About: My pet care experience starts when I was just a kid. Growing up my family has always had dogs, which taught me about how to take care of them (walking,feeding and playing) from a young age. I have also watched and walked my neighbors dogs many times. At one point my family had three Labrador retriever's which allowed me to not only know how dogs interact with people but also other dogs. I stand out as a dog walker/sitter because I have lots of experience with handling medium/big dogs that have lots of energy and I enjoy spending time with dogs. I am also the type of dog walker/sitter that wants to develop a personal relationship with your dog and get to know them well.

About: I grew up with a dog and now have one of my own! Willing to give your pup as much love and attention as I give Enzo. I’m willing to walk your dog miles if needed, and have plenty of enrichment activities as well! I will go above and beyond to communicate scheduling and pet needs, and can be flexible with my schedule in the summer if needed. I will be home for most of summer, so any days that are available I can walk, dogsit, or board your pup!! Willing to be flexible with your schedule if needed. I have a kennel if needed, otherwise your dog will be free to roam the house throughout the day. There is a lead on either side of my house providing outdoor access, and plenty of comfortable places inside for relaxation. I am comfortable using any type of leash to walk your dog as well.

“Thanks so much!!”

About: I have always been a dog person & grew up with them my entire life. Friends & family have been asking me to house sit, walk, feed & play with their dog for years. I currently work remote, so I have the flexibility to stay home with you puppy all day & take play breaks and walks throughout the day! I live in a house near a lot of bike trails! I also have a very friendly golden retriever named Louie that can keep your pup company.

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 3.5 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 do not currently work and am a lucky stay at home dog mom! I only leave for short periods of time to buy groceries on typical days! When our dog is outside I am always watching/making sure she stays within the yard. If left outside she has a long leash she hangs out on and enjoys watching the squirrels. She has a dog bed outside for days that aren't so warm to lounge in. We also have a large front patio that can be fenced off in case we have a runner on our hands! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as I am home all day.

About: Providing care to all of Lake Country area! I provide attentive and loving care for your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I go above and beyond to follow your pet’s routine, offer personalized attention, and create a fun, engaging environment. Your pets are treated like family, and I take pride in making sure they are well-fed, exercised, and showered with affection. With me, you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are in the best hands. I have two dogs of my own, a corgi 8 years and a lab, pit bull mix 10 years old. We walk daily and are the happiest babies I know. I want to give love to more animals and care for them the way I care for mine. My daily routine is active and flexible, which means your pup gets plenty of walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. I love being outside and staying on a consistent schedule—perfect for keeping dogs happy and cared for! Caring for pets, whether in your own home or a client’s home, involves a combination of regular attention, proper feeding, exercise, grooming, and emotional care. Here’s a breakdown of how I might approach pet care depending on the service I offer: 1. Pet Sitting (In Client’s Home or Own Home) • Feeding: Follow the pet’s regular feeding schedule and adjust based on dietary needs or special instructions from the owner. • Exercise: Ensure that pets get enough physical activity through walks, playtime, or other engaging activities. • Grooming: Brush pets regularly to maintain their coat and avoid matting (especially for long-haired breeds). Bathe them as needed, depending on the breed and the owner’s preferences. • Health & Safety: Monitor the pet’s health for any changes, such as a decrease in appetite, lethargy, or signs of illness. Administer any medications as directed by the owner. • Companionship: Provide attention, playtime, and comfort to ensure the pet doesn’t feel lonely or anxious. This might include cuddling, talking to them, or simply being around. • Cleaning: Ensure the pet’s living environment is clean, including regularly changing litter boxes for cats or cleaning up after dogs. 2. Dog Walking • Exercise: Provide regular walks to ensure that the pet gets the necessary physical and mental stimulation. The duration and intensity of the walk depend on the breed, age, and health of the dog. • Safety: Ensure the dog is safe during walks by using a sturdy leash, avoiding busy traffic areas, and monitoring for any signs of discomfort. • Playtime: If there is time, include some interactive play (e.g., fetch or tug-of-war) during the walk to engage the dog mentally. 3. Pet Boarding (In Your Home) • Comfort: Provide a safe, comfortable space with a designated sleeping area, food, and water station. • Socialization: If appropriate, allow pets to socialize with other animals (especially if they are accustomed to it). • Routine: Keep the pet on a similar routine as they would have at home, with regular meals, walks, and bathroom breaks. 4. General Tips for Pet Care • Communication: Keep the pet owner updated regularly on their pet’s well-being, sharing any observations, concerns, or funny moments. • Emergency Preparedness: Know where the nearest vet is and be prepared for any emergencies, including having a list of the pet’s medical details and contact information. By focusing on the pet’s specific needs and preferences, both physical and emotional, I can ensure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for.

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was 9 years old. I’ve taken care of family pets, neighbors, and I’ve even run my own pet sitting business for a while. I’m going to school to become a veterinarian, so I get my fair share of animal handling weekly. I’m currently a student athlete at UW-River Falls, so I’m free in between classes as well as after practices for my sport. It all depends on my weekly plan administered by my coach. I make sure the pet is able to become familiar with me in a gentle way and I do my best to make sure that the pet is happy and comfortable whenever I’m around. I will happily play for as long as needed with your pet and do whatever is necessary for them!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. I grew up with dogs and would pet sit around the neighborhood. I also would babysit and take care of the family’s pets while I was there. I have recently started picking that back up. I have watched several different dogs in my neighborhood overnight at my house or at the owners home. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule. I am able to give your fur babies all the walks, playtime, love and cuddles that they need. I like to ask you what schedule you have your pet on currently and follow that as much as possible. I will ensure your fur babies get the exercise, playtime, love and attention that they need while staying with me.
