“Our pup is turning 3 in June and we had never left her with anyone. We found Kessia and felt an instant connection. She confidently, but gently assured our pup and us that there was nothing to worry about, and her two pups instantly welcomed ours in playful banter. We have no concerns in leaving our pup with Kessia.”
“Madeline was great at communicating and keeping me updated about Ponyo. She sent lots of photos and videos. It looks like Ponyo had a great time! I’m already scheduling my next sitting sesh with Madeline again.”
“Elizabeth welcome our new puppy with open arms. She gave us updates every day and some very cute pictures. We felt very at peace having her take care of newly added member of our family”
“Highly recommend. Very responsive throughout booking process and with updates during our pets stay. Diego came home happy and exhausted from all the fun he had. Would definitely book with Alex again”
“Great dawg sitter … had to find a place with a short notice and he was flexible and accessible… nice house with fenced in yard so I felt secure as my boys are little … coco and skully were very relaxed when I got them home so I knew they were comfortable in Joe’s setting … highly recommended… and Joe is a very very nice fellow …”
“Jacob took superb care of my dog during my business trip. I had full confidence Odie was in excellent hands. We returned to find him very happy. I highly recommend Jacob's services.”
“First time using this service and was very pleased. Jennifer R. was great! I have a 10 yr old rescue dog and only had her for little over 1 year so I wasn't sure how she would be with other dogs. Needed a sitter for an overnight and didn't know what I should do. I know Bagels doesn't like to be kenneled. So I found Jennifer on Rover and was the best thing I did. She made me feel better about my choice when I received a text message letting me know my dog was doing well in her care. That was nice to hear and made my day! Definitely will use Jennifer again for watching Bagels! Thank you Jennifer for taking great care of Bagels!”
“Dessirae is the best! This was our dogs' first stay with her, and it was great! The dogs loved her and her home. The dogs were not entirely sure that they wanted to return home with me, when I showed up to retrieve them today. I only hope that they were well behaved, as we hope that they will have future stays with her.”
“This was our Sophie’s first overnight stay at a boarding home (Sophie is 9 months old). I love that she was exposed to a farm home setting with other dogs, cats, cows, and a family that included kids for her to play with. Socialization was important to us, and I am happy to say that Sophie came home tired and happy, and I am sure will be ready to visit Katie and her family again in the near future. Thank you, Katie, for making this a positive experience for our pup.”
“Heidi took such good care of my dog for a long weekend. She got plenty of exercise and play time I got updates every day which I loved. Definitely will be having Heidi watch my dog again.”
“Wonderful experience! Our babies have never stayed with anyone other than family so we were a little apprehensive. But Michelle was awesome! She was very good about sending pics and videos throughout the stay. Will definitely try to use her services again!”
“Incredibly positive experience! Abby and her family provided wonderful care for our Goose while we were away for a quick trip to the cities. Her genuine love for dogs was evident, and she went above and beyond to ensure our Goose's comfort and happiness, and sent us regular updates and photos to reassure us of that. I returned to a happy and well-cared-for pup, and would highly recommend her as a host for your dog! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Excellent care of our pups. Lovely family, nice fenced in yard. Amanda managed the pups very well, and that included medication for one of the dogs and a puppy. She was excellent!”
“Alia was amazing with Jean Pierre. She was super attentive and sent pictures fingiam getting along with the other pups. She even helped me find my way home from Wisconsin! Highly recommend.”
“Alisha and Nick were very nice and flexible the while time. They sent me pictures of my dog and updates about what they were up to the whole time. I definitely recommend them!”
About: I have worked for roughly two years dog sitting for friends and family. Typically these have been in my own home - occasionally overnight. I have a fenced in back yard for my 3 dogs & 2 cats so I have experience with both :) I have complete availability currently, so my dog at home gets quite a lot of walks and park time. If possible, i also try to socialize him with people each day. Typically I take my dog to the dog park in the evening with a long walk in the morning. This works best for my dogs energy levels, but each dog is different. I am also trying to socialize my dog in public as he is a bit scared of humans so we try to hit some breweries here and there.
“Kristy has been an amazing host for our dog ! She gave us daily feedbacks and videos from our dog. She has a backyard and managed the potty times according to the intense heat we had last week and it was very appreciated to have someone care about the little details.”
“Our dog was well loved and well taken care of! She was treated like one of the family and I received plenty of updates. Would definitely recommend and will be using Destiiny again in the near future!”

“Bonnie is great! She took good care of my cats while I was out of town and took extra steps to bring in packages and clean up an accident one of the cats had in the living room. Will absolutely book with her again!”
“Cece is amazing! She is prompt. She checked in every day at exactly the time she said she would be there. One day she was delayed and was quick to communicate. She sent pictures every day. Her love and kindness really made our cats feel at comfortable. We are going out of town again in a few weeks and I’ve already booked her to watch over our three cats again. Cece Is absolutely amazing! Highly, highly recommend!”
“This is our third time booking Jess to check in on our 2 cats while we are away from home, and we recommend her! She is friendly and communicative and great to work with. Thanks, Jess!”
“Jade was great about letting me know when she was coming over based on her work schedule, which we had discussed when I was making the decision to have her take care of my cats. She provided pictures and was excellent at letting me know when she was able to come over as well as when she visited. As this trip was over Memorial Day weekend, I truly appreciated her willingness to work with my requests. I will plan on having Jade take care of my cats again when we travel!”
About: I have had cats basically my whole life and I currently have a dog at my parents house. I have dog sat a few times for my neighbors dog. I am currently looking to drop in on cats and/ or dogs and walk dogs in the late afternoon. I ask for a five day notice but depending on my schedule I might be able to make some exceptions here and there! I treat all pets like they are my own. I care about the safety and living of all animals. I am patient and caring and I put those skills into my work with animals.
About: provide loving, experienced care for your dog, drawing from a lifetime of owning pets and growing up with a mom who’s a professional dog groomer. Whether it’s playful puppies or gentle senior dogs, your pet will feel right at home with me. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, as I work part-time at night, allowing me to dedicate my daytime hours to caring for your pets. Balancing school and family life has taught me exceptional time management, ensuring your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes to ensure your pets remain comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care needs, to give your pets the best experience possible.
About: I have owned and taken care of cats as a child, and now as an adult I own two kittens in training. I have experience administering medications safely and reliably, giving you peace of mind if your pet has special medical needs. I also take pride in maintaining a clean and hygienic environment, from meticulously deep-cleaning litter boxes to tidying up after your furry friends. My goal is to ensure your pets feel loved and your home stays spotless, so you can return to happy pets and a stress-free home.
About: For the last 21 years our home has collected experience with animals with the focus on safety and specialty care. I worked as a vet tech the first half of my careers life. The last 10 years or so I've worked lightly as a tech but also as a foster coordinator with a major rescue. I help teach new fosters how to safely manage, handle and even train dogs new to a home and make sure they know ways to keep there dog safe. Our home specializes in those that need extra understanding, health care or time to settle in. We are not fostering at the moment so we only have our resident dogs in home. Dogs are our homes life. We already work around dog care schedules and appropriate trips outside all the time. I'm home all week and provide most mid-day walks and play time. Safety is a big factor in our home. We have years of learning and perfecting dog introductions when boarding and our dogs are very used to new guests coming in and out. When caring for dogs in my own yard but also when providing care at the owners home I always use safe leash handling skills. We dont have a fence so being aware of open doors and guests coming or going is something our whole home is always mentally aware of and our whole focus is keeping our guests safe.
“Morgan was great! My fiancé and I were out of town for Christmas and just needed someone to stop by and feed Crispy and make sure he was okay, she did just that. No complaints what so ever she made sure he would be okay until we got home the next day. We will definitely rebook in the future!”
About: Dogs, cats and birds have always been a part of my life. As a child, we even had a pet crow named Butch! I work from home so your fur or feather baby won’t be left alone. My last two dogs passed away after months of battling cancer. My siberian husky had nasal cancer and my papillion had lymphoma. I have experience providing palliative care for dogs that are not feeling well and probably need extra love and attention. Currently, my resident dog is a foster failure named Peppy. Occasionally, I will have a foster dog in addition to my resident dog. I would disclose that information before booking. I currently work from home and my schedule is very flexible. After work, I walk my dog either around the neighborhood or we go to Red Cedar trail or to a park in town. I can easily crate your dog if you request it but it’s ok if he/she sleeps wherever. My dog freaks out in a crate (he was a breeder release) so he sleeps wherever he chooses. He is very gentle and has no teeth so I will not care for any aggressive dog.
About: I have loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I’ve always had a dog since i was little and i always adored them. I have worked with dogs for about a year now at Camp Bow Wow, where we supervised play, grooming, and gave breakfast and dinner. I’ve had experience with almost every kind of dog you can think of, and I’m good in any kind of situation. I am only working mornings and am completely free in my late afternoon/ evenings. I would love to spend my free time with some furry friends i’m able to come to you! i’m at college so i do not have my dog at school with me! But i Typically bring my dog for a walk everyday! He is super active so i try to get him outdoors and get some energy out!
About: Ive had a little more then 3 years pet experience taking care of all ages and sizes of dog and cats. Doing everything from walks, runs and drop ins to staying over night and taking care of the house and land as well. I’m current an active student at UW stout with an open schedule open almost all day to take care of the needs of pets. Im an advocate for running and lifting and love to go on runs with dogs and train hunting dogs. I have a very active dog as is so I’m constantly watching or playing with him. I tend to make sure all small items are picked up, all chemicals are put away and am always on watch. I’m comfortable with both crate training and roaming animals.
“Alex was great! He handled our high energy dog very well. Millie was a happy girl when we got home! He followed our instructions and I felt very comfortable that Millie would be well taken care of on the drop in visit. Would definitely recommend Alex!”
About: I’ve lived with a dog my whole life I had 2 dogs for 7 years now just one sadly. I don’t mind going on long walks even runs with dogs as well. I don’t have school Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays. So those days I can work whenever. Tuesday Thursdays I’m free anytime after 4. So I have a pretty open schedule. My first priority will always be your pet. Giving it the upmost respect and care it needs. Making sure it’s happy, healthy, and safe whenever I’m with it.
About: I have experience growing up with labs and I have experience with small dogs as well. My whole life I’ve had dogs and enjoy being around them. I am currently going to graduate school to become a school psychologist in Menominee but I am willing to travel to other cities in the area as I have weekends and weekday flexibility I can provide care in the dogs home by following the instructions the owners set out and allow the dog to feel safe while in their own home

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I have a cat and have had several different dogs. I even fostered dogs for a summer. I'm now divorced and have my kids half the time. My work is flexible and I can add in dog care as needed throughout the day. I homeschool my boys when I have them and work delivery jobs when I don't. My work is very flexible so I can make time for per care any time. I live in town with a small yard. It works best to come to your home as it's most familiar for the animal. My home is a good size but has close neighbors. You can find my personal pet sitting page called Jessica's Pet Sitting on Facebook.
“Our first day of daycare with Amanda and her family was excellent. Amanda's communication before and during my dog Zero's visit was friendly, timely, and professional. Her family played and snuggled with Zero and even took him on a bonus walk! He came home tuckered out and happy. We look forward to Zero's next visit!”
“Holly seemed to have lots of fun with the other dogs/kitten. She loves to be outside so I'm so glad Maddy takes her on field trips in the country. It was her first day so it took alot to get used to things. Maddy handled well and I had no worries since Maddy checked in during the day.”
“Molly was great both with booking and during Kona’s stay. She responded very quickly and sent updates throughout the day. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Jacob looked after my 1 year old husky for the day and there were no issues! He took him for a walk as well which was appreciated. Definitely will trust Jacob for sitting or boarding again.”
“Our puppy is always so excited to see Jessica! Jessica has been watching our puppy for full days. She is very diligent about sending us updates throughout the day, which we very much appreciate.”
“This was my first time having to get my boys a sitter, but I was really glad to have found Michelle! They were immediately comfortable upon arrival and pick up and drop off were very easy. It was such wonderful being able to not have to stress about they’re comfort and safety while I was away. Thank you Michelle!”
About: Hi there! I’m Destiny & have owned an array of furry friends over the years. I have never NOT had a pup and have owned many different breeds. Currently I own cattle dogs- an Aussie named Marley and Heeler/Collie mix named Sadie. They are 4, I trained them myself & they are extremely well behaved and socialized. I offer boarding, day care, dog walking, and can bathe your pup before returning them home to you. I can also pick up and drop off when needed. I can also house sit and pup sit if that is your need/comfortability as well. I am up for & encourage meet & greets before bookings if you would like to meet myself, the pups and/or see the house and our setup before hand! I work during the normal school year as a nursing instructor. I am off during the summer and am home FULL TIME to dedicate ALL of my time & attention to the fur babies! I promise your baby will be tuckered out, loved on and well fed (to your instructions of course!) Boarding at my home: safety is my top priority with animal to animal interaction and human to animal interaction. If pups need more alone time/privacy, they can be housed separately from my dogs at all times as we have multiple access points from our home to our fenced in yard and gate sectioning in our house. I do walks daily with them and am outside with them as well for the majority of the day. Our fenced in yard has a dog pool and I have BUCKETS of toys for them to play with! If your pup leans toward the spicier side & is more protective when it comes to their toys, food, or water please let me know and separation accommodations can be made, no problem. All breeds are different and each pup is different. I can also give medications topically, orally, injections etc. I can provide hourly updates through text, video call, phone calls, whatever you would like! At minimum I send a daily update. In your home: as a nurse, safety is always my top priority. I am also extremely clean and organized. I can maintain your daily routine with your pup so they don’t miss much while you are away. Again, meet and greets I encourage so you and especially your pup are comfortable meeting me and being in your home. I’ll be their make-shift auntie while you are away! Whatever update/care you want them to have, you got it- even FaceTime dates so you don’t have to miss them much.
“Hadyn was wonderful! She watched our Ruby on a last minute notice and sent us regular updates. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future! Thank you again Hadyn!”
About: Hey there! I am an animal lover to the core. Let me be your pet's new best friend while you are away! I recently moved back to the Midwest to be closer to family, about two years ago. I was traveling constantly for work, but am now full time work from home. When I lived in another state for work, I did pet care as a part time job with private clients weekly. I grew to absolutely love it and would love to get established back in Wisconsin. I grew up with dogs, cats, and cows my entire life - being raised on a farm. I am the type of person who can’t stop without petting a dog whenever I see one! Providing companionship to your pet is my favorite thing to do. We can go on walks, eat food, and watch the latest Hulu show together! Your fur baby is welcome to sleep with me, on the floor, or in any bed or crate you bring. My two rescue cats absolutely LOVE other animals, so there is no worry there. They are so curious and eventually become besties! Since I am work from home full time now, so I am extremely flexible and they will have constant attention. I do live in an apartment, BUT, I am right next to the walking trail in River Prairie (the loop). I would be more than happy to go on as many walks as needed, and enjoy some sunshine with your fur baby! So do not worry, they can be outside as much or little as you’d like. I am open to care of all animals, all sizes, and all ages. If wanted, I visit my family farm quite often where we have extensive yard and land to run on. It is 100% an option for me to take your pet there if you want them to have some extra smells, especially if they stay long term with me. I’m extremely flexible and want you to not have to worry! While I traveled full time for work in the past, constant updates on my animals back home was crucial to me. I will provide as much or little communication you’d like. I’m here to meet you and your pet where you’d like and keep being away from them stress free. I promise they are in such caring hands! I work from home most days and go on daily walks myself! I would love to have a companion along with me to help make my place less lonely! During the weekends I can give even extra attention! I have access to the loop walk near River Prairie where i can take your pet for a potty break or for a walk! Depending how far they like to go - I can do the full three miles with them, or cut it shorter! I will be here with them to provide food, water, and care. Your pet will be my number 1 priority while I am with them!

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits and fish over the years. Personally, I’ve owned dogs, cats, and rabbits myself. Most notably I’ve cared for small breed dogs but I have plenty of experience with large breeds. Currently I’m waiting on starting my new job so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Though I prefer overnighting or afternoon/evening care, I can do days as well. I can not care for pets in my own home. I live in an apartment and have little room for a pet to move around.

About: Did I catch your attention? I hope so! I really love taking care of pets. Animals are naturally attracted to me; they love me; I'm like "The Animal Whisperer." At least that's what the pets tell me. :) I hope I made you smile, because I've taken care of all kinds of pets my entire life. 🐶 💞 🏠 I know what it's like to have to leave your pet in the care of another person, you can rest assured that they are well cared for with me. I treat my own puppy, Gemma, just like she is one of my kids, just like family and I will show your pet the same affection. PS - I have lived in Chippewa for 2 years and have recently activated my services. I may not have a lot of reviews but they are all legitimate and I am verifiably who I say I am. A very loving, caring, and honest person and pet lover and will treat your furry family member as my own. I just recently recieved my Health Coach certification and CPR/First Aide. Living a healthy lifestyle is important to me, if you have any special healthy lifestyle requests for your fur buddy/buddies, I would be most happy to oblige. :) Attention First Time Customers# I will give you 50% off for your first service and for each new recommendation. I am very flexible. I have all kinds of time to play and give extra care and love to your pet. I'm open to pet sitting over night, drop-in visits, walks, baths, and more. My prices are very affordable, infact, compared to most I give the best rate and my petcare is A-1 Spectacular. 🤗 I am passionate about caring for animals and I absolutely love to help people in anyway I can. I love taking fur buddies for nature walks. I am very flexible and willing to pet sit during day-time hours or overnight. I am also very respectful to abide by any rules or lifestyle choices an owner has for their pet. I am always prompt, however, I did have to cancel one time due to an emergency. Otherwise, I will answer promptly, I am kind, hospitable, and a joy to be around.
“Korah was flexible with our quick changes due to family schedules and we were so grateful to know our Beau was taken care of. We appreciated the pictures and the timely responses. We’d use Korah again and again!”
About: Hello, I have worked with dogs and cats and farm animals for may years! I am in my 2nd year of getting my Veterinary Technician degree. I love all animals and am excited too meet yours!🩷 I have a pretty flexible schedule and am willing to accommodate! So just let me know what you need and we can figure something out! I hope to make the pet feel safe and loved at all times. So establishing trust is my first step. I then want to make them comfortable and keep them engaged in activities. And of course make sure they have fun!
About: i’ve always had such a soft spot in my heart for animals, even scaly friends too! I myself have had animals ranging from cats and dogs, to snakes to fish and rats.. and as you can imagine, they all require some very different needs! i ALWAYS make it my goal to care for each individual animal the best i can, after all they deserve it! I’d love to make taking care of your furry friends my main priority! I have open availability during the week and will be home all day with them, wether it’s your home or mine (: I do have 2 dogs of my own, so unfortunately i do not have availability for overnight stays. I always make it my biggest goal to let animals know how loved they are! I am willing to accommodate to you and your pets needs to ensure the safety of me, you, and your pet! My 2 dogs have me wrapped around their pinkies (toes? paws? 🤷🏻♀️) and i’d do anything to make sure they’re happy. I treat every dog in my care like my very own. I understand leaving your dog in the care of somebody else can be nerve-racking, especially if it’s in somebody else’s home. You worry about wether or not your sitter is going to leave them alone during the day, or if your sitter lives on a busy street, or if there’s a chance your dog gets loose.. i understand all of these! A home visit is a must and i’d be happy to show you where your furry friend will be staying, and what a typical day looks like!
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: Most of my pet care experience comes from pet sitting dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I also have personal experience due to living with 3 dogs of my own, and a cat. I have experience with senior dogs that have difficulty moving and are on a specific diet. I currently work part-time and as a student! Due to this, my schedule is incredibly flexible and open! Most weekday evenings, weekends, I am available! I know the importance of routine, safety, and trust when it comes to our pets. This is why I make sure to follow your guidelines to the T so that your pet is as comfortable as possible.
About: My mom had rescue dogs and cats my entire childhood, and I always helped care for them as her oldest daughter. My mom adopted dogs big and small - as big as a golden retriever, and as little as a chihuahua, and often cared for multiple cats at a time. I grew up in California, where my family pets live with my parents - three dogs and two cats. My cat Momo moved to Eau Claire with me. My parents are planning to retire here, which will be a big move, especially with so many animals, so when the time comes, I’ll be helping move their pets. After living in Eau Claire for a month or so, I house and pet sat for my cousin while she was working on a project out of town for a few months. I bonded with her German Shepherd, Lobo, through long walks and runs, and fell in love with her tiny cat Duchess. Later that winter, while I was still doing the long-term pet sit for my cousin, one of her friend’s rescued a cat who had been abandoned. Due to her living situation, she couldn’t take it in immediately, so Lobo and Duchess had Zia as a guest living with us for a month or so. Beyond helping out my family, I have friends whose animals I help care for on occasion too. One friend reaches out when she needs to go out of town, and I will do check ups or come stay with her needy and sweet cat-named-Kitty. Another friend and I meet up to walk downtown with her cutie little dog Lotta. I record all my walks and runs on Strava, and enjoy posting photos and videos of my furry companions, so if I walk with your pup, I would be happy to share photos if you ask! Last summer, I looked after my co-worker’s chickens and garden for a 3-day weekend, so I’m open to learning how to care for other pets beyond cats and dogs too! I work part-time at the flower shop and my schedule varies week to week based on their need, but I have lots of free time between weekdays and the weekend - I always have a free Sunday. I can easily arrange my schedule to allow for plenty of time between walks, play time, or check ups with animals. I will be brand new to Rover and open to meeting pets’ needs and routines as their human typically would! Right now, beyond my cat Momo, the only other animals I care for are my cousin’s dog and cat when she’s traveling and needs me to fill in, and I care for them as she would - from feeding routines to play time, walks, and cleaning.
About: They say to do what you love and make a career out of it. I’m just grateful my career gets to be with dogs. I currently work at a doggy daycare/boarding facility in the area, so I am certified with dog and cat behaviors and have seen the ups and downs of our fur babies, and I am still standing here happy to tell you all about their stay/session. I have also grown up with working farm dogs and have gone on to own a Great Pyrenees who isn’t quite a working dog but sure does “work” like one. Thank you for reading through my short history and I am super excited to update this with my accomplishments to come! Pet care for me starts at dawn lol My pups come for cuddles and a potty break first sight of my eyes opening. Most of the time this does align with my schedule in the 6 am timeframe. Our family does always thankfully have one person home at all times, so while kennels are still utilized in our home for various situations, your pups can expect to stay in a home environment while here :) While I personally do not have a yard, my family does own large pasture fields and hills that we will typically walk daily. These colder seasons do affect how often we go out due to the snow and unplowed hills. However in that safe weather we make it a main priority to keep active with our pups to maintain a healthy and long life for them. Safety is priority number one. Thankfully my family is pretty much set up for success here. We are knowledgeable for food, behavior, and play safety with dogs and cats. Signs and symptoms of common issues with dogs and cats, based off personal experiences, and possible fears of what ifs, urinary cat blockages and bloat, or bloody stools. And while I understand dog body language and know how to avoid those tense situations dogs can create, I am incredibly quick to say when we are going to the emergency vet, gosh forbid.

“Our pup is turning 3 in June and we had never left her with anyone. We found Kessia and felt an instant connection. She confidently, but gently assured our pup and us that there was nothing to worry about, and her two pups instantly welcomed ours in playful banter. We have no concerns in leaving our pup with Kessia.”
“Madeline was great at communicating and keeping me updated about Ponyo. She sent lots of photos and videos. It looks like Ponyo had a great time! I’m already scheduling my next sitting sesh with Madeline again.”
“Highly recommend. Very responsive throughout booking process and with updates during our pets stay. Diego came home happy and exhausted from all the fun he had. Would definitely book with Alex again”
“Great dawg sitter … had to find a place with a short notice and he was flexible and accessible… nice house with fenced in yard so I felt secure as my boys are little … coco and skully were very relaxed when I got them home so I knew they were comfortable in Joe’s setting … highly recommended… and Joe is a very very nice fellow …”
“Jacob took superb care of my dog during my business trip. I had full confidence Odie was in excellent hands. We returned to find him very happy. I highly recommend Jacob's services.”
“Dessirae is the best! This was our dogs' first stay with her, and it was great! The dogs loved her and her home. The dogs were not entirely sure that they wanted to return home with me, when I showed up to retrieve them today. I only hope that they were well behaved, as we hope that they will have future stays with her.”
“This was our Sophie’s first overnight stay at a boarding home (Sophie is 9 months old). I love that she was exposed to a farm home setting with other dogs, cats, cows, and a family that included kids for her to play with. Socialization was important to us, and I am happy to say that Sophie came home tired and happy, and I am sure will be ready to visit Katie and her family again in the near future. Thank you, Katie, for making this a positive experience for our pup.”
“Heidi took such good care of my dog for a long weekend. She got plenty of exercise and play time I got updates every day which I loved. Definitely will be having Heidi watch my dog again.”
“Wonderful experience! Our babies have never stayed with anyone other than family so we were a little apprehensive. But Michelle was awesome! She was very good about sending pics and videos throughout the stay. Will definitely try to use her services again!”
“Incredibly positive experience! Abby and her family provided wonderful care for our Goose while we were away for a quick trip to the cities. Her genuine love for dogs was evident, and she went above and beyond to ensure our Goose's comfort and happiness, and sent us regular updates and photos to reassure us of that. I returned to a happy and well-cared-for pup, and would highly recommend her as a host for your dog! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Excellent care of our pups. Lovely family, nice fenced in yard. Amanda managed the pups very well, and that included medication for one of the dogs and a puppy. She was excellent!”
“Alia was amazing with Jean Pierre. She was super attentive and sent pictures fingiam getting along with the other pups. She even helped me find my way home from Wisconsin! Highly recommend.”
“Alisha and Nick were very nice and flexible the while time. They sent me pictures of my dog and updates about what they were up to the whole time. I definitely recommend them!”
About: I have worked for roughly two years dog sitting for friends and family. Typically these have been in my own home - occasionally overnight. I have a fenced in back yard for my 3 dogs & 2 cats so I have experience with both :) I have complete availability currently, so my dog at home gets quite a lot of walks and park time. If possible, i also try to socialize him with people each day. Typically I take my dog to the dog park in the evening with a long walk in the morning. This works best for my dogs energy levels, but each dog is different. I am also trying to socialize my dog in public as he is a bit scared of humans so we try to hit some breweries here and there.
“Kristy has been an amazing host for our dog ! She gave us daily feedbacks and videos from our dog. She has a backyard and managed the potty times according to the intense heat we had last week and it was very appreciated to have someone care about the little details.”
“Our dog was well loved and well taken care of! She was treated like one of the family and I received plenty of updates. Would definitely recommend and will be using Destiiny again in the near future!”
“Awesome sitters! They were flexible on pickup/dropoff times, sent lots of pictures, and really cared for our dogs. We never use sitters so we were nervous to be away from our dogs, but they took such great care of them and made us feel comfortable leaving them. Will definitely book them again in the future!”
“My dog Kylo stayed with Kim and her family for the first time for about a week, and although it’s always a little nerve-wracking leaving him with a new sitter, especially for an extended length of time, Kim was gracious and communicative before and during my trip. She sent photos and even reached out when he had some tummy issues so we could help him feel well again. I’m truly grateful to have found her and will definitely book with her again.”
