About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for over 15 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pups. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered at local animal shelters, where I helped walk, feed, and socialize dogs from all backgrounds. I'm comfortable with a variety of breeds and activity levels, and I always tailor my approach to each dog’s individual needs, whether it’s a long walk for an active dog, playtime and enrichment for a curious pup, or calm companionship for an older one. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, safe, and loved. I don't have much experience with cats but am eager to learn and help any cat parent that needs it. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to check on or walk pets during the day or anytime during the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m walking your dog, visiting for a drop in, or staying in your home, I make sure each pet feels relaxed, secure, and loved. During walks, I always use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and surroundings. For drop in visits, I follow your routine for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things consistent and stress free. When staying in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep everything clean and tidy while maintaining your pet’s usual schedule.

About: I have patience. I have worked in a group home and as a job coach for people with special needs. I have always had pets in my home i,e, dogs, cats, gerbils, fish, Chinchilla, and outdoor rabbits. I grew up with pets always around. I have time during the weekday to be able to walk your dogs. I like taking walks during the day and would like to walk them on a continual basis. I walk, feed and care for my dog everyday.I think it's important for dogs to get exercise everyday and on a regular basis if possible.

About: Pets bring us all kinds of joy and unconditional love. It's hard to relax on vacation or focus on an event with a piece of you missing . Be able to be present and ease your mind knowing another caring soul will show your pet the same love and attention they enjoy. I have 10 years of experience with all different breeds and sizes. I work remotely. My office is where the WIFI is the strongest. I have time to spend with animals. My children are grown leaving me with an abundance of free time Soft voices and lots of love and attention. Dogs I like to run and make sure that they have the exercise they need. Plenty of tug of war! Social cats I give lap time and bring a feather.

“Azaria is punctual and doing a great job!”

About: Pet parents love booking with me because I provide fast communication, reliable care, and affordable rates. I typically respond within 2–3 minutes between 7am and 9pm, so you’ll never be left waiting for a response or update. I also have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate short-notice bookings, making things easy for busy pet parents. In July 2025, my heart grew four paws bigger when I brought home Bella, my sweet Goldendoodle—and I’ve loved every second of raising, training, and adventuring with her. I genuinely love spending time with dogs—it’s basically free therapy haha! 🐶 As a dedicated dog sitter and pet caregiver, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s dog sitting, doggy day care, boarding, drop-in visits, or walks, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with cats and fostered over 10 through the Underdog Pet Rescue of Wisconsin during college, helping them heal, build confidence, and find their forever homes (one of those special fosters even joined my parents’ family!). From vet appointments and administering medications to daily routines, enrichment, exercise, and lots of snuggles, I’ve been hands-on in every stage of pet care. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly what they are to me. 💛🐶🐱 If you’re looking for an affordable, reliable, and communicative pet sitter, I would love to meet you and your furry family members! I work full-time from home, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, supervision, playtime, and care throughout the day. My schedule is structured yet flexible, making it easy to incorporate walks, feeding routines, potty breaks, enrichment activities, and plenty of cuddles without rushing. I live in a very dog-friendly apartment community that features an on-site dog park and numerous walking paths, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for exercise, exploration, and fresh air. I'm also usually available on weekends, allowing for extra companionship and one-on-one attention. I keep my calendar updated every 1–2 days and may have availability even when my calendar appears full, so please feel free to reach out. I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs and provide your pet with reliable care, a consistent routine, and lots of love. 🐾💛 I care for pets in a safe, loving apartment environment designed with animals in mind. My apartment is pet-friendly and includes plenty of space, cozy pet beds, and lots of toys to keep everyone comfortable and entertained. Our community features a dog park and several walking paths, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. I'm also always happy to take dogs on new adventures or stop for a pup cup treat! For overnight boarding in my home, dogs are safely crated at night (if crate trained or preferred by the owner) to help create a secure and restful environment for everyone. I'm happy to schedule a meet and greet with you and your pet ahead of time to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Please feel free to ask any questions about my services—I believe in open communication and want you to feel completely confident that your furry family member is in good hands while you're away. My home is fully pet-safe and pet-ready, with a structured, secure, and loving environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention, care, and affection. 🐾💛

About: I'm a genuine animal lover who treats every home and pet as if they were my own. Whether you have an energetic puppy, a senior dog needing extra care, a shy pup who takes time to warm up, or a small apartment with a feisty terrier — I show up prepared, patient, and attentive. My priority is making sure your pets are happy and your home is respected, so you can travel with real peace of mind. I welcome meet-and-greets beforehand, communicate throughout the stay, and always leave your home just as I found it. Pet sitting is my primary focus when I take a sit — I'm not squeezing it in around a busy schedule. Your pets get my full attention, not leftover time. I stay in your home for the full sit, keeping your pets in their own space with their familiar routines, smells, and comfort. No disruption, no transport — just consistent care in the environment they already trust.

“We have a reactive dog that needs time, space and discipline. Sidney is very friendly, understanding and willing to work with us to make our pup comfortable. We are happy to book her again!”

About: Hi my name is Jasira (Ja-Sigh-rah) and I am a loving puppy mama who is an all around pet lover! Those big doggie eyes just melt my heart every time. If your pet is staying at with me, they will feel like they are part of our family. Your pup will receive the same love and attention I give to my puppy and will be handled with extreme care. If you’re a cat lover you’re definitely want to book with me. Your pretty kitty will get all the love or space they want. I work from home so it is very easy for me to social distance. My baby is a 3 year old mix named Yoshi. Yoshi loves new friends and is always ready to hang out with many toys to share. He's a sweet pup and will make any guest feel welcome. He is always kept up to date with his shot records, flea/tick prevention, and everything that makes a happy healthy pup. In your pet's care bag, I mainly need to have your pet's food, favorite toy, and leash & poop bags. Other things you can include are food/water bowls, brush and any specific treats. Your pet must be clean upon drop off. Unfortunately if not, you must be willing to pay grooming fees or cancel our booking. I know how scary it can be to leave your baby with someone else so whether it be dog walking, dog/cat sitting you have nothing to worry about! Your pet will have an amazing time and eat some great treats (owner permitted of course)! I have dog puzzles and they will get plenty of fresh air! I look forward to meeting some amazing pets and their humans. Can’t wait to see you! Disclaimer: Same Day/Last Minute Booking Fee May Apply) I’m currently working from home so I’m always available to the furbabies I’m sitting. We’ll have a great day together that will include some playtime, some walks and of course some treats LOL I have a puppy so they have a built in friend. I’m happy to accommodate any specific needs or schedules that your dog may follow. Since I work from home I am able to walk my dog three times a day, play and have time for play. Treats of course are involved(with permission). I walk my dog in our neighborhood. It is very safe and there are lots of other friendly dogs to say hi to. I make sure to have my dog on a leash prior to opening any doors. In Yoshi’s playhouse all dogs are carefully watched and protected.

About: Growing up with a dog was a blessing! My parents have 3 dogs now so I have experience with multiple dogs/breeds. I also grew up with 2 cats! Im currently working as a RN so I work 3 days/ week. I have been looking for something else to do with my free time on days off! At home we had a fenced in yard and we would crate our dogs when ever leaving the house when they were young. I will be comfortable with what ever instructions you give me as long as they are clear.

“Lensey was great on time and very friendly. Great communication and pictures.”

I don’t like to board up pets if I am there, they should be free from stress while you are gone. So, you can enjoy the time you’re gone as well. But, I fit the needs you have so your pets routine isn’t too abrupt with the change in placement with me. Sometimes I will use dog diapers instead of crating them up unless that is what you prefer. That would normally be provided by owner. I do plenty of outside time and walks as well. I may only crate them if that is your preference when I am not there or time for bed. Owners preference.
