“Rebecca was a treasure! Both for me and my kitters. Pics, and even a video, from each visit, showed how much Zuko warmed up to her right away. Communication before and after was so helpful, since I'd never used a service such as this before. Rebecca's service is definitely a 5-star rating. I'll be calling on her again and again, as needed. Thank you so very much!! NS”


About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have even helped friends and family with their dogs. I even got help my best friend get her dog dressed up for her wedding! I currently have flexible work from home hours where I can come play with the fluff balls when needed. I am only unavailable Tuesday and Wednesday. I live in an apartment but on the edge of town and have a huge area to run the dogs when they need some exercise.

About: Conveniently located 7 minutes from Wisconsin Dells (the map is not accurate), in the country on a few acres with a large fenced in area! I love taking care of pups in my home just as one of my own furry family members. I have a degree as a vet tech and in canine obedience and behavior! I have been boarding dogs in my home and pet sitting for over 25 years. I also ran a wonderful dog rescue for almost ten years giving me a wide variety of experience with many situations and behaviors. I love being able to help people with knowing their pup is in the best of care so you can enjoy your Vacation or not add more stress in a time of sorrow or whatever the situation may be that brings you to needing dog sitting! I also own my own business doing interior painting so have a very flexible schedule. I love being able to be flexible for you and for your pup I have a fenced in yard, can separate and/crate dogs as needed. I do offer for them to sleep with me at night and be spoiled. I will take them for rides, hikes, to the store all if applicable!


“Charlie and Cosmo were very happy that someone could come and play with them midday! Rachel was great! Responded quickly even though the request was a little late the night before. She seemed to have no issues dealing with a stubborn pug puppy as well.”


About: Hi there! Animals have been a part of my life for over 10 years. I grew up on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care from a young age. Over the years, I’ve continued to build on that experience in both personal and professional settings. I had the amazing opportunity to travel the country as a professional dog handler, showing dogs in AKC conformation shows. This gave me hands-on experience with many breeds and temperaments, and deepened my understanding of proper grooming, handling, and breed-specific care. I also spent five years working as a veterinary assistant, where I gained valuable experience with medical care, medications, and special-needs animals. If your pet requires medication or extra attention, you can rest assured they’ll be in capable and caring hands. In addition to pet sitting and walks, I’m happy to offer nail trims and other basic grooming care. I share my home with a sweet, neutered 15-year-old dachshund who’s incredibly friendly. While he doesn’t walk much these days, he enjoys riding along in his stroller and keeping me company. Today, I work in the human medical field, but animals will always hold a special place in my heart. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and becoming someone you can trust with their care. I currently work Monday-Thursday, which allows me to take pets Fri-Saturday, but I can be flexible with evening check-ins or walks during the regular work week as well. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and your space. I’ll follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, loving environment. I keep things clean, safe, and low-stress, with plenty of cozy spots to rest and room for play. My senior dachshund is friendly and relaxed, and usually sleeping.

“Kimberly did an awesome job with my two senior cats. Zeke didn’t lose any weight while I was gone and Willie was spoiled with frequent walks on his leash to the point that I probably can’t live up to his new expectations 🙄. Will definitely use Kimberly again.”


About: Hello my name is Candida (Candi). I have worked in and with Rescues and Humane Societies throughout the State of WI over the last 30 years. I currently have 4 dogs and live out in the country with lots of room to run. I am very familiar with different behavior issues as well as how to work with your pets to get through those issues. This experience comes from fostering many high risk animals over the years. Your pet will be treated the same in my home as he/ she is treated in your home. If they go on your furniture, they are welcome on mine, etc. I am always willing to go the extra mile, if your pet needs a bath or a nail clip, I am happy to do that. I have experience with training, CPR, Giving Meds both by mouth and shot. Some of my friends lovingly call me the crazy dog lady because of my deep love for dogs, they have feelings and emotions just as we do and I always take that into consideration when caring for them. Given the opportunity I will show you that you can trust me to care for your baby while you are away just as you care for them when you are home. I currently work part time at my own small business so my schedule is super flexible and can be easily worked around your needs. This gives me the flexibility to give your pet all the time and attention they need while in my care. I have four dogs that are the sweetest babies. They get along great with all animals as well as kids. I do not have a fenced yard as we live on 80 acres out in the country, but I do have a portable temporary fencing that can be put up for outside time. We have a large area in the lower level of our home for inside play time. As I said earlier, when your pet is in my home, they will be treated just as they are when they are with you. I know how important routine is to their little minds. If you feed at a certain time, I will follow that routine. I know mine have a very set routine, they surely know when dinner time is. :o)

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses. Once I became an adult, I had my own dogs, cats, horses, and goats. Currently, I only have 1 dog now that I am living back in town. I work for a local animal shelter and we handle dogs at the shelter, but we handle all animal welfare cases for our county. It is an open admission shelter so I am use to small, medium, and large dogs. I am also use to scared, sweet, fun, and sometimes aggressive dogs. I've worked with them all! I'm currently working full time, Monday-Friday during the day. I do have some week night and weekend availability. Let's see what we can work out. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can run and play. Otherwise, I would use a leash or tie out while they are outside.

“Abby came to our home each day while we were on vacation to attend to our elderly cat and everything went smoothly! She was trustworthy and thorough - sent notes and pictures and we never worried about anything while we were gone. We would definitely book her again - we trusted her and appreciated all she did!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I’ve watched for family, family friends, and neighbours. I’ve always loved animals, and getting to work with them is like a dream! I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m also more than willing to get my hands dirty! Puppies can I have accidents, but it’s not a problem! They like to play in the mud, guess that means bath time! I also have experience giving dogs medication. My own dogs take medication daily and I’ve done it while sitting before! I’m currently working part time but I am in the market for a new job so any days and times work. My personal schedule is very flexible! If you have a fenced in yard your fur babies will be let out every two hours (supervised of course:) )No fenced in yard? No problem. They will still be taken out every two hours on a leash. I am also more than happy to bring your fur babies on walks throughout the day, just as long as the weather is suitable for them! Between playtime and snuggle time your babies will be in great hands!

“Our little 15-year-old cat has had quite a few care givers in her lifetime and Jaimie is the best of the best. She’s friendly, conscientious, caring, and so, so good with animals (and people 🙂). There’s nothing like leaving town and knowing for certain your little friend is in kind, competent hands! 😻❤️”


About: Hi, I’m Chris! I’ve always loved being around dogs and have spent years caring for pups of all kinds — from high-energy adventurers to laid-back couch companions. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, and I’m here to give them the attention, care, and exercise they need while you’re away. Whether your dog loves a long, brisk walk or prefers a slower, sniff-filled stroll, I’ll adjust to whatever makes them happiest. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. Regular walks do more than just burn energy — they help dogs stay healthy, ease anxiety, and keep them mentally sharp. Plus, it gives them a chance to explore, smell new things, and just enjoy being a dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and be a part of their daily routine! I do a lot of running and trail running so if you have an active dog, we could have a lot of fun. But I also enjoy slow paced walks and just enjoying the environment. As I have had inside/outside dogs most of my life, I will always contain pets into the areas that are available for them but not a caged containment unless needed.

About: I’ve been taking car of cats and dogs since I was old enough to know how. I’ve currently had my childhood dog living with me for about 6 years and we love to do all the things. We love car rides, dressing up, and playing out in nature when it’s warm. I work during the day with kids that have autism but my nights and weekends are free for all the four legged love I can get. I would love to communicate and work with every owner so their fur baby feels safe no matter what’s the environment. Trust is very important for both owners and animals when bringing in a new person so transparency is always best.

About: I have a love for animals and caring for them. I have two dogs of my own and I grew up on a farm taking care of animals everyday. I have a lot of free time and would love to help others out! I can make almost all times work during the day to care for pets weekly. I do what the clients tell me and make sure the pet is happy and comfortable. I make sure to do everything to the best of my ability.
