Personalized care for your dog or cat - Eagle River

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Eagle River
“Gretchen and Tim were great! They accommodated my schedule, sent daily updates/pictures, and their home lacked clutter that could have gotten my pup 'in trouble'. I'd definitely board my pup with them again.”


“Jayne was exceptionally welcoming to our pups in her home while we vacationed with family. She was fully attentive to their needs, made sure they had plenty of Northwoods fresh air, and communicated with us regularly about how their stay was going. We were absolutely confident that our pups were in great hands with Jayne looking after them and wouldn't hesitate to have them visit with her again if the need arises.”

“Our dogs had a great time! We got plenty of updates and Wendy took great care of them. They are usually anxious when they are away from home but they seemed very comfortable and relaxed!”

“We were visiting the Rhinelander, WI area and decided last-minute to go snowmobiling. We were so grateful that Jessica was willing to take our last-minute booking! She took wonderful care of our dog, Anokha, and sent us timely photo updates that really gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our trip knowing he was safe and happy. Since this is a pretty remote area with not many Rover sitters, we feel lucky we found such a star sitter. Highly recommend Jessica!”

“We are so happy to have found Tammy and Steven! Our dog is old and is on lots of medications and they did great with her. She seemed happy with them which made us happy! We already booked them for our next vaca!”

“Melissa was fantastic. Our puppy ended up having diarrhea from stress of us being gone, and she handled it and was so attentive! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“We just recently found Jayne and are absolutely thrilled! She took the time to meet with us in advance of our trip to discuss our needs and ask questions about the drop-in visits for our pets. While we were away, Jayne sent us daily photos, video and updates on the cats. We could tell they were well cared for and happy upon our return. We really appreciated Jayne’s reliability and the care she provided. We would not hesitate to schedule her for future visits.”

“Jordan did a fantastic job of dropping in on my kitty while I was away. She had great communication and promptly replied to messages. She administered meds for my kitty with no problem, and even did a couple of extra things like bring in my mail and water my plants. I highly recommend her services and look forward to booking with her again.”


“Twice Andy looked after our three cats while we were away for a little under a week each time. She was perfectly on time for our first meet-and-great, asked good questions during that meeting and connected well with the kitties. Well, that first time only two of three kitties really, as the last is super shy. However, the shy one warmed up to Andy during our absence, and if that's not an endorsement, I don't know what is. Andy provided nice updates while we were away, and everything was clean when we returned.”


“Hillary is a very reliable and communicative sitter. We have rebooked her several times and it makes travel less stressful to know our cats are being well-cared for!”

About: Thank you for considering me to take care of your animals! I just moved up to northern Wisconsin from Austin, Texas a handful of months ago and am looking to develop new customer relationships. I have 20 + years of experience with dogs and also volunteered on and off at Austin Animal Center in the dog enrichment program. I was heavily active on Rover prior to Covid. Following that, I had a good core group of animals through repeat customers and did not offer Rover services as often. I love dogs, cats, well...most animals in general! I feel more of a connection with them than I do with most humans. I currently live with 2 small dogs and an indoor/outdoor cat. When I watch your dogs, I do so as I'd want someone else to watch mine and will definitely give them all the love and attention they deserve and have their best interests at heart. I look forward to meeting you and my future fur friends. My current schedule is very flexible, so I should be able to work with you to customize care based on you and your animals needs. I am comfortable with whatever plans and routines you have in place for your animals and would like for me to follow while I am watching them.
About: I grew up with many pets in my house since I was born: Dogs, Cats, Horses, Fish, and Reptiles. (Even large cats and wolves). I’m an avid animal lover and treat all animals with dignity & respect. I currently work remote & set my own work schedule. I have plenty of quality time to spend with yr pet(s). I’m available anytime during the week or weekend. I treat my pet(s) and your pet(s) like “Family”. They are well cared for and receive generous attention, love, and plenty of great walking exercise daily. If your pet(s) requires special attention or medical services, I’m eager to help and take of your beloved pet(s) while you can be reassured yr pet(s) will be maintained in a professional, responsible and loving manner.

About: I’ve provided drop-in care for multiple cats, including feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter boxes, and giving them love and attention while their owners are away. I also cared for a blind cat that required medication, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and meeting special needs. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home!

“Receptive and respectful. Got back to me in a timely manner and has great availability for me. My foster dog really likes her and she listened to all the directions so far, she even did a bit extra and it's greatly appreciated.”
About: I’ve taken care of many families dogs. I always create a good connection with any dog. If your animal is timid or shy around me, I always try to build their trust so they can be comfortable with me! I am able to do whatever it is that you require when your furry loved one is in my care. I also have nearly 4 years of work experience at a dog daycare and boarding facility. I am currently still working in the same position part-time. I am currently a full time student at Nicolet College. I do schoolwork during the week. As I am a full time student during the week, I work every weekend. After the school semester finishes in May, I will be working during the week and will have most of the weekend off! Every pet in my care is treated like they’re my own. I keep up with their daily routines and needs. I make sure everything is clean for when the owners arrive back home so they can relax with their furry family member(s).

About: I’m a retired teacher, mom of 4 grown children, and Nana of 5 youngsters! Before going back to teaching, I worked for several years at a local veterinarian. We’ve had dogs as members of our family for 25 years, ranging in size from 10-105#. Our mini dachshund just passed and we are now “dogless”. While having them, it was always difficult to travel because I wouldn’t board them. We’d love to care for your dog as we did for ours. We live at the end of a road outside of Eagle River with little to no traffic. Although we’d love to have another dog of our own, we’ve decided to do some traveling, which can be difficult with animals. Our daughter has just moved and taken her two cats with her, so we are missing pets! As I said, I’m a retired teacher, so my time is your dog’s time. There are times When we travel to Atlanta to babysit our grandkids ,but we always know in advance. I require your dog to be leashed while I care For him, unless we have discussed otherwise We have so much room to walk paths and areas in good weather.
“Mark was a fantastic dogwalker! He was able to help out at short notice when I didn't have anyone to walk my dog. And he also helped speak with my parents about Zosia's training needs and offer to support and train, particularly with her leash-pulling. Zosia really liked him and he's really great with animals. Would definitely book again!”

“Jordan took the best care of Bailey while we were on vacation!! The communication was great and all of the pictures and updates were appreciated. We will definitely use Jordan again!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was 5 years old. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their dogs and let them out when there weren’t home. I have had all types of dogs ranging from aggressive rescues to seniors. I’m currently working part time so I have weekends and at least 3 weekdays off but sometimes get off early. I can stop by anytime when I’m not working. I will be coming to your house to feed, play, and let your dog out and if need be sleep over. If need be I will put them on a leash and walk them, but if you have a fenced yard that’s great.

“Hillary was friendly and professional when we met in person. She arrived on time and interacted highly with all of our pets-not just the one we hired her to walk. She used the app to track the walk and indicate potty activity! We were so impress with her and the app. I also felt totally comfortable trusting her in our home.”

I’ve grown up caring for my family’s Golden Retriever for the past 12 years, along with helping care for my grandma’s dogs—a rescue mix and a poodle.

During the summer, I’m based in Eagle River, and beginning August 15th I’ll be returning to Madison for college, where I’ll continue offering pet sitting services. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. When I’m caring for your pet, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of attention, keep them fed, exercised, and happy, and make sure they receive the care they deserve. I’ll also stay in touch throughout the visit with updates and photos, and I’ll always contact you right away if I have any questions or concerns.
