House Sitting in Okauchee Lake

“Tara is truly the best! We were so nervous to leave our little anxious pup, but Tara made us feel so comfortable with her frequent updates and photos. She gave Roma so much love and attention. I'm pretty sure Roma likes Tara more than she likes us now :).”

About: I have taken care of my own animals and have helped out others as well! My love for animals is so high and I find a lot of joy in it! My work schedule is pretty flexible and I have lots of free time! I am usually free anytime after 11 tuesday-thursday, and every other day at anytime! I work well with any needs a family gives me! I love having a set list that the owner has and wants me to do just so the pup feels comfortable and not off schedule!

“My experience in working with Taylor was excellent. Great communicator and most importantly cared for my 10yr lab while out in a work trip. Taylor went above and beyond what was required as she left the house spotless, and washed bedding and bathroom towels before leaving.”

About: I've lived with animals my entire life. Growing up, we had five dogs, four cats, bunnies and guinea pigs, snakes and lizards, fish, and chickens. Currently, while living at home in the summers, we have snakes, lizards, spiders, a cat, and three dogs, one of which is mine. My dog Winston is a service dog in training that my mom and I are owner-training. While I'm in no way a professional trainer, I can help with teaching or maintaining the basics with any dog. I'm currently home for the summer from school and waiting on an application for a part-time job. I am free most of the day right now, as I haven't started working yet. So, I can come over and take care of any pet's needs most any time. I can take care of your animals' needs any time, whether it's taking them on a walk, letting them outside, feeding, cleaning up, or playing with them. My dogs at home are crate trained, so if your dog also stays in a crate at certain points of the day or night, I can easily crate them.

“And all I can say is outstanding! Cindy went above and beyond to make sure my pets for well taken care of! She sent pictures and was very responsive to my questions plus when I got home my house was cleaner then when I left!- I really could not have asked for more and would definitely have her back again!!!”

“Faith was amazing!! She was taking care of my 10 yr dog with special needs and loved her while I was on a week long business trip. She treated her with kindness and love!! Thank you Faith!!! I highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs you have!”

“Cooper did an incredible job caring for our two dogs and our cat. He sent daily photo updates, took the dogs on their walks, and made sure everyone felt loved and well cared for. He even cleaned up the house before he left, which was such a thoughtful touch to come home to. We highly recommend Cooper for any pet‑sitting needs and look forward to booking with him again.”

About: Hey there! I’ve grown up with dogs and had lots of cats all of my life! I would be happy to help you out with your loved family members! I’m great with drop ins, as well as staying at your house for overnights. I have availability every day, except for Tuesday and Wednesdays. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance with your fur babies! ❤️ Pet care fits into my routine because I only work Tuesday Wednesdays. I don’t mind dropping in to say Hi to pets, let them out, or take them for a walk. I care for your pet as if they were my own💕 pets are part of our family!!!!!

About: Hi there! I am a former pet groomer with lifelong experience loving animals of all kinds! I have worked with senior animals, puppies, cats, and combative animals with professionalism and levity for 5+ years. I am super excited to get to know you and your animals. I am currently working summer camp jobs, and therefore have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am very excited to get to spend plenty of time with animals while I navigate a new move to the area! My previous job as a pet grooming assistant as well as babysitting animals in the past has given me a lot of experience in keeping animals safe and comfortable. I work extremely hard to understand animal behavior and body language in order to respect animals boundaries. I also prioritize safety when caring for other people’s animals because that is someone’s baby! It is important to me to do a job well, and that includes maintaining safety and care for all animals.

“Our two labs LOVE Joey! They get lots of cuddles and lots of exercise. Joey is great with communication and we will definitely use her for future stays!”

“Tami did an excellent job of caring for my three kitties (especially the one that requires extra feedings) in my home. Tami is conscientious - she sent photos and updated me on how my cats were doing each day. Thank you Tami!”

About: Loving, Reliable Pet Care Right In Your Backyard! Hi - I am a part-time local pet sitter who truly understands that pets are family. I am here to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, overnight (at your house) sitting, and can care for dogs, cats, and some birds. My goal is simple: keep your pet's routine as normal and stress-free as possible and to give you peace of mind. When you book with me, you can expect: -Plenty of love and attention (belly rubs included!) -Photo updates -Recap notes on how they did -I can administer oral meds if needed -Clean food and water bowls, tity litter boxes, and refreshed spaces I will always schedule a meet-and-greet first so I can learn about you, your pet's personality and preferences, and complete a profile for my records. I take reliability seriously and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered!) family members! I currently work full-time, and pet care is my part-time passion. My weekday availability (Monday–Friday) is limited to 5:00–6:00 AM and after 5:00 PM. I do have some flexibility on Fridays and am happy to discuss specific timing upon request. Weekends are generally open unless otherwise marked unavailable on my calendar. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your pet’s needs—I’ll always do my best to accommodate when possible! At this time, I do not have the means to board pets at my house for an extended stay but am looking into it in the future.

“Allison did a superb job with our multiple dogs and cats! We got daily pics and updates from her which helped ease our worries about the care of our pets. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs. We will definitely be using her again and already reserved her for our next trip. Thank you Allison!!”

About: Hi! I’m Alyssa, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs a good walk or a senior pet who needs a little extra care, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. You can count on me to show up on time, follow your pet’s routine closely, and give them the same care and attention I would give my own. I have taken care of my families pets since I was just a child. I have worked as a dog handler at a day care and I have worked as a veterinary technician for several years taking care of primarily dogs and cats of all ages from new borns to seniors. My duties included administering medication, feeding, behavioral training, and assisting in surgery. I have spent my free time volunteering at shot clinics as well as walking dogs at the humane society. I currently have two dogs, an American bull dog named Simba who I rescued and a German Shepherd named Luka. We go for walks daily around the lake. Whether you need daily walks, check-ins, or last-minute help, I’m here for you. Let’s set up a meet & greet—I’d love to meet you and your pet! 🐶 I currently work full time on a third shift schedule. I am available a variety of hours from the early morning as well as early afternoon into the evening. I take same day care requests, please reach out for last minute needs. I believe in taking care of others animals as I do my own. Making sure they are comfortable and their needs are met is my top priority. Building trust and providing a safe environment for them to feel right at home. During the summer months, if the temperatures are above 80°and/or the humidity is high, I will shorten walks to 15 minutes or less due to safety reasons. This will heavily depend on the condition of each dog. If the temperature is 90 or above, I will not accept dog walks as that is dangerous for your pets safety and well-being. If you’d like me to still drop in for a visit. I am more than willing to stop by to let them outside for a potty break.

“We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs in Wendy’s care. She was super accommodating for our last minute request . Left the house in great shape and left a nice hand written note . Dogs were well cared for ! Would definitely use Wendy again .”

“Tereace was so good with Cleo!! She took her on so many adventures in the wild. Sent some of the best photos I’ve seen of Cleo and accommodated all of her needs! She was super responsive and sent lots of updates and photos! I’ll definitely be using Tereace again!!”
