“Mickayla took wonderful care of my cats and went above and beyond! She sent updates, detailed notes, and photos from each visit. I was a little apprehensive about hiring a pet sitter, but was completely at ease as soon as I met Mickayla. She gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be rebooking!”


“Jeanne continues to be the best! One of my cats wasn’t feeling her best when I left and Jeanne was very attentive and gave her extra love and got her back to feeling herself while I was gone!”


“Leslie-Ann always takes such good care of our dogs. She does a wonderful job of taking pictures and keeping us updated on the dogs and how they were during the visit.”


“Eleanor was exceptional! Sweet, personable and eager to learn how to give our kitty her insulin injections! She came to our house 4 times on her own to practice and make sure we were both comfortable. She learned and practiced outside of our scheduled vacation times! Our kitty has multiple issues that were all handled with love and compassion. I can’t believe we found such an angel! Absolutely amazing. I will use her again and again and recommend her to everyone I know❤️”


About: I am from Norway, living in De Pere together with my husband and my 3 dogs. Since I am not working, I have a lot of time to take care of your pets. Always had dogs in my family. Have experience with high demand breeds like Siberian Huskies and senior dogs with health issues. Work as a volunteer at Wisconsin Humane Society. I'm currently volunteering part time at Wisconsin Humane Society and have plenty of time to take care of your dogs. Active person and available for short and long walks. My pets are part of my family. The pets will be treated as family members and receive a lot of love and care. I am hands on and very active with my dogs inside and outside.

About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs my entire life. My house is great for all pet types. Yards is fenced in and great for dogs to run around and explore. My summer is completely free to support and care for all your pet's wants and needs. They will have my full attention and love when they are in my care. I have a nice sized fenced in yard. My home is comfortable and clean. Pets will be allowed to roam and cuddle on pet friendly furniture.

About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. Currently, I’m expanding my skills in training dogs with behavioral challenges. I’m already working with a client who has made tremendous progress under my guidance. Additionally, I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own and am currently doing rover full time so there's no job getting in the way of your animals care. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.

About: I have cared for pets since I was a kid and have continued that love today! I have cared for animals of young and old age along with varying personalities. I adapt to each animal as needed! I am able to care for pets early mornings, afternoons, and evenings! I love to start and end my day with care as I have a job in between these times. I create a safe environment with pets by reading their behavior and adapting as time goes on. I try to make them as comfortable as possible as I understand a new person can be stressful! I am careful to care for all pets/home environment with high care as if it is my own!

About: I’ve been around dogs, cats and other pets my whole life. I grew up on a hobby farm and have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages—from kittens and puppies to seniors. I currently have two dogs of my own and know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Since I work from home, I’m able to be flexible and give your pet the attention they deserve, whether that’s regular walks, check-ins, or just some extra company during the day. I’m also a clear communicator and will always keep you in the loop while you're away. Looking forward to getting to know your pet! I work from home, so I am flexible about what time of day I can drop in on your pets. I can also bring my computer and work from your home if needed. Weekend availability varies but I keep my schedule up to date on Rover. I take care of pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment. I'll follow the routine you provide—whether it’s feeding, walks, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, double-check doors and gates, and always keep you updated with how things are going. Whether it’s a drop-in, walk, or overnight stay, you can count on reliable care and clear communication.

“Shanna was fantastic! She helped us out at the last minute when we found out he couldn’t go to the kennel due to a health issue. She came that same day to meet us and the next day she went to work. You can tell she really loves dog and our dog absolutely loved her!”


About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born ranging from large dogs to small dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care, walk, and watch their animals. I work full time during the week, but I have weekends and evenings to care for your pups! I love to fill my spare time with loving animals. When I do drop-ins or walks, I treat your dog like I would my own—making sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I’d love to hear any tips or quirks about your pup so I can give them the best possible experience and meet their individual needs.

About: I was born into a dog family and have been exposed to animals of all sorts starting at a very young age. I have had five dogs in my life. The one that meant the most to me was the one I raised myself. Her name was angel and I started raising her when I was only eight years old. My aunt had a litter of puppies and was giving them away to family and friends, I had gotten an Angel and since then she had been my best friend. Unfortunately, she passed away when I was 19 years old due to breast cancer, but she was my responsibility throughout her lifetime. I had only gotten her when she was a few weeks old, and I had the patience and caring heart to take care of her until the day that she passed. I also had a German Shepherd, a black lab, a pitbull /basset hound mix, and a pitbull who only had three legs. Each one of these animals has had a big impact on my life. I have also had many experiences taken care of other animals besides dogs and cats, including, not limited to snakes, wildlife, fish, hamsters, gerbils, birds, etc. I take special care to each animal that is in my responsibility because I believe that each animal should have their own individual cares met, as well as their own happiness and satisfaction met in life. I work full time as a Team Lead at Paragon Community Services. I work 8am-4pm Monday-Friday with no weekends or holidays. I am available on weekends and holidays unless I am scheduled as unavailable. I am also open to evening services after work :) I will always follow the owners instructions as that is my main priority. Any directions given to me will be well followed! I know crate training, walking on leashes, how to operate bark collars, really anything you will use for your pet and if I don’t I am always able to learn!

About: I love animals and always make sure they feel special and loved, just like my own pets at home. I can also take your pet to the dog park if that is preferred. I’ve owned dogs & cats most of my life and I am sure we can create a good relationship together to keep your pets healthy and happy. I am sorry, but I am currently unable to offer doggy day care or in-home care, as my apartment does not allow them. But I am hoping to open that up in the future if I ever do move to a place that allows them I am currently able to do in home checkups, and I’m more than happy to spend extra time with them to play or snuggle if needed. I have some experience with tube feeding kittens and basic wound care as needed. I am also comfortable giving medications or taking your pet to the vet if you’re unable.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little. Neighbors, friends, family have relied on me to walk, feed, walk their pets Pet care is integrated into daily and weekly routines by establishing consistent schedules for feeding, exercise, and playtime, as well as incorporating pet related tasks into existing activities. Pet care involves comfortable environment, providing food and water, exercise, and companionship, as well as adhering to any specific instructions or routines by the owner.

About: I’ve watched other pets for years and am always open and eager to care for many more! I love taking walks and always look forward to caring for dogs when I get the chance. I work from 3-6:30 every other week and weekends but am free every morning and evening! I have pretty much an open schedule ! 😊 I have an open yard and two friendly dachshunds named Lambeau and Jordy as well as a bunny named Dapper! I always watch when they go outside and make sure they have a clean/comfortable space to eat and sleep.

“I work night shifts and Cooper was able to accommodate our schedule to let Rosie out late at night! He was so gentle and friendly with her, and was really easy to communicate with. Will definitely be reaching out when we need a walker again!”

“I have worked at a dog daycare with her for over a year now and she cares about other people’s dogs as if they were her own. Every dog that comes to our facility gets so much extra love and attention from Tina whenever she is here. She goes above and beyond in working with dogs that are nervous, making sure to pay attention to each dogs unique personalities to make sure that every animal is having the best time while away from their owners, even if it’s just for the day.

When ever I travel I rely on her to watch my cat and take care of him, and I always come back to a healthy and happy kitty! He recently went through a bout of nausea, and has to take medicine for it, and I could trust her to be responsible enough to make sure his medications were received correctly and timely. She's the best!”
