Pet Sitting Basco

“Lauren was amazing with my cat! She sent updates and photos each day which made me feel so much better about being away. My fur baby warmed up to her very quickly. I highly recommend!”

“Sydney signed up for what should have been a straightforward series of drop ins that ended up asking a lot of her when my kitten got sick the day before my trip. Sydney had to administer multiple medications and eye ointment as well as follow my usual feeding instructions. She did great and even covered an extra couple days when I had to immediately leave again to attend an unexpected funeral. Highly recommend!”

“Ann was communicative and responsive, including when I messaged her during a Rover visit. They were happy as cats can be when I came back. Thanks for watching them!”

Brianna T.

“She’s amazing as always! I feel so at peace knowing that Jacki is taking care of my dog Gimli when I’m away. She provides great updates and consistency.”

“Stacey is the best cat sitter I've ever used! I had to leave the country for a month, and she took excellent care of my cat. I received several pictures daily and detailed updates, which reassured me he was in good hands. Even during a building fire alarm, she visited him to ensure his safety.”

“Annalise did a great job taking care of my cat Gus! She was consistent in the time she came to feed him and even added an extra visit when our travel plans changed!”

About: I've had 2 family dogs and 4 cats! As well as helping take care of friends and roommates pets. I love them and it's fun for me, just thought it'd be a cute and easy way to make a little extra money. I work full time so can only do quicker drop-ins in the mornings and/or evenings during the week but could drop by more over weekends! Am good to drop by homes/apartments and feed/walk/hang out with pets for a bit, not available to care for them from my apartment.

About: **Please note that we are only accepting small dogs 30 lbs or less due to our small home.** Hello! My name is Doua Song Khath, but I also go by Jenny. My husband, Darin, and I are new to Rover but not new to pet sitting. My little family of 4 + 2 senior furbabies are so excited to open our home to your family, or take your furbaby on walks/breaks as often as needed. A little bit about us: Darin and I have had our senior poms since they were puppies (15 yrs now). We also have two children, ages 9 and 7. They both are aware of dogs, and are respectful of their boundaries. We also have a fenced in yard that we love to spend time in. We enjoy taking lots of walks on this side of town as it’s pretty challenging with all the hills! ☺️ I work from home and will and can be flexible with my time. My husband is also home as well and can be flexible with his schedule. We have a fenced yard. We walk dogs on leashes. We provide fresh water daily. We follow feeding directions per our clients. We can communicate daily via text and pics. We value transparency and keeping you informed about your pet’s care daily.

“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our 2 cats. They really loved her and how she interacted with them, and we felt confident the entire time we were away that they were being cared for as we would care for them. We 100% recommend, and will definitely book Melissa again next time we need a sitter for our purr monsters.”

About: I have over 30 years experience training dogs. I am able to dog sit from my home full time. I recently moved to a large property in the country, that is a short 35 minute drive from Madisons west side. I have a acer that is completely fenced in and I am more than happy to offer pick up and drop off to the west side of Madison. I'm professional trained as a dog groomer, worked professionally for over 6 years as a groomer, dog trainer and doggie daycare provider. I have also worked as a vet assistant for 2 years in Denver Colorado. I am certified in humane and dog CPR and I graduated with an EMS degree for humans, this training helps me respond to variety of situations with confidence. I was a volunteer at two different Humane Society's for over 12 years. I have fostered, rehabilitated and Rehoused 15 dogs most with serious behavioral issues. I am an avid dog lover and enjoy spending time with my dogs and other people's dogs. I can stay home full time now. I also have a full acer that is fenced and I have walking trails in the country and I still frequently go to the dog park and I am never gone more than 1-2 hours. Rover is away for me to stay home with my dogs and hopefully your dogs. My dogs LOVE having dog friends visit our pack and home.-I am a firm believer in the saying "A tired dog is a good dog".- I have been dog sitting full time for the past year and I enjoy being home all day long. I recently moved and have an acer of fenced land and I am happy to offer pick up and drop off of your pet or we can meet closer to your house. I am only about 30 mins south of Madison. I have a huge fenced yard with extra gates and separate fenced areas to do introductions safely. Dogs are NEVER left unsupervised outside. Your dog’s safety and mine dogs safety is my top priority!

“We had Kate do several drop in visits while we were out of town. She was very responsive, took great care of our 2 cats, and even brought some Christmas treats for them after confirming they were allowed to have them. We would definitely book with Kate in the future!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, my father was a veterinarian. I love being around and interacting with dogs because of how affectionate they are. I've taken care of family and friends pets for over 20 years and am willing to allow your pet to stay in their home where they are most comfortable while you are away. I am currently retired and open for whatever your needs are, 7 days of the week. I am open to staying at your home any day of the week as needed, or for drop in visits during the day. I will follow your instructions on how to care for your pet in your home to keep their schedule as consistent as possible. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and letting them play and relax.

About: I've been caring for cats for over three years and have hosted more than 10 cats for overnight boarding and drop-in visits. Cats are my focus, and I've learned that the first few days matter most — a new environment can be genuinely stressful for them, so I never rush the process. I live in a large single-family home with plenty of space. Your cat gets their own quiet room to settle into on arrival, with food, water, litter, and hiding spots all to themselves. Most cats relax within 3–7 days, though every cat is different and I always go at their pace. I also have two resident cats (both 2+ years) and a friendly 2-year-old dog. All three are calm and well-socialized. If you'd like your cat to have company, I can introduce them slowly once your cat is comfortable — many guests end up making friends. If you'd rather your cat stay in their own space for the whole stay, that's completely fine too. It's your call. You'll get photos and videos throughout the stay so you can see how your cat is doing. I'm happy to follow your feeding schedule, litter preferences, and any routines that help your cat feel at home. Just let me know what your cat likes and I'll take it from there. I work from home most days, so I'm around for a good part of the day and can check on cats regularly rather than only at set times. Cats get fresh food and water in the morning, litter scooped at least twice a day, and play or quiet company in the evening when they're most active. For boarding guests, I check on the isolation room several times a day — short, calm visits so your cat gets used to me without feeling crowded. I'm home every evening and overnight, so your cat is never alone for long stretches. For drop-in visits, I'm flexible on timing and can usually fit in morning and evening slots. Just tell me the schedule your cat is used to and I'll match it. In my home: I live in a large single-family house with a fenced yard and no cat access to the outdoors — all windows are screened and doors stay closed, so there's no escape risk. Every boarding guest starts in a private room of their own with food, water, litter, a bed, and places to hide. That separation isn't just for introductions — it also keeps things clean and low-stress if your cat is shy or has never boarded before. I have two resident cats and one dog, all friendly and used to visitors. They never have access to a guest's room unless the owner has asked for gradual introductions and the cat is clearly comfortable. Most cats settle in 3–7 days, and I let each cat set the pace. I ask that boarding cats be up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention, and I keep the vet's number and your emergency contact on hand for the whole stay. I'll let you know right away if anything seems off — appetite, litter box, or behavior. In your home: I follow your routine exactly as you've written it — feeding amounts, medication, litter, and any spots your cat likes to be left alone. I keep doors and windows secured, bring in mail or packages if you'd like, and send photos and a short update after every visit so you know what happened while you were away.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals including cats and dogs throughout my life. These animals have had varying temperaments and care requirements giving me a range of care experiences. I am a college student who is busy for some part of the morning and afternoon but can drop in about three times a day. In my own home, I have two cats and grew up with two dogs. Frequent walks for the dogs and enrichment for the cats are a staple.
