“Shelly is a life saver! We are so appreciative of her willingness to help us out at the last minute. A late night and early morning drop in! She agreed without hesitation. Now we know why she was highly recommended by others! We will definitely use her services in the future.”

“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!”

“Thanks for taking good care of Eve for us during Christmas. She seemed to really enjoy your visits. We liked reading your friendly updates. Happy New Year, Katelyn!”

About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
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
“Kelsey too such great care of our pup! She checked in with me during her drop in visits, sent pictures and provided a summary of her activities with Shiner at the end of the day. She is extremely pleasant, responsive and responsible. I 100% recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: As a 19-year-old sitter, I offer compassionate senior pet care and puppy training experience, ensuring patience, energy, and dedication to keep your pets happy and healthy. Pet care is a joyful part of my daily routine, giving me purpose, structure, and happiness. I love making time for walks, play, and cuddles! I care for pets by following their feeding and exercise routines, providing fresh water, administering medication if needed, offering lots of love, and keeping their environment clean and safe.
“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!”


“Carly took care of Chester for 1 week as drop-in sitter. My cat looks healthy and handsome as ever. I arrive with a chatty cat greeting me and I get it. I will book Carly again in the future because she not only took care of my cat’s needs (spoiled-prince) but she also respected my place and she is trustworthy and professional.”


“Allison was so incredibly helpful with this stay. Our plans shifted several times, but she was very patient with us throughout the changes. She took great care of our pups and left detailed notes for each visit”

“Ashley is amazing. We’ve been having her visit with our cat Todd for over a year. He is becoming more high maintenance as he ages and now she’s been on puke duty and hasn’t questioned things one bit. She is easy to talk to and always keeps us in the loop. I highly recommend booking with her for any of your pet sitting needs.”

Paige has been caring for our dogs about twice a month for the past two years, ever since we got a referral from our vet—and she’s been fantastic. She was so gentle and attentive with Milo before he passed, and Earnest absolutely lights up when she comes by. Paige is reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly loves what she does. Whether it’s walks or pet sitting, she’s always been flexible and dependable. It’s a huge relief knowing Earnest is in such good hands. We’re really grateful to have her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.
