Pet Sitting in Marathon

“This is the second time that I’ve utilized Mackenzie’s dog sitting services and she did an excellent job once again. I am thankful that I can go out of town and not have anxiety about how my pets are doing. Mackenzie always shares photos of the pets eating, playing, and getting cuddles from her to show that they are doing perfectly fine. I will continue using Mackenzie’s sitting services in the future when needed.”

“Haley was superb as a pet visitor. She arrived everyday at the appropriate time as requested by us. Took photos of our beloved kitty and fed and looked after Mary, our semi-feral cat. It's amazing she was able to get the photos since Mary is so skittish, but she did and we loved seeing them while we were away. Haley was as nice in person as she was responsible and punctual. We highly recommend her and hope she is available next time we need a pet visitor!”

She came and did a meet and greet with our fur babies last week and was right on time for both drop in visits and gave wonderful updates and pics of both. I will definitely be requesting Cassidy for additional drop ins in the future!”

About: I have a strong attention to detail and an even stronger passion for animals. I'm comfortable with all breeds. I've learned a lot about dog training and dog reactivity in the last 3 years with my own dog. I'm willing to take special requests to care for your furry friend better than you could imagine! I have a 3 year old German Shepherd that I care for daily with mental stimulation, physical exercise, and lots of love. I am currently available evenings and weekends to care for your furry friends! I like to lead with respect and integrity and treat your space with the privacy and respect it deserves. I'm looking to build a future working with animals, and I'd be grateful for the opportunity to care for your beloved pets.

“Shane was great! He came ahead of time to meet our animals and was on time for both visits. He is a natural with both dogs and cats and exceeded our expectations! Will use Shane again, for sure!”

About: Together we both have extensive experience with dogs of all ages and types. We have experience raising puppies, including those being raised to be future service dogs. Additionally, we have experience working with special needs dogs that are blind or require daily insulin treatment. We currently have two dogs, a 5 year old black lab and a 2 year old golden retriever. Both are highly socialized and get along well with dogs of all sizes/personalities. Ochai is well-known at the Rib Mountain dog park as being one of the sweetest dogs to people and dogs alike. We both volunteer our time at the Humane Society of Marathon County. Furthering our experiences with dogs of many backgrounds and temperaments. You may see a featured adoptable dog that is currently at the shelter in our photos. This dog is one we personally think may be a great addition to a family, especially one that already has a dog! Sometimes we send our dogs to daycare so we can open up our home to a shelter dog for the day and give them the relaxing day they deserve so much. Of course, on the days we do this, we aren't available to offer daycare/boarding. If you have a HSMC graduate pup from May 2023 onward we would love to see our old friends again! Please let us know and we will offer a free day of boarding or daycare as a token of appreciation for adopting a HSMC pup! When we confirm a booking you should know that at least one of us will likely be with your dog at all times, day or night. We both work from home quite often and before confirming a reservation we will check/adjust our schedules to make sure someone is going to be home during the day. It is important to your pup's experience and safety that someone is watching them at all times. NEW! Tractive GPS Tracking The safety and wellbeing of your dog is always important to us and we know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet behind. That is why we have added a GPS tracker to utilize. Not only will your furry loved one's location always be known at any given second, but we can also track their health to make sure they are doing well during their stay. -We currently only have one device, so it is not a guarantee your dog will be utilizing it during their stay. If you would like to guarantee it for your pup during their stay, we can accommodate these types of requests at the time of booking for $5/night or $25/stay. -We can share access to the tracker so you can know your pups location at any time and can check in on their health. It will show various information like their sleep activity and exercise information. This is only available if you reserve the tracker ahead of their stay. ---NEW! We are now privately insured outside of Rover. This allows additional and even more comprehensive coverage for your pup while they stay with us. Through PSA we are able to offer up to $2,500 in deductible free veterinary care if your pup gets hurt/ill.--- Our house features a spacious half acre yard that is fully fenced in. You will get plenty of pictures and updates of your pup under our care. Please let us know the frequency of pictures/updates you would like and we will be happy to show you how your pup is doing. If the weather is nice, I will try to get outside and take some pictures with an actual camera for you to enjoy. Our goal is to provide quality care and take care of your pup just as much as we do our own. We love helping people and having them know their pup is being well cared for when you can't be with them.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid and have over 6 years of professional experience. I’ve worked with all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, puppies, special needs animals, and working breeds. I also know pet first aid and have experience with basic training, so I’m confident handling a variety of situations. I am a stay at home mom, and can fit into whatever your schedule needs. I am available for boarding and daycare, and mornings during weekdays for drop-ins and dog walking. I have two friendly dogs. I like to keep pets on a familiar routine with feeding time, play time, and walks, while in my care. Everyone gets the attention they deserve, and I am always at home. I will keep you updated with messages and pictures.

About: My family and I have had cats and dogs, fish, frogs, and a rabbit in the past 21 years. I also have furry nephews that I periodically sit for, walk and check in on. My ideal job is hanging out with animals! I can take care of your fur babies from 9am to 5pm during the week. I can do some weekend work with a few days notice. I am available about 15-20 hours a week but can be negotiable for vacations, etc. I can follow the routine you have laid out for me in your home. I can give meds, play with, walk in your neighborhood for familiarity, take your pet to the groomer you are already using, and give lots of love.
