About: *I’m currently studying abroad and will be unable to respond to messages. I will be back mid April!* Hi, I’m Ruby! I'm a Humane Society volunteer and I’ve been house sitting and pet sitting for about five years. I’m a college student planning to study animal behavior and marine biology, and I’m using this opportunity to get more hands on experience with animals while saving up for school. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and small animals, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of animals and care needs. I take pet care seriously and always do my best to follow routines and make animals feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. If you’re looking for someone responsible, experienced, and passionate about animals, I’d be happy to help! I’m currently a college student and have classes 4 days a week (Mon-Thurs) in the mornings and in the afternoons. I am very flexible other than that! I am here to assist following the usual routines of the animals in my care and to ensure that they are safe, healthy, and happy.

About: Happy, loving, patient and playful pupsitters who have experience working as kennel manager, dogsitter, and lifelong dog lovers. We love and care for all creatures big and small and happen to love dogs as though they were our own children (and they are.) My partner Jessie and I share all dog duties in our house. Someone is around the house every day of the week, as Jessie often works from home, and our two pups are always home. We strive to never leave our own pups alone for no more than 4 hours so there's always time and room for bathroom breaks. And if the weather is nice we leave the backyard door open for them to roam free (in a fenced area). It is the most ideal place for a dog to have room to move about, activities to entertain, and loving caretakers to help them live their best life. We have a fenced in yard and plenty of space to roam, along with healthy wildlife distractions, fun toys, plenty of snacks, and generous room inside the house for everyone to feel cozy, warm or cool, and always nurtured.

“Sarah took our 13 yo rescue dog for a walk which she really enjoyed. Sarah has taken care of our dog in the past for over night and has always been trustworthy.”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. I love a gentle giant as much as a little yapper. I have three cats, a bearded dragon, and a ball python myself. Dog walks are therapy, and I'm happy to dose meds, clean ears, or spend extra time throwing the ball (or snuggling with a senior buddy). I currently have wide-open availability and very flexible hours. I have organized sports I play in on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, which I simply work around for nighttime/evening potty breaks. I cannot offer in-home sitting at this time. My cats would be too disturbed and unhappy to have another fur baby in their shared space.

“Ollie is always great to work with!”

About: I have been an animal lover all of my life; from dogs, to cats to rodents and turtles and more. I know that a well-trained pet requires attention and routine. I am proud to offer consistent potty breaks, playtime and walks to keep your best friend happy and healthy while you are away. I am more so available on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) but am willing to help with daily potty breaks, meal time and walks throughout the week. I have a pretty flexible schedule so if you do require overnights during that week, I am willing to accommodate. I look forward to helping you feel more secure in your decision to use a pet sitter over leaving them in a kennel. Your pet family will be welcomed as one of my own.

About: I've lived alongside pets my whole life, and have volunteered for hundreds of hours at various animal shelters. I have experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I also love long walks, beaches not required, and am perfect for those high energy dogs that never seem to tire out. I am a nurse working a swing shift so I am up at hours, on an ever-changing schedule. This means that I can care for your furry little ones on a short notice, and even check in on them at night if you are away. I only have a small apartment at the moment, unsuited for pets of my own or for yours. I will change this information as my circumstances change.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals. I’ve dog sat several times over the span of a decade. I’ve cared for dog breeds of all ages, sizes and personalities. Whether it was daily walks, overnight stays, and followed detailed care routines. I also love to stay active and will provide long walks in the neighborhood or local parks! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my classes and study time around pet care. Whether it’s starting with a morning walk or stopping by in the afternoon. Typically I am available Monday-Friday. In clients houses, I make it my top priority to care for your space, respect your pets as I would my own home. I stick closely to your pets usual routine for feeding, walks and playtime. And I’ll always keep you updated with photos or messages to see how they’re doing.

About: I know firsthand how hard it can be to find reliable care for your pets—I have my own pup, Reggie, and often help care for the dogs and cats of friends, neighbors, and family. My partner and I would love to help look after your furry family members so you can enjoy stress-free time away. I work from home 3 days a week so I have a very flexible schedule. I am able to do morning, evening and local drop-ins at lunch. I am very experienced with managing reactive dogs on walks as well as managing emergency situations. With clear instructions, I'm happy to accommodate any of your pets quirks!

“Alexandria has been walking my dog, Louie, for several weeks now since I’ve been recovering from knee surgery. She’s reliable, communicative, and has been great with his occasional leash reactivity. I’m happy to have Alexandria walking my dog while I can’t!”

About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, my apartment is very dog-friendly, with many residents having pets and there are plenty of amenities available, whether walking around the neighborhood on leash or playing in the apartment’s fenced in dog run, that will give your pet what it needs. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.

About: I’ve grown up with pets since I was three years old. I have a lot of experience caring for my own pets and other households’ dogs and cats — I’m responsible and reliable, and know the importance of a consistent schedule to make a pet feel secure. I provide lots of loving hugs and pets to any dog or cat I take care of. Just an avid pet lover! I’m currently in between jobs for the month of November, so my schedule is very flexible. I can work in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings — as well as on weekends and holidays. Like I said, consistency is most important to me. I value walking and feeding cats and dogs at the same times every day. I also provide them lots of pets, and would probably stay with them in their room when asleep

Although I do not currently have a pet, I am delighted to get my fix of dog love by caring for your furry friend. I have adopted a pup of my own in the past, and I know first hand that a busy schedule can really interfere with your dog's needs . The main reason I joined this business is to solve that problem . I am knowledgeable in pet safety and some beginner training . I am very flexible with my schedule since I am self employed , and I do my best to stay in communication with you throughout the visit. I can't wait to meet you and your pet! I am currently self employed and have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to take some last minute requests most of the time. I live in Sherman Village area, and am just steps away from the beautiful Cherokee Marsh Unit, where many walks and dog park visits await.

“Always happy to know the pups have Brenda to check on them while I’m at work!”

About: I have been helping my family take care of our amazing black lab, Griffon, for the last 6 years. i love to exercise so i take multiple walk per day! I love walking dogs because it’s a chance to bond with my own dog while enjoying the outdoors. It’s a great way to get some exercise, clear my mind, and see the joy in my dog’s face as we explore together. Every walk is a new adventure, and I enjoy making those special moments with my furry friend. i walk my dog everyday and am free a lot of the time on weekends as I am a senior in high school and a server and a restaurant. i love to play with dogs and meet new animals and their owners! i love to help when people ever need a break with life or are just busy
