About: I’ve cared for animals of all ages, breeds and personalities. I have experience working with senior pets or pets with disabilities who need medication administered or specialized care. Am also comfortable and capable of working with puppies or dogs of very high energy breeds. My goal is to make sure your pet is safe and well cared for while you are away. I currently work full time as a vet tech but can be available to feed, walk, exercise, potty, and spend time outside your pet before and after work and during my lunch break. I am available most afternoons after 2:30pm and all day Thursdays and Weekends. I offer House Sitting, but please note that I only book them on occasion. If your pet needs to be crated while nobody is home, or has health concerns that require someone to be with someone overnight, I will book them more frequently. I am more than willing to make more stops throughout the day with drop in visits, just please let me know. I also make sure to allow outside time to play to get out some energy. I will care for your pets in your home, reducing any stress of being in an unfamiliar environment. I also have the flexibility to adjust my schedule to fit their needs throughout the day.

“Paul did an awesome job taking care of our elderly dog. It was difficult to leave her with a new dog sitter (our usual sitter got a new job) but after meeting Paul and seeing that Rheyah was immediately comfortable with him, we felt confident that he would take good care of her. Paul made sure that Rheyah took her medicine multiple times per day, fed her a special diet and even gave her a partial bath every other night to treat her chronic skin condition. He also took her for 2 walks per day when the weather permitted. Paul’s frequent photos and descriptions of what he and Rheyah were doing helped to calm my anxiety about leaving her with someone new. Not only did Paul take care of Rheyah, but he also fed my fish and managed to keep my not-so-healthy plants alive! We are very grateful that Paul’s profile came up on Rover and that he agreed to take care of Rheyah so that we could attend our granddaughter’s 1st birthday. We highly recommend Paul to anyone who needs a conscientious caring pet sitter!”

“As first time Rover users, Meghan completely put our worries at ease and took the best care of our fur babies during the weekend of our wedding. I loved getting my picture updates of the pups knowing they were in the comforts of their familiar surroundings being cared for by somebody that knew what they were doing instead of being in a high stress environment. The dogs loved her too! We will 100% be using Meghan again in the future when we go on our honeymoon.”

“Courtney was very sweet and responded quickly to messages. There was a misunderstanding with her work schedule that she would not be in the home for 11 hours. I assumed she would come at lunch to let them out. Never assume - had to call neighbor to let dogs out 2 days as I did not want my dogs left that long without a potty break. Otherwise, all was good.”

“Emma is amazing! I loved that she wanted to meet me and Lacey before she accepted a job. It was important to her that we were all on the same page. I was able to talk about Laceys needs and routine in person, which really made me feel at ease. When the weekend came for her to stay at our house I was completely comfortable leaving Lacey in her care. She gave me updates and pictures which was great. Thank you Emma!!!!”

“I am an anxious cat mom and leaving my babies even for a few days is always rough for me. Finding a trustworthy sitter is VERY important to me and from the moment I met Stephanie I knew she would take excellent care of my babies. She sent me many photos every day and I loved seeing them happy in her care. She treated them like her own and slept with them every night. Stephanie is thoughtful, communicative, responsible and you can tell she has a genuine love of animals. I will 100% book her again for any pet care service. I can’t recommend her enough to take care of your babies because she took exceptional care of mine!!!”

About: Love to walk, run or go on hikes often depending on your request! Happy to assist your pet while you are away and send lots of updates! If visits are needed during the weekend and/or when school is off my three children will likely be joining me to help. I’m available full time, typically start dog runs at 9:00am and love to go on hikes (weather permitting) I am open to any additional pet requests. We have a large grassed yard with access to the lake for swimming and dock jumping. Additionally, daily walks and runs on leash. Lots of extra pet supplies if needed.

About: As far as experience goes there isn’t a time in my life I remember that I wasn’t caring for an animal. From reptiles, to rodents, to cats and dogs, I’ve had them all. From a young age I was taught responsibility and discipline when it came to caring for tiny creatures. Additionally for over two years I volunteered weekly at a local animal shelter. During this time I gained knowledge as to how animals interacted with one another, how to properly administer medication, warning signs to look out for, what to do in emergencies, and deeply studied animal behavior. To add on to that I am currently employed at a doggie daycare. During my time here not only have I gotten to widen my horizons when it came to taking care of animals but I have learned hands on how to bandage a wound, what to do in animal confrontations as well as how to handle the unexpected such as sickness or seizures. Additionally over the last 3 years I have volunteered at different animal welfare programs across the globe. These include Portugal, Puerto Rico, Tanzania and soon Hawaii. During this time I have not only seen hands on other cultures way of taking care of animals but also gained knowledge as to how to better the animal care I provide to clients. As I previously stated I currently am employed at a doggie daycare. Additionally I work at a bakery as well. My schedule changes weekly so it can be hard to give an exact time frame when booking. Typically I work up to 8 hour shifts. I typically prefer to stay in clients homes to keep their pets safe and happy in their own environment. I will be there in the morning before work, and will immediately come back when I get off as well as being there at night. I try to spend as much time as possible with the pets while you are away I typically only offer staying in the clients home and I am comfortable crating animals while gone. I always keep things like medications safely out of reach and secured. Additionally upon booking I typically ask about any health notes, allergies, or special needs as well as a good contact number for your vet in case of emergency.

“Grace is 100% reliable and great at communication. My pups adore her and she adores them back. Recently completed a 10 day business trip out of the country and she was amazing. Highly recommend d.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I currently have a cocker spaniel who is my whole world. I have trained him myself and love him like a child. I walked dogs for my hometown humane society growing up and will be happy to continue dog centered work for my West Bend and surrounding areas community! I work part time serving so mornings and all days mondays and tuesdays I am available! I love being outside and getting my steps in and have plenty of time to set aside for walking my furry friends! I believe playing with the pups is very important. I love playing fetch, training, and cuddling. I love trying new mind stimulating games for pups as well!

“Heather was so sweet and understood our animals are our family. She sent pictures throughout her stay which really put my mind at ease. We will book Heather again for the future!!”

“Allison took wonderful care of our fur babies (and our home). We appreciated the frequent pictures/videos, since we missed our boys something terribly. Our cats are usually scaredy cats, and hide from strangers. Allison bonded with them quickly and they were comfortable with her around. One of our cats require daily medication, and Allison was such a pro, making sure he was well cared for. We truly appreciate her care and support of our family and home. Would highly recommend.”

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs when they were away for years now and I am very trustworthy and responsible with every thing I do. I am working part time during the week and I have weekends mostly free so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your dogs! I have a giant yard and a little puppy that your dogs can play and run around with! I live on a quiet street with an electric fence to insure safety.

About: I have a passion for animals and the time to care for your fur baby! I especially love dog walking and doggy playtime, and can match your dog's energy!! I am currently unemployed, so I am very flexible with how I might fit pet care into my routine!! Weekdays work better for me, but I could swing weekends as well! I am able to come to your home and care for your pet in their usual environment. I will be respectful of a client's space, and will follow the routines the pet is typically used to.

“Rayanna was great !! She did such an amazing job with my dogs. We will definitely book her again. Ellie is a little high maintenance and Rayanna knew exactly how to handle her !! We felt such relief knowing we can trust someone in our home and with our doggies !!”
