Cat Sitting in Truax

“Hailee dropped in on our cat while we were out of town to refill food and scoop the litter box. She responded quickly to all messages and completed everything as asked! We would definitely seek her help again.”

Bridget M.

“My cats adored her! They are usually timid around new people, but my cats could tell she had good energy and came to enjoy her company and let her give them all the attention! My cat threw up and she went above and beyond and cleaned it up for me! Seriously will hire again and I definitely recommend her services!”

About: Hi, I’m Nikki—lifelong animal lover, dog mom, and the human behind Fetching Feldy’s Handmade Pet Boutique. Whether your dog thrives on sniff walks, enrichment games, trail time, or just a consistent routine, I’ll tailor each visit to what keeps them happiest. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, snakes, and even owned a bearded dragon. Whether it’s fur, feathers, or scales, I focus on building trust and providing care that fits your pet’s personality and needs. I’m experienced with oral medications (pill or syringe), training reinforcement, and keeping pets safe, calm, and enriched while you’re away. My dog, Tillie, is proof that patience and consistency work—she’s been complimented as “the best behaved dog I’ve ever seen,” and I trained her from puppyhood. When I wanted to take an advanced-level class that usually required multiple prerequisite courses, I shared her skills with the trainer and they let us in. She did great! Training and enrichment are part of our everyday life—on and off the trail. If you're looking for someone who truly gets animals, respects their needs, and cares for them like family, I’d love to connect. I have the unique advantage of creating my own schedule, as I am the owner and creator of Fetching Feldy's Pet Boutique. This flexibility is incredibly beneficial, as it allows me to prioritize and seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Unlike a rigid 9-to-5 job, my hours are designed around my commitments, meaning I can easily: -Schedule visits precisely: I can block out specific times for walks, drop-ins, or house-sitting without conflict, ensuring punctuality and consistent care for your pet. -Be responsive: My flexible hours mean I'm often available to respond quickly to booking requests, last-minute needs, or simply check in with you during the day. -Focus entirely on your pet: When I'm caring for your pet, they have my full attention. My boutique work can be adapted around their needs, not the other way around. My own dog, Tillie, is an integral part of my life, so I deeply understand the importance of routine, exercise, and companionship for pets. Crafting bandanas for Fetching Feldy's often happens around Tillie's walks and playtimes, and extending that same dedicated, pet-centric care to others feels like a natural and fulfilling part of my day. Ultimately, my business structure is built on flexibility and a love for pets, making me a reliable and dedicated choice for your pet care needs. My approach to pet care, regardless of the service, is rooted in safety, communication, and a genuine love for animals. Every pet is unique, and my priority is always to provide personalized care that mirrors their own home routine, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and loved in your absence. 1. For all services, you can expect: -Safety First: I prioritize your pet's well-being above all else, ensuring a secure environment and adhering strictly to your instructions. -Clear Communication: Regular updates, photos, and quick responses to any questions are a given. You'll always know how your furry family member is doing. -Respect for Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, maintaining cleanliness and privacy as if it were my own. 2. House-Sitting (Caring for Pets & Home in Your Absence): When I'm house-sitting, I become a responsible and caring temporary guardian for both your pets and your home. My goal is to maintain your pets' routine as seamlessly as possible, minimizing their stress and providing them with constant companionship and care. -Dedicated Presence: I stay overnight in your home, providing around-the-clock comfort and security for your pets. They won't feel lonely or anxious. -Routine Adherence: I meticulously follow your detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medication administration, exercise routines, playtimes, and bedtimes. Consistency is key for a happy pet. -Home & Pet Security: Beyond pet care, I ensure your home remains secure, bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, and maintaining a lived-in appearance. -Comfort & Play: We'll enjoy plenty of cuddles, playtime, and enrichment tailored to your pet's needs and preferences. -Regular Updates: You'll receive daily updates with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pets are thriving. 3. Drop-In Visits (Brief, Focused Care in Your Home): Drop-in visits are perfect for providing essential care, comfort, and potty breaks when you're away for shorter periods. My visits are thorough and designed to ensure your pet's immediate needs are met. -Timely & Reliable: I arrive promptly at our scheduled times to maintain your pet's routine. -Basic Needs & Beyond: Each visit includes fresh food and water, dedicated potty breaks, and a thorough check of their environment. -Enrichment & Play: Depending on the visit length, we'll include playtime, cuddles, or mental stimulation to keep your pet happy and engaged. -Home Check: I'll also do a quick check of your home to ensure everything is secure and clean up any pet-related messes. -Visit Summaries: After each visit, you'll receive a detailed report and photos, outlining what we did, how your pet ate, and their bathroom activity. 4. Dog Walking (Exercise & Fresh Air): Dog walks are more than just potty breaks – they're opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, and enjoyment of the outdoors. I focus on making each walk safe, fun, and tailored to your dog's energy level. -Safe & Controlled Walks: I use secure leashes and harnesses, remain attentive to surroundings (weather, other dogs, people), and practice positive reinforcement. -Tailored Exercise: Whether your dog needs a brisk power walk, a leisurely stroll, or time for sniffing and exploring, I adapt the walk to their individual needs and your preferences. -Hydration & Relief: Potty breaks are always a priority, and I ensure your dog has access to water during and after the walk, especially on warmer days. I always pick up after your dog. -Behavioral Awareness: I pay close attention to your dog's cues and behavior, ensuring a positive and stress-free experience. -Walk Updates: You'll receive a summary of our walk, including distance covered, potty breaks, and any notable observations or fun moments. By choosing me, you're choosing a dedicated and responsible pet care provider who genuinely cares for your beloved companions and respects your home. I look forward to meeting you and your pet family!

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I'm currently working a full time job, however I still have plenty of time to watch your fur babies!! If anything changes I will let you all know ASAP!! I have two very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if needed, or I can separate my dogs from your dogs if needed. I also have toys for them to play with so they won't get bored.

About: I bring a calm, friendly presence that helps pets feel safe and relaxed while their people are away. I’ve grown up with animals and currently care for a few clients’ pets in Eau Claire — including a 3-week stay with multiple pets. I know how important routines are, and I pride myself on clear communication, clean homes, and happy tails. Whether it’s a quick walk or a full house sit, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter and treat your pets like my own. I’m flexible, detail-oriented, and truly love getting to know each animal’s personality. My goal is always to create a stress-free experience — for both you and your furry family. Pet care can fit seamlessly into my routine. I currently bartend and this allows for more flexibility and available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, or house sitting throughout the week — your pet’s needs come first in my day! I have no pets at my home so my casa is your pets casa with no interference. At my 8 plex building there is a much area to run around if they can be off leash otherwise the area is great to walk for potty breaks at anytime. I live in a safe, quiet and less trafficked area which will be great for walks!

“Hannah house sat for us while we were on vacation. She took great care of our two kitties, and she sent us updates and photos while we were away. Hannah was great with timely communication, keeping us updated each day regarding her class/work schedule and when she would be at the house. I would highly recommend Hannah for any house sitting or drop-in visits.”
