Dog Walkers in Porters, WI

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets since a young age. I recently became a dog mom myself and volunteer as often as I can through the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin! I’m a veteran who recently moved back to Wisconsin after leaving active duty. I’m in school (m-f 9-5) until the end of April, I can visit on between school , on my lunches as needed and am always home after school or work. I live an active lifestyle and I’m always ready to go for walks or a trip to the park! I have cared for pets from pups and kittens to seniors, administering medications as needed and always willing to keep your pet on a schedule they’re familiar with! I guarantee I will treat you fur baby as I would treat mine, the best I can! I live an active lifestyle and love going for walks around the neighborhood or taking trips to the park to burn off a pets energy, I am a giant homebody and prefer to stay in rather than go out! I follow all instructions given to me and if needed will always shoot a text or call to ensure your pets care is my number 1 priority.

“Excellent communication”

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped look after dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from high-energy pups to shy seniors who need a gentler touch. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly rely on me because I’m attentive, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with their pets. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved, whether we’re playing, going for walks, or just relaxing together. Your pet will get reliable care and plenty of affection while they’re with me. I have 1 year dog kennel experience that inspired me to become a vet assistant to hopefully start my own commercial business in the future! Thank you for considering me and contributing to my experience it is greatly appreciated and your animals will be treated like my own! I’m in school studying to become a veterinary assistant, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My class schedule is flexible, giving me lots of availability on weekends and most weekdays. Since animal care is already a big part of my life, I’m able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and reliability for your pets. I do online. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first when im caring for them in your home, follow your feeding, potty, and exercise routine so they feel secure and settled. If you don’t really have a route with pups and are a go with the flow person like I am I can provide, 8-10 potty’s breaks and lots of attention. For safety during walks in my neighborhood, there are no sidewalks so we walk against traffic so we can see oncoming cars with dogs on the right side of me farthest away from the road in grass. In the winter, I follow a cold-weather walking policy for safety: if it’s too cold for me in an t shirt it’s too cold for them! Usually requests winter weather gear like boots and coat but one can be provided(washed after every use with pet safe detergent). (Black puffer and no slip socks.) Night time walking- don’t worry about the days getting darker I’ve got it covered with my reflective gear, flashlight, collar light clips, and more. Thank you for understanding and helping keep your pet safe!

About: Safety is always my number one priority, and snuggles are a close second. While I don’t consider myself a professional dog trainer, I have a lot of hands-on experience training my own dogs and enjoy doing fun, light basic training with pups who are willing participants. Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel completely comfortable and happy in my care whether that means going for walks, getting extra snuggles, or engaging in a little positive, low-pressure training. I work part-time for my family business and have the flexibility to take my work with me anywhere. That means your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I truly love animals and make them a natural part of my daily life, it’s something that brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment I have three playful, friendly, and highly socialized dogs in my home. Crating is available if needed for your pet’s comfort and safety. My yard features a secure 6-foot privacy fence with plenty of space for your dog to run, play, and explore.

“Stacy is amazing! She takes such great care of my puppy, and he loves her! She is fabulous with communication and providing loving care to my fur baby!”

About: I have cared for every type of animal from childhood varying from dogs, cats, horses, and goats. I have cared for these animals from birth to end of life care while administering end of life medications. I’m currently available throughout the week and weekends while I’m in between jobs. I currently do not have any restrictions in my schedule for my availability. I do have a new baby at home and would like to be able to bring her to long stays if it is a good fitting for your family and pets. If not, I completely understand and have alternative arrangements for her. I have a (small) fenced yard and two small dogs (pugs) who can keep your dogs company. I can also crate if needed. The fence is not equipped for large dogs and is approximately four feet high.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends! I can offer crates when we leave or at night if you prefer! I have plenty of house for them to be in as well, also plenty of people to love on them! Your baby will never be alone!

“Kayla is the best! She has been coming to walk my dog & play with him for a long time & everything has always been great. Would recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pups!”

About: I have been helping to take care of family pets for the last handful of years. Taking walks and check ins for potty breaks and food! I work full time, 40 hours a week. Will be able to work before and after shifts, days off, weekends included! Holidays depend on availability. I ensure all environments are clean, safe, and comfortable for the pets. Food, water, clean litter available at all times when I am there with them

“Does a great job with my dog. Will be calling again for future needs. But my pup is ready to be on his own for the work day. Thank you very much for all your help and expertise!”

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.

“Brandi is so great with Milo! He loves going on walks with her and the treats she brings for him! She’s great about sending update pictures of their walk too!”

About: I'm currently in school for my RN. I have worked in Hospice for a few years now, and for awhile I provided doggy hospice for my last pup (Callie) that passed in January of 2022, she was with me almost 17 years. I now have a crazyyyy puppy. I live less than 5 minutes from my job so my pup gets a lot of my time. I do work around 2-4 days a week so I'm looking to fill my free time with more pups and I know my puppy is craving someone to play with. Each dog I care for is cared for in different ways, no care is the same. Some are very high energy and require time and patience. Others are more timid and don't need as much couching.

“Amanda is super kind and flexible. My dog Lucy absolutely adores walks/but can also be a bit difficult. Amanda has been accommodating and great for both of us. Thank you!”

About: I graduated in May of 2025 from the Madison Area Technical College Veterinary Technician Program, then passed the VTNE to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. In school we worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows, and lambs. I have had dogs since I was a child, and I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I worked on a farm taking care of horses for about two and a half years from 2020-2022. I've taken care of pets for friends/family for many years as well! I currently work at a vet hospital, though I am out on FMLA. Unfortunately, that means I can only take on pets less than 30 lbs at the moment. If you're looking for someone to take extra care of your pets, please reach out to see if we're a good fit! I'm currently working full time as a certified veterinary technician at a veterinary hospital. I work 40 hours a week with a varying schedule. Generally I work 8 am - 6 pm four days a week (my day off during the week changes each week). I work on Saturday about once per month. My rover clients will be scheduled around that availability. I currently live in an apartment with a cat and will not be able to watch clients' pets in my home. If I am watching pets in the client's home, I will take care of them the way I would take care of mine. I am respectful and conscientious of your personal space and privacy.

About: I have much experience with animals. I have had a couple pets growing up including dogs, cats, and even a guinea pig! I love all animals! I am currently a full time college student and work full time as well! I am looking for part time work after 3pm Monday-Friday and open availability on Saturday and Sunday! When I had my dog a little over 5 years ago- I had a great set up for him. I had a kennel, leash for walks, and endless amounts of toys and treats! I loved bringing my dog on car rides which included getting a pup cup or some ice cream. I also enjoyed bringing my dog on walk and hikes!

About: My passion is animals and I view this as an opportunity to help others while also doing what I love! I have experience in handling a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, small pets, and livestock! Friends and family have often asked me to take care of their pets. In addition, I currently work as a Veterinary Assistant! I currently work at a Veterinary Clinic, but I have a fairly flexible schedule! Drop in visits can be before or after work, as well as on my lunch breaks. My goal is make sure your pet is safe and happy. I can assure you that with good communication and care, your pet will be in great hands! I will make sure to create a bond with your pet, so they feel comfortable in my care.

About: I have taken care of many different pets throughout my life but have a special love for dogs and cats! Past employers, neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to care for their furry friends and I would love to care for yours as well! I am available any time of day to care for your furry friends, however, I typically tend to do most of my walks during normal working hours when clients are unable to walk their dogs or take them outside due to working away from the home. As a huge animal lover, you can ensure your pet will receive lots of love, affection, and treats from me! I love to take long walks and make an awesome fetch partner.

About: I've been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. Whether it was a fish, cat, dog or bird, they were all loved equally. I've taken care of my own pets, my extended family's pets when they leave them with me, as well as many, many clients' pets, who get a ton of loving and playtime. I started expanding my services with Rover back in 2021, but had to take a couple years off to focus on finishing school. As I've recently graduated from college, I now have an abundance of free time on my hands. Excluding the occasional doctor's appointment, I can be free all throughout the day with at least 1-2 days notice. I will have so much free time and energy to burn that taking care of your pets while be like a breeze. Being active is part of my routine so I'll have no issues keeping up with your fur baby.

“I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊”
