Dog Walking Rodell

“Emma is so considerate and has a bright, positive attitude. She seems to love Levi, is very thoughtful in her writings of their walks, and she was accommodating when our schedule changed. We're looking forward to her walking Levi long term. She's really an animal lover.”

About: Hi! My name is Grace, and I had the honor of being a proud pet owner for nearly 20 years. I had the opportunity to care for my dog, Marley, for 13 beautiful years, and my cat, Tigger, for almost 20! Growing up with pets taught me respect, responsibility, and safety around animals from a young age, and has allowed me to take part in many other pet caring opportunities since then! I give my time to all pets in my care, young or old, and it is always a fun time, every time! I have loved animals my entire life, and I will treat your pet as my own, along with giving them the best experience I would want my own pet to be given! I am currently available on select weekends, and can also fit time in during the week in the evenings, whether it be a walk, feeding, or even bath-rooming. I experience housesitting for others between 2-14 days at a time. I am a teacher during the day and a dance coach in the evenings, and due to this schedule, I am unavailable for drop-in’s between 7am-5:30pm. I am very patient when it comes to taking care of pets, and am attentive to their individual needs. I give appropriate reinforcement, along with discipline when needed. I am unable to care for pets in my own home at this time, but am more than willing to care in your own home, if needed!

About: I have owned dogs and cats since I was a child. I started volunteering at my local animal shelter when I was 14 and I also was employed there for 8 years. I own 3 cats currently and take care of indoor and outdoor dogs for family and friends. I work an 8-430 m-f job so any dog sitting will be around this schedule. Potty breaks during the work week will be approximately 8 hours apart because of this but can provide more during the weekdays. Drop in visits and walks can be any time on the weekends but I'm the evenings during the week! I have a yard but it is not fenced in. I do have cats that can keep yours company as long as they are cat friendly!

“Aaralyn does a fantastic job walking my two dogs! They pull me on the leash but she handles them like a pro. She also leaves me feedback after every walk.”

About: I’ve taken care of a wide range of pets. From cats, dogs, birds, rodents and farm animals. I am also able to take care of animals with higher needs. I’ve had elderly pets who need medication and animals that I have found with injuries that I took care of. I am available all week and I occasionally visit my parents on the weekend. Other than that I do not leave town often, if I do ever have a trip planned I would update my schedule. I know how important routines are so sticking to what is requested is essential. Animals that need to be kept separate is also an important thing to know.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and honestly can’t remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by pets. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I regularly dog sit for friends and family, and I genuinely love it. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I show up with patience, energy, and a lot of love. I take pet care seriously, but I also truly enjoy it. Being around animals is my happy place. I probably like them more than humans, but I’ll let your pet be the judge of that. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m typically home and have a flexible schedule. I’m usually out for a couple hours most days, but otherwise I’m around and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. On weekends I’m also fairly flexible and either at home or doing low-key activities, so I can adjust easily to the needs of each pet. I enjoy making pet care a consistent part of my routine and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care based on each pet’s needs and comfort level. In my home, I keep things very relaxed with lots of supervision, cuddle time, potty breaks, playtime, and regular outdoor walks on a leash. I also make sure pets are fed on schedule and always have fresh water. In a client’s home, I prefer to focus on walks and potty breaks or quick check-ins depending on what’s needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking closely to their normal routine.

“Tori was able to come on super short notice. She was very friendly and Winchester loved her. She handled him no problem. I’m so happy with Tori, would definitely recommend. 🐾”

About: I’ve had pets (dogs and cats) for my whole life. I often took care of neighbors animals when they would go out of town and always enjoyed it! Can’t wait to walk some dogs and cuddle some cats I am working part time and only work a few hours a week so I will have plenty of time to walk dogs or take care of animals! I am totally willing to do whatever needed for your animals! I am great at following directions and loving animals like they are my own!

About: I currently have 2 dogs and 2 long haired cats. Being a registered nurse I have a lot of experience giving medications to humans, but also animals. I have some grooming experience given my cats need for it. I have extensive reactivity training in dogs as one of ours has struggled since she was a puppy. I would love to make your fur-baby feel loved and cared for while you have the peace of mind while on vacation or work. I am currently a registered nurse, so my schedule is very open and I can shift things around as needed to help out! I do not work a straight routine, so have many open spaces. I would gladly watch your animals in your home so they continue to have the comfort of their natural area and no added stress of being somewhere they do not know. I will gladly follow whatever rules or schedule you set up!

About: We have had cats and dogs in our family my entire life. I was born and raised caring for our animals as family members. We have always had multiple cats and dogs, as well as assorted other critters. A few years ago, I lived in Madison working at a Doggy Daycare. There we had lots of training in dog body language and behaviors. I spent each day looking after a pack of at least 20 dogs. That job helped me gain lots of experience working with all kinds of different dogs, behaviors and personalities! The doggy daycare also implemented behavioral training. Each day we would work with the dogs and puppies to make sure we were working on positive behaviors with positive reinforcements! I am currently available to help be there for your furbabies and their needs! I would love to be the one to help them feel comfortable while you're away! I live in a spacious, pet friendly duplex. The current tenants include: my husband and myself, our two cats, Mister and Nilla, and my leopard gecko, Echo! I have access to plenty of areas to run and play, as well as a place to get plenty of cuddles! The care I give your pets will match what they need. I know that your fur babies are special and important to you and I intend to treat them as if they were my own. My place or yours, your furry friend will feel at home!

About: They say to do what you love and make a career out of it. I’m just grateful my career gets to be with dogs. I currently work at a doggy daycare/boarding facility in the area, so I am certified with dog and cat behaviors and have seen the ups and downs of our fur babies, and I am still standing here happy to tell you all about their stay/session. I have also grown up with working farm dogs and have gone on to own a Great Pyrenees who isn’t quite a working dog but sure does “work” like one. Thank you for reading through my short history and I am super excited to update this with my accomplishments to come! Pet care for me starts at dawn lol My pups come for cuddles and a potty break first sight of my eyes opening. Most of the time this does align with my schedule in the 6 am timeframe. Our family does always thankfully have one person home at all times, so while kennels are still utilized in our home for various situations, your pups can expect to stay in a home environment while here :) While I personally do not have a yard, my family does own large pasture fields and hills that we will typically walk daily. These colder seasons do affect how often we go out due to the snow and unplowed hills. However in that safe weather we make it a main priority to keep active with our pups to maintain a healthy and long life for them. Safety is priority number one. Thankfully my family is pretty much set up for success here. We are knowledgeable for food, behavior, and play safety with dogs and cats. Signs and symptoms of common issues with dogs and cats, based off personal experiences, and possible fears of what ifs, urinary cat blockages and bloat, or bloody stools. And while I understand dog body language and know how to avoid those tense situations dogs can create, I am incredibly quick to say when we are going to the emergency vet, gosh forbid.

About: I have worked with dogs for 12 years. I have worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility. I am an inspiring dog trainer as well! I am available to take care of your pets most days. I have therapy Monday and Wednesday that takes about an hour. I am very flexible so I can work around that. I have a kid and dog friendly service dog. I have 3 crates, plus two tie outs and an unfenced yard. I am always out when my dog goes outside

“Kara is a wonderful dog walker! My girls love seeing her and the walks she's takes them on.”

About: I grew up around dogs of all sizes in my hometown of Menomonee Falls, and caring for them has always been something I love! My siblings have dogs, including Labs, Poodles, and mixed breeds, and I enjoy spending time with all of them. I also have experience dog-sitting for friends and family while they were away on weekend getaways or vacations lasting several weeks. Most of the dogs I’ve cared for have been well-trained adults, but I’m also comfortable caring for puppies and helping meet their needs. I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable dog lover who would love to give your furry friend plenty of attention and care! I’d love to help with walks during the day while you’re at work! I’m a college student, so I usually have a flexible schedule and can often fit in pet walks during lunch breaks, evenings, or mornings when my classes allow. I also have a pretty open schedule on the weekends! I’m currently training for a marathon, but outside of my runs, I’d love to spend my extra time caring for pets and making sure they get plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I’d be happy to help whenever my schedule works for you and your pets! Since I live in university housing, I’m unable to provide boarding, but I’d love to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, and caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home! I’ve been a Resident Assistant for four years, which has helped me develop strong responsibility, reliability, and trustworthiness. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I live a healthy, active lifestyle through running and weightlifting, and I’m currently training for a marathon! Staying active helps me keep up with energetic pets and makes going on walks an activity I genuinely enjoy. I’ll always keep a close eye on your pet, follow your instructions and household guidelines, and make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind so you can enjoy your well-deserved time away, knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for!
