“Caitlin is the best! She is kind, patient and provides the best cuddles to my snuggly boy. He absolutely loves her and it is so apparent how much she loves and cares for dogs. We are lucky to have found her!”



“Mary and Hanna are AWESOME! We were so worried about leaving our baby alone so we looked into other alternatives. Leaving him with them was the best choice we could have made. Loads of cute pics and the opportunity for him to socialize with other pups. Would completely recommend Mary and Hanna to anyone looking for the best pup care!??”

About: 🐾 Buddy’s Boarding — Where Pets Feel at Home Hi! We're Percy and Darik — two experienced pet lovers offering premium dog boarding from our home in Brown Deer. One of us is home full-time, giving us the flexibility to provide reliable, personalized care for every pup we host. 🐶 Why pet parents love Buddy’s Boarding: • Spacious fenced in yard for play and potty breaks • Flexible pick-up/drop-off times with clear communication • Convenient location — just 10 minutes from I-43 and Hwy 41 • Quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with sidewalks and green space • Two attentive, dog-experienced sitters under one roof ✨ Our Story Buddy’s Boarding is named after the dog that started it all. At 10 years old, I found Buddy as a stray near my dad’s business and begged my mom to let us keep him. She said yes — and from that moment on, my bond with animals was sealed. That connection still fuels the love and care we give every dog who stays with us. Whether your pup is active and playful or chill and cuddly, we tailor each stay to their needs. Let us know your dog’s routine and preferences — we’re happy to accommodate. We can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home. 🐾 👉 Send us a request to get started — we’d love to meet your pup! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine. My partner Darik works from home as a graphic designer, so there’s always someone present to supervise and care for the dogs. I work part-time as a dog handler in the mornings, which means I bring both experience and structure to our day. Between the two of us, we’re able to give pets plenty of attention, play, and potty breaks throughout the day — with flexibility for early drop-offs, midday walks, and evening wind-downs. It’s a rhythm that’s built around making dogs feel safe, happy, and at home. Safety We prioritize safety by pet-proofing our home, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and supervising pets at all times. Whether it’s backyard play or a leashed walk, we ensure dogs are always in secure, pet-friendly environments. We also tailor safety measures to each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Trust Building trust with both pets and their people is at the heart of what we do. We take time to understand each dog’s routine and preferences, and we maintain regular communication with pet parents — sharing updates and photos so they always feel connected and confident in our care. Environment Our home is clean, cozy, and designed with dogs in mind — with plenty of space to move, comfy spots to rest, and loving attention throughout the day. We create a calm, positive environment and adjust our approach to meet each dog where they’re at. If we’re caring for pets in their home, we follow their routine closely to ensure they feel safe, secure, and comfortable in their own space.

About: I've had dogs most of my life. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is 3 years old and loves a friend. I have an 11 year old daughter that will also provide lots of love. Your dog won't just be boarded, they'll become a part of the family. No kennels necessary, they can sleep with me! I'm a stay at home mom. I love taking my dog out for walks around my quiet, dog friendly neighborhood. I'm home almost all the time. I'd love another doggy friend to visit us! I have tie outs for the dogs when they'd like fresh air. We go on walks as needed....and we can walk more if your dog loves it like mine does!

“Dana was excellent. She made us feel really comfortable that Ruby was in good hands. I retired in January and Ruby is mostly home with Mom now so she is a bit hyper when she goes someplace else. Dana had Ruby feeling like she was part of her family and she calmed down within minutes of being at her house. We already have Dana booked for another visit and I know Ruby will be in great hands.”


“Fitz loves going to Dana O. He is always happy to see her in the morning. Dana spends personal time with Fitz by walking and taking Fitz to her appointments. Fitz and I love Dana and would highly recommend her!!”

About: I have been in pet care for 4 years including pet sitting, overnight care, and dog walking. I am dog CPR certified and have had dogs my whole life. I work from home with a very flexible job and am available for pets 7 days a week, 24 hours a day for your pet. I am also super flexible just let me know what works best for you and your pet! I have one female lab who is 3 years old and we love spending time outside playing and checking things out. I can accommodate single pet exercise or just staying inside and hanging out. Whatever makes your dog feel comfortable and meets their needs, I am ready for it.

About: About Me There’s truly nothing I love more than being around dogs—I absolutely melt for these furry friends! I’m all about cuddles, love, and full-on affection. I’m intense in the best way when it comes to giving dogs the attention they deserve. With me, your dog will be treated like family—loved, cared for, and cherished every moment we’re together. My Care Philosophy Your dog’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I always ensure they’re properly fed, get enough rest after each meal, and enjoy just the right amount of exercise—never mixing meals and playtime to avoid any tummy troubles. I follow a structured schedule tailored to each dog’s needs, because I believe dogs thrive with routine. This way, it’s easy to keep track of their health, mood, and happiness. Why You Can Trust Me Caring for dogs is not just something I do—it’s my full-time job and my biggest passion. That means your dog will never be left without attention; I check in with them often and make sure they're doing great throughout the day. I welcome all kinds of dogs, no matter the size, breed, or age. I'm also the proud parent of a 5-year-old Great Dane named Astor. Managing such a large and spirited companion has taught me a lot—it’s not for the faint-hearted! But that’s why I consider myself truly experienced and confident in handling all types of dogs with love, patience, and skill. Boarding & Walk Policy If you're considering boarding with me, please note that I only host one dog per night in addition to my own—Astor—so your pup will get plenty of attention and space. The same goes for walks: I keep it personal and safe by walking just one guest dog at a time alongside Astor. This way, I can give each dog the focused care and calm environment they deserve. Extra Love & Comfort You'll get plenty of photos and updates while your dog is with me—I know how comforting it is to see your pup happy and relaxed. And yes, dogs are absolutely allowed on the furniture! Whether it’s snuggling on the couch or napping by my side, your dog will feel completely at home. Pet care is my daily routine—this is my full-time job and my biggest passion. My days are fully centered around the pets I care for, which means they get lots of attention, love, and consistency throughout the day. I plan my schedule based on their needs, making sure there's time for feeding, rest, play, walks, and cuddles. Because this is what I do every day, I'm always available to check in on them, stick to their routines, and adjust to anything special they might need. Your pet won’t just be part of my routine—they’ll be the heart of it. I live in apartment so there is no way for doggy’s to be escape, I always keep the door closed. Also if we go for a walk your dog will be always with leash.

Perseus M.
Star Sitter

“As someone very nervous about leaving my cats while on vacation, I knew I needed to find someone I could trust. Perseus watched my three cats on short notice and took the time to understand their individual needs and very specific feeding schedules. One of my cats only eats one type of food and changes her mind every other day, another needs to eat behind a closed door so the others won't eat their food, and one of them is very shy around strangers and I was worried he wouldn't eat while I was gone, but Perseus was patient and made my scaredy-cat feel right at home. Upon my request, he agreed to send daily updates on the cats so I could be assured they were being well-cared for, and he was happy to confirm all the tedious things I asked for to make my cats as comfortable as possible in someone else's home. He was personable, kind, and patient with both me and my cats, and made me feel more comfortable with leaving my babies with a stranger! At the end of the week, he didn't feel like a stranger anymore but someone I could genuinely trust.”

“Olivia absolutely loves dogs. She has taken care of our "little girl" many times. She gives our little Sophie the best and most loving care. Olivia is definitely Sophie's favorite human next to my husband and I. Olivia has the biggest heart when it comes to dogs. She went on Search and Rescue Missions after both Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Florence. She was a tremendous asset to the missions and helped save many animals. I cannot think of another person who would be better suited to be a dog caregiver.”
