Dog Walkers in Whitewater, WI

“Samantha came through for us last minute while we were in town visiting family. One of our boys is blind and it’s often difficult to find dog walkers willing to accommodate him. I was nervous having someone he doesn’t know walk him, but Samantha was so kind and eased my nerves. We really appreciate her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, whether that be my own, my neighbors, or my grandparents. I’ve worked in a doggy daycare for 3 years, walking, feeding and giving potty breaks to the dogs and of course playing with them! Through daycare I have gained experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. From young and full of energy to older and gentle. I’ve had experience handling high energy dogs as well as reactive dogs. Working in a professional setting has taught me how to read dog body language and manage playgroup safely. I know how tough it is to be away from your pet, I miss mine everyday when I’m away at school, so I will be sure to take lots of photos of your cute furry family member and follow whatever routines you have for feeding, training, medication, exercise, etc. I’m currently working part-time, mostly nights and some afternoons so I’ll have plenty of time for your furry family members! My work schedule is set in stone for the summer, meaning I know exactly what my availability is weeks in advance. This makes it easy for me to plan my shifts around my pet-sitting commitments and ensures I can offer your pup consistent, reliable care without any surprise conflicts. I am dedicated to caring for your pets in whatever setting and way makes you and your furry family member most comfortable! If you prefer care at my place, please note that I live in an upper-level apartment with roommates and do not have a fenced-in yard. However, because of my professional experience, I am extremely vigilant with leash safety, frequent potty breaks, and outdoor supervision. That being said, I completely understand that many pets thrive best in their own familiar environment. If your home is where they feel safest, then that is exactly where I will be to keep them happy, loved, and on their normal routine!

“Hayley did a great job with Moose. She was very attentive to his needs and I could tell he was happy and well exercised when I got home. Thank you, Hayley!!”

If you need aquarium care, I have a lot of experience with freshwater and saltwater, including reef, aquariums. I grew up raising and taking care of chickens.

If your pet is particularly stubborn, let me know and I can bring some high value treats to help build some trust.

About: My family has always had dogs and cats growing up that started out as puppies and taking care of them every day. I take them out, feed them, and clean up after them. I am currently working full time at my job, but I don't work Wednesdays or Sundays and I could do Monday and Saturday mornings before 2. I can walk, feed, and look after pets. I have experience in both dogs and cats, so I know how to clean up with both pets.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life from family dogs to neighborhood dogs. From walks to just potty breaks I can provide the best care. I am currently training my own puppy to be the best hunting companion. He has learned to love his kennel and that it is his quiet space. I work part time Monday through Wednesday I am home by 2pm but need time to let my own puppy have some outside time. Thursday and Friday I am home all day other than the occasional appointments. I am able to spend up to two hours with your pet getting the wiggles out or learning some of the basics. Weekends are my family time so I am mostly unavailable other than a random Saturday if my partner ends up working. At my home we are fenced in on 3 sides from neighbors but I have a tie out available. At your home I am comfortable with crates or not and Im willing and able to clean up any mess your furry companion may make. I am comfortable with walking with a harness or not.

“Overall a great person. Very easy to work with, easy to reach, fast reaponses, punctual... Took care of our dogs by giving them walks while we were on vacation. The pups loved Allison. Thank you for everything!!”

About: I’ve always had a dog within my household. I had a childhood dog when I was two and she lived for 14 years. She taught me a lot about being a dog owner and was the best dog. After losing her my family got two more dogs since it was hard not having a dog, we’ve now had them for 4.5 years. I worked at a petting farm for 3.5 years and had a lot of experience with different animals and also puppies since we had raised puppies there. At the petting farm I also worked with cats and got some experience with them. I currently work at a dog kennel and we also have cats there too. I’ve learned how to fully take care of cats, cleaning litter and the boarding rooms, feeding them, giving them medicine, and grooming them by brushing them or wiping their faces. Overall I know how to work with dogs of all ages and cats, and I love being around either of the two! :) Im currently working a part time job, I will have a lot of availability until around mid May. After May I should be flexible with any day and hours! I also plan on leaving my job in August since the kennel will be shutting down so I can fully commit to the dogs on Rover then! :) I take my dogs on walks as much as I can. My parents mainly take care of them since I am a full time student at UWW and I’m only home on the weekends. I also make sure they have food and water 24/7, I let them out as much as possible since they love being outside too even if it’s not going potty, and I give them a lot of attention anytime I see them. I do spoil my dogs a lot too and I would do the same with any dogs I meet! :)

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have learned to take take care of them with feeding, walking, and bathing. I also grew up in a house with parents who have trained dogs. I have 2 dogs at home which I take care of regularly. I help walk them and feed them and take them outside every day. I plan on treating every animal I care for with the same love and care. I look forward to taking care and meeting your pets.

About: I have helped take care of animals ever since I was 5. Over the years, I have dog sat for friends and neighbors along with providing support when needed. I have never not had a pet and have always made sure to do my research to ensure I am treating any pet in the best way possible along with ensuring what is and isn’t safe for different animals. I have many friends that come to me first when they need help, especially with their animals. Many of my friends have called me a dog whisperer. I currently work full time from home as an accountant. I tend to be home most weekends and my hours make it very easy to fit any animal into my schedule. I have 2 rabbit currently at my home and my neighbors have a dog, cats, and chickens. I would always make sure that the animal is supervised as I know how important a pet is and the responsibility necessary to ensure it stays safe. I did recently have a baby as well that would be joining me most of the time. I work from home full time and recently had a baby that I take care of full time too. As long as animals are comfortable with a baby, I am always happy to help out. I provide safe, reliable, and loving care for pets in my home or my client’s home by following their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and medication if needed. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and comfort. I also monitor their behavior closely and keep owners updated for peace of mind.

About: We have grown up with animals our entire lives. Currently, we have two charming dogs and one adorable cat. Our top priority is to create a nurturing environment where animals feel safe, secure and at ease. We also have two younger children in the home, so any visiting dogs would have to be okay with them. All interactions are supervised for everyone's safety. Please message me with any questions. I work Tuesday - Friday, leaving Monday for the dogs (and cats)! Our children are involved in almost every sport possible, and we love taking our dogs with us to their practices and games. Yours can join too if they are up to it! Playing fetch, tug of war, or just cuddling on the couch, whatever it is that suits your dog best, we are up for it! I am available for drop-ins after morning school drop-off, during lunch and before school pick-up on Monday’s, along with offering dog walks in the morning and afternoon hours on Mondays. We appreciate your understanding, and cooperation. Your dog/cat will be treated like a member of our family, and I will do my best to ensure they enjoy their time. They will enjoy 1:1 time, being spoiled, and treated like royalty.

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!
