“Shannon was awesome! Really lovely with Norman, brought water along, did a great job managing his leash pulling, and was really smart about resting him in the shade. I will definitely use her again!”
2. Baylee A.
“Great working with Baylee, she took excellent care of our puppy!”
3. Evie M.
“Evie has helped me so many times with my two pets! They absolutely adore her and so do my husband and I. She is responsive, timely, and attentive. She told me she nearly went to vet school and her love of animals is quite apparent in her engagement with them. I highly recommend her for Rover.”
4. Grace H.
“Grace did an excellent job caring for our senior dog. She was attentive to his needs and communicated with us and consulted with a veterinarian friend when our dog became sick on a weekend that she was caring for him. (She really went above and beyond.) She clearly loved spending time with our dog (and all dogs) and has a natural way with them. When Grace is watching a dog, it's clear that safety, comfort and fun are all priorities. I cannot recommend Grace enough!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started taking on responsibilities of owning a dog at the age of 10. I also worked in an animal shelter for awhile taking care of both the cats and dogs by providing thorough cleaning to cages and walking dogs of all personality types. I mainly focused on cats in the shelter and learned a lot about them that I never knew; I understand their shyness, personable traits, and much more, which eventually led me to getting my own cat! Overall, I love hanging out and providing care to all animals. Soon, I will be starting a part-time job. I do not have my schedule yet, but when I do I will update that information. On days I’m off and before or after work I would be willing to provide care in any way. In my home, I would make sure the animal staying would have access to all the necessities: food, water, toys, treats and a comfy spot to lay down if they choose. I would also ensure dogs would be taken for walks or potty breaks every 2 hours. In a client’s home, I would stop by for 30min-an hour and provide the same care.
6. Taelyn C.
“Taelyn is great! She was able to come meet me and my dog Rupert and then help with walking him while I was out of town. Definitely would book again!”
7. Katie T.
“Katie has a 4 year old German Shepard named Bailey. The way Katie takes care of Bailey is remarkable with looking out for Baileys best interest from nutrition, training and exercise. Bailey is included in most every aspect of Katie's life including vacations. Katie truly puts Bailey's well being first and would do the same for any dog.”
8. Robert L.
“Bob was quick to respond and made the process easy!”
9. Tara N.
“Tara is always my first choice for watching my pets. I have two cats who can be a challenging to watch as they are extremely weary of strangers. But, Tara has worked her charms on all of us and the boys will eagerly rub up against her legs during her pop in visits. Tara is also extremely well versed in reptile care, which comes in handy as I also have a crested gecko. She’s knowledgeable and truly cares about the animals she’s watching, always providing updates on how everyone is doing. I would recommend her to anyone!”
10. Sammi S.
About: I have been taking care of animals in some form or another since I was five years old. Caring for animals is something I not only enjoy with passion, but excitement too. I have experience caring for many different types of animals — from rodents to fish, dogs to cats, and horses to exotic animals — both on my own time and professionally. I am currently an electrical apprentice with Local Union 159, so I’m busy until 4 pm on weekdays. However, I am available on weekday evenings and anytime on weekends! My priority is providing the best service, no matter what time of day. I am comfortable with dogs on leash or off leash in a fenced in area. I can crate your dog if needed, and I am happy to follow your regular routine to keep your pup on schedule!
11. Brett W.
“Brett has spent his entire life around pets of all kinds and has always been interested in their care and welfare. Brett has extensive experience with various breads of dogs, small and large. He does a great job of taking care of dogs and has great experience with dogs in all kinds of social situations, walking or in the park. Brett is both caring and responsible and your dogs will love him.”
12. Emily D.
“Emily did a great job taking care of our Shiba Inu on short notice. Our dog is a bit skittish, and Emily was very patient. She even kept an eye on our cats.”
13. Olivia M.
“Olivia has taken such great care of Smokey for his dog walks! She always lets us know how the walk went and we have felt super comfortable leaving our pup in her care!! Thank you Olivia!”

“Beetle loved walking with Tori. Thanks for the great updates and pics”
15. Brock H.
About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a baby as well as have spent weekends dog sitting for neighbors and other family friends. I am a huge dog person and would love to watch yours! I am currently a student at the University of Wisconsin and spend much time doing school work. However that does not mean I do not have free time and I would love to take care of dogs in my spare time. I have been around dogs my entire life so I have a pretty good grasp on how to take care of dogs and how to make sure they are happy and healthy.
16. Heather R.
“Heather is a huge dog lover, is super active and loves playing with them. She’s one of my go to dog sitters and always takes amazing care of her and keeps her active, on top of giving her lots of love and care. She’s very responsible and will make sure your dog is happy and safe!”
17. Robin Z.
“Robin is very professional, organized and responsive, and always takes wonderful care of our cat and two dogs. They’re always happy to see her and Robin always follows our instructions. Robin is great with pets!”
18. Allison A.
“She did a wonderful job walking my dog Ginger! Professional, prompt, and reliable, and very helpfully flexible when I had a last-minute change in plans. I would absolutely have her back if I needed a walker again.”
19. Seanna B.
“Seanna has always been known in our house as "The Dog Whisperer" ever since she was little! She is now off at college, but our 2 dogs always look forward to her coming home. She takes them on long walks and swims, while including training in with their fun. Of course, when encountering other's dogs, she has to stop and say "Hi". I, and all that know her, would definitely trust Seanna with their pets!”
20. Neema J.
About: I am a dog, cat and pet lover. I will stop 10/10 times to pet a dog and learn about him or her. At the local park, I know most of the dogs by their names and ironically, few of the owners haha. I would love the opportunity to spend time with someone's best friend and help out! I am very attentive, detail oriented and careful with animals. I also know animals are more than "pets" they are just like family. I would be honored to help take care of someone's best friend for a few hours or days to help out. I offer a safe, secure space for someones pet as well as close access to a park and outdoor space. I am available for walks as well as for visits or assistance on Fridays and most weekends. I believe dogs help people just as much as people help dogs! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to accommodate pet parents and their schedules as needed. I am able to offer short or longer walks, pet sitting and other services as needed. In my home, I have a clear open space and am able to spend close time with my clients pets while they are in my care. We are just a short distance to a small park with plenty of outside walking options. We can sit and watch tv, play catch, or take naps.
