Dog Walking in Woodland Hills, Madison, WI

About: I am in incoming second year at Colorado State University majoring in animal science and looking to become a Veterinarian. I have sat for family and friends pets since a very young age and have enjoyed all of my experiences. I worked at University of Wisconsin’s vet clinic for two years in High School taking care of and cleaning up after various kinds of animals. I am looking to gain more experience while I am home over the summer and caring for animals is something I love to do! I am available almost everyday over the summer with exceptions of some vacations. I am very flexible on the days I am in town as I don’t have another job or any other prior commitments. I can do anything needed including walking, feeding, cleaning up after, spending time with, or playing with animals. I would not be able to take any pets at my house since I have two dogs of my own but I would be more than willing to stay over at owner’s homes! really anything needed involving animal care I can provide.

“Allegra is the best with my dogs. She is responsible, great at quick communication, and truly treats my pups well when we need her to walk the. Or stay the night. We cant say enough nice things about Allegra.”

About: Experienced caring for dogs of all sizes, along with house cats, rodents and reptiles. Particular experience with medium and large size dogs who are anxious/reactive. Rates lowered while I establish myself on Rover. I work from home, so your dog will get a lot of attention when I care for them (and they'll probably get a nickname or two). Walks, bathroom breaks, visits to the dog park, and lots of pets and ear scratches all fit into my daily and weekly schedule with ease. I am willing to book outside of my typical radius for an increased fee to offset mileage, gas costs, and time. I have a lot of experience with anxious dogs in particular, so am used to reading what a dog needs and wants with a close eye. I take care to make sure that a dog is comfortable with me, that I respect their boundaries, that I respond to their needs, and that we remove ourselves from any situation that might upset or overwhelm them. I often ask a pet owner for details about their dog's usual routine, any particular habits they have, their behavior on leash, and what gives them comfort. This helps me better respond to what the dog is sharing about their needs.

“Jennifer is great! We'd love for her to walk our dog again (in fact we already rebooked). We needed help once a week with our 8mo puppy. Jennifer always picks him up on schedule and returns him happy and well exercised! Our dog loves everyone but my husband is convinced the pup loves Jennifer extra.”

“Donna took such good care of my 4-month old puppy and even sent photos to show me he was happy and having fun! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so grateful to Donna for making this a great experience. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, starting with walking dogs for my neighbors — from tiny terriers to big, energetic labs. That hands-on experience taught me how to handle different sizes, breeds, and personalities with confidence and care. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable nature and genuine love for animals. I’m comfortable with leash training, reading dog body language, and keeping even the most energetic pups engaged and happy. I’m also attentive to each pet’s needs — whether that means a brisk walk, a slow stroll for a senior, or extra cuddle time. Your pet’s safety, routine, and happiness always come first with me. I have a very flexible schedule and am available anytime — weekdays, weekends, and even holidays. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and can easily adjust my day around their needs. Whether it's an early morning walk, midday visit, or evening check-in, I’m ready whenever your pet needs me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it as my own. I follow all routines closely from feeding times to walks and medication and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. I keep a calm, clean environment and make sure pets feel secure, whether they’re outgoing or shy. I pay close attention to details like locked doors, clean water bowls, and tidy spaces. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away.

“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. They ranged from puppies all the way to them becoming senior dogs, and they all came from very different backgrounds. I am especially good with senior dogs. My childhood dog eventually had severe arthritis and needed medication and some extra help. I would do anything for her that helped her feel more comfortable! I also puppysit for some family members so I am also used to the craziness a puppy can bring! I am currently available most days at any time until August 11. My cat does need medication at 8pm, but any other time of the day works for me! I can care for your pets however you need in your home! Whether it's going on a walk, playing outside, or staying inside, whatever is best for them is doable!

“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”

About: I regularly walk and check in on a dog four times a week and have pet sat for several families. I’ve also helped care for my grandma’s dog over the years. I’m reliable, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I am currently on summer break, so I have a pretty high availability to care for pets — through boarding, quick walks, drop in visits, etc! I provide a calm, safe environment and always follow care instructions closely. Though I don’t have a fenced yard, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats — supervising pets carefully to ensure their safety and comfort at all times.

“We have a reactive dog that needs time, space and discipline. Sidney is very friendly, understanding and willing to work with us to make our pup comfortable. We are happy to book her again!”

About: Have had dogs all my life. Dog sitting experience. Veterinary work experience. I’m reliable & trustworthy. Love dogs of all kinds. They are just the best. I work nights, so I’m available for most times during the day. I don’t work every night though, so if you need a late check in or something just let me know what you’re thinking. My pup passed away 2.5 years ago so I’m just looking to spend some quality time with some dogs while I’m in school and have a good excuse to get outside 😊 🩷 Will pick up/drop off, bathe if needed, or run with your dog if they are needing a little more exercise. I have my boarding/daycare turned off at the moment because I live in a 550 sqr ft apartment and for most dogs, I feel that that would not be fair. But if you have either a small dog or a unique situation where this would be okay, just let me know what you’re thinking, because my apartment is dog friendly and has a dog bathing station in the garage. I may consider it on a case by case basis.

“Great job”
