About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid and have over 6 years of professional experience. I’ve worked with all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, puppies, special needs animals, and working breeds. I also know pet first aid and have experience with basic training, so I’m confident handling a variety of situations. I am a stay at home mom, and can fit into whatever your schedule needs. I am available for boarding and daycare, and mornings during weekdays for drop-ins and dog walking. I have two friendly dogs. I like to keep pets on a familiar routine with feeding time, play time, and walks, while in my care. Everyone gets the attention they deserve, and I am always at home. I will keep you updated with messages and pictures.

About: My entire life I have been raised with lots of animals and was always so excited to play with the pups. I have always had a thought about wanting to become a dog trainer and when I bought my first dog that was my own it showed me that I really am interested in an animal focused career! I currently do not work, so I fortunately have all the free time to spend time and play with these sweet and amazing fur babies! I will always follow the clients wishes and preferred schedule. I know how scary it can be leaving your animal with someone else and not being able to be there:(

“Jordan did a fantastic job of dropping in on my kitty while I was away. She had great communication and promptly replied to messages. She administered meds for my kitty with no problem, and even did a couple of extra things like bring in my mail and water my plants. I highly recommend her services and look forward to booking with her again.”


“Becky did an incredible job for our cat Suna. It was our first time leaving him alone for a weekend, but Becky made us feel at ease by going above and beyond and letting us know about the slightest changes in mood or behavior. She also spent a lot of time cuddling and playing with Suna and even washed his food containers. We could not be more happy. Becky, thank you so much and please come again!”

“Josh was great with my animals!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, cows etc since I was little. I worked at the Crivitz Countryside Veterinary Clinic for 5 years right out of high school. I want to help others with their pets needs just as I would want the help in return. I live in Shawano, but work in Howard/Green Bay Mon-Friday. I’m able to take care of pet needs in either location, anywhere in between, or slightly past those points! 😊❤️ On weekends I have more availability to do multiple drop in visits and more frequent dog walks. Daycare/Boarding is convenient for nonstop snuggles, chit chats, fetch, walks, treats, and a watchful eye on your fur babies. 10 acres with a pond/river wooded backyard. I have one dog who is high energy, but independent enough to do her own thing. She loves to play fetch, walk the trails in the woods, and car rides. I will always introduce my dog to yours through a baby gate, once they get smells/intro’s over with I like to have them meet outside for a potty break, this method takes the protective instincts away. Guards come down. A little trick I learned from working at the Vet Clinic that hasn’t let me down yet. I can keep them separate from one another also if you wish/request. Though my dog is a fixed/spayed female. I have a split level 4 bedroom house that allows a lot of space in the two living room areas in case your pet prefers their own space to eat/protective. I live 8 min from the Shawano dog park and less than 5 min from the dog beach.

About: I am very playful with pets, they will have my full attention. They will get all the kisses and hugs they want. I will treat each pet as if they were my own. I am a very responsible person and if given the change you will see that. I just moved the Baltimore area and would like the opportunity to put my service to use and be the best furbaby babysitter of all time. Please allow for me to have the opportunity to show you how responsible, kind, and compassionate I can be with your pet. You will be able to get into contact with me whenever you need reassurance that your furbaby is doing well and is happy. Everyone is welcomed in my home I am available as needed I work from home so I am able to attended to all pet needs. A typical day with me includes lots of walks and treats I have a fenced back yard that the dogs are able to run around in. It is a big house so they are able to run around where ever

About: I have a large fenced yard for playing outside. I can handle large and small dogs as well as puppies. I have experience with somewhat difficult pups and have loads of patience. I am also available for larger animal care such as horses, goats, sheep, etc. please reach out with questions and rates. I have very open availability, and I am flexible on how much notice I'll need. I am available early mornings, afternoons, as well as evenings. I have a large fenced yard for playing outside and my dog's love making new friends. I also have a large crate of you prefer your pup be kept separate or I can crate my pups to keep them separate. I can also come check on your critters at your home whenever needed.

“5+ star review for Melissa! Reading previous reviews, I wasn't surprised that Melissa took such great care of my 2 kitties while I was away - she has an obvious talent for interacting with animals and seems to sincerely love her job. I was however a bit surprised by the extra level of professionalism Melissa brings to her service. Her communications are both timely and thorough and she expertly adjusted her care plan - on the fly - to accommodate some extra shy behavior from my younger kitten. Melissa's gentle patience won out in the end and I arrived home to 2 very content and stress-free fur babies. A truly perfect ending to my holiday weekend. I will most definitely reach out to Melissa for help again next time!”


About: I’ve never not had a pet. I currently have 1 dog and 1 cat as well as care for my brother’s St. Bernard and Great Pyrenees. My grandpups are a Blue Healer and a Black Lab. Animals and I seem to connect right away. In the Fall of 2023 I left the corporate world of office work to pursue enjoying life more and less stress. Early retirement with a side gig…my children are grown and my schedule is open now to help others. I’m very comfortable with animals of all sizes and have experience administering meds. I’m very open to following whatever schedule or routine you have your animals on. If they just need someone to come play or walk them to expend their energy, that’s perfect also.

About: I am currently an animal loving college student that has some extra time looking for some extra cash, as well as being able to help out families that need a dog sitter or give their dogs company while they may be away. I have been a pet owner since the time I was 5 years old. I have had 4 dogs through my life, along with fostering a couple until they found their forever home. This has included, potty training, taking care of dogs that have been mistreated in the past (takes lots of patience and love), taking them for walks, playing catch, bring them to go potty outside, fetching them food and giving them lots of attention. As long as I am with your dog/cat, they will have all the love and back scratches they could ask for!

“Catherine was so good with my cats. I have 3 seniors 1 of which is 20. She had him walking around on her shoulder, licking Churu from her hand, and warmed right up to her. They all did. It was a big relief for me. She went over and above my expectations.”

I would definitely be using her services again.”

Amy H.
“Amy is fantastic! I have 2 dogs and they are very high- needs/special needs dogs. Not only is Amy incredibly kind and gentle, she knows them each inside out and what to watch out for with both of them. She is skilled at medication administration and taking care of health care needs. She is a loving and terrific companion for them, is present when she’s with them, and treats our dogs as her own. Amy has also pet-sat my cat and rabbit. Amy is highly dependable and trustworthy and is my #1 go-to every time I need a pet sitter.”


Erika H.
“Erika is an avid animal lover and has had several dogs throughout her life. She is one of those people who when she see's someone walking their animal has to stop to say hi to them. She is very responsible and is able to handle multiple responsibilities at once whether it's school, work, or family obligations. She is very easy to talk to, and like with most things, will likely do more than is expected of her.”
