Pet Sitting Cooper Park

“Michelle easily gets a five star review. I just moved to the area and was nervous about leaving my dog alone but Michelle has made the transition so easy. She is wonderful with my boy. She is excellent with communicating and sends the best updates. 10 times out of 10, I’m picking Michelle.”

“I’ve had a great experience with Ana! My dogs liked her immediately during our meet and greet, and I could tell she knew her way around bigger dogs. Communication was super straightforward and fast - she even asked how often I want updates, which I really appreciate. Ramses was very relaxed when I came home after Ana’s visit. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: I’ve been looking after fluffy frens of all shapes and sizes from a young age. My time doing a full house/dog sitting gig was for my grandparents and their French bulldog, Sugar (miss you, Sugs!). Since then I have been the go-to for my friends and family for taking care of their for legged family. I make sure your fury family gets the love and care they need, whether you just have one smol dog or a pack of greyhounds. I currently had a stretch of rough health luck, but my ails are your pups gain! I’m currently on the mend, and it’s going well, but between jobs, so my schedule is wide open. I’ll have the time to give your pups the TLC they deserve! Currently unavailable to board pets at my house, but I will make sure to treat all pets in a safe and caring way. I’ll treat them like a newborn baby, because hey, in a way they are!

“Kelsey responds quickly. She sends photos and clear information about her visit. My pets are all comfortable with her! She is flexible and able to accommodate specific requests or preferences easily!”

Becky W.

“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”

About: What sets me apart is real, everyday experience — I'm currently raising two young Dobermans at home, so I understand the exercise, training, and attention that active breeds need. Before them, I have had past dog-sitting work, means I can confidently handle puppies still learning the ropes as well as older dogs who just want a calm, reliable presence. I treat every dog in my care like part of the family. I am currently a medical student so I am able to care for pets throughout the day on weekdays during months where I have more free time. On walks, I will focus on safety and your dog's comfort. I will make sure to check the leashes before heading out, walk at a pace tailored to their energy and age, and remain alert to the surroundings. For home check-ins, I follow your care instructions exactly (feeding, water, meds, routine) and make sure your pet gets attention and affection while you're away. I will send photo updates and treat your home with care and respect, just as I would my own.

“I felt very comfortable with Lainie caring for Trixie while I'm at work from day one. She's so great with her! She sends adorable pictures of Trixie and receiving them are the best part of my work day!”

About: I've had multiple dogs over the last 30 years. Mainly Bull Mastiffs, Border Collie Mix, and multiple Pitties. We lately have been adopting older dogs to give them the best end of life possible. For friends I've watched many smaller to larger dogs, comfortable with all. I have experience with all sorts of meds and care, although I prefer to stay away from anything with needles when possible. We've been to the vet more times than I can count, and have gotten good at understanding/reading dog behavior and signs of distress. I have experience with all soft of personalities...shy or alpha, lazy or rambunctious, etc. I like to understand them and work with them where they are at so they enjoy themselves and are happy. I'm a pretty calm presence and in general dogs trust me right away. My wife will joke that I am a dog whisperer as dogs tend to follow my lead easily, but I think it is simply being confident and projecting that you are there to take care of them. I have a very flexible work schedule and am home most of the time. I only have 1 dog right now (Oscar, 82 lb Pitty who loves everything and everyone...he walks around with soft toys like they are his dolls), but will likely be back to 2 in the near future. I walk my pup(s) pretty much every day. We live near Hart Park and the Oak Leaf Trail so getting out to walk along the river/parks is very easy. New to doing this formally rather than just for friends. Normally watch friends dogs at their place. If we take care of your pup in our home, we will always have 1+ pups that will be other-dog friendly. My wife and I have a small Tosa home but fully fenced-in yard to be able to let them out at any time day or night without worry. We have a small main floor but it has 3-4 dog beds and multiple toys (prefer dogs who are ok with soft toys, as our pup(s) don't rip those up. Will likely prefer caring for your pup in your home, it simply mitigates the crowding in the house and any potential conflicts. If I look after any cats, those would be at your house. We no longer have cats and aren't prepped for that in any way.

“Holly has been amazing with my boy Teddy. Definitely recommend.”

“Emily took great care of my three kitties while I was gone. She was wonderful at communicating and following the instructions I left. The litter area is clean and she watered my plants! I highly recommend her for your pet care. A+++”

Virginia I.

“Nevaeh was great with our shy girl! She was so patient and willing to give our sweet pup time to warm up. I definitely recommend her!”

Natalie P.

“Liz is my first choice for looking after my cats when I'm away, especially for a long trip. She takes great care of them, sends lovely updates, and is careful to note changes that she sees with them. Highly recommend!”

Rebecca R.

“Emily is a great sitter for my dog Scout! We've been working together for about a year, and she's able to handle senior/disabled dog issues, including lifting/carrying paralyzed dog & dealing with potty issues that occur when Scout is alone.”

“Thanks”

“Chris was awesome with dropping in to check on our cat. Had a last minute emergency and he was able to fill in. He communicated well and was able to rearrange his schedule to make it work. Would reach out again with no second thoughts!”

“Thank you so much Erica for taking care of our Luna while we were out of town. Our Luna is a bit anxious but Erica gave her time and patience until she came around. She loved her belly rubs! We appreciate you and definitely recommend!”

About: I have three years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, from energetic pups to laid-back senior cats. Whether it’s a lively game of fetch or a quiet cuddle session, I provide the care and attention your pet deserves. I’m committed to keeping them happy, healthy, and loved! My focus is on creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every pet I care for. I’ve worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, so I’m adaptable to your pet’s unique needs. From long walks to belly rubs (or just hanging out with cats who prefer their own space), I bring patience, reliability, and plenty of love to the table! Pet care is a big part of my day! 🐾 Since I’m home full-time, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friends. From morning walks 🌅 to midday play sessions 🐕 and evening snuggles 🛋️, I’m here to keep them happy, active, and loved every step of the way! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort in both my home and yours! 🏡 While I don’t have a fenced backyard, I make up for it with a large park nearby and a fenced dog area for plenty of safe playtime 🐾. At home, your pet will enjoy a cozy, loving environment with lots of space to relax or run around. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or a fun time in the dog park, your pet will be active, entertained, and safe every step of the way!

About: While I don't own a pet I lived with pets almost my whole life until buying a home for myself. While I wait until the right pet comes along in my life I'll happily care for yours! Living near the Hank Aaron Trail allows plenty of time for walks or runs around the neighborhood. If your pet isn't a fan of long walks or runs that's okay, too! Couch time is always something to look forward to with a friendly dog as well. Happy to follow any and all rules owners have while going the extra mile to make sure your pet feels cared for every day I take care of them. Look no further for someone to dedicate their time for your pet than my home. I work full time in the Milwaukee area but am usually not gone for longer than 8.5 or 9 hours at a time. I make time right away in the morning and immediately after work to care for any of the pets that I am watching. If your pet is active I'll happily take it out for runs around the trail or make time to play with it either in my yard or at the park near me. I will happily take the time to play with your pet outside or just let it roam around and do its business if that is what your pet prefers. There aren't many dogs in the area that are out and about to worry about. I don't have a pet of my own that you need to worry about your pet being comfortable with, either. I work full time Monday to Friday and am gone for 8.5-9 hours at most. I make time in the mornings and after work to take dogs out for walks and regular exercises as needed. My schedule typically revolves around the dog I’m watching. While sitting dogs I make them my priority and try to give them as much attention as they desire or you would at your home. There are parks and open fields nearby to play in and plenty of sidewalks to roam and get a leisurely walk in.

“We just had Dave over for the first time to walk our dog who can sometimes be a little nervous when new people come to the home. He was wonderful with him and sent lots of photos during the visit. Communication was great throughout the process and we would not hesitate to have him back.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, especially larger breeds, and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve personally owned two Pit Bulls, one weighing 70 pounds and the other 132 pounds, along with a Pomeranian, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels! My family has always had larger dogs and has trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’ve also helped friends with cat sitting, so my love and experience extend beyond just dogs! For the past year and a half, I’ve been a stay-at-home mom, which has taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and maintaining a loving, attentive environment. I understand that pets are family, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d give my own pets! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week, including weekdays and could be flexible depending on weekends. I’m happy to provide dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. My 1½-year-old would accompany me during visits, so I ask that pets be comfortable and safe around young children. I understand how important it is to find someone dependable to care for your furry family members, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving, and attentive care while working around your pet’s individual routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! While I do not offer pet care in my own home, I’m more than happy to provide care in the comfort of yours, where your pets can remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, as well as smaller dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality, needs, and boundaries, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Since my young child accompanies me, I only accept pets that are comfortable around toddlers. I prioritize safe interactions, close supervision, and respecting each animal’s personal space. I’m also happy to follow any specific feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, or special instructions you provide. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are receiving dependable, compassionate care while you’re away!
