Colleen has watched our cat numerous times. She is always kind, gives our cat lots of love, and responsive. When we have to go out of town overnight, we are always comforted knowing she will be checking in on our little fur baby. ❤️😸

Colleen was excellent. Came to meet my cats beforehand, and gave me pictures and videos of the visits. Even my scared cat came out the first day for some treats from her.

Kayla is wonderful. Even our skittish cat comes out and takes his medicine for her. Reliable, honest and dependable. I appreciate all she does in caring for our cats.

We had such a great experience with our Lara! Lara is reliable, kind, and truly cared for our cats as if it were their own. We got daily updates and photos, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty and a tidy home. Highly recommend!

Julia did a great job. She met my kitties before her visit. She checked in and sent pics to show me how they’re doing. She also took the time to send a little update. She does a great job!

Thank you for coming to check on Walle on a short notice! It helps to give him some time while we are gone for a few days to have some human exposure. He's SO used to me being home ALL THE TIME, since I work from home. I didn't want him to get too depressed while his dog brother gets to hang with us in St.Louis. Thank you again for stopping by to check on my handsome barn cat prince!

Ashley is delightful. She is so passionate about cats, which made me feel really good about leaving our two senior kitties with her for our first time ever getting a cat sitter. She takes a lot of care to do what she's been tasked with. Definitely recommend her!

Rhonda was wonderful! I was so nervous about leaving my very shy rescue kitty, Buddha, with a sitter while I went on vacation. Rhonda took such good care of him! He was so comfortable that he eventually came out from under the bed and let her brush him. That was a first for him as he doesn't like strangers! Amazing! She sent photos daily, and I felt 100% confident that he was in the best hands with Rhonda. Buddha has a new friend and kitty sitter! I couldn't be happier and now know I can go on vacation with no worries. Thank you, Rhonda!

About: I have a strong attention to detail and an even stronger passion for animals. I'm comfortable with all breeds.

I have a 3 year old German Shepherd that I care for daily with mental stimulation, physical exercise, and lots of love. I am currently available evenings and weekends to care for your furry friends!

We were super happy to book Liz for drop in visits with our cat Nellie while we were gone on vacation. Liz is very responsive, friendly and caring. In the past we had a family member do daily visits but I could tell Nellie was not happy we left her. This time, having Liz come and spend time with Nellie, when we got home Nellie looked at us with what seemed to be disappointment that we weren't Liz!! Is that possible? Lol! Thank you Liz for taking care of her! We will definitely be contacting you again in the future.

Cassidy was amazing with our 2 kitties! This was our first week away since we adopted them 2 years ago, and I was very nervous as I didn’t know how they would react. Cassidy was wonderful with keeping us updated with their care. Everything I requested, she took care of. She really put my mind at ease. We will definitely request her help again in the future :)

About: ****Our family is growing June 2026. We will be taking a pause from watching our four-legged friends starting in June '26 and expect to resume services in September '26. May '26 bookings may be possible, and we will start considering bookings for September and beyond starting in August**** Together we both have extensive experience with dogs of all ages and types. We have experience raising puppies, including those being raised to be future service dogs. Additionally, we have experience working with special needs dogs that are blind or require daily insulin treatment. We currently have two dogs, a 5 year old black lab and a 2 year old golden retriever. Both are highly socialized and get along well with dogs of all sizes/personalities. Ochai is well-known at the Rib Mountain dog park as being one of the sweetest dogs to people and dogs alike. We both volunteer our time at the Humane Society of Marathon County. Furthering our experiences with dogs of many backgrounds and temperaments. You may see a featured adoptable dog that is currently at the shelter in our photos. This dog is one we personally think may be a great addition to a family, especially one that already has a dog! Sometimes we send our dogs to daycare so we can open up our home to a shelter dog for the day and give them the relaxing day they deserve so much. Of course, on the days we do this, we aren't available to offer daycare/boarding. If you have a HSMC graduate pup from May 2023 onward we would love to see our old friends again! Please let us know and we will offer a free day of boarding or daycare as a token of appreciation for adopting a HSMC pup! When we confirm a booking you should know that at least one of us will likely be with your dog at all times, day or night. We both work from home quite often and before confirming a reservation we will check/adjust our schedules to make sure someone is going to be home during the day. It is important to your pup's experience and safety that someone is watching them at all times. NEW! Tractive GPS Tracking The safety and wellbeing of your dog is always important to us and we know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet behind. That is why we have added a GPS tracker to utilize. Not only will your furry loved one's location always be known at any given second, but we can also track their health to make sure they are doing well during their stay. -We currently only have one device, so it is not a guarantee your dog will be utilizing it during their stay. If you would like to guarantee it for your pup during their stay, we can accommodate these types of requests at the time of booking for $5/night or $25/stay. -We can share access to the tracker so you can know your pups location at any time and can check in on their health. It will show various information like their sleep activity and exercise information. This is only available if you reserve the tracker ahead of their stay. ---NEW! We are now privately insured outside of Rover. This allows additional and even more comprehensive coverage for your pup while they stay with us. Through PSA we are able to offer up to $2,500 in deductible free veterinary care if your pup gets hurt/ill.--- Our house features a spacious half acre yard that is fully fenced in. You will get plenty of pictures and updates of your pup under our care. Please let us know the frequency of pictures/updates you would like and we will be happy to show you how your pup is doing. If the weather is nice, I will try to get outside and take some pictures with an actual camera for you to enjoy. Our goal is to provide quality care and take care of your pup just as much as we do our own. We love helping people and having them know their pup is being well cared for when you can't be with them.

About: We've been taking care of select dogs for many years for friends and family, knowing that dog owners tend to worry about their pets when they're away and want someone who understands that and will care for their pets as they would. we've always had dogs until recently, I also photograph dogs for fun. We often board a dog who has seizures and requires medication and have watched other unusual dogs including puppies and dogs still healing from surgery. For many years we volunteered at the local humane society. We have a fenced in yard that our late beagle mix of 18 years regularly tried to escape and repeatedly failed. Dogs in our home are considered guests and are treated as such. I currently work from home, so letting dogs out regularly and giving regular attention is no problem at all. I'm done with work in the afternoon which leaves me plenty of time to get dogs out for exercise and socializing. Dorothy, my wife, also has plenty of daytime open for play time and extra loving. I work from home and regularly take play breaks, Dorothy, my wife is home most days and offers lots of love. We try to get to the dog park now and then on the weekends. We have a modest fenced in back yard with a wooded lot behind us, I walk dogs regularly in several areas. We keep also keep a toybox full of dog toys :-)
