“Very happy with this drop in visit. I think more than anything Josie was out of sorts because we had just hosted a few people and a dog previously and she was wiped out and had only met Rachel once. Glad things went well though and all was well when we got home! We will definitely use Rachel’s services again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I’ve watched for family, family friends, and neighbours. I’ve always loved animals, and getting to work with them is like a dream! I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m also more than willing to get my hands dirty! Puppies can I have accidents, but it’s not a problem! They like to play in the mud, guess that means bath time! I also have experience giving dogs medication. My own dogs take medication daily and I’ve done it while sitting before! I’m currently working part time but I am in the market for a new job so any days and times work. My personal schedule is very flexible! If you have a fenced in yard your fur babies will be let out every two hours (supervised of course:) )No fenced in yard? No problem. They will still be taken out every two hours on a leash. I am also more than happy to bring your fur babies on walks throughout the day, just as long as the weather is suitable for them! Between playtime and snuggle time your babies will be in great hands!

About: What sets me apart? When your pet is in my care (at my home or your own), I make them my priority from start to finish and treat them like my own. When guest dogs are staying in my home I sleep with them in our spare bedroom (no kenneling at night or during the day unless you request I do so) and if I'm house sitting you can rest assured that I will leave your home and pets as good or better than I found them. I never charge extra for walks, playing fetch, taking them on a car ride, or doing an activity they enjoy. I want your pet to feel like they're on vacation, too :) When I'm house sitting for a client I aim to be there the entire time, and since I work remotely (as long as you have quality wi-fi) I am able to work from your home - this means your pet gets even more time and attention, and if I do have to leave it will only be for a very short period and I will communicate this to you prior. If you do not need/want me there 24/7 we can discuss and adjust price based on what we agree upon during our meet and greet. I aim to be as flexible as possible to meet both your need and your budget... I know this is an investment! I am here because I love the idea of helping other pet-parents know their pets can be taken care of when they are busy or want to enjoy time away with loved ones. I am also here because anyone who knows me knows how much I love animals :) both my own and any animal I meet. I have experience with all sorts of animals and I'm equally as comfortable with both dogs and cats... big and small. I also have experience with tricky behaviors (aggressiveness, food guarding, potty training, learning to walk on a leash, teaching commands, etc.). I can administer medicine, communicate with vet offices effectively, and I am known for providing all of the updates/pictures/videos someone would like while I'm caring for their pet! For awareness, dogs and cats are kept separate in our home. We do this for safety :) There is an underground fence for our dogs and this is an option if your dogs are collar trained. If not, no problem - I am happy to take pets out on a leash. Safety is my top priority, so I will strictly follow the instructions given for your pet(s). When it comes to inside the home, I will closely monitor all play/interactions and if needed, I will separate and/or give primarily 1 on 1 time with your pet if that is what they require. Please note: if you live more than 45 miles from my address I do charge a 1x flat fee of $50.00 while house sitting. Similarly, if you live more than 25 miles from my address I charge a 1x flat fee of $12.00 for dog walking and/or drop-in visits. Thank you for your understanding!

About: I've taken care of my own and other pets for 10-15 years. I am able to deliver medication and I've taken care of senior dogs many times as well. I'm working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to make almost any routine fit! I also stay very active so any animals that are active and need walking is fun for me! I can easily crate animals if needed. In a client's home, I can walk or drive animals to nearby places to allow them to exercise if preferred!

About: Hi, I’m Chris! I’ve always loved being around dogs and have spent years caring for pups of all kinds — from high-energy adventurers to laid-back couch companions. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, and I’m here to give them the attention, care, and exercise they need while you’re away. Whether your dog loves a long, brisk walk or prefers a slower, sniff-filled stroll, I’ll adjust to whatever makes them happiest. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. Regular walks do more than just burn energy — they help dogs stay healthy, ease anxiety, and keep them mentally sharp. Plus, it gives them a chance to explore, smell new things, and just enjoy being a dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and be a part of their daily routine! I do a lot of running and trail running so if you have an active dog, we could have a lot of fun. But I also enjoy slow paced walks and just enjoying the environment. As I have had inside/outside dogs most of my life, I will always contain pets into the areas that are available for them but not a caged containment unless needed.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter with extensive experience and a passion for animals, I bring a unique blend of enthusiasm and responsibility to pet care. I grew up with two energetic mini Australian Shepherds who became my best friends. My love for my dogs and pets inspires my commitment to providing the best care possible. I love walking and running with dogs, ensuring they get the best exercise and attention they need to stay happy and healthy. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my personal connection with each pet, treating them as if they were my own, and my consistent reliability in adhering to their routines and needs. Your furry friends will benefit from a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. You will also have peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. Whether it's for a walk, a run, or a cozy overnight stay, I am here to cater to all your pet's needs with love and professionalism. I work remotely as a licensed teacher and translator. I love taking breaks to check in and/or walk your pet! It is always a great day when I get to care for your pet and to help you feel more relaxed that your pet is getting the best care possible. I am also a plant lover, so I am more than happy to water your plants while you are away! I love sending the owners lots of pictures of their furry friends while they are away. I am also happy to grab the mail for you! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine thanks to the flexibility of my remote work schedule. I am an online teacher and translator. Mornings kick off with energizing walks, setting a lively tone for the day. Working from home allows me to take regular breaks to tend the needs of the pets in my care, whether it's feeding or playtime. My flexible remote work schedule means I can adapt to the specific needs of each pet, providing them with consistent love and attention throughout the day. Safety, trust, and a fun, cozy environment are the heart of my pet care approach! With years of pet care experience under my belt, you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands. I love sending updates and photos while you are away! When I'm at your home, I stick to your pet's routine and make sure they feel secure and loved. My childhood dogs kept me on my toes and taught me the joy of a good play season and the comfort of a cozy nap. With plenty of exercise, belly rubs, and personalized care, your pet will have a blast and feel safe and loved! Please reach out to me with any questions or concerns!

“Linsie is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Her text responses are also super quick and she was able to agree to walk my dog with short notice. I had no problem trusting her with my fur babes. Thank you! It was a wonderful experience.”


About: My husband, Chris, and I love meeting and caring for dogs! We picked up Rover as a side job so we could spend some extra time caring for and playing with a variety of pooches. We are a great option if you want your fur family member to be loved on, taken on adventures, played with, and in constant companionship while you’re gone. We’ll make sure to send you updates and pictures if you’d like, and guarantee to treat your pet as our own. Between my husband and I, we always have someone caring for your doggo! I work as a school counselor with summers off, and my husband works close to home so he can stop in during the week working hours. We try to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible to keep them comfortable and happy in a new environment. Let us know what your furry friend likes to do, and we will accommodate!

About: I grew up with dogs and began housesitting for friends and family at a young age. I have also worked at a kennel for 3 years, and continue to work there while I'm home on breaks and holidays from school. This job has given me lots of experience with all kinds of dogs and temperaments. My family has 5 dogs, and we have fostered in the past. I have years of background on taking care of animals and would love to take care of yours! I can be pretty flexible. My afternoons are relatively free as I'm taking mostly morning classes. My Tuesday's and Thursday's are the most open. Over the summer, I work part-time at a kennel so my availability will be based on my schedule there. My goal is to make you and your animal feel safe and taken care of, so I will follow whatever directions are provided for me as every owner and their pet is different.

About: I have had dogs in my family since I was in 2nd grade, have trained my own dog and have dog sat for my sister in Colorado to keep up with walks and with his training. I love to help pet owners keep consistent expectations for their pets! I have work until 2:30 most days. I work at a school and often have meetings once programming ends. On Saturday’s I am mostly free, unless I am out of town! I have a fenced yard, and I also am very familiar with hiking trails around the la crosse area, if your dog needs some fun exercise! I am also very aware of other dogs behaviors on a trail and will be very cognizant of that and any other expectations you have on a walk with your furry friend.

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: Hi there - thanks so much for taking a look at my profile! I have had dogs in my life ever since I was born. My immediate family and other family members have always had dogs around that I have helped raise and train. Different things that I would do include taking them on walks, feeding them or giving any medications, bathing them, playing with them, etc. My partner and I adopted a kitten fall of 2021 and a puppy in the fall of 2024, and I have absolutely loved learning how to raise a cat and the major differences between cats and dogs haha! Having our own pets has only grown my love for all animals. I will always be sure to take care of your pets as I would my own. I too will frequently be checking in with you to update on how they are doing, sending pictures, and to keep an open line of communication both ways. I am in classes right now through an online program at UWSP and have a part time job here in La Crosse. I am around most if not all weekdays at basically any time needed, and most weekends too. I love to take walks and go to parks, or to sit around being lazy and basking in the sun! :) My cat is named Squid and my dog’s name is Wally. They are friendly with both other dogs and cats. We also have a large yard for your pets to go to the bathroom and play if necessary.

About: I have been taking care of pets my entire life! I have a dog of my own and she even had puppies last year! I raised the puppies myself and ensured they went to good homes! I took the time to make sure they were well trained before they went to their forever homes! I usually close at my other job, so I am usually free during any day until around 3 or 4pm! Again, with notice I can make any care needed work! I again have a dog of my own and can ensure that fur baby will be happy and have the company they need! My personal dog is certainly spoiled and well taken care of!
