“She was awesome! Sent us lots of pictures of our pup and cat, kept track of when our pup went out and what she did outside, and when/what they ate. Most importantly, our pets seemed very happy in her care. Definitely would like to book with her again!!”
About: I truly can’t remember a time where I didn’t have at least one (or ten) animals in my house growing up! Including my three-legged Chihuahua, energetic Catahoula’s, and rescue Aussie mix. I have been trusted to walk, care, and spend nights with pets of family, friends, and community members. I have worked in a pet boarding facility for four years where I got to meet some of my best furry friends! I have experience with many types of animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I provide care that meets YOUR pets needs…whether it be a 4 month old puppy or 14 year old senior dog, energetic and playful or a timid couch potato, big St Bernard’s and Great Danes or Dachshunds and teacup Chihuahuas. I love all animals and can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am currently a student at UWSP where I have a pretty flexible schedule, especially on weekends. I am able to do whatever your pet needs whether it’s a quick walk while you’re away or staying the night while you’re on vacation. I am able to be with your pet almost all day, with the exception of classes. I have worked in pet boarding for 4 years and have encountered many different situations and handled each accordingly. I know basic first aid for animals and I am very comfortable giving dogs medications (even if they aren’t fond of it). During walks I am attentive to my surroundings and am able to avoid stressful situations for your fur baby.
About: With my off leash wilderness business “Dogonfun Wilderness Adventures” in Oregon I had well more than a decade of the best kind of fun!! I took 8-10 dogs out for hour long runs and watched packs over night while my happy clients enjoyed their vacations. I was known for giving free trainings to new puppy families in the quest that everyone would be successful in their early days of growth as a family leading to well behaved dogs that everyone could enjoy! I also enjoy pet photography and will provide you will Glamour shots of your furry friends while I’m with them ;) I am happy to share my knowledge and love of pups here in Wisconsin, from Shawano to Green Bay and beyond if possible, and look forward to house sitting for you. My work schedule is flexible and allows for the best care of your pets. I can stick closely to the same schedule your pets are used to. Keeping them happy when you are gone is my highest priority! Caring for your animals in your home includes walks, play time and snuggles! I am first aide and CPR trained for both canine and feline and experienced in administering medications when necessary.
About: I have had dogs my entire life, we currently have a 14 year old lab. I love to walk. I am retired and have plenty of time to spend with your dog! Available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day as needed. I have no set schedule therefor I am very flexible to work with whether it’s a walk, drop in service, daycare or boarding. I have a large yard and love to walk or play with your dog. We have a tie out in the yard for outdoor time if not out for a walk. The lake is down the hill so swimming is possible after establishing a relationship where we know your dog won’t run/swim off.
“Theresa was great. Very reliable, prompt, good communication and seems to get along well with our animals. Our dog is usually pretty anxious, but our pup seemed happier when we came home than before! She even took care our bearded dragon! She will be our go to sitter from now on.”

Ava D.
“Ava has taken care of my dogs and is an extremely responsible, loving, caring young lady. Her love for animals definitely shows. My dogs absolutely love her!”
Lenora J.
“Lenora is amazing! If you are looking for someone with lots (and lots!) of experience with dogs and someone who uses good judgement and will keep your dog safe, she is the best. When I adopted my puppy Gaby 12 years ago, she took G on trail hikes and watched her when I travelled out of town. We have kept in touch since and she continues to love on my pup. I can't recommend her highly enough!”
Michelle G.
“Michelle takes care of your pets as if they were her own. She helped me with my puppy when I work long hours at the hospital. She took her for walks, helped with potty training, and gave Kai lots of love. Would recommend!”
