House Sitting Downer Woods

“Rebecca was phenomenal with my little critters! Excellent communication throughout the week and she was able to adjust last minute to needing to give my dog extra TLC and medication. I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”

Kristina P.

“Carly house sat for me and my one pup with under two days of notice. Great communication and a very sweet person, I would highly recommend her to my family & friends.”

Emma K.

“Max (and Carole!) is fantastic! He's dependable, kind, and Hamlet is always excited to see him. I love that Max is often available if Carole is already booked -- he's just as great, and it feels really good to leave Hamlet with someone I trust!”

Marjory C.

“Jamie is simply fantastic! She keeps our two babies well taken care of - loved, snuggled, and with plenty of walks. She is great at communicating with us when we're away. It's so much easier to travel, knowing all of our furry family members are being treated like royalty!”

Melanie M.

“Elizabeth was wonderful! Our pups were well loved and safe. She was trustworthy and went above and beyond to make sure the house was left in excellent condition. We look forward to having her back.”

Kimberly P.

“Mikalanne was great with my senior pups who are definitely creatures of habit. Active communication is so reassuring when I have to be away from my pet family. Highly recommend.”

Jessica P.

“The best Rover sitter I have had. Communicative, clean, great with Gertie, and an all around kind, responsible, and trustworthy person. Thank you Acacia! It means the world to me 🥰”

Naomi S.

“Cathy was fantastic! She was very easy to work with, and very friendly to our dog, Joey. You can tell she has plenty of experience with pets. We definitely plan on hiring her again!”

Adam B.

“Ashley took absolutely excellent care of our cat while we were out of the country for a week! I knew from the moment she met our cat during our meet and greet that our little girl was going to be in great hands. Throughout the trip, Ashley reached out with check-ins and photos reflecting how well she was being taken care of. She also responded quickly to any messages and went above and beyond watching our place. We (and our cat) look forward to seeing her again in the future!”

Jeremiah W.

“Our family had recently experienced a loss of our other pet. It was a tough time for travel but Jessica supported our other pet while we were away. She kept us informed and made the world of difference being away during such a difficult time.”

Carlie V.

“While Evita watched our pup Molly overnight at our house, she was punctual and communicated well. She also took Molly on a nice long walk each day that pleasantly tuckered her out. Molly seemed calm and happy when we returned home.”

Alia E.

“Lack of communication from another sitter left us scrambling for a pet sitter 1 week before we were leaving town. David answered my request within minutes and immediately set up a meet & greet. He did everything we asked him to do and kept us informed with notes. We recommend and would use him again.”

Katalina J.

“Keisha was great! She watched our 2 doodles, one with a bit of an attitude! She sent texts when she had questions and sent us pictures. Will definitely book with her again!”

Marie G.

“Alhana was great with Coco. My little dog was recovering from knee surgery and she followed instructions beautifully for he night I had to be away. Thank you!”

Christine H.

“Simon was great. I appreciated all the communication ahead of time and while he was dogsitting.”

Kristin S.

“Carrianne housesat with Rosie and Leo, who can be a handful. She was wonderful, taking the dogs for several walks and keeping me informed about how things were going. She is responsible, thoughtful, attentive and flexible, and she knows dogs! Highly recommended.”

About: I was a kennel worker for three years through high school and college, taking care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with anxious, aggressive and hyperactive dogs. I’ve been taking care of family and neighbors dogs since I was little. In fact, my first job was walking the neighbor’s dog for 5 dollars a week! I’m also a cat dad to two lovely cats, with experience cat sitting for family and friends as well. I’m a part time employee so I’m free to walk or dog/cat sit during the day on weekdays. I have some availability on weekends, but coach baseball so it depends on that schedule. I have experience working with anxious and nervous pets and will create a calm and safe environment when I come to your home. I have no problem crating dogs or administering medication to pets even if anxious/aggressive.

About: With a lifelong love for dogs and hands-on experience at my local grooming shop, I’ve cared for pups of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From baths and basic grooming to caring for energetic puppies and senior dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making every pup feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every dog like my own! I’m a full-time college student, but I have a flexible routine and weekends available for pet care. I’m naturally active and take walks regularly, so having a furry companion along is always a bonus! I also pet sit as a side job, volunteer with cats whenever I can, and am involved with UWM’s animal rescue and education club. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my weekly routine. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client’s, my priority is their well-being and comfort. I ensure they are well-fed with nutritious meals and have ample time outdoors to play and relieve themselves. Creating a comfortable environment is key so they are familiarized with both myself and their surroundings, ensuring they feel safe and relaxed. With a blend of care, attention, and love for animals, I create an environment where pets thrive and feel at home

About: I have experience dog sitting over multiple days on several occasions. I’ve cared for Great Danes, Chihuahuas, and a pug, and grew up with family dogs including a Sheltie, Australian Shepherd, and rescue Pit Bull/Boxer mix. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m currently attending UWM, my schedule has some good-sized gaps between classes, which gives me flexibility during the week for drop ins or walks. I’m also generally free Friday through Sunday I provide care in the client’s home and will follow their instructions and their pet’s normal routine. I’ll keep pets safe and supervised, respect their space, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and care.

About: I have had all sorts of pets since I was a kid - dogs, cats, fish, hamsters - so I understand body language and can know what your animal needs/wants based off that. I also worked at PetSmart, during which I was tasked with taking care of our cats and hamsters; therefore, I have ample experience with a variety of pets needs and personalities. I am currently a student, so my schedule is odd but I have plenty of time to come visit your pets or house sit! I am free everyday mainly midday and in the evening, but I can fit early morning visits as well. I can do any necessary task, be it bathing your pets, walking them, or simply feeding them and letting them out. I will also make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me before moving forward with care.
