Dog Sitting in Shorewood

“Eliana was absolutely amazing with Duke. This was my first time using Rover and Duke had only been home for a few days, so I was honestly a little nervous — but she went above and beyond and made the entire experience stress-free. She was extremely attentive, followed all instructions, and kept me updated with messages, pictures, and videos which I really appreciated. What really stood out was her initiative — when she couldn’t reach me, she made sure Duke was still taken care of without hesitation, even going as far as getting him food. She also got Duke puppy training treats and a toy (a blue whale) that he now loves more than all his other toys — which really shows how much she paid attention to him and cared for him. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own. Duke was happy, safe, and well taken care of the entire time. I would 100% book with Eliana again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and truly dedicated.”

“Thanks, Amanda, for taking such good care of our kitties for the week! The drop-in updates were great and we appreciated seeing pix of the rascals. Excellent problem-solving, too!”

“Tiana has been visiting Bronson for a few months now and has done great with him. She clearly has a passion for animals and has also given a well written review with all the details of his care.”

About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I provide reliable, caring pet sitting and dog walking services. With an extensive background in animal behavior and care, I bring both professional and personal experience to every pet I look after. I’ve grown up with a dog for 8 years, currently share my home with my cat Sage, and even worked as an assistant zookeeper while studying veterinary science in college. These experiences have deepened my understanding of different animals’ needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or extra love while you’re away, I treat every furry friend like family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and help make your life a little easier! Monday-Thursday 7:00 am- 11:30am Friday Saturday and Sunday open availability I’m available for dog walks and pet visits Monday-Thursday between 7:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Friday-Sunday, I offer open availability for both walks and pet sitting, making it easy to schedule care that fits your needs. I provide attentive, compassionate care for pets right in their own home, so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. During my visits, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared-for, giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and routine as needed by them and their owner.

About: I have experience with all different dog breeds and sizes. I know great helpful training techniques. Also, I grew up living with dogs up until now. I have a full time Hybrid job. I work from home 3 days a week and the workload has been fairly light. I currently live with no furry friends and am missing the connection with them. I want to hold off on adopting right now so I thought the best way to fulfill my wants of having a dog will be through this app. I have no fenced in yard or much of a yard at all. My home is spacious though, so there is enough room for your pet to be comfortable and play indoors. I have 3 reptiles that will stay in their tanks and do not cause disruptions. They also love watching other animals from afar.

“Jillian was absolutely incredible when watching my 2 cats. They were both extremely comfortable around her, and she made my boys feel safe. When one of them puked a few times during visits, she cleaned it up and was very communicative. For my first experience letting someone besides friends watch my cats, 10/10, highly recommend Jillian!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three large dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience helping raise and train puppies, including one who recently turned one year old, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and administering medications to walks, playtime, treats, and cleaning up after pets. As a student-athlete home for the summer, I’d love to spend my extra time caring for animals and giving them the attention they deserve. My love for pets started at a young age—I even ran a homemade dog treat business to help earn money for my first two puppies! Since then, I’ve always enjoyed spending time with animals and treating them like family. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and companionship. As a student-athlete, I’m used to managing a busy schedule and staying organized, so I always make sure pets receive reliable and consistent care. Between work shifts and practices, I have plenty of availability to give pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on providing care in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and lots of love and attention. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care tailored to your pet’s needs.

“Bradlei has been amazing! My dog takes a while to warm up to new people and she’s not only been kind, but patient and understanding to his needs. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to have their fur babies taken care of without having to worry!”

I would love to spend time and take care of your fury friend while your away knowing they are not just a pet, but a part of your family.

About: Longtime pet owner and animal lover here! Nice to meet you :) From one pet owner to another, I know the anxiety that comes with leaving your pet while you are on a trip. That is why I feel so passionate about easing those worries and taking the best care of others pets for them. It is so special to be able to spend time with your fur babies, and to assure you that they will be taken care of so you don’t have any worries! It is my mission to take care of your pets as if they are my own. I always make sure to include lots of play and cuddle time. I include daily walks as well. I especially love to play games with them to tire out those active brains and make things more fun! Hide the treat is a favorite. I am currently in school part time. 3 days out of the week I am gone for about 5 hours. Every other day I would be there most of the day, and never gone for more than a couple hours. During drop in visits I always make sure to spend a few hours with the animals. Playing with them, taking them for walks, and of course giving them all the pets and loving. I know how hard it must be to be away from their family so I make sure that they have the best time while you are away and do not spend too much time alone. Whatever safety measures you require in your home I can make sure to accommodate! I can crate your dog if needed. And I always make sure walks are safe.
