“Alisha and Nick were amazing! They helped me last minute to care for my pup so I could enjoy my wedding day. And they sent so many cute photos! I will definitely be keeping their number and calling them again!”

About: Hi there! My name is Jenna and while I’m home I would love to watch your pup. I am a foster parent for many different rescues in the area including Cocos Heart, Across America Boxer Rescue and Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue. I have fostered everything from 10 week old puppies (yes I have the chew marks on my couch to prove it) to the unforgettable seniors! My home is full of dog beds, treats and all the loving they could ever want. I have a privacy fenced in backyard and provide kennels as well for safe spaces too. I would love to cuddle your fur baby while you are away. I will be returning to the office here in January but I can offer a safe space via kennel or pen while I’m at work (no longer than 8 hours). I do have some hybrid days that I may be home to give extra cuddles. When I’m not working, I’m home. While home, treats, loves, pets, outside time are in the agenda. When I am not home safe space kennel time with soothing music until I return will play. My privacy fence covers 90% of my yard with a fenced gate covering the other 10%. Your fur baby will not be outside unattended however. I also have a boxer that if they get along they are welcomed to play together, however if they don’t get along no worries! Being a foster parent I know how to split my house and time between to babies. I also have cameras set up so I can keep an eye on the babies at all times. Your fur baby will be treated like royalty when they are staying here.
About: What sets me apart from others in animal care is the deep level of patience, empathy, and attention I bring to every animal I work with. I take the time to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I don’t just focus on the physical care—they get emotional care too. Whether it’s calming a nervous pet, noticing subtle changes in behavior, or going the extra mile to make their experience positive, I always strive to make a genuine difference in their well-being. I’m currently a full-time student, but I make sure to keep my schedule open in the afternoons and evenings to provide quality care for animals. I’m available after classes and can work up until around 8 p.m., allowing me to give each animal the attention and care they need. Balancing school and work has helped me become organized, dependable, and fully committed to giving my best in every task I take on. The care and dedication I put into being a good dog mom naturally extends to how I care for other people’s animals. I understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal as if they were my own—patiently, kindly, and with full attention to their needs. My experience helps me recognize signs of stress, comfort anxious pets, and build trust quickly. I always strive to create a safe, loving environment where every animal feels secure and cared for, just like I do with my own.
About: I was raised around all kind of dogs, big and small. I had the great opportunity to live in the country and learn how to care for all types of animals, especially our dogs. I am great with feeding schedules and making sure that your pet is cared for the way you would care for them. I love spending time with them no matter what. Playing, walking, or just sitting and spending time so there not so lonely. I am attending uw-river falls as a freshmen this year, so i am available on on Tuesdays till 11:30 and Thursdays all day until 4:30. Fridays i am available all day after 2 and Saturdays and Sundays I am available all day! I have a leash and a poop bag ready for your pet! Tracking out the route I will walk your dog is an important part of my service to make sure your dog will be kept safe. Making sure that your pet returns to you happy and healthy is what I'm here for! I will be equipped with treats and a water bowl just in case your pet gets a little thirsty on our walks. And of course making sure that your pet is comfortable with me is always at the top of my list.
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals and always had a dog and cat in my house growing up. I’ve worked as a dog groomer for 2 years and miss having the everyday interaction with dogs and cats. I have an emotional support dog of my own, his name is Avett and he’s my little man he came to work at the groomers with me and is friendly with all dogs. Being able to comfort an animal is emotionally fulfilling and being able to treat and cuddle them brings so much joy I love them all as my own. I have a beautiful fenced in yard and home that is able to be a safe haven for your loves when you need help with care. I would love to work with animals again and have the gratifying feeling of caring for them. I’m able to work from home select days which gives me the ability to work with animals. I have a nice fenced in yard with room to run and a wonderful walking trail next to my house to take them on adventures.
About: Hi there! My name is Charlotte (“Charlie”). I’m a Certified Veterinary Technician. I have years of personal and professional experience with pets. I am fortunate to be able to offer individualized and consistent care in your home. I am also able to provide large animal care! Living in Wisconsin and commuting across the river allows me to serve pets and their families in many areas. You dog is always welcome to come along for the ride! I am working as a paraprofessional in the Stillwater Area School District for the 25-26 school year. My school day ends about 2:30pm. I am available for overnight care in your home or mine anytime. I diligently follow directions for care. Depending on the pet and their needs, I adapt my care style to make them as comfortable as possible.
“Courtney reliably came twice a day to take care of our fur baby and make sure she was well-fed, had water, and the litter box scooped. We'll definitely request Courtney for future pet sitting needs.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. Family, neighbors, and friends have always trusted me to do so. They bring extra happiness to my every day life! I have always said, we don’t deserve animals. I have a special place in my heart for them! I am looking to do this as an extra source of income to help provide for my family. This sounds like a great opportunity for me to make some income while doing something I love! I am flexible. I have two dogs, and two cats of my own! One is a border collie ( 5 years old) who loves to herd the cats around the house and stare at them. The other is a black lab (1.5 years old) who is a big teddy bear and doesn’t know his own size but, is a gentle giant. The two cats mind their own business but, come out for cuddles every so often. They definitely love their treats! We unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard but, we have dog leads that our dogs are able to be let out on. We also let them run free when we are out there with them. They love tossing the ball around and chasing after it! Having a friendly/safe neighborhood has made it very enjoyable for walks as well. Our home has hardwood floor throughout the main living areas so, it is easy for clean up if needed! We are animal friendly 🥰🐾
About: My mother breeds miniature Australian shepherds and I used to work with her for 10 years taking care of newborn, teenage, and adult dogs. I have done everything from training, bathing, giving medications, and plenty of animal loving! We would board all types of dogs big to small too. I grew up with many dogs in my household and know first hand how our animals are our children and how to care and make them feel so very loved. I am currently a flight attendant and my schedule varies month to month. The days that I am home I will be able and can send you my schedule a month in advance. I have a spacious apartment with a dog park attached as well as a wonderful walking trail to get your furry loved one the exercise they need. I do have a cat that keeps to himself but loves dogs. If you’re dog just wants the company I do allow dogs on my couch and bed. Have plenty of toys, water and food dish, and pee pee pads just in case.
“Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were on a trip! She provided great photos and notes each day and the kitties were happy and well taken care of when we got home. We will book with her again!”

About: I've had pets (dogs of all sizes, cats, fish) since I was 7. I currently have a dog of my own. I've trained her. I am always happy to watch, play, feed, bathe, and walk dogs. I am a stay-at-home dog owner, which means taking care of your dog is my main priority! Doggy day care and boarding is always available. I usually accept all dogs. I only refuse service if the dog has previously bit me and/or continued aggression. I have one very friendly female dog (spayed) who loves to make new friends and spend time with old ones. I keep dogs typically in the living area, uncaged. I only cage dogs if the owner requests it, and in a different room from the other dogs. I do have another helper (my fiance), as he also enjoys dogs very much. My walking route is usually around Glen Park, I change it up as needed to boost the adventure for your dog(s). **Water will ALWAYS be available and replenished for your dog(s). Food schedule based.**
“Alex was great! He handled our high energy dog very well. Millie was a happy girl when we got home! He followed our instructions and I felt very comfortable that Millie would be well taken care of on the drop in visit. Would definitely recommend Alex!”

About: I've taken care of and trained dogs for the last 9 years, and I've grown up around livestock and household pets alike. I have experience with most animals (besides reptiles). I've trained puppies and done end-of-life care for senior cats. I attend College for Animal Science. All of my classes are done by 1, sometimes earlier each day. The entirety of my afternoon is open for pet care, walking, or any needs you may have. I can crate your dog if needed, or provide stimulation, both mental and physical, if needed. Though I'm not a certified trainer, I would love to teach your pup some basic or silly tricks, or I can sit and snuggle with them. Their comfort is my top priority.
About: I have owned and taken care of many types of animals since I was 5. I currently work at a dog daycare and lodging establishment. I have worked with kittens/puppies as well as senior dogs and cats. I work outside of common working hours which gives me the time to take care of your pets while you are at work or on trips. I value the saftey and health of all pets, I have training in observing unusual behaviors in animals. I highly value communication and honesty with you as the owner especially when I notice these behaviors.
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs since I was 12. Growing up we had a small papillon dog and now I have a yellow lab, Rosie! I’ve been the go-to neighborhood pet sitter for years so I have lots of experience with all types of dogs, big or small 🐶 While in my care your dog will get tons of love and attention, walks, treats, and anything else they may require from me. I currently work from day shift Monday through Friday— our typical schedule consists of the dogs being let out in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Rosie eats at 7 and 6 but I can feed your dog according to their schedule. I guarantee at least one (sometimes two!) long walk(s) per day. We have great walking trails near our home in the city of River Falls and on the UW-River Falls campus. I’m available for pick-up and drop-off anytime after 4:30 M-F or all day on the weekends. I also love taking pictures and promise to keep you updated daily during your pet’s stay 😊 We have a small fenced in back yard (this is just a temporary fence) and a huge dog park just a few miles down the road! Please let me know if you are comfortable with me taking your dog to the park otherwise our main form of exercise will be lots of walks! Dogs will be well cared for in our home just like our own dog! Our lab, Rosie, loves all dogs and is great at matching other dog’s energy levels. She is only 1 & 1/2 years old so is still a puppy at times but loves to have a friend to play with. I am happy to crate your dog if you provide a crate, but otherwise dogs are allowed on furniture and in all areas of our home. *We do have a 7 month old baby so your dog must get along with children.* He adores animals and we have not had any issues to date. I am happy to do a meet and greet if you have any concerns that can’t be addressed via chat.
“Vanessa is a true cat-lover and our cat was comfortable with her from the first time they met. She took excellent care of him while we were away on vacation, followed directions, and I would highly recommend her to other cat parents.”

“Lydia was amazing. She really helped me out last minute without hesitation. My sitter canceled last minute and Lydia stepped up so I could still make my work trip. Thank you Lydia!!!!! Would definitely use her again and please give her a chance if you haven’t!”

About: I have a deep love for animals that has been with me since childhood. I am currently in the process of establishing my own animal foster care facility, catering to all kinds and breeds. It is my dream to provide peace of mind to families in need of care for their pets while they are away on business or vacation. I believe in ensuring that all pets are properly cared for, loved, and happy. I am dedicated to giving as much love as possible to all the little creatures in my care. I make sure that my own pet has plenty of adventure and companionship for a healthy and fulfilling life. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. 🩷🙌🏼 I am available to care for your pets on weekends as needed! Short term visits and long term visits for a Friday to Sunday if needed. I have two small dogs who are extremely friendly! I can also travel to your home as needed and stay with your pets from a Friday to Sunday. I can help on weekdays for drop-in visits…. However, I do not get done with work until 4pm. My two pups enjoy seeing new parks and love their hiking adventures - when they aren’t doing that, they are cuddling up at home with each other. I can help take care of your pets to your desired schedule / routine for them.
