Dog Walking Young America

“As always, Sonja was amazing! She completely understands our dogs and takes such great care of them. We are so blessed to have her help with our two dogs.”

About: Hi! Im Sydney and Ive owned pets basically my entire life. When I was younger I grew up with 4 cats and a black lab (which I owned since she was a puppy). I also owned guinea pigs for a few years. Currently, I own a border collie mix that we adopted from the Washington County humane society. Pet care is currently a big focus so I have a lot of flexibility! However my schedule currently doesn't work as well for long term repeat bookings. Longer house sits (7+) days might be a bit more difficult as well but I try my best to make it work! Safety is very important for me (knowing warning signs of issues like GDV, making sure hazardous items are put away, etc). Regular updates - such as pictures of walks and playtime activities - will be given frequently. I will work hard to maintain your pets typical routine by following any given instructions closely. I'm also someone who likes to do research about different breeds. Each breed is different so I like to be prepared on how each breed can act and what their needs might be. My end goal will always be to ensure both you and your pet are comfortable as I care for them

“Monica is amazing with my two pups. She takes them on good long walks. And if there is additional tasks that the dogs need she does it for me. Me and my fiancé definitely recommend her.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I currently have a cocker spaniel who is my whole world. I have trained him myself and love him like a child. I walked dogs for my hometown humane society growing up and will be happy to continue dog centered work for my West Bend and surrounding areas community! I work part time serving so mornings and all days mondays and tuesdays I am available! I love being outside and getting my steps in and have plenty of time to set aside for walking my furry friends! I believe playing with the pups is very important. I love playing fetch, training, and cuddling. I love trying new mind stimulating games for pups as well!

About: I currently work at Hightest kennels part time. I’ve also fostered 14 dogs/puppies for Hightest kennels. I am very good at taking care of dogs at all ages. I also follow your instructions very well. I have taken care of puppies, dogs with disabilities and, senior dogs. I have potted trained many dogs and have been successful every time. I am very patient with animals. I am also going to school to become a veterinary assistant. I am currently working part-time at Hightest kennels I would be able to work after Hightest and on my days off. I usually work 2-3 days a week. I will fit pet care in whenever I am not at work. At my home I have two labs that love being around other animals. I have a fenced in area for my dogs to give them time outside. In a client’s home I want to know if your dog has a routine and keep your pet on their routine. I take my pets out many times a day if they are not in their fenced in area. I can also create my dogs if wanted.

“Great care of our Rocky!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years now! I can pet sit from anything with fur to scales! I adore animals and provider the proper care they need! As well as spoil them with treats and pets! Whatever you want for your pet needs, I can provide! I am currently working a part time job that doesn’t get in the way of letting pets out/ take care of pet needs! I can accommodate for whatever is needed! I care for pets by taking them on walks, feeding on schedule, pets, treat giving, and many others! I am also a great housekeeper and will clean if it is requested!

About: I have dreamed about walking dogs since I was a little girl and now I have found a way to do it and get paid! I have two Weiner dogs at my mom's house, a labordooddle at my dad's, and two cats of my own.I know and love all kinds of dogs and cats! I will care and treat them like they are my own so trust me they will get the best care ever! They may even get a little spoiled... But I can be strict if you have certain rules you want them to abide by! I have training. Please consider me when thinking about who can care for your furry children. I will give them the best care they deserve! I work part time and have a flexible schedule, so I can be available when needed. I have a car for easy transportation as well. My cats get supervised time outside on harnesses and time in the breezeway with open windows to get some fresh air. My neighborhood is good for taking dogs on walks and there is a wonderful dog park near by!

About: I am experienced in both dog sitting and cat sitting, and am a reliable and friendly helper. I have experience with medicating and all temperaments. I am currently in school and work part-time, able to do multiple visits a day or walk in early afternoon or night. Once summer hits I will have extended availability! I am knowledgeable in animal care as well as illness symptoms. I can administer medications and stick to feeding plan for any pet, not just dogs and cats.

About: I have had experience taking care of dogs for over 20 years from my own dogs to neighbors and friends/family. I love to take them on walks, runs, play and stay active during the day. I grew up with two boxers and currently have two dogs of my own; a large puppy GSP and a smaller boxer mix that I love and spoil immensely. I'm fairly available and am very knowledgeable about dietary, health and grooming of dogs. I am one who cares for every wound and itch and urged to play that my furs have had. I have had to take care of wounds from outdoor sticks, ticks, nail breakage, teeth and have no fear with any. I am overly devoted to the health of my dogs and treat others I am watching the same.

About: My name is Kailie, and I am 20 years old. I have grown up around dogs my entire life, and I have always loved them! I was always the little kid who would go up to strangers asking to pet their dog, and I still will! Dogs deserve love too! I have one adorable Shepherd/Terrier mix at home, who is a little over one years old! I have trained her to do a lot of tricks, including how to give hugs and kisses on command! She definitely is a wild one though! She loves to play tug of war, and ball, and if she doesn’t, she gets a little sassy! Her absolute favorite thing though is to play with other dogs! Especially my sister’s and brothers’s dogs! Whenever they need someone to watch their dogs, I’m normally the first call! My dog definitely loves having the company, but I know my siblings are also just happy to have their dogs in a loving and caring home! I work full time, 2-11pm, and I get an hour and 15 minute lunch break, so I can always let dogs out on my lunch break if needed! I have off every Saturday and Tuesday as well, so I’m free those days! My dog normally just roams the house while we are gone. When I let her outside she gets put on a leash. We do let her free roam with a shock collar on when we play ball though. However, I am willing to do whatever fits your routine and whatever your dog is comfortable with! If a crate works best for them, or if they get let out in a fenced yard, then that’s what we will do! Whatever works for you and your dog!

About: Hey there! A little about me, I am a huge animal lover, I grew up with my mom house sitting on rover! So I’m very used to many dogs of all sizes! I am in college (hybrid) and don’t have the space for my own pup, so caring for others animals gives me my fix! I was the neighborhood dog walker, I have pet sat for family and friends, I also have experience with cats, and exotics, chinchillas, ferrets, birds, bunnies, farm animals, you name it!:) My days are super flexible, I’m always communicative about when I’m gone. My classes are hybrid, so I don’t have to go in to school often, if I do it’s normally short periods! Meaning plenty of time for your lovely pets!! I have lots of experience with all type of temperaments when it comes to dogs and cat’s and other animals, I’m also very communicative and send lots of updates and photos!

About: I grew up with dogs, and while I currently do not have pets myself, I spend a considerable amount of time with my sister’s dogs. I have dog sat for them as well as friends and acquaintances over the past several years. I currently work part time and will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. I like to stick to a schedule that works best for you and your pets while you’re away. I would only be able to provide care in a client’s home and could either stop in or stay for an extended period of time.

“Amazing communication. Very friendly. Was able to squeeze me in very quick.”

“Very good walker, Was willing to come to my location to meet the dogs before hand and I was able to give her instructions. She left the dog poop in a bag on my front door step when there are garbage in the front of the property. That is only reason I'm giving her 4 stars. Otherwise I am very happy with how she did.”

About: I have 15 years experience with big dogs. I have high energy and will guarantee your dog/dogs will have plenty of exercise. You can trust that your animal will be in safe hands whether you need short or long term care. I’m self employed and have a flexible schedule. Therefore I can make trips throughout the day for potty breaks, walks or feedings. I’m available very early and late hours. I only let dogs out on a leash to keep them safe. I do have a one year old lab that will keep your dog company and on their toes.

About: I have raised dogs most of my life, I have walked them almost every day, taught them tricks, and taught them to not jump or bark at others. I have two dogs of my own and are my sole responsibility to take care of every day. I make sure to walk them and take them to the park when nice outside. Feeding them, walking them, make sure they are entertainined while playing. I try to train them more and more to train my youngest dog to become a therapy dog.

About: I have been around animals, my whole life it doesn’t matter if it’s my pets, my friends, pets or even my families pets. I have had rabbits, fish, cats, and dogs. When I was first born and at a very young age, my parents had a cat named Misty. Misty was a farm cat, and I learned at the young age of how to take care of a pet and a cat. It didn’t matter if it was giving the cat exercise, feeding the cat, giving it water or even cleaning out the litter pan. I also at a young age at around eight learned how to take care of a dog as my family got a golden retriever. We got this golden retriever named Sam from Humane Society, and Sam was an older dog about eight years old. I learned how to take care of an older dog, feeding it, giving exercise and water, and of course playing fetch, because what golden retriever doesn’t like fetch. After these animals, I got a Maine Coon cat named Cowboy. Again I learned how to take care of Cowboy by feeding Cowboy, giving Cowboy water and emptying the litter pan along with playing with Cowboy. Cowboy was a bit younger when I got him and was about eight months old. After cowboy, I was Lucky enough to get a black lab as a puppy, named Lucky. I named Lucky Lucky because what dog is not lucky to have me as their owner to take them on runs! Lucky was about four months old and again a potty trained Lucky, took Lucky to training classes and also trained Lucky on my own at home helping Lucky to learn to sit stay and play. After Lucky I got a rescue dog named Dyno, Dyno was a rescue dog from a high kill shelter in Alabama and when I did a DNA test on Dyno, Dyno came out to be a black lab pointer mix with a little bit of terrier and boxer in her as well. Dyno was approximately four months old as well when I got her. I helped Dyno learn to be potty trained took her to training classes and train her at my house as well. I helped Dyno to learn, sit and stay, and also place along with playing dead. I recently just moved out of my house, and unfortunately Dyno had to stay with my parents, because Dyno doesn’t get along with other dogs as well. I did have to be very cognizant, while I took care of Dyno, to make sure Dyno did not injure or hurt other dogs, and keep Dyno safe as well, so I’m very good at making sure and keeping track of dogs when they’re along with other dogs so that they don’t fight. I am smart and know the signs dogs have if they are nervous, worried, or scarred. I moved in with my fiancé, who has a seven year-old golden retriever named Molly, and I am currently taking care of Molly. Molly is an unbelievable golden retriever dog, loves to go for runs and play fetch. If you have a dog that loves to go for runs or walks I will gladly take them for runs and walks to get my exercise in with them. What dog does not like to go for a run? Hope I can help you walk/run and take care of your animals just like I love to take care of my own! I am a police officer and have many days off during the week. So if you need someone to let your furry friends out while at work I am perfect for that. One week I work Monday Tuesday Friday to Sunday. I’m off Wednesday and Thursday the following week off Monday Tuesday and the weekend. In my professional life, I am a police officer, so not only do I take care of animals in my personal life, but also in my professional life when they are lost, and I need to get them back to the owner, or even dropping them off at the Humane Society so they are safe. Recently on the Snowmobile Trail. I actually found a kitten and was able to get the kitten to come to me so that it did not freeze to death in the woods and get it to a business near the Snowmobile Trail so that it could be returned to the Humane Society to stay safe . Based off of my schedule in my professional life of being a police officer, I have many days off during the week. So if you’re at work and need your furry friends to be let outside, I am the perfect person. As I have many off days on Monday Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday while others are working. I can explain my schedule better however here is a break down. Week one. I work Monday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday. I am off Wednesday and Thursday Week two. I only work Wednesday and Thursday off the rest of the week. Even if you are home and you’re an individual that doesn’t like to go for runs or walk or are older, I could take care of your animal and let them out take them for a walk or run while you were at home as well, just to get them exercise, I would be happy to do that because then I get my exercise as well. On the weekends, I would be available most all the time as well, unless I am busy, but I would do drop in short notice type calls as well! With me working in the school during the school year, I have off days during the school year that your kids are off as well. So spring break I am open all day, or just even random days during the week they are off as well. So please keep that in mind. In the summer I am free at 2pm to let your dog outside. My schedule just changed and I work night shift. So I am available anytime during the day as long as I’m not sleeping. The days I work stays the same regarding off days and not. Right now I am not planning on having dogs or cats stay at my house with my dog Molly, so this is not something you need to worry about however, if I’m walking or taking your dog for a run, I would make sure to bring my light up light collar for your dog so that your dog is safe whether it’s dark out. If you have one I would use yours. This will make sure your dog has your collar on with its leash and keep your dog or cat safe.

“She is absolutely amazing and will definitely be calling her again in the future.”

“Paul was excellent with Luna! He was very responsive and flexible with our timing needs. He sent pictures and used the walk update feature on rover so I could see exactly what Lunas walks looked like. Would definitely book with him again!”
