House Sitting in Harambee, Milwaukee, WI

“Elizabeth did the most fantastic job with our dog Annie. She was always fast to respond and sent multiple updates with pictures! Annie can be reactive and has grudges against many of our neighbors dogs so leaving her with someone new for neighborhood walks can be daunting. I felt completely confident in Elizabeth after one walk with her and Annie. We will absolutely be reaching back out to Elizabeth the next time we are looking for a rover! Thank you so much for the best first rover experience.”

“10 stars needed! ❤️ left Keisha w/ a huge task!! She went above and beyond from every aspect ~ so accommodating… most importantly~ she took great care of the high maintenance rugrats and notably after being gone for 4 days ~ I know the dog didn’t leave the place spotless 😉 I’m a 1st timer on this app so I was anxious prior to our initial meet and great, having a stranger in your house and trusting them with your little loves was new for me.. No worries were needed… it couldn’t have been a more perfect experience!! ❤️”

About: I’ve been providing in-home dog sitting around the Milwaukee area for over three years, primarily through word-of-mouth referrals. I grew up with Labrador retrievers, and while life as a PhD student doesn’t allow me to have a dog of my own right now, dog sitting lets me enjoy the best of both worlds—caring for dogs while giving them consistent, attentive companionship. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m comfortable maintaining established routines, administering basic care, and making sure dogs feel calm, safe, and at home while their owners are away. I also take pride in caring for the home itself. I enjoy keeping a clean, organized space and always aim to leave homes as clean—or cleaner—than when I arrived. I’m happy to help with light household tasks while you’re away, such as bringing in mail, watering plants, or other small needs, so you can return to a well-kept home. I value clear communication and am happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can travel with peace of mind knowing your dog—and your home—are in good hands. My academic schedule gives me a high degree of flexibility, and I’m able to work from home most days, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs I care for. There are occasional times when I may need to step out for a few hours due to classes, meetings, or other commitments, but I always plan ahead and make sure dogs are comfortable, exercised, and settled before I leave. Most of my clients simply let me know the timeframes their dog needs to be let out, and I maintain a very organized schedule to ensure those needs are met. If I ever anticipate a conflict, I communicate with the family in advance before accepting the booking. I take an individualized approach to care, focusing on giving each dog what they need. I’ve worked with families who have young, energetic dogs as well as older dogs who prefer a slower, more relaxed routine, and I adjust my care accordingly. I’m personally very active, so I love going on walks, playing outside, or throwing a ball for dogs who enjoy staying busy. For dogs who are calmer or older, I’m just as happy to keep things low-key, follow their routine, and provide companionship at their pace. Most of my clients simply let me know what their dog needs—whether that’s exercise, frequent let-outs, medication reminders, or extra affection—and I make sure those needs are met. And of course, I’m always happy to give plenty of love and attention (if that’s what your dog enjoys!).

“Allie is great! We have three dogs and a cat, and each one of them is high maintenance in their own way- a senior with arthritis and a bit of doggie dementia, a double Merle who was born blind and deaf, has IBS, and is on anti-seizure meds, and a 3 year old with some anxiety issues and leash reactivity. To top it off, the cat is not a fan of strangers in his home. We haven’t had someone watch our pets since we moved to Grand Rapids because we didn’t know how in the world we would find someone up to the job! Allie came over for a meet and greet prior to watching them for a long weekend and it was clear right away that she had the energy, confidence and mindset to watch our crew. She sent pictures and notes throughout the weekend just to keep us updated, which was much appreciated since we were a bit anxious about leaving our crazy crew of pets in someone else’s care for the first time in a looong time! Allie was up for the challenge. We’re thrilled to have found her, and will definitely be asking her to come back!!”

“Travis was fantastic as our pet sitter. He was reliable, attentive, and genuinely cared for our pets. One of our dogs needed eye drops, and Travis handled it with ease. The pets were happy and well-cared for when we returned. Highly recommend!”

“We couldn’t be happier with Jenna! Our pup has separation anxiety and Jenna navigates that with compassion and care. Highly recommend!”
