About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.

“Meagan was on time, thorough, and communicative! Happily would have her watch our pups overnight again!”

“Katelyn watched my English Bulldog and Chocolate Lab while I was on vacation for several days. She took great care of my fur babies. She fed them, walked them, let them out several times, and gave them loves and pets. She sent good notes and several pictures and videos throughout the stay.”

“Ann took great care of Jaxon. I would recommend her if you want someone to stay with your loved pet. I will definitely have her come back.”

“Adrianne was a great pet sitter. She confirmed quickly and set up a meet and greet. My Cavapoo gave her hugs and kisses as soon as she arrived. He likes longer walks and she was awesome to explore nearby trails and parks with him. Adrianne is personable and professional.”

About: I’m active, reliable, and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Plus, I provide frequent updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands! I’ve had experience doing drop ins for my neighbors energetic dogs while they were away and boarding my parents dogs for extended periods of times making sure they felt at home! Whether the dog is young, energetic, and loves going on runs or like slow, leisurely walks, I’m your girl! I am a recent graduate from the University of Wisconsin Madison and I studied marketing. I’m enjoying my summer post grad at home with my family and pets until i find a career in Marketing. I’m available any day of the week to take care of and love your pets! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, making sure they feel comfortable, well-fed, and, of course, loved! I have experience dog sitting for my neighbor’s energetic pup, so I’m used to keeping dogs active, engaged, and happy with regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether it’s a couch cuddle session or outdoor adventure, your pet will feel right at home with me.

About: Dog owner x 30years. Had 2 dogs x 10 years, otherwise only 1 dog. Dogs enjoyed family adventures. Currently enjoying being a Grandma to my Grand pastor and foster pups Working part-time as RN, Jazzercise and caregiver for seniors. Schedule flexible. Have a SUV that I can transport dog to the dog park if desired. I use a long leash for yard. Enjoy walking dogs on heel when in residential areas. Enjoy the variety of parks, hiking trails and water in my neighborhood.

About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was four years old. I’ve had pets of varying sizes and activity levels, from a 100 pound collie to an 8 pound toy poodle. My current apartment doesn't allow pets, so in the meantime I’m looking to vicariously live through your fur baby! I work a hybrid corporate job with typical business hours. I have limited daytime availability depending on the location, but full availability in the mornings, late afternoon/evenings, and on weekends. Safety is my top priority. I make sure all dogs stay leashed when outdoors in a non-fenced area. I make sure doors are locked when I leave and the pet is properly crated (if applicable) with fresh water.
