House Sitting in Stephensville

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 is awesome Super friendly and my puppy absolutely loves her! She gets along well with my kids and is helpful in teaching them how to play with and train a puppy She even came at last minute's notice the first time She's fabulous!!”

“Tina was amazing staying with my dogs! She’s like an elderly dog whisperer and dealt with an unexpected snow storm and potty accidents with love and care. My dogs were so happy, would book again anytime!”

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.

“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!”

“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”

“Liz stayed at my house while watching my small senior dog (that takes meds), middle aged large dog and my cat for a week. It was great to have her caring for them!! She sent all sorts of cute pics - even left Polaroids of each which was the cutest!! She asked questions when needed which I completely appreciate. I really liked that she works remote because my pets are used to me being home. We would love to invite her back!! Thank you so much Liz!!”

“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.”

“Melissa stayed in our home and cared for our two pups while on a last minute trip. She was so caring to our aging pet who is 15 and diabetic while also managing our high energy labradoodle. Melissa has tremendous experience in caring for animals and issuing special medical attention if needed, she gave our pet insulin with every meal and always asked a question to make sure things were just right. We feel pretty blessed to have found Melissa to care for our home and pets while away. She left the house more tidy that when we left and went above and beyond for our family. We are so thankful to have found someone so kind and caring through Rover!”

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!

About: I have walked dogs in my neighborhood and have house sat for people with pets. I have also watched dogs for friends and family when they are out of town. I currently don’t work a steady job - I do pick up babysitting gigs or photography gigs and when I do that my husband is home to let out the doggies and snuggle them. I have a large back yard but it is not fenced and I live in a good area for walks! There are other dogs in the neighborhood.

“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.”

“Leah was very prompt in her response to our initial inquiry. She was willing and able to do a meet and greet with our beloved Jack within a few days. When we met her, we immediately knew we made the right choice and it would be a good fit. Leah more than delivered on taking care of our sweet although rambunctious boy! He can be difficult to take on a walk but she did it with ease. Leah gave us updates on how he was doing daily with pictures and videos, which we much appreciated. She left our home cleaner than we left it. We HIGHLY recommend her! Thank you Leah for helping our family be able to enjoy our vacation and know our Jack-o-bean was in great hands being taken care of!!”

“Sasha was, on e again, an incredible pet sitter for us. She took our dogs for walks daily, even in the middle of white out snowy conditions. She sent daily pictures and updates. She stayed at our house even on a holiday. She left our house cleaner than we did! We adore Sasha, and so do all five of our pets!”

About: We had a mini schnauzer growing up, who we adored! She taught us so much patience with the insistent barking, so I can handle anything!(: I’m looking to walk dogs when I have down time over the weekend, or on shorter days of work during the week (Tuesday, Thursday, some Fridays). I will be primarily walking dogs, but I will purchase a long leash for letting dogs hang out in my yard if we dog-sit. Our yard is half an acre, so plenty of space to run.

“First off Sarah, is not only the best dog sitter around the GB area, but an absolute joy to meet and work with. She took care of my 3 large dogs all who have meds and other needs, in addition to my boss 6 lb ginger cat. She provided me with multiple updates and pictures through out the day. I was apprehensive of letting a complete stranger in my home to watch my boys, but once I met her, I felt immediately at ease and my boys too! Thank you Sarah, for all that you did to care for the boys and my home. P.S. We owe you a pint of Carmel Truffle next time. 😉”

About: I’ve been in a household with dogs and other pets since I was little. I currently have one dog of my own and foster other dogs to train them and ensure they succeed in finding a good forever home! I love walking dogs and making sure they get their daily exercise. I’m currently in a slow season for my job and go through periods of being laid off. During those periods I am available everyday of the week to take care of your furry friend(s)! I love getting outside and ensuring your furry friends get their exercise they need. I also have experience with giving pups medications or other specific things they may need under my care. I can work on training simple commands as well as leash manners.

About: I have grown up with dogs, my whole life and have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs. I’m comfortable with a range of personalities and energy levels. I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering patients, kindness, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s a short walk or a game of fetch, I’m here to make your furry friend feel safe, happy and cared for while you are away. I am currently working 6am-2pm Monday-Thursday and have a waitressing job on the weekends where the schedule can vary (usually working nights). I will be sure to communicate weekends as we schedule! ⭐️ I will be moving to Stevens Point September 1! when I care for pets in a clients home, I follow their routines closely- honoring their preferences for feeding, medications, walks and play. I want their pets to feel as comfortable and stress-free in their own space. Communication is key, and I’m always happy to provide photo and text updates to ease any worry while you’re away.

“Melissa you were amazing and exceeded my expectations. You took wonderful care of our two basset hounds.”
