Pet Sitting in Legend Lake

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: My family adopted our first dog when I was four years old. We adopted a second dog a few years later, and ended up always having three dogs! My parents still have three dogs, and a cat that I take care of for them. Additionally, I grew up on a mini-farm with chickens, ducks, rabbits, and goats. I moved out of my parents home 5 years ago. Since then, I have house sat for my best friend & her husband for their female dog, two cats (one male, one female) and their rabbit. Their female cat has anxiety medication I must apply to her ear every morning, and the male cat has had pills he had to take. I’m experienced with cleaning the litter boxes, cleaning the rabbit cage, and feeding on a schedule. I have also house sat for my friend’s mother, for her female cat and female dog. In 2022, I adopted two kittens of my own and find so much joy in learning who they are and caring for them. I love spending time with pets of all kinds and learning their personalities! I work full time from home, Monday through Friday, with a typical 7-4 schedule. I am available during lunch breaks and after work for walks! I am in the Oconto Falls area and fully aware of dog parks and walking areas! I love going on walks and enjoying scenery and nature. If I need to travel to take a pet to a dog park or trail, I have a SUV with a comfortable backseat and rear area.

About: I am 44 years old, have 3 kids, 3 grandchildren and love animals. I have 1 dog and 3 outside cats. I would love to add other dogs to play with and teach everyday. I own my house and have ample running around space and like taking walks and going swimming with the pups. I enjoy all breeds of dogs and don't discriminate against size or age. Please help me to find some friends to get to know and play with. I am currently laid off from work and can give your animals all the attention that they would need and deserve. I also have a minivan, so transporting multiple animals isn’t a problem. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do leash in the yard and go to a spot down the road from my house that has a fenced in area for them to run with no other animals around.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets (birds, dogs, cats and even fish) since I was 5. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. I’m currently working full time only 4 days a week. I have every Wednesday off and the weekends. I’m down by 3:00. I like to go scuba diving and I’m learning how to produce music and DJ. My pets get lots of love and attention every day. The cat litters are always scooped daily and fed as well. I’m sorta generous with the treats too lol. I would treat your home like my own. Side notes, my cats follow me to every room I’m in. I got 3 of them

About: Life-long animal lover, zoo volunteer, and animal rescuer who would love to help you out with your pets. I grew up with an active breed of dog, we had Brittanys. I spent my weekends as a child, showing dogs and field trialing. When my own kids were little, we fostered senior dogs until they found a forever family. We adopted several stray kittens, that showed up in our barn and loved them until they died of old age. I am experienced with puppies, adults and senior dogs, let me help you out with a check in or walk. I am fortunate to have partial summers off. I would like to help you out while you are away. Feel free to reach out if you need to schedule a time that isn't listed. I will try to accommodate if at all possible. Safety is my number one priority for your pet, your home and others in your neighborhood. Let me know what your pets are used to and I will try to be routine as possible. I will use positive reinforcement to help your dog stay engaged and not lonely.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, so understanding their needs and behavior comes naturally to me. I am very patient and can read dogs well, making sure they feel comfortable and safe in my care. More than just a job, pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy because I truly love animals. I’m not doing this just for the money—I miss my own dogs back home, and spending time with pets brings me happiness. Every dog I care for will be treated like family, receiving love, attention, and the care they deserve. With me, your pet will feel at home. I have a flexible schedule because I work independently and can choose my own hours. This allows me to be available for pet sitting and dog walking at various times throughout the day. I can adjust my schedule to meet the needs of pet owners, making sure their pets get the care and attention they deserve. This flexibility is one of the reasons why pet sitting is a perfect fit for me. I live in an apartment without any pets, making it a calm and comfortable environment for dogs. I have a roommate who also loves animals, so your pet will be surrounded by friendly energy. There is a yard available, although it isn’t fenced in, but I live in a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks and walking-friendly areas where your dog can enjoy safe and fun walks.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, love animals, provide love and affectionate care for them. Currently care for 1 dog, 6 cats and 6 bunnies. I'm passionate about animal care. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most holidays, or weekends. Enjoy playing and exercising with pets. 🩷💚 I can give plenty of exercise and playtime. I will brush dogs and cats. Love ❤️ to cuddle and comfort them throughout my time with them.

About: Over my 12 years of experience, I have pet sit all types of different animals for several neighbors, friends, and family members…including my aunt’s 9 cats. I currently am working part time as I am in college which my college schedule is now very flexible for the fall semester. I wanted another low stress job I would enjoy so I figured why not be around adorable pets ! I treat all pets with kindness and the respect they all deserve. I emphasize their emotions with how they must feel with their owner gone and try to give them extra love and attention to help.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs around at my grandmas all my life. I’ve had one dog of my own and a foster we had for awhile when I was younger. I’ve helped my grandma take care of puppies. I volunteer at a rescue where they take in all ages of dogs. I clean and socialize with them. I’m studying/learning more about training dogs. I’m not currently working. I might be getting a part-time job soon, fingers crossed, but that will be nights. I’ll have the whole day to fit in pet care. To care for pets I watch how they are doing as I approach. Check their food if they ‘free feed’ and see if their water bowl is clean/fresh. See if their space is clean, such as a litter box if it’s cats. Lastly, socialize with them and make sure they have some kind of enrichment that could entertain them.

“Thank you again”

About: Hello all, I’m Larissa! I’ve been working with animals for the past 5 years in many different ways and currently am in school for Vet Med. I have a lot of experience with a lot of different types, temperaments, and ages of furry and non-furry friends and would be more than able and happy to provide any special care your babies may need! I currently work part time at an animal shelter and do school on some of my of my off days but I still have many days a week where I am available for walk to full-time around the clock care for your babies. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all client instructions, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and home access rules. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, avoid leaving out harmful items, and keep a close eye on your pet’s behavior and comfort. I also send regular updates so you always know your furry friend is safe, happy, and in great hands.

“I am late with writing this review but Cassidy was amazing once again and was able to help us out somewhat short notice when we had to make plans to take our new puppy to Madison for a Dr visit. Silas and Stella remembered her from her drop in back in October and we are so thankful she was available again! She does great with our gentle giants! We highly recommend Cassidy and will definitely be booking her again!!”

About: My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have had dogs in my family since I was 10. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so I can work with many other time requests and schedules. I can care for your pet on weekends also. I have a very large yard for your dog to play in and I have 2 friendly dogs to keep them company. I can crate your pet also if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, cows etc since I was little. I worked at the Crivitz Countryside Veterinary Clinic for 5 years right out of high school. I want to help others with their pets needs just as I would want the help in return. I live in Shawano, but work in Howard/Green Bay Mon-Friday. I’m able to take care of pet needs in either location, anywhere in between, or slightly past those points! 😊❤️ On weekends I have more availability to do multiple drop in visits and more frequent dog walks. Daycare/Boarding is convenient for nonstop snuggles, chit chats, fetch, walks, treats, and a watchful eye on your fur babies. 10 acres with a pond/river wooded backyard. I have one dog who is high energy, but independent enough to do her own thing. She loves to play fetch, walk the trails in the woods, and car rides. I will always introduce my dog to yours through a baby gate, once they get smells/intro’s over with I like to have them meet outside for a potty break, this method takes the protective instincts away. Guards come down. A little trick I learned from working at the Vet Clinic that hasn’t let me down yet. I can keep them separate from one another also if you wish/request. Though my dog is a fixed/spayed female. I have a split level 4 bedroom house that allows a lot of space in the two living room areas in case your pet prefers their own space to eat/protective. I live 8 min from the Shawano dog park and less than 5 min from the dog beach.

About: I’ve owned cats since I was kid and now have a 6 month old black lab that LOVES to play with other animals. We take plenty of outside breaks throughout the day, as well as going to fun parks/ walking trails. I am a nurse, so I only work about 1-3 days a week. I have a pretty open schedule otherwise that I’m looking to fill with taking care of your pet! We have a large unfenced yard and are close to a few good walking trails and walking destinations. Or if your pet is not as active, we love a good relaxed day at home as well!

“Karissa did a great job taking care of my cat. Sent me pictures daily with check in. I plan on using her service again in the future.”
