“Olivia is reliable, honest, caring and is a wonderful friend to our dog Stella! She has a great attitude and excellent communication skills. We highly recommend her.”

About: A little about me, I have owned dogs my entire life and can handle any size dog you own. I have also owned cats most of my life. I absolutely love animals so that is why I decided to start being a pet sitter. I started dog sitting and dog walking at about 14 years old because I had a passion for being with dogs and did not have a dog at the time. I have owned many dogs, from little Dachshunds to huge Great Danes and Rottweilers. I volunteered at the Humane Society when I was younger and loved being in contact with animals everyday. I have worked with playful puppies to the cuddly elderly dogs so believe me I can handle anything! In my current home I have a little cat named Sarabi so if you want your dog staying at my house it must be okay with cats, my cat loves dogs! I live right in front of a hiking trail so if your dog loves walks I know they'll love this trail! I do own a car so I can really drive anywhere. I am really flexible and can move around your schedule. Let me take care of your furry one! I'm currently working remotely so I will be able to be with your pet the entire time and give them all the love and cuddles they need! I can care for your dog based on how you want me to care for them. If they need lots of exercise I can provide that for them or if they just like to chill and snuggle while you're gone I can do that too!
About: I've had multiple dogs over the last 30 years. Mainly Bull Mastiffs, Border Collie Mix, and multiple Pitties. We lately have been adopting older dogs to give them the best end of life possible. For friends I've watched many smaller to larger dogs, comfortable with all. I have experience with all sorts of meds and care, although I prefer to stay away from anything with needles when possible. We've been to the vet more times than I can count, and have gotten good at understanding/reading dog behavior and signs of distress. I have experience with all soft of personalities...shy or alpha, lazy or rambunctious, etc. I like to understand them and work with them where they are at so they enjoy themselves and are happy. I'm a pretty calm presence and in general dogs trust me right away. My wife will joke that I am a dog whisperer as dogs tend to follow my lead easily, but I think it is simply being confident and projecting that you are there to take care of them. I have a very flexible work schedule and am home most of the time. I only have 1 dog right now (Oscar, 82 lb Pitty who loves everything and everyone...he walks around with soft toys like they are his dolls), but will likely be back to 2 in the near future. I walk my pup(s) pretty much every day. We live near Hart Park and the Oak Leaf Trail so getting out to walk along the river/parks is very easy. New to doing this formally rather than just for friends. Normally watch friends dogs at their place. If we take care of your pup in our home, we will always have 1+ pups that will be other-dog friendly. My wife and I have a small Tosa home but fully fenced-in yard to be able to let them out at any time day or night without worry. We have a small main floor but it has 3-4 dog beds and multiple toys (prefer dogs who are ok with soft toys, as our pup(s) don't rip those up. Will likely prefer caring for your pup in your home, it simply mitigates the crowding in the house and any potential conflicts. If I look after any cats, those would be at your house. We no longer have cats and aren't prepped for that in any way.
About: My husband and I loved our dog for 10 years. We can’t get another one anytime soon but will love yours like our own. We both had dogs as pets growing up and have cared for a pet for 40+ years. I am an elementary school principal. I am available for full-time care or walking June-August. Outside of that, I’m available full-time on the weekends and evenings during the week. We are available to accommodate personal requests, a safe environment and safe neighborhood. We are looking to provide care for your beloved pet and to help you out when needed.
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 9 and currently have my own dog. I pet sit for coworkers and friends when they go out of town. I've raised puppies as well as cared for senior dogs. I work from home 3 days a week. I am able to check in on or walk dogs with my little dog on my lunch break or after work. (My dog does not join on cat appointments, but she gets along with most dogs on walks. Dog walking appointments without my own dog are possible upon request.) I have experience with dog and cat behavior, including reactive dogs. While I would like to bring my own dog along on walks you can request me not to if that is what's best for your dog. My dog does come with me for cat appointments ever.
About: I will care for your fur baby as if he or she were my very own. I have pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors. I currently work three days a week. I’m available all day on Mondays, Tuesdays, weekday evenings, and the weekends. I’m also available for extended stays. I’m an honest and trustworthy person who would gladly care for your fur baby in your home. Look forward to meeting my future furry friend.

“I was very worried about finding someone dependable to care for our dog while we're at work. Emma has been communicative and reliable, and a huge help to us. We would recommend her for anyone looking!”


About: I've taken care of numerous dogs since a young age. My goal is to make sure your pet gets the exercise and attention they deserve. Looking forward to working with you! I have grown up with a variety of animals all my life. I have one dog right now and have grown up taking care of cats and dogs. I have also had a frog before! Through this I have gained experience taking care of all animals and their needs. I have also been trusted by family and friends to take care of their pets when they are on vacation or an emergency comes up. I am a current medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin in the last year of school. I currently have a very flexible schedule that can best fit the needs of your pet. I am always focused on the animal I am taking care of to ensure their safety. When pet sitting in someones home I ensure you that your home will be just as clean as you left it! Schedule is completely open to fit you and your pets needs. Whether it be sitting for a night, walks during the day, or for a couple hours. I have cared for a variety of dog breeds and have had zero issues with any. Some breeds I have worked with: Labs, Pit Bulls, Grey Hound, German Shepherd, Australian Sheperd, Chihuahua, Great Dane, Sheep Doodle, German Shorthair Pointer, Husky, Bernese Mountain dog and more! I have a very flexible schedule and am always willing to accomodate. Please feel free to reach out for any dog walking, stop-in, or live-in dogsitting needs! Depending on your specific needs, I am more than capable of working with whatever safety measures you require, including but not limited to fences, collars, crates, etc.
About: I’ve had two rescue dogs that lived very long lives with me. I’m sure I’ll be able to meet your needs whatever your dog requires. I’m currently retired so my schedule is quite flexible. Therefore, I will do mornings, afternoon, evenings, and/ or weekends for dog walking or dog sitting. I can stay at a client’s home or a pet can come to my home. I do not have a fenced yard therefore I will leash and walk or take to a park.
About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the level of love, patience, and personal experience I bring to every pet I care for. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. I know firsthand how important reliable, attentive, and compassionate care is — because that’s exactly what I want for my own pets. I have experience working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement like potty training, crate training, leash manners, and positive behavior encouragement. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, mobility support, or just a little extra patience and gentleness. Beyond the basics, I pay attention to the small details — each pet’s personality, routines, comfort needs, and quirks. Whether it’s energetic playtime, structured walks, cuddle sessions, or calm companionship, I tailor my care to what makes your pet feel safe and happy. To me, this isn’t just pet sitting — it’s caring for a member of your family. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with genuine love, responsibility, and respect. Pet care is naturally built into my daily and weekly routine because I already structure my day around my own pets’ needs. Every morning and evening include scheduled walks and potty breaks to keep dogs active, comfortable, and on a consistent routine. I provide morning and evening feedings, with fresh water available at all times throughout the day. In addition to scheduled breaks, I let dogs out as needed — paying close attention to their cues to make sure they’re comfortable and never waiting too long. Because caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, adding another pet into my routine feels seamless. I prioritize consistency, supervision, exercise, and affection, making sure each pet feels secure and well cared for from morning to night. My care always depends on the service requested, but my priority is the same in every setting: safety, consistency, and lots of love. In My Home: When pets stay with me, they become part of my daily routine. I maintain structured morning and evening walks, regular potty breaks throughout the day, scheduled feedings, and constant access to fresh water. I create a calm, clean, and pet-safe environment where they can relax comfortably. I follow the owner’s instructions closely — whether that’s crate training, reinforcing puppy training, administering medication, or providing extra support for senior dogs. I also make sure they receive plenty of playtime, affection, and supervision so they feel secure and at home. In My Client’s Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, potty breaks, medication instructions, and any household guidelines exactly as requested. I respect your home and keep everything clean and organized. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. No matter the location, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, attention to detail, and genuine love. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously.
“Andrew showed up on time and ready to work! He was full of energy and seemed to genuinely enjoy his time with Maximus. I would definitely recommend him for all dogs but especially young dogs with energy.”


About: I have been around animals in my family my whole life and have always enjoyed taking care of them and keeping them entertained. I have been working at Central Bark Doggy Daycare for 5 months and have experience with lots of breeds! I currently am in school and a sport, my availability for pet care on a weekday will have thee windows from (11:48pm-1:05pm), from (2:16pm-3:20pm) and from (5:45pm-11pm) unless I work at my other job in the evening I will only be available for the first window of time. I live with my parents and pets of my own so my house is not available for pet care. But when I am in a clients home I always leave it just as neat as I left it. I would prefer if I knew where all cleaning supplies are in order to clean up any pet messes!
