“Bella did an amazing job pet and house sitting for us while we took a short getaway for three nights. She was communicative throughout - which eased our minds as we had recently adopted one pup and this was our first time away. Our dogs - and cat! - were obviously well cared for upon our return, and Bella left the house in perfect order. Would easily recommend anyone to book her, and we hope she'll come back when we take our next adventure!”



“Rachel stayed at our place while we were out of town and all the animals did great. She sent updates daily and look forward to her staying again while we are out of town. Would highly recommend.”

“If I could give Avery more than 5 stars I would. He came and took care of my 2 big dogs for a weekend with no problem. My dogs just loved him. He made sure we had a meet and greet before the actual stay. He sent pictures and updates everyday. I'll definitely be using his great dog sitting skills again. Thanks Avery :)”


“Emily is wonderful. She took great care of Leo, Stella and Lucy. Leo is diabetic and needs insulin shots twice a day, Emily handled this really well. She sent us pictures and gave updates which we appreciated.”


“Abrianna is truly exceptional! She cared for our two dogs with such love and attentiveness—it was like leaving them with family. Over the two days we were gone, she kept in regular contact, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. She walked them, played with them, and gave them all the attention they needed. We came home to happy pups and a spotless home. Highly, highly recommend!”


About: I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for 3+ years. Growing up with dogs, I’ve always been big into play dates, walks, and giving them lots of love. I’m big into walking/running and would be more than happy to have your dog tag along if you’d like! I do work full time, typically between the hours of 7-4, but my schedule can vary from day-to-day. With my dogs in the past, I’ve always made time to accompany, exercise, and entertain them because they deserve it. I will always make time pets of any kind. Pets with me will not only be in good hands, they will be cared for, loved, and exercised like all great dogs deserve. With me previously having dogs who were very full of energy, I enjoy doing all of this stuff more than anything. I can hardly look at a dog without petting it!

“Madisynn was amazingly loving with our animals. She is trustworthy, independent and has great time management skills. We will absolutely be booking her for future needs.”


About: I have been working with animals professionally since I was 13. I worked at the Wisconsin Humane Society for 8 years, walking & playing with dogs, and socializing other animals such as cats and rabbits. I have worked as an “Animal Wrangler” at summer camp, tending to new puppies, reptiles, small mammals, etc. around camp! I have lots of experience as a pet sitter for family and friends, and I’ve also been taking care of my own pets my whole life: dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, snakes, you name it! My 2 kitties (Bella and Luna), crested gecko (Rango), and cornsnake (Pabu aka Mr Noodle) are my life. I call them my kids - I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own. I work a regular 8 - 5 on weekdays, so I’ll be available for visits in the evening, and I’m available full time most weekends. Message me and we’ll work something out! I have 2 very friendly cats who have lived with 2 dogs their whole lives up until now, a friendly cornsnake, and adorable created gecko. My fiancé and I call them our kids. We adore all animals and will give your babies some extra love. I don’t have dogs of my own here, so I’d love to be able to take care of yours, for both our sakes! 😊

About: I've been around animals my whole life, from dogs and cats, to rabbits and birds, even goats and turkeys. I'm always happy to be around them, and am more than willing to make sure they're happy as well. My family always knows who to call when they need the critters taken care of, no matter what. I currently have open availability, from morning to evening, and weekends are open to all. Nothing better to start the day than a walk with man's best friend. I can't board pets in my apartment, and depending on the dog/client wishes in question I tend to let them follow their normal routine. I always make sure that they get plenty of exercise and fresh air.

About: I grew up on a farm and I have experience with multiple different breeds of animals. I take the time to listen to animals and their body language. I work part time. So i have plenty of extra time to spend and care for your fur baby. Im available Monday to Friday after 2pm and weekends! I have plent of yard space and easy access to walking tails and parks. I do have a dog friendly cat who can keep ur fur baby company

About: I love animals of all kinds! I’m a nurse looking to hang out with your pets on my days off. I have experience with every care need from early puppy socialization to end of life care. I haven’t met a dog yet I didn’t immediately become besties with, from the tiniest chihuahua to the biggest pittie or Dane. I’m also happy to look after any other animals you might have, from reptiles to birds to horses. Just ask and we’ll make it work! I have a rotating schedule that includes a full week off every third week. I work 5p-3a three days a week (and every third weekend). Just message and we’ll figure something out! Yours: I understand being particular about one’s home, so no reasonable request relating to my conduct there would be too much! Cleaning up after myself is a given, as is following any personal house rules. Mine: All of my animals are up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick medication, and I require the same from any animal I keep in my home. They would be kept separate from my 4 cats for the first couple of days, but with discretion and communication I would be fine with introducing them if they were interested in each other. Smoke free home.

“We had Anna for an overnight stay in our home and we can’t thank her enough. She let us know everything was ok when she arrived, our home was left spotless and our pups seemed happy with her care. Would recommend!!”


About: I have two dogs and they are our world. I have had dogs my entire live, have raised multiple puppies and want to love your dog just like our own! I have two sweet doodles who want to be your dogs new best friend. I work full time however am home Friday to Sunday and look forward to dedicating extra time caring for your pup. I am pretty active so expect your dogs stay to be spent playing, walking, and hiking. If caring for your dog in your home will prioritize your pet first! I do not have a fenced in backyard but instead have a long lead. Your dog is still able to roam the yard and take care of business while safe on a lead. I have an unfinished basement which is ultimately our dog play area. I supervise all play in this area - it's been super helpful when weather doesn't allow outdoor time. In the clients home i will be able to play in your backyard while ensuring safety whether it is fenced in or utilizing a lead.

About: I am an animal lover. I have had cats my whole life and dogs for about 20 years total. My "children" are my 3 cats and German Shepherd. I will treat your animal like my own. I do home visits, home stays, and walks. Don't put off your vacation because you don't want to leave your beloved animals. Let me take care of them! Thank you! - Samantha I am currently a remote freelance graphic designer and this allows me to set my own schedule and have flexibility. My husband and I do not currently have children so that also allows me to have a more open schedule without interruptions. I am not a person who has pets without considering their needs and happiness. I play with them, make sure they get medical care, medication, and make sure they feel safe and loved with cuddle time. I know that having a pet is a responsibility and a privilege.

About: I have taken care of pets for a few years now. I have walked pets for neighbors, family. I also have watched plenty of dogs for neighbors family and friends! I am currently a student so I have time to visit dogs and let them outside and to play. Your dog will be my top priority! I will ensure the fence is locked as well as any rooms pets aren’t allowed in. I will always check the water before I leave as well as give them a potty break.

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and love taking care of them. I work full time but my job allows for me to come home for breaks. I am on 2 week breaks and three to four month breaks through the year! Looking to fill my time as pets are my furkids! I work full time but it allows me to come home during my breaks to let pets out! Looking to care for more pets! ❤️❤️ I do not have a fenced yard but we do 3-4 daily walks a day. We go to dogs parks and hike as much as we can.


About: I have worked in a doggy-daycare since I was 16 years old so I have had years of experience with dog-sitting including all kinds of different dogs. I have learned many things and am experienced with dogs and different behaviors as well as working with younger dogs and puppies. I have also worked in dog boarding which included feeding dogs, administering medication and making sure dogs were let outside frequently. Currently, I’m working as a dog groomer at a pet spa so I am with all kinds of dogs daily! In the past, I have dog-sat for many family members and friends and still continue to do so as well. I have owned dogs all my life so I am a huge dog lover! I am available most of the time, besides when I’m grooming dogs at my job so I can be extremely flexible. I am very excited to hopefully get the opportunity to meet you and your dog! :) I’m currently working 3-4 days a week anywhere between the hours of 8am-1pm or 9am-2pm. I am flexible to accommodate around the needs of any requests :) I have a big back yard and friendly dog to keep company with new friends :) My dog has full range to roam in my house all day, and when left alone. I do not own a crate since I don’t use one for my dog. If you crate your dog at home, I would prefer the same to be done during stays with me as well! I give my dog potty breaks every 2-4 hours, but can do more breaks frequently if necessary. Fed 2x daily. Go on many walks and lots of exercise!

“Kayla has watched Monty for me multiple times. She sends pictures often, take him for long walks or trips to the park and even gave my cat his pill when I forgot to add that to my bill. Thank you so much!”
