House Sitting in Antigo

“Elicia did an amazing job watching our doodle, Finley. She stayed at our house and made sure he was taken care of. I would certainly book with Elicia again.”

“She was awesome! Sent us lots of pictures of our pup and cat, kept track of when our pup went out and what she did outside, and when/what they ate. Most importantly, our pets seemed very happy in her care. Definitely would like to book with her again!!”

About: My entire life I have been raised with lots of animals and was always so excited to play with the pups. I have always had a thought about wanting to become a dog trainer and when I bought my first dog that was my own it showed me that I really am interested in an animal focused career! I currently do not work, so I fortunately have all the free time to spend time and play with these sweet and amazing fur babies! I will always follow the clients wishes and preferred schedule. I know how scary it can be leaving your animal with someone else and not being able to be there:(

About: My fur babies are my everything. My love for animals started at home with my parents. We would feed the stray cats by our house and would find them homes. I have taken care of dogs, cats, lizards, birds, ect my entire life. My husband, my kids (ages 15 and 18), and myself all share a passion for animals. We foster dogs currently (typically German Shepherd mixes) and are excited to start on an adventure of quails, goats and chickens since moving. When your dogs/ cats are in our care they are treated as our own. Walks, snuggles, treats, and one-on-one care. *Our oldest girl Lexi suffered a blown disc in 10/2022. She was paralyzed from middle of her back down. Through meds, range of motion, massage, and lots of TLC she is up and moving but a bit wonky 🤪. We are fully prepared to care for elderly or disabled puppers. Our family just moved to Deerbrook and are still getting ourselves established. Currently I have open availability. *As we do foster dogs there may be times I am unavailable Saftey is always top priority. Leashes will be used when outside at all times unless owners prefer otherwise. I will always send photos and updates throughout the stay to ensure you feel confident in our arrangement.

“Mellisa is an over-achieving dog sitter, who wouldn’t want that! She engaged with our two 5 month pups the whole time and tuckered them out. She sent a handful of photos and a summary of their time together which gave us joy and peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, love animals, provide love and affectionate care for them. Currently care for 1 dog, 6 cats and 6 bunnies. I'm passionate about animal care. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most holidays, or weekends. Enjoy playing and exercising with pets. 🩷💚 I can give plenty of exercise and playtime. I will brush dogs and cats. Love ❤️ to cuddle and comfort them throughout my time with them.

About: I am a recent graduate of UW-River Falls with a bachelor's degree in animal science. Currently, I am working as a veterinary assistant, and have advanced knowledge of dog and cat care. Because of this, I am experienced in pet CPR skills and basic first aid. I started my own pet-sitting business about 5 years ago and have experience with many different temperaments and breeds of dogs. I also have experience pet-sitting cats and horses. Pets are a member of the family and I am willing to go the extra mile to ensure that you are comfortable leaving your animal behind. I love animals and will treat your pets as if they are my own. I am currently working full-time as a veterinary technician during the summer, but have plenty of time before and after work to watch your pets! I also have weekends free which will be dedicated to pet sitting. When watching pets in a client's home, I ensure that the pets as well as the clients get to know me prior to pet sitting. Generally, I like to go to the home ahead of time, to meet my clients and their pets, so they get a chance to know me. I feel this is important because it is vital for clients to know the person they entrust their pets care to. When pet sitting, I try to follow the pet's schedule as close to normal as possible, to reduce their anxiety while their owner is away.

“My fur baby Milo loved his slumber party at home with Catherine. She gave him the VIP treatment: played ball, snuggled with and gave him plenty of belly rubs. Catherine left our house spotless. On top of that we had a large amount of snow accumulate while gone and Catherine shoveled the entire driveway. She gets my five star happy pup approval!”

About: With my off leash wilderness business “Dogonfun Wilderness Adventures” in Oregon I had well more than a decade of the best kind of fun!! I took 8-10 dogs out for hour long runs and watched packs over night while my happy clients enjoyed their vacations. I was known for giving free trainings to new puppy families in the quest that everyone would be successful in their early days of growth as a family leading to well behaved dogs that everyone could enjoy! I also enjoy pet photography and will provide you will Glamour shots of your furry friends while I’m with them ;) I am happy to share my knowledge and love of pups here in Wisconsin, from Shawano to Green Bay and beyond if possible, and look forward to house sitting for you. My work schedule is flexible and allows for the best care of your pets. I can stick closely to the same schedule your pets are used to. Keeping them happy when you are gone is my highest priority! Caring for your animals in your home includes walks, play time and snuggles! I am first aide and CPR trained for both canine and feline and experienced in administering medications when necessary.

“Anita was awesome with my Two Saint Bernards!!”

“Amy was just what we needed for Molly and Arthur! She stayed with them for the whole time we were gone. She’s incredibly intuitive of their personalities and what they need almost immediately! She’s totally focused on our babies needs, playing, exercising and most importantly loving them! We don’t expect newbie’s to be able to walk them both but she volunteered and accomplished it with no problem! Great example of excellent experience we highly recommend!!! Love you Amy! Thank you!”

About: My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have had dogs in my family since I was 10. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so I can work with many other time requests and schedules. I can care for your pet on weekends also. I have a very large yard for your dog to play in and I have 2 friendly dogs to keep them company. I can crate your pet also if needed.

About: I walk, feed, bathe, play, and always give pups lots of attention! Dogs are my favorite and I always enjoy making new dog friends. I enjoy every little thing I get to do with dogs. I don’t work many hours during the week. I am available most days of the week so I am always able to watch dogs when needed. I am home every night so I can watch them overnight. I have a very friendly puppy who loves other dogs and can be around multiple dogs. I always make sure that anyones dog is in a safe environment. I hardly ever leave them unattended and unsupervised. We go for walks very often when it is nice out. I take my puppy outside to go potty at least once an hour if not more. I always make sure everyone is fed and happy.

About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by a variety of pets, and my love for animals has only deepened with each experience. My deep love for pets, combined with my caregiving experience, allows me to approach each animal with the attention and care they need. I am dedicated to ensuring that their health and happiness are prioritized, treating them with the same love and respect as I would my own beloved dog, Buster. I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of pets and their owners! I’m currently getting my Master degree all of my classes are online which allows for my schedule to be flexible. I also caretaker for a girl with Down syndrome which has profoundly shaped my understanding of compassion, patience, and responsibility. This experience has taught me to approach every living being with empathy and respect, ensuring that their needs are always prioritized this is a vital skill in all levels of care taking whether it’s a person or a beloved pet. My own dog also feels like a person sometimes I’d do anything for him! In terms of safety and my home environment, I have an open yard where pets can play and explore freely in a secure setting. My home features two bedrooms, one of which can be designated as a quiet space for pets needing rest or can accommodate their crates if necessary. I also have a medium portable kennel that can be utilized for added comfort and security. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, but I believe in the importance of a proper introduction, so I would like to arrange a meet-and-greet before allowing any animal to stay over. Additionally, I'm more than happy to care for pets in their own homes, ensuring that they receive familiar and loving attention. Your pet's welfare is my top priority, and I am committed to providing a safe and loving environment tailored to their needs.
