“I cannot say enough great things about Jack… His professionalism is top-notch, and his care for my two dogs could not have been better. He kept them on their routine with feeding and medicine, he was great, giving them daily exercise and care, and he just literally checks every box perfectly, and I felt lucky to have him as did my dogs”
“Hayley did a great job with our girls. I can always tell when they are well cared for because when we come home they barely notice we are gone. And they let us know if they are not! :) Hayley kept me well informed and sent pictures. Definitely recommend!”
“Brandi is absolutely the best, wonderful with our two dogs, and consistently winning over our high anxiety and shy lil’ baby. We highly recommend Brandi if you are looking for a reliable dog sitter with heart.”
About: I have had a pitbull dog for 10 years and provided care for her until the end of her life. I also have experience with other dog breeds and have studied pet care. i’m currently working part time so i’m very flexible with time and providing care during those hours. I’m usually able to work around my schedule for exceptional care for your pets! :) I can provide any care you need as long as you provide a thoroughly list of details and time for if and when your pet needs care and what exactly you expect.
“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”
About: My lifelong love of dogs has turned into an opportunity to help others by caring for your furry friends in my home. I ❤️ dogs! With my part-time schedule I have am able to spend plenty of time at home with furry friends of all sizes. I am flexible to care for dogs during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have extra crates if that would be more convenient for you.
About: I frequently pet sit for my both my sisters and parents animals. One was a siberian husky, another is a dachsund/terrier mix and the others were a mixed hound breed and a poodle/bichon frise. I also petsit and did overnight visits with a previous professors golden retriever and golden/Irish setter mix. I own a small mixed breed dog (similar to a Jack russell)Russell, and grew up with a Brittany Spaniel and a West Highland White Terrier. I also have frequent contact with my boyfriends parents dogs: a dachshund, and a cattle dog. I work part-time currently, and am scheduled Wed, Thurs, and Fri, and the occasional Saturday. I am available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and mornings on Wed, and Thurs. I currently live in a condo so my small dog is ideal for the space. Since my dog is reactive to other dogs, I would be doing only clients homes overnights, visits, and walks.
“Mary is the BEST dog sitter! I know when she is here my dogs are getting treated like they are on a vacation as well. She is thoughtful and incredibly considerate. Our dogs love Mary!”
“Hannah was sensational! She was lovely and patient with Bert and kept us in the loop regarding Bert all weekend. She was great with sending pictures and had details notes for us regard his time with her. I was so at ease knowing Bert was in Hannah’s care. I will most certainly be booking with her again!! Thanks Hannah!!!”
“Incredible. Simply incredible. We had an emergency during Foles’ stay, but she handled it with such grace and kept us updated throughout the entire event. She took exceptional care of both dogs - I swear they miss her more now than they missed us while we were away. Very excited to continue our training with Foles to promote a more calming and nurturing environment with our furry family. Cannot thank her enough for everything!”
“Chirelle was outstanding during our trip! Pups were happy and therefore our trip was stress free. I think the house was cleaner when we got home than when we left! Don't hesitate to contact Chirelle!”
About: I've both owned and taken care of pets all my life! I'm definitely an animal lover by heart and treat them all with love and care I work from home, so I have a relatively flexible schedule. Simply put, my schedule is your pet's schedule once they are here with us I am unable to have pets at my house, but I am available to drop-in for house visits or provide dog walking services! Any pet is fine by me :)
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I grew up with dogs and now enjoy my own dog and watching my kiddos create their own memories with our dog Jack. We enjoy the outdoors and go on a lot of walks and hikes with Jack. I am a teacher looking for a side hustle after 3pm on weekdays and full availability on weekends and Summer. I live in Lake Geneva and work in Elkhorn, so I am available there and surrounding areas within reason. I have two dog loving, energetic kids, a husband and a rescue pup named Jack. We all do well with dogs! ;) We live in a quiet, safe neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. We also have a nice yard to play in along with an endless supply of hugs and treats.
About: Hi I am still available for your pet needs please feel free to call or text me. I am home full time and I honestly love animals i will work with all animal's and i can provide references upon request and I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. As aa kid when I had a dog I fed my dog trained my dog took my dog out my mom only had to do my dogs potty run when I was at school and what I was not able to do she did but I spent a great deal of time with my dog and the dogs I have now are very much loved trained and well behaved and I always tried to find the best ways and different ways that work with the dog.

I will gladly work with the owners on what they wish done. I am home 24/7 I do not work.The only time I am not home is if I have drs appointments or another client pet to attend to. I am very flexible in schedule. Please feel free to call me or text me. I care for my clients pets the way my clients ask of me in terms of feeding potty breaks walks etc. I care for the pets as I would want my pets treated with love kindness and respect. My clients I treat with the upmost respect and gratitude.

Rianna M.
“I've known Rianna for years now. She has been responsible for both my children (human and K9 alike) multiple times. She recently took on the task of house and dog sitting while we were gone and she excelled in this roll as well. She takes our boy for daily walks, sometimes more than once, she's affectionate, kind, and responsible. Rianna is smart, reliable and awesome with animals. Our Crashy is a picky boy when it comes to humans and Rianna gets his best wiggle butts and dances when she shows up to care for him! I would, and do hire Rianna over and over again!”

Elizabeth B.
“Elizabeth is the most caring person I have ever met. I have seen her challenge herself with dogs behavior while caring for her rescue dog Rascal.

She will love them like her own and let them have a great time. I would trust Elizabeth with my furry friend anytime.”
