Pet Sitting in Cooksville

“Awesome! Very happy with Laura's drop-in for our 2 big breed dogs. She went above and beyond, and even brought in a package for us from the porch”

“Marcia did a great job caring for our pets. She had to do some problem solving with a door lock issue and a hiding dog and all was figured out.”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager I had my childhood dog for 17 years, so I understand all the needs an older dog might have. I currently have a 5 year old Bichon/Llasa Apso mix who loves other dogs. Any dog coming into my care will always be treated like my own and given the love they deserve. I currently work from home and am a single mom, so day time care is pretty easy to fit into my day. My best days for availability are Wednesday and Thursday. I will also have a smattering of availability on the weekends I have a big fenced in yard and a 5 year old dog named Gus, who will love spending time with your dogs. There are lots of great walking paths around my neighborhood to keep your pet happy and acurve. All pets are allowed on the furniture or in bed at night but I do have crates if that is preferred.

“Sydney did a great job with our senior yorkie. She understood her needs and Molly really enjoyed her time. Glad we found a great Rover pup sitter. ❤️”

“Lauren did a great job looking after our Gordo this weekend! He got lots of TLC and seems quite tuckered out from all of the fun they had together!”

“Our first time using Rover and we can’t say enough good things about Eric & Christine. They took such good care of our puppy! We are new to the area and we were hesitant to try Rover but Eric & Christine quickly eased our fears with consistent updates & photos. We certainly appreciate all the love & care they provided our young pup! Thanks again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13yrs old, both young to old and small to big in size. My love for animals makes me pet owner’s #1 call. I have also volunteered my time at my local Humane Society where I use my photography skills to photograph animals for their website and any extra time was spent in playing in the cat room and getting the dogs outside for some play time. I’m hoping to take this career on full time so my availability is open to give you the opportunity to give your pet the care and attention it needs throughout the day. When your pet is with me they have my full attention whether we’re in your neighborhood or my own. My home is located in the country with trails we’ve made through our property to give pets a clear and safe path to roam while on leashes.

“Hayley is awesome! She treated our cats exactly as we would have treated them - with kindness and gentleness. She spent some extra time petting them and getting to know them even though we had only asked for drop in visits. We would have her take care of them again in a heartbeat!”

Connie K.

“Laura came for a drop in visit for our dog, Ash for the first time. She was willing to meet him before hand and was very flexible the day of the visit. She even came a little early late notice! She was great with Ash who is a high energy dog. We would definitely book with her again :)”

“Laura was great checking in on Phil (cat) while we were away. She sent lots of great photos and updates. It looked like Phil got a lot of attention. Laura stopped over prior to or trip to go over everything Phil needed. Made things go very smoothly. Highly recommend.”

About: Our first pup was a Golden doodle, Josie, who loved life until 12 years old in 2020. We took a year break and then choose our next love our Aussie doodle, Nova who is now 4 yrs old & is full of energy, loves cuddles, kids and other dogs and their toys 😊. I have been through the puppy stages to the end stages and new puppy stages again. I grew up on a dairy farm so dogs, cats, chickens, & lots of cows were the first animals I ever cared for. Once married and moved to the "city" it is when I first had to train an indoor dog for the first time. Our Golden doodle Josie was a gem & we love Nova just as much! I have an at home business so I'm flexible with my schedule. Walks, chilling in the sun on the patio, tossing the ball in the back yard are some our family favorite activities. Safety and respect for others is my highest priority. I am reliable and your pups will get the love, cuddles, belly rubs & active time they need.

“I'd highly recommend Madalynn to other families. She did a great job with my rowdy dogs. I will use her again.”

Ashley B.

“Gracie was awesome! She helped out last minute and fit a drop in visit with Max into her schedule. She kept me updated and sent pictures of her visit.”

About: Thanks, Hi, I’m Rylea! I’m a 24-year-old animal lover who has been in the animal care field my entire life. My passion for animals continues to grow with every new experience. I’ve worked as a caregiver at an animal boarding facility, volunteered for 7 years as a Feline Friend at the Dane County Humane Society, worked as a veterinary technician, and spent time in doggy daycare. I now run my own dog grooming business, where I specialize in compassionate, personalized care for every pup. One day, I hope to open a doggy daycare and boarding facility to provide even more services to the pets and people in my community. I’m a flexible, caring person who truly enjoys connecting with pets and their people. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them the love and attention they deserve! I'm the proud owner of a dog grooming business. I love all animals and at this time have plenty of time to also help pet owners who need a good dog sitter or dog walker. In my own home I have a wide open yard but also a fenced in area. I tend to take care of pets in the ways that the owners prefer, to keep the normal routine even though they are in a different home. I also have a dog that loves to play and go on walks so I make it part of my life. My dog would love to have a Friend to play with. If I go to a client's house I tend to follow order on what owners do or want done during the day. It is very important. I would treat your animals as I would my own to create a bond and trust with them.

About: I do a good amount of dog sitting a year for my family, friends, and colleagues. They rely on me to walk, feed, take out, play, administer medication if needed, and snuggle their loved companion while they are away. Most people love puppies and don't get me wrong puppies are great. But my heart belongs to middle aged and senior dogs. If you chose your dog to stay with me they would need to be potty trained. I am very organized and detail oriented. I am calm in an emergency and adapt to best fit the care your loved one needs. I also ensure to maintain consistent communication with my furry guest’s parents with updates and pictures. For reassurance I would want to verify proper information like; emergency numbers, preferred emergency vet, typical feeding and feeding routine, microchip identification, and places they like to go. I would need the fur parent to provide additional information on; Does your dog have any food aggressions? Is your dog crate trained or do they prefer to roam? I recently graduated with a degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant, but enjoy being around animals. I am a big fan of the outdoors (usually above 40 degrees). I am very crafty, and love projects from painting, to making doggie bandanas! I even get the pets to join in on the painting process. Currently I am job searching. I am home most days and run errands when needed. Because I will be home, that means I can be one on one with your pet. Giving them all of the attention, cuddles and snuggles, and treats they deserve. I will also have a lot of flexibility, so I can go to clients' residences to let out, feed, play, walk your companion if you decide it's best not to change their environment while you are away. My home offers a safe and stable environment. It can be customized to ensure the best possible environment for your dog. I live alone on the 3rd floor of a condo building. It has access to both the elevator and stairs. A very calm and quiet space and no worries for unwanted dog interactions. There is plenty of space to utilize for dogs that are 30 lb or less to play and run around and if owens would like to bring their dog’s crate. In the area there is a great walking path. In my home your dog can sleep wherever it chooses! Whether that be on my bed, or in their crate. I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. When caring for a pet in my home I make it crucial to keep my home clean, decluttered and have all cleaning products off the floor and stored out of your pets reach.

“Phillip is a fantastic pet sitter! He's wonderful and pacient with old dogs, giving medication, and being at ease with cats. Phillip is friendly, kind, and takes great photos of pets. When one of our cats first met him, she rolled on her back to show off her belly and hung out while he was there. Phillip got the stamp of approval.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have a bloodhound who requires our constant attention so we are very experienced in making sure his needs are met including getting his exercise and getting his mental stimulation in. I am well experienced on being aware of how to keep our animals safe in hot/cold weather. I also had a 15 year old golden retriever so I am experienced in modififying walks, sleeping set ups, and transportation that best support our older dogs. I have a wagon that I no longer gets used after losing our golden so I would love to help your senior dogs enjoy life still. We have multiple rooms where your dog can feel at home as well as a tempurpedic dog bed they can use. I love going on hikes, swimming, to the boneyard and to the dog park!! I currently work full time but my schedule is pretty flexible in the afternoons and morning times to drop off. I work on the east side but live in Fitchburg so I could make stops on both sides of town. I have no obligations on the weekend other than hanging out with my dog cooper. I live in a house not fenced but we have a lead for the back yard and walking trails. I have three bedrooms with plenty of space for your dog. I will never leave your dog alone more than 4 hours.

About: I grew up on a horse farm. I always had dogs for most of my life . Except when I lived in an apartment for a short time where I could not have one. My sister and I use to have fake dog shows as kids. It was so much fun. Now I have 2 loveable doggies of my own that i adopted . They love our fenced in backyard and my daughter and I walk them every day as a team.When Taylor was a toddler we would go out and visit grandma and aunt / sister and give chino her dog lots of love and walks. Also in the last 5 years my late moms dog rosie who was also adopted. Dogs are great.

“A great dog sitter!”

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born: a black lab and then two beagles! It was often my responsibility to care for them until my parents got home and we’ve pet sit ourselves before too. I love dogs, so I’d love to help anyone out who has one! I’m a college student taking 18 credits so I’m pretty busy, but the evenings I’m open for walks and such. I also have breaks in my schedule that are great times for walks. I always make sure that the pets are well attended to and that they are my priority. They will always have the appropriate food and attention necessary for them.
