About: I volunteered at the Wisconsin Humane Society for 3 years, dog walking and later did dog enrichment! I’ve always had pets and am always patient with nervous pets, they have boundaries too! I am currently on the job hunt so as of right now I have all the time in the world to care for animals! I’d still like a heads up but I can be quite flexible. I cannot have pets at my home due to a very jealous dog and a cat but I’d be glad to take care of your dog or cat in your home!
2. Lauren B.
About: Throughout my life, I’ve grown up with cats & dogs and have learned to care for all their needs. I love making pets happy! I am interested in taking care of dogs & cats. I am open every morning from 7am - 11am. Afternoons from 2pm - 4pm & again in the evening 6pm - 8pm. I will make it a priority that your pet is cared for while you are away. I enjoy taking them on walks, giving them play time and extra love! Each morning, I take my dog out for a walk or play time for about 20 min. This gives him a chance to go potty. I take my dog out every 3-4 hours. I always make sure my pet has food and water throughout the day. Depending on the weather, and if I have to be gone for 3-4 hours, my dog gets to go to the dog park for more exercise later that afternoon. I will always make sure your pet has fresh water, good exercise, and enough potty time too. Making sure your pet is taken care of & feels loved while you’re away will be my priority!
