“Hadyn was beyond incredible. Our sweet dog who is normally full of anxiety had none with her. She was fantastic in sending photos and videos with her updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. A+++”

“Val was a 5 star sitter and nothing less. She had so much patience and fun watching my deaf puppy. She fufilled his needs to the fullest. Was very current on updates and photos the whole time. Glad I have someone I trust to watch my fur baby when need be. Thank you Val!”

About: I have been relied on to care for friends, family, and neighbors pets since I was old enough to take responsibility. When I was 14, my helping of peoples pets started when I watched a family friends dog for 4 years during week days and occasional weekends. I worked at a doggie day care facility for 4 months at the end of 2021, doing all duties that go into caring for our furry friends. I went to college to get a degree as a Veterinary Technician for a year and a half. During the time of schooling I worked in a vet clinic and took on the job role as a kennel technician, helping out with anything and everything I could get my hands on. I dropped school because of personal and external obstacles but would love to go back in the future to finish. I only aim to please and never disappoint! Please choose me to be your pets new best friend! I'm currently working full time in Gilman WI, Mon-Thurs 630AM-4PM, Fri 630AM-1030AM. I am mostly available during weekends. The earlier you book with me, the better. I like to plan ahead. I try to be flexible and fit in your pet sitting needs! When caring for pets in a clients home, I am sure to make sure that I am careful when first meeting animals as I know it could be dangerous because of their protectiveness. I make sure to look over instructions twice, and double check that all to-dos are completed before leaving the clients home. I make sure to potty before I leave each time to avoid messes and make sure that they get exercise/attention during my time with them, as I know they feel down without someone home with them.
“Jill was fantastic all around! Banks loved spending time with her and it was a relief for us to enjoy our vacation. She was so accomodating on the timing of pickup and dropoff which again made traveling a breeze. We'll be using her again soon!”

About: I will walk dogs, take dogs for rides, give dogs baths, feed animals, play with them, and brush them. I will clean up accidents without a fuss. I can also n dispense medications. I do not clip nails. I get up at 4:00am. I work at 5:40 about an hour away so I have time in the morning to take animals out and give them morning routines. I will wake up earlier if I get multiple animals. I’m a morning person and don’t mind at all. I work until noon so I’m available then to do my next set of rounds. I don’t have anything structured other than dinner at 6:00 with my family and bedtime between 8:00-10:00. I can do more rounds in the evening. If you need over night, I can do that as well. I am originally from Green Bay so I do travel a bit so please schedule ahead if possible. If it’s a regular thing, I will make sure I give you enough notice when I will be out of town. I live with four adults, a dog, and two cats. I would love to bring animals in for boarding but not everyone agrees to that so I can house sit at your residence. I will clean up after the pets and myself but I am not your maid so the rest of your house will not be cleaned. If I become a regular and we develop a friendship, I could be swayed for extra cost.
About: I have had a dog since I was 8 years old. I am well experienced in walking, feeding, bathing, etc. dogs. I have never met a dog I haven’t liked and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. My dog is currently a senior dog so I am familiar with caring for older dogs. I am currently in graduate school so i have classes in the morning/afternoon but my evenings are very open to walk or care for your pets!! When caring in a clients home, I make sure to get clear instructions on how to efficiently care for their pet. I make sure I understand their schedule and follow it closely. I also make some time to let the pet get used to me before I do what I need to do to make sure they are comfortable.
About: I grew up on a farm. We had many cats and dogs thru out the years. I've had dog sat my friends and families dogs I do have a full time job during the week. We do have 2 wiener dogs. I am home on the weekends. Your pets would get lot of love and affection I do have a big back yard. I live on a dead end road that makes it easy to give dogs walks. I do put my dogs in my laundry room when I'm not home
“Wyatt and Kami did an amazing job of communicating with me while taking wonderful care of Hank. Hank has had a lot of changes recently and is a little reactive to certain things, but they followed the plan and adjusted his nervous system appropriately. Amazing dog sitters! I will definitely be utilizing them in the future.”

“Carissa did a great job befriending our hesitant, older cat, Mingus! I knew she was the right sitter when she posted a picture sitting on the floor behind the couch, which she had pulled away from the wall, to coerce him into being pet. By the second week, he was coming to greet her when she arrived. We would definitely have her sit again!”

About: Most of my friends call me an animal whisperer. I love pets and always have. Born and raised on a farm, animals are not new to me. I am pretty well versed in loving animals, as well as caring for animals as they deserve. I am currently home full-time, loving on my own 50 lb. Aussiedoodle, Hans. Hans and I would love to offer our spare time in support of your pet needs. I also am a guinea pig mom to 9 special guinea pigs! Animals are the way to my heart, and I can always make time for one more. Although it doesn't specify caged animals, like guinea pigs, I am happy to pet sit, board, or help with daily care of your caged pets. I do not currently have a fenced yard, but I live on open acres set apart from any close neighbors. Leashes can be used outside of the home to provide ultimate safety and security for your pet. I am always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
“Kaitlyn was great. We have 3 dogs and a cat. One of the dogs is very shy. She was great with him. And he had no issue with her coming in , feeding, and visiting. I also have a hyper dog and she was great with her as well. We are very happy with Kaitlyn. We will definitely use her services again.!!!! If you are in need of a petsitter contact Kaitlyn!!!!!”

About: I've had many dogs of my own so I'm quite personal & I'm always excited to make new animal friends. Having many animals of my own I think sets me aside from others, I love to play and run around with dogs. I also can and will care for other pets or animals if it is necessary, which I also think sets me apart. I'm an athlete too so long walks & everything are not a problem, I enjoy walking and nature so going on walks would be wonderful. I like animal of all sizes. Also by having pets of my own, I understand a lot about dogs and how to care for multiple. I can do more than just play & walk them, I can bathe them & brush & most other hygiene needs.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ruby
“Carissa was very easy to work with setting up the first meeting/trial run. It is nice to have daycare options when we are at our campsite and want to go do things, without having to leave him at the camper. Cope must have really enjoyed himself because he headed back towards her house, rather than the car when it was time to leave.”

“Hadyn was wonderful! She watched our Ruby on a last minute notice and sent us regular updates. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future! Thank you again Hadyn!”

About: Hi there! I’m Destiny & have owned an array of furry friends over the years. I have never NOT had a pup and have owned many different breeds. Currently I own cattle dogs- an Aussie named Marley and Heeler/Collie mix named Sadie. They are 4, I trained them myself & they are extremely well behaved and socialized. I offer boarding, day care, dog walking, and can bathe your pup before returning them home to you. I can also pick up and drop off when needed. I can also house sit and pup sit if that is your need/comfortability as well. I am up for & encourage meet & greets before bookings if you would like to meet myself, the pups and/or see the house and our setup before hand! I work during the normal school year as a nursing instructor. I am off during the summer and am home FULL TIME to dedicate ALL of my time & attention to the fur babies! I promise your baby will be tuckered out, loved on and well fed (to your instructions of course!) Boarding at my home: safety is my top priority with animal to animal interaction and human to animal interaction. If pups need more alone time/privacy, they can be housed separately from my dogs at all times as we have multiple access points from our home to our fenced in yard and gate sectioning in our house. I do walks daily with them and am outside with them as well for the majority of the day. Our fenced in yard has a dog pool and I have BUCKETS of toys for them to play with! If your pup leans toward the spicier side & is more protective when it comes to their toys, food, or water please let me know and separation accommodations can be made, no problem. All breeds are different and each pup is different. I can also give medications topically, orally, injections etc. I can provide hourly updates through text, video call, phone calls, whatever you would like! At minimum I send a daily update. In your home: as a nurse, safety is always my top priority. I am also extremely clean and organized. I can maintain your daily routine with your pup so they don’t miss much while you are away. Again, meet and greets I encourage so you and especially your pup are comfortable meeting me and being in your home. I’ll be their make-shift auntie while you are away! Whatever update/care you want them to have, you got it- even FaceTime dates so you don’t have to miss them much.
