“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!!!”

“Bethany watched Hazel for a brief overnight stay. Bethany was very engaged and knowledgeable. I am very confident with Hazel in her care. I hope to be able to use her services again.”

“Gabriella was fantastic to work with, very professional, kind and extremely accommodating with our needs while visiting Minocqua. Cooper is looking forward to his next visit in 2016! Thank you Gabriella!!!”

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.
“Catherine took excellent care of our two dogs in her dog-friendly home. We received several updates and photos throughout their stay. She even makes her own food for the dogs under her care. Couldn't be more pleased!”

“Andrea is a thoughtful, caring sitter who provides regular updates and photos . She responds quickly to messages. She has a nice, fenced backyard. We will be having her care for our dog again soon!”

“Shawn and Joey were great! They were flexible with drop off and pickup times, sent a daily photo and took Cooper for walks. He seemed to enjoy himself and the company of their dog and was wore out when we got him home!”

“Taylor really went the extra mile with my pup! He’s was so happy and well when I picked him up. I was told he was wonderful with her even with the heavy pulling on the leash whilst walking! LOL! 10/10 would have Taylor watch my dog again, if she’ll have him!!”

About: I’ve taken care of rabbits, fish, hedgehogs, cats, dogs, and guinea pigs. I’ve done so for friends, family, neighbors, and mutual friends. I care for each pet like they’re someone’s baby, because they are! I currently work 8-4, but have a very flexible schedule. I can care for pets at almost any time of the day, and would love to play with your pets! I have one friendly dog who loves to go for walks or run in the field across the street. Our yard is not fenced in, but I have a very sturdy lead they can run on. We have tons of toys, and dogs are allowed on any furniture unless you specify otherwise. I have a crate and room for others if you provide your own.
“Kara and Ben have a beautiful, kind, and loving family. They welcomed my high energy puppy girl into their home, and she clearly had fun playing with their dog and kids for many days while I was in the hospital. I get the sense that they want their kids to experience different pets for the learning experience, which is very cool I think. They seem to enjoy the experience overall, which made it so comfortable for me. Thanks so much!”

“Our dog instantly connected with Craig and it was so comforting. I could tell from the pictures he sent that Bops was having a blast. When I picked him up he was so happily tuckered out from all the play time that he slept really well. We 100% recommend Craig.”

About: Hello! My name is Elicia and I have been around animals my entire life. I currently have 3 dogs (4 including my husband 😂) Doug, Cooper and Nala. I love to spend time with animals, and know the struggle of finding someone trust worthy to take care of your kids! I have great references, and am pretty flexible when it comes to the needs and care of you and your pets. I promise to love on them and treat them as if they were my own, no matter how big or how small! I am also open to discussing payment options as well - I am here to work with you and your babies! Looking forward to chatting with you! I have a full time job, 7a-4p Monday - Friday in Wausau. I have the option to work from home 1 day a week if needed, but cannot work from home on Mondays or Fridays. If you’re located close enough to my employer I can let your pets out at lunch! I currently have no restrictions when it comes to caring for pets. I have cared for puppies all the way to elderly dogs. I have no allergies, so nothing to worry about there! I can take them for walks, to the dog park, and am willing to do everything I can to keep them on their schedule and stress free!
“Becky was great with Ellie! Took her for walks. Ellie got along great with Becky’s pets. They are best buddies now. Becky sent pictures and updates everyday which I looked forward to seeing. I will definitely use Becky as a pet sitter again. 🐾❤️”

“Solia was incredible with our pups! We had a weekend trip planned and one of our dogs has seizures which requires daily medications. We felt very comfortable and reassured knowing that Solia is a vet tech and was able to help us with medication administration and what to do if our pup has a seizure. Not only did she take excellent care of our dogs, but she gave us updates and pictures throughout our trip. I highly suggest Solia to anyone and everyone, she is amazing!”

“Autumn was able to take my dog in incredibly last minute when the other scheduled sitter cancelled at the time of drop off and I needed to head to get a surgery! She took great care of my 90+ pound pup who made best friends with her dog.”

“Eleanor loved staying with Laurie again. She takes wonderful care of dogs and sends pictures/updates! I can tell that she really cares about the animals when they are staying with her and wants them to be so comfortable…Thank you again!”

“Brittany is wonderful. Our boys loved her and we appreciated the pics so much. We will be asking Brittany back to check in on our boys again our next trip. Thank you Brittany!!”

“Annette always left a photo and a comment at each drop in visit. The cat room was clean when I returned home. I know she had to travel on some snowy roads to do the visit. I appreciate her help and will ask for her help in the future.”


“Katie did a fantastic job of watching our cats. When I was looking for someone to check on them I saw a lot of people willing to watch dogs, but not cats. Letting someone into your space when you are not home is not the easiest feeling. However, Katie is trustworthy and reliable. We received pictures of our critters, which made us feel they were being taken care of. Thank you, Katie for your caring approach!”


“Debora was here today for her first drop-in visit. She was prompt and sent a couple pics as requested. She also left a note for me on how the visit went. My pup and her hit it off great at the meet and greet.”


“Lina is absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my cat and kept me updated with photos and videos during each visit. I would recommend Lina to anyone, she is reliable, kind, and a true animal lover!”

“Summer took the time to stop by and meet us and our cats before we left for our trip. We enjoyed the daily updates and photos. She even got our shy cat to open up to her. We would gladly use her services again.”


About: I am very new to being a cat lover ever since I met and fell in love with my own cat, Leif. Ever since I have been volunteering at the humane society I got him from and enjoy helping out the medical team with sometimes the most feral or sick cats that come in. I understand that each cat has a different personality and I have been able to see a lot of them. No matter your cat’s personality I will be able to give them space or give them cuddles while you are away!

About: I love cats though I have never owned one…yet! I love going to the cat cafe to see and play with the cats and I have always been around cats through friends and family. My husband has grown up with cats. His childhood cat is currently 18!
“Craig helped me out short notice and kept my cat for the day while my landlord did some work on my house. He sent lots of pictures and make me feel so much better knowing she was in good hands. 10/10 recommend!!”

“Isabel did an amazing job taking care of my cat! She clearly loved caring for her and provided me detailed updates after each visit. She was also super flexible when I added a day onto my vacation.”

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.

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.
“Becky is everything you could hope for from a pet sitter. We were in her area for a funeral and left our dog with her for the day. The experience was great. Her communication was excellent, she has a gorgeous dog-friendly neighborhood and home, and she took excellent care of our dog. She and her kids returned him to us happy and tired, which is no small feat. I would go far out of my way to leave our dog with Becky again. Thanks so much!”

“Brittany was highly professional and so excited to walk my dog. Duchess was so tuckered out after she promptly laid down for a nap! 10/10 would highly recommend. Will definitely use her again!”

About: Hi, thanks for checking out my profile :) I've been an animal lover my whole life! I've loved and cared for cat and dog breeds of all ages and sizes, starting at age 12 when my piano instructor hired me to house sit her two large dogs and two senior cats. I'm experienced in bathing & nail trimming and have no problem sitting on the floor patiently brushing out cockleburs for an hour. I've had long and short hair cats, and have experience providing specific meal requirements and special accommodations, as well as administering medicine and insulin shots. I believe pets are an extension of the family and should be treated just as warmly <3 Pet safety is super important to me - I will fully respect and honor a client's wishes for whatever they need in terms of puppy proofing, crate use, off limit areas, dietary restrictions, human and other animal interactions, etc. I'm always trying to learn more about specific breeds and their traits so I can provide the best love and attention possible.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, and even a donkey! With two cats of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I’m patient, experienced, and happy to help teach basics to puppies and kittens or even adult pets if needed. As a housewife with flexible availability, I can provide attentive, loving care tailored to your pet’s needs. As a housewife with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to spend with my own cats and any pets I’m caring for. While I occasionally work from home part-time, pet care always fits perfectly into my daily routine. I’m committed to providing your pet with the attention and love they need, whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just relaxing together. Let me know if you need any adjustments! I have a spacious yard where dogs can enjoy their own private space. My two cats are very friendly with other animals, but if there’s ever a dog or cat that doesn’t get along with them, I have separate areas to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. I provide plenty of love, attention, and flexibility to accommodate each pet’s needs, making sure they feel right at home.
“Gabby is great with my enthusiastic pups and they really enjoy their walks with her. She goes above and beyond and even cleaned up a puppy accident when Mojo had a bad belly. You will be very happy with the care she gives to your pets!!!”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. Even had mini pigs growing up. I am here to help take care of your family's needs for any occasion!

About: I have always had pets in my life. From rescued dogs I would fine abandoned on the side of the road to horses who were about to be euthanized by our local rancher. Cats, kittens, puppies and adult senior dogs always have a place in my heart and home. I am an adopter and rescuer. I would love to help you with potty breaks to walks. Feeding to medication administration. Let me know what you need help with and I’ll be there. I’m currently looking to help pet owners as I have been in situations where I needed help with drop ins for potty breaks to needing someone to walk my dog while I was at work. I’m familiar and comfortable with doing all of the above along with giving oral or topical medication. I’m recently retired and would love to spend time helping out. I am very familiar with dogs and cats and all that goes along with making sure they’re comfortable and well taken care of care of.
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals from dogs & cats, to cattle & horses. For dogs, I've had labradors trained as family dogs, and as bird hunting dogs. I've had several house cats with varying personalities. I have been caring for my own pets for 8 years, and have been house and pet sitting for others for 3. I've administered oral medications, worked with high energy dogs, elderly dogs, and handicapped cats. I have worked with foster dogs, and trained working dogs. If you are interested in my services surrounding animals besides dogs & cats, let's talk! I am currently a college student and involved in a couple clubs on campus. I'm free most evenings for overnights, and typically have frequent breaks in my day that allow me to let dogs out or walk them. I am comfortable with a variety of training/pet ownership styles, ranging from kenneled dogs following strict rules, to those used to having rule of the house. I work to respect the current training styles as to not disrupt predetermined expectations for animals. I have worked with a wide range of pet ownership styles and can adapt to meet the routines of the animals, from feeding and walking, to rules surrounding furniture and socialization. I work to keep your animals as comfortable and happy as possible.

I’m comfortable with helping with medications, potty breaks, feeding, litter box changes, walks, playtime and so much more! I’m local to the Stevens Point area and have a flexible career that allows me to help out as needed. I’d love nothing more than to see and love on more animals throughout my week! I’m thorough and respectful and want to make sure that you’re getting the BEST care possible for your fur family. I’ll love your pets as I love my own. Happy to send photos and video updates for peace of mind!

About: I grew up on a farm so I have plenty of experience with a variety of animals! I was also the Columbia County Dog Training President and trained dogs through my 4-H group for 10 years as I have always had a passion for animals. I have a history with dogs, cats, farm animals, and nearly all small pets (fluffy, feathered, or scales!). I have often taken in rescues in my life and pride myself in treating your pets as my own. Rates are negotiable depending on service needed and distance. At this moment I do not do over night stays as my own animals do not do well with me being gone all night and day. Currently I am working full time with kwik trip and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out to me if you have any questions regarding scheduling! I have knowledgeable leash handling skills for dog walking and have gone through dog fight safety training in the event a dog becomes reactive. With my large expanse of animal handling I am able to stay calm and collected if there were any issues or follow specific instructions from the owner. I am also experienced with handling animals as large as horses or as small as bugs! I treat your pets as special as my own, I am even working on a scrapbook! I follow instructions and boundaries thoroughly to give your family the best experience possible.
