About: Until college, I had never lived in a home without a dog. And from a young age, I was taught everything I need to know about caring for them. Between my parents, we currently have five dogs, a cat, and four guinea pigs. My siblings and I have been working hard for years to care for our fur-babies, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I have class every weekday from 8am to 6pm, so I can’t work on weekdays, but I am completely free on weekends to care for your pup! During weekdays, my schedule limits my communication, which is why I offer same day booking and cancellation for the weekends! I can’t imagine a better way to spend my Saturday and Sunday! Back home, I care for all five dogs differently, based on their breed and personality. Our oldest mutt needs constant brushing, our golden retriever needs weekly shaving, our terrier needs to be leashed when outside, our labrador needs her thunder shirt for storms, and our chihuahua needs training to be friendlier to guests. I am prepared for all kinds of pups!

“Michael is exactly what his profile describes. I appreciated him taking time for a meet and greet prior to the scheduled walks. He was sensitive to the particular personalities of my senior pups and was even able to get the temperamental one out on the leash : ) ⭐️ Thank you for such great care, Michael!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats including in my own home and neighbors' as well throughout the past 15 years starting at a young age. My parents are excellent dog trainers and have taught me the essentials on how to take great care of pets. I have lots of experience feeding, walking, giving lots of pets, and ensuring the animals are healthy and living their best lives! I am currently a graduate student at UW-La Crosse on a one month clinical rotation in Cedarburg. I have many afternoons and full days Friday-Sundays free! My dogs currently have a fenced in yard that they love to run around and explore in. The cat loves to go outside sometimes, but it is essential to keep on eye on him to not go too far. If your yard is not fenced in, I have no problem keeping an eye on them while outside or keeping them on a leash. Lots of walks are key for great physical activity and health-I love to take mine to the dog park or on hikes. Making sure your pets know you care about them is also so important for their health!

“Ella was great while she walked Shiloh! Super flexible, communicative, and reliable! Really appreciate the help!”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life and I used to work on a farm and took care of many different animals in my life such as cows, horses, pigs. I can do walks and at home visits as well no matter the weather. I am a college student at UW-La Crosse. I have practice for sports Monday and Wednesday 6pm-8pm and am gone for some weekends. But I can help with during the week needs! I am very caring and compassionate and understand all animals have their own personalities. I will pet/cuddle with animals and love going for walks no matter the weather. All I need is to know your animals needs and I will take care of them!

“Thanks for treating him as if he was your own.”

About: I feel as a fellow dog mama to a siberian husky named Clover and a golden retriever named Harlow, the compassion and love we share for our fur babies is immensurable. I have had dogs for as long as I could remember and I now have two of my own that have been trained by me as well as my husband to do tricks as well as stay steady while we are walking! I have a daily routine with my dogs that I follow religiously whether its day or night. Dogs need that mental stimulation to be able to be a happy dog so we never skimp out on anything that has to do with exercising their brain as well as their body. This is what I plan to incorporate to any dogs that I babysit, walk, or even do drop in visits for. I have a fully fenced in yard with many enrichment toys for them outside as well as inside. We have lick mats for stimulation which we put a number of things on (I would ask about allergies and anything that isn't acceptable if your dog happens to be with me).

About: A lifetime of experience working with small animals, domestic pets, human children & livestock. I’ve been providing drop-in buddy care services for the last 10 years for friends, co-workers, family & clients. I am available for drop-ins, walks, road trips to the dog park, feeding, potty, & play as needed all day to ensure quality buddy care. I’m trained in first aide & CPR for dogs & cats. I always document adventures with your pet & take plenty of photos of our activities. I’m happy to accept special needs clients as well! You’ll enjoy your trip confident that AJ is taking great care of your best buddy.

About: Hello, I’m Ashlyn! If you were to ask anyone who knows me what I’m like, the first thing they would tell you is that I am animal OBSESSED! I have been surrounded by animals + cats alike my entire life. I currently own two big dogs (Pitbull +Aussie) + one small dog (Shih Tzu) and a cat! I strive to ensure your pet has the best experience possible while you are away. Coming from a pet parent myself I know the fear of leaving your bestfriend in someone else’s care can be a lot. That’s why I believe it is important to keep you in the loop for a stress-free time away, while also giving your animal plenty of enrichment and love to distract their worried mind while you are gone. I am experienced with a wide range of different kinds of dogs. From reactive, friendly, and anxious I have seen it all. I am more then willing to work through quirks your animal has in order to make their experience the best it can be! Some training skills I am well-versed in is leash training, socialization, basic manners, puppy care, senior care, and separation anxiety issues. I am so excited to meet your animal and give it the best experience possible! I currently work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. Hours vary week to week. Let me know your preferred schedule and we can make it work! I am absolutely able to leave work (distance permitting) during my break to let your animal outside and let out some energy if needed! After work I am able to give your pet some exercise whether that is a walk or playing with some toys after work. For house-sitting/ drop ins- I am a firm believer that following a similar routine to what the owner (you) follows will give your pet the least stressful experience possible. I will stick to your potty schedule for your animal as well as feeding. As for exercise, I am up to whatever your dog or cat prefers! I can go for walks, play fetch, provide enrichment with feeding time or play with toys. I am always willing to go to nearby park with your pup if preferred! Whatever your pet loves and makes them feel the safest! For dog-walking, I am willing to walk however long your animal needs! Does your pet have a favorite route? Let me know and I will follow it! Any nearby trails or parks? I am always down to visit them with your pup if wanted! I have personal experience with leash-pulling and reactivity so as long as I am made aware of these things and have met your dog, I am more then willing to work through these things on our walk! I am big on taking my dogs and shelter dogs to parks or big areas to run or explore. If this is something you would be interested in, I could totally take your dog out for an hour to exercise them!

About: I have always had pets in my home my whole life both dogs and cats I am definitely more of a dog person but I absolutely love caring for all animals and I know how difficult it can be depending on the animal my parents most recent dog was a handful he was in and out of several homes before finding his way to ours because of he’s very energetic and sometimes violent behavior but we turned him to a sweetie with time and good training. At first he was rather aggressive towards me and was very difficult to train because of how long he had gone without training which taught me a lot of tricks to deal with a difficult and aggressive dog. I love this job and I hope you’re pet will enjoy my company as much as I’ll enjoy theirs. I haven’t bathed a dog before but I have helped bathe a cat with flees and I’m down to learn anything. I do this full time so I am usually always free to offer the most reliable and consistent pet care experience for your pet and I’m always available unless I’m watching other pets. I’d love to do repeat visits to build a better relationship with you and your pet. I do the absolute best of my ability to ensure that your dog feels safe and happy when with me and I hope after meeting me you’re pet is excited to see me again.

About: Pets make me happy and have such a joyful presence. I love being around all animals and taking care of them. I grew up on a farm and have been around lots of animals all my life. I have been with pets as they have passed and been around all age groups of animals. My aunt trained and showed Australian Shepherds. I help her with that a lot. Animals do a service for us so I would love to help out with any sort of pet care and do a service for you! I am currently going to college. I have free time at different times of the day each day. I can totally make pretty much anything work though. I have dog sat many times. I love to bring my cat out side with me and play with him in the grass. I will feed pets, brush, pet, throw the frisbee or ball. I will make sure there environment is safe when on walks and at home.

About: Anything you need I’m here for it! I have cared for dogs with immobility and special needs, blindness and deafness, as well as rescues. I have walked, sitted and boarded for WAG for over four years. I work at a pet care facility from 4-10:30 I am able to come check on your pup in my home (I have a roommate that will check on fur babies and make sure they aren’t getting into anything. I have my son the second and fourth week of each month for those whose pets are not child friendly. Overnights are more than welcome whether he is here or not because he gets in his high chair after he is done playing in his room when he wakes up so he’s not in their way until about 9:30 AM! I have a giant fenced yard and everything is typically put up due to having kids around the house and a habit of making sure everything is put away.

About: Hi there! My name is Cecilia, and caring for animals—especially dogs—is one of the greatest joys in my life. I have two beloved dogs back in my hometown: a sweet 15-and-a-half-year-old poodle–bichon mix and a 6-year-old goldendoodle with disabilities. They mean the world to me, and being away from them has only deepened my passion for caring for other people’s furry family members. Last summer, I had the privilege of working at a luxury dog boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and unique needs—including those requiring extra patience and special attention. I was trained to read canine body language and behavior, and I learned how to adapt my approach to help each dog—whether a bouncy puppy or a wise senior—feel safe, calm, and emotionally and physically fulfilled. Animals hold a truly special place in my heart. I’m the type of person who pulls over to help a turtle cross the road, stops to meet a cute dog on the sidewalk, or sits with a stray cat to make sure it’s fed. Every animal encounter matters to me. I believe animals are so much more than companions—they’re a vital part of our lives. Their unique personalities and deep bonds bring joy, purpose, and connection, and I feel genuinely honored every time I get to spend time with them. Whether your pup needs a gentle, attentive sitter, an energetic walking buddy, or just someone to love on them like their own family would—I’m here, and I can’t wait to meet them! My schedule is quite variable yet flexible, as I am currently working part-time and attending school to become an EMT. I am often available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and during the evenings on weekdays, except Mondays and Wednesdays. Depending on my schedule week to week, I may also be able to do check-ins and dog walking during the day. I’m more than happy to tailor my care to meet your dog’s individual needs—whatever that may look like. Whether your pup requires leashed outings only or enjoys the freedom of a fenced-in yard, I’ll follow your preferences closely to ensure their comfort and safety. I want your dog to feel like they’re with family while in my care, and I’m fully committed to respecting both their routines and your home. You can also count on regular updates and plenty of photos, so you feel connected and reassured every step of the way.

About: If you’re looking for someone reliable AND has a burning love for all types of animals, I’m your gal! I've taken care of animals ever since I was little - I grew up in a house chock full of dogs, cats, and even rats! I’m a college graduate, and as soon as I had a house of my own and a big yard I got my own dog, Milo. He is a one year old german shepherd and I raised him from 8 weeks old. We go on two forty five minute walks a day and I give him plenty of mental enrichment as he loves to learn new tricks and play with toys. From senior dogs to young puppies, I have lots of experience with both and can care for your pet to the highest degree. I potty trained him in 2 weeks when he was a baby and I can definitely help train your pup! I’ll make sure to treat them like my own! Walks, snuggles, independent playtime, socialization, training, one-on-one time, photos etc. included with service. I am a part time server, full time side hustlist so your pet will get lots of attention. I live on a quiet street with lots of yard space and I can’t wait to care for your pet and make life long friends with your family and dog! I am open to a home visit prior to booking. Message me with any questions. Can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Message me with any questions. I'm currently working part time, so my schedule is very flexible! I am available most weekdays to let your dog out, walk them, play with them, or whatever you require. Weekends I tend to work nights but it also depends. I have one german shepherd who loves to play and also loves to snooze. He will keep your fur babies company as he loves other dogs! I also have a large yard and am in walking distance of a local park where we can go to play.
