“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!”


“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!”



“Excellent. If I could give Rachel 10 stars it would still not be enough! She communicated with us. Sent pictures everyday. It was very clear to us that she cared deeply about our little dog trio which was very comforting to us. Our flight home was delayed 24 hours and she readily agreed to stay with our furry babies until we could get home. Thank you so much Rachel! ❤️”


“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.”


“Heather did an amazing job with my boy Palo Santo. He is a large German Shepherd but still has puppy energy only being 1.5 years of age. She sent pics and videos of them playing in our yard. He absolutely loved having her as his sitter. We also felt comfortable with her having access to our home and being respectful. Heather was attentive and reliable. I would absolutely give her 5 stars and will continue to use her in our home 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 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

“We can’t say enough good things about Jaimie! Her communication was amazing and her care for our dogs was top notch! With her care and attention we were able to throughly enjoy our vacation. The dogs loved Jaimie and we would certainly hire her again - the dogs would be thrilled!”


“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 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: 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: 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.

“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing when she watched my dog, Buster. She made sure all his needs were met and gave him extra love during the time I was unable to be with him. He is a needy dog and she went above and beyond for him! I highly encourage having her watched your four-legged family members when you cannot be there for them.”

“Hello, Samantha came to my home and let my Bella out to potty and visited with her for a bit while I was out of town.
