“We love Addie! She has house sat for us a couple times now and done a drop in visit as well. She is quick to respond and willing to work with you on shifting times or unexpected situations. If she has a question or concern about your home or pup, she asks. Addie is also thoughtful and we can tell our pup enjoys having her around!”


“Preston came over prior to dogsittting for a meet and greet with the dogs. We have 3 large dogs which can be a lot. She did great with them over the weekend! We would definitely book her again!”


“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!”


“Emily was wonderful with Ernie. She sent photos of him relaxing! It's always easier to be away when you know your furbaby is being well taken care of!! Highly recommend Emily. Will definitely schedule with her again!!”


“Isabella provided excellent care for our two dogs while we were away for an extended weekend. She provided daily updates with pictures. They had lots of playtime and were happy pups! We came home to a clean house with everything as we had left it. Thank you, Isabella!”


“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.”


“Lacey was the perfect housesitter plus more! She was so great with our pets and went above and beyond to keep our home together while we were away, including some household cleaning we didn’t ask for, but deeply appreciated. It was so relieving to come home to a home that was cleaner than when we left it! We will 💯 check with Lacey the next time we need care. 10/10 recommend!”

About: Hello! Thank you for taking a moment to view my profile. I am an experienced, compassionate pet sitter and I also have a degree as a Vet Tech, so you can be sure your pet will be in good hands. I have taken care of pets in my neighborhood for over 25 years now, and have many long-term clients. I enjoy long walks, running, playing, snuggling, you name it. I don't just show up and sit there. I have experience giving meds, changing bandages, and more as well, so if there's an extra step needed to ensure your pet is healthy and happy, I am able to assist. Why I love dog sitting I have had animals my whole life, grew up on a farm. I’ve been pet sitting for 25 years for a large variety of pets. I’m comfortable with all breeds, ages, and temperament. My experience administering medication Yes. As a Certified Veterinary Technician, I have administered pills, shots, ointments, etc. I have worked in a traditional clinic setting as well as in some pretty remote locations in Mexico so I am well versed in a variety of meds and situations.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since I was a kid and have loved watching family and friends dogs as well. I worked in a dog-daycare for about a year so I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, ages and personalities. My dog I got as a puppy and my family dog is now 14 so i have a good understanding of all ages and their needs. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to tend to your dogs and all their needs, my work is very flexible so with notice I can usually make anything work. I am very thorough about reading and following any instructions given, I will keep strict supervision of your dog, i worked with dogs in a boarding and daycare center for almost a year so my main job was watching and making sure all the dogs are safe, if anything happens to come up I will contact you immediately and I always make sure I know what vet I can contact.

About: Growing up with two dogs and a kitten sparked my lifelong love for animals. While I’m not yet in a position to adopt a pet of my own, my partner and I both grew up surrounded by furry friends and deeply miss the snuggles, walks, and unconditional love we shared with them back in our hometown. Caring for your pets would be a wonderful way for us to fill that space and share our love for animals! My partner and I both work full-time in professional roles Monday through Friday, but my workplace is conveniently close to home. This allows me the flexibility to take lunches and breaks as needed, ensuring I can meet your pet care needs with reliability and attention. I currently don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I live in a pet-friendly home with a backyard (unfenced) and easy access to nearby trails for walks, if that’s something your pet enjoys. I’m very relaxed when it comes to pet preferences—pets are welcome on furniture and even in bed with me! I’m happy to be flexible and follow your specific directions to ensure your pet feels right at home.

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!

“I was so thrilled to find Hannah! My dog doesn't like to be away from home so I booked Hannah for house sitting, and she was more than happy to spend the long weekend with Max. Max loved her when she came by for the meet & greet and I knew he'd have a good friend for the weekend. Not only that, my apartment was cleaner than when I left it; she even washed the towels and sheets she used, which by no means did I expect her to. I would love to have Hannah back for future Max-sitting 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 have been taking care of pets since I was ten years old. In my family, pets have always been a big factor in creating a loving home. My bond with animals is very important to have in my life, which is why I am passionate about for caring them. Family members have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats. At the moment, I have a cat and a dog who I truly love and care for the most. I hope that seeing this lets you know I care very much for our furry babies. I currently am going to school and working part time. I am looking for new ways to help others and making a little money on the side. I have always enjoyed taking my pets for walks and know that other families would appreciate it as well. I usually get extra time where I am available to trying to new things and feel this is what I should be doing. In my home I have two pets a dog and a cat who I adore very much. I have always treated them like they are my children and give them what they need. I always let my pets go outside and take them on walks as well. I feed them with the right meals they deserve and give them as much love as I can. I have always made sure my pets stay healthy and fit to enjoy their lives as long as they can. No matter what I always try to do the best I can to give the best life for my pets.

Holly K.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Holly as a dedicated and compassionate pet enthusiast. While she does not currently own a dog, she keeps in very close contact with her two family dogs back home. Daily, she will FaceTime family members or request pictures to check in on them. Additionally, she makes frequent trips home to spend time with them regardless of their need of supervision. She makes sure they have nutritious meals and get lots of exercise while showering them with endless, and I mean endless, affection. Her commitment to their well-being is evident through her treatment of them basically as family members. Anyone would be fortunate to have someone as thoughtful and responsible as Holly looking after their animals.”
