“Drew is the best!!! Wilson loves him! We have been over several times he literally drags me to the door with excitement when we arrive:) I always have peace of mind leaving Wilson with Uncle Drew, anytime we go to Madison we will definitely re book.”


“Cynthia was amazing with Popsicle. She really looooves dogs, and she treated Popsicle like family. Popsicle gets so excited when she sees Cynthia! Cynthia sends beautiful photos and the cutest ‘pupdates’ I’ve ever read. Can’t recommend Cynthia enough and have booked her on a recurring basis!”


“Emily took great care of our pup, Toby! He is 10 weeks old and she was capable of managing the extra needs of a young puppy. Emily was very communicative and responsive to messages. We would send our pup to be cared for by her again!”


“I needed to leave town for the day and left my dog with her. She sent photos videos of my dog through out the day .i would recommend her .She took very good care of my dog Max . I will be using her services all the time .”


“We are looking to find someone to board Ollie with for weekends. To start him out slow (he has separation anxiety), we had a Meet and Greet, a short (3hr) stay and later, a full day stay. Julie was clear that her dog Zilla's comfort with Ollie was a priority, which I fully support. I won't want to trust my dog to someone who isn't looking out for ALL the dogs involved. Julie was very responsive with messages, showed us around her home and yard and was generally very calm and patient. While the dogs didn't end up getting along well enough for this to work out long term, Ollie warmed up to Julie and was definitely as calm as I've seen him after being left.”


“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”



“Kind and professional, very easy to work with and quick to respond. I needed somewhere for my girl to go where she could be around other dogs while I was swamped for the day, within 1 hour I had a daycare appointment set up with Brad. He sent me pictures of her smiling and cuddling while she was there. Will definitely be going back.”


“Briana is such a kind and empathetic individual! Although my doggy day care was last minute, I felt reassured that Semi was in good hands. Truly someone you can trust with your pups!”



“Oliver had three days of doggie daycare with Lorelei & Kayla. He looked happy in his pictures and came home tuckered out each day. I'll be back! Or Oliver will, that is. :-)”


“Carnegie had the best day with Robert and made a new friend! Carnegie just had surgery and Robert was so accommodating for her! She cannot wait to visit again!”


“Manuela was great with our dog and I know our dog loved spending time with her! I was nervous to leave our dog with a new person at first, but Manuela met us beforehand and made sure we were comfortable. I would definitely recommend Manuela to anyone looking for care for their pet! She treats pets as if they were her own!”


About: As the daughter of a veterinarian in the Madison area, I am no stranger to taking care of animals. As a young girl, I was the neighborhood pet sitter, with years of experience in the clinic with my mother. As a college student, I seek that same type of fur friendship that I had growing up. I have experience with dogs as young as milk-weening and older pups on their journey of joy. At the end of the day, just an animal lover. :) I am a part time student who spends the majority of my time inside my apartment studying or outside on walks. Your pet would be right there alongside me for all of it. I live in an apartment complex close to many outdoor walking spaces. My unit, as well as personal bedroom locks with security in and around the building at all times. If crating is required, I have plenty of room to accommodate this aswell.

About: I grew up with several dogs, have fostered puppies as young as 8 weeks old. I’m experienced with giving fluids and medications, senior pet care, and making sure pets are clean and comfortable. My apartment is right along the Monona Bike Loop trail, which I often run/walk on with a nearby dog park. I also offer bathing or grooming for an additional fee. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness always come first with me! I work primarily from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I watch. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening snuggles, I make sure each pet feels like part of the family and gets the consistency they need. My days are organized around routines that prioritize their happiness and wellbeing. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of toys, comfy spots to nap, and access to a secure yard (if you have one). I follow each pet’s individual feeding, medication, and exercise schedule, and send regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to stick to their established routines. I make sure to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care your pet needs. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space as if it were my own.

“Eric, Rachel and Lilo were amazing hosts for my puppy! They were super flexible with drop-off/pick-up times, they sent lots of pics/updates, and Cleo came home exhausted. I am extra grateful that they were able to take Cleo last minute. I will definitely rebook with them!”



“This was our first time with Luke. He was a terrific dog sitter! He took time to find out about Skye's history and special needs, to introduce her carefully to the two other dogs in his care, and to communicate promptly with me. The environment was calm, clean and dog-friendly. I was so happy to see pictures of Skye and thear that she was adjusting well. I hope to have Skye with Luke again in the near future.”
