House Sitting in Sherwood

About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life, from free roaming farm dogs to the most spoiled Pomeranians. I’m the guy who has treats and a leash in his car just in case I see a loose dog running around or hear there’s one nearby. I’m the guy who will remember your dog’s name, but probably not yours. I’m the guy pet owners warn that their dog is anxious of people, only to watch their dog sense my immediate love for them. I work as a freelancer, so my availability is mostly wide open outside of some specific appointments and projects that will be noted in my profile. In your home, I will follow any patterns and schedules you request to maintain a consistent experience for your dog. I have three dogs in my home consisting of two puppies and one senior, so I will not be hosting any appointments here at this time.

“Olivia took great care of our Sippi while we were out for the day. It took some time to find someone who we trusted to stay in our home while away and Olivia fit the bill. She is a very kind person and we will absolutely use her again. Thanks again Olivia!”

“Jenna, did a fantastic job. Took a huge weight off my mind. The dogs loved her and she even brought them to the hospital to visit. And when I got home, the place was spotless!!!! Thanks Jenna”

“Alex was truly a dream! The BEST Rover experience we have had. Dishes done, house immaculate and most importantly Maisy LOVED her. We hope that she will stay with us for a long time!”

About: Hello! My name is Emilie and I have been caring for animals my entire life. I received my first dog (a lab) as a birthday gift at 5 years old and loved every minute of it. Since then, our family has gotten two more dogs (one being another lab, the second a small Lhasa Maltese) and two bunnies. I love animals so much I started working at a veterinary clinic. Here I dealt with a large variety of animals, from ferrets to birds, including dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, needs, and temperaments. I am PetTech (PetSaver) certified and trained in CPR, First aid, and care and can provide the certification upon request. I have an extensive background in administering many different medications (as well as oral vaccines). I also have trained several dogs in the past. Many around me know of my passion for animals, thus being how I became known as the neighborhood animal sitter, sitting nearly a half dozen neighborhood pets alone. I have cared for and pet-sat neighborhood animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and fish for a number of years. I feel like I have a deep connection and understanding with every animal I meet, and I love to make both my and their day spending time together! That is why I am on this app, to spend more time doing what I love- taking care of and playing with your fur baby! I am a business owner, so I welcome and am pretty flexible with drop-in visits requests. I find working with animals to be very rewarding and fulfilling to me. I am looking to set up reoccurring daily and/or weekly pet care. I would love to get to know several animals very well and provide them the topmost quality care on a consistent basis. However, I am also open to short term care situations. For any other requests or questions, Please let me know! If you would like pet care for a time that I am not available on my calendar, please contact me to see what we can do! As of now, I do not offer pet care at my house. However, I would be more than willing to come to you to keep your animal relaxed and comfortable in their own home. When at your home, your animal will receive the most exceptional care and treatment possible. I treat everyone's animal as if they are my own. I also treat your home with respect, ensuring I strictly follow your directions as well as clean up after both myself and your fur baby. If you allow, I would love to spoil your pet with their favorite treats, activities, and mental stimulation/engagement. I enjoy providing picture updates for my clients. Living in Appleton, I can make just about any time work with a notice in advance. In hopes of doing this nearly full time, I would love to fill my week completely with pet sitting Monday-Friday. Having owned pets as well as having worked at a vet clinic, I prioritize keeping a close eye on each critter I watch. I know how important each individal animal's wellbeing is and how quickly that could change. I feel confident that I am always hyper-aware of animals' saftey and keep the closest eye on them and their health, as I know what to watch for.

About: I love to walk, so active dogs who also love it are perfect for me! I am adventurous and am up for longer walks. Learning a pets personality means a lot to me, so that I am able to tend to their wants and needs. I am very patient with young, adult, or senior pets. Enrichment is very important to their happiness and I am happy to provide that for them. Although i’m not a professional trainer. I am capable of teaching simple commands and will encourage commands that are taught. I have plenty of time to spare, given I just got back from a month long trip and need some time to settle back in to my daily life. For the next while I will have plenty of availability. What better way to spend my time? I always carry treats on me for play, learning time, or just being the best pup/kitty. In a clients home I am more than repectful of said requirements. I will always make sure your baby gets their meal on time, and always has water. I will always clean up after them. They will never get bored, all of my attention will be focused on them to ensure they are always engaged while you’re gone. My goal is to make you and most importantly your babies happy, because then I am too!

“I have 2 small dogs. I was gone for a long weekend and had her come in 3-4 times a day to let the dogs out, feed them and play with them. Bri was great with the dogs. They liked her from the 1st time she came for a meet and greet. I will defiantly use her again”

“Alisha did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs in my home. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the weekend. I will be sure to use her again.”

About: I've grown up with dogs and once I lived on my own, soon adopted 3 cats. I've had several dogs and cats throughout my life, loving them as my children. Every animal I meet melts my heart in their own special way and I fall in love every time. I would be honored to care for your fur [or scale!] baby/ies! I currently work part time at petco in the evenings mostly. I do have my own animals, but find myself always wishing I had more. I have plenty of time and heart to give! I will feed your animal the directed amount in the directed time. I will play with your cat/dog several times throughout the day. For dogs, potty breaks every 2 hours minimum. And as many cuddles and hugs as they want!

“Leah took great care of all the animals and the house while I was away. She kept me updated with pictures and videos. I never needed to worry and always had full confidence everyone was getting plenty of love and attention.”

Jami D.

“Jas is absolutely amazing. She did a great job with Bailey and Buster. She was prompt. Provided updates frequently. I look forward to booking her services again.”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8 years old, when my family adopted a miniature schnauzer. Even before then, we had everything from hamsters to fish and the like, kid pets, ya know? Following our dog’s passing, I’ve helped care for a senior cat that my parents had and also three different orange cats that my wife and I have shared over the last three years! Being a cat owner, there isn’t too much of my non-work daily or weekly schedule that isn’t taking care of them: cleaning the litter box, keeping their automatic feeder and water filled, giving them wet food and playing with them! Caring for your cats animals as I have in the past will fight right in with my schedule, and I can’t wait to work with you! I always make sure to take myself on a walk daily, and I’d love to take your best friend with me! I get in 1-2 miles daily, but I am willing to adjust this to fit your pets needs. In your home I’d love to feed, spend time and play with, and care for your pet.

“Jessica is wonderful. A week before she sat for our senior dog, our other senior dog passed so she was.amazingly understandung and kind to our boy, Louie who was lost without his lifelong pal. Jessica will be our.go to from this point on. Thanks soooo much, Jessica!!!”

“Anna did a wonderful job! My kitty is shy and Anna was even able to pet her once in a while-which is huge for my kitty! Anna was also able to house sit for us, so Kitty wasn’t home alone at night while we gone. Great experience for us. I will be hiring her again.”

About: I am unable to own any pets of my own and I miss the four legged friends, I adore playing and walking with dogs and look forward to getting to know each pup.❤️ I grew up with a golden doodle, Daisy, and now my parents have a second golden doodle, Piper, which I visit and walk and house sit for regularly. I have training experience and will be able to learn and use the commands for your pups as well. Any behavior specifics and general rules will be followed. Any time I pet sit I always keep the space tidy and cleaner than I found it! I have experience with dogs with food sensitivities, stomach issues, as well as social and separation anxiety. I am able to schedule meets in advance for any socially nervous pups to make sure they are comfortable with me. I work full time, ten hour days, every Tuesday-Friday, so I am available for house sitting, but cannot cater to taking the dogs out middle of the day. I am available to feed or walk and play morning and night every day. I do not have any pets of my own, but I grew up walking and taking care of our family dogs and am excited to meet new doggy friends❤️

“This is the second time we have had Sasha house/pet sit for our two large dogs and two cats. Once again, she did a fantastic job! She even watered our new plants for us. She kept the dogs active and busy. She spoiled them better than we do! She was in daily communication with us including pictures. I highly recommend Sasha (as long as you don't steal her for the dates we want) 😉.”

“Our dogs enjoyed being with Ben while we were away. Not many people would feel comfort walking our Great Dane or patio enough for our senior Greyhound, but Ben manages both dogs well. Thank you! Lisa and Doug”

About: I have experience caring for all shapes and sizes of dogs, I treat every dog with love and kindness as if they were my own! I will respect your home and privacy and you can always expect 100% professionalism from me! I currently have a flexible schedule with plenty of time for drop in play dates or dog walks throughout the week. I prefer time windows between 8-5. My dogs currently have a fenced in half acre to run and explore with 2 doggy entrances, one through the garage and one through the patio.

“Kyla is an amazing dog sitter! We met for about an hour a couple of days in advance for her to meet them before she came to stay. They loved her immediately. She sent updates and pictures regularly throughout the weekend. It was obvious the dogs loved her and were comfortable with her. I will try to get Kyla as my sitter any time I need to go out of town.”

About: If your smaller non-shedding dog (up to 40 lbs) does not like other pets, I'm your sitter! There are no other pets in the house, and I specialize in dogs who do not like other animals. Have owned and loved dogs my entire adult life. In retirement I've chosen not to own one, but I miss those little guys so much and would love to love on your precious pet. I am retired and can fully care for your smaller (up to 40#), potty-trained, non-shedding dog. On weekends in the summer I may talk to you about your friend joining me at my camper. I will provide care for your smaller non-shedding dog without other animals in my home. Perfect for those cuddlers who would rather not have competition for my attention!
