House Sitting in Holy Cross

“Our Ellie had a great time with Melody. When we arrived home she was in great spirits and in a good mood. We loved getting photos and updates while we were away and knew our pup was in good hands.”

“Tarah was amazing with our quirky doggo. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Tarah provided updates and loved on our pup while we were away for a family getaway. Upon returning home, we could tell puppers was anxiety free and our home was in excellent order. 1000% would use Tarah again.”

“Julie went above and beyond when it came to our pups. Aside from the wonderful videos and pictures, she provided us with a unique understanding of what our dogs were thinking and how they viewed things. We felt comfortable the entire time we were gone and we will absolutely be using Julie’s services in the future. We HIGHLY recommend you work with Julie for your needs!”

“Jeanee is amazing! She took the best care of our pets, provided frequent updates, and was honestly a joy to communicate with! She will most definitely be my first choice for future pet sitting needs.”

About: I recently lost my senior cat, Tigger. He passed away in August 2025. Tigger was very sick. I spent multiple hours per day providing care. Tigger had a chronic digestive illness that required care from someone who had critical attention to detail. I administered his medications every 12 hours, cleaned him up after he used the litter-box, provided him emotional support, syringe fed him wet food during his final days, and more. I currently work in the healthcare field as a clinical pharmacist (for humans). I truly understand how important it is not only for humans to have their medications on time, but for animals to have their care on time as well. I dedicated an entire 10 months of my life to help Tigger live those 10 extra months. My timeliness, organizational skills, and attention to details allowed me to provide the best care for Tigger. I have been devastated since his passing. I currently still have 2 cats at home (Apollo + Moon). They're the sweetest boys and make my life very full. I lived with cats almost my entire life, and I know how important it is to keep their daily schedule the same. I always make pet care a priority. My animals (and the ones I am looking after) are the first things on my mind. Taking care of animals is more than just a job, it is now my lifestyle. 💕 I always make sure the animals have access to clean, cool, fresh water. That is the most important task, that I will always check on first. Secondly, it is most important to ensure each animal has appropriate access to food in the quantity and quality needed for them to maintain a healthy life. I have experience with feline prescription food diets, and understand the importance to not deviate from their special food. Thirdly, it is important that animals have access to a clean and stress free potty area. As a cat mom myself, I am constantly cleaning the littler box area for my own fur children to ensure they have a tidy space to use the bathroom.

“Amanda was amazing with my boys. She was reliable checked in and sent lots of pics, and the boys loved her we have already booked her for Christmas!”

About: As I said in my headline, I work from home so it is easy for me to pack my stuff up and come care for your pets while you are away. If they will be staying with me they will get spoiled with attention all day. Our backyard is not fenced in but we have a line off our back door from when we had a dog for when nature calls. I am also freely able to let them out for potty breaks while working. My work schedule is very flexible to take your pets for walks or stop in. I currently watch my friends animals when they are away. One household is 2 dogs and 2 cats and the other is just a cat. One of the dogs I have experience administering medication with and dealing with a anxious dog. I also frequently watch a families Boxer when they have errands to run or want to go out for the evening.

“Patty took great care of our dog Remy in our house! It was the first time we went away since we moved a year and a half ago, and we really appreciated Patty coming by for a meet and greet before we left. Patty kept in touch while we were away and sent us photos and updates of Remy so we knew she was happy and getting lots of love! Highly recommend Patty!”

“Murphy was great with my animals. She was attentive, responsive and I felt comfortable leaving for the weekend knowing my animals were in good hands!”

About: Hi! My name is Taylor, I’m a lifelong animal lover with lots of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I work full‑time and am in the office four days a week, with remote work on Fridays, which gives me flexibility at the end of the week and allows me to spend quality time with the pets I’m caring for. I grew up with two golden doodles and a mini pinscher poodle, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I also have experience fostering kittens and caring for multiple pets at once. At home, I have two cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with feline care, routines, and personalities as well. I live in Port Washington and love taking dogs on neighborhood walks or to nearby parks for some fresh air and exercise. Whether your pet needs walks, overnight care, or just some extra company and attention, I’d love to help and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I work full-time remotely, so I’m available for dogsitting during the day! My work will just need to come with me, but your pup will still get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether at your home or on a walk, I stick to their routine, give plenty of attention, and keep them safe. I’ll also send updates, so you know they’re happy and well cared for!

“Yana is an amazing sitter. She was very flexible when our schedule changed and communicated very clearly. I can’t say enough good things about our experience! Yana went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt comfortable and cared for.”

“Emma was AMAZING! 3 Great Danes and she handled their clumsy-ness and lap dog tenancies without a hitch. My stupid dogs ran off to the neighbors house and had an incident with the neighbor dog. She handled the situation perfectly and kept my dogs, the neighbor and their dog, and myself feeling safe about the incident the rest of booking. When I got home and apologized again to my neighbor, they said that Emma did great the whole time and were impressed with the way she handled things. 10/10 would recommend Emma!!”

“Jasmine was great- she provided updates & made sure both our dogs were loved on while we were gone. We look forward to having her back!”

Katie K.

“Larissa was great! We had some last minute schedule changes and she was super accommodating. The dogs loved her and she took great care of our home. We would definitely book Larissa again!”

Emily P.

“Michael had been wonderful and he has helped us out with our two dogs several times. He communicates well and my dogs have been so happy having him stay with them while we are gone. Would recommend him to take care of your pets.”

About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 19. We love to go on hikes, cuddle and crochet on the couch, and each snacks. Having a dog at such a young age made me realize how much work a pet is. I love the calming nature of dogs and have patience with anything they throw at me. I work full time during graphic design and marketing so nights, weekends, and mornings work best for me. I love hiking, yoga and crocheting. In the summer I spend most of my time outdoors, so if your dog loves hikes we’d be perfect for each other. I will not bring your dog to my house since my furry friend doesn’t get along with other dogs. I will always make sure they are hooked up inside the house before and after a walk. I will always grab small training treats incase walks or strangers are not your dogs favorite.

About: I love walking and with a dog it's even better! I enjoy being outside and spending time with dogs. I will treat your dog as if it were my own, give him/her special attention, and a walk/home while you are away. Dogs have a special place in my heart and I enjoy spending time with other people's dogs, taking them for walks, and giving your dog love and attention. I have had experience walking dogs and taking care of dogs throughout my life. I have 2 rescue dogs are both beagles. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast and love taking them for hikes in the woods, on trails in state parks, and around the neighborhood. I am available for all the services Rover offers. I can board/watch your dogs at my home. I would love to meet you and your dog! I am a teacher and love coming home to my 2 dogs. We spend a lot of time outside and go for two walks a day. I have a fenced in backyard that is about a 1/2 of an acre. Our fence is 6 feet high. I have two dogs myself, so we have lots of treats and toys as well as extra dog beds. I am also a foster for the Humane Society, Midwest BREW, and Fluffy Dog Wellness & Rescue. I have fostered over 20 dogs in my home of all different breeds and ages. I find it really rewarding!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies requiring training and socialization to senior dogs needing patience and special attention. My background includes administering medications, handling dietary restrictions, and understanding behavioral cues to ensure each dog feels safe and loved. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, as I prioritize time for walks, play, feeding, and attention to each pet’s specific needs. I structure my day to ensure pets get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and relaxation. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday play session, or evening cuddle, I integrate pet care seamlessly into my schedule, treating each pet as if they were my own. I’m a college student and love decompressing with a furry friend. Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. In my home, pets have access to cozy resting spots, plenty of toys, and supervised playtime in a secure space. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly area and follow your specific instructions for feeding, routines, and special needs. I live on 4 acres of farmland and love taking dogs out for playtime. When caring for pets in your home, I ensure their daily routines remain consistent, providing familiar comforts and maintaining their usual feeding, walking, and play schedules. I also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you’re always in the loop. My goal is to give your pet the care and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life. I've always had dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, you name it! I have been picking up gigs dog/cat sitting since I was 12. My family, friends, and neighbors have had my help and continue to use me as their first option when help is needed! I'd love to get to know your furry friend :) I currently work part-time from 5pm-10pm Monday thru Friday for the summer, so I am available to spend the morning and midday's playing, feeding, walking, and watching your pet! I have 2 dogs (large and small) and 4 cats of my own. With this, I won't offer in home care due to the stress this can cause your pet. However, I am comfortable with leashing, caging, giving meds, scooping liter pans, and all other responsibilities that come with pet care!

About: You can count on me to provide love and care for your pet. Experience with walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. I have taken care of puppies under 1 year old all the way to senior dogs. Flexible schedule, great communication, and a happy environment your dog will love while you’re away and relaxed. No doubt your dog will feel like family. I don’t have a job at the moment, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available any day of the week after 11am. I have a fenced yard and three fur babies that I monitor at all times. In a client’s home, I will keep doors secured, monitor them, and make sure they feel comfortable. For walks, I use secure leashes, stay aware of surroundings, and avoid interactions with other animals.
