“Kim and her family are absolutely the best! Our dear Vera and Nikki first stayed with them when Vera was in kidney failure (she has since passed 😢🙏🙏). Kim’s husband took especially great care of her, and I am deeply grateful for the love and compassion they show toward the animals in their care. Kim is incredibly accommodating and flexible, always going above and beyond. I cannot recommend them highly enough—simply the best! Nikki will be a regular guest for many years to come!! Thank you! 🙏”
“Was the first time that I used Meagen’s services. I think it was wonderful and I think she is great with animals. Her children’s and be really good with animals too. She sent me pictures of him and he was right at home in a new environment. I strongly recommend her and will definitely utilize her service again.”
“Did an absolute amazing job with our dogs. Sent us many photo updates and any questions or concerns were answered right away. Very accommodating and friendly. Kept our dogs active and social. Followed dietery needs. We can just tell our dogs had a great slumber party!;)”
“Brenda was very flexible with drop off & pick up times. She provided updates with pics during our dog's stay. Prior to his stay, she ensured our dog got along with hers by arranging a meet & greet. A great choice for anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing!! She always kept us updated. Max and Olive had the best time! She treated ours like they were her own! Definitely using again in the future! We had peace of mind being away knowing that our babies were in good hands!!”
“I can't thank Heather enough for taking such wonderful care of Snoopy while we were away on a month-long trip. Leaving our pup behind wasn't easy, and I'll admit I was a bit worried at first but I'm so glad we found Heather. From day one, she put our minds at ease. We received lovely weekly updates with plenty of pictures, which truly kept our worries at bay and let us enjoy our vacation knowing Snoopy was in great hands. Heather was incredibly attentive and proactive about Snoopy's needs. She promptly let us know when his food was running low and even offered to pick up more while we were away — that kind of thoughtfulness goes above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Sunshine was amazing. I don’t think my dog even missed me. He was spoiled. Sunshine has 2 amazing children who obviously love dogs. You can’t go wrong leaving your dog with Sunshine. We hope to use her again.”
“Miranda was SUCH a godsend! As soon as I met her, I knew my pooch was in good hands. She was wonderful about communication and also sent me updates which really helped me not to worry. I would 1000% go with Miranda again to take care of my dog!”
“April did a great job caring for my 2 chiweenies. She kept me updated with messages and pictures and was responsive to questions etc. I could tell that my dogs had a good time with her and I will definitely reach out again if I need a place for them to go in the future.”
“We cannot begin to say how accommodating and wonderful Brianna was while she was boarding Cali. She made sure that Cali's routine/ schedule was followed and kept her busy throughout the day. She integrated Cali into her family and made sure "our baby" was given the attention and love she's used to. We highly recommend Brianna to anyone wanting the best care for their pet...”
“Ashley and her family took excellent care of my Little Lucy! She sent us pictures of Lucy sunbathing and taking walks with the family. Definitely will have them watch her again!”
“Monica took excellent care of Enzo. She ensured Enzo went on long walks and provided plenty of updates throughout his stay. I would gladly request Monica to watch Enzo again in the future. Many thanks!! 🙏”

“We recently had Marisa watch our cats, Olive and Barley, while we were on vacation, and she did an amazing job! It was her first time caring for them, and she exceeded our expectations. She showered them with love and attention, and it was clear they enjoyed her company. Marisa was also very responsible, leaving everything in order for our return and even leaving a kind note. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Marisa, for taking such great care of our furry family members!”

“Kaylee did a wonderful job watching my cats. They didn’t come out to make friends, but she found their hiding spots so she could check on them every day. I will definitely be booking with her again”
“Diana was so great with my kitties Lira and Tzuki. She gave detailed updates and sent super cute pictures. I have a lot of anxiety being away from the kitties and she totally understood that and made me feel more at ease! She took notes and was patient with them. I felt like my kitties received excellent care :)”
“Michelle has been excellent ! We are so fortunate our Mabel had such awesome care and attention . We felt very comfortable having Michelle in our home and spending time with our best girl ! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone who loves their pet(s) and wants the security of knowing they are loved and cared for 1,000% of the time . I was nervous to use Rover as I am first time user . Michelle made it so easy and comfortable .”

About: I have 2 cats of my own & they are about to turn 2 years old in May! I love everything about them: their unique personalities and quirks. Their playful nature. Their snuggles & their grace. I clip their nails & brush/groom them regularly and have many enrichment toys for them to stay active & engaged ❤️

About: With working at an animal shelter, I have had to clean and care for many different cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. I can administer medication to cats, if needed. I am confident that I can keep your cats area clean and make sure they have enough socialization while you're away.

“Stephanie has been great! This is the second time she's watched my greyhound Chuck in 3 weeks now. She's very communicative and even once was able to change his food on the fly (he's having some belly issues) while I was out of town. She has the utmost concern for the animal's well being. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be booking again.”
About: I’ve had roughly 13 personal years of cat experience. I don’t mind cleaning litter boxes. It’s just a part of the cat life. I’ve gotten accustomed to the cat chaos at 2AM. And I would love to be apart of your cats journey as well! ( Home Experience Not Professional)
About: I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for cats of all ages and personalities, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for while their owners are away.

I take pride in building trust with both cats and their owners through clear communication, patience, dependability, and a genuine love for animal care.

“We love Sandy and so do our dogs! We honestly don’t know what we would do without her. She takes such great care of our girls that they seem completely unimpressed when we come to pick them up at the end of each stay. Highly recommend!”
About: I have one dog and one cat that tend to stay upstairs. I absolutely love animals, So I hope to have my own little hobby farm one day. If your pet is in my home, please know they’ll always feel loved, safe and most likely tired out from all out walks. I believe humans and animals benefit from exercise which helps with behavior, same for humans. So bring your pup to me, and they’ll be tired for you:) Also, I have a special place in my heart for special-needs animals that need a little extra love and patience. I have been doing dog-watching for the past four years, in addition to working part-time for 10 years. I work at a school right down the road, which is perfect for dog watching. I leave at 7am, and I’m back by 11am each day. I do boarding, play dates, pickups, drop-ins, and trips to the dog park. I have a fenced-in yard, so your dog may play, run, or simply get some fresh air. I spend my time walking dogs, feeding them, playing, cuddling, kisses, relaxing on the porch and constantly opening and closing the door so they can go outside. Ha! It’s my life, and I truly love it.
“Julie was such an incredible help and so caring and loving towards Ruby! I appreciate her flexibility with her schedule and that she was with Ruby the whole time playing and cuddling with her :)”

“Sunshine and family were so awesome! We have a senior dog who's a little particular and she made him really comfortable. We got lots of cute update pics and pickup and drop-off were smooth & easy. We are from out of state and couldn't meet ahead of time so we really appreciated the warmth and care that Sunshine showed to us and our pup.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 4 years. I have experience with sick dogs and puppies, and I am also outdoorsy so if your dog needs walked I would love to do that! I am available from Monday morning through Sunday evening every week any time, and I am okay with short notice because I understand that that's how life works sometimes. So as long as there is an opening I can work with you! I am currently only taking appointments for caring for pets in the clients home. I can come by for playtime, feeding, walking, and letting dogs out to use the bathroom.
“Heather took such great care of my girls! She responded quickly, sent lots of updates and the pups were good and tired when I picked them up. I will definitely be getting in touch with her next time I stay in Kenosha!”
“I would recommend Jody to anyone who cares about how there dog is cared for☺️ I felt like she cared about my dog as much as I did. He was taken care of with every aspect that gives you a sense of comfort. I consider me and my best friend very lucky to have found Jody.”
“April has been watching both my pups for quite some time now. They go to April multiple days a week for a full day. I receive photos, updates with concerns, etc. My pups are well cared for and are definitely wore out by the end of the day! I would definitely recommend her services. She even has meet and greets if other dogs will be present on days my pups are there and makes sure it is a good fit. It is very scary finding someone genuine to take care of your fur babies but April does wonderful and takes great care of them. Thanks!”
“Elba was amazing with my little 9 mo. old anxious dog. It was her first time in doggy daycare and Elba was up for the challenge. She had very useful observations and connected well with my little girl, making her feel much more comfortable. We had a great experience!”
About: I’m the most patient person when it comes to animals! I have two dogs of my own, Luna my Pug & Chopper my German Shepherd/Husky! I also have a bunny, Twix. I love training them to do new tricks as well as spending every possible second with them whether it’s blowing bubbles for them or cuddling on the couch watching Bluey! I currently do not work so I’m able to watch dogs all day, everyday! I love spending all the time in the world with my animals. I have a fenced yard as well as two super sweet babies to keep your pup company! I also have many toys and activities to do with the dogs.
“This was our first visit with Lucy and we were very happy with the care our dog received. She has a kind and gentle demeanor that makes our dog feel at home. Her partially fenced yard offers the perfect area for our pup to run off excess energy. We will definitely use Lucy’s services again.”

“Cat has been so great with my dog Ella. Ella is very slow to trust new people but has taken great strides with the guidance and patience of Cat. Cat always sends lots of pictures and a detailed report of how the visit went.”
“Michelle was prompt in responding, friendly and outgoing with our pups, and asked great questions about them! We re-booked her promptly and highly suggest her services if you're in the greater SE-WI area.”
“Carmen has been great! She filled in for my normal walker twice now and was timely both days. She sent pictures and a brief explanation of their walk and my pup was tired out after each walk. Can’t wait to use her again!”
About: Hi there! I’ve had the joy of caring for my mom’s and friends’ dogs over the years, and I was also a proud dog mom myself for over a decade. My sweet girl passed away last September, and while I’m not quite ready to bring another pup into my life full-time, I truly miss the companionship and would love the chance to care for your dog while you’re away. I have experience with senior dogs and pups who need special medical attention, including administering medication and monitoring health conditions like seizures. I understand how important it is to provide patient, attentive care—especially when a dog has unique needs. Whether your dog loves long walks or just relaxing on the couch, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I’d be honored to give your pup the love, attention, and comfort they deserve in your absence. I work from home and occasionally out in the field, but I'm never gone for more than a few hours—and I can adjust my schedule to be home the entire time if needed. Outside of work, I am a homebody, so you never have to worry about your dog being alone at night. While I do not have a fenced yard, I have a small courtyard and live in a residential neighborhood, which is excellent for walking. Inside my home, your dog is free to go wherever they like. No place is off limits (I am used to having a sliver of the bed).
“She always does amazing, goes above and beyond expectations! She provides LOTS of photos and gives a bunch of little details on how the walks went. Super grateful to have such a wonderful and caring person walk Maverick! 🥰”
About: We have had family dogs since I was a young girl. Since moving out on my own, I wanted to get a dog, but was not home frequently enough, initially with work & school obligations. I got 2 cats in the summer of 2023 & am wanting to help others care for their pets, as I find myself missing engagement with dogs & other family pets 💛 I am going to be working part-time and going to school part-time, which will be a reduction in my current schedule load. I am excited as this presents me with the opportunity to spend more time with pets! ❤️ This will also allow me the opportunity to “try on” the responsibility of caring for a dog and workshop any “need areas” before getting my own dog ☺️ I have a fenced-in yard and 2 cats live in my home. I have plenty of space to share in my townhouse & my neighborhood is conveniently walkable. There is another dog who lives next door, who is friendly & can keep your doggy company if you desire. I can easily crate your pup in an uncarpeted area, if necessary.
About: I have one dog and one cat that tend to stay upstairs. I absolutely love animals, So I hope to have my own little hobby farm one day. If your pet is in my home, please know they’ll always feel loved, safe and most likely tired out from all out walks.

About: Growing up I’ve always had multiple pets and was in charge of all the things that came along with taking care of pets. I have experience with cats and dogs and have owned quite a few of my own! Throughout the year I house sit for family and friends and watch up to 3-5 pets at a time! I work a flexible schedule so I am available a lot throughout the week, I can make most times work currently as my schedule is. I live in an apartment but I have a personal fenced in yard area just for us that can be used for taking the dogs out! I also have plenty of experience with walking dogs.
About: Hi there, I'm Nichole, and the dog in my profile picture is Chance! She was my best bud for 12 years so senior doggos are my heart! She helped me be familiar with giving oral medication and needing lots of naps and low-key play times! Besides Chance, I’ve had dogs whose ages range from 5 months to 10 years of age, and a variety of different breeds and sizes! I am comfortable with tug of war, playing fetch, or a good snuggle and belly rub. Currently we have two kitties and a doggo that just turned a year and an half (we’re working on behavioral needs with her so I’m very patient!) Are walks your furry best friend's favorite thing to do? Just leave me a note or give me instructions (if needed) in case they are really energetic or have a bigger than life personality so I know what they need. I can of course send pics of your best friend enjoying themselves on our walk, play time or even if they’re snoozing or chowing down on a meal. Do not hesitate to check in either asking how they are! It is my priority to be here while you’re away and to help you feel comfortable with their care even if I am just doing a check in. I know that their mom or dad is the best, but it’s my hope to help them not miss you as much while you're gone so I will make it a fun time for them and love them and care for them like they were my own. As far as how pet care fits into my daily routine, I would be available to walk or do check ins any time after 1 pm Monday-Thursdays and on Fridays anytime after 9 am as I am currently working summer school so have more flexibility in my schedule. Weekends are mostly free for the above mentioned as well as house sitting, I do like to keep some weekends free for a better work life balance though but of course still reach out and we can chat! For house sits I can do up to 4 days unless we’ve spoken of other arrangements; due to family/work life balance I will no longer do more than stated above unless I’ve already had you as a house sitting client prior. With doing house sits during summer I of course will be out of the house still for about 5 hours for working at school so I like to be up front about that but besides running a quick errand I would be back at your house so you can make sure your furry friend is receiving the best care while you’re away! I will care for your pets as if they were family. I will be as hands off or hands on as needed depending on what they like or need. :) I also do have my husband come with me to all meet and greets due to safety reasons. He will not come to the walking or drop ins when being done.
About: I am an active educator working with elementary aged students 10 months out of the year for the past sixteen years. However, I also have a special place in my heart for animals of all kinds. I have a particular interest and skillset working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments and have over 10 years of experience walking shelter dogs in my community. I have been passionate about dogs since I was a young girl, and when I finally got my own dog at the age of twelve, my desire to learn more about them and how to best care for them grew exponentially. Volunteering in the shelter environment, I have honed my skills in reading dog body language, creating safe walking environments, understanding and communicating health concerns, and handling boisterous, reactive, or fearful behaviors with calm kindness and care. Behavior is communication and I use my expertise as an educator to best care for and enrich the lives of the animals around me. I also adopted my own dog as adult from the humane society in 2018, who came with her own unique personality and behaviors such as reactivity, anxiety, dog reactivity, low confidence, and over-excitable drive. Throughout our eight years together, we have developed a strong bond and communication style that has brought her to achieving her Canine Good Citizen Certificate, and become a calm, confident, well-balanced dog. She also has learned how to communicate with me through augmentative and alternative communication buttons and express her personality in words I can understand which has been mind blowing! I love giving her the best life possible and I’m excited to support you and your furry friend along that journey as well during our time working together. I’m currently an educator who works full-time 10 months out of the year, but am available evenings and weekends. However, during the months of June and July I am available during the mornings, afternoons, or evenings and have a flexible schedule to accommodate you and your pet’s specific needs. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to allow your dog time to run and play freely or just bask in the summer sunshine. My dog needs multiple, slow introductions to new dogs, so if you are in need of overnight care, additional meet and greet walks would be required to make sure they are a good fit together before any bookings.
About: Ive been around animals for a decent part of my life. I’ve grown fond of having animals around, with 3 of my own kitties. I’m very diligent and patient with all animals.

About: I've grown up with animals my entire life and have been caring for them as long as I can remember. For the past three years, I've worked at a local animal shelter, giving me experience in caring for cats and dogs with a range of personalities and behavioral needs. I'm also comfortable giving medication to pets if needed. In addition, I have dog sat for family friends before, so I have experience in this type of care. I have also foster four different dogs that have all gotten adopted, so I'm used to many different personalities. I work part-time four days a week so I can easily find time to care for your animals around that! On Sundays and Mondays I can drop in before 7:30 am or after 12 pm and on Tuesdays and Fridays I can drop in before 2 pm or after 6pm. I am willing to do whatever fits your pet's routine during my drop in visits. I would love to spend time with them each day and make sure they have a great time while you're away. I can crate pets as needed. I'm very flexible on the type of care I'm asked to provide.
About: I grew up with pets, I have 3 dogs my oldest one is 11. I watch over a friend's dogs as of right now.

My friend has a cat and I love going over to his house to pet her. she's grown a liking to me and I have to her as well, I give her treats time to time and pet her a lot.

About: I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for dogs of all breeds and sizes, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away.

I take pride in building trust with both pets and their owners through clear communication, dependability, and a genuine passion for animal care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care. I am able to accommodate feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box maintenance, and any special care needs. Whether it's a daily visit or extended care while owners are away, I make pet care a priority and ensure each pet receives the attention, companionship, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my client's home, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, companionship, and any other care instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs, ensuring they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and attention while maintaining a safe and clean environment. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and stress-free while their family is away.

“Kim and her family are absolutely the best! Our dear Vera and Nikki first stayed with them when Vera was in kidney failure (she has since passed 😢🙏🙏).

“I can't thank Heather enough for taking such wonderful care of Snoopy while we were away on a month-long trip. Leaving our pup behind wasn't easy, and I'll admit I was a bit worried at first but I'm so glad we found Heather. From day one, she put our minds at ease. We received lovely weekly updates with plenty of pictures, which truly kept our worries at bay and let us enjoy our vacation knowing Snoopy was in great hands. Heather was incredibly attentive and proactive about Snoopy's needs. She promptly let us know when his food was running low and even offered to pick up more while we were away — that kind of thoughtfulness goes above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Sunshine was amazing. I don’t think my dog even missed me. He was spoiled. Sunshine has 2 amazing children who obviously love dogs. You can’t go wrong leaving your dog with Sunshine. We hope to use her again.”

“April did a great job caring for my 2 chiweenies. She kept me updated with messages and pictures and was responsive to questions etc. I could tell that my dogs had a good time with her and I will definitely reach out again if I need a place for them to go in the future.”
“We cannot begin to say how accommodating and wonderful Brianna was while she was boarding Cali. She made sure that Cali's routine/ schedule was followed and kept her busy throughout the day. She integrated Cali into her family and made sure "our baby" was given the attention and love she's used to. We highly recommend Brianna to anyone wanting the best care for their pet...”

We would love to have Debbie host our pup again in the future!”

About: Hi there! My name is Jamie and I am a very active dog lover!! I love taking dogs for walks and runs, playing fetch, playing tug-of-war, and playing any other kinds of games that your dog may enjoy! I have 3 years of paid experience in caring for both dogs and cats. I love spending time with furry friends and will make sure that I take care of your pet as if it were my own! My husband and I have two English Cream Retrievers and we love them more than anything in the world! I know that puppies, dogs, and all other animals require a lot of time and attention, and I am more than willing to provide the care that they need! My husband and I are both Firefighter/Paramedics, and know first-hand how difficult and anxiety provoking finding a reliable pet sitter can be. I am committed to walking your furry friend when needed, dropping in to visit them while you are away for the day, and we are open to hosting your furry friend in our home if you need extended care. We have a small, fenced in backyard where your furry friends can play with ours, and we live near the lake so extended walks are always available!! I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you and your fur-babies!! I am a Firefighter/Paramedic and work a rotating schedule. I know my schedule in advance, so scheduling should not be an issue! If we are boarding your dog in our home, someone is almost always home between my husband and I! We also walk our own dogs daily, so we are used to daily walks and exercise! If your fur-baby is spending time at my house, I have two very loving and playful doggos that can keep your dog company! I live near the lake, so there are plenty of places to walk and explore! I am also willing to take your dog to the dog park at Pets Park if that is something your dog would like! I am very active, so long walks/runs are not an issue!
