About: Hi there! My name is Liz! I am a nurse part time and a stay at home mom with my 1 year old son. I am hoping to find a loving family that I can help support with dog walking or animal sitting a few times per week. ☺️ I live on the East Side of MKE and love to walk, run and bike ride. I also love sports so staying active is important to me. I will generally have my son with me for walks and visits so hope there is a family that has kid-friendly pets! He loves animals! I previously had two dogs (a husky named River and a golden retriever named Bailey) with 2 cats (Oreo and Rudy) growing up. I roomed with a black lab for many years named Jackson as well. I have dog sat/walked and cat sat for many friends and family. I love spending time with animals and would love to have some pet/animal energy in my life again 👏 Looking forward to connecting with you! I am free most Thursdays and Fridays as I am home with my son. I can generally make any time work on Thursdays and Fridays. I work during the day on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays so my evenings are available these days. My weekends are generally open as well!

About: As a lifelong animal lover, my experience with pets spans over a number of years. From raising my own cats and growing up taking care of dogs. To caring for friends' and neighbors' rabbits, birds, and reptiles, I've developed a deep understanding of different animal personalities and needs. I believe in treating every pet with the same love, patience, and respect I'd want for my own, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away. I currently work full-time from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Weekdays / weekends, I can make myself available for whatever you need ! I have two cats that we have adopted, both cats are male and are around two years old. They love other visitors and love playtime. They also are open to smaller dogs around can be a little bit more intimidating by larger dogs..
About: I have taken care of my own small-sized dog for 6 years and initially adopted two big dogs that I loved and took care of! I was also a volunteer at the humane society where I was taught and trained different techniques to accommodate to different types of dogs to ensure comforability. I am currently working a part-time job so whenever I have free time, I want to spend it on something active that fits into my schedule. I adapt well to many personalities of dogs so it’s easy to understand their behavior. Training or crating is no big deal if need be!

About: Dogs are my kind of people, loyal, silly, soulful, and always ready for a good walk or cuddle. I bring genuine enthusiasm to every visit, whether it’s tossing a tennis ball for the fifth time or patiently encouraging a shy pup to come out of their shell. Because I truly love dogs, I pay close attention to their routines, moods, and energy levels. Whether it’s a rambunctious retriever or a slow-strolling senior, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest and healthiest. Your dog isn’t just a client they become part of my daily joy. Pet care blends seamlessly into my daily rhythm, acting as gentle checkpoints that anchor my routine. Feeding, cleaning, and playtime create consistency, while weekly tasks like grooming or toy rotation keep things fresh. These moments build a quiet connection between me and my pet and often serve as welcome pauses in a busy day. For happy, healthy pets at home, stick to consistent routines, clean litter boxes and feeding schedules for cats, daily walks and playtime for dogs. Offer cozy spaces, rotate toys, and check their health regularly. A bit of structure and love goes a long way for any furry friend.

Washington Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Krystal continues to do an excellent job walking our dog, Taters. Taters is always excited to see Krystal coming, and Krystal has been flexible and accommodating when our schedules changed and we needed to reschedule walks. She’s easy to work with and is clearly great with dogs!
Selena is so amazing! She is super reliable and takes such good care of my puppy. She treats him like her own and he loves her so much. She always send me pictures while they’re out walking and I love to get updates like that. It brings me a lot of peace of mind to know he’s in such good hands when he’s with her.
Alexandra is the best!! She’s been coming to walk and play with my two pups weekly for a few months now. Besides my babies having a great time with her, she has great communication with me, and she really enjoys teaching them new things. She helped give medication and walking my girl pup with a sling after she had a TPLO knee surgery. I am very thankful for Alexandra.
Genevieve was absolutely amazing with my dog (Malibu)! Malibu was shaking & scared from a stranger, but by the second visit Genevieve gained her trust and was able to take her outside. Genevieve was so sweet and patient with Malibu. She also communicated her progress each day with us to let us know how it went.
Bella did great with my high energy dog! She was careful to learn my dog's routine and special instructions, and gave me detailed updates after every walk. It's clear that Bella adores dogs and is very experienced, which helped to ease my dog parent anxiety. I'll gladly book with Bella again.
