“This was my first experience having a house sitter take care of my dogs while I was away. Deanne is such a nice person and was wonderful with my dogs! She kept me updated and sent pictures throughout the weekend. I look forward to working with her again.”

“We had Kya over our house to watch our cat, Juniper, for 5 days and she did an amazing job and was with her 24/7 which I appreciated. Our Juniper is very shy, but thanks to Kya’s kindness and patience, she warmed up. As promised, she sent daily updates and photos and even took the trash out for us while we were gone. Kya even went above and beyond to ensure the house was immaculate and to wash the bed sheets for the guest room she stayed in, which was so kind of her! If you’re looking for a caring sitter, don’t hesitate to reach out to her. She’s definitely a gem!”

“I received multiple pictures of Maxximus and Lola and messages from Sarah while I was away. This reassurance allowed me to enjoy my vacation. She also kept the house organized for my return. Thank you!!!”

“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”

“Declan was amazing with our two dogs. He sent pictures during their walks and playtime and communication was awesome. We would have him again and highly recommend him to others.”


About: I have had multiple pets over the years. I have watched my neighbors' dogs and have supervised friends and familys' pets when they were working and/or on vacation. On summer break, there are only a few days this summer I will not be free. Mornings and afternoons are great, but I am very flexible. I don't currently have a pet, my family and I just recently moved to Lake Geneva, once we get more settled in that may change.
“Terri did an outstanding job with Tattertott! She gave daily updates and informed us on how Tattertott was doing each day. We greatly appreciate the attention and care she provided while we were away!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and cats as well. I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve had golden retrievers, pit bulls, Rottweilers, and a mini golden doodle. We currently have a 3 month old Golden Retriever! I’m currently a Stay at Home Mom to a 17. Month old little boy and a 3 month old Golden Retriever! So I’m available all the time! My son is a huge animal lover already and will be joining me on check ins and walks so please keep that in mind! Your pets safety is my first priority. They will get plenty of love and play time from myself and my son! You’re pet will be treated as if they’re my own!

About: Throughout my childhood I have owned and raised dogs of all sizes. I also have experience with working at a barn where I gained hands-on experience with daily animal care routines and ensuring the well-being of many animals including cats. I genuinely love all animals and enjoy taking care of them. I am a college student returning home for the summer and I’m planning to make pet care my full-time focus. I have a very flexible schedule and can be available most days and times. I’m responsible, reliable and committed to making this my top priority. You can count on me to be consistent and dependable when caring for your dog. At home I have three large dogs and a fenced in backyard for my high-energy dogs. My dogs are fed twice a day and receive daily vitamins and medications with their meals.
“We were so pleased with Emily. She spent 4 nights 5 days with our fur babies. She sent pictures and messaged us daily. We trusted her fully in our home. If we ever need her again and she is available we will definitely have her. She was definitely a blessing. ❤️”

“Darla was AMAZING while dogistting our two black labs!! We were across the country for a wedding and one of my dogs started getting sick. She was great with communicating with me and keeping me up to date on how my dog was doing while also going the extra mile to provide extra care by cooking chicken and rice so that my dog was able to settle its stomach. Darla was up multiple times during the nights caring for my sick pup and I can't thank her enough for showing so much care and love for my dogs while we were away. I will absolutely be going to Darla for future dogsitting needs. She's so GREAT!”
“Michelle was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to ensure our nervous dog would be comfortable during her stay. She came over for multiple meet and greats prior to our trip, had amazing communication, and exceeded my expectations in every way!! I absolutely recommend Michelle for any of your pet care needs!!”

About: Three years kennel/shelter experience. I have trained retrievers for 10 years. My family has fostered dogs my whole life. I have also owned a wide variety of small and exotic animals. My home currently has three medium sized dogs and two turtles... With plenty of room for your babies ;) I am currently working part time. About 3 hours 2-3 times a week, so most of my time is spent at home with my animals. I have a fully fenced yard and a pool with an automatic cover. My youngest dog sleeps in a kennel and my two older sleep in bedrooms with us. I am more than willing to kennel my dogs while I am not home for your pet's comfort.
“Jack took care of our puppy, while we were out of town overnight. His communication was very articulated and he was very prompt when arriving He was kind, thoughtful and very responsible. He updated us with pictures of our puppy during his stay. When we arrived home all was good. He even wash her doggy bowls. And during one of our communications, he was thoughtful to ask if I wanted him to make the bed, or strip the sheets in the bedroom he was staying in. I hired Jack in a heartbeat again.”

“Ashlee was wonderful with my senior pup who needed a LOT of extra care. She ensured that I, the worried mom, got tons of photos and updates throughout my time away. She really put me at ease and handled the many needs of my older sick pup with great care, kindness, and professionalism. She stayed at my home with my pup and left the house in great shape. We will certainly be asking her to watch our dog again in the future.”
“Trina is such a lifesaver. We had a dog sitter lined up who had to bail on us about 12 hrs before we were supposed to leave on our first ever Disney vacation. She responded to my message immediately, was available on short notice and honestly spoiled the heck out of my dog! My dog is a senior citizen and takes 2-4 meds a day. She made sure he got all his meds, followed an intricate feeding schedule, and loved him as her own. She checked in with me daily to assure us he was doing well. She also helped feed our fish and turtle. What a lifesaver! We returned to happy animals and a very clean house. We will definitely be using Trina for all our vacations from here on out!”


About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was a child. I have had 3 dogs and 5 cats in my life to date. I have worked at potty and trick training. When others say their animals are scared of new people, they are attracted to me. I currently work Monday through Friday. I can work nights usually after 5 pm, anytime during the weekend hours and the occasional last minute weekday. I live in a quiet neighborhood and love to go for walks. I would love to take your pet with too! I am very reliable and I’m here to help with any of your pet care needs. I keep my home clean and tidy and I would help to maintain this in your home as well for your pet care needs.
About: Your pet will treated just the same as my own 2 year old pup, Mochi. They will be treated when they are doing things positively, shown affection for good deeds, and praised when they listen. I am here to help you bring out the best in your pet & share with you what I observe during my time with them. All of our pets are near and dear to our hearts. I promise to care for them with respect, dignity, & compassion. If you would like your dog to have some extra social time with Mochi, he is always available for playing, chasing and sniffing. My goal with your pet is to help them learn to trust you more and give them a positive role model to follow.
“We hired Emily to stay at our home for a second time while we went on a long weekend trip. She is great to work with, responsive to messages, asks questions when needed about the pets, and I feel like my pets are in good hands with her and our home is tidy when we get back. She also came over before the planned trip to meet our newest pups. All of our dogs were happy to see her and the new pups took well to her, even our timid rescued chihuahua, which was nice to see. I would definitely continue to hire her when we need someone trustworthy and reliable to stay with our pets.”
