House Sitting in Oostburg

“Patty was a hit with our pup. Our pup even followed her out the door to her car when she left. I would definitely recommend Patty. She was personable, thoughtful, and really knew how to make our pup comfortable. We received videos and photos through out the day which made us comfortable.”

About: Been around many dogs my entire life. Have my grooming license and have dog sit, helped with rescues and administration of medications, physical therapy ect. Offer enrichment and lots of space to run and play! **FYI** if anyone is uncomfortable boarding at my home because I have dogs, I am more than happy, and capable of keeping your pet separate while still giving them a positive experience with plenty of space and love. I currently have an open schedule so will build and work around everyone as I go. Working on building a great efficient and FUN routine! I have a fully fenced in back yard to play in and lots of toys and enrichment stuff to do while here, can also bring enrichment to other homes. Also can do baths, nails, ears, brushing..anything dog, I'm in!

“Alyssa took good care of our Roxy. I appreciate her coming to our home ahead of time to meet her and making us feel comfortable knowing she was being watched over. We are already booking her again!”

“Judy was exceptionally thorough, attentive, communicative, and caring. We could not have asked for someone better to look after our dog, Arnie, while we were on vacation. We will certainly use Judy in the future.”

About: I am a caring and responsible pet caretaker. A pet is a family member; therefore, making sure they are fed appropriately, walked accordingly, and given the attention they deserve is top priority. I have had three dogs of my own, all rescued, so knowing how to gain trust and provide a comforting environment is my specialty. I also have two cats that have enriched my world as well! I know how to handle both anxious and energetic dogs; each needs the same amount of care and attention, yet knowing how to provide this in a unique and effective manner is important to me. I treat all pets with respect and provide the care and service they need, and I hope to provide this care for your animals as well! Compared to other sitters, my schedule is pretty flexible as I do not work a regular 9 to 5! I am back in school to pivot my career; therefore, I am available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings! (depending on the day and class schedule) At this time, I cannot offer pet accommodations in my own home. With my own pets, I stick to a daily routine for my labradoodle (Dora) and two cats (Candy and Tilo). Regular feeding times, regular walks, and of course, keeping their designated areas clean and tidy!

“Waiting to book again!!!! No issues at all. Great communication!”

“Jasmine was great- she provided updates & made sure both our dogs were loved on while we were gone. We look forward to having her back!”

Katie K.

“We were out of town, just for an overnight, but the weather became questionable. Jessica was very flexible and let us know if we needed to postpone our return that she would take care of Ruby!”

Shelley B.

“We loved having Crystal watch Rosco! She was very flexible and accommodating with our schedule. She walked and played with Rosco and gave him attention. We will definitely use her services again.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs in my house my entire life! My family and friends always turn to me when in need of drop in visits or longer pet sitting time frames when needed. I am an active person, so I love taking animals on walks or even to the park! I work 3am-3pm at a hospital, 3 days a week- allowing me to have a flexible and open schedule. I am available afterwards if I don’t work the next day! I also am very active so I would love to take animals on walks or even runs if able! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, so I am very familiar with how to take care of them. In my household we believe that animals are part of the family too, and love to shower them with attention and love!

“Sally was kind and considerate! She sent updates often and was very good with communications and being flexible for our house sitting. She is very nice and personable! Highly recommend her!!”

About: I have had the most pleasure of growing up with dogs and receiving the endless love they give you. Although, I have no professional experience but I have learned how to handle dogs, feed them, walk them, teach them skills by always having dogs in my household. They deserve so much love and I want to do everything in my power to make sure dogs and every animal receives that. I am available after 4 for dog walking and dog drop ins! I will try to be as flexible and accommodating to your pet(s)! I have a dog myself and after work I like to take her on long walks and on my days off. It would be the perfect time to take care of your pet as it fits in my schedule! I live in a pretty safe area with not a lot of traffic. I make sure to keep the dogs or pets on a leash and be aware of my surroundings!

About: I worked for the humane society for 1 year and there I worked with a range of dogs, including pits, puppies, seniors, special needs, and ‘behavioral’ dogs. I also know training to an extent! No dog is too much for me! This is my full-time job, along with taking care of my own animals at home! I have a very flexible schedule and I am willing to work with any needs and I can do overnights. In my home, my dogs have electric collars to make sure they do not run off. I also keep an eye on them while they’re outside. They are fed on a schedule and also walked one on as well. My cats are also fed on a scheduled, daily litter box changes, and of course play time just like my dogs. In a client’s home I will do what they prefer so that they’re comfortable with me! I am responsible and respectful of others property and items, as one should be!

About: Animals are my life. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets, and my love for them has only deepened into adulthood. I’m passionate about learning, understanding, and caring for all kinds of animals—whether they have fur, feathers, or scales. My pet care experience includes caring for my own pets, helping out family and friends, volunteering, and working in professional settings. I’ve worked at Dogtopia of Maplewood, a dog daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, and I’m currently on staff at the Sheboygan Humane Society, where I work closely with dogs of all breeds and personalities. I also spent last summer caring for a family member’s five French Bulldogs. My partner, who was deployed previously and just came home and I have two dogs of our own—Artlet, a playful and sweet German Shepherd/Lab mix. She’s lived with me in my college dorm the past two years and absolutely loves socializing. I train and exercise with her daily, and she truly pushes me to be my best. We recently added “Packer” a now 7 month old Husky, he’s a spur of energy and smart little guy. He’s still training basic obedience and is very socialized - he has that husky attitude and likes to talk back and make sure his opinion is known. My passion for animals led me to study Animal Science in college, with the goal of becoming a certified dog trainer and eventually working in veterinary clinics. While my current college doesn’t offer that major, I continue to take professional dog training courses online to keep advancing my skills. In addition to dogs, I’m also experienced with small animals and reptiles. I’ve owned bunnies, guinea pigs, chinchillas, ferrets, snakes, bearded dragons, and more. I even worked at a reptile breeding facility, giving me hands-on experience with a wide range of lizard species. I offer a guest bedroom that provides privacy and separation from my dog, ideal for small pets who may need a quiet space. I also have a playpen for supervised time in the living room or outside on the grass, perfect for bunnies and guinea pigs to nibble and enjoy some sunshine. I ask that small animal and reptile guests come with a travel cage or carrier, though I do have a few tanks available: • 40-gallon tank (formerly for my snake) • 20-gallon tank (used for a feeder rat) • 10-gallon tank (used for a hermit crab) I’m also able to provide some substrate, hides, heat bulbs, plants, food bowls, etc. Whether your pet walks, hops, slithers, or scurries—I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I work Part-Time M-F (10:30am-4pm) and when I’m home, I’m able to provide consistent, hands-on care Whether it’s feeding, playtime, administering medication, or just keeping your pet company, I’m home and available to give them the attention they need. My schedule allows me to accommodate special routines, last-minute bookings, and plenty of one-on-one time—your pet will never feel rushed or ignored here! Dogs: I tailor each pet’s care based on their needs, age, and personality—whether in my home or yours. If your dog stays with me, they’ll get lots of love, structure, and playtime. I have two secure outdoor leashes for potty breaks, and my apartment complex has a private, onsite dog park just for residents—a safe and fun space for dogs to run and play. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood, and if your pup loves fetch, I’m always ready to play! For puppies, I’m happy to help with crate training, potty training, and basic manners as part of their daily routine. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow your exact instructions and keep their routine consistent, making sure they feel safe and loved in their familiar environment. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Cats: I provide calm, personalized care that keeps your cat happy, healthy, and stress-free—whether they stay with me or I visit your home. In my home, your cat will have access to a private guest room that’s completely separate from my dog, ensuring a peaceful environment. The room is equipped with a brand new cat tree, tunnel, litter box, toys, and freshly washed blankets for each guest. I also have a cat carrier if transport is ever needed. I take time to learn your cat’s personality—whether they’re playful, shy, or senior—and adjust my care to match their comfort level. If I’m caring for your cat in your home, I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I handle feeding, litter box maintenance, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I understand how sensitive cats can be to change, so I move at their pace and provide regular updates to keep you in the loop.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 8. I pay attention to all the pets that I care for. I also am very good at attending to dogs with anything they need. I am looking to do this full time and I am flexible with anyone’s schedule. I am home most of the time except to run errands. I have a big house and big yard that is fenced in. I live 5 minutes away from a big dog park. I also live with my mom and two of my siblings. There are four medium sized dogs that live in this house and enjoy playing with most other dogs.

About: **Note right now I do travel from north of Milwaukee, to Door County from Lake Michigan to Wisconsin Rapids area. I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.

About: About me: I grew up with dogs my entire life in my families household, & had a cat for a short time. I showed dairy cattle for the local 4H in High School & loved cows so much I now have a degree in Agricultural Business. Nowadays, my boyfriend & I have 4 cats & I recently purchased my own horse that I had previously ridden for years. I have worked at a handful of doggy daycares, horse & dairy farms, & even a vet. Dogs: I love all breeds & sizes, & have dealt with pretty much anything you can think up- feeding, administering medications, walking, playing, dog fights, high energy pups, nervous dogs. I’ve trained my own pups basic tricks, & can help with keeping up on this while your fur baby is in my care. Cats: My boyfriend & I have 4 cats of our own- ages 17, 16, & 7 months. The best thing about cats is they all have their own unique personalities, & that goes to show in our household! With our senior cats I have had to give pastes, oral medications, & topical ointments. I am no stranger to feeding wet food, or doing daily litter box cleans! Horses: I have been riding/working with horses for about 7 years, & now work for my horses boarding facility part time. My duties at the barn include feeding grain, giving hay, blanketing, cleaning stalls, filling waters & basic tidying. I have worked with hot heads, to super sweet, & some that may just need a little more help with trust. Cows: I have worked on a handful of dairy farms, & worked closely with cows that became show animals for 4H Dairy showing. If you need someone to drop by to lend a helping hand on your hobby farm feeding, filling water, & basic check ins & love - you've come to the right place. I look forward to speaking with you about your animals needs! I work a full time job M-F 7am-330pm. My schedule stays busy with my two other part time jobs either after work or on weekends. I care for my cats daily & have at minimum three shifts at a horse farm a week. I am always open to speaking with animals owners to see how I can best fit in to help you & your pet! I provide care in your own home. I can stay at the home, or stop in & spend time with your animals as needed! I try to be flexible to meet needs, as every animal is different.
