“I am so happy we found Jennifer to walk our dog. She's a very caring and responsible person. She asked great questions when we met for introductions. She was on time and let me know of schedule changes and was flexible in rescheduling. Our dog loves her. I highly recommend Jennifer to care for your pets.”

“Laura is so sweet. It usually takes quite a bit for my dog to warm up to someone. However, she took right to Laura. Laura sent pictures, came prepared and was punctual. My fur baby has a new friend. Thank you Laura!”

About: I’ve been helping care for my families dogs since I was little, doing things such as cleaning up after their messes, giving them their meds, taking them on walks, and simply just spending time with them and giving them the interaction they need. I’m currently looking for a part time job aside from Rover, so I’ll have as much time as needed to come help care for your pets! Nearly anytime of the day, I can come over and walk your pets, feed them, clean up their areas, or just simply spend some time with them. I’m able to come over nearly anytime and watch your pets, feed them, clean them, or whatever you need! I can give them meds, crate them, walk them, etc.

“Samantha was a godsend for us -- she was a reliable, friendly, and caring dog walker who our gregarious pup, Watson, basically instantly fell in love with. We would still have her walk Watson if she weren't moving! She is fantastic.”

“Maggie is fantastic! She is kind, compassionate and extremely reliable. She patiently listened to our instructions regarding our pup and was more than happy to follow everything we requested. It is clear she has a love for animals and is very trustworthy and competent. Our pup was completely comfortable with her and getting belly rubs within the first few minutes. Our furry friend was so excited to see her when she returned for another walk! I can't say enough good things!”

“Emily was incredible for us on short notice!”

About: I have had all sorts of pets throughout my life and have a deep love for all animals. Unfortunately my dog cannot go for long walks, so I would love to take your dog out for a stroll! I'm able to travel anywhere in the Madison area and can drop by for walks/feeding after 5 and can do overnight stays any day of the week. I have had multiple anxious dogs in my life and I know being with a new person could also cause some anxiety. I will make things as smooth as possible and adjust for your individual pet's needs.

About: I grew up on a farm, which is pretty much where my animal obsession began! I was surrounded by cows, pigs, horses, chickens, cats, dogs — basically if it had fur, feathers, or hooves, I probably helped take care of it. Growing up around so many different animals taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how every animal has their own unique personality. Ever since then, animals have just naturally been a huge part of my life! I’m a full-time nurse with a flexible schedule, since I only work 3–4 days a week. That means I have plenty of time, energy, and attention to dedicate to your furry friends! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I accommodate to every pets needs! I have crates, I do structured playtime and go on long walks to exert energy. I also have a friendly dogs who would love to keep your pet company.

“Kara helped out on a last minute request. She was reliable and communicative throughout the process. Will definitely reach out again in the future!”

“Elizabeth is a very professional and caring dog walker. My dog looked forward to her visits. She follow directions perfectly and asked pertinent questions. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and caring for them. I have experience with dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and spending time playing and keeping them comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With my background as a former dog groomer and long-term experience in the pet industry, I’m very comfortable caring for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, calm, and cared for. I care for pets by following their normal routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort, and I’m experienced in handling different temperaments from my time working in boarding facilities and pet care. My goal is to make pets feel safe and cared for as if they were my own.

About: I will absolutely spoil and love your pets like they are my own! I am a recent graduate from UW-Madison in Wildlife Ecology where I gained animal experience. I also graduated from Madison College with an Associate Degree for Veterinary Technician. I worked in the veterinary field for over a year before attending UW-Madison. I take pride in my ability to care for animals and the love I have for them. My schedule is currently completely open to take care of and spoil all the pets I can. I have a Chocolate Labrador named Jake that would need to come with me when house sitting. He is good with dogs and cats. I might not have a fenced yard, but there is so much space near my apartment for dogs to play and run. There is also a trail close by that I have taken my dog on, which she loves. I have a truck that can transport them. If I am caring for pets in the client's home I have no issue with taking them out to play or on walks. I absolutely love being around pets.

“Raphael has a great run with Kelly. Got to see lots of pictures of his adventures. Kelly feed Raffi lunch for me as well this time. Followed all directions to a t! Highly recommended!!!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life. I absolutely love them and took care of our family pets as a child. I have a very large dog of my own and am extremely confident in my ability to control the largest of dogs. So size is no problem for me! I also have experience taking care of other animals as well, so don't hesitate to ask! I would be glad to help you with any and all your pets. I have taken some dog training classes and am still seeking more knowledge, so rest assured that I am receiving all the tools I need to be the best care provider for your pet. I am currently between jobs and have lots of time to spend on pet care. My Saturday mornings and early afternoons can be a little taken up, but I can work around that. I personally have a fenced in yard for my dogs. They get three meals a day and outside access whenever they please. Someone is always home with them. The cats are indoor only and free feed. I take my dogs for walks regularly and we like to play often throughout the day.
