House Sitting Dayton

“Lauren was great! I felt very comfortable leaving our kitty in her care and she got the attention and meds she needed while we were away. We'd love to have Lauren back!”

About: I have a lot of experience with animals, especially cats and dogs. Growing up I had multiple rescue dogs and a cat. In addition to my own pets I regularly take care of my neighbors’ dogs. In the past I worked for Cherokee Kennels and volunteered for Shelter from the Storm and the Dane County Humane Society. I am currently working part time and would love to care for your pups and kitties in my free time. I am looking for jobs primarily in the evenings and weekends. I care very deeply for the health and wellness of all animals. In addition to feeding my own dog her diet specific food and treats and walking her we love to play and cuddle. This is the kind of care I have with others’ pets too.

“Madalyn was awesome! All the dogs and even the cat enjoyed their time with her. We came home to happy pets and the house just as we left it. Highly recommend.”

“Jennifer stayed with our dog and two cats for a few hours while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with, asked important questions about what our animals needed, was timely, and flexible with our changing schedules. Our animals were comfortable in her presence, and didn't seem to miss us at all when we got home. We would definitely recommend Jennifer as a pet sitter.”

About: Caring for dogs isn't just something I do. It's something I'm genuinely passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, from young puppies learning routines to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to get to know each pet's unique needs. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, crate training, basic puppy training, leash walking, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'm also attentive to changes in behavior or health and believe it's important to catch anything unusual early and communicate it with owners right away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I make it my priority to provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they feel comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Communication is very important to me. I'll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own and give owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is already a major part of my daily routine. My day is structured around caring for dogs, so adding walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding fits naturally into my schedule. Because I'm already following consistent routines for feeding, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and cleaning, I'm able to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Whether your pet needs a consistent routine, extra exercise, medication, or simply companionship, I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure every pet is in a clean, secure, and calm environment where they can feel relaxed and stress-free. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being so I can quickly notice if something seems off and communicate right away. In my care, pets are never left unattended for long periods. I supervise interactions, provide structured playtime, and ensure a safe environment at all times—especially when introducing pets to new surroundings or other animals. I also respect the client’s home fully when providing in-home care, keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I understand how important trust is when someone allows you to care for their pet or enter their home, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, while giving owners complete peace of mind through clear communication and reliable care.

About: I love any and all animals. I have consistently been around animals since the day I was born. I have grown up with dogs and have 20+ years of experience caring and being responsible for them. I now have my own dog, a four year old corgi named Millie. I recently switched to a remote position, so I am available to care for your pet at home any day of the week with any kind of schedule. When I am not at work, I am home enjoying the day with my dog, Millie. Depending on the animal, Millie likes to play or will give them the space that they need. We go on lots of walks, play fetch, and work on puppy puzzles. I have a dog run in my building in case the weather doesn’t allow a long, outdoor potty break. There is a park that I frequently visit with my dog a couple of blocks away. Because I am a nurse, I can care for any of your pets medical needs and I will always keep an eye on them to make sure they are safe.

About: My pet-sitting experiences include looking after both cats and dogs day to day and for extended periods of time. When taking care of cats, I make sure they have clean water and food at all times; keep their environment clean; watch over them and see if they are healthy; and interact with them by playing with them on a daily basis. I also have experience caring for dogs of various sizes and energy levels. Making sure their fed, walked, groomed, and cleaning up any messes/ their environment. In addition always making sure they have access to clean drinking water and providing plenty of playtime and attention. I occasionally take care of a family friend’s dog who has arthritis. I help keep her comfortable through gentle massages, giving her medication as directed, and hand-feeding her when necessary. In doing so, I learned to be patient and attentive in caring for an animal's individual needs. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. I always go the extra mile into taking good care of animals, ensuring their safety, and comfort in the absence of their owners. I treat every pet as if they were my own and doing everything I can to ensure their happiness. I am extremely flexible with regards to my schedule, and can be available for the most part of the day. I wake up early, so feeding and taking the animals for walk won't be a problem at all. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I value their safety, trust, and maintaining a calm and familiar environment for their pet. It is important for me to carefully follow all the instructions concerning their feeding schedule, treatment, taking medication, and other specific care. It goes without saying that I make sure that the pets receive proper meals and have clean water to drink. I also try to keep the house as clean as possible, including litter boxes for cats and any messes that may occur. I also observe the pets to ensure everything seems normal and they’re healthy. I believe that building trust with both pets and owners is essential, I’ll always provide them with updates and photographs about the current condition of the pets. My goal is to make sure their pet is cared for and mostly importantly happy.

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs of every kind my entire life basically. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me since I was a little girl to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I currently dog sit full time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding all seven days of the week at anytime of need! I have a spacious yard and two friendly female dogs(both spayed) to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
