About: I've had multiple dogs over the last 30 years. Mainly Bull Mastiffs, Border Collie Mix, and multiple Pitties. We lately have been adopting older dogs to give them the best end of life possible. For friends I've watched many smaller to larger dogs, comfortable with all. I have experience with all sorts of meds and care, although I prefer to stay away from anything with needles when possible. We've been to the vet more times than I can count, and have gotten good at understanding/reading dog behavior and signs of distress. I have experience with all soft of personalities...shy or alpha, lazy or rambunctious, etc. I like to understand them and work with them where they are at so they enjoy themselves and are happy. I'm a pretty calm presence and in general dogs trust me right away. My wife will joke that I am a dog whisperer as dogs tend to follow my lead easily, but I think it is simply being confident and projecting that you are there to take care of them. I have a very flexible work schedule and am home most of the time. I only have 1 dog right now (Oscar, 82 lb Pitty who loves everything and everyone...he walks around with soft toys like they are his dolls), but will likely be back to 2 in the near future. I walk my pup(s) pretty much every day. We live near Hart Park and the Oak Leaf Trail so getting out to walk along the river/parks is very easy. New to doing this formally rather than just for friends. Normally watch friends dogs at their place. If we take care of your pup in our home, we will always have 1+ pups that will be other-dog friendly. My wife and I have a small Tosa home but fully fenced-in yard to be able to let them out at any time day or night without worry. We have a small main floor but it has 3-4 dog beds and multiple toys (prefer dogs who are ok with soft toys, as our pup(s) don't rip those up. Will likely prefer caring for your pup in your home, it simply mitigates the crowding in the house and any potential conflicts. If I look after any cats, those would be at your house. We no longer have cats and aren't prepped for that in any way.

“Olivia is reliable, honest, caring and is a wonderful friend to our dog Stella! She has a great attitude and excellent communication skills. We highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals of family and friends and always insured to give them so much love during those even small, short visits! I grew up with dogs, and when I was able to have a pet of my own, I got a very large orange cat! I’m comfortable around all dogs and I am willing and wanting to adapt to the needs of your furry friends. My time will be towards making your pet as comfortable and is happy as can be whether that is going on walks or even going to the park. I was previously available throughout June but since beginning a new job, I will be available on the weekends/weekday mornings/weekday evenings for drop-ins and walks! Just let me know what you need! When in your home, I would love to take your furry friend on a walk, to the park, or anything else that you do that makes your pet comfortable and happy!

About: I've been around dogs all my life and love giving them plenty of play time and attention. I also just recently gained experience with puppies. They are my favorites 🙂‍↕️ Availability: Wednesday: 8am to 10:30am/ 5pm to 10pm Thursday: 5pm to 10pm Open availability on Friday, Saturday and Sunday If you have any questions or requests outside of my schedule, I will do my best to work with you. I am a student in college currently. I typically do drop ins, I feed according to how the owner wants their pet fed, I play with them as much as possible and give plenty of love and attention

“We have hired Andrew as a daily walker for our dog while we are at work. He does an excellent job, communicates well, and always arrives on time.”

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, I now live in a home with a nice backyard. 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.

“Elyzabeth was very thorough and communicative. She gave my pup a nice long walk and making sure she got her treat when going back in the crate! Thank you! Would definitely book again.”

“Chelsea too very good care of my dog - hanging out when he preferred a cuddle over a walk or spending time outside when that was his preference. All the while, she kept me up to date with messages and photos.”

“Jennifer was great with my anxious dog. Very kind and understanding! I appreciated her willingness to do a meet and greet before the first walk!”

About: I’ve taken care of other people’s dogs & cats for the last seven years- jobs have included reoccurring/scheduled drop in-visits & dog walking, basic grooming, overnight visits (both in clients home & my own home), and more! I have fostered cats in the past, volunteered at the Whitewater Cat Cafe (Sip and Purr) and volunteered at CARE Animal Hospital-related vet/marketing events. I have also owned small animals like rats, hamsters, fish, and leopard geckos. I also have numerous positive referrals outside of Rover if you are looking for more reviews! I work full-time remotely in Wauwatosa and have a flexible schedule to care for your animals. I am available on all weekday mornings, lunch breaks (depending on day & proximity), week nights and weekends. I have reliable transportation. I am a very responsible young professional who has a lot of experience caring for animals. I grew up with a variety of pets, currently have two cats of my own, and plan to treat your pets like my own. My rates are open for discussion to help fit your needs.

About: After graduating from Harvard, I moved from the Northeast to Wisconsin to train for speed skating. I grew up as a critter kid: my dad was a veterinarian and my mom worked in science museums, so I was raised around all sorts of animals, from birds, axolotls, and geckos to furry dog and cat companions. Since my move, I have been "dog-lonely" and am looking to show your animals some love. My family has always had huskies, so I am comfortable around big, goofy, energetic, and sometimes stubborn dogs. I love taking dogs for walks, but even more so, running with them if they are able. As a professional photographer, I also offer pet photography so you can keep permanent memories of your scaley, feathered, and furry family members. I am a speed skater, so my days consist of morning and evening workouts. I'm available during the day (10am-3pm) and overnight (after 7pm) to take care of your pets. I will always ask for a meet and greet before caring for your pets. My pet care will occur in your home and neighborhood. For walks, I will only take one household's dogs for a walk at a time. I can follow detailed instructions to a T and will maintain your animal's routines while you're away. I can be counted on in an emergency and know what a vet emergency looks like, and you can expect clear and timely communication from me around the care and health of your animals.

“Charlotte was awesome. The dogs were a bit over excited at first but she did a great job of calming them down. Would recommend.”

“Sydney was awesome! She took a lot of super cute photos and was communicative and respectful. I would highly recommend her for your next walk!”
