Dog Walkers in West Milwaukee, WI

“Emily was quick to respond when I was needing someone to take care of my dogs with very short notice. Throughout the process she has been very communicative, reliable, and my dogs were well taken care of.”

“Vilma came over last minute for a meet and greet to meet my anxious boy. My boy didn’t allow himself to be taken out from the crate and on a walk, but I so appreciate Vilma’s patience with him.”

About: I’ve had at least 1 pet my entire life, so I’m no stranger to caring for pets in my home. Beginning in middle school and until now, I’ve been entrusted by family, friends, and coworkers to take care of their pets while they’re away. I have experience with house visits, walking or dog park trips, and overnight care. While I don’t have direct experience with pets who require medical attention, I’d be happy to learn with you. I do have experience with senior pet care. Overall, I guarantee I’ll take care of your pet like my own! I recently graduated from PA school and am job searching currently, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m available for daytime care or overnight care daily. When looking after your pet, I will always take care of them like my own. I’m happy to play with them in the yard, take them on walks or to the park, lounge with them on the couch on a rainy day, or crate them if needed. I can stick to strict meal or medication times and will ensure they have potty breaks with appropriate clean up.

“Sarah is amazing. Communication was great, and she did everything I requested. My baby slept the whole afternoon after his walk and playtime. At the end of the visit, I got a bunch of pictures and a very detailed report. Contrary to my past experiences in Rover, where they would stay on their phones the whole time, she was actively playing with Milo and even correcting him when necessary. She also remembered what we told her about Milo’s love for breaking soft toys and took it away before leaving. So far, she is going to be my “go-to” person in Rover.”

“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.”

About: Growing up we had three dogs and they all lived very long lives and unfortunately passed within the span of a few months. We rescued two beautiful cocker spaniels Charlie and Minx to go along with our family dog Maya who was coincidentally a cocker spaniel. My job in the family was always to take care of the cats, dogs, and rabbits. I loved taking care of animals and my favorite activity was going for walks with the dogs. I currently am enrolled at MATC and am in the radiography program. I have a long break before registration for the Radiography petition window is open and would love to spend my extra free time taking care of pets. I also set my availability as available for all days of the week to accommodate last minute appointments. From our cat Moo to my leopard gecko Richard all of the animals in my house are pampered daily. I would treat each clients animal the same way that I treat mine. All animals are treasures and we as humans are honestly blessed to get to take care of them. All animals have different personalities and I believe that each one requires different kinds of care. Some animals loved to be touched and held whereas some are hesitant at first or it may make them anxious. Being able to respect and discern these traits early on will help make the animal feel more relaxed and trust you.

About: I've always had pets in the house since I was little, dogs and cats mostly. I have two of my own dogs, trained them both when they were puppies. I also volunteered at the Wisconsin Humane Society for 8 years, I was a dog walker, which entailed cleaning rooms, walking them, feeding them, playing with them, etc. Always had so much fun seeing all the types of dogs coming in. I'm currently working full time but I normally work the same days, shifts varies from week to week. But I would like to add more fun to my life and not so strict with work work work. So I would love to add more Rover days to my weeks as time goes on. I have a fully fenced yard, plenty of space in the yard and in the house. I have baby gates to rooms that don't need to be entered and at the top of some of our steps to prevent falls. Always pay attention any unusual signs that the pet might be in distressed. Also aware of little things as I come across them with the fur babies.

About: I love spending time with dogs and have an easy time getting along with different varieties of dog and dog personality. I'm happy being active with your pup and getting in some good walking or fetching time, or just chilling out and scratching behind the ears if so desired. I'm glad to serenade your pet as well, I love a captive audience! Simply let me know what you want for your dog while you're out of the house and I'll provide it. I am glad to cater to your desired approach of dog ownership, strict or relaxed, as long as it does not include physical punishment. Regarding the time slots listed - I might have a hard time making the earliest of the first shift but I should be able to manage 8 AM, and I could gladly go as late as 5 or maybe 6 PM, but wouldn't care to go as late as 10.

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and attention I give to every pet in my care. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy learning the ropes or a sweet senior needing extra support, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with basic puppy training, including leash manners, crate comfort, and potty routines. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs—administering medication, helping with mobility, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet won’t just get a sitter—they’ll get a new friend who truly cares, communicates well, and treats them like family. As a student with a very flexible school schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet care pretty easily—as long as I have a little notice, I can make it work! I love spending time with animals, whether it's getting outside for a good walk or just hanging out at home. On weekends, you can usually find me curled up with a furry friend or two—it’s honestly my favorite way to relax. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and right at home—whether that means sticking to their usual routine, keeping their environment calm, or giving them extra one-on-one attention. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to walk times and any special quirks your pet may have. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with lots of snuggle spots and safe spaces to relax. Building trust with both pets and their people is important to me, and I always aim to communicate clearly and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you're away.

About: I’ve cared and loved for dogs since I was probably 8 (if not younger). If your dog needs a buddy to run around with, play, snuggle, or just needs someone around to watch them if they’re a little naughty, I got you covered. I’ve cared for puppies, elderly dogs, well behaved and not so well behaved pets. I have provided oral medication as well as maintaining hygiene with baths. I understand every dog has a different daily routine, and i’m happy to make sure your dog is as comfortable and happy as possible. I work at Target, mainly closing shifts but an occasional morning (willing to share more in depth schedule if you have questions, just ask!) I always have off on Wednesdays and usually another day of the week. If you need long term care, let me know 3+ weeks in advance and I can happily assist! I am available most mornings. However, I have a pretty much open availability for cats needing to stay at my apartment for an any period of time. Again, if you have any questions about certain days just ask! At my home, I have 2 cats and tons of toy options to choose from. I unfortunately cannot hold dogs in my apartment, I would love to, however I live in a smaller apartment with not much yard space and that just feels unfair to the dog. At your home, I will do the best I can to follow your pets daily routine unless given other instructions.

About: I know how stressful it can be having to leave your beloved fur baby in someone else's care, which is why I care for every animal like they are my own and to the highest standard so that you can stress less. I've had Goldens my whole life and I've been dog sitting since I was 15 years old. I currently have two rescue Pit Terrier mixes. I love being active and going for long walks and jogs with dogs. I enjoy playing, cuddling, scratching bellies and making sure your fur babies get all the love, attention, and stimulation while you are away. I have experience with fearful and geriatric dogs. I am a High School Spanish teacher during the day (se habla español). I can come by or board after 4pm on weekdays or on weekends anytime. In the summer, I have lots of availability and flexible hours! I have a fenced yard and two parks close by that are great for walks. My two pups love Rover play dates and get along with most dogs.

“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life and currently share my home with three cats and one dog - it's a full house! I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, including my own 13-year-old who needs daily medication. I also grew up with huskies, so I'm no stranger to high-energy breeds and the active care they require. On the flip side, I'm just comfortable with laid-back pus - my pug keeps things goofy and fun. Whether it's administering meds, going for long walks, or just providing companionship, I bring patience, energy, and love to every pet I care for. I work full-time remotely, which gives me the flexibility to offer morning and afternoon drop-ins and walks during the week. On weekends, I'm fully available for all listed services and can accommodate a wider range of times. My home has a partially fenced yard and system of tall gates inside to safely separate cats and dogs when needed, so every pet can feel secure and relaxed. I'm happy to kennel your pup if that's part of their routine or needed for comfort. Your pet's safety and peace of mind are always my top priority.

About: ## INTRODUCTION Howdy there, thanks for choosing my Rover! I go by Billy! First things first — My highest priority is the safety and well-being of any dog in my care. Outside of that, I'm also big on making sure they have a blast, are loved, and feel secure in my home. I am energetic and warm, yet firm. I've owned and raised 4 dogs over the course of 18 years, from puppydom to old age, and have cared for many more. I am adept at handling dogs large and small - physically and training-wise. ## SCHEDULE I am fortunate to have a highly flexible schedule. Your dog will always be safe by my side. I’m quite fond of dogs, so it’s a joy for me to spend my time in this way. ## APPROACH TO CARE I want to understand the needs and expected behaviors of any pet in my care, given your specific guidance and instructions. I am highly communicative and err on the side of caution, as your doggo’s safety and well-being are absolutely the highest priority for me. I have a highly flexible schedule since I'm in the middle of a job search, so I'll have all the time in the world to hang, play with, and co-work with your pup! I have the entire upper floor of my house available for your dog to lounge and roam in, equipped with multiple dog beds and lots of toys. There's also a fenced yard in the back whose concretedness is optimal for ball bouncing and catching, keep away, chasing, and more!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats the last 15 years of my life, and see myself with a pet by my side for the rest of my life. I currently have a 5 year old female golden doodle named Lulu who is my best friend. We enjoy going on long walks, park visits, exploring nature and socializing in downtown Milwaukee. I love all sorts of cats and dogs, no matter the breed, shape or size! During the summer I have off as I work in the education field so my schedule is much more flexible. I am willing to accommodate nearly all schedules with notice, both on weekdays and weekends. During the school year I am limited to late afternoons and evenings, along with weekends. Holidays are available with advanced notice. I have a fenced in backyard with gates. I always put a collar on my dog when we leave the house and she always has a leash. I take great pride and caution when having my pets outside as I give them and other animals the space they need. I will always ask permission from owners as to what works best for their companions.
