“Ashley was a great last minute walker and very patient with all my novice Rover questions. She provided lots of pictures during the 30min walk and had no time accessing my quirky building with ease.”

“Jimmy is amazing with Alton. He has a clear love for dogs and passion for doing what is needed to care for them. I’m always impressed at seeing the maps of the nice walks they take. Which I’m sure Alton very much appreciates when he’s pouty that I’m away. Jimmy is also very easy to communicate with and always responsive. 10/10 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!!”

“Shannon was awesome! Really lovely with Norman, brought water along, did a great job managing his leash pulling, and was really smart about resting him in the shade. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and other various animals (bunny, birds, guinea pig, fish, chickens) my whole life. I am attentive to pet needs and love to cuddle and go to dog parks! I work part time so my availability is flexible. I will be able to take pups for walks during the day. I may be able to board depending on the type/age/size of dog. I don’t have a yard but will ensure your pet is leashed prior to going outside. Human foods are stored properly so no snacking goes on.
“Melinda has been such a wonderful help and is so incredibly good with our pup! She’s dependable, kind and responsible - we are moving, but will miss her greatly!”

About: I have experience with every kind of dog! Puppies, senior dogs, I am also used to administering medication to dogs. I have been working as a k9 coach for the past year! I am super patient, kind, and understanding I have a super flexible schedule! I am very open to anything last minute. I can do multiple walks a day as well! I am also more than happy to just stay the whole day if house sitting! I would say my animals are so spoiled! I am very gentle. I am someone who believes that yelling at an animal won’t do anything. So I would say I have a very gentle but effective approach.
“Brittany has been walking our puppy twice a week for several weeks now and it’s been going swimmingly. Communication has been really good and it’s been such a weight off our shoulders to know that Brittany will be giving our dog a fun break in the middle of the day when we can’t be home. She sends photos and little updates to let us know how their walks went and those are really fun to see. Highly recommend Brittany!”

“Laura has been absolutely phenomenal with the weekly recurring dog walks. She gained the trust of our skeptical Bernese mountain dog immediately, and of course our golden loves her. Highly recommend!”
“Our Great Dane loves Ben. He has had great communication with us during all of his walks and has made sure that Bruno has “done his business” in the mornings. He is our favorite walker”

About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, my apartment is very dog-friendly, with many residents having pets and there are plenty of amenities available, whether walking around the neighborhood on leash or playing in the apartment’s fenced in dog run, that will give your pet what it needs. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”

“Once again Kali is above and beyond! I can always tell when I get home and Bean is so calm and relaxed from a great walk/time spent with Kali. Such great love and care for my boy and I trust that he is in such good hands. Thank you again!!”

Schenk-Atwood-Starkweather-Yahar dog parents share their Rover experiences
Laura came and met us before starting walks with my dog, Ruby. She was great with Ruby and very attentive to her. The first time Laura came to walk Ruby, Ruby was shy and uncertain. Laura was patient and slowly allowed my pup to warm up to her so they could play in the yard. I highly recommend Laura, she clearly loves animals and does a great job recognizing what they need and goes at their pace.

Kat is absolutely wonderful with my dog. My dog is elderly and in the last year had both of her "ACLs" replaced. Kat was happy to work with us on gradually increasing the length of walks, avoid pulling or pressure, and go at my dog's pace. I would recommend Kat to anyone looking for a dog walker or pet sitter.
We LOVE Nicole. She has a flexible schedule so when we have needed her in a pinch she is always available to help out. Our pup loves going on long walks and is always so excited to see her. She responds timely to requests and has great communication for how the walk went!
