“Maddy is an excellent sitter! I was gone, internationally, for 8 days, and she made sure to check on my kitties at the discussed frequency while also providing me with pictures every single day to keep my mind at ease. She is super communicative and friendly as well. I highly, highly recommend booking with her if she is available.”


“Jeanne was wonderful to work with and she was great with my four cats. I could tell in all the pictures that they really liked her and were very well taken care of. She was reliable and it gave us peace of mind knowing our babies were in great hands! We would definitely hire her again! Thank you, Jeanne!”


“Taylor was great with drop-in visits for my cat and had good communication. She tried to help him not be so scared of a new visitor and helped him with his water bowls/ice cubes which he is a little spoiled with, plus food and cleaned the litter. Will definitely book again as needed.”


About: I am from Norway, living in De Pere together with my husband and my 3 dogs. Since I am not working, I have a lot of time to take care of your pets. Always had dogs in my family. Have experience with high demand breeds like Siberian Huskies and senior dogs with health issues. Work as a volunteer at Wisconsin Humane Society. I'm currently volunteering part time at Wisconsin Humane Society and have plenty of time to take care of your dogs. Active person and available for short and long walks. My pets are part of my family. The pets will be treated as family members and receive a lot of love and care. I am hands on and very active with my dogs inside and outside.

About: I graduated with a degree in animal science from the University of Wisconsin- River Falls in 2023. I've been dog sitting for years, and my background in training service dogs has given me a deep understanding of how dogs think, feel and communicate. Whether I'm hanging out with a high-energy pup or a senior dog who just wants a comfy spot and some company, I always adjust my care to match their needs. I am big on routine, clear communication and creating a calm, positive environment while you're away. Lastly and most importantly, I treat every dog like they're my own: with patience, respect, and plenty of love. I’m available for pet care during mornings and afternoons, with consistent availability throughout the week. While I don’t accommodate last-minute bookings, I’m happy to schedule in advance to ensure your pet gets the attention they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or afternoon playtime, I’ll work with you to create a routine that keeps your pet happy and comfortable. I specialize in caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure while you are gone. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m respectful of your space, keep things clean, and always provide regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet (and your home) are in good hands. My goal is to make your time away as smooth as possible—for both you and your furry family member

About: I have cared for pets since I was a kid and have continued that love today! I have cared for animals of young and old age along with varying personalities. I adapt to each animal as needed! I am able to care for pets early mornings, afternoons, and evenings! I love to start and end my day with care as I have a job in between these times. I create a safe environment with pets by reading their behavior and adapting as time goes on. I try to make them as comfortable as possible as I understand a new person can be stressful! I am careful to care for all pets/home environment with high care as if it is my own!

About: I have had dogs since I was a child. I adore all animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I have fostered puppies and dogs which included medication administration. I have a senior dog myself now and have been adapting his care to adhere to his age. I have trained puppies before with potty training, teething, and walking on a leash. I work full time during the week but have a fairly flexible schedule. Primarily available on the weekends to love and care for your pets. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. I have a crate if needed. I will respect and follow any instructions when caring for your fur babies in your home. I will love and treat them like my own.

About: I’ve enjoyed playing with and taking care of dogs for 9 years now. Although I haven’t had one of my own, my neighbors, family’s, and friends fur babies have gotten so much love from me! I’ve dog sat for multiple families in the past, whether it’s just daily check ins or getting to cuddle up with pups overnight, and I’ve loved every minute of it! I know how to administer medicine, give correct portion sizes to fit their needs, and absolutely love going for walks. Your babies will be loved so much! I’m currently a college student and work part time Monday, Wednesday and Friday so overnight stays and evening visits after 5:30 on those days work perfect. Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m available in the morning and afternoons after 3:00. I’m available most weekends at any time, so overnight stays, and daily drop ins can happen at any time! When I meet your fur babies I will always be gentle, loving and caring towards them. I understand that meeting new people can either be scary or exciting, so I will take my time to earn their trust and safely get them where they need to go. Your fur babies health and safety is my number 1 priority, so if I need to take extra time to help them adjust I will!

For cat or kitten care, I will provide enrichment and activity in your home.

“This was the first time we left Tucker and Brodie at home with a drop-in petsitter and they seem to be so happy. Jessica was great with them, very flexible with her busy schedule, and kept us informed in how they were doing. We highly recommend her and would love to have her petsit for us again.”

I can put a treat on the ground next to my dog without her taking it until I give her permission. I am absolutely mind blown at how well Isabelle trained my dog. She is so patient and kind with dogs and people! I am so appreciative for her help and that counter surfing is no longer my dogs favorite hobby.”

“Paige has been a friend of mine for 10+ years. She has watched over my dogs for weeks at a time while my family went on vacation. I highly recommend her to take care of any pets!”
