I Woof You! Valentine’s Day Packages
Hello from Off Leash MKE
Hi! My name is Lori and I own Off Leash MKE. Before I moved back home to Milwaukee in 2008 I had a job throwing parties, one of the best parties I ever threw was an after party for Daft Punk’s Lollapalooza performance in 2008, it got so crazy I had to tell Kanye West he couldn’t come in because we were at capacity. So what does that have to do with dogs? Well, I’ve missed events, so I am very excited to announce the Adventure Club for Dogs is officially launching in 2021 and we will be hosting events for you and your dogs every month all around the Milwaukee area. AND if you sign up for our mailing list and RSVP we will never have to turn you away due to being over capacity ; )
How did I get here? I am from Milwaukee and moved back in 2008 when my daughter started high school. I spent 10 years working for my family’s healthcare business, and In 2015 I started volunteering as a dog walker at Wisconsin Humane Society, I wanted to learn & do more, so I took an opportunity in Veterinary Services, working with the intake animals, in addition to volunteering for Pets for Life, a community outreach program. I received training in behavior & first aid, including the administration of medications, special diets, subcutaneous fluids, and other treatments, I gained invaluable hands on experience handling hundreds of dogs & cats.
Around the same time I started walking dogs part time on the Rover app and in 2018 I was motivated to leave my job and start Off Leash Milwaukee. I wanted to take my experience in human health care and highlight the importance of compassion, specialized training, accountability and certification, and apply it to taking care of pets.
I am passionate about rescue, and volunteer for 2 organizations very close to my heart! Friends of MADACC & Urban Cat Coalition. I am mom to Aria, all grown up and also a small business owner, and my fur kids, Cooper, Atticus, Chaos, Rascal, Dahlia, and Brewster.
Since joining the team in June 2024, Maddie has been showing our furry clients a great time with home visits, pack plays, and sniffaris! Continue reading to learn more about the fun and hard working person behind the leash!
