“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”


About: I pet sit my friends & family's pet whenever they need someone to take care of their fur babies! I love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. I am free to help most days after 3 PM or on the weekends for the full day I’m looking forward to meeting your fur babies. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a secure, loving, and stress-free environment where your furry friend can feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they receive the love, care, and attention they deserve. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands with me!

About: Born and raised in Germany with beautiful cats of all shapes and sizes. My very first cat was my beloved Minki that was a proud 17 years and deaf in both ears! If that wasn't enough, she also only had three teeth and was rescued from the roads. She taught both my mother and I how to be responsible and how pets ARE family. After Minkis passing, my beloved Imy has entered our hearts. Imy was a strong headed almost human-like boy. He knew how to potty on the human toilet, went on walks with me and accompanied me to my school. He was very protactive of us and very clingy. We unfortunately lost him in 2014. Also his name choice might be surprising, but I was a little girl that thought that pretty kitty must be a girl! Well, the name stuck with us! In 2014 we adopted two pretty twin kittens Pixel and Gray. They are going strong at 11 years old, and live with my mother in Germany. After leaving my life behind in Germany to be with my husband, I was determined to be pet free, no hair, no bills - yay! Until we drove to an appointment on a super cold day and encountered a barely alive kitten - our now baby boy Basil. Basil is the light of our hearts and became a big brother as we adopted Toast just a little over a month ago! I have experience with both female and male cats, disabled, old and young. Both indoor and outdoor cats are familiar to me as I had lived with both at some point. Currently my cats are indoor with occasional cat-walks outside on the leash or when heading out with a cat stroller. My husband has experience with farm cats as he grew up on a farm in Wisconsin. I am a 911 dispatcher and my schedule varies. I work 12 hour shifts and my husband is currently in the process to become a trucker. He will not be over the road, and comes home after his shift. I have several days off due to me working a stretch, but my cats are truly taken care of. We rent a small 2 bedroom house with access to a front and backyard. We live next to neighbors that have a beautiful male ragdoll cat that likes to visit from time to time. I love to clean and am very adament about my cats hygiene as well. Their litter boxes are cleaned up to 4 times a day, they never live in filth, they receive hair care and groom care. Their nails are trimmed regularly, and they receive wet food including dental care. I am also very concious of their safety. Basil tends to be scared of strangers at first, but we own a kitty cam, the cats have plenty of room, with access to all rooms, except basement (as it is not directly accessible through the home). Have window benches, a cat tree, and are allowed to lay wherever they want. The only boundary we have is them being on the kitchen counter.

“I really appreciate Ashley’s care for my 4 senior cats - and an 8 year old with an attitude. Not an easy task and one that requires patience and attention to detail for all of their needs. My cats immediately all warmed up to her with Ashley first visit, a sign of their comfort with her, and I appreciate the photos and updates on all of her care for them. It’s hard to leave home but this was the best experience I could have asked for. Thank you Ashley.”

“Abbey’s communication, flexibility & care were excellent. We arrived home to a well kept house and a very happy & healthy dog.

About: I never had a dog growing up! I am on my second rescue and love taking care of the little cuties! I will spoil them! I work a few hours a week at a seasonal breakfast cafe, but they are very flexible when scheduling me. Also, I am active for my age! I will only dog sit in doggy’s own home but will bring my Shih Tzu with his kennel and keep him in it, if needed.

About: Hi there! My name is Kali, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and they’ve always been a big part of my family. We also had a cat in the house, so I’m comfortable around both furry friends! Spending time with dogs is something I truly enjoy, whether it’s going for walks, playing in the yard, or just relaxing together. I’m patient, responsible, and always happy to match the energy level of your pup, whether they’re playful or more laid-back. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and I understand the different levels of care and attention each one needs. I’d love to meet your dog and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Now through the end of August, I’m local in Winona and work remotely most days. I commute to La Crosse only on Wednesdays (7:30 AM – 3:30 PM), so I’m very available in Winona the rest of the week. Starting in September, I’ll be commuting to La Crosse Monday through Friday, and will be available for pet care after work hours. I’m also available some weekends, and I’ll always keep my availability updated here so you know exactly when I’m free. While I won’t be caring for pets in my own home, I take pride in providing attentive, respectful care in your pet’s home where they’re most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, crating, or anything else they need within reason. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat your home and animals with care and respect!

“100% recommend. She went above and beyond with what I was expecting. Both of my two German pointers seemed to have a great time with her. Photos of them playing and all. Thanks again!!!”

I recently moved and my pets stayed with my parents, so my full attention can go to yours. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment whether I'm in my own home or my client’s.

I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and relaxed while their owner is away. If I'm in a client’s home, I treat it with the utmost respect—keeping everything clean and secure, and maintaining communication with updates and photos. Whether it's a drop-in visit, dog walking, or overnight stays, I prioritize the pet’s well-being, comfort, and happiness above all.

Julia H.
“I highly recommend Julia as a responsible and compassionate pet caregiver. Having grown up with dogs—including a senior pup who required regular insulin injections—Julia has firsthand experience with the commitment and care that animals need at every life stage. Her several years of experience as a veterinary technician have only deepened her skills, as she’s worked with a wide range of animals from cats and dogs to horses and even bison. Julia’s calm, attentive nature and deep love for animals make her someone you can truly trust with your pets.”
