Cat Sitting in Plain

“I am very impressed with Cilyr, from the speed she answered to the request, to her detailed (and funny) reports, to how my two cats took to her in no time. Strongly recommended!”

“Jorden provided overnight care for our house and 2 very needy cats. Jorden’s attention to (lots of!!) details ensured our cat’s needs were met and that they remained happy and comfortable. Jorden brought in the newspaper, mail, packages, and provided pictures and updates; all which reassured us all was good. Thanks so much Jorden…hope to see you again soon!”

About: Hi! I'm Brook Gassman, a 24-year-old school psychologist at JYMS in Baraboo, and I'm passionate about providing loving care for all kinds of pets. Growing up with both cats and dogs, I developed a deep love for animals of all shapes and sizes. Currently, I own a sweet cat named Elby and am in the process of finding the perfect dog to add to my family. I've had years of experience caring for pets, from playful puppies to calm senior cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship, I’m dedicated to ensuring your pet receives the best care possible. I understand the importance of trust and routine for animals, and I’m committed to giving each pet the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I look forward to helping you take care of your furry friends! I work full-time at the middle school in Baraboo, so my regular availability is between 6-7 AM and 3-9 PM. However, I'm flexible and can arrange to stop by outside of these hours if needed. I will care for your pet in your home according to your specific preferences and routine. My goal is to ensure a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, and I’ll work closely with you to meet all of your pet’s needs.

About: Hello my name is Candida (Candi). I have worked in and with Rescues and Humane Societies throughout the State of WI over the last 30 years. I currently have 4 dogs and live out in the country with lots of room to run. I am very familiar with different behavior issues as well as how to work with your pets to get through those issues. This experience comes from fostering many high risk animals over the years. Your pet will be treated the same in my home as he/ she is treated in your home. If they go on your furniture, they are welcome on mine, etc. I am always willing to go the extra mile, if your pet needs a bath or a nail clip, I am happy to do that. I have experience with training, CPR, Giving Meds both by mouth and shot. Some of my friends lovingly call me the crazy dog lady because of my deep love for dogs, they have feelings and emotions just as we do and I always take that into consideration when caring for them. Given the opportunity I will show you that you can trust me to care for your baby while you are away just as you care for them when you are home. I currently work part time at my own small business so my schedule is super flexible and can be easily worked around your needs. This gives me the flexibility to give your pet all the time and attention they need while in my care. I have four dogs that are the sweetest babies. They get along great with all animals as well as kids. I do not have a fenced yard as we live on 80 acres out in the country, but I do have a portable temporary fencing that can be put up for outside time. We have a large area in the lower level of our home for inside play time. As I said earlier, when your pet is in my home, they will be treated just as they are when they are with you. I know how important routine is to their little minds. If you feed at a certain time, I will follow that routine. I know mine have a very set routine, they surely know when dinner time is. :o)

“Kimberly did an awesome job with my two senior cats. Zeke didn’t lose any weight while I was gone and Willie was spoiled with frequent walks on his leash to the point that I probably can’t live up to his new expectations 🙄. Will definitely use Kimberly again.”

“Our pups always love to see Alex! She is dependable and always does a fabulous job!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my family dogs for at least 10 years. One of the dogs is a senior that needs medications. I’ve had experience with giving oral medications to senior dogs as well as training puppies. I am currently working full time as an EMT. Sundays and Wednesdays are good days for walking and taking care of pets who need it. I do not care for pets in my home but in the clients home I would respect the clients wishes in what I can and can’t do. I would definitely keep an eye on their pet to make sure no trouble was stirred.

About: With 25 years of experience, I’ve cared for animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, horses, and livestock. Spending time on my grandparents' farm, I learned how to care for a wide range of animals, from taming feral kittens to handling large livestock. As a vet assistant, I have professional experience with senior pet care, medication administration, and special needs animals. My background with horses and livestock gives me the confidence to handle animals of all sizes, while my lifelong love for dogs and cats ensures every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s training a young pup, comforting an aging pet, or ensuring farm animals are well cared for, I provide knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to their needs. Your animals aren’t just another booking—they’re family. I work from home most days, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive pet care. I have an energetic dog who requires daily walks, and we frequently go hiking and visit the dog park—your dog is welcome to join if they’re comfortable in a pack setting! My schedule allows for plenty of outdoor activity and companionship for your pet. I also have 50/50 custody of my children (ages 7 and 10), who are in school during the day but may be home in the evenings. I’d prefer dogs who are comfortable around kids, but if your pup needs a quieter space, they can relax in our large basement when the kids are home from school. We’re an active, outgoing family that loves animals, and your pet will be treated like one of our own! Every pet is different, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. If your pet is well-trained and non-destructive, they are welcome to hang out with me throughout the day while I work from home alongside my own dog. We take regular walks, enjoy playtime, and, if they’re comfortable, they can even join us on hikes or dog park visits. If I need to step out for work onsite (which isn’t frequent), your dog may need to spend some time in a kennel for safety, but they will always receive at least 4-5 potty breaks and plenty of attention throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, engaged, and well cared for in a home environment. As a part-time veterinary assistant (now working just one Saturday a month), I’m highly experienced in handling pets safely and ensuring their well-being at all times.

About: My name is Beautiful, but most people call me Violet. I own one dog of my own, and really enjoy all animals. I am a certified dog groomer as well, and I have been grooming since 2021. I started boarding dogs in my home at the beginning of 2024, and have worked in a doggy daycare setting as well. With all my experience in the pet industry I am able to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for your pets. I groom dogs Wednesday through Friday from 10 to 5, and occasionally a Tuesday. I also groom Saturdays 10 to 4. The rest of the time I can dedicate to making your pet(s) feel as comfortable and happy as possible! I will always treat your dogs like they are my own with lots of love and care. I have a lot of experience with different personalities and temperaments of dogs, so I am able to provide the most appropriate care for your dog.

“Abby came to our home each day while we were on vacation to attend to our elderly cat and everything went smoothly! She was trustworthy and thorough - sent notes and pictures and we never worried about anything while we were gone. We would definitely book her again - we trusted her and appreciated all she did!”

About: Hi there! Animals have been a part of my life for over 10 years. I grew up on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care from a young age. Over the years, I’ve continued to build on that experience in both personal and professional settings. I had the amazing opportunity to travel the country as a professional dog handler, showing dogs in AKC conformation shows. This gave me hands-on experience with many breeds and temperaments, and deepened my understanding of proper grooming, handling, and breed-specific care. I also spent five years working as a veterinary assistant, where I gained valuable experience with medical care, medications, and special-needs animals. If your pet requires medication or extra attention, you can rest assured they’ll be in capable and caring hands. In addition to pet sitting and walks, I’m happy to offer nail trims and other basic grooming care. I share my home with a sweet, neutered 15-year-old dachshund who’s incredibly friendly. While he doesn’t walk much these days, he enjoys riding along in his stroller and keeping me company. Today, I work in the human medical field, but animals will always hold a special place in my heart. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and becoming someone you can trust with their care. I currently work Monday-Thursday, which allows me to take pets Fri-Saturday, but I can be flexible with evening check-ins or walks during the regular work week as well. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and your space. I’ll follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, loving environment. I keep things clean, safe, and low-stress, with plenty of cozy spots to rest and room for play. My senior dachshund is friendly and relaxed, and usually sleeping.

“Our visit with Tyler was just to meet us this time but he made a great impression and I plan to have him come to care for “the boys” in the future! I appreciated his willingness to wear a mask and taking the time to make sure we were both comfortable with COVID precautions.”
