House Sitting Newburg

“Sydney cared for our 2 dogs and 2 cats over the weekend. One of our dogs requires the use of a brace for walks and one of our cats required meds. Sydney did great with both! She provided updates with text and images, asked questions and was very responsive. My crew was happy and cared for, highly recommend!”

“Emma was AMAZING! 3 Great Danes and she handled their clumsy-ness and lap dog tenancies without a hitch. My stupid dogs ran off to the neighbors house and had an incident with the neighbor dog. She handled the situation perfectly and kept my dogs, the neighbor and their dog, and myself feeling safe about the incident the rest of booking. When I got home and apologized again to my neighbor, they said that Emma did great the whole time and were impressed with the way she handled things. 10/10 would recommend Emma!!”

“Shannon took care of our dog Miss Maisy Brown while we were out of town. She did a fantastic job! She was great with communication and sending photos, and our house looked perfect when we returned. Would definitely use Shannon again for future dog care needs. Highly recommend!”

“Grace is truly amazing!! I have a very nervous rescue dog and she warmed up to Grace so quickly. I never had to worry for a second about my girl while I was gone. She is the sweetest and your pets will be loved so well.”

“Sarah went above and beyond to deal with a few unexpected home emergencies while we were out of town which I really appreciated. We are new to the area and don’t know many people yet so I was happy to find Sarah to watch our pets. The pets and I felt comfortable with her right away which really helped relieve my anxiety about leaving them with someone other than family for the first time. I will definitely be reaching out to Sarah again.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently care for four dogs and one cat of my own. Caring for multiple pets has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each animal’s unique personality and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to quiet cuddles and sticking to feeding routines, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care. Also, I am comfortable and experienced in handling medication for dogs as one of my dogs at home has diabetes. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I’ll treat yours with the same kindness, respect, and affection that I give my own. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pet. I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred days and times, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both you and your furry friend. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for my own four dogs and one cat, so I’m familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and lots of love. I’ll also respect your pet’s routine, follow any feeding or medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“I don’t want to even leave a positive review because I want her to be always available for us 😭 lol! Lisa did a PHENOMENAL job with our kitties. We loved all the photos, videos and updates. Spunky and Joey are going to miss your daily visits. You’ll have to visit soon! Thank youuuuuuu Lisa!”

“Faith was absolutely wonderful with our Bruno!! This was a longer vacation for us from the other times we’ve had Faith watch Bruno. Everything went extremely well and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation without any worries about how Bruno was doing. Faith kept us informed with photos and texts every day about how Bruno was doing. He truly bonded with Faith. Bruno is a Shiba Inu and that says a lot about how well Faith interacts with dogs as this breed is generally very aloof. The house was spotless and clean when we came home. I would highly recommend Faith to watch your pets. I can’t say that enough. We will continue to have her watch Bruno and use her services for both overnight stays and walks when we may be gone for a long day. Excellent excellent job!! Thank you Faith!!”

About: As I said in my headline, I work from home so it is easy for me to pack my stuff up and come care for your pets while you are away. If they will be staying with me they will get spoiled with attention all day. Our backyard is not fenced in but we have a line off our back door from when we had a dog for when nature calls. I am also freely able to let them out for potty breaks while working. My work schedule is very flexible to take your pets for walks or stop in. I currently watch my friends animals when they are away. One household is 2 dogs and 2 cats and the other is just a cat. One of the dogs I have experience administering medication with and dealing with a anxious dog. I also frequently watch a families Boxer when they have errands to run or want to go out for the evening.

About: Since High School (10+ years), family members, neighbors, and close friends have reached out to me for pet care. I personally grew up with cats, but I have care for cats, dogs, fish, and even bearded dragons! When I care for your pets, I strive to be patient and understanding first and foremost. Meeting new people is just as nerve-racking as meeting new animals! I enjoy learning your pet's behavior, building trust, bonding with them and hopefully, if they let me, giving them lots of love! I try to be open-minded and understanding as I know not every pet warms up to people. Feel free to reach out and we can chat more about what you need for your pet :) I'm looking forward to spending time with them! I currently have a flexible schedule, so pet-sitting and dog-walking can fit in whenever I have free space! Typically I will have pet-sitting over the weekends, but my availability will be updated as needed. As I live in an apartment, I currently am not able to care for your pets in my own home. Though, I have no problem coming to your home to care for your pets! This includes if I am needed there overnight.

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals, including cats and dogs, and at one point, our household included five dogs simultaneously. Since the age of ten, I've been responsible for feeding my dogs and taking them outside. When I turned fourteen, I began walking my own dogs and even walked dogs for friends, ranging from 15 to 130 pounds. I am proficient in administering dog medications and knowledgeable about dog behaviors. I'm passionate about understanding each pet's preferences and personality, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with a fun and safe environment. I’m currently working a part-time job, while a full-time college student. I am free currently Saturday-Tuesday. Saturday and Sundays I will be available from 8am till 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Monday I will be available all day starting from 10am and Tuesdays all day after 3pm. I always prioritize your pets well-being and follow your specific instructions for their care. If needed, I can crate your dog and i’ll offer a safe and comfortable environment.

“I simply do not know what we would have done without Mary. She has faithfully and with care taken care of our Kikki cat while we were away for days at a time getting medical care for my husband. I do know she will do her best for you, and she will send pictures so you can rest easy that all will is well at home.Kikki was relaxed and calm each time we returned.”

“Heather was so sweet and understood our animals are our family. She sent pictures throughout her stay which really put my mind at ease. We will book Heather again for the future!!”

About: Nice to meet you! My name is Courtney. I created my business because I too struggled to find a reliable dog sitter for my pets. I wanted to provide professional, trustworthy care to my fellow pet owners. People have described me as confident, responsible, and compassionate. I am very passionate about working with pets. I’ve worked with hundreds of dogs, ranging from all dog breeds and sizes. I have been a dog trainer and dog sitter for over 10 years, and I truly have a passion for dogs. Take me to a dog park and I can tell you about every single dogs play style, body language and behavior. What sets my dog sitting and boarding services apart is my understanding of the canine mind and their unique needs for enrichment and reinforcement, crucial for their health and happiness. I have extensive training and real world experience training K9s and companion dogs which requires creativity, patience, and compassion. I also have extensive knowledge of various dog health issues, having cared for blind dogs, deaf dogs, and those with special needs. I firmly believe there are no 'bad' dogs and strive to cater to each client's specific needs. Reactive, nervous, or anxious dogs are always welcome in my care without judgment. Ensuring dogs' safety is my top priority because, like you, my dogs are family, and I treat every pet as such. Trusting somebody with your pets can be nerve wracking, and you can be assured the care, safety, and well being of your family member is taken seriously. “Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.” George Eliot Important note: I have a three day cancellation fee, so please be sure to let me know if your plans change as soon as possible. Last minute cancelations result in other pet parents unable to use my services, so I cannot wave or adjust for my fee. I appreciate clients understanding! Please note that dogs are not to be taken off property during their stay (Unless veterinary related) is it my main priority that pets are safe and secure in our home and yard. Our yard provides ample space for dogs to run, chase a ball, and play with their buddies. My drop off and pickup times are split between AM and PM. My drop off times range from 8-10AM, and 5-8PM. Times outside of those periods will be charged for a day or half day of daycare. I appreciate owners being as close to a planned time as possible to allot time for myself and other clients. As a full-time dog trainer, I work from home alongside my lead trainer, so there is always someone at home! My commitment to being home means that the dogs receive continuous supervision and attention, enhancing safety and well-being. I enjoy hiking, swimming, and gardening in my small garden. When dogs stay at my home, safety is my top priority. To ensure a secure environment, I implement several measures. 1. Supervised Outside Play: Dogs are only allowed outside under direct supervision. This allows me to monitor their behavior, prevent any potential conflicts, and ensure they stay safe from external hazards. 2. Matching Play Styles: I carefully assess the play styles of each dog and only allow those with similar temperaments to interact. This minimizes the risk of misunderstandings and conflicts, promoting an enjoyable playtime for all dogs. 3. FI Collars. If requested by the pet parent, I use FI collars for safety. These smart collars provide real-time location tracking, ensuring an added layer of security. This technology helps me keep track of each dog’s whereabouts, giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are safe. 4. Fence: Our property is 1/3 acre and includes a 6 foot fence. Dogs are carefully monitored and I implement 50 foot long lines if needed for escape artists.

“Courtney was amazing! Absolutely wonderful with all of our fluffies and you can tell they Super care about them. Many sitters just do the bare minimum but Courtney spent time with them, took care of medicine, played with them, etc… and did not just watch TV all day sitting like we have had others do. If you want someone who takes care to help your fluffies feel comfortable while you are away, we recommend Courtney.”

“Rachel is an excellent Pet / House sitter. Mt Great Pyrenees, Maya really warmed up to her immediately and I felt safe and confident leaving her in Rachel's care”

Tammy L.

About: My name is Jacalyn, and I am a dedicated pet caregiver/house sitter in the West Bend area. When I’m not spending time with animals, I am a freelance artist working on long-term creative projects. Because my artwork is completely mobile, it makes me the perfect companion for your pets! I provide a consistent, calm presence in your home, ensuring your animals are never lonely, stressed, or left unattended for long periods. Specialized Experience & Skills: Unlike standard dog walkers, I have a deep, lifetime background in diverse animal care. You can completely trust me with your entire household ecosystem. Dogs: I grew up with a toy poodle in our home, caring for him when my parents went away. I would also house sit for our neighbor with medium-large dogs as a young adult. I have more recently house sat overnight for friends and my previous boss with two large dogs, providing structured feeding, walks, and plenty of play time. Small Pets: I formerly worked at a pet store where I was responsible for the daily care, feeding, and habitat maintenance of cats, dogs, birds, fish, rabbits and rodents. I also cared for my own pet mice, rats and rabbits over the years. I adore all animals, big and small. Animal Shelter Volunteer Roots: My love for animals started early—I volunteered at our local animal shelter with dogs and cats as a kid, learning how to handle different temperaments, walk the dogs, and keep environments clean and safe. If you have an animal friend that needs care while you're away, dog walking or a permanent home/vacation home that needs house sitting and check ups, don't hesitate to send me a message. I aim to provide the best care for your fur baby tailored around your work day, weekend plans, holiday travel, or seasonal vacations. My radius includes within 15 miles of West Bend. I am available for all of the services listed Tuesday-Sunday. My week is open for your nanny needs. Whether you are a local heading out on a vacation, long work days, or a tourist renting a cabin and looking to explore the local landscape, I am here to help. Why Choose Me? Because I balance my pet care with my art projects, your pets get the absolute best of both worlds: structured, energetic outdoor time combined with hours of quiet, indoor companionship while I work. I am detail-oriented, highly respectful of your property, and communicative with plenty of photo updates. Not only will i take care of your family member, but make sure everything is spotless when you return. I look forward to meeting you and your unique pets! Please feel free to reach out with your upcoming dates.

“Wow! What can I say? Margaret exceeded every expectation I had for Uecker’s care today! As a new puppy mom who’s only had him for three weeks, leaving him with someone for the first time was a little nerve-wracking. But Margaret made me feel completely at ease. She didn’t just watch him—she played with him, loved on him, reinforced the commands we’ve been working on, and treated him like he was her own. The best part? Walking through the door and finding Uecker snuggled up right next to her. My heart absolutely melted. It was obvious he felt safe, loved, and completely comfortable. I truly couldn’t be happier with the care Margaret provided. Book her before I do, because with my busy schedule, I’ll definitely be calling her again! Thank you so much, Margaret. Uecker already adores you, and so do I!”
