Cat Sitting in Star Lake

“Our dog absolutely LOVED Mackenzie. She was so easy to work with, very kind, and even took the time to bring in our trash cans and reposition them so they wouldn’t break a window during a massive wind storm. I’d recommend her to everyone!”

“We just recently found Jayne and are absolutely thrilled! She took the time to meet with us in advance of our trip to discuss our needs and ask questions about the drop-in visits for our pets. While we were away, Jayne sent us daily photos, video and updates on the cats. We could tell they were well cared for and happy upon our return. We really appreciated Jayne’s reliability and the care she provided. We would not hesitate to schedule her for future visits.”

About: I have taken care of my pets my whole life and now I’ve got a pittie of my own so I will love and care for your pet like they are my own. I work full time at Wildwood Wildlife Park and Zoo as a zookeeper. I get two days off during the week but they are random unless I take off. I am able to move my schedule around to be fully available for your pet if needed, you would have to give me at least a week in advance. Otherwise I am free after work and overnight at anytime I am completely comfortable taking your dog for walks or the park. Anything you would like me to do. I have a car hammock in my car to keep them comfortable and safe.

About: Pets have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember; dogs, cats, hamsters and fish. I’ve had fun loving labs who love to explore, swim and retrieve, worked with both Alaskan and Siberian huskies on sled dog team, plus a few playful and curious cats who keep life interesting and fun! I enjoy walking, running, swimming and playing with my silly black lab mix, Luna. Over the last 20 years, I’ve been lucky enough to learn how to run and take care of both Alaskan and Siberian Husky sled dogs in both Minnesota & Wisconsin. Both kennels I worked for had over 20 working dogs. Taking people of all ages on dogsled rides was an exhilarating experience! Getting to know the personalities, body language, strengths and weakness of each dog was an important learning process as a musher. I also had an opportunity to work with wolves at the International Wolf Center (IWC) in Ely, MN. These are educational wolves, known as Ambassadors. The wolf “pack” accepted me and I was able to enter their enclosure, give them their daily vitamins in meatballs, clean the enclosure and socialize 2 wolf pups as we welcomed them to the IWC. Learning their body language and responding to those messages was a key component to the wolf care responsibilities, safety and code of conduct. I love walking and playing with dogs. It’s my favorite part of the day and I look forward to finding a pack here in northern Wisconsin. I’m a School Librarian and on the weekdays I have extra time in the morning between 8am-10am and after school between 4:30pm-8:30pm. I will have more flexibility on the weekends. Summer, between June-August will open up more availability as well. I’m currently working part-time at an elementary school library. My hours are 10-4:30pm. I’m available before and after school. Weekends are typically open too. Summer months will open up more availability too. We have an underground fence for our dog. She’s friendly, flexible, patient and submissive. However, tends to get anxious when we leave but is calm and comfortable in her crate. I give her a “challenge” treat when we leave to keep her stimulated as well. We have a good communication to meet her needs.
