House Sitting in Avon

About: I grew up with dogs and cats. As an adult, I’ve always had cats and other critters. My animals tend to live very long, loving lives. I have summers off, so I have quite a bit of availability part of the year. I’m an early riser, so can do mornings easily. Most evenings I’m available for care, walks or feedings. We live on a highway, so our animals have always been inside. The cats usually have free rein of the house and our enclosed deck is sometimes a place they like to be.

“Meg did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Lux, at my venue on my wedding day. She was great to work with and very responsive throughout the entire process. She even took some cute photos of him in his wedding attire! From the moment I met her, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry about a thing. Meg went above and beyond, and I truly could not recommend her enough!”

“This was the second time Ivy watched our dog Stanley for us while we were out of town. She once again did an awesome job. She gave him his meds, walked him when weather permitted and gave him lots of cuddles. She sent daily pictures so that we knew all was well. She also kept a close eye on our house and alerted us to a bird mite infestation by our front door that may have gone unnoticed for quite a while as we don’t regularly use that door. If you choose Ivy to care for your fur babies, you can relax knowing she will give them quality care and attention.”

About: Hi! I’m Kasi and I live in Mineral Point, WI I've grown up with pets my entire life. After losing my dog Lacey in 2021, it's felt quite strange not having a pet close by. I've taken care of both dogs and cats for over 4 years. Neighbors family and friends have counted on me to walk, feed, and make sure they go to the bathroom. I also work part time at a local pet daycare center so I've gotten to know pets very quickly. Each pet I've cared for has left their pawprint on my heart in some way shape or form-and forever will! I currently work remotely in Mineral Point, and also work full time for a non profit organization. I am able to stop by if you ever need me to. I have stayed at family homes to provide care for pets. I adhere to any instructions provided by each pet owner to ensure they maintain the same schedule before, during and after my stay. I ensure to maintain constant communication with pet owners, and let them know how their pet is doing.

About: I have several years of experience caring for many different types of animals. I have been a cat owner my whole life, so am very comfortable caring for cats (indoor or outdoor) in any capacity. I have previous experience dog-sitting for both small and large dogs, as well as senior dogs. I have experience providing drop-in visits for potty breaks, walks, feedings, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications, playtime, extra cuddles, as well as staying overnight to provide daily care for pets whose owners are out of town for multiple days. I also have some experience checking in and feeding farm animals such as chickens, guineas, farm cats, and cows. I am a big animal lover that has been around animals my whole life. I would love to give you peace of mind when you are away from home to know your pets are being looked after and well cared for! Currently a full-time college student and working part time in the Madison area. I have a flexible schedule so can do drop-in visits or stay overnight with pets if you live within a decent commuting distance to Madison. Comfortable caring for many different types of animals. I can provide most anything from a quick check-in, to an overnight stay if feasible. I am able to provide walks or outdoor time for dogs, comfortable cleaning litter boxes or other pet cages, and can even administer medications if needed too.

About: I’ve constantly been surrounded by all kinds of animals throughout my life. I especially love cats as I have 2 of my own but will spread the love to even reptiles! My past experience includes years of dog sitting for a family friend, for stays up to 2 weeks long. The dogs were also older so I had to accommodate their needs as well. I walked, fed, pet, and played with them all while maintaining as similar of a schedule that I could for their comfort. I am unemployed until the summer, when I will be working full-time, so I’m constantly home! My cats are fed around the clock three different times so I’m here for that. I just go to classes for a few hours in the middle of the day and come right home. I am a student who lives in a 2 bedroom apartment with my boyfriend so we have a spare room to cater towards your fur baby in our space. For client’s homes, I always follow instructions given to provide the utmost comfort and familiarity for your pet.

About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for over 15 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pups. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered at local animal shelters, where I helped walk, feed, and socialize dogs from all backgrounds. I'm comfortable with a variety of breeds and activity levels, and I always tailor my approach to each dog’s individual needs, whether it’s a long walk for an active dog, playtime and enrichment for a curious pup, or calm companionship for an older one. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, safe, and loved. I don't have much experience with cats but am eager to learn and help any cat parent that needs it. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to check on or walk pets during the day or anytime during the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m walking your dog, visiting for a drop in, or staying in your home, I make sure each pet feels relaxed, secure, and loved. During walks, I always use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and surroundings. For drop in visits, I follow your routine for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things consistent and stress free. When staying in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep everything clean and tidy while maintaining your pet’s usual schedule.

“HIRE CHRIS. I won the lottery with him. It was my first time using Rover. I have a special needs rabbit who needed a caretaker after a rabbit boarding service was no longer available. I messaged several sitters and Chris was the first to respond. He is responsive and communicative. What I absolutely love about Chris, among many things, is that he asks questions. Not in a "what do I do" kind of way. Rather, "how do I do this to make sure it's done correctly". My special needs rabbit is on a specialized diet. I left Chris with instructions, which he followed to a tee, but he also sent a photo of the food. (My rabbit is feed very soft, watered down pellets and Critical Care due to recent dental surgery). I'm happy that he did because my rabbit can't chew on pellets. He sent lots of photos of Moo, too. Chris was also flexible with the initial meet 'n' greet appointment and visiting my landlord's office to pick up my front door key (which has to be loaned out). One of the reasons I chose Chris was his close proximity to my apartment. I will 5000% hire Chris again for my rabbit sitting needs. He took great care of my very special needs rabbit and Moo liked him too! I recommend him for your pet sitting needs, including small mammals!”

“Lensy was amazing with my two pups, including meds, walks, and lots of love and attention, which is what they need. She’s great with communication and updates, and took excellent care of my two doggos!”

“Leanne was amazing! She watched our dog while we were on vacation out of the country. Everyday we received a few pictures and text messages about how he was doing. Charlie fell in love with her daughter and I think that bond helped him stay calm when we were away. I highly recommend Leanne for watching your animals! She did everything we asked of her and our little fur baby came home happy and excited to see us! He even whines when leaving Leanne’s house! Can’t wait to have her watch him again!”
