About: I have always been an animal lover of all kinds since I was a kid. I currently am a dog momma to Lilly, a 14 year old small mutt & a cat momma to Waffles, a 2 year old kitty. I have previous experience working in a pet day care in New Berlin for dogs of all different breeds. I love spending time with animals, and love helping out friends and family with pet sitting needs whenever I have free time! I am currently working part time, so I have a very flexible schedule to work with you and your pet's needs! I am available most days (including weekends), with the exception of Thursdays and have availability for walks or drop ins morning, daytime, and evening. If you have a specific schedule, I will do my best to work with you to accommodate that! For drop in visits and walks, I always will come in with a calm demeanor and give your pet a chance to get to know me and get comfortable, even if it takes time. I will treat each pet like my own & will take special care to play with them and give them the affection they deserve.
About: I’ve taken care of my family pets my entire life and have been trusted with feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with dogs and cats for neighbors, family members, and friends while away! I currently am a mama to a pup and a kitty who I love more than anything (don’t tell my fiancé 🤭) I’d love to be able to help in a pinch to take care of your bestie and care for them as if they were part of my own pack. I work from home on Thursdays & Fridays with an extremely flexible schedule! Weekends, I am typically available with enough notice. Visits for me can last any where between 10min check ins to 1hour adventures. At home, we have a lead for our dog to roam the yard. I am comfortable with letting pups out in fenced yards, walking on leashes, and crating if that is something you need. I’m totally willing to assist with meal times and treats with instructions provided. I totally understand that each pet has specific needs and I’ll go the distance to keep them happy.
About: I have cared for pets many times and have two pets (Yorkie dog and a British Shorthair cat currently). I enjoy taking care of your pets so you can focus on what you’re doing away from the home. Currently, work full-time. So, I have plenty of time to fit into your routine. I am able to work between mornings and evenings each day if the week. Currently, I would like to drop-in daily vs. stay over or have your pet at my home. Living in a a home that is not big enough for many pets.
About: I have been caring for animals professionally for 15+ years, but have loved and been around them my whole life!

I have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs, cats, and some small cage pets. I look forward to helping care for your furry family member, offering services from daytime dog walks to drop in visits and even medication administration.

About: Hi! I'm a work-from-home dog mom with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—and I'd love to help care for yours, too! Whether you're working long hours or headed out of town, I offer reliable, loving care tailored to your pet's needs. I currently share my home with two friendly pups, a small husky mix and a golden retriever, and a pre-teen who’s just as dog-obsessed as I am. I’ve previously owned a springer spaniel mix and grew up with Shih Tzus, so I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy dogs to cuddly lap dogs. When I’m not walking or snuggling pups, I’m working in the pet industry, so animals are truly at the center of my life. I offer: Weekday walks and potty breaks while you’re at work Drop-in visits for feeding, playtime, or medications In-my-home overnight boarding (as long as your dog gets along with mine!) Let’s chat about your pet’s routine, quirks, and preferences, because every dog deserves personalized care while you're away. 🐶❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home in the pet industry, so I have the flexibility to stop by your home during the day for walks, potty breaks, or check-ins. I typically run my kid to activities in the evenings and occasionally work pet-related events on Saturdays, but otherwise, my schedule is wide open for drop-ins and dog time. Caring for pets is part of both my job and my joy. I’m happy to help whenever I can! In our home, pets are treated like family. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture and even sleep in bed with me. That said, I'm happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including crating if that’s what they’re used to. Every pup is different and I want them to feel as comfortable and safe as possible. When caring for pets in your home, I always respect your space and routines. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, or keeping up with house rules. I know that finding someone to care for your pet can feel overwhelming, so I aim to make it as stress-free as possible. I offer open communication, regular updates, and always schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone, especially your pup!

About: As well as years of working experience, I have recently acquired a Bachelor's in Animal Behavior. I have been a devoted animal lover since I was born and have a passion for understanding why our companions act the way they do. In my career, I have worked as a behavioral trainer and gained skill and confidence in working with animals that have behavioral issues. Whether your pet is apprehensive to strangers, or has been rejected from traditional boarding facilities, I will get them to be as fond of me as I am for them. I have pets of my own and my daily routine revolves around caring for them and meeting their varied needs. I am comfortable with working in a schedule that is varied. I am a highly respecting individual who will come into your home and leave it as it was if not cleaner. Your pets will absolutely show the love they received while under my care.
