“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 have 2+ years formal experience of working with dogs, I've completed a dog training course for one of my jobs as well. Pet sitting wise, I have multiple years experience. I am experienced in dog training, administering medication, daily cleaning tasks, pet bathing as well as nail trimming. I am getting my start in vet med as I recently worked in a vet clinic as well! I have full time availability so my whole day will go into caring for your pet and making sure they have an enriching time! While with your pet I can make use off all the time given and make sure schedules stay in tact as well. I can easily crate your animal if needed and have experience with working with dog kennels. I'm able to play and keep up with dogs in a wider environment like a yard, and can keep things calm in a closed one or inside the house. I am experienced in dog training so if there are any commands to be implemented I can make sure the training stays up to date.
About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! I’m available Monday-Friday afternoons. My pets live the best life in my home. They are so spoiled. In your home, I care for them as my own and give them lots of love!
About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family over the years and currently care for my own Siberian Husky, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I understand the importance of sticking to routines, providing plenty of exercise, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or just lots of love and attention, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send photo updates during every visit. I have a flexible schedule on weekends and I work during week days but will do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s needs! Whether your dog needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m currently not offering boarding in my own home but if it’s the right situation I can possibly make it work! I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and text updates for peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. As the owner of an energetic Siberian Husky, I’m comfortable caring for large, active breeds and understand the patience and attention they require. I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would my own, ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for. While I primarily offer walks, drop-in visits, and in-home pet sitting, I’m also open to boarding on a case-by-case basis if it’s a good fit for both your pet and mine.
About: As a young adult I cared for my neighbor's pets, some time managing up to three houses. I have experience with families with three dogs, fish, lizards, and chickens I am a full time grad student at UW Milwaukee. mM classes are online so I mostly study at home but I will got to a coffee shop or the library. I run with my friends at least twice a week, and I have dinner with friends and family once a week. I have a fenced in back yard, and several large rooms in my house. I mostly work from home so I can give your pet all day attention do not have children and keep a clean house.
About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm comfortable with dogs from all walks of life. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.
About: As a pet owner myself I truly understand they are part of your family and treat them as such! I have been taking care of cats and dogs for friends, family and neighbors for many years. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to head out on a walk with your pup or check in on your cat I am very organized and reliable. I will keep to the routine given and always have you and your pets best interest in mind when they are in my care
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 3 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 7 years with backgrounds in daycare, training, and grooming. I can provide some or all of these components to my sessions with your pet. Pet care is a full time routine for me. I’m available and ready to put your fur baby in my schedule! I can be as active as your pet needs or the perfect couch potato partner. I care for the animals and the home based on client needs. I also am K9 & Feline CPR certified. It’s fun to me to try and find the activities and enrichment that best suit the pet and try to give them the best day possible with me.
About: I work primarily from home, outside of home for just a few hours a couple days a week. I love, love love dogs! have two fur babies right now, 11 years old and quite friendly. They have a mild temperament and enjoy playing with other dogs although they have slowed down in the past few years. I've had dogs my entire life with my first dog was given to me by my father when I was 3 years old and I can't recall a long span of time where I didn't have a dog. That is except a 4 year period after my fur baby Misha passed away 20 years ago. I play with my girls daily, give them massages, brush them and just make sure they get enough attention throughout the day. We go for short walks also...they are small so they don't make it too far without tiring out. They do enjoy the dog parks occasionally.
“Julie was great with my elderly dog! She was kind and personable and always cheerful! I appreciated her taking such good care of Rogue and walking her in treacherous conditions like ice and snow! I’d definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”
“We couldn't be more grateful for Justine! Rumi completely falls in love with her every time she walks through the door. She has such an incredible connection with animals, and we’ve trusted her 100% with both walks and overnight stays since day one. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our boy!”
About: I am a lover of all animals (dogs, cats, snakes, you name it) and have always owned cats. I've regularly dogsat for family members while they're on vacation, but my cat Lily does not get along well with dogs, so I have never had one personally. I am very active and outdoorsy, and would make sure your furbabies remain active and happy while they're being cared for by me. I am comfortable caring for animals who may require a little extra care, as I'm accustomed to administering my family cat Lily with her twice daily medication. I work a part-time service industry job, so I am always available before 3pm on weekdays, and do not tend to work very long shifts on any day of the week other than Saturday. My schedule varies every week, but I would not accept a job for days that I will be working too much. My family cat, Lily, is 17.5 years old with severe hearing loss and a twice daily medication. I regularly medicate her and ensure she is happy and healthy throughout the day, and would do the same with your furbabies.
About: I love dogs and have been caring for them since I was 12. With me, your pet will have the “Cool Aunt” as their sitter (with a couple dad jokes slid in as well). We’ll be the Paw-fect match! I’m currently working full time, so on top of meeting all of your pet’s needs, we’ll be taking advantage of long walks in good weather or doing fun activities such playing hide in seek or watching a relatable film for movie night (Beethoven is my favorite!) My services of care will depend on your instructions and boundaries for your fur baby along with your home. I take pride in doing what I do best whilst making sure every expectation you have of me is met.
About: I have had all sorts of pets since I was a kid - dogs, cats, fish, hamsters - so I understand body language and can know what your animal needs/wants based off that. I also worked at PetSmart, during which I was tasked with taking care of our cats and hamsters; therefore, I have ample experience with a variety of pets needs and personalities. I am currently a student, so my schedule is odd but I have plenty of time to come visit your pets or house sit! I am free everyday mainly midday and in the evening, but I can fit early morning visits as well. I can do any necessary task, be it bathing your pets, walking them, or simply feeding them and letting them out. I will also make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me before moving forward with care.
About: My husband and I loved our dog for 10 years. We can’t get another one anytime soon but will love yours like our own. We both had dogs as pets growing up and have cared for a pet for 40+ years. I am an elementary school principal. I am available for full-time care or walking June-August. Outside of that, I’m available full-time on the weekends and evenings during the week. We are available to accommodate personal requests, a safe environment and safe neighborhood. We are looking to provide care for your beloved pet and to help you out when needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Milwaukee
I really like Lea! I had been messaging her on and off for a few months bc before our original meet and greet, my dog got injured so we had to delay starting walks together. She said she would follow up with me, and actually did! I’ve had many experiences here where walkers just ghost me or don’t show up to meet and greets. It was refreshing to connect with someone reliable! Normally my dogs get very anxious and pace and pant when meeting new people- not with Lea. They both laid down right away and weren’t anxious at all. I caught the end of one of their walks and Lea was so responsive to my senior dog who had started to slow down— she immediately adjusted her pace to match my dog. It was a small but important detail. She is consistent, reliable, and trustworthy. You can really tell Lea enjoys what she does. She takes the added step of putting time and effort into the relationship with dog parents which is a crucial step, often missed by walkers. I highly recommend booking her for your animal needs. She’s now my primary dog walker! 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had to be away on a trip longer than we wanted to be, but our sweet Willow pup and three cats were in the BEST hands with Mallory. We got such awesome updates with photos and fun summaries of their adventures/walks. This was our second time with Mallory and she put us at such ease being far from home. We are all so blessed for her heart of gold and her priceless time. 🙏
Not only was Vanessa amazing with Bella, she was incredibly kind and totally helped me out on a holiday to boot! And last minute! I can't tell you how appreciative I am at how flexible she was. I really appreciate everything she did and I will definitely be booking her again. Thanks, Vanessa!
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.

The average cost of Dog Walking in West Milwaukee is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 West Milwaukee. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in West Milwaukee after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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 West Milwaukee. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
