About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and attention I give to every pet in my care. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy learning the ropes or a sweet senior needing extra support, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with basic puppy training, including leash manners, crate comfort, and potty routines. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs—administering medication, helping with mobility, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet won’t just get a sitter—they’ll get a new friend who truly cares, communicates well, and treats them like family. As a student with a very flexible school schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet care pretty easily—as long as I have a little notice, I can make it work! I love spending time with animals, whether it's getting outside for a good walk or just hanging out at home. On weekends, you can usually find me curled up with a furry friend or two—it’s honestly my favorite way to relax. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and right at home—whether that means sticking to their usual routine, keeping their environment calm, or giving them extra one-on-one attention. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to walk times and any special quirks your pet may have. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with lots of snuggle spots and safe spaces to relax. Building trust with both pets and their people is important to me, and I always aim to communicate clearly and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you're away.
About: PLEASE DO NOT MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE PENDING REQUESTS TO OTHER SITTERS. Please understand that when you send me a request, I have to turn down other potential clients while I wait for you to confirm. Thanks in advance for being a considerate neighbor and human. I had dogs all through childhood and college, and miss having a four-legged friend around! Sadly, my own work travel schedule prevents me from having a doggo of my own right now, so I thought that it would be a good compromise to lend a hand to other frequent flyers who love their pup too much to put them in the kennel. Rest assured that your dog will not get just a 15-minute lap around the block to pee, I'll take him or her to the dog park, on a hike, or if your pup is more low-key, I'll totally snuggle on the couch. My pet ownership experience is mostly with big dogs (sheperds), so that's definitely my soft spot, but I've taken care of all breeds and sizes through volunteering as a foster with a rescue group in my former home of Washington, DC. I have a reliable car, so it's easy for me to get to your place to check in a couple of times a day. I work from home, so I am pretty flexible. I do live with a sassy cat, but we live in a big duplex where pets can be separated if needed. I will strive to stick to your pet's usual routine whether I am sitting at your home or boarding in my own home. They are already missing their humans, and maintaining their routine gives them one less thing to be anxious about.
About: I grew up with a chocolate lab, so I have experience from taking care of her. I also have several years experience dog sitting for friends and families pets. I work full time during the week, but I am available to do evening/overnight care during the week, and all day care on the weekends. I have had experience pet sitting in a variety of environments. So I am flexible in adjusting my care based on your or your pet's needs.
“Elyzabeth cares about my cats and their well being in the same way I would. She is trustworthy and has a good heart. She makes looking after my cats her priority. I’m so appreciative of her. Thank you for your help and continued support of my furry munchkins.”
About: ## INTRODUCTION Howdy there, thanks for choosing my Rover! I go by Billy! First things first — My highest priority is the safety and well-being of any dog in my care. Outside of that, I'm also big on making sure they have a blast, are loved, and feel secure in my home. I am energetic and warm, yet firm. I've owned and raised 4 dogs over the course of 18 years, from puppydom to old age, and have cared for many more. I am adept at handling dogs large and small - physically and training-wise. ## SCHEDULE I am fortunate to have a highly flexible schedule. Your dog will always be safe by my side. I’m quite fond of dogs, so it’s a joy for me to spend my time in this way. ## APPROACH TO CARE I want to understand the needs and expected behaviors of any pet in my care, given your specific guidance and instructions. I am highly communicative and err on the side of caution, as your doggo’s safety and well-being are absolutely the highest priority for me. I have a highly flexible schedule since I'm in the middle of a job search, so I'll have all the time in the world to hang, play with, and co-work with your pup! I have the entire upper floor of my house available for your dog to lounge and roam in, equipped with multiple dog beds and lots of toys. There's also a fenced yard in the back whose concretedness is optimal for ball bouncing and catching, keep away, chasing, and more!
“Caitlin was a great communicator and took great care of my pup while I was away.”
“Jeremy was an amazing cat sitter! Both my cats were immediately comfortable and really grew to like Jeremy’s daily visits and play time. Super responsive and always sending lots of pics for me to check in on- it’s was such a relief to have them in Jeremy’s care. Highly recommend!!!”
“We are so glad Kristine was available on Christmas Day to check on our cat. She came a few days prior on late notice for a meet and greet and provided a nice update!”
“So thankful to have found Julie! She looks after our cats with such love, sending photos each visit! We will never use anyone else for our cat care.”
About: I’ve trained my own dogs since childhood, and I’ve also helped friends teach their dogs basic commands like sit, stay, lay down, and touch. I’m patient, consistent, and genuinely enjoy helping pets feel safe, happy, and well-behaved. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs a gentler pace, I adjust my care to meet their needs. I am a student, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I’m happy to help with your pets whenever you need— weekdays, weekends, mornings, and evenings. I would love to help however I can for your pet, using leashes, crates, toys, etc in your pet’s home for what makes them comfortable
About: Hi! I’m Kat. I have experience looking after animals of all kinds - dogs (big and small), cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, turtles, you name it. I have three cats at home who get lovingly spoiled every day, and I have experience dog walking, dog-sitting (included overnight stays), and cat-sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I have a genuine love for all types of animals, and I put their well-being, care, and enrichment above all else. I work from home as a jewelry maker, so my schedule during the week is flexible as can be. I can easily make time for morning, midday, and evening visits. I am detail-oriented and will follow any given care instructions to the letter. My goal is to treat your pet just like you would, with the same love and attention you give them every day.
“Erica was very thorough and did a wonderful job taking care of Cooper at lunchtime. You can definitely tell she cares about dogs. We would recommend her and use her again to care for our pup.”
About: Hi! My name is Sarah and I have 2+ years in the veterinary field. I have extensive experience administering medication to dogs and cats. As well, as caring for senior pets. If you have a pet with special needs, I am your gal. I, myself, have a senior cat and know how important it is to have a petsitter you can rely on and trust. Additionally, I have over four years experience petsitting for private clients. I have routinely petsat for over a week while my clients were on vacation. One of my clients had four dogs and up to eight cats while I was there. I love a challenge so please message me and we can arrange a time to chat about your pet needs! I am attending graduate school in the fall and would like this to be my side hustle. I am available every morning and early afternoon. Additionally, I can work on the weekends. Safety is extremely important to me. Before I walk your dog or petsit overnight we will have a discussion about your pets needs and what you are most worried about. Like I mentioned, I have extensive experience walking and watching dogs but every dog is different and I am committed to getting to know them.
About: **update** I’ve moved neighborhoods! I now live near Wauwatosa! I do have a fenced in yard! I’ll still take clients in Bayview too! ☺️☺️ I had a dog in my house every since I was in elementary school, and loved each one of them more than anything in the world. I have been dog sitting since my mid 20s, and thoroughly enjoy taking care of and loving dogs of all sizes! I work close to home Wednesday through Sunday, no more than 7 hours at a time. That leaves plenty of time for several walks, playtime and the dog park(if allowed). I live 2 blocks from several parks and a 10 minute drive to 3 dog parks. Your pup(s) will get plenty of exercise and have free roam of my house, and can sleep wherever they choose including the furniture and beds(unless otherwise instructed:) )
About: Hi! I'm Nikki, a traveling teacher with a passion for exploring the world and building relationships. I've created my own tutoring business where I offer beginner Spanish lessons for kids and also assist families enrolled in virtual learning. I spend the summer and fall living in Milwaukee, WI close to family and friends, but once Jack Frost starts creeping in I head towards warmer weather. While my nomadic lifestyle does not allow me to have a pet of my own right now, I take great pride in being able to care for the pets of others. Growing up, my days were spent playing with and caring for animals. We had goats, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, turtles, and a wiener dog who I trained to do dog agility. Nowadays, I'm the go to dog and cat sitter for family and friends when they need someone to watch their pets. I have experience caring for puppies and kittens as well as senior pets and feel comfortable administering medications if needed. I'm a teacher who now works remotely now! I have a pretty flexible teaching schedule with many breaks built in throughout the day. Sticking to a routine feeding schedule and letting dogs out to use the bathroom should not be an issue. I find that pets tend to be much more comfortable in their own environment, especially when meeting a new person! I am pretty proud of my ability to quickly build rapport with the pets I am sitting and really do want them to transition easily while you are away. I'm a clean and organized individual so you can rest assured your pets, plants, and overall home will be in good hands while you're away.

7. Ashley W.
“Ashley is quite the do lover. She no only loves dogs but has tons of energy for those who like to be super active. In the time I have known Ashley she has not only watched dogs I've had and done an excellent job but she is also a former foster with a local dog rescue. When fostering with an off transport rescue you rarely know what to expect and Ashley has shown that she can care for many types of dogs of varying temperaments. The most memorable was very anxious and mouthy beagle who was later put on Prozac to help with her temperament and behavior. Ashley fostered Tallulah until she was adopted to later be returned multiple times because people just couldn't deal with the challenge that Ashley was. If I had a personal dog i would not only trust Ashley with its care but not worry because I know she would do anything she could to assure it's comfort and care.”

19. Molly O.
“Molly & I have been friends for 20 years and of that 20, 12 of them with my sweet dogs. My kids absolutely adore Aunt Molly! (To the point that they get upset when she’s on speaker phone & not actually in the house) She is patient, never yells or scolds & is so kind to them. Tons of attention & so much petting I think they might go bald! They listen to her on walks and I truly think they just want to be around her. Molly has dog sat for several friends and I can honestly say the dog has a little trouble separating from her and going back to their owners ! Molly will be an excellent sitter. She will provide regular feedings, lots of walks and TONS of love!!”
20. Nikki G.
