House Sitting in Ixonia

“Haydn did a great job with my pup. She spent a ton of time with her playing and taking her on walks. I got updates and pictures throughout the time period. The house was in great shape when I got home and and very clean. I would definately recomment Haydn and use her again!”

Angela N.

“Tara is exceptional when it comes to watching your fur babies! She watched our dog (Marley) while on vacation for a week. She provided plenty of updates with pictures that helped in knowing Marley was doing well. I would highly recommend Tara if you are in need of a pet sitter.”

Randy S.

“Outstanding communication and treated the dogs like if they were her own. The house was clean and orderly we would definitely love to have her back again.”

Brenda S.

“My experience in working with Taylor was excellent. Great communicator and most importantly cared for my 10yr lab while out in a work trip. Taylor went above and beyond what was required as she left the house spotless, and washed bedding and bathroom towels before leaving.”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.

“Katelyn watched my English Bulldog and Chocolate Lab while I was on vacation for several days. She took great care of my fur babies. She fed them, walked them, let them out several times, and gave them loves and pets. She sent good notes and several pictures and videos throughout the stay.”

Danielle R.

“Cindy was great! Great communications and took excellent care and attention to my dog while I was away. Valentine got daily walks and play time; the pictures sent to me was very reassuring.”

Merry C.

“Vonnie took very good care of all of our fur babies. She contacted us with updates and questions. She also watched our house and everything was nice and clean when we returned. Would definitely use her again and recommend her for your your fur babies.”

About: I have cared for animals my entire life and truly believe they are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with many different types of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, amphibians, and more. Animals are my passion, and caring for them genuinely brings me joy. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, feeding, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I would give my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for by someone who is experienced, attentive, and truly loves animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize making sure animals receive attentive and reliable care. I am currently available during the day, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekdays, I do drop off and pick up my two children from school (ages 8 and 10), but outside of those short times my schedule is very open. This allows me to provide consistent care, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Because I structure my day around the animals I’m caring for, you can feel confident that your pet will receive dependable attention and thoughtful care while you’re away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment. My home sits on nearly one acre with an unfenced yard, which allows for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Dogs can enjoy time outside on leash, and off-leash play can be discussed depending on the dog’s training and owner preferences. Inside my home, my own pets have separate spaces, which allows visiting animals to be safely and comfortably separated if needed. This helps ensure a calm and secure environment for everyone. I am also happy to care for pets in their own homes. I am very respectful of clients’ homes and always follow instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal routine. Whether in my home or yours, I provide attentive care including feeding, playtime, companionship, exercise, and administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away.

“Cooper is a kind, reliable pet sitter. I felt completely comfortable having him spend time with my dogs and stay in my home. I’d definitely work with him again and would encourage you to consider him for your needs as well.”

“Rebekah stayed with our 4 dogs and 1 cat this past weekend and honestly everything went perfect! Our dogs and cat were very well taken care of and our house looked as though she never stayed. She was very prompt with updates throughout the weekend and gave our fur babies so much love! We will be using her again in the future and would highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets in multiple homes. I regularly stay at three different families’ houses when they go out of town, and each family has two dogs that I care for by feeding, walking, playing with, and keeping them company. I also have two dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable around different personalities and routines. In addition, I help my grandma care for her Rover dogs and have experience helping train my own puppy. I’m dependable, organized, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I currently nanny during the day, but I still have plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits with the kiddos during the day, free most evenings and nights, and available on weekends as well. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine and is something I look forward to. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, litter boxes, walks, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet gets personalized care. Growing up with three cats and currently having two dogs of my own has made me very comfortable around animals and attentive to their different personalities and needs.

About: I have a 6 year old golden doodle! Love to be around all my family members dogs as well! I have dog sat a number of times for my neighbors! I’ll be taking online classes throughout the summer, so I’ll be available almost whenever. I will not have any other job so I should have a pretty open schedule. Besides a few trips up north occasionally my weeks are open! I will care for your dogs however you ask you me too! I have a golden doodle at home with my parents, so ideally being at the clients house would work best! I’d love to play with them, walk them, feed them, whatever they need!

About: I have been a CVT for 18 years, actively working at an emergency/specialty clinic. I can care for all ages and sizes of dogs and cats. I have a part time job that is flexible, my main focus is pet care and services. I am available most days and hours. I am pet sitting or caring for pets on a daily basis. I will utilize your house to care for your pets so they are more comfortable and less stressed. I will follow your daily routines to keep them feeling secure.

“Leora stayed at our house for a week to watch our dog while we were out of town and she was amazing! She provided regular updates and took great care of our dog - even including taking her to the vet and taking great care of her when she was sick. Our house was very tidy when we got home and our dog was happy! Thanks, Leora!”

About: We recently moved back to our roots to a spot right off South St. In Oconomowoc. We had our dog sitting business in San Diego, CA and will miss our furry friends so much! My husband and I both love animals very much and have the perfect set-up to host. We enjoy morning and evening cuddles and allow dogs on the couch and bed :) We will take care of your pup just the same as we care for our own. We have a 4 year old mutt that we adopted 3 years ago who has brought so much joy to our life! She loves to play and enjoys the dog park/hanging around other dogs as much as she can. She loves walks around the lake as I am sure your pup will too! We both have experience taking care of other dogs and have dog sit for many of our friends and family members for extended periods of time when they are out of town. We can provide pictures as little or as often as you would like. Excited to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work 4 days of the week and have every Thursday off. My husband works remotely from home so he is able to tend to your pups needs all day. This schedule works great for our pups that need frequent potty breaks and attention. We have long leashes attached to our back deck so the dogs can enjoy the sun and being outdoors as much or as little as they would like without having to worry about them wandering off! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as needed.

“Ramsey was wonderful. She not only took great care of our 2 senior dogs, our house and my fish. She also volunteered to refill our bird feeders which was not expected. She sent daily updates and pictures. We would definitely book with her again.”
