About: I’ve only worked with my own dog who is 13 years old, but I would love to get more experience with other dogs and cats. I am sure I can give the best care possible to all dogs and cats!!! Since the age of 6 I have taken care of my current dog, giving her lots of play time, baths, and cuddles. I’m sure I can give your pet the same great care! My schedule at my other job always depends on the week because I have a as needed type of job and I pick up when I can. So my schedule always varies, but I will set aside days of the week to do dog sitting or walking jobs! I have a big yard for my dog and your fur babies to play in!! My neighborhood is very safe also. I will make sure your dog or cat is always safe and cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of my family pets my entire life and have been trusted with feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with dogs and cats for neighbors, family members, and friends while away! I currently am a mama to a pup and a kitty who I love more than anything (don’t tell my fiancé 🤭) I’d love to be able to help in a pinch to take care of your bestie and care for them as if they were part of my own pack. I work from home on Thursdays & Fridays with an extremely flexible schedule! Weekends, I am typically available with enough notice. Visits for me can last any where between 10min check ins to 1hour adventures. At home, we have a lead for our dog to roam the yard. I am comfortable with letting pups out in fenced yards, walking on leashes, and crating if that is something you need. I’m totally willing to assist with meal times and treats with instructions provided. I totally understand that each pet has specific needs and I’ll go the distance to keep them happy.
About: From a young age i’ve always loved animals, having grown up with 4+ animals in the house at all times i learned very quickly my love for animals. i have worked at 2 vets in the past and 2 doggy daycares, those jobs showed me how much i really wanted to care for animals, and while im out of work id still like to give my time to helping people out and making dogs happy with walks and play time and company, i have cared for dogs weighing from under 10 pounds all the way to almost 200 pounds, i do have some experience with administering medication orally and with a needle if needed. i cared for my elderly cat in the past and my elderly dog now, ive given insulin shots and given pills, i am more than comfortable handling that, by putting the pill in a small treat nine times out of ten they don’t even notice it’s in there! i know what the feeling is like to have to leave your animals behind when you go on vacation or wherever, but i would love to make them feel happy and loved while your gone! i care for all animals the way i would care for my own pets. my schedule is open now so even if you have a puppy who needs extra potty breaks i’m available to come up to every 2-3 hours if needed. i’m really flexible and can work with everyone at the moment i am not working so this actually works out very well with me im relatively open for pet care:) i just have a few scattered doctors appointments throughout the week in my clients home I will make sure to follow any rules and or guidelines that are expected of the animals and myself obviously as I am in someone else’s home..
“Kandice is a wonderfully lovely person who was really kind and great meeting my pups. We had a meet and greet and took the pups for a walk together to get to know one another. Would definitely recommend for another walk!”

Don't listen to Joanne. Maleri is amazing, she has been so incredibly helpful and wonderful taking care of Dante. Whether it's a last-minute walk request or a modification due to weather, Maleri does everything in her power to help ensure Dante is taken care of! Thank you, Maleri!!!
Samantha did a great job caring for our puppy during the day! She stopped by twice for walks, had clear communication throughout the entire process, and sent photo updates which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious she genuinely cared about our puppy and made sure she was well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter/walker!
I injured my back and needed someone to walk my dogs for a few days until I was cleared to do so. Kandice was great and managed to walk both of my dogs (one of which is a very bouncy and freakishly strong for his size puppy) together with no issues. I'm very grateful for her help and will reach out to Kandice again if I need help in the future.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Waukesha. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Waukesha.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waukesha. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
