“I highly recommend Nikki to care for your dogs and cats! She is extremely sweet, patient, trustworthy, careful, knowledgeable, and so on. She has been taking my 4 Chihuahuas outside in the middle of the day. She has also been working very hard training them to have better manners. My most recent addition does things like growling, barking, starting fights, and trying to possess me and food. I am very grateful that I have Nikki helping me to work on these problems so that all of my pets and I can have better quality of lives. Nikki is wonderful and you won't regret having her take care of your babies!”

About: Hi, I’m Brooklynn! I believe pets are family, and my goal is to make your dog feel safe and loved while you’re away. When I house sit, I provide companionship, constant updates, and plenty of cuddles. I’m comfortable with senior dogs and administering medication. I’ll keep your pup on their exact routine to minimize stress and ensure your home is treated with the utmost respect. I’m a stay at home mom to a 1 year old! So I am available majority of the time throughout the week and weekends. I will make sure that your pup is well taking care of and getting all of the love and care that they deserve! Along with treats of course!
“Elisabeth was the best. It was so hard being away from the girls this long for the first time ever. But Elisabeth made it easier. She care for my dogs and communicated regularly. I would highly recommend Her to everyone looking for a caring pet sitter!”

About: I have a lot of experience pet sitting for neighbors and family members. I can clean litter boxes, feed pets, walk dogs, and play with your pets. I have three pets of my own, so pet care is part of my daily routine. I spend a lot of time making sure they have everything they need. I will carefully follow all of your instructions, and make sure your pets have everything they need. I love to play with the animals and just hang out with them.
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life. My golden doodle Irish passed away 10 years ago at the age of 11. I took him to training at Camp K-9 when he was a puppy. My schedule varies from week to week and is flexible as I have a lot of free time now that my two adult sons are on their own . I love walking and can take your dog with me! When Irish was a puppy I did crate him and am familiar with it. I live in a neighborhood where there is a lot of room to play.
“Alysha is the best! This has been a busy out of town season for us as we travel frequently to watch our daughter compete at college swim meets. Alysha has been there for us and we could not be more thankful for her care of Lola while we are away.”


About: I’ve had dogs in my family ever since I can remember. I have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs. You can always trust that I will have your pets best interest at heart.

“Christine was absolutely wonderful. She took such good care of our little guy. He was comfortable and so happy. She sent daily pics and check-ins. Would book her every time. 10/10 experience, with peace of mind while we were away!”

“Samantha has been so wonderful with my Australian Shepard. She gives amazing updates and always sends multiple picture updates! She is a great and compassionate sitter, Jonee and I appreciate her!”

About: I love all types of dog breeds and work with all different kind of dogs! I’ve done dog sitting and dog boarding for the past 5 years in Madison ! I love getting to know each dog. I mostly have availability for pet sitting and check ins right now, I have a trusted client base in the area and would love to get to know your animals!! I love going for walks ! Why not take a cute dog to get some energy out ! I feel every dog deserves a daily walk! Theres a huge local dog dog park! I like bringing toys and balls to play! When I’m pet sitting I like to make sure they go out every 3-4 hours
“Rosalina was absolutely amazing with my cats while I was away—I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the start, she was super communicative, reliable, and flexible. I have two cats in my “zoo” and she took such great care of them! She made sure they were fed, happy, and stuck to their routine. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She also kept me updated while I was gone, which I really appreciated. Being away is always a little stressful, but knowing they were in such good hands made it that much easier! Rosalina also went above and beyond by helping with my snake’s bioactive enclosure and keeping up with watering to maintain the environment, which I really appreciated. I came home to two very happy, well-loved cats, a thriving bioactive enclosure, and everything was exactly how I left it. Truly the best feeling! I would 100% book with Rosalina again! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and just overall wonderful with animals. Anubis and Neffy definitely approve 🐾”

About: I try to provide training for your dog using simple commands and treats. I have a corgy. He likes eating poop, so I am firm with him but lovely. I believe I take my time to rub his belly or play with my dog before feeding him or going for a walk. I always keep treats and bags. I currently have a job from home, with a flexible schedule. I always go outside for walk 10 to 20 minutes o play with tennis ball. I used to go outside 2 or 3 times a day. In the morning the firts walk is longer. I have many different toys and a medium-sized blanket if he needs to rest. They can also go on my couch. If he needs more privacy, I have a big cage with blankets and pillows. I live in an apartment with 2 beds to a bath.
“Angel was so kind and attentive to my cat Miso! Lots of great pictures and daily updates, which were so appreciated. 😊 Miso loved all the pets and cuddles! Thank you for your help!”

About: Availability: Mondays-Thursdays I’m typically only available after 5pm. This applies to some Fridays but not all. If youre not sure just ask! I’ve loved animals since the day I was born. I have plenty of animal experience working at doggy daycares, a veterinary clinic, and even bathing dogs. I’m aspiring to make a career out of animals potentially through grooming in the near future. I would love to get to know you and your beloved pet! Im currently on my way to becoming a groomer. I’ve always wanted to work with animals and I believe getting to know the community and provide services for animals will help me down the road with my career! I have two Boston terriers at home that I adore. They have spunky energetic personality’s so I know how to handle a little chaos. My life is very tailored to my love for animals and dogs especially so I’m confident I can provide proper love and care for yours as well!
About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
