About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“Catherine is amazing!! My dog Riley is a senior dog that I just adopted a year ago. I was so worried about leaving her for a weekend while I went out of town. Riley is so attached to me and never leaves my side. My fears subsided immediately when I met Catherine and her furry crew. I could really tell that she loves and cares for her dogs and the dogs she cares for as if they are family. Catherine kept me updated with videos, photos and updates about how Riley was doing the entire time. She gave Riley all of the love and reassurance that she needed. Her tail was wagging the whole time. ❤️”
“Provided great updates and was very careful to provide care in accordance with our dogs age and energy needs. Dogs seemed very happy hanging out together and seemed very comfortable.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly trust me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies who need patience and training reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require a gentler approach and extra attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work full time. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 2:30pm. During stays, pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and consistency in their routine. I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication times, and specific care instructions to keep your pet comfortable. I have an unfenced yard and one friendly, well-socialized dog who can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around others. I always prioritize slow introductions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. If needed, I can easily crate your dog and provide separate spaces for rest and downtime. In your home, I respect your space and follow all care instructions carefully. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels at home.

“Barbara is amazing with animals! My family and I went on a 10 day vacation & I was nervous about leaving my two cats for the first time. Barbara made it so much easier. She has a huge love for animals and I received a handful of videos and updates daily!! I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out for help again 💕”
“I'm so glad I found Annette! It was my first time leaving my kitty alone at home and I was nervous especially since the little guy had an ear infection but she went above and beyond to take care of him and also administer his ear drops. She is very down to earth & easy to talk to and I felt comfortable working with her. Finding someone you trust to take care of your fur kiddo is such a personal & delicate thing and she's very thoughtful- I would definitely go back to her next time!”

About: I have been taking care and watching over cats for the last couple of year. I have two younger cats. I feed them morning and nights, clean their litter boxes and play thoughtout the day with then. I am familiar with giving medication to them.
About: Hi there, I’m Sarah! Thank you for stopping by my profile! I’m a proud U.S. Navy veteran who separated from the military in 2017. Growing up in a military family, I had the opportunity to live in 25 different states and 6 countries, which gave me a deep appreciation for people, cultures, and the incredible diversity of animals around the world. Those experiences helped shape my adaptable, compassionate personality and my love for caring for both people and animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for everything from dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, chickens, and goats to helping family members care for horses, cows, and other farm animals. Whether your pet has paws, feathers, or scales, I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive care tailored to their individual personality and needs. I currently have an older service dog named Basil and a senior cat named Dhara, so I understand firsthand how important it is to provide gentle care, consistency, and a calm environment—especially for older pets. If your pet stays with me, they’ll be welcomed into a peaceful home where they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and supervision. One of the experiences I’m most proud of was spending two years training my service dog, Basil, through the ARF Pets for Vets program in Walnut Creek, California. That experience taught me a tremendous amount about canine behavior, positive reinforcement, communication, and building trust. It also strengthened my belief that every animal communicates in their own unique way, and I take the time to understand their body language so they feel safe, respected, and comfortable. Outside of pet care, I’m a freelance product designer and entrepreneur who enjoys creating new products, designing 3D models, and bringing ideas to life. I also love cooking, baking, traveling, exploring new places, and discovering local restaurants—I’m even an Elite Yelp reviewer, so you could say I enjoy finding the best hidden gems wherever I go! When caring for your pet, my goal is to make them feel like they’re part of the family. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind, so I strive to provide the same level of care, patience, and affection that I’d want for my own animals. What you can expect from me: • Personalized care based on your pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. • Experience caring for a wide variety of companion and farm animals. • Daily photo, video, and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing. • A meet-and-greet before booking to make sure we’re a great fit. • Basic training guidance and positive reinforcement tips when appropriate. • A clean, calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet’s health, comfort, and happiness always come first. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I truly appreciate that trust. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members and providing them with the same love and care I’d give my own.
About: I love caring for animals, and I approach every pet as if they were my own. I have one senior American Foxhound who is my whole world. I ensure a nurturing environment where your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well-cared for. I am very conscious of the care required for dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. Growing up, my family had quite the hobby farm. I have experience caring for chickens, goats, cats, big dogs, small dogs, reptiles, and fish. There are no off-limit pets for me! I also have experience as a nanny caring for children, homes, and pets. I am a full-time Rover service provider. This is my only job, so I have tons of flexibility! I would love to have a repeat client. For check-ins and dog walking services, I prioritize creating a comfortable and secure environment for pets. During check-ins, I ensure timely visits, providing food, water, and any necessary medications. Additionally, dog walking sessions focus on exercise and mental stimulation, tailoring each walk to the pet's energy level and preferences. Consistent communication with clients, keeping them informed and reassured about their pets' well-being. I will honor all house rules and respect your belongings.
About: I have many years of experience caring and loving for animals. I have also worked for a couple of Veterinary clinics and have attended a year of school for Veterinary medicine. I am currently a stay at home mom and have a couple of fur babies of my own who get along great with everyone! My Bernese Mountain dog is 7 years and one of the biggest lap dogs you will meet. My kids are 3 and 1 and are taking after my animal loving ways. They love to help care for our animals and take care of our daily chores.

About: A fun fact about me is that I’ve had 5 doberman pinchers in my life, I’m great with big and small dogs and I was always the person my neighbors would call when they needed someone to check in on their pets. Having 5 doberman I have learned helpful ways to train and take care of pets, i believe our pets should be treated like humans. Meaning their food should be nutritionally safe and they should be given the right amount of exercise depending on the breed. Im a college student with a part time job and lots of free time between classes and during the evenings. This is my first year living away from my family, including my dog named Ellie. So I would love to be able to help someone with their pet(s) while I am away from mine! My parents have a 3 year old doberman pincher at home, while they leave early in the mornings for work I am the one responsible for taking care of our furry family member. In the morning i start by making sure her collar is on and then taking her outside, once I’ve seen her go potty it’s time for breakfast. After she eats we play frisbee (her favorite) until she’s tired and ready to go inside. I usually go to work or school by 12:30 so before I leave I make sure she’s gone outside again and had her lunch. I always feel bad for leaving her alone so I turn on a carton for her while everyone is gone. On the days I am home we always go for a walk around the block to burn some of that energy.

“Jennifer is great! She has watched our dog on several occasions- several last minute- which has been so nice to have a reliable dog sitter! She keeps us updated with photos. She does a great job and Stevie enjoys his time there!”
About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“Catherine is amazing!! My dog Riley is a senior dog that I just adopted a year ago. I was so worried about leaving her for a weekend while I went out of town. Riley is so attached to me and never leaves my side. My fears subsided immediately when I met Catherine and her furry crew. I could really tell that she loves and cares for her dogs and the dogs she cares for as if they are family. Catherine kept me updated with videos, photos and updates about how Riley was doing the entire time. She gave Riley all of the love and reassurance that she needed. Her tail was wagging the whole time. ❤️”
“Provided great updates and was very careful to provide care in accordance with our dogs age and energy needs. Dogs seemed very happy hanging out together and seemed very comfortable.”
About: Hello! My name is Elicia and I have been around animals my entire life. I currently have 3 dogs (4 including my husband 😂) Doug, Cooper and Nala. I love to spend time with animals, and know the struggle of finding someone trust worthy to take care of your kids! I have great references, and am pretty flexible when it comes to the needs and care of you and your pets. I promise to love on them and treat them as if they were my own, no matter how big or how small! I am also open to discussing payment options as well - I am here to work with you and your babies! Looking forward to chatting with you! I have a full time job, 7a-4p Monday - Friday in Wausau. I have the option to work from home 1 day a week if needed, but cannot work from home on Mondays or Fridays. If you’re located close enough to my employer I can let your pets out at lunch! I currently have no restrictions when it comes to caring for pets. I have cared for puppies all the way to elderly dogs. I have no allergies, so nothing to worry about there! I can take them for walks, to the dog park, and am willing to do everything I can to keep them on their schedule and stress free!
About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was little, and I also have 6 years of experience working in doggy daycare and boarding services. To go with that I am a dog groomer and have managed the buisness I work for! I’m currently in a part time job at a doggy daycare, boarding and grooming center! I am available most days after school, and most weekends! I am very flexible to work with! I have a big yard that is great for dogs to have room to run around in! I have a very dog friendly home and I love all dogs and taking care of them!
“Naomi M. and her family are a wonderful pet sitter for my kitty Taz. I had never had a pet sitter for him before and she worked with me as my schedule changed multiple times and her family has bonded with them so well. I would recommend Naomi for all my pet sitting needs. Laurie L M.”
