Top rated Wauwatosa house sitters
“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”
“Keisha was amazing! She helped us out when another sitter cancelled. She took amazing care of our 2 dogs while we were away! She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and kept us posted the whole weekend! She truly understood and embraced my dog’s personalities! I would highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future!”
“Adrienne was a wonderful sitter for my 3 miniature schnauzer pups! They absolutely loved her attentiveness and affinity for snuggles. She followed my instructions and was very detailed oriented and even combed their fur and brushed their teeth. We all agree that we will definitely book Adrienne again!”
“As usual, a smooth transaction/stay! We absolutely love Ashley. She is very flexible, punctual and most importantly - clean (we only do home stays). Our pup is always happy to see Ashley and enjoys her company very much.”
“Lexi is wonderful with our elderly pup Daisy. Daisy becomes stressed when we are not home, but with Lexi there, she was calm as a cucumber when we returned from an evening out! It was clear she felt safe and cared for by Lexi.”
“My cats do not like anyone but Nimbus loved her. Even looked for her after she was done watching them. There was also the added task of keeping my fish alive and they were all there when I got home. As long as Emily isn't busy, she will probably be watching the cats again.”
“Alex was a great person to have watch our dog. He made sure she was walked, fed and protected when she was scared that we were not here. He is a kind and respectable man. He even made sure that any dishes he used were ran thru the dishwasher before he left. We will definitely look to have him sit for us again when we are out of town again.”
“Tanner is absolutely brilliant. He’s a very loving, caring person that made my doggo feel like the most spoiled baby while I was out of town. I don’t think the dog missed me once! Tanner was super flexible about sleeping over at my place to alleviate some anxiety for doggo, and he was communicative throughout my trip, sending me daily updates with pictures. I can’t recommend him enough, and doggo is already asking when I’m going out of town next so he can hang with his new buddy, Tanner!”
“Jamila did a wonderful job watching my 5 month spunky puppy while I needed to go into work. She provided updates and showed much interest in understanding her needs and routines. Would book again with no hesitations. Thanks!”
“April was wonderful! She's very personable and a great communicator. She took excellent care of Lola, followed all the care instructions and kept the house very clean. I would highly recommend her.”
“Zoey was amazing with my dogs and had incredible communication. This is the first time I have left my babies alone with someone and she couldn’t have made me feel more comfortable about it. Highly Recommended and I will, without hesitation, book her again!”
“We left our dog cash with Amy for a week and she was GREAT! Cash is reactive to other dogs and Amy was still comfortable taking him on walks and navigating around his triggers. Highly recommend!”
“Riley was great at making sure to hang out with our dog Obie while we were out of town. He was not even quick to whine upon returning from a trip. Great at responding when asking for any updates and we had good communication while trying to meet up to get details down. We would definitely recommend for any pet needs :)”
“Elizabeth went above and beyond to take care of our pup and our home during her stay. She provided multiple updates and photos throughout the day and kept our dog safe and happy while we were away. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I grew up on my grandmother's farm caring for dogs cats and horses. I've done it all from making special meals for pets to changing horseshoes on the farm. I'm a tattoo artist and have mornings open and 3 days off Monday-Wednesday my schedule is very much what I make it and I can make special accommodations if needed! They are family even if we just met. I believe animals are far more intelligent and aware than most people give them credit for! I am to treat every animal I meet with the same respect and attitude that I would my own companions
