“Ellen did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay, and was extremely prompt and responsive. Our dog had a blast playing with her dogs, and enjoyed her large fenced in yard—I think it was hard to leave his new friends to come home!”
“Our one year old german shepherd mix absolutely LOVED Ruby Paws! Ruby truly treats each pup as if it was her own. Her experience handling animals kept my mind at ease. Drop off and pick up went so smooth. My dog literally slept the remainder of the day upon pickup so I know she had fun :) BONUS - She sends daily snap chats of what your pup and her crew does throughout the day! Pricing is comparable to others in the area. Ruby also hosts other services (bathing, nail trimming, haircuts, etc.) with a salon on sight. I will definitely be rebooking with Ruby Paws!”
“Courtney did a great job with Louie. It was such a pleasure to come back from a trip and have our pup alert, rested and well taken care of. Louie was accepted into the "Dog Pack" and we will for sure be asking Courtney to take care of our boy again in the future. Thank you Courtney.”
“Sarah did a great job with our highly anxious dog. I know she was really stressed being away from our family, so we appreciate all Sarah did. She worked with us when we had to adjust who picked our dog up and we had no issues.”
“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Korie took wonderful care of Dizzy! Her communication and updates were clear and she was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Would absolutely love for Dizzy to stay with Korie and Ozzy again.”
“Once again Katie and DJ have taken excellent care of my special needs pup. He is so happy to go to their house, he doesn’t even care that I am leaving. LOL 😂 seriously amazing family that love the animals they care for.”
“Cheryl was great with our dog Ellie and our cats! You could tell she really cared about our animals and took the stress of leaving them alone off of our plates. We will book with her again!”
“Scott, Ashley and family take such good care of our 92 lb. Weimaraner, Hank. He has a lot of energy and always does well when with the family. He gets at least 2 walks a day in addition to play time in their large fenced in yard. Hank recently stayed with the family for 25 days which is the longest we’ve left him with any sitter. Everything went very well. Scott is great about sending pictures and updates daily.”
“Such a treat to have Duane & Lauren take care of my pup, Rapha while I was away. They are very responsive and attentive to the needs of both owner and doggie. Thank you!”
“David was really good with the dogs. Our dogs quickly ‘adopted’ their new Humans and appeared quite happy throughout their visit. David has a nice palace for the dogs to run and play. We will not hesitate to board our dogs with David in the future.”

“Val was such an amazing host! He treated our dog, Bella, like one of the family. I even got a super cute picture of Bella, and she looked so happy! We can't wait to book with Val again!”
“Alex took such great care of Banksy. She was able to accommodate a bit of a last minute booking after our other arrangements fell through. If we lived near Oconomowoc, Alex would be a repeat sitter for Banksy! He had a blast, and we received photos and updates throughout his stay!”
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!
“Jamie and her family took such good care of Rusty! It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family and they updated us with pictures and messages throughout our vacation. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!”
“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”

“Sadie did a great job! It was our first pet sitting venture, and my first time with Rover, which is always a bit nerve-wracking with our fur babies. But I was very pleased, and she tolerated, understood and followed my detailed instructions well. Thanks, Sadie and Rover! I'll definitely have you back!”
“It was so nice to have Bella cat/house sit for us on our recent trip. So comforting to know our cats had a person to spend time with in the evenings and give them lots of attention. She also left our place super clean! Would definitely ask back. Thanks Bella!”
About: I am a very kind person to animals and people! I try to treat people and animals as I would like to be treated. I would love to care for your pet and will always try to do the best job that I can. Growing up my family always owned a dog and I love all dogs of all sizes. We owned chihuahuas and we owned boxers and pugs. I also own a cat that I love very much! I hope that you will consider me to care for your pets when you are not able to. I promise to treat them as though they were my own. I hope that you will consider me to care for your pet and will do my best. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be fully present with my dogs and cat and any animals I may have the privilege of watching. I typically have a routine with my dogs and cat. They all get fed twice a day. I try to play with them a little every hour and we typically take walks twice a day as well. I do have an outdoor play area for them they go out supervised about 4 times a day
“Our cats were so happy when we returned from our trip! Thank you so much Shannon for your sweetness, professionalism, and fantastic care for our two kitties. They were still looking for you when we got home, to play!”
“Deedee is wonderful! Our cat is usually very shy and hides but she came out and got her meds and treats. I had no worries with Deedee taking care of our girl and highly recommend her services!!!!”
“Nikki is great to work with! She was quick to respond and took care of our three cats so thoughtfully while we were away. I’ll definitely recommend Nikki to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable support with your four legged family members!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.
About: Hi, I’m Kiana 💛 Animals have always been such a big part of my life. I grew up in a very pet-loving home and had the opportunity to help raise several litters of Labrador puppies from birth to 8 weeks old. Growing up around dogs taught me so much about patience, love, and the little things that make every dog so special. I’m also a dog mom myself! I have a 1-year-old yellow Lab named Rosie and a dachshund mix rescue from Frosty’s Rescue who is now 4 years old. They truly are my babies 🐾 Over the years, family and friends have trusted me with their pets because they know I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality. I’m a Certified Professional Groomer and also AKC S.A.F.E certified, Fear Free certified, and Pet Tech CPR & First Aid certified. Making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their groom is really important to me. I’ve been grooming for about a year now and absolutely love what I do. There’s nothing better than seeing a happy, fresh pup walk out feeling their best ✂️🐶 Thank you so much for taking the time to read a little about me and trusting me with your furry family member. I can’t wait to meet your pup 😊 Currently, I am employed part-time, allowing me ample time to look after your dogs. I am available currently on Fridays. I look forward to the chance to meet your beloved furry companion! I place a high priority on your pet's health and happiness by clearly defining care protocols. This includes detailed guidelines for feeding schedules and medication administration, all aimed at ensuring that I deliver the highest standard of care for your beloved pet.
About: We recently moved back to our roots to a spot right off South St. In Oconomowoc. We had our dog sitting business in San Diego, CA and will miss our furry friends so much! My husband and I both love animals very much and have the perfect set-up to host. We enjoy morning and evening cuddles and allow dogs on the couch and bed :) We will take care of your pup just the same as we care for our own. We have a 4 year old mutt that we adopted 3 years ago who has brought so much joy to our life! She loves to play and enjoys the dog park/hanging around other dogs as much as she can. She loves walks around the lake as I am sure your pup will too! We both have experience taking care of other dogs and have dog sit for many of our friends and family members for extended periods of time when they are out of town. We can provide pictures as little or as often as you would like. Excited to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work 4 days of the week and have every Thursday off. My husband works remotely from home so he is able to tend to your pups needs all day. This schedule works great for our pups that need frequent potty breaks and attention. We have long leashes attached to our back deck so the dogs can enjoy the sun and being outdoors as much or as little as they would like without having to worry about them wandering off! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as needed.
“Alysha did such a nice job with watching our cats. The were fed, litter boxes cleaned and got some play time with her. Leading up to it she was very prompt in answering questions. We will happily have her come again to watch our cats!! Thanks Alysha!!”
“We had such a great experience with Aubrey! Before we ever left, she took the time to come over and meet our cats, which meant so much to us. She asked thoughtful questions, paid attention to their personalities, and made sure she understood their routines and preferences. It immediately put us at ease knowing she cared enough to build that connection ahead of time. Our cats were comfortable and well cared for, and it was clear they recognized her when she came back. We truly appreciated the extra effort and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate cat sitter.”
“Another wonderful weekend away knowing my fur baby is so loved and cared for. Thank you Ning! As usual, thank you for sending all the photo updates. It’s so reassuring knowing he is having fun.”
About: I have taken care of pets for a majority of my life. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, care for, and play with their pets in many instances. Growing up I also owned my own dog that I would care for. Spending time with animals brings me joy and I treat them all with endless love! I am currently a college student majoring in nursing and I am looking for another side job in addition to my CNA job. I love all animals and think this is the perfect opportunity. I live in a quiet community with plenty of area to walk the dogs. I can also easily kennel dogs if necessary. I do not have any other animals in the home.
“Tori was great with our very shy indoor cat and two skittish outside cats. She was very caring and professional the entire time we were gone and let us know about a small problem that was happening in the house. We highly recommend Tori.”

“Our girl loves visiting Ruby! She comes home and sleeps the rest of the day after running on the farm. Ruby does a great job exercising all of the dogs that are visiting.

About: I love animals and would love to give you the peace of mind while you are gone. My husband and I understand the importance of finding the right Rover sitter. We both grew up with large breed dogs but I have also had toy breeds. I currently am a stay at home mom and will rarely need to be gone from home for very long. Your pet is my priority while they are in my care and I look forward to spending time with them. The way that I would care for your pets is how I would my pets. They could possibly get better treatment than mine at home… but don’t tell my dog that!
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our little sweet pup. He had a walk, breaks, fun with his ball. Heather was extremely accommodating and flexible. Once you meet her, she outs you at immediate ease. Will happily use her again!”
“I dropped off Moose (5 yr border collie mix) for the first time for daycare and to my surprise, he had separation anxiety issues (sitting by the door, whining). Madison was so kind and patient. I received texts updating me how he was doing. Eventually...success! I got a picture of Moose laying next to Madison on the couch looking calm and content. This was a good experience all around. Thank you!”
“Kristin took great care of Ace the 2 days he stayed there. She tries to make him comfortable even though he was suffering from separation anxiety. She sent photos both days. Thank you.”

About: Had cats all my life and dogs for last 12 years. Animals have a sixth sense about people and I'm one of those they seek out for rubs, cuddles, playtime, snacks and love...

I understand the importance of giving your pet attention while you’re gone, since they could be stressed with the change in routine! I’m a farm girl at heart! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, sheep, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rats, hamsters….you name it! I work from home so I’m available to spend time with your pets throughout the day! As long as I have access to Wi-Fi I can work from anywhere! I am comfortable with crate training if your pet needs it. I follow direction very well so just leave me with a detailed note on how things run and I’ll keep it as consistent as possible for your pet!
About: Hi, I’m Kiana 💛 Animals have always been such a big part of my life. I grew up in a very pet-loving home and had the opportunity to help raise several litters of Labrador puppies from birth to 8 weeks old. Growing up around dogs taught me so much about patience, love, and the little things that make every dog so special. I’m also a dog mom myself! I have a 1-year-old yellow Lab named Rosie and a dachshund mix rescue from Frosty’s Rescue who is now 4 years old. They truly are my babies 🐾 Over the years, family and friends have trusted me with their pets because they know I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality. I’m a Certified Professional Groomer and also AKC S.A.F.E certified, Fear Free certified, and Pet Tech CPR & First Aid certified. Making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their groom is really important to me. I’ve been grooming for about a year now and absolutely love what I do. There’s nothing better than seeing a happy, fresh pup walk out feeling their best ✂️🐶 Thank you so much for taking the time to read a little about me and trusting me with your furry family member. I can’t wait to meet your pup 😊 Currently, I am employed part-time, allowing me ample time to look after your dogs. I am available currently on Fridays. I look forward to the chance to meet your beloved furry companion! I place a high priority on your pet's health and happiness by clearly defining care protocols. This includes detailed guidelines for feeding schedules and medication administration, all aimed at ensuring that I deliver the highest standard of care for your beloved pet.
About: Hi, I’m Ella, and pet care isn’t something I just do, it’s a huge part of my identity and something I continue to explore as I pursue veterinary school! From the outgoing border collie to the chillest basset hound, I’m ready to take on whatever your fur-baby needs! 🎓 Schooling: Currently in undergrad pursuing a pre-veterinary degree—specializing in horses 🌻 Experience: Ran a pet care business since I was in middle school in my neighborhood. Currently training and studying horsemanship! 🐴 Critters: Horses, dogs, and cats I currently work as a horse trail guide and vet assistant. When I’m available, I can take requests both in the early morning, afternoon, and nighttime. 🏥 I treat every pet in my care with the same attention, compassion, and dedication that would give to my own pets. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me, and I strive to create a positive, stress-free environment where your pets can feel at safe.
“We are super thankful to Ramsey for stepping up to our request of walking our pup, pretty last minute. She was very communicative, punctual, and sent pictures & details of her walks with our Jetta. We would definitely use Ramsey again!! THANK YOU!!”
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!
“Anna took the best care of Winston! Our puppy can be shy and nervous, but she treats him like one of her own regardless and we are so thankful to have her spend time with him while we are at work. Thank you again Anna!”

“Ellen did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay, and was extremely prompt and responsive. Our dog had a blast playing with her dogs, and enjoyed her large fenced in yard—I think it was hard to leave his new friends to come home!”
“Our one year old german shepherd mix absolutely LOVED Ruby Paws! Ruby truly treats each pup as if it was her own. Her experience handling animals kept my mind at ease. Drop off and pick up went so smooth. My dog literally slept the remainder of the day upon pickup so I know she had fun :) BONUS - She sends daily snap chats of what your pup and her crew does throughout the day! Pricing is comparable to others in the area. Ruby also hosts other services (bathing, nail trimming, haircuts, etc.) with a salon on sight. I will definitely be rebooking with Ruby Paws!”
“Courtney did a great job with Louie. It was such a pleasure to come back from a trip and have our pup alert, rested and well taken care of. Louie was accepted into the "Dog Pack" and we will for sure be asking Courtney to take care of our boy again in the future. Thank you Courtney.”
“Sarah did a great job with our highly anxious dog. I know she was really stressed being away from our family, so we appreciate all Sarah did. She worked with us when we had to adjust who picked our dog up and we had no issues.”
“Korie took wonderful care of Dizzy! Her communication and updates were clear and she was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Would absolutely love for Dizzy to stay with Korie and Ozzy again.”
“Once again Katie and DJ have taken excellent care of my special needs pup. He is so happy to go to their house, he doesn’t even care that I am leaving. LOL 😂 seriously amazing family that love the animals they care for.”
“Cheryl was great with our dog Ellie and our cats! You could tell she really cared about our animals and took the stress of leaving them alone off of our plates. We will book with her again!”
“Scott, Ashley and family take such good care of our 92 lb. Weimaraner, Hank. He has a lot of energy and always does well when with the family. He gets at least 2 walks a day in addition to play time in their large fenced in yard. Hank recently stayed with the family for 25 days which is the longest we’ve left him with any sitter. Everything went very well. Scott is great about sending pictures and updates daily.”
“Such a treat to have Duane & Lauren take care of my pup, Rapha while I was away. They are very responsive and attentive to the needs of both owner and doggie. Thank you!”
“David was really good with the dogs. Our dogs quickly ‘adopted’ their new Humans and appeared quite happy throughout their visit. David has a nice palace for the dogs to run and play. We will not hesitate to board our dogs with David in the future.”
“Val was such an amazing host! He treated our dog, Bella, like one of the family. I even got a super cute picture of Bella, and she looked so happy! We can't wait to book with Val again!”
“Alex took such great care of Banksy. She was able to accommodate a bit of a last minute booking after our other arrangements fell through. If we lived near Oconomowoc, Alex would be a repeat sitter for Banksy! He had a blast, and we received photos and updates throughout his stay!”
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!
“Jamie and her family took such good care of Rusty! It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family and they updated us with pictures and messages throughout our vacation. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!”
“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”
“Tanya was amazing. We had tried to find a pet sitter for our very anxious/sometimes aggressive dog Millie for a long time, and finally met Tanya. She clearly is very passionate about helping animals feel safe and cared for, and was so compassionate about our poor dog's fears and problems. We did a trial sleepover before our 10-day trip and it went great. When we were on our trip, Tanya sent us frequent updates and videos, showing how well Millie was doing. She replied quickly to our texts and was very reassuring. When we picked Millie up, she appeared well cared-for and fine (or as fine as our dog gets!) We HIGHLY recommend Tanya!”
“Kortney was outstanding with our Belgian Malinois and our Border Collie! The dogs felt right at home, and she made sure we were comfortable as well! Highly recommend!”
