“I always leave my fur baby with Carissa and notice she is always happy when leaving her! She is great at sharing picture of Freida and makes me feel assured she is in great hands. Accommodating and great social interactions. Will continue to book with her and have even driven 3 hours before only because I trust her so much. Thank you again Carissa!”

“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”

“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.”

“Both my dogs had an absolute blast! I was so lucky to find Hayden! She was amazing at send pictures and checking in with me on how things were going! Both dogs enjoyed the spacious yard to play and run around in as well as being cared for as one of her own! Hayden is so easy to work with and made me feel so comfortable leaving my two dogs in her care! Would absolutely recommend her!”

“Jill was fantastic all around! Banks loved spending time with her and it was a relief for us to enjoy our vacation. She was so accomodating on the timing of pickup and dropoff which again made traveling a breeze. We'll be using her again soon!”

“Our dog Zero had such a good time at Amanda's, we actually felt guilty picking him up! Amanda shared regular updates and photos, and, while she maintained Zero's normal routine of walks, meals, and sleep, the extra play and snuggle time the family gave Zero clearly made him one content, tuckered out pup. We would definitely bring Zero to Amanda's for boarding again in the future.”

About: I have been relied on to care for friends, family, and neighbors pets since I was old enough to take responsibility. When I was 14, my helping of peoples pets started when I watched a family friends dog for 4 years during week days and occasional weekends. I worked at a doggie day care facility for 4 months at the end of 2021, doing all duties that go into caring for our furry friends. I went to college to get a degree as a Veterinary Technician for a year and a half. During the time of schooling I worked in a vet clinic and took on the job role as a kennel technician, helping out with anything and everything I could get my hands on. I dropped school because of personal and external obstacles but would love to go back in the future to finish. I only aim to please and never disappoint! Please choose me to be your pets new best friend! I'm currently working full time in Gilman WI, Mon-Thurs 630AM-4PM, Fri 630AM-1030AM. I am mostly available during weekends. The earlier you book with me, the better. I like to plan ahead. I try to be flexible and fit in your pet sitting needs! When caring for pets in a clients home, I am sure to make sure that I am careful when first meeting animals as I know it could be dangerous because of their protectiveness. I make sure to look over instructions twice, and double check that all to-dos are completed before leaving the clients home. I make sure to potty before I leave each time to avoid messes and make sure that they get exercise/attention during my time with them, as I know they feel down without someone home with them.
“Tyler and Caitlyn were great with our golden retriever Sadie. Sadie came home happy and tired. They also sent picture updates while we were gone. We will have them watch Sadie again in the future!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and honestly can’t remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by pets. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I regularly dog sit for friends and family, and I genuinely love it. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I show up with patience, energy, and a lot of love. I take pet care seriously, but I also truly enjoy it. Being around animals is my happy place. I probably like them more than humans, but I’ll let your pet be the judge of that. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m typically home and have a flexible schedule. I’m usually out for a couple hours most days, but otherwise I’m around and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. On weekends I’m also fairly flexible and either at home or doing low-key activities, so I can adjust easily to the needs of each pet. I enjoy making pet care a consistent part of my routine and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care based on each pet’s needs and comfort level. In my home, I keep things very relaxed with lots of supervision, cuddle time, potty breaks, playtime, and regular outdoor walks on a leash. I also make sure pets are fed on schedule and always have fresh water. In a client’s home, I prefer to focus on walks and potty breaks or quick check-ins depending on what’s needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking closely to their normal routine.
“Valerie is such a kind and friendly person! She truly cares and is very attentive. From the photos she sent, my pups looked relaxed, happy, and completely at ease. When I picked them up, they were content—and totally exhausted, which tells me they had plenty of playtime and attention. I would absolutely recommend Valerie to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family.”

“Kim was very kind to accommodate a short notice visit. She even fit in a meet and greet right away which I really appreciated. She was super responsive and sent lots of updates. Drop off and pick up times were flexible and she was right on time. Our dog came home happy, I couldn't ask for a better experience.”

About: I love dogs and have two of my own - a little man named Sid and big golden named Ruby. Everyone in my family has a dog as well so I am very used to being around pets. I am an active person and would love to walk, run with, or care for your dog! I work 2 days a week and I am flexible on weekends, so just let me know what you're thinking! We have two kids at home, 3 and under, so must be okay with sweet kiddos. I live in home with a big fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs. I have a small dog and large dog who get along very well with other dogs. They get super playful around other dogs, so your dog would surely have a fun time and get all his/her energy out! I am working part-time and home with my babies the other days, allowing a lot of flexibility with caring for your pet. We have some occasional things planned for weekends but are otherwise pretty open! I have a fenced in, nice yard for dogs to play and run in. We live in a great walking neighborhood. We have two dogs to keep your fur baby company as well as two young children. Animals must be kid-friendly for our home!
“Katie is Super nice! Loved getting a few photos during our absence. You can tell Katie is an animal lover. Very kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable about dogs! Thank you Katie! Owen misses you!”

“Carissa did a great job befriending our hesitant, older cat, Mingus! I knew she was the right sitter when she posted a picture sitting on the floor behind the couch, which she had pulled away from the wall, to coerce him into being pet. By the second week, he was coming to greet her when she arrived. We would definitely have her sit again!”


About: Cats have been a large part of my life, I have never lived without having at least 1. I’ve taken care of senior cats with higher needs to kittens that need hourly care. I am good at giving medication, friends and family go to me if they are having a hard time administering medication.
“Kaitlyn was great. We have 3 dogs and a cat. One of the dogs is very shy. She was great with him. And he had no issue with her coming in , feeding, and visiting. I also have a hyper dog and she was great with her as well. We are very happy with Kaitlyn. We will definitely use her services again.!!!! If you are in need of a petsitter contact Kaitlyn!!!!!”


“Michelle regularly does check ins and has done a couple overnights for my pup. She arrives on time, takes great care of my dog, communicates, follow instructions, and sends lots of pics. She is incredibly nice and attentive to my pup and also this nervous dog mom lol. I am very selective in who let care for my gentle giant; I trust Michelle completely and know my baby is in amazing hands. She treats my dog like one of her own, his schedule is followed, and he gets to relax at home with lots of love while I am a way. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could! We are grateful for her at our house!”

“Carissa was very easy to work with setting up the first meeting/trial run. It is nice to have daycare options when we are at our campsite and want to go do things, without having to leave him at the camper. Cope must have really enjoyed himself because he headed back towards her house, rather than the car when it was time to leave.”

“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: Between the two of us, my wife and I have over 50 years of combined experience caring for animals. We both grew up in homes filled with pets — dogs, cats, and a few other critters — and from a young age, it was our responsibility to feed, train, walk, and care for them every day. Now, as a married couple of six years, we share our home with two happy, healthy dogs who are a huge part of our family. We understand what it takes to keep pets safe, comfortable, and loved — whether that means daily walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. Your pets will be treated like part of our family — with the same love, attention, and care we give our own. ❤️ We are home 7 days a week all the time (except for errands here and there). Dogs are able to go out whenever they need either to go potty and burn some energy We offer a safe, loving home where every pet is treated like family. Outdoor time is always supervised on leash, and crate care is available if preferred.
“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.”

“Amanda and her family really helped me in a pinch with some last minute dog care as I attended a birthday party. What a lovely family, and the kids were so helpful too, wearing Ruby out so she got her social time in for the day :-) Amanda went above and beyond, even letting me use a gift bag of hers since the one I got didn't fit the gift I bought. Super accommodating and sweet, would definitely book again in the future!”
“Jacob was great for Charlie. My dog had a lot of anxiety and never met Jacob before but overall I could tell that Charlie was well taken care of and received lots of good support from Jacob. I would definitely use Jacob again.”

“Tawni provided excellent care to my dog. Sent frequent updates and pictures and made sure we was taken care of. She had a fenced in yard which was perfect for my little chi.”


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 want your animal to feel at ease, or even excited when I interact with them. Nothing is worse than feeling like your fur baby isn't getting the care they deserve/need. Let me be the care taker that takes the time to figure out what your furry loved one needs, whether it's playing or just want some company, I'm here for it. Im a nurse by trade currently working part time. My schedule is flexible, and can schedule my hours around yours, within reason. Life happens, let me help relieve some of that stress. I have a fenced in yard and a 5 year old, 50 lb golden doodle named Franklin. He get daily morning walks and afterwards paws and ears get cleaned. Routines are important! Treats are appropriately plentiful, especially while building rapport or encouraging wanted behaviors. I follow your lead! Cc

Hank has had a lot of changes recently and is a little reactive to certain things, but they followed the plan and adjusted his nervous system appropriately. Amazing dog sitters! I will definitely be utilizing them in the future.”
