About: I’ve been pet sitting and working with animals for the last 11 years and have lots of experience with 1-2 week stays, multi-pet homes, and even the occasional farm. I started working with animals since my first job on a horse farm when I was fifteen and have continued that streak to college where I’m currently studying animal science. From drop ins to long term stays, I’m excited to get to know your pets and give you peace of mind. I love dogs, cats, and any other animal you have. I currently work mornings at a local horse rescue and am a part time college student studying animal science, so I will be busy for a few hours each day to do chores or go to class. The rest of my time is open to care for pets. I am very detail oriented and will follow all instructions given to the T. I have lots of experience for animals with various needs and dietary restrictions and I know the importance of taking down all requirements and preferences.

About: I work at Central Bark Rochester and have hours of volunteering, education, and hard work in canine care and training. My training and learning continues by the day. Im well versed in many different care/training practices and can adjust to each dog's individual needs well. Not only do I value the desires of pet parent's, but the feelings and consent of their furry friends. I work part time and have availability in the mornings, evenings, and weekends! Afternoons vary. I aim for longer sessions to fill the mornings and shorter in the evenings. I am willing to unlock/lock or enter codes to maintain home safety. I am comfortable crating dogs, keeping them seperate from other animals, and working with reactive individuals (see bottom for details). I am also comfortable cleaning up after pets in or outside the house aswell as administering first aid and medications.

About: My family has had dogs and cats since before I was born and I love meeting new pets whenever! I have experience helping train puppies when we would get a new pet and I would regularly walk my dogs around my neighborhood and trails for years. I love big, little, and in between size dogs! I am currently a student at UWRF, so school is my priority. But I do have a pretty open schedule so far Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday afternoons as well as Saturday morning. Additionally, I do not have a car so I will be either walking or biking to get anywhere so I can't go very far. I am unable to board any pets because of the rules my apartment has but I am available to go places to watch your pet.

About: I have taken care of various different pets ranging in various different breeds and ages. I have grown up on a farm and come with a very good work ethic! I have lots of flexibility with your needs and have experience with all different types of dogs! From anxiety to sick and elderly I have taken care of various different needs for pets and would be honored to accommodate your needs for your pets to! I currently attend school at the university of Wisconsin River Falls so day by day my schedule varies with my classes. But I can easily run to your house between classes. My weekends are usually very open, I do work a part time job but it’s very light hours with flexibility. I have lots of experience of giving medication to dogs and doing any special needs for them. I am more than comfortable walking or letting your dog out. I can also crate them if needed.

About: I've had pets (dogs of all sizes, cats, fish) since I was 7. I currently have a dog of my own. I've trained her. I am always happy to watch, play, feed, bathe, and walk dogs. I am a stay-at-home dog owner, which means taking care of your dog is my main priority! Doggy day care and boarding is always available. I usually accept all dogs. I only refuse service if the dog has previously bit me and/or continued aggression. I have one very friendly female dog (spayed) who loves to make new friends and spend time with old ones. I keep dogs typically in the living area, uncaged. I only cage dogs if the owner requests it, and in a different room from the other dogs. I do have another helper (my fiance), as he also enjoys dogs very much. My walking route is usually around Glen Park, I change it up as needed to boost the adventure for your dog(s). **Water will ALWAYS be available and replenished for your dog(s). Food schedule based.**

“Mara is amazing! She is very personable and responsive to my messages. She was punctual as well. My dog loves her!”

I’ve done puppy sitting for friends, currently volunteer with Coco’s Heart Dog Rescue, and previously volunteered at the local Humane Society. As a pre-vet student at UW-River Falls, I’m passionate about animal care and always provide safe, loving attention to every pet I meet. I also trained 4 service dogs through the FETCH program through Can Do Canines for one year. I also work at Bobtwon Pet Clinic, which has given me experience with veterinary care for the last year. As a college student, I’m excited to fit in walks and drop-ins between classes or after classes, and I’m also available on Saturdays for a couple of visits or walks. I have another job other than walking dogs and doing check-ins, so I work around those hours as well. I’m happy to care for dogs and cats for drop-ins or on walks, no matter their age—always making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up ranging from lizards, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, frogs companion animals, and many more. I’m currently a student at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, studying animal science, hoping to pursue a career as a veterinarian. I have a very diverse background in animal care. I’ve spent many hours working in veterinary hospitals, shelters, and farms. I’ve experienced working with animals, big and small and not afraid to take on your challenging but loving animals. I’m very dependable and flexible and always strive to bring the best care your animals. As stated before, I’m currently a student looking for more animal experience. Doing so will allow me to use my skills to provide a better experience for your animals. Not only that but creating bonds with not only you and your animals will allow me to connect true bonds with both clients. As someone who’s owned and taken care of many pets, I’ve learned the quirks of owning animals. Well, providing a fun experience for your animals I’m well aware of the safety concerns of taking care of animals, and well prepared for emergency situations

About: I have taken care of family/friends/other people’s pets since I was 13. I can feed, let out, walk, and provide enrichment/care for animals. I also have experience with administering medication to animals as well. I am a full-time student currently in my fall semester of college. I am available weekdays for the most part, as I can fit in pet sitting with my school schedule. I will care for your pets as if they were my own (I love my dogs)! I want to ensure that your pet feels safe and comfortable in my care, while also respecting your rules, such as keeping fence gates shut or crating pets when I am not there.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing extra care for puppies and senior dogs. I am comfortable with all dogs. What sets me apart is how much I truly care about each pet’s comfort and routine. With 8 years of experience, I’m confident handling different personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs needing extra patience and attention I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I have a big yard and always supervise outdoor time. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I can crate if needed and make sure every pet gets attention, exercise, and a stress-free experience.

About: Although I have minimal experience with pet care, I’ve been around animals my entire life. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs and cats in the house. I absolutely love pets and take pride in the patience and gentleness that I’ve been blessed with. I always show the absolute most love that I can to pets. I’ve also lived on farms for the majority of my life with animals like cows, horses, chickens, and even donkeys. All being said, I love animals and will give nothing but that love to yours! I currently work part time, giving me plenty of time to spend time with your pets and give them the attention they need. I live in town and work In the area, making for easy transportation to your house when needed. This doesn’t stop me however from traveling further out if you live further away! Every where I go, I go with the mindset of leaving it better than I left it. I am careful with my surroundings, and always make certain to keep everyone out of danger and trouble.

About: My family dog passed away in 2024, since then I’ve filled my doggy-shaped hole by volunteering at Coco’s Heart (dog rescue) and house/dog sitting for families in my area. I work from home, so I’m able to give your animals their much-deserved attention throughout the day! My experience ranges from young puppies just brought to rescue, teenage dogs, to senior dogs, all needing special attention in their own ways. I am punctual with medications, meals and bathroom breaks. I currently work from home, and while house sitting am able to provide around the clock care. For walks or part-time, my schedule may vary slightly. Maintaining and respecting my client’s home is of upmost importance when caring for pets. Keeping not only their environment clean and safe, but the owners as well is important to what I offer. Whether it’s expected or not, I will leave the place the same, if not better than you left it. I strive for frequent communication and avoid outside environments that may stress pets out.

“Fiona’s first outing with Valerie went really well. Fiona got good exercise and Valerie worked with her on manners and over reactivity. Valerie gave us good feed back and videos. We will continue with Valeria and look forward to Fiona’s progress.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs.

Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible.

My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.
