Pet Sitting in Sand Lake

“Michael, is fantastic. He was very communicative and even offered to grab packages while we were out of town. He sent photos from all visits and was diligent about cleaning the cat boys box and ensuring that they were fed separately due to dietary requirements. We will absolutely be working with him again A+. Thank you for an awesome experience!”

“Jennifer had great communication and was always sure to send photos of the kitties during her visits. She was even able to get my shy kitties to come out for treats 🥰”

“Heather (and her daughter) do a great job with our dogs! We accidentally left the door locked and she couldn’t get to the food, but she very promptly notified us and Rover to follow up!”

“Was so sweet and thoughtful! Sent the cutest pics and left anxiety relief doggy music on :) Were also super flexible which I so appreciate. Thank you!”

About: I work from home and have the ability to let the dogs out regularly. We have a 4.5 acres property, a 40'x40'x6' play area "dogpark", and a large climate controlled pole barn to play in when it's too hot or cold, outside. We live in a quiet neighborhood for leashed walks. If you will be awau for several days and have cats, too, I'm not able to board kitties, but I am willing to visit them, feed, water, and clean their litter boxes, for an extra fee. I need to figure out how to list this in the River app. Working from home allows me to let the dogs out as needed. We have quiet times where pups can rest and I can get a few things done, then back outside to play. We love leisurely walks, playing tug, cooling off in the sprinkler, and playing fetch. When its too hot we have frozen engagement toys, and a cool pole barn for some play time. In winter months the pole barn is heated for more play time.

“Heather was both professional and friendly. I could tell right away that she loved animals. She kept in touch while I was out of town and I look forward to having her back in the near future.”

About: I’ve worked at a kennel located in New Richmond, WI since I was 16, so animal care is not new to me! I found that my love for animals is something that I should put to use, so here I am! Throughout my career at the kennel, I have bathed, fed, exercised, and even provided at home care for multiple dogs! I also assisted with newborn puppy delivery and nurturing/caring for puppies ranging from newborn - 8 weeks. I also spent the entire 2022 summer working at a local vet clinic as a Veterinary Technician Assistant. I am a college student at UW-Stout, with in-person classes occurring only 2 hours/day! I want to spend that quality time with you pet to create a bond that we can hopefully continue in the future! I have a friendly Golden Retriever and 7 month old kitten that will keep your pet comfy and feeling “at home” during their stay! I want to provide the upmost comfort whether I am hosting or caring for your baby at your own home.

About: I grew up in an animal loving family and now want to offer my services to other animal lovers! We have had many foster dogs and puppies. I have gone through the potty/leash training phase many times. I also have experience with farm animals as well as kitties! Typically I walk our dogs every other day. I have a fenced yard for playtime and potty breaks during the day. I am going back to school in the Fall and will have a much more flexible schedule during the week and weekends. In our home, the dogs are allowed on the furniture. They sleep in the bed, but our female is crated during the day as she has liked to chew on more than toys in the past. I have a fenced yard and a nice neighborhood for walks. My fiancé lives with me, but it would be just me that is in care of the animals.

“Very easy to deal with. Did exactly what I asked, sent pictures every day.”

About: I have two cats, Lionel and Stella, both are my absolute world. I fully understand how much our pets mean to us, they are our family, and we want them in the best care. I will love and care for your pet like they are my own 🤍 I work full time, Monday through Friday, but can check-in on your pet after work and available on the weekends. I can provide a safe comfortable place for your pet to stay while you are away. Your pet will have my full attention, they will be well fed and will receive plenty of love and care. I can provide proof of life photos upon requests.

About: My husband and I are a team of active, educated individuals who love all types of dogs! My husband is a high school math teacher and I am a high school counselor. Working from home during summer has allowed us plenty of time to spend with our dog. We have a 5 year old Yellow Lab who still has the energy of a puppy! We keep up with all routine vet visits and our dog is caught up on all vaccinations including Bordetella (kennel cough). My husband and I live in town but have a large backyard to accommodate play time. We allow our dog on furniture and in our bed a night time..dogs don’t get the long, full life that is humans get, so we like to let him live it as a spoiled pup! We will love your dog like our own!

“Amanda provided excellent care for our 2 kitties! She made sure they had enough food and water each time she visited and scooped their box! She even went above and beyond by asking to clean up a puking mess they made. Communication was perfect and the pictures were great! Will for sure use again and recommend to others!”

About: I have always had pets while growing up. Rabbits, dogs, cats, calves. My family lived on a farm in my younger years and I absolutely loved the animals we had and loved caring for them. I do drop in visits to care for some of my friend's animals and I also walk dogs,play with them and keep them company while their owner's are at work. My pet's have always been considered my kids and I take the utmost care for friend's,family and customer's pets--as if they were my own. Animals seem to warm up to me right away. I look forward to meeting your pets and making a great relationship with them. I am on Social Security Disability so I am unable to work. I am disabled due to neck surgeries/pain but caring for animal's does not not interfere with my pain. It's very therapeutic for me to be around animals. I am usually very flexible with my schedule, as to fit you in, if I have a 3 day (or more) notice. I am not offering pet sitting in my own home but will gladly do drop in visits at yours or walk your animal(s) from your home.

About: My pal Argus and I are glad to watch your dog in your home or ours. We treat all dogs like family, and we love meeting new friends. I work remotely and have flexibility to help out dogs. I'm glad to quickly let you know if a booking works for my schedule. Thanks! I'm very keyed into the dogs I watch and responsive to their needs. I make some exercise a priority but make sure to be aware of how much they need. I'm very good at following any special instructions you may have too.

About: Dogs bring us all so much joy! I have had one my whole life. I walk my dog everyday and would love to walk yours too! I work part time which affords me the time to take care of your pet. I work part time which gives me availability to walk your pet! I love hiking, walking or running. It would be even better to do this with your pet! I have lived in this area my whole life. I am happy to come take care of your pet when you need it! Nobody wants their pet to be lonely.

“Dogs were happy when I got home! Thanks Katlyn!”

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

About: I have had dogs for 5 years and recently added a cat to the bunch! I love spending time with them by walking them on our large property! I work 7:30-3:30 as a school teacher, but my husband leaves around 9am on the weekdays. I spend every minute after that with my pets! I will care for the pets in whichever way is preferred by their owner. We have a large yard that is far away from a busy street.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was in high school. Cleaning litter, walking dogs, and feeding times. Doesn't even seem like a job when you get to spend time with animals!! I work full time Monday through Friday but I am able to drop by for walks and visits beofe or after work! I get off of work at around 3 pm so that provides alot of time for your fur babies. I am unfortunately unable to house/board pets because of family members with allergies. This is not a service that I am able to offer at this time.

About: Im retiring from work. I enjoy all pets. I love to stay busy. I am looking for things to do. Get out of my house. Have dogs come to my place. Im open anytime. I plow snow on the side. I am open to having dogs at my home. Just check in with me. See what we can work out. I have a 12 year old maltese. Hes protective. But were looking to stay busy during this life change. Always have been an animal lover.
