“I could not ask for a better experience! I initially selected Terri based on her reviews and she did not disappoint. I realized at our get-acquainted meeting that she was a kind and caring person with a genuine love for animals. I felt I could trust her with the security of my home and care of my 10 year old cat, Spicey. Terri came each day as arranged, and sent thoughtful notes and photos. Not only were the various tasks - feeding etc - done just as we discussed during our brief meeting, but she took time to get to know Spicey, giving her pets, treats, and much needed attention. I was able to enjoy my time away, trusting that all was well at home. I will book Terri again, without hesitation!”
About: I've had pets my whole life, from birds, reptiles, and fish to dogs, cats and rodents, so I know my way around various pets and how to take care of them, as such any special needs won't be too far out of my expertise. When it comes to dogs I've taken two puppies of mine to training classes and am willing to work with whatever training you have in place with your dog, whether that is working on correcting behaviors like jumping or continuing to teach them certain tricks while you're away, I will try my best to make sure they stay on the right track! Cats are the kind of pet I've had for the longest and know the best, even though none of mine so far have been major trouble makers I know how fickle some can be. I'm not afraid to do the occasional litterbox clean if needed or to keep an eye on them during their occasional zoomies. Currently my schedule is pretty flexible, I'm available any day from noon to midnight so if you need someone to check in on your pet overnight I'm available! I'm willing to work with any dietary needs and/or restrictions your pet has and as I've given medications to my pets before I would be able to give your pet any if they needed it during my visit. I'm big into teaching my dogs how to be respectful on a walk so I would be willing to continue any on walk training you may have!
“I liked working with Chloe, she’s super nice and kind. We were able to communicate well and adjust accordingly due to my work schedule changing. She was punctual and my pups liked having her ☺️. I will definitely reach out again in the future. Thank you Chloe”


About: I have worked with pets for over 15 years. Growing up, I had five dogs between two households, and now I have a 2 year old pup of my own! I have lived with dogs of all sizes, ranging from dachshund to golden retriever! Through the years, friends and family have trusted me to exercise, bathe, and feed their pets. I attended puppy training sessions with my corgi and golden retriever, so I have some experience with common skills such as sitting, lying down, and staying in one place. My dogs are my entire world, and I promise to treat your pet as if it were my own. I am currently an unemployed college student, so I have plenty of free-time to spend with your pets. My availability for exercising/taking your pet out throughout the week is as follows: Monday 12-6, Wednesday 9-10 & 2-6, Thursday 11:30-6, Friday 9-6. If you need pet care earlier or later on these days, please reach out and I will do my best to workout a time with you. When I come to pick your dog up for their walk, I will leash them and walk them around an area you desire. Regular collars are fine, but harnesses are even better since they are more secure. I will carry water for your pet, and make sure their water/food bowl is filled upon return. I will spend some time playing with your pet and making sure they are relaxed before I take off. If your dog is crated when you are not home, I will lure them into their crate in whichever way you desire.

About: Nothing is too good for our pets. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for my pets. You can bet, I’ll do the same for yours! Dogs are my specialty but I love them all. I’m currently earning my Dog Obedience Certification from Animal Behavior College. I’m almost finished with school! I currently hold six certifications, including dog walking, pet first aid/CPR, and pet nutrition. My final certification will be in obedience. I’m happy to do whatever your pet needs and what you’re comfortable with. Let them out mid-day, clean up litter boxes, or refill food and water bottles for animals in tanks and cages. I have a little experience with giving some types of medications as well. I’ll throw a ball for your dog, dangle a string for your cat, and help your fish get unstuck from behind the filter.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Friends and family call on me to watch their animals because I am so good natured with them and love teaching trucks and giving baths I currently do not work so I would be available to e other take of your dog during the day in your home or for overnight any day of week I would follow instructions of the pets owner on how they wish their pet to follow the same routine they do on a daily basis

About: I provide reliable, low-stress care for pets, with a strong focus on cats. I understand how important routine and a calm environment are, so I keep visits consistent and respectful of each pet’s space and personality. I work in healthcare, which has made me highly detail-oriented, dependable, and consistent in following routines these are qualities I bring into every visit. Each drop-in visit includes feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning or basic care as needed, and a wellness check. I adjust interaction based on your pet’s temperament, whether they prefer play, a short walk/potty break, or a quieter presence. For dogs needing longer walks or more exercise, I also offer dedicated dog walking services. I focus on clear communication and reliability so you can feel confident your pet is comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I am fully insured for pet care services. I offer drop-in visits during mornings (before work), evenings, and weekends. This is a limited-availability service, allowing me to focus on a small number of clients and provide reliable, consistent care. Visits are scheduled within specific time windows to ensure efficiency and punctuality. I respect each client’s home and follow all instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s routine and comfort. I ensure doors are secured, feeding and litter areas are kept clean, and your pet is safe before leaving each visit. I provide updates after visits so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I have experience in babysitting children. I also take care of Laya our family pet. I also have previous pet sitting experience in Wisconsin. Iny previous experience in Wisconsin, I have asked owners for written instructions on medications, favorite toys, play schedule, vet contacts as well as inquiring about safe ways to enter the house. I have given the quality care for pets including snuggles, walks, and fun games like fetch with their favorite toys and time at the dog park- if permitted by their parents. I am a substitute teacher. I frequently do half days, I'm doing mostly afternoons at my subbing jobs. I am available in the mornings and at 330-8pm for drop in visits and walks I will ask for written instructions on feeding, rules, any medications, and anything else I should know. I will send pictures and videos of what we are doing-walks, how much your pet has eaten, treats, playtime, and playtime.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I rescued my pit mix, Hattie 6 years ago. I also just added Ollie (6 month red heeler mix) to my family from PCH. He started as a foster but grew on us! I still open my house to other fosters, I currently have a 2 month catahoola mix pup until he finds his forever home. I work at Rivian. I am able to stop by early in the morning or in the evenings for walks and feedings. My weekends are opens. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs typically just go out there. My pit mix is a puller so we do not go on many walks but the pup loves walks.
“Erin was wonderful with our cats while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures and let us know they were doing okay, which was so nice. She has extensive experience with animals and we felt more than comfortable with her watching our girls. Highly recommend!”

About: I think one of the main things that would set me apart maybe from others is that I have plenty of time I am extremely patient and I’m actually willing to listen to you and be patient with your animal!! This fits into my schedule because currently I am getting ready to go to my next semester of college as a entrepreneur and I have plenty of time on my hands, I love animals with the patience to understand them and with knowing how to properly take care of animals I know how to properly deal with unsatisfactory behavior with also knowing how to properly reward good behavior along with knowing how to deal with animals around other animals and I’m all around a great choice to watch your best friends! I treat and train my fur babies with respect and of course love them unconditionally and listening to their behavior instead of just acting on impulse and have a stable balance of spending time with my animals and other things.
About: I have had experience with animals pretty much my entire life. From my great grandparents all the way down to my cousins and myself, we all have an enormous amount of love for any animal that we are lucky enough to have as a part of our family. I get the privilege of having two pups at home and they are my babies ❤️ I have 2 pups at home, Knight and Koda. Knight is a lab/beagle mix that I adopted from a shelter and Koda is a purebred German Shepherd. the both love to run and play! We go on 2-6 mile walks every day that I’m not working! I currently am not working so my schedule is very flexible. I’m in school but it’s all online so that also won’t be a problem. I treat other people’s animals the same way that I would want someone to treat my animals. I love all animals and treat them like family.
