  We consider black probes of Anti-de Sitter and Schr\"{o}dinger spacetimes
embedded in string theory and M-theory and construct perturbatively new black
hole geometries. We begin by reviewing black string configurations in Anti-de
Sitter dual to finite temperature Wilson loops in the deconfined phase of the
gauge theory and generalise the construction to the confined phase. We then
consider black strings in thermal Schr\"{o}dinger, obtained via a null Melvin
twist of the extremal D3-brane, and construct three distinct types of black
string configurations with spacelike as well as lightlike separated boundary
endpoints. One of these configurations interpolates between the Wilson loop
operators, with bulk duals defined in Anti-de Sitter and another class of
Wilson loop operators, with bulk duals defined in Schr\"{o}dinger. The case of
black membranes with boundary endpoints on the M5-brane dual to Wilson surfaces
in the gauge theory is analysed in detail. Four types of black membranes,
ending on the null Melvin twist of the extremal M5-brane exhibiting the
Schr\"{o}dinger symmetry group, are then constructed. We highlight the
differences between Anti-de Sitter and Schr\"{o}dinger backgrounds and make
some comments on the properties of the corresponding dual gauge theories.
