“Janet simply put, was amazing. This was the first time that our boys had someone else stay with them. We were of course a little apprehensive but Janet made us and the boys secure right from the start. We had an initial meeting that went very well and the 10 night stay went even better. Janet was tasked with taking care of our dog Duffy who is an epileptic and who had seizures and a vet visit on the day that we were leaving. She made us feel very relieved that the orders from the vet would be carried out...they were. She also took excellent care of the house. She was terrific at keeping us updated during our trip with many pictures and news from home. We could not have been any happier with her stay. The only problem is that someone who does such a good job is in high demand and unfortunately (for us) she is already booked during a time period when we again need a sitter. I can assure you that you will not be disappointed having Janet take care of your pets.”

About: Hi there! My name is Michelle and Ive been a pet owner since I was a child. My family always had dogs, cats, pocket pets, and the occasional tarantula. Im the niece of a large animal veterinarian whose clinic I volunteered at after school and summers. Currently my husband and I are owned by a Labrador Retriever and an English Setter. We are active with a national English Setter rescue, which is where our beautiful boy came from, and run volunteer transports of dogs on their way to foster or forever homes. Im semi-retired! My routine is whatever it needs to be from day to day. Im a firm believer in being flexible to meet the situation's needs. Your pets would never be alone. We also have 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company and walks, along with outdoor play would help with mental stimulation.
“Desiree has been the biggest delight to work with. Her communication is impeccable. Any questions I have asked she has responded immediately answering all questions and then some. We could enjoy our time away with family knowing our babies were in good hands. She kept me updated as to how they were throughout. We were so pleased that we have already booked our next visit.”

“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”

“Emma is amazing! I was so nervous leaving my anxious dog for vacation. Emma took care of three of my dogs and gave me daily updates and photos. She took great care of them. They loved having her stay with them. She even bought them bones, which was so sweet. Finally, she went above and beyond and cleaned my house and linens as well! I can’t wait to have her back next month for my next vacation. I’m definitely not nervous for this one!”

About: Hello, my name is Taryn. I’ve had plenty of experience taking care of dogs as I have had dogs my whole life. Since middle school, I have been pet-sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. Not only have I had pet sitting experience with dogs, I have taken care of other animals as well. Those animals range from cats, bunnies, fish, and even chickens ! I will be able to provide you and your pets with the services you need! I just graduated from UW-Stout and am currently living in Eau Claire. I work at my main job on weekdays (in Menomonie). My hours vary, but they are usually only 7 hour shifts or less. I am available all day on Saturdays and Sundays unless I already have another gig booked. I am able to provide your pet with whatever service they need, ranging from making sure they have enough food and water to taking them on walks and providing them with entertainment! I am available for dog walking and drop-ins before 5pm on Mondays, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, and after 5pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. As for house-sitting, I am available most days as long as your pet is okay with being alone for a few hours! I attend in-person classes Tuesdays and Thursdays, but would have an hour or two to come back to the house to check in! I currently do not offer doggy day care in my own home, but I will be able to keep your dogs company at their respective homes. I can walk them, feed them, play with them, keep them company, and more!
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits and fish over the years. Personally, I’ve owned dogs, cats, and rabbits myself. Most notably I’ve cared for small breed dogs but I have plenty of experience with large breeds. Currently I’m waiting on starting my new job so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Though I prefer overnighting or afternoon/evening care, I can do days as well. I can not care for pets in my own home. I live in an apartment and have little room for a pet to move around.
About: I have taken care of dogs for my friends for many years, as well as having dogs for most of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages. I have experience in medication dispensing. Senior care experience. I work from my home so I am available to give meals and potty breaks continuously throughout the day. I have a very flexible schedule. For drop in visiting and walks, I am available Monday to Thursday 1pm to 7pm. Friday after 5pm. Saturday and Sunday 24 hour availability. My back yard is fenced in.I will not sit pitbulls or other aggressive breeds. On days where the temp is hot, I will take dogs out once an hour for just 10 minutes to avoid heat related illness.
