Dog Sitting Cross Plains

“Annalesse was very responsive when setting up the booking and exchanging keys, and she took great care of my cats while I was gone for about two weeks!”

About: I’ve worked at Feeder’s Supply, where I cared for a variety of animals and regularly bathed dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My experience there helped me build strong skills in animal handling and care. I’ve also owned many types of pets over the years and currently have two cats of my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, bathing, or just giving them love and attention, I’m passionate about making sure every animal feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently spend most of my time caring for my daughter and cats, but am looking to share my love with other animals in need of care while their parents are busy! This can include regular services Monday to Saturday between 8:15 am and 4:45 pm; if you need something outside of this, message me and we’ll see what we can work out! For dogs, any equipment must be provided by you to ensure I am using leashes, toys, etc. that fit your pet and they are comfortable with. For cats, I can provide a cat harness or stroller to take them outside in a controlled environment for extra enrichment. I also have a set of cat toys to bring if needed.

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your fur babies. I currently have my sweet girl Nova at home and am comfortable with pets of different temperaments and needs. I strive to create a safe, stress free experience while keeping owners updated with lots of photos and messages. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a consistent routine, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care. I’m currently a SAHM with a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the day. Your pets are treated like family! I have 1 cat in my home currently that is okay with dogs that visit. I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment and carefully supervise interactions at all times.

About: I’m a passionate dog lover who believes pets are family. As a dog owner for over four years, I understand the care, attention, and love our furry friends need every day. Whether you need help with walks or companionship for your pet, I’m committed to providing reliable and caring support. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities and look forward to helping keep your pet happy, safe, and active! While I am looking for a new full time job, I have a lot of availability for anyone needing some help. Would be open to daily walks or as needed. I would care for any pet like they are my own! I am extremely protective of my dog and would only want the best for her and I would offer the same level of care for your pet, too!

“Laura did a wonderful job of caring for our kitty while we were away and provided some bonus help for us like getting the mail and watering our flower pots! We appreciate her help so much!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, my father was a veterinarian. I love being around and interacting with dogs because of how affectionate they are. I've taken care of family and friends pets for over 20 years and am willing to allow your pet to stay in their home where they are most comfortable while you are away. I am currently retired and open for whatever your needs are, 7 days of the week. I am open to staying at your home any day of the week as needed, or for drop in visits during the day. I will follow your instructions on how to care for your pet in your home to keep their schedule as consistent as possible. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and letting them play and relax.

About: Dogs are a huge part of my life! Before moving to Wisconsin, I owned and operated a dog walking and overnight boarding business in Maryland for two years. These days, I spend much of my time fostering dogs for a local rescue, helping them decompress, learn home life, and get ready for their forever families. With three personal dogs, I’m very comfortable managing a multi-dog household and all the different personalities that come with it. I’ve cared for everything from energetic, playful pups to seniors who prefer a cozy spot on the couch, as well as rescue dogs who need extra patience, structure, or time to feel comfortable. Fostering has taught me that there really isn’t a “one size fits all” approach to dogs. I pay close attention to body language, respect boundaries, make thoughtful introductions, and adjust my approach based on what each individual dog needs. I also know how hard it can be to leave your dog behind and wonder how they’re doing. You can expect daily updates from me, including plenty of photos and videos, so you can see how your dog is settling in and what they’ve been up to. My goal is to give your dog a safe, comfortable, fun place to stay—and give you the peace of mind that they’re with someone experienced, attentive, and who truly gets dogs. Pet care fits very naturally into my everyday life. I’m a stay-at-home mom to a middle schooler and work remotely part-time, which means I’m home quite a bit and have plenty of flexibility to give the animals in my care lots of attention, love, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and downtime. With three resident dogs—a 70 lb senior mix, a 2-year-old Boston Terrier, and a 1-year-old English Bulldog/French Bulldog mix—and all three started out as fosters who never left! I continue to foster regularly and work very closely with a local dog rescue, so welcoming another dog into our routine is something the dogs are very accustomed to. Dogs staying with us aren't spending the day alone waiting for someone to come home from work. I'm around throughout the day to keep an eye on everyone, accommodate individual routines, and provide plenty of attention (or a cozy place to nap, if that's more their speed!). Pet care is genuinely part of my everyday life, and I love it that way. Here, pets are treated like part of the family. My dogs are kennel trained, but they're also welcome throughout the home—including on the furniture and beds. I'm happy to follow your lead, though! If your dog sleeps in a crate, follows certain house rules, eats on a specific schedule, or isn't allowed on furniture at home, I'll do my best to keep their routine consistent. I live in a large apartment, so all outdoor time is supervised and on leash. I'm very comfortable with puppies and their extra needs, including frequent potty breaks, potty pads, crate training, and the general chaos that comes with puppyhood! I have extra crates that can accommodate dogs up to approximately 75–80 lbs, plus more dog beds and toys than any household probably needs. If your pet has food or environmental allergies, please let me know. I am very accustomed to managing allergies and am happy to follow specific instructions regarding food, treats, medications, or environmental triggers. Because your dog will share our home with my husband, middle-school-aged child, and our three resident dogs, dogs staying with us must be comfortable with older children, men, and other dogs. I take introductions and dog body language seriously and want every animal in the house—yours and mine—to feel safe and comfortable. While others do live in the home, I will be the caregiver for any other animals. For care in your home, I'll follow your lead. You know your pets and their routine best, and my goal is to keep things as familiar and consistent as possible while you're away. I'm also happy to care for more than just dogs during in-home visits—cats and other household pets are welcome, too! Whether your pet stays with us or I care for them in their own home, I'll treat their individual routine as exactly that: individual. Some pets want to be your shadow, some want nonstop playtime, and some would prefer that I serve dinner promptly and otherwise respect their personal space. I'm good with all three!

“I reached out to Nicole last minute on a Saturday night looking for someone to watch my dog Finley since I was in town visiting. She responded instantly and Finley was so excited to go over there. He got along well with her dog and came home happy and ready to snuggle. Finley says “4/4 Paws! Would visit again””

About: I'm usually always the go-to person when it comes to caring for family and friends pets when they go out of town and I absolutely love it! As a college student I don't have much time to have my own companion right now, but being able to have the responsibility for short periods of time fills up my doggy bucket :) I'm currently in college, so my schedule can be more flexible. Pet care allows me to still work during the school year while having flexibility to work when I’m able and to still put much of my attention towards school. In-home pet care to me involves maintaining routines through consistent feeding, exercise, and health monitoring. I prioritize home security, clear communication with owners, and a clean environment to ensure safety and comfort for all the doggies.

About: I have been surrounded by and have taken care of dogs since getting my family’s two dogs when I was around 11 or 12 years old. Even since moving out, my family has relied on me to take care of them on vacations, extended work trips, etc. I now have two cats of my own, and love any opportunity to meet new animals. I am currently traveling the country, and looking to explore new places! I’ve found that pet-sitting is an excellent way to do so, with the side bonus of getting to meet new furry friends along the way! I am very intentional about adapting to each pet’s individual needs - whether they’re a fast friend or needs some space to figure me out first, my top priority is establishing trust with your fur baby. From there, I can ensure that I give them the proper love and care they deserve.

“We had a great experience with Abigail taking care of our two senior dogs over Memorial Day weekend! She was communicative, prompt, and consistently checked in when questions came up. We really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to accommodate our dogs’ individual needs and quirks. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in reliable and attentive hands while we were away. We’d absolutely book with her again!”

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and truly treat every pet as if they're my own. I grew up around horses and farm animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to confidently care for animals with different personalities and needs. In addition to caring for larger animals, I have years of experience with cats, dogs, puppies, and senior pets. As a cat mom myself, I understand how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone you trust. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I tailor my care to their unique personality and routine. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to details like feeding schedules, medications, exercise, litter box care, and reinforcing any training routines you've established. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving lots of love and attention. I have experience caring for pets in both my own home and clients' homes, and I'm happy to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. Whether you need daily walks, drop in visits, overnight care, or extended stays, I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I currently work part-time and bartend a few evenings each week, so I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate many pet care needs. I'm available for morning and afternoon walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week, with open availability on most weekends. On days I bartend, I'm happy to work around my shift to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. I always communicate my availability in advance and make it a priority to give every pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. You'll also receive regular photo updates and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away!! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I take the time to learn their needs and follow your instructions closely. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, reinforcing training, or making sure they get plenty of exercise and affection, I'll care for them just as you would. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I always double-check doors, gates, leashes, and any safety concerns before and after each visit. Having over four years of professional pet & house sitting experience, along with growing up around farm animals, I'm comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and quick responses while you're away. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and completely at ease from the moment we meet!!

“Incredible care of our kitty! So so grateful for her.”

About: Eric and Rachel share a love for their beloved Aussie-beagle Lilo and fostering rescue dogs together. We know that it is never easy to leave your beloved dog with someone new, and in a new place. As our own Lilo has struggled with separation anxiety before, we know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is present, patient, and able to cater their care towards a dog’s specific needs. Rachel has taken care of 6 different family dogs growing up, including a border collie, golden retriever, Boston terrier, 2 mixed breeds and a silky terrier. Eric has taken care of his family dog (chihuahua mix) since birth till now (11 years old). Together, we have fostered 16 rescue dogs these past two years, ranging from a high energy Great Pyrenees to 3 Border Collie puppies all at once, to a completely afraid and anxious Beagle mama and Shiba Inu mama that are recovering from very difficult situations. We have also looked after American pit bulls, a large Newfoundland, and senior doggies who have hip difficulties and special diets. Our own dog is a 3.5 year old Aussie-beagle, so we particularly love the herding dogs. :) We both have lots of experience working with dogs of all kinds of temperaments and needs, especially high energy dogs who require a lot of attention and care, and administering medication to dogs who have special needs. Rachel also loves cooking her home cooked meals for her dog, and can do that for yours too, if you need! We both work from home and have all weekends free. Our flexible schedules together allows us to bring dogs regularly on walks and to look after them consistently. We follow instructions really well, and can take care of your dog according to your requirements. We allow dogs to roam and sleep freely in our home, but we can also crate your dog easily if you prefer. We know how to work with your dog with lots of gentle care and love.

About: I have experience pet sitting for dozens of families across several states and am passionate about caring for others beloved pets. I am trustworthy, communicative, and responsible and will meet your pets needs to perfection. I am currently working full time as a social worker but am able to before and after work and have a lot of flexibility on weekends. I appreciate being able to speak with you prior to beginning services so I can get to know your pet and their specific needs. I ensure that clients pets and my own pets have a safe home with consistency. I know each pet has their own needs or preferences and enjoy molding my work with them to meet those requirements.

“Excellent dog care and great communication. Thank you!”

About: I’ve cared for cats for 3 years and have been a devoted parent to a monk parakeet and guinea pigs and two orange cats. Since childhood, I’ve looked after hamsters, gaining experience with different animal personalities and needs. Friends and family know me as a kind and loving pet sitter they can trust to provide attentive care, from feeding and cleaning to playtime and companionship. I’m a full-time employee, but my schedule is flexible. I’m available on weekends, as well as before 9 a.m. and after 5 p.m. on weekdays for pet care. I don’t have any plants in my home, providing a calm and safe space for your pet. This allows me to give them my full attention, keep the environment clean, and ensure their comfort and security while you’re away.

“Jenna was an absolute lifesaver helping us out last minute without ever having met our pups before. She was super communicative and was able to navigate everything with no issues. Can’t wait to have her spend more time with us!”
