Dog Sitting in Shorewood

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay with their pets while they’re away. I especially enjoy longer stays because it gives dogs time to feel comfortable and settled, and I love being able to build that trust with them. One of my favorite parts is taking dogs on enriching walks, keeping them active, engaged, and happy, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to keep up with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship, especially during longer stays when consistency and routine are important. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking closely to their normal routine and giving them lots of attention and care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of clients’ homes, and committed to providing reliable communication and updates throughout each stay.

About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day, every other weekend. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.

About: I have gained first-hand experience with dogs & cats since I was born. My family and I have owned multiple breeds & personalities of dogs. I helped cat-sit & dog-sit for family & friends throughout high school & continue to do so. I love all animals no matter breed, size or personality. I have a flexible schedule and can work with majority of requests. Weekdays and weekends are fine. I have reliable transportation to accommodate your needs. I am looking to care for pets in client's home only. I am happy to follow whatever safety/security measures they have set up/establish with me.

About: Hi my name is Nora! I'm 21 years old and recent grad from University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. I have lots of pet sitting experience. I have house-sat while taking care of more than three pets, including cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior dogs and administering medicine and pills. At my own home I have 2 rescue dogs. In addition, I'm very comfortable taking care of puppies I have potty trained and crate trained dogs in the past. I am comfortable with both cats and dogs. I LOVE animals, they are so nurturing and smart and it is so fulfilling caring for animals. I currently work part-time so my schedule is very flexible and I am very adaptable. I am communicative and can always find the best solution. I currently work only about 20 hrs a week allowing for lots of time to walk and care for pets! I am a very gentle and caring pet sitter I strictly follow the client's instructions and ask questions when needed. I like to ensure that the pets I sit for are very comfortable with me.

“Hanna did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats while I was away on vacation! She was prompt, communicated very well, and sent lots of photos. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: Hi, I’m Brooklyn! I have a cat named Olive, who is my everything. I love all animals, and grew up with my families’ dogs and cats. I have experience parenting my own cats, especially when they are alittle sassy or not necessarily a fan of every human (seems totally fair to me). I also have experience with dogs, living with them my whole life, and I thoroughly enjoy a good walk myself. ☺️ I’m here to make YOU feel comfortable leaving your fur baby, to do what you need to do. I currently work a full time job from home, with flexible hours. I really enjoy going for walks in the mornings and afternoons, no earlier than 7am and no later than 7pm! Although I do not offer to bring pets in my home (due to my own spicy cat), I am happy to come to you and ensure your space is treated with respect!

“Ana always takes great care of the pups, and keeps me in the loop with details and photos. They love her too - as they give her all the snuggles, which they don’t give out easily 😅😅”

“We can't say enough wonderful things about Hope! We hired her to care for our cat Tiki while we were away on an extended vacation, and she exceeded every expectation. From the start, Hope took the time to truly get to know Tiki, who needed extra attention and engagement. She worked with us to build a personalized visit plan, and her ability to read Tiki's moods and adjust accordingly was remarkable — whether that meant an active harness training session or simply curling up together when Tiki needed comfort and cuddles. That kind of intuition and attentiveness is rare and made such a difference. Her communication throughout our trip was consistent and reliable, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. If you're looking for a cat sitter who will genuinely connect with your pet and give them exactly what they need, we would recommend Hope without hesitation, and plan to hire her again!”

About: I’ve had a dog since before I can even remember. My first dog was a lab. He was the best dog ever. I took him on walks and did all the chores for him when I was younger. I now have three dogs. One is a pitbull, one is a Shih Tzu, and one is a Yorkie. I love playing with them outside taking them on walks, especially love when my pitbull comes on camping trips with my family overall I am super good with dogs and I also extremely love cats too. I love all types of animals. I’m currently working part-time mornings so I’d be able to care for your pets either after work when I do work or on my days off in the morning for sure! I typically work 2 to 3 days a week If you’re at work and just need somebody to come and give your pup, some love or take them out to use the bathroom or get a little exercise. I’m 100% the person for you and your dog!!

“Jessica was able to come on short notice and even cleaned up my puppies potty accidents on the carpet while helping to potty train. Thanks for watching my still in training puppy and also for taking the time to correct him and clean up after him. I will defiantly be hiring again!”

About: I have been a private walker in the past and I am joining rover to be part of a larger platform. I grew up with dogs of all kinds and love meeting new furry friends! I currently have a full-time job and I am available for pet care from 6-7:30am and after 4:30pm. I have lots of flexibility and availability on the weekends as well! I currently live in an apartment with two cats. I am happy to come to the pets home and help with whatever care is needed.

“Abigail was terrific with my sweet cat Ladybug! I was incredibly grateful for her willingness to help me out over the Thanksgiving holiday. She sent me updates to put my mind at ease, including lots of pictures of Ladybug! I really appreciated Abigail going the extra mile and playing with Ladybug and cleaning her litterbox. It’s clear that she loves animals and it was clear that Ladybug loved having her! I look forward to booking again!”

About: PREMIUM SERVICE: Recurring Daily Walks & Park Excursions I am currently accepting new recurring weekday clients for consistent, daily walks. I specialize in providing reliable, high-energy exercise for your dogs, including pack walks for multiple pets. Whether you need a standard walk or a dedicated 1/2 hour to 2-hour off-leash trip to local fully-fenced parks like Roverwest or Estabrook, I ensure your pups get the focus they need while you are away. This includes pick-up, drop-off, active playtime, and fresh water breaks—message me for custom booking rates. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I am fully comfortable managing multiple dogs at once, maintaining your exact routines, and ensuring each dog feels safe, exercised, and cared for. My approach prioritizes calm, structured movement, positive reinforcement, and clear communication with pet parents. I am highly experienced with strict feeding schedules, administering medication, building leash manners, and providing constant companionship. With your permission, my friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Bob, can join our outings to provide extra socialization and companionship, which is especially helpful for dogs with anxiety. Your dog’s comfort and individualized care are my top priorities. Please bring your pup with a secure harness instead of a collar for all outings; harnesses are significantly safer, more comfortable, and help keep your furry friend protected at all times. My daily routine balances client care with my own dog's needs. I schedule every morning, midday, and evening walks, ensuring every dog receives attention, exercise, and socialization while my small, friendly pup joins safely when appropriate. I provide attentive, loving care for pets in my home including feeding, walks, playtime, and safe socialization. My small, friendly dog can join walks for companionship and comfort with owner's permission.

“Whitney was awesome with the two cats. The two cats were very comfortable with her. Nick and Sam can be challenging and Whitney kept us informed with clear communication. She was very caring towards the cats. I will definitely ask her to care for Nick and Sam again!”

About: Hi there! I am a former pet groomer with lifelong experience loving animals of all kinds! I have worked with senior animals, puppies, cats, and combative animals with professionalism and levity for 5+ years. I am super excited to get to know you and your animals. I am currently working summer camp jobs, and therefore have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am very excited to get to spend plenty of time with animals while I navigate a new move to the area! My previous job as a pet grooming assistant as well as babysitting animals in the past has given me a lot of experience in keeping animals safe and comfortable. I work extremely hard to understand animal behavior and body language in order to respect animals boundaries. I also prioritize safety when caring for other people’s animals because that is someone’s baby! It is important to me to do a job well, and that includes maintaining safety and care for all animals.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was little and have loved walking dogs since 7th grade and even more now that I’m in college and can’t see my own pups. I’m willing to be flexible, on time for your furry friend and take care of them like it’s my own. I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments and am able to tend to your dogs needs on each visit/walk I work 25 hours part time while taking online courses so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your dog! Monday and Wednesday afternoons and Thursday and Sunday mornings are available 100% I will take care of each dog like they’re my own always making sure they have all their bases covered.
