Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Thurston Woods

About: I am a dedicated and dependable dog care provider with a lifelong love for animals, especially dogs. I have been around dogs my entire life and currently care for three of my own, giving me hands on experience with a wide range of temperaments, routines, and needs. I provide reliable dog walking and check in services, always prioritizing safety, consistency, and your pet’s comfort. I treat every dog with patience and respect, ensuring they receive attentive, high quality care while giving owners peace of mind when they’re away. I am currently working 6 days a week each day 7am-1pm, Monday through Saturday. I can be of service as early as 4am and as late as 7pm. Sundays I am usually free throughout the day! I have baby gates, crate if needed (small and big sizing), many toys and friendly dogs of my own. I am happy to walk dogs as long as 5 miles, I can also bring to the closest dog park for some doggy social time if owner is comfortable. I can watch over dog(s) at the owners home and do whatever is necessary for their specific routine. :)

About: I have watched friends and neighbor's pets for years and decided to sign up with Rover. I love all animals. I have 1 dog and 1 cat, and they are family. I will walk, love and play with all pets staying with me and follow instructions given by their owners. I can watch puppies that are really like toddlers or older wiser members of your families. I am comfortable giving medications if needed. Most will sleep on my bed and yes, they are allowed on my furniture, but they are welcome to sleep or nap wherever they would like. I want you to go on vacation knowing they are happy and having a vacation of their own. I have a morning routine which includes a long walk, depending on temperature, playing in the yard with my dog and another walk usually late afternoon. Walks include walks around my neighborhood and also at parks. While your dog is in my care, I will not be going to any dog parks with them. I will have our dogs meet prior to accepting a job. They can play in my yard and once we are both comfortable with their meeting, we can schedule a time for drop off or pick up. While in my home they will be treated with love and respect. Walks and playtime throughout the day. They are allowed to sleep or hang out wherever they would like.

About: I provide friendly, professional, and truly attentive care, noticing your dog’s needs and moods. My approach is calm, balanced, and consistent, following your routines closely so pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I treat every dog with respect, giving them confidence and happiness while you’re away. I currently offer part-time dog sitting and walking, with availability continuing to expand as my Rover schedule grows. My mornings and weekends vary week to week, but I may be able to accommodate requests on a case-by-case basis. Feel free to reach out to check availability. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of reliable, attentive care and aim to provide flexible, high quality support tailored to your dog’s needs. I provide calm, attentive care in your dog’s own home, respecting boundaries and following your instructions closely. Every dog receives consistent, thoughtful handling to feel secure and comfortable while in my care. Even dogs with minor behavioral quirks are managed safely, so owners can feel confident that their pets are well cared for, calm, and respected.

“Cynthia is doing great with my reactive dog!! Thank you.”

About: Hi there, my name is Rayanne, and I have cared for pets of my own my entire life. The last few years, several family members and friends have entrusted the care of their pets to me as well. It has been a joy and honor! I have experience caring for single as well as multiple animals at a time. At home, I have a cat and a dog, and I will give the attention to your pets that I would give my own. I look forward to meeting them and speaking with you! I’m currently working part time, and would like to spend some time during the day with your pets, especially outside! I am available to walk and check in on dogs/cats during most weekday afternoons. I enjoy taking time to get to know your animal to gain their trust. I love long walks and playing outside for dogs who need to let out some energy, as well as giving much needed attention/cuddles. I have experience helping dogs get back in kennels if they need to until you get home as well.

About: I have been passionate about animals, big and small, my entire life! I have volunteered at humane societies, fostered animals in need, cared for the pets of family members and friends, interned at AZA-accredited zoos, and worked at wildlife sanctuaries. Currently I am a full-time licensed wildlife rehabilitator caring for injured and orphaned Wisconsin wildlife with the goal of releasing them back into the wild, but I have previously worked with a variety of domestic animals both in my personal and in my professional life. I am well versed in animal behavior, body language, and positive reinforcement. I promise to treat (and spoil) your pets like they are my own! At the moment I have 3 sweet cats, a high-energy dog, a mischievous chinchilla, and a gentleman of a ball python! Please do not hesitate to reach out and get to know me more! I currently work 4 days of the week at my full time job so I am only available select days. I am eager to spend time with your pets, however, so if my schedule shows I am unavailable, please reach out anyway as I try to be as flexible as possible! It is extremely important to me to use Fear Free tactics when interacting with any animal. Gaining the trust of you and your pet are my top priority!

“Great communication, very easy to work with!”

About: I stand out as a dog sitter through a lifelong connection with dogs, developed since a young age, combined with six years of hands-on experience training dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also taken the initiative to study dog nutrition in depth, allowing me to confidently understand what dogs should and should not eat. Additionally, I have experience safely administering medications, ensuring every dog in my care stays healthy, comfortable, and well-supported. I have an open schedule as far as now, so i am available to fit into what schedule is needed from me. Pet care fits into my daily schedule!! I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each dog’s needs, including easy crating when required. I’m happy to stay full-time if needed. Whether your dog loves playtime, outdoor adventures, learning new skills, or simply relaxing and cuddling while watching shows, I adapt to their mood to ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

About: I am a former dog handler that worked at a doggy day care where I cared for multiple dogs daily, managing different temperaments and energy levels.

I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends. I offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, follow routines closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
