax, we’ll adjust the routine to meet their needs. We live in a quiet, dog-friendly residential area surrounded by parks, grassy trails, and trees. We live on the first floor, with quick and easy access to the outdoors, including a dog run.

“Magan is great with my dogs! She is punctual and takes them for a nice long walk everyday! Will definitely continue to use her services and highly recommend.”

About: With over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats from a young age, I provide attentive, loving, and safe care. I am skilled in managing pets with strong leash-pulling behaviors and handling various situations to ensure they remain calm, controlled, and away from danger such as harmful foods or chasing other animals. My priority is always the safety, happiness, and well-being of every pet under my care. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I have hands-on experience handling multiple breeds, from small Poodles to large Labradors and Bernedoodles, including dogs with strong pulling strength. As a Golden Retriever owner, I take my dog out multiple times a day for long walks and hikes, ensuring both physical exercise and mental stimulation. This routine has made me skilled at managing dogs of all sizes and energy levels. When caring for pets at my home, I create a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, regular walks, and consistent feeding schedules. I ensure they are comfortable, supervised, and get both exercise and affection throughout the day. At clients’ homes, I follow all provided instructions carefully—maintaining feeding times, walking routines, and any special care requirements. I respect their home and make sure pets feel comfortable in their own space while keeping them safe, engaged, and happy. If needed, I can provide video service to capture all the work I did since I completely understand how we as pet owners like to see what our best pet friend did with a new friend.

“Very thoughtful walker & made sure my pup got plenty of exercise during his walks. Would recommend to anyone! Even left August some treats, which went above and beyond all expectations!”

About: I spent the first 5 years of my career in Doggy Daycare, Animal Husbandry, and Emergency/CCU Veterinary Medicine. I apprenticed beside a working dog trainer and trained a successful service dog by the age of 20 years old. I own 3 dogs, 2 Golden Retrievers and a Doberman. I grew up with a variety of household pets, from dogs, to cats, to reptiles and rodents. I adore all animals and will treat your pet with the same level of love, care, and attention that I would give my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I currently work full time - mostly 7am-4pm or 7am-6pm. I get one 1-hour long break at lunchtime, which I can use to go let a dog out for a walk or playtime! I am up early at 4am every day and can come before work and in the evenings for visits as well. I am very experienced with different training tools, leashes, harnesses, and muzzles. I am comfortable with leash safety and proper walking etiquette. I am trained in animal behavior, so I can keep your pet and other people’s pets safe.

About: Hello my name is Stephany Dos Santos and I have both baby sat and walked dogs for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of a wide range of dogs including Yorkshire, Gold Retriever, Mini Australian Shepherd, Poodle, Chihuahua , and etc. What you would love about me is that with my different experiences I could handle any dog because I treat them equally and also as if they were people. I am available any time of any day and to walk or sit your dog! I am a very funny and energetic individual which makes it easier for me to get along with dogs and run around with them. I would really love to be there when you need me most! Thank you for reading my profile and I hope to meet you! I currently work in a lab, and my schedule is pretty flexible than most other individuals. I am typically at work from between 2 to 4 hours a day. I have the flexibility to leave work whenever I need to and then if I needed to come back I could. Therefore if I am staying over And I see myself being at work for more than six hours a day, then I would just split my day and half and go home and walk or feed whichever animal I’m working with, then head back to work. I currently live in an apartment complex. It does allow animals. There is a large park by my complex, which, if there were a dog with me, I would take them there. In my apartment itself I have a lot of toys and it is a safe environment

About: I had the pleasure of owning two small dogs: Tally and Lulu. While they are no longer with us, I walked them, fed them, loved them, and miss them. Would love to share my care and love for dogs by helping other dog owners with theirs! I am currently free on all weekdays from 8:00am to 9:00pm and weekends from 8:00am to 6:00pm to walk dogs, pet-sit, play/cuddle, feed, or any other task asked of me. I plan to follow the specific instructions provided by the owners during our first meeting. I will only use a regular leash, not retractable, unless specifically told not to by the owner. I will only use owner-approved treats/food.

“Jenny did a great job taking Kai on walks while we were gone, she made sure he got some water out of the water hose when they were done. (It’s his favorite)”
