House Sitting in Sturgeon Bay

About: I grew up with two dogs in the house as well as have watched and taken care of multiple friend’s pets when they have been out of town. I also have three cats of my own. I work full time from 7:30-5:00pm Monday through Thursday. 8am-Noon on Friday. Starting January 17th thru March 7th, I will be attending college and have class 6:30pm-9:20pm on Tuesdays. Weekends work well for overnight care. Available before and after work and days off are full attention to pet. I make sure that they are properly nourished and taken care of as well as given attention so that they don’t feel alone. I treat them as if they were my own.

“Tara was an absolute pleasure to work with. I needed a dog sitter last minute after a cancellation, this was my first time using Rover and I was honestly a little nervous with the process. It made our trip much more enjoyable knowing that our dog was not only able to stay in our home but in such great care with Tara. I felt very comfortable with Tara staying in our home, we returned to a very clean house and she even moved packages that had been delivered inside. When we arrived at home, our dog Skookum was laying on the guest bed so I could tell he enjoyed Tara’s company. We received many photographs from different trails around town, so we know our active dog was in good hands.”

“Kelsey is absoutely fantastic! When we had a petsitting need right after her first time caring for our pets, there was no question that we would ask her back. She sent so many fun photos, and our dog LOVES her! The first thing Roxie did when she woke up this morning was look for Kelsey! She left the house in great shape and went above and beyond to make sure our dog and cat were healthy and happy during our absense. Thank you, Kelsey!”

About: I've sat many pets over the past years- cats,and dogs, although I'm open to sitting for new animals! I've worked with older animals as well as puppies and am a good cleaner. I'm happy to take your fur babies on walks or stay at your house to sit. Unfortunately, my landlord does not allow dogs at my apartment. I am usually pretty flexible and have pet sat for up to a week straight before! I can be available during the days and nights as needed. If I have a full work shift, I take my lunch breaks to come visit, feed, and let the animals relieve themselves. I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash. I have had pups before who have liked to walk themselves. This was new for me, however the owner insisted that if we were close to home, they were okay. If there is more than one animal, I try to walk and feed them separately incase either is protective over their food or myself. I'm fine with animals on the couch or bed as long as the owner is. As for water, I try to change/ clean water bowls twice per day to keep them clean and appealing.

“Kirra was great! Helped us out with a last minute request for the weekend and sent plenty of photos.”

About: **Note right now I do travel from north of Milwaukee, to Door County from Lake Michigan to Wisconsin Rapids area. I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.

About: Hi, you can call me Lolo. I am a big lover of dogs and had a small dog growing up. I have been walking dogs since the summer of 2021. I have experience with walking medium sized and smaller dogs, but I am open to any size and type of breeds. I even have experience watching cats and had birds growing up as a child. I am currently a stay at home mom which gives me more flexibility and choosing to do what I love the most, which is spending time with and taking of dogs! I am very responsible, attentive, and outgoing which are all some qualities I think are very important when it comes to taking care of dogs. I am looking forward to meeting you and your sweet dog(s)! I am a stay at home mom and have a lot of downtime to spend some time with your dogs. Pet care is a job for me and my schedule is very flexible! I have crate training experience. My neighborhood is very safe and I live in a house with a lot of trees and woods so the dogs can run around. There are not too many dogs around, so you won’t have to worry about other dogs!

“Fantastic couple! Sandy had a great time visiting. We were consistently updated with pictures. Great communication. Lots of indoor and outdoor playtime. Would definitely recommend and would use them again!”

“Jessika was great. Highly recommend. The first day we met her, I knew right away the dogs would be in great hands. Kept me updated on them, sent pics. Anytime I messed her she responded right away with pictures, which made my vacation even better since I wasn’t worrying about them. Jessika is awesome”

About: *** Flat rate fees, no extra charges for additional pets (within reason) *** With over 25 years of experience in pet and house sitting, I bring a wealth of expertise and knowledge to ensure your peace of mind while you're away. My extensive background includes caring for a diverse range of breeds, ages, and needs, equipping me with the ability to tailor my services to meet the unique requirements of every furry friend. From energetic puppies to wise seniors, I understand the distinct care each pet deserves. Not only do I specialize in dogs, but my experience extends to cats and various other pets, guaranteeing a well-rounded care approach. More than just experience, I offer trustworthiness and dependability. You can rest assured knowing that your beloved pets and home are in capable and caring hands while you're away. Working a full-time remote position provides me with the flexibility to offer live-in pet and home sitting as my preferred service. This arrangement ensures that your pets receive constant care and companionship throughout the day, creating a stress-free environment for both them and you. While I may need to run home, errands, or attend appointments during evenings and weekends, rest assured that I maintain a clear schedule and prioritize the well-being of your pets. They will never be left alone for any duration that you wouldn't be aware of, ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. While drop-in care is available, I focus that service solely on clients within the Howard, Suamico, Pittsfield, Pulaski, and Chase areas to minimize travel time and maximize the quality of care I can provide. Due to the settings of this app, I am unable to add specific ranges, based on home sitting compared to drop in visits. Each drop in visit request will be reviewed and approved dependent on a case by case basis. When entrusted with caring for pets in their home while their owners are away, my foremost priority is to ensure their comfort and well-being by maintaining a sense of familiarity and routine. I understand the importance of listening closely to the owners' instructions and preferences, striving to replicate the same routines and habits that the pets are accustomed to when their owners are present. Whether it's meal times, exercise routines, or favorite activities, I make it a point to adhere closely to their established schedule to minimize any disruption or stress. Additionally, I am more than happy to provide small tasks around the house to keep it running smoothly in the owners' absence, such as handling mail and packages, managing garbage bins, watering plants, and tending to bird feeders. By attending to both the needs of the pets and the maintenance of the home, I strive to create a seamless and comfortable environment that mirrors the owners' presence as closely as possible.
