House Sitting in Hogarty

“She was awesome! Sent us lots of pictures of our pup and cat, kept track of when our pup went out and what she did outside, and when/what they ate. Most importantly, our pets seemed very happy in her care. Definitely would like to book with her again!!”

“Nicole is one of our favorite Rover sitters! She sends us lots of pictures of our happy guy and we know he’s well taken care of when we are gone. Nicole is very trustworthy and Miko is always so very happy to see her :)”

“Leora is a professional. She was excellent with my giant breed puppy, who can be a lot! She was trustworthy, left the house picked up; even washed her bedding and took out the garbage! It is nice not to have to worry about your pet or your home when you are gone. We will absolutely use her again!”

Amy C.

“Being a first time user, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. They were excellent, kept me updated, sent pictures and videos throughout their stay. Will definitely be using them again!”

“There’s not enough wonderful things to say about Madelyn, she’s truly the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! The pups loved her, she was so incredibly respectful of our home while we were away, and she communicated often to let us know our babies were doing well. THANK YOU SO MUCH, very much looking forward to having you back soon! 💛”

“She did a wonderful job of keeping me informed and making my fur babies comfortable while I was away.”

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Ever since I was young I’ve had a dog in the house, to me your dog is your family and I strive to treat all my animals like family members. As of now I have a pretty open schedule including weekends. As for drop in visits I prefer to keep them in the Wausau area I can provide a crate/kennel for your dog if needed. I have a French Bulldog that is very high energy and excited when new people/dogs arrive, he is very vocal but he is friendly.He is more standoffish with people but does great with dogs. He is up to date on vaccinations and neutered. I have a large partially fenced in yard.As far as drop in visits I am able to make 2-3 visits a day to your home.

“Elicia was awesome! She took great care of my pets, was super reliable and had great communication. I didn’t worry about a thing while I was gone.”

About: We are an active family with 3 children (and one on the way) who love to play outside, take long walks, and even run with our dog. Animals are well-loved in our home and welcome on the furniture. I would love to include your pet in any exercise needs as well! We are available for walking pets before 8 am and after 4:30 p.m. every day. I can also do mid-day drop-ins if located in the Wausau area (best if northeast side of Wausau as I work in the Industrial park or near Merrill since my husband works there). We have a 2000 sq foot house, so there is plenty of room for more pets to house overnight. My kids absolutely love playing ball and walking the dog, too! We have an energetic black lab who loves to play. I believe in being active and playing as much as possible with my family (but am totally ok watching dogs who love to nap :) ).

“1st time having someone other then family watch our doggies. Josh made everything easy and was perfect with our dogs. They loved him. Josh sent us pictures while we were away and it just made us at ease. He communicated fast. Will honestly ask him again in the future.”

About: I come from a dog family, where we are on our 3rd dog. I love going to dog parks to let dogs run around, taking dogs for extended walks when needed, and even running alongside when training. I understand the amount of care and devotion that a pet needs, and I strive to strengthen that sense of attention with clients whether doing check-ins, boarding, or regular pet-care. I would like to begin dog-sitting in a professional manner. I currently dog sit for family and family friends in the mornings and early afternoons. I am very flexible and can accommodate last-minute requests, making scheduling with me very simple. I would like to incorporate dog sitting more into my schedule to keep myself active and to explore my community more since I recently relocated to Weston. When caring for pets, I love to hold myself and the pet to a schedule to reinforce a sense of understanding and consistency with myself and the pet-owner. I tend to have more alert care when in a clients home/pet since it is not my own, but care for everything like it would be my own.

“Katie watched our two pitties for three nights in our home, and she was absolutely fantastic to work with!! She came over a few weeks before the scheduled weekend to meet with us, and within a few minutes I knew she was going to love our pups as much as we do! Some people might have been hesitant to stay with bully breed type dogs, but Katie was confident and saw no issues after getting to know them. Her communication kept my nerves at bay, and she provided many cute pictures and updates throughout the weekend. Based on her pictures, I think she got plenty of snuggles! I felt very trusting of Katie and will absolutely book with her again!!”
