“Laura took wonderful care of our Moose! She went above and beyond what I had hoped for. He got to sleep with her kids, play with her dogs, go for walks, and I received lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!! She also wrote up a little summary of his stay at the end, noting some of my dog’s behaviors that I will be addressing with a dog trainer, which I hadn’t observed before and was glad to know about! I appreciate Laura and her family very much.”
“Devin, Brad, and Livie were so welcoming to our Hallie! Hallie is a rather anxious and cautious dog. This was the longest that we have left her not with family. She warmed up to them quickly and had a great visit! They went for walks and a hike and Hallie was very comfortable here. Thanks so much!”
“Jenny was phenomenal. She’s very flexible on times of pick up and drop off. She sent multiple pictures of Wiley having fun running around and playing. He was more energetic on pick up and even seemed as if he wished to stay longer. Both of her dogs were playful and accepted Wiley into their home with out any issues. Both Wiley and I are extremely pleased with this experience, and can’t wait until the next time Jenny can watch him again when I need to be out of town.”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“10/10 ! Experience was overall great ! Communication was great and She responded so fast while I was out of town trying to find a sitter . Her family was so welcoming and friendly! Me and my boyfriend knew our 10 mo puppy was in great hands. It was a great choice! Definitely will be my go to when I need a sitter !! Thanks so much again !”
“My dog stayed for an extended weekend and came home happy, healthy and tired from all the playing. Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future.”

“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Janelle and Chris were incredible to our two dogs. We have a red healer/aussie mix young dog with a lot of energy that we get nervous to leave behind. But Janelle and Chris made us feel at ease with their experience with caring for dogs and their daily updates on how our dogs were doing. We will definitely be using them in the future! Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is my wide range of hands-on experience caring for pets with all kinds of needs, personalities, and ages. I’ve worked with young dogs, senior dogs, medium and large breeds, tiny dogs, blind cats, and multi-pet households—and I’m confident handling just about any situation. I’ve cared for 1–3 dogs at a time, 2–5 cats, and households with both dogs and cats together, making me comfortable managing different temperaments and routines at once. I’m also experienced with pets in heat, pets requiring extra patience, and animals who need gentle guidance or special attention. Above all, I’m calm, responsible, and detail-oriented. I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and loved—whether it’s through slow introductions, careful monitoring, maintaining routines, or giving them the extra comfort they need. I am currently enrolled in college at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I have access to a car, so I have the ability to travel to get to jobs. I have frequent breaks throughout my days and nights, and weekends are open. I also have the ability to stay overnight if needed or desired. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and currently have two cats and two dogs back home, so I’m very comfortable providing consistent, loving, and attentive care. I also participate in the Doggy Day Out program through the Coulee Region Humane Society, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. In addition, I frequently help care for friends’ cats, giving me experience with a variety of feline personalities and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable. This includes following feeding schedules, providing plenty of exercise, giving treats (if allowed), cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and offering lots of affection and companionship. I always make sure the home stays clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos. My approach is calm, reliable, and detail-oriented—I make sure every pet feels cared for, understood, and stress-free while you’re away.
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”

About: Hello! I’m Laura, and I’m so excited to welcome your four-legged family member into my heart and home. Having grown up with dogs and raised three of my own beloved pups through to their golden years, I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets—they are cherished family members. Now that my home is a bit quieter, I have a wealth of love, patience, and attention to share with your dog while you are away. Why Choose Me? Lifetime of Experience: I have over 40 years of experience living with and caring for dogs. Senior Dog Care: Having loved three dogs through their entire lives, I am highly comfortable with senior care, gentle pacing, and keeping strict medication and feeding schedules. A Safe, Loving Environment: Your dog will get my full attention, plenty of belly rubs, and a calm, reliable routine that mirrors the comfort they have at home. Whether your pup is an energetic walker or a professional couch cuddler, I adapt to their unique personality and needs. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend and give you peace of mind knowing they are in safe, loving hands! My daily and weekly schedule is very consistent, which makes it easy to provide a reliable, stress-free routine for your dog. During the week, my schedule allows me to easily plan my day around a dog's needs. I am always home for dedicated morning, late afternoon, and evening care. Because my routine is highly structured, I can guarantee regular potty breaks, timely feedings, and medication administration on a strict schedule. My late afternoons, evenings, and weekends are wide open and entirely dedicated to pet care. Whether that means going for relaxed neighborhood walks, playing in the yard, or just offering quiet companionship on the couch, your dog will be a central part of my day. I treat guest dogs like family, fitting them seamlessly into a warm, attentive, and loving daily routine. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether a dog is staying with me or I am visiting them in their own home. Having raised three dogs of my own, I know how important a secure and predictable environment is for a pet's peace of mind. In My Home: I maintain a calm, dog-friendly, and completely smoke-free environment. Before any stay, I do a thorough safety sweep to ensure all hazards, cords, or human foods are securely out of reach. Dogs in my care are supervised closely, and I follow a strict double-check policy on all doors and gates when entering or exiting. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it secure, clean, and exactly as you left it. During visits or house sits, I stick closely to your security routines (locking doors, arming alarms) and ensure your dog is safely secured inside before I leave. My Care Philosophy: Tailored to the Dog: I strictly adhere to your specific rules regarding furniture, feeding schedules, and crate training to keep their routine seamless. On-Leash Safety: I always keep dogs securely on-leash during walks and remain highly alert to our surroundings and other animals. Constant Communication: I love sending daily photo updates so you can see firsthand how happy, relaxed, and safe your pup is!

“Rhonda was kind, communicative and attentive to our kitties! She and her husband went above and beyond to ensure our stubborn cat received his daily medication and gave lots of love and attention to our other affectionate little guy. They made being away much easier on us!”
“Christine did a great job of dropping in on our two cats and making sure they were taken care of an comfortable! I had full confidence in her punctuality and ability to administer a supplement to our senior cat. Furthermore, she was flexible with an additional, last-minute drop-in booking to assist when other arrangements fell through. I cannot recommend her highly enough, and would definitely book her again care for our pets if the need arises!”
About: am a cat owner myself and currently care for two cats with very different personalities and needs. I understand that cats thrive on routine, familiar surroundings, and patient care. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, playtime, companionship, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I will respect their unique personality and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“We are so grateful to have Araya around to watch our boy for us! She takes the best pictures of him which is always so nice when we’re away. We’ve booked with her multiple times now and are always happy!”
About: I’ve always had a dog in my home and help cared for them since I was born. I’ve helped raised puppies and cared for senior dogs! Back home for college without an internship so I have almost the entirety of July and the beginning of August off to house and pet sit! I can’t keep your pets at my house but I love playing and going on walks but I’m also happy to care for more mellow or elderly dogs!
“Sara did a great job with our boys. Theo's shots (diabetic) can be a bit intimidating, at first, and she handled them beautifully. In addition, Louie is quite wary of new people and by mid-week his photos show that he's comfortable enough to come out and supervise what she was doing. We'll undoubtedly be booking future visits and would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who's looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: I have been caring for animals for several years now and can't get enough of it. Animals have a special place in my heart because of how genuine they are. I've never been more loved than by a dog and never experienced more truth than from a cat! I am available all day every day to look after your pets. My schedule is very flexible and easily accommodating. I've got all the time in the world to hang out and give attention to your pets! Any pet that walks in my house gets plenty of love and affection. This extends to pets I'm looking after in other locations as well. I have no shortage of love for animals!
About: I have been around dogs since I can remember, and absolutely adore them. I have a big baby of a German shepherd and two cats at home! This summer I am hoping to walk a dog 2-3 times a week during my lunch breaks! I work in La Crosse, I would walk the dog for about 30min if not longer if need be. I can be flexible depending on my work week! I have a German shepherd at home and 2 cats, I am familiar with dealing with high energy dogs. I am not able to board dogs( as much as I would love to ) with already 3 animals at home!
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. Ive dealt with multiple dogs at once, all with different personalities. From shy, energetic, to reactive. I have done everything from daily walks, to overnight stays for clients. Handling the different routines. Another plus is that I grew up fostering dogs, so I have experience with a lot of different breeds creating a very patient and observant demeanor. I am currently working part-time and looking for some extra work. My availability is pretty flexible as long as you are as well! I can either do stop by's for walks once a day, or a multiple day care schedule, with 2-4 hours of being out of the house. I'd love to chat and work something out! When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, walk times, medications, crate routines, and any house rules. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of bathroom breaks, and safe, supervised time outside. I spend quality time with each pet, whether that means playing, training practice, gentle cuddles, or just giving them company so they don’t feel alone. It is all about respect and I respect your home also respect your home, treating your space the same way I’d want mine treated.
About: I have extensive experience, caring for cats of all personalities. I understand cat body language and always respect their boundaries. i’m comfortable with shy, anxious, or independent cats and give them the space they need to feel safe. I focus on routines that matter to cats, including feeding, litter, box, care, playtime, and quiet time. I don’t force interactions. Cats are allowed to warm up naturally, and feel comfortable at their own pace. Period with years of personal experience, owning and caring for cats, I know how to provide patient, loving care that keeps them happy and stress-free.
“Ajia was wonderful! We love her! She sent updates and pictures. She followed our instructions and requests. She did exactly what we wanted and more. We will definitely ask her back. She’s our new cat sitter. 🐱”
About: Growing up with two dogs and a kitten sparked my lifelong love for animals. While I’m not yet in a position to adopt a pet of my own, my partner and I both grew up surrounded by furry friends and deeply miss the snuggles, walks, and unconditional love we shared with them back in our hometown. Caring for your pets would be a wonderful way for us to fill that space and share our love for animals! My partner and I both work full-time in professional roles Monday through Friday, but my workplace is conveniently close to home. This allows me the flexibility to take lunches and breaks as needed, ensuring I can meet your pet care needs with reliability and attention. I currently don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I live in a pet-friendly home with a backyard (unfenced) and easy access to nearby trails for walks, if that’s something your pet enjoys. I’m very relaxed when it comes to pet preferences—pets are welcome on furniture and even in bed with me! I’m happy to be flexible and follow your specific directions to ensure your pet feels right at home.
“Olivia was amazing. She took care of my 2 cats and made sure that Stormy, who is a bit shy ate every day even if it meant feeding him in weird spots. She gave Sunny plenty of attention! And towards the end I think even Stormy loved her!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have taken care of them since I was young! I love them way more than people. I am counting down till I can have my own little pack of dogs. I’m used to dogs that pull on leashes, but it’s a plus when they’re an easy walker :) I currently am in college so whenever I don’t have classes I am completely free! Once a month for one weekend I work on a military base, but other than that I would love to spend my time with a pup! I am willing to do whatever to keep your dog’s routine normal. I am used to crate training, routine dog walks, etc. No judgement from me :)

“Ambrosius had a lot of fun with her walks and doggy play! She came home and slept amazing. She was very happy and even got so comfortable she took a nap (rare for her at others houses). Thank you so much for making my puppy happy and feel loved.”
“He took care of our 4 legs kids for first time. Taking care of old dog and young dog are not easy , especially at first time till they get used to with new environment and new friends. I think he did a good job. He send me one picture and gave me status of feeding. If we need to give him least opinion, that will be yard need to be picks up little.”
“Angela was excellent with my dog, Vaida! Vaida struggles adjusting to new surroundings, but Angela was a pro with her. Angela provided consistent communication & I was able to stay updated throughout the week. It was great to know Vaida was in good hands.”

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous but my overall experience was positive with AJ. We have a 1 year old mixed breed dog that is very playful and happy around pretty much everyone. We met in a park near AJ’s home and he was promptly on time and communicated well. I asked several questions about the plan for the day and everything seemed reasonable to me. For me personally I just wanted someone that would keep my dog active and happy for the afternoon, also sneak in the occasional nap is okay too. When the day was over we met in the park again and (on time) and my dog was happy to see me. Thumbs up!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience working with Laura. She was quick to respond and it was easy coordinating our visits with her. The updates she provided gave us peace of mind that our dog Jordy was in good hands for the day. We would definitely work with her again in the future! Jordy seemed happy to spend the day with her in her home.”
About: I have always had pets in my home my whole life both dogs and cats I am more of a dog person but I absolutely love caring for all animals and I know how difficult it can be depending on the animal my parents most recent dog was a handful he was in and out of several homes before finding his way to ours because of he’s very energetic and sometimes violent behavior but we turned him to a sweetie with time and good training. At first he was rather aggressive towards me and was very difficult to train because of how long he had gone without training which taught me a lot of tricks to deal with a difficult and aggressive dog. I love this job and I hope your pet will enjoy my company as much as I’ll enjoy theirs. I have bathed dogs helped bathe a cat with flees and I’m down to learn anything if you’ll help show me. I do this full time so I am usually always free to offer the most reliable and consistent pet care experience for your pet and I’m always available unless I’m watching other pets. I’d love to do repeat visits to build a better relationship with you and your pet. I do the absolute best of my ability to ensure that your dog feels safe and happy when with me and I hope after meeting me you’re pet is excited to see me again.
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. Growing up my family had a small hobby farm where we cared for many animals. Since moving out I have owned and helped train multiple working dogs, including the pointer I have now. I have no problem administering medications if needed.

Your dog will always have someone around if they like constant attention! I live in a house with a large, mostly fenced in backyard. My dog has never met someone he doesn't love, and will run/play until he can't stand anymore! Plenty of room for exercise and play!

I will play and treat your pets as my own!
About: At one time, we were breeders of Champion Golden Retrievers, and have raised many a pup, from small to large breeds. From Bernese to Yorkies, we love them all! Our furbabies are a Shorkie and Shih Tzu who are well behaved and make great hosts and playmates! Large pastures and trails on which to walk, so lots of exercise. Our canine guests will receive lots of love and attention! They will be welcome in our house if well-behaved, and treated like one of the family during their stay. We have excellent references from previous guests and do our best to make sure our every guest feels right at home. We follow all care guides given by our guests owners, including giving meds and treats as owner provides us. I or my husband are home with our guest dogs during stays. Our guests get lots of attention and care. We want to care for them as they are used to being cared for at home. We have a fenced yard. We back up to mikes of hiking trails for walks and runs always on leash. We walk 3-4 times a day or as often as match the home life of our guests. They are cared for in our home and integrated into being cared for as part of our family with 2 little welcoming fur babies.

I treat every dog I watch as one of my own :)
About: Growing up with a variety of animals really gave me the compassion and love I have for animals now. Also, it gave me the skill I need to be able to take care of and provide for the different species of animals there are out there. Mostly, it was dogs and cats but I do have experience in caring for hamsters and bunnies. I love to go walking/hiking just to be outside and getting fresh air so i have no problem going on walks. I’m completely comfortable with our furry friends being on my furniture, I know not everybody is but mi casa es su casa. I am a veterinarian technician with my A.A.S. degree and I plan to open up my own business one day whether it be a dog boarding place of my own or my very own shelter/rescue. Either way, this is my 5-10 year goal and his will help me achieve that. I work full time throughout the week. My evenings are available & so are most of my weekends. This month of August will be busy for me on the weekends though. I make sure they are comfortable & I treat them as if they are my own. I make sure they are happy while their person is gone.

“We were so happy that Natalia could come and walk our dog for us! He loved visiting with her and getting all of her love. She was very attentive and listened to anything that we asked. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Michael is exactly what his profile describes. I appreciated him taking time for a meet and greet prior to the scheduled walks. He was sensitive to the particular personalities of my senior pups and was even able to get the temperamental one out on the leash : ) ⭐️ Thank you for such great care, Michael!”
About: Until college, I had never lived in a home without a dog. And from a young age, I was taught everything I need to know about caring for them. Between my parents, we currently have five dogs, a cat, and four guinea pigs. My siblings and I have been working hard for years to care for our fur-babies, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I have work every weekday from 8am to 5pm, so I can’t work on weekdays, but I am completely free on weekends to care for your pup! During weekdays, my schedule limits my communication, which is why I offer same day booking and cancellation for the weekends! I can’t imagine a better way to spend my Saturday and Sunday! Back home, I care for all five dogs differently, based on their breed and personality. Our oldest mutt needs constant brushing, our golden retriever needs weekly shaving, our terrier needs to be leashed when outside, our labrador needs her thunder shirt for storms, and our chihuahua needs training to be friendlier to guests. I am prepared for all kinds of pups!
About: Hi! My name is Angela, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets in their own homes and believe that remaining in a familiar environment helps reduce stress and anxiety for many animals. I’ve previously provided overnight pet sitting for multiple clients and enjoy creating a calm, consistent routine that keeps pets happy while their families are away. As a healthcare professional, reliability, communication, and attention to detail are a big part of who I am. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, feeding schedules, or simply companionship, I will treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own pets. I am the proud owner of two cats and understand that every animal has their own personality, preferences, and needs. I enjoy spending quality time with both dogs and cats and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I am available for weekend house sitting and pet care. If you are located in Viroqua or La Crosse, I may also be available for weekday house sitting and pet care. When caring for your pets, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are well cared for. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes because I believe pets are happiest and most relaxed in their familiar environment. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and preferences. As a healthcare professional, I value reliability, attention to detail, and clear communication. My goal is to provide safe, compassionate care while treating your home and pets with the utmost respect.

As a stay at home mom I have a completely open schedule and would love to help you whether that be daily walks with your furry friends, drops in for play time and snuggles, or even watching them at our home if you need some time away! I am comfortable administering medications and working on any commands you prefer while walking and dropping in. I like to schedule a meet and greet before any pet sitting or walking to go over any safety concerns, meet your pet and build trust. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! Send me a booking request and we can get some dates in the books whenever you need! I am a stay at home mom with unlimited availability! I am free for walks and drop in’s daily. As well as overnights on request (both cats and dogs) after a meet and greet with my animals as well! I have a half acre fenced in yard for your pups to play in! I have 3 pups of my own that LOVE to play and fetch and will get lots of energy out of your dog if they stay the night. I have crate space as well if your pup is crate trained!
About: I have always grown up with a dog and find them to be a lot of fun! I would love to bring a dog along for evening walks or stop in to check on them. I have experience caring for dogs to make sure they are taken care of for the weekend. I am a college student and my schedule this summer will be fairly flexible. I am free most evenings and normally throughout the day as well. I have a lot of experience in others peoples homes, as I babysit and have dog sat for numerous families in my community. I will be respectful and responsible if entering your home and when taking care of your furry family member.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My family has always been full of pet lovers and our home has always welcomed animals of all shapes and sizes. Growing up,I learned how to care for pets kindly, patiently, and responsibly. I currently have a cat of my own, and she truly is my pride and joy. I also regularly care for the pets of friends, coworkers, and family members when they’re out of town or need extra help. I’m a huge animal lover and have a very soft spot for pets. I truly care deeply about their well-being. I’m especially attentive to making sure animals feel safe, comfortable and loved. I would love to provide that same level of care and peace of mind for you and your pets! I work full-time, but have the option to work from home whenever needed, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m especially available after 4 PM, but I’m happy to make other times work as well. I can bring my work computer with me if needed and take breaks as I please, so I’m able to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Your pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow care instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and stress-free. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any special needs they may have. My home is calm, clean, and pet friendly. I make sure doors and windows are secured, remove any potential hazards, and provide plenty of space for pets to relax and feel at home. I’m very attentive during walks and outings and always use leashes, unless otherwise instructed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and worked hard to build trust so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident in my care.
About: Current doggy daycare employee. I have owned animals all my life. Dogs have always been a passion of mine. I have recently been accepted to a dog trainer school to become a professional dog trainer. I am hoping to get to have as much experience with as many dogs as possible, to make me the best trainer possible. I am available anytime. I work part time from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. If you have any questions on my availability please ask. Thank you! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I will follow all of the rules and guidelines you set for your animals feeding time and playtime. Plus I will make the experience for the animal as best as it can possibly be.
About: I’ve gotten a lot of practice in dog sitting with 2 different roommates I lived with who had dogs, whether it only be an overnight of caring for them or an entire trip’s worth time. And I really bonded with both dogs! I just love animals in general too and am looking forward to caring for more furry friends now that I don’t live with one anymore! Over the summer I work one part time job so I should have availability for visiting them either morning or evening or both. Sometimes I will have daytime availability as well. I enjoy a semi active lifestyle, so I would be very open to getting outdoors with your pet too! During the school year I work 2 jobs, so my flexibility may be a little more limited come fall, but I should still have some availability. Happy to try to work things out with scheduling! When I have lived with pets, I do like to provide them with lots of love and make sure I can balance my schedule to at least spend a little time with them each day. I make sure they are able to get outside and exercise if they and their owners wish.
About: I have 7 years of experience volunteering at a cat shelter, caring for kittens, senior cats, and cats of all ages and personalities. At home, I care for 6 cats and 1 dog, giving me hands on experience with everything from playful energy to senior care and multi-pet households. I am currently home for the summer, so I have plenty of time to care for your precious pets! I have flexible hours and am able to work around your schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. In clients’ homes, I respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself by following all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and any special care needs. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, making sure they feel secure while their owners are away.

“Devin, Brad, and Livie were so welcoming to our Hallie! Hallie is a rather anxious and cautious dog. This was the longest that we have left her not with family. She warmed up to them quickly and had a great visit! They went for walks and a hike and Hallie was very comfortable here. Thanks so much!”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“10/10 ! Experience was overall great ! Communication was great and She responded so fast while I was out of town trying to find a sitter . Her family was so welcoming and friendly! Me and my boyfriend knew our 10 mo puppy was in great hands. It was a great choice! Definitely will be my go to when I need a sitter !! Thanks so much again !”
“My dog stayed for an extended weekend and came home happy, healthy and tired from all the playing. Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future.”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Janelle and Chris were incredible to our two dogs. We have a red healer/aussie mix young dog with a lot of energy that we get nervous to leave behind. But Janelle and Chris made us feel at ease with their experience with caring for dogs and their daily updates on how our dogs were doing. We will definitely be using them in the future! Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is my wide range of hands-on experience caring for pets with all kinds of needs, personalities, and ages. I’ve worked with young dogs, senior dogs, medium and large breeds, tiny dogs, blind cats, and multi-pet households—and I’m confident handling just about any situation. I’ve cared for 1–3 dogs at a time, 2–5 cats, and households with both dogs and cats together, making me comfortable managing different temperaments and routines at once. I’m also experienced with pets in heat, pets requiring extra patience, and animals who need gentle guidance or special attention. Above all, I’m calm, responsible, and detail-oriented. I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and loved—whether it’s through slow introductions, careful monitoring, maintaining routines, or giving them the extra comfort they need. I am currently enrolled in college at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I have access to a car, so I have the ability to travel to get to jobs. I have frequent breaks throughout my days and nights, and weekends are open. I also have the ability to stay overnight if needed or desired. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and currently have two cats and two dogs back home, so I’m very comfortable providing consistent, loving, and attentive care. I also participate in the Doggy Day Out program through the Coulee Region Humane Society, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. In addition, I frequently help care for friends’ cats, giving me experience with a variety of feline personalities and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable. This includes following feeding schedules, providing plenty of exercise, giving treats (if allowed), cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and offering lots of affection and companionship. I always make sure the home stays clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos. My approach is calm, reliable, and detail-oriented—I make sure every pet feels cared for, understood, and stress-free while you’re away.
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve pet sit for many friends and many different animals. I am reliable to feed, walk, and potty your animals. I’m comfortable around all animals. I’ve grown up having pets and adore all pets. I am available most days for intermittent care for pets during the week. My work schedule is consistent, 9:30-630 Monday-Friday during the summer and 12-6:30 during the school year. I am a student at UWL so I have classes but normally am able to create a schedule with you around them fairly easy. I have grown up with a very active family because we have always had very active dog breeds, I love taking them for walks/runs and would love to do the same for your pet. I have no problems staying in and playing with toys as well if that’s what your pet prefers. I also have grown up with cats and am willing to care for them as well.
