Ilene was great! We have a foster cat in quarantine with an infection and wanted someone to spend time with him while we were out of town. Ilene was able to give him some quality time and attention, he was a happy camper. The updates we got were good and the photos were perfect. Thank you!

About: For the last five years, I have worked at zoos, shelters, and sanctuaries with a variety of animals! In the past I have owned reptiles, and I currently own one dog and three cats. Additionally, I usually have at least one foster animal in my care at all times. I understand that each animal is an individual and will adjust my behavior accordingly. I am happy to be active if your dog is a runner, or a couch potato if they're more of a snuggler! I have experience providing medication and special diets. I am currently working with my dog to decrease his reactivity and my cats on harness training! I am more than happy to do any enrichment or training you request with your furry friend! I am currently between jobs and have few set commitments. This allows me to be extremely flexible in my schedule for all your pet care needs! I ensure that in addition to basic necessities, my animals are given physical and mental enrichment each day, whether it's a training session with my dog or a puzzle feeder for the cats. I am more than happy to do the same for your pets!

Travis was great. From the pre-meeting to the follow-up, he was attentive and went beyond expectations. My cat is not the friendliest and despite that, Travis spent time in her presence even when I didn't expect it. He sent me a photo with each visit. I anticipate having him look after Finnoula again in the future.

About: I’ve been a dog lover as long as I can remember! There are photos to prove it! I have experience with all ages and am eager to learn to ensure your fur babies well being. I’m currently working flexible hour jobs so I have the flexibility to work most hours of the day! My current obligations shouldn’t be a problem. I have one friendly cat living with me and live in an area with great parks in walking distance. If needed I can separate them by placing my baby in a separate room.

About: Hello, my name is Elena! I’m a student at UWM currently living in the Downer Woods neighborhood. I always had dogs and cats growing up and have given love and care not only to my pets, but my friend’s pets, including several pet sitting occasions. Being a young adult, I can easily provide as long of a walk as your dog requires and desires, and can also provides lots of snuggles and pets. I currently work as a barista, but am looking to supplement that doing something I love; spending my time with dogs and cats! I enjoy pets of all sizes and ages, and will do my absolute best to provide the best possible care for your furry best friend. I have classes every day of the week around midday but can see your pet before in the morning or later in the afternoon and evening. I’m available weekends! I will respect your space and any wishes you have regarding safety precautions for your animal. I have experience using no pull leashes and muzzles, and understand the importance of taking caution with reactive dogs.

I had the distinct pleasure of being trained by, and working with, Hope at the Wisconsin Humane Society. Hope is proficient in fear-free dog handling, and specializes in leash and dog-reactive dogs. She is courteous, careful and kind. She seeks to understand and empower dogs to make their own choices and feel safe enough to have fun! She is also an excellent carer for all species, and has cared for many complex felines as well as canines. She has cared for my personal pets and is an excellent choice for your animal care needs.
