Cat Sitting in North Lake

About: We lost our sweet Blue (11 year old labradoodle) 3 years ago of bone cancer, and have recently become empty nesters. We LOVE dogs, and our cat has missed his canine companion. Our yard is over an acre, and includes a wooded area. We are also located near beautiful trails that we can walk to. Both of us work from home the majority of the time, and we will only open our home up to furry house guests if we are sure that at least one of us is available to be home the majority of the day. Your dog will love the extra love and attention that they will receive, and we tend to be a bit lenient with letting dogs on furniture/beds. Most of our neighbors own dogs, and there are young children next door. That being said, a dog that is friendly with other dogs and not wary of children would LOVE a vacation with us. I am working part time, and my husband works at least 1/2 of the time from home. We are flexible with dog schedules, and have experience with "elderly" dogs with special needs. We have a large yard (over an acre), which is not fenced in. Our neighborhood connects to walking trails and parks, so your dog will have ample exercise opportunities. We are extremely flexible with our schedules, and can adapt to meet your dog's current routines.

About: I have had pets my entire life. At this time, I am petless, so I would love to love on your pets. Family and friends have relied on me to watch, walk, and play with their furry friends. I and my husband are retired so we have a lot of time to spend with your dog and will walk them a few times a day and play with them. They will always have someone with them. I take younger dogs for a morning, afternoon and night walk. I adjust the number of walks and distance if they are older dogs. I also play with them. They can sleep on the bed and furniture.

“Audrey was very responsive, supportive, and helpful while we were away for work, taking care of our cats. She would send daily pictures and a give us a report of how the kittens were doing! She was great!”

About: I have cared for animals my entire life and truly believe they are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with many different types of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, amphibians, and more. Animals are my passion, and caring for them genuinely brings me joy. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, feeding, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I would give my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for by someone who is experienced, attentive, and truly loves animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize making sure animals receive attentive and reliable care. I am currently available during the day, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekdays, I do drop off and pick up my two children from school (ages 8 and 10), but outside of those short times my schedule is very open. This allows me to provide consistent care, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Because I structure my day around the animals I’m caring for, you can feel confident that your pet will receive dependable attention and thoughtful care while you’re away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment. My home sits on nearly one acre with an unfenced yard, which allows for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Dogs can enjoy time outside on leash, and off-leash play can be discussed depending on the dog’s training and owner preferences. Inside my home, my own pets have separate spaces, which allows visiting animals to be safely and comfortably separated if needed. This helps ensure a calm and secure environment for everyone. I am also happy to care for pets in their own homes. I am very respectful of clients’ homes and always follow instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal routine. Whether in my home or yours, I provide attentive care including feeding, playtime, companionship, exercise, and administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away.

About: We recently moved back to our roots to a spot right off South St. In Oconomowoc. We had our dog sitting business in San Diego, CA and will miss our furry friends so much! My husband and I both love animals very much and have the perfect set-up to host. We enjoy morning and evening cuddles and allow dogs on the couch and bed :) We will take care of your pup just the same as we care for our own. We have a 4 year old mutt that we adopted 3 years ago who has brought so much joy to our life! She loves to play and enjoys the dog park/hanging around other dogs as much as she can. She loves walks around the lake as I am sure your pup will too! We both have experience taking care of other dogs and have dog sit for many of our friends and family members for extended periods of time when they are out of town. We can provide pictures as little or as often as you would like. Excited to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work 4 days of the week and have every Thursday off. My husband works remotely from home so he is able to tend to your pups needs all day. This schedule works great for our pups that need frequent potty breaks and attention. We have long leashes attached to our back deck so the dogs can enjoy the sun and being outdoors as much or as little as they would like without having to worry about them wandering off! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as needed.

“Madison took great care of our cat. Arrived at the agreed upon time, fed and played with him. She even cleaned up a little mess he made. Great experience. Will hire her again.”

Nicole B.

“Allison did a great job once again taking care of our pups while we spent a quick weekend away for the holidays. She is always communicative and ensures our dogs get the activity and attention they need. Also sends great photos of the time she has with them!”

John C.

“Nicholas was great with our dog! Very happy with his tentative response and his ability to get us in on such short notice.”

Sarah H.

“Jenna was fantastic with our 3 dogs for daily check-in visits. She has a great personality and is very timely and professional in her work. We'd definitely use her again for dog sitting and highly recommend her!”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve cared for cats since childhood, regularly looked after a spirited but lovable German Shepherd, and spent time around various animals including livestock. Currently, I work at a premium dog kennel and daycare, where I’ve gained valuable experience managing dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. What truly sets me apart is my deep rooted love and comfort around animals. I connect with them easily and genuinely enjoy their company more than anything else. Their well-being is always my first priority. My work schedule can vary between 6 a.m. and 7:30 p.m., but pet care still fits naturally into my routine. I work at a dog kennel/daycare, which gives me the unique ability to bring dogs with me if I have a long shift or if they need all-day supervision. Dogs are evaluated for daycare, and if they’re not comfortable around others, they’ll go into private play—where they get one-on-one outdoor time every few hours. The accommodations include beds, water bowls, and even free dog food if needed. I cover the cost myself, so your pet’s comfort and care are always a priority. We also offer baths at my work, which could come in handy for some dog owners. Since I’m unable to bring pets into my home, I offer in-home sitting and care. I believe the best care comes from following the pet owner’s instructions closely—no one knows their pet better than they do. I’m here to provide exactly what they feel is best for their pet’s comfort and routine. Through my work at a professional dog kennel, I’ve gained valuable experience recognizing signs of stress or discomfort in animals. If a pet seems uneasy with me or their environment, I adjust immediately to ensure they feel safe and secure. Additionally, if you're a beginner pet parent with any questions or concerns about caring for your pet, I’m happy to offer guidance and advice to help you feel confident in your role as a pet owner.
