“So glad I found Jennifer! She was so nice and took great care of my two dogs! I was away for 8 days and got daily updates and pictures/videos which I loved! She also asked me questions and replied very quickly if I would ask her questions. Would definitely use her again and recommend her! Thank you!!!”

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.

“Andrea was wonderful. My dog Gracie has severe anxiety and it wasn’t going to work, unfortunately. I ended up having to leave work and take her home. I felt bad for Andrea, but she reassured me she was fine with everything. Some dogs just don’t do well in other people’s homes. Anita”

“I had an amazing first experience using the Rover app with Melissa! Chopper seemed comfortable, happy, and well taken care of the entire time. Melissa communicated incredibly well and sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave me a peace of mind. She was also very sweet, flexible with her availability, and active with Chopper. Melissa took Chopper on several long walks, and it was clear he had a great time with her. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring, active, and reliable sitter. I look forward to booking with her again for Chopper in the future!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life I have taken care of dogs in the past as well as I have four dogs of my own right now. I have the privilege of fostering through our pack animal rescue Inc and have saved 81 dogs. With that process I have had dogs that are dominant submissive some dogs that are high energy some dogs that are extremely scared and timid some dogs that do not get well with other dogs or do not get well with cats. We have worked with them trained Incorporated them into the pack. I feel that fostering has helped me grow and learned different breeds and personalities and ages. I have a such a passion for dogs I've loved them I love everything about them and I'm very amazed by your personality and instincts. As of right now I am home. I am a mom to 5 kids, 4 dogs, and two cats. I Foster through our pack animal rescue so I always have extra dogs in the house as well. There will be plenty of time for exercise and socialization if that is something you were looking for. My evenings are the busiest due to my kids being involved in things. Most weekends I am available as well. I have a fenced in yard. I am capable of separating dogs if need be I have space for kennels if that is what you choose. My dogs have been around others and are used to sharing their space due to fostering. I go for walks daily I am able to handle multiple dogs at a time as well. Just like our fosters when we have a dog in our home we respect its boundaries and also give them all the love that they deserve. This of course as well goes into play if not at my house if at client's house. As I do have a husband and five children I will be the only one managing feeding letting out and any other things that was specifically for your dog. This would be for the safety of everyone and for the responsibility and liability of me.

About: Hey there! If my calendar doesn’t match what you need or with how far in advance to book- please reach out! I’m pretty flexible with that! I’ve taken care of pets for many many years! From my own to families and friends. There is NOTHING more that I love, than dogs!! My two labs I’ve raised since 6 weeks old. I talk to my two babies all day long. If I’m not with my boys, I’m constantly thinking of them and wanting to know how they are! If I run an errand I always want to call my dogs and talk to them and let them know momma will be right back! I am that crazy dog lady that tells my boys everything I do! I feel they need to know and I want them to feel loved! If I’m not snuggling my boys or playing with them I’m telling them stories or just loving on them! I will do anything for my babies and any dog in my care! The more the merrier!! My two labs are laid back and great with other dogs. They really don’t mind that they are around! Though I know they would love a playmate at times! Anyone can rely on me to check in on a pet, feed, take out and any other duties especially loving on them! I’m not one to just drop in and do the duty- I want to get all the snuggles and kisses and let them have some play time! Some friends and neighbors have been having me stay and take care of their pets or drop in care for 10+ years. There’s nothing I love more than caring for pets! They give me the happiness that my loved ones do because they are “my loved ones too!” Some people say I’m a dog whisper. I live and breathe for my 2 dogs I currently have. Ages 10 and 12! I enjoy seeing them run, play, tail wag and smile! I’m home with them daily and talk to them as if they can understand ;) they are my Velcro babies and I wouldn’t have it any other way!! Let me know if you would like to meet up and we can get things rolling and I can be a help with whatever it is that you need to make sure your pets are well cared for, happy, loved and having fun. It’s like a mini vacation for the pets! :) I look forward to making your pets stay, walk, boarding, or any help I can be, comfortable, safe and loving! I am super Excited to give all my love for your fur baby and then some! I would love to and enjoy sending pictures and updates on my own and also anything that would help you know that your pet is having a fun time and well cared for! Can’t wait to chat and meet up and be your dog’s new friend!! I will love them like my own! :) I’m available most of the day to play with, feed, take out, or just some extra snuggle time! Evenings also! Don’t hesitate to reach out even if it’s for one little helping! I take care of our 2 dogs we have now during the day! But I’m looking for extra snuggles and putting that smile on your pets face as much as mine!! I would love to play with, take out, feed and love on your pet for 5 minutes or 1 hour! Very happy to do so! I’d love for your pet to feel loved and safe in my home with my babies , my two black labs who love everyone!! They bring me soo much happiness and joy!! I’m home always to be with them and adore and enjoy them!! 🩷

They rule the house, and my schedule revolves around their schedule.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats, during all the stages of their lives, for many years. I've had dogs of various breeds with serious health conditions that required nearly constant monitoring, complex medication management, and frequent vet involvement. I have taken care of puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats, and pets at all stages in between. Providing loving care for pets has been a major focus of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom, so pet care pretty much is my routine! And since my husband works from home, I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry poopsies too 😊 I have two young adult standard poodles and a mini poodle puppy. They, like all of our dogs before them, live in our house as members of our family. They are crate trained and know basic commands for safety, but when they're not playing outside or on a walk, they can mostly be found lounging on couches or beds (mostly ours, sometimes theirs). I've also been a dedicated sitter for my sister's cats for almost 20 years. I've cared for kittens to seniors in that time, and seen to all their needs.

“Becky did an incredible job for our cat Suna. It was our first time leaving him alone for a weekend, but Becky made us feel at ease by going above and beyond and letting us know about the slightest changes in mood or behavior. She also spent a lot of time cuddling and playing with Suna and even washed his food containers. We could not be more happy. Becky, thank you so much and please come again!”

About: I had my first pet sitting experience when I was 13 years old, not including the family pet. I have cared for animals of all shapes and sizes since then. I love working with animals and learning about their personalities. I am okay with reactive animals and have worked with different ones. I am willing to work with your animal's needs in any way, including medication and certain training exercises that you request. I do not work a job at this time, but I fill my time with odd jobs for others while I wait for college to start back up in the fall! I like to stay busy and do anything from pet care, to shopping for others, to day care for family members! With that being said, my schedule is pretty flexible, especially with advanced notice! I will follow any instructions given and am always ready to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of. I will do whatever your pet needs to stay happy and healthy.

About: I’ve had two dogs growing up, a mini boxer and a French bulldog. I’ve cared for them all my life. I have bathed, walked, fed, and gave them so much love. We got our Puppy when I was 14, so I have a lot of experience caring for puppies as well. I didn’t grow up in a home with cats, but I love them too. I’ve had lots of experience cat sitting and get along with them well too! I am a masters student at UW-Stevens Point, in the Natural Resources department. I will not be able to provide services mid day Fridays or Mondays, but I am flexible the rest of the week! I will always follow your directions and keep a good baseline of contact with you! I am not allowed to board pets in my apartment, but I will always be respectful of your space as well.

About: I've taking care of dog for a year plus now. My friends and family trust and relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and have their pets stay overnight at my house. My house is especially a good environment for dog because my yard is fenced and the dog have their own furniture and their own room. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom and a bake at home so I have plenty of time to play and walk your pet which I love doing. My yard is fenced and I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company while he/she is here. I have plenty of toys and treats available for the dogs as well.

About: Having grown up on a farm, I have been around dogs and other animals all of my life. I love all animals and have a special fondness for dogs. I will treat your dog like my own. Please let me know about any special needs your dog has, from dietary restrictions to behavioral concerns-I am very accommodating and will do my best to make the transition from your house to mine as seamless as possible and would like your help in understanding how best to do that for your dog. Please include the following in your care instructions and/or inquiry if they apply: - Food or environmental allergies - Toy or treat restrictions - Any history of destructive behavior - Any history of reactivity (such as barking/lunging on leash, guarding food or toys, or uncontrollable excitement) towards other animals or humans - Any history of separation anxiety - Any other special needs, likes or dislikes that I should be aware of I work from home much of the time during the week so am available for doggy daycare or boarding often during the week in addition to weekends. I am able to crate your pet if that is what they are used to for during the night. Please bring their crate with you and any other items they feel comfortable with while crated.

Some friends and neighbors have been having me stay and take care of their pets or drop in care for 10+ years. There’s nothing I love more than caring for pets! They give me the happiness that my loved ones do because they are “my loved ones too!” Some people say I’m a dog whisper. I live and breathe for my 2 dogs I currently have. Ages 10 and 12! I enjoy seeing them run, play, tail wag and smile! I’m home with them daily and talk to them as if they can understand ;) they are my Velcro babies and I wouldn’t have it any other way!! Let me know if you would like to meet up and we can get things rolling and I can be a help with whatever it is that you need to make sure your pets are well cared for, happy, loved and having fun. It’s like a mini vacation for the pets! :) I look forward to making your pets stay, walk, boarding, or any help I can be, comfortable, safe and loving! I am super Excited to give all my love for your fur baby and then some! I would love to and enjoy sending pictures and updates on my own and also anything that would help you know that your pet is having a fun time and well cared for! Can’t wait to chat and meet up and be your dog’s new friend!! I will love them like my own! :) I’m available most of the day to play with, feed, take out, or just some extra snuggle time! Evenings also! Don’t hesitate to reach out even if it’s for one little helping! I take care of our 2 dogs we have now during the day! But I’m looking for extra snuggles and putting that smile on your pets face as much as mine!! I would love to play with, take out, feed and love on your pet for 5 minutes or 1 hour! Very happy to do so! I’d love for your pet to feel loved and safe in my home with my babies , my two black labs who love everyone!! They bring me soo much happiness and joy!! I’m home always to be with them and adore and enjoy them!! 🩷

About: My mother Michele has retired from Rover and has handed me the reins so to speak. My name is Nikki, i grew up with all different kinds of animals and have volunteered with the humane society for many years. I specialize with helping feral/aggressive animals when i can find the time. My mother calls me the animal whisperer 😊 My husband Ben and i will take jobs together so we have some more flexibility. He also grew up with animals, he has specialized with training huskies in the past. We have an 11 year old daughter that loves to help play with animals. Even in youth she has had a lot of experience with animals and is very respectful and patient. One of her favorite activities is to exercise with animals, so occasionally if I am watching an animal that is good with kids and requires exercise, I will bring her along to join in the fun! (With your permission of course) We have have 3 fur babies of our own, Gypsy, Mila and Blu 😊 My husband and I work 8AM-4:30 Monday-Friday and have weekends off. We will need to schedule around our work during the week, but our weekends are usually open! I give all animals the amount of affection and time they need. An animal will tell you how much or little attention they would like, you can hear it through their reaction to you. Patience is always a must. I have taught my daughter this as well. You cannot properly care for an animal unless you understand their personality.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats, during all the stages of their lives, for many years. I've had dogs of various breeds with serious health conditions that required nearly constant monitoring, complex medication management, and frequent vet involvement. I have taken care of puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats, and pets at all stages in between. Providing loving care for pets has been a major focus of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom, so pet care pretty much is my routine! And since my husband works from home, I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry poopsies too 😊 I have two young adult standard poodles and a mini poodle puppy. They, like all of our dogs before them, live in our house as members of our family. They are crate trained and know basic commands for safety, but when they're not playing outside or on a walk, they can mostly be found lounging on couches or beds (mostly ours, sometimes theirs). I've also been a dedicated sitter for my sister's cats for almost 20 years. I've cared for kittens to seniors in that time, and seen to all their needs.

About: I am a college student athlete at UWSP & I have a lot of free time on my hands between classes where I would love to walk & take care of your precious pup! I’ve grown up taking care of my neighbors dogs & my own dog back home (I have a golden retriever & I love her so dearly) I’m available on Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays currently! The open times between my class & practice schedule are monday & wednesdays 11 am - 1 pm & 4 - 8 pm. tuesday & thursdays 11 am - 12 pm, 3 - 4 pm, & 6 - 8 pm! My schedule will change once my hockey season starts. My walking routes are generally in neighborhoods with quieter streets, so it creates less stress and more safety for the dog. I normally end the walk by finding a park or a large grassy area to play with the dog and give them more exercise. If the dog needs extra care to stay & hang out longer, I have a grassy front & backyard with a long leash attached to the house. My dog has visited my college house before & has loved every minute because my roommates are also big dog lovers!

About: I would take my dog out for walks everyday since I was 13 and would make sure she was cared for, played with, and properly groomed I am currently working two jobs part-time, but I am often available to walk dogs (morning, day or afternoon) or cat-sit in my free time. In my home, we make sure our cats are fed at least twice a day and we scoop their litter everyday. When we had my senior dog, we would let her outside often to get some exercise and would bathe her at least once a month when she got dirty.

About: I had my first pet sitting experience when I was 13 years old, not including the family pet. I have cared for animals of all shapes and sizes since then. I love working with animals and learning about their personalities. I am okay with reactive animals and have worked with different ones. I am willing to work with your animal's needs in any way, including medication and certain training exercises that you request. I do not work a job at this time, but I fill my time with odd jobs for others while I wait for college to start back up in the fall! I like to stay busy and do anything from pet care, to shopping for others, to day care for family members! With that being said, my schedule is pretty flexible, especially with advanced notice! I will follow any instructions given and am always ready to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of. I will do whatever your pet needs to stay happy and healthy.

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.

About: I have had dogs my entire life I have taken care of dogs in the past as well as I have four dogs of my own right now. I have the privilege of fostering through our pack animal rescue Inc and have saved 81 dogs. With that process I have had dogs that are dominant submissive some dogs that are high energy some dogs that are extremely scared and timid some dogs that do not get well with other dogs or do not get well with cats. We have worked with them trained Incorporated them into the pack. I feel that fostering has helped me grow and learned different breeds and personalities and ages. I have a such a passion for dogs I've loved them I love everything about them and I'm very amazed by your personality and instincts. As of right now I am home. I am a mom to 5 kids, 4 dogs, and two cats. I Foster through our pack animal rescue so I always have extra dogs in the house as well. There will be plenty of time for exercise and socialization if that is something you were looking for. My evenings are the busiest due to my kids being involved in things. Most weekends I am available as well. I have a fenced in yard. I am capable of separating dogs if need be I have space for kennels if that is what you choose. My dogs have been around others and are used to sharing their space due to fostering. I go for walks daily I am able to handle multiple dogs at a time as well. Just like our fosters when we have a dog in our home we respect its boundaries and also give them all the love that they deserve. This of course as well goes into play if not at my house if at client's house. As I do have a husband and five children I will be the only one managing feeding letting out and any other things that was specifically for your dog. This would be for the safety of everyone and for the responsibility and liability of me.
