Founder & CEO
Claire Aither
Hi! I'm Claire, Owner & Creator of Pet Sitting MKE. Life long pet owner and animal lover. While studying my undergrad at Marquette University, I started to miss my two puppies back home. To get my 'dog fix' and pay for books, I started walking dogs in my spare time. Since graduating, I have followed my passion of caring for animals by and establishing Pet Sitting MKE as my own small business. Since then I have continued to expand my team and business.

Social Media Manager & Pet Care Provider
Skyler D.
Skyler is Claire’s right-paw man. Whether it’s looking after the pups in their apartment while Claire spends some one-on-one time with another furry friend or showing overnight guests some love as the evening winds down, Skyler loves hosting for Pet Sitting MKE. Helping brainstorm promotions and look over the content you love on Instagram, Skyler loves giving pets and showing them as well.

Team Supervisor & Lead Pet Care Provider
Maya V.
Maya and Claire have been going on adventures together since not long after they could walk themselves. They became friends at 3 years old and started their own jewelry business called BEad Yourself at 8. Maya and Claire even showed their cats at 4H one year, proving that animals have always been something they’re proud of. Now Maya walks dogs in between her classes at Concordia with that same entrepreneurial spirit for Pet Sitting MKE.

Part-Time Pet Care Provider
Bella E.
A strong sense of community is something that Bella has found to be very important in her life. Blending her lifelong passion for animals and desire to lend a helping hand to those in her community, she joined the Pet Sitting MKE Team during the summer of 2021. From the day she was born, Bella has grown up with various pets including four pet rats!
Currently she loves to spend her free time visiting her family’s dog and playing with her roommate’s cat. “My favorite part about working with dogs is that they are so curious and excited about the world. I love getting to let them see, smell and explore as much as they can on our walks.”

Office Manager
James L.
James has a couple cats and a great sense of humor. One of the cats is named Mocha and the other is named Blackbeard because he’s missing a partof his leg. James likes to call him “Yardstick” because he only has three feet. When James is not walking dogs during the day and hosting pets overnight, you can find him picking up sweet treats for the team and dogs alike.

Sophie A.
From walking to house-sitting to creating the Pet Sitting MKE logo and graphics, Sophie is a jack-of-all-trades. Being Claire's younger sister, Sophie isn't too different when it comes to engaging with animals, getting exercise and spending as much time outside as she can. Not a bad way to spend her time in between classes at Marquette.

Angie B.
Angie may be new to Pet Sitting MKE, but she is not new to the team or the industry. Both Claire and Maya have known Angie since their kindergarten days in Ripon. Since then, Angie has been caring for pets on her own time via third party apps and even her own cat, Morty. Angie came to Pet Sitting MKE with a desire to build longer-lasting, impactful relationships with her furry friends through walks, check-in visits and plenty of snuggles.

Brittany S.
A customer turned employee, Brittany has known Pet Sitting MKE from the start. Knowing both sides of the process gives her a unique perspective of pet care and customer service. And her easygoing personality makes her very approachable to both pets and their parents. Dog mom of the famous Jordy and Floyd, Brittany knows what glam shots the people want and what treatos the dogs want.

Dog Walker - Floater
Kayla T.
As a part-time dog walker, Kayla is eager to break up her days working-from-home by getting outside to share some sunshine with her furry friends. Kayla does not currently own any pets of her own, but has been caring for other friends’ and families’ fur babies for years to “get her puppy-fix” until she’s able to raise a pet of her own. With a passion for adventure and people, Kayla’s looking forward to showing off that excitement through adorable photos and transparent communications. Who’s ready to soak up some rays with Kayla?

Pet Care Provider - Floater
Chris F.
You may recognize Chris and her sidekick, Olly, if you’ve ever spent a night with Pet Sitting MKE. That’s because each pup goes home the next day with an Olly Dog Threads bandana handmade by Chris herself. Chris began as a client of Pet Sitting MKE, became close friends soon after, then business partners, and now part of the team for walks. With ample experience training Olly, a practicing service dog, Chris is excited to get out in the sun, utilize her leash training skills and even bring her sidekick along for socialization and buddy walks with any temperament of pup.

Mia P.
Mia Oh My! Mia has been providing pet care for many years to her family and friends' furbabies, but has decided to make the transition into a part-time team member of Pet Sitting MKE. Mia’s creativity and artistic vision not only can be seen in her pet report cards, but also in her role as a Stage Manager for local theaters. Her ambition and go-getter attitude made Mia the perfect candidate to join our team. Mia has owned both cats and dogs throughout the majority of her life and currently has two white Australian tree frogs of her own. She says she’s excited to learn and expand her petcare portfolio (except for tarantulas… Mia says she’ll pass!) I guess you could say her passion for animals is ribbet-ing!
