House Sitting in Zenda

“Deanne was very friendly and our dogs were very comfortable with her coming in to our home to take care of them! She made sure to update us and send pictures! Would definitely have her again if we were to go out of town in the future!”

“Beth did a great job caring for my 2 dogs and cat, as well as my friends dog who is large and very exuberant. She sent us great pictures frequently which made our day when we were away. We came home to the house looking great and well cared for. I would highly recommend Beth for any future fur-baby care!”

“Jennifer took care of our 3 dogs for a week while we were away. She communicated and sent pictures so we knew how they were doing. I felt very comfortable leaving our babies with her. I highly recommend her.”

About: Hello! Since a young age, I have lived with a happy, excited dog who has always been a joy to come home to. As a younger sitter, I believe I bring a special energy and excitement when it comes to taking care of dogs. I watched my golden doodle transform from a little puppy into an awesome dog. From feeding her, taking her on walks, cleaning up after her, watching her, and simply spending time with her, I learned how to take care of a dog in all phases of her life. I recognize that all dogs behave differently, but I enjoy looking after dogs who have a ton of energy and love constant attention. That being said, I think dogs who are quieter and might not want as much attention are just as important! Thank you for taking the time to read about me, and I hope I have the opportunity to care for your dog soon! I am currently a college student home for summer break, so I should be pretty flexible when it comes to caring for your dog. Besides taking one online summer course, I will most likely be free for most of the day, if you need me! Although I will not be taking dogs at my own house, I am more than willing to take your dog for a walk in the park, around the suburb that I live in, or on the lake path that I am near. I am more than happy to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. If that means staying at your house and just utilizing your space, that is great!

“Lisa took great care of my 3 dogs (including 1 puppy) while I was gone. Additionally, tidied up (puppy, remember??!!!) so I didn't have "chores" to address when I returned home.”

About: I began doing pet sitting in 2016 for family & friends, and that was most of my sitting experience until I began my dog training certification. Now I’ve been in pet care professionally for two years, and have had my dog trainer certification for half of that. My weeks are based around pet care. I do it full-time and have a customizable schedule based around my various clients & appointments. I have special hours available at request. I make sure to get an exact outline of what is expected/allowed for the pet, and am not shy about requesting elaboration if there’s any confusion on my part. Additionally, I like to do what I can to keep them mentally stimulated with games, activities, and some light obedience training/reinforcement so they can hopefully carry that good behavior over to their daily life.

“Neil provided updates when requested and left home tidy upon departure. Animals were in good care during the stay. ☻”

“We recently had the pleasure of having Shalynn care of our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She was extremely professional, reliable, and showed a genuine affection for our pets. Shalynn followed our instructions perfectly and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend [Pet Sitter's Name] to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“Michelle was polite, courteous and professional. Overall, she did the best she could with my youngest rescue being timid to the point of going inside the house for the three days I was travelling. Not her fault and I would like to continue for future trips in hopes of her acclimating to my shy, timid boy.”

“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”

“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of Roux while I was out of town for a long weekend. She left the house clean and the dog happy. I recommend her.”

About: My lifelong love of dogs has turned into an opportunity to help others by caring for your furry friends in my home. I ❤️ dogs! With my part-time schedule I have am able to spend plenty of time at home with furry friends of all sizes. I am flexible to care for dogs during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have extra crates if that would be more convenient for you.

About: I frequently pet sit for my both my sisters and parents animals. One was a siberian husky, another is a dachsund/terrier mix and the others were a mixed hound breed and a poodle/bichon frise. I also petsit and did overnight visits with a previous professors golden retriever and golden/Irish setter mix. I own a small mixed breed dog (similar to a Jack russell)Russell, and grew up with a Brittany Spaniel and a West Highland White Terrier. I also have frequent contact with my boyfriends parents dogs: a dachshund, and a cattle dog. I work part-time currently, and am scheduled Wed, Thurs, and Fri, and the occasional Saturday. I am available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and mornings on Wed, and Thurs. I currently live in a condo so my small dog is ideal for the space. Since my dog is reactive to other dogs, I would be doing only clients homes overnights, visits, and walks.

About: I've both owned and taken care of pets all my life! I'm definitely an animal lover by heart and treat them all with love and care I work from home, so I have a relatively flexible schedule. Simply put, my schedule is your pet's schedule once they are here with us I am unable to have pets at my house, but I am available to drop-in for house visits or provide dog walking services! Any pet is fine by me :)

“Christine was hands down the best dog/ house sitter we could have asked for! We have 3 large dogs and one with a seizure disorder that takes timed medication. We were able to enjoy our vacation because of Christine being so communicative and capable. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Josie did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! She was in time and very attentive to our older dog’s needs. Very conscientious. I would highly recommend her!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I grew up with dogs and now enjoy my own dog and watching my kiddos create their own memories with our dog Jack. We enjoy the outdoors and go on a lot of walks and hikes with Jack. I am a teacher looking for a side hustle after 3pm on weekdays and full availability on weekends and Summer. I live in Lake Geneva and work in Elkhorn, so I am available there and surrounding areas within reason. I have two dog loving, energetic kids, a husband and a rescue pup named Jack. We all do well with dogs! ;) We live in a quiet, safe neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. We also have a nice yard to play in along with an endless supply of hugs and treats.

About: Since the day I was born, I have lived in a home with numerous types of pets. I have had puppies since the day they came home at eight weeks old, and I have been there to hold their hand when they had left this earth; not only have I seen all stages of life, I have helped take care of them until they are very last breath. My passion is truly to care for others and that also includes animals. Currently, I have two large dogs in my home which we have trained from day one and they are the most loving sweet dogs. I have worked from the basics of sit and stay to fun tricks of rollover, turn around, and have even crate trained. In my almost 30 years of life, I have been around so many types of dogs and it is always my goal to meet and connect and find a common ground with all. I have the patience, commitment, and I am confident that your dog or cat will be and feel safe and happy with me! I have left corporate America and I run a small business out of my home which means I am my own boss and can pick my own schedule! My goal is to have as much availability as possible so I can help as many families as possible. I have two dogs of my own who are on great routines and I would love to assist to help keep your friends on track as well while you may be out of the house at work or running errands, I have availability starting as early as 6 AM and can make it work if we need to go later in the day at night and I am available mostly every single day unless noted in my calendar! Currently, I have two dogs in my home who are very well behaved and get along great with others of any size. My dogs are crate trained, but are also safe to roam around the home and I would have no problem creating a dog at my house as well and walking them around so they can smell all aspects of my home. I have a large backyard, but it is not fenced in as my dogs are on the Invisible fence, however, this is no issue as I have no problem having a long lead for your dog to run and play with my dogs with my supervision in the yard! My home is open floor plan and over 3000 ft.² so there is plenty of room to have fun together!

About: I have the most experience sitting older dogs, I am still more than willing to watch over the puppies! I also have lots of experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes! I work on an ever changing bartender rotation, this allows me to be very flexible with my schedule! Available for most days of the week! I live at the dead end of a very quiet neighborhood right next to a large park, so there is plenty of space to play!
