Dog Walkers in Stoughton, WI

“Laura was fantastic. We did a meet and greet the day before she started, and Hambone took to her immediately. Laura was prompt and responsive. She walked our dog while she stayed at my elderly parents house, and they were thrilled to have her. She was friendly and warm. I would not hesitate to book walks with her in the future.”

About: My husband and I have both taken care of cats and dogs for most of our lives and grew up with a household of pets. We regularly watch both large and small dogs for extended family when they travel out of town. We would be happy to care for your dogs or cats and give them the same love and attention we give our own pets. Our family currently has a 6-year-old chihuahua mix (who hasn’t met a person or pup she doesn’t like). We have a fenced yard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play. We’d love to help out with your pets! You can be sure they’ll get plenty of attention! I work from home, so I am available to stop over for dog walking during the day or just to check on and play with your dog or cat when you’re away. We are also available for dog boarding or daytime care at our house. I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood and one small dog that would be happy to keep your dog company. If your dog is accustomed to crating at night, I’m familiar with crate training as our dogs were trained in this way.

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.

“Brandon is great with our dog. He is very responsible and I love the reports after their walks”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, starting with in-home dog sitting as a teenager and continuing ever since. I have extensive experience with larger breeds, including German Shepherds and other high-energy dogs, and I’m very comfortable handling strong, active personalities. I’m also a Malinois owner, so I understand the level of structure, exercise, and attention that working breeds need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just consistent, reliable care, I’m someone you can trust to treat them like my own. In addition to dogs, I’ve also provided in-home care for cats and am comfortable with a variety of temperaments and needs. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am a part-tome firefighter/paramedic and have a fairly flexible schedule. I typically end up having a lot of days free especially this summer. Reach out with your needs and we can see what we can work out! I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for your pets. As a firefighter/paramedic, I’m trained to stay calm, aware, and handle unexpected situations quickly and responsibly. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to behavior changes and make sure your pet is always secure on walks and in the home. I’m experienced with large and high-energy dogs, so I’m confident handling strong or reactive dogs safely. Clear communication is important to me, and I’ll keep you updated so you always feel comfortable and informed while you’re away.

“Trinity has been wonderful with our kitty boy! She has consistently been walking him twice a week and she responds very quickly! Our pets love her!”

“Amazing again! Kelly came and took our boy on a 30 min walk and stayed and played in the back yard with him for another 30 mins. She sent me many pictures and sent me fun text messages, letting me know what they were up to.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently have two of my own...Tripp and Lilly! Dogs are such an important part of my life, and I’ll care for your pup like they’re one of my own. I always go above and beyond to make sure dogs feel safe, loved, exercised, and happy while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or extra attention, I’m committed to providing the best care possible. I also have a reliable vehicle and can transport dogs to local dog parks if they need more exercise than a walk can provide or if you don’t have a yard available. I work full-time in Madison Monday through Friday during standard business hours, so I may not be the best fit for services that require potty breaks or walks during those times. However, I do occasionally have flexibility in my schedule and may be able to accommodate certain requests, so please don't hesitate to ask if I can make it work. My evenings and weekends are typically very flexible and available. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I’d love to chat and see if I’d be a good fit for your pup! :)

About: My wife and I love animals. I grew up with cats and dogs all the time. Now that we finally have a big back yard and a nice home to enjoy, we want to share it with you and your pets! We watch our family's and friend's pets and really enjoy it! I work from home as a salesman. I have time while I'm on the phone and when I'm not on the computer. Plenty of time for potty breaks and petting and attention! When a pet needs to go out, i have two leash systems based on how long we're outside. With no fence they'll always be on a leash out of doors. While inside we've got mostly hardwood floors so accidents aren't too big of a deal if they happen. And a comfy pet friendly sofa and bed!

About: My first job was as a kennel attendant at a local vet clinic where I learned a lot about animal care. I have also worked at a boarding facility. Since working there, I have started my own pet sitting service called “Bodens Buddies”. I started this service for a number of reasons; one, to give my dog Boden unique social opportunities, and two, because I believe pets thrive in a home setting even if it’s not their home. I am currently working part time as I continue my college studies, so I have plenty of time to commit to your pet(s)! My schedule is flexible! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog of my own. I also have two cats who can be spaced in another area if needed.

About: I am able to administer any medications that are needed and I have experience with both senior animals and extremely young animals! I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am available anytime just message me! I don’t have much going on other than taking care of all my animals so I have plenty of time throughout the week. Safety and trust are my number one priorities so if their are specific things you need or want to be done to ensure your animals safety please don’t hesitate to let me know!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals my whole life, including my own, friends, and family’s pets. Through high school and college I volunteered at a rescue that specialized in cats. Most recently I worked at a county animal shelter as an animal caretaker. Through the shelter I have had training in handling and care of almost every pet imaginable, as well as extra training in dog behavior. I also have training in foster of special needs / challenging behavior dogs, as well as neonate kitten care. I have experience giving many types of medications as well as iv fluids. I am currently solely focusing on providing pet care, so it is very easy for me to adjust my schedule to accommodate whatever needs your pet may have. I will care for your babies in whichever way you want. In my home, my dog kids are allowed inside or outside whenever they want and are not kenneled. But I will do my best to be consistent with whatever schedule they are used to. I also enjoy jogging if your pup would prefer a faster paced walk.

“Emily was incredible for us on short notice!”

“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.”

“Avery was terrific! She was so patient and gentle with my two older pups. Her communication was outstanding and my dogs loved her. Thank you!!”

About: I have 18 years of dog care ranging from injured elderly good boys and girls to young and high maintenance high energy herding dogs. I love long walks or short, and I always have time for a little fetch for the ones that need the extra exercise and stimulation. I work full time, but mostly remote. I'm available for most lunch-time, after or before work, and weekend walks. I'm available on weekends to help with potty breaks and a little extra love and attention. I emphasize exercise as a daily necessity for dogs. It's a great source of engagement, as well as helping more nervous ones get some of that anxiety out of their system. My own high energy girl needs a daily 2 mile walk and fetch to keep her happy, so I'm OK going that extra block with yours.

About: I grew up around large breeds and have had my own German Shepherd for the last 7 years! I am eager to work with your pup 🐶 I am currently a freelance hair stylist for weddings and am usually gone for a few hours on Friday’s or Saturday’s- my dog needs to be cared for regularly as well so I will be available to care for yours as well! I am experienced with crate training if needed, I am happy to follow your personal pets house rules and can adapt to whatever it is that will make you most comfortable!

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and currently care for three of my own, giving me a wealth of hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m skilled in providing personalized care, whether it’s for energetic puppies needing training and structure or senior dogs requiring extra patience and gentle attention. My lifelong dedication to dogs means I understand their unique needs and behaviors, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. Over winter I'm am extremely free so I would be more then willing to spend lots of time with your pets. I am open to helping out at anytime so long as we communicate ahead of time! I have 3 dogs at home who I take on walks daily in new and fun location. I love to explore the world with my dogs. I am willing to meet your pets needs and help out in any way that is necessary.
