“Megan was absolutely wonderful! Very friendly and I loved the updates. Lazlo was very Happy and had a Fun day 🐕🦺😃 Will Definitely be a repeat client!!”
“We were lucky to have Cynthia as our dog sitter. Cynthia and her family were able to watch our dog Gary on short notice, which made us really happy. Right from the beginning, Cynthia communicated with us well and was very friendly and understanding. We felt comfortable leaving Gary with Cynthia. She sent regular updates with photos and wrote a lovely Rover card at the end, filled with pictures and lots of details. It was so thoughtful and sweet. We would definitely recommend her to others without hesitation. Cynthia is professional, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. Thank you for taking such great care of Gary and being an outstanding dog sitter!”

“Bob was able to accommodate a last minute request to keep Hank for the day. It worked out great! I'm able to relaxing knowing Hank is at "summer camp" with Bob instead of home alone for 10+ hours.

“Small space, huge heart. Julie was great with our exuberant furbabies, Boss and Inja, and they clearly had a wonderful time! While there's not a huge space for them to run, they got plenty of activity and action playing with her and the other pups, and they came home exhausted even after sneaking in snuggles with Julie on the couch. Very happy with their experience and looking forward to them spending more time with Julie, Duncan, and the other visiting pack members!”
“My 7-month-old Jazzy Girl whines in excitement when we arrive at Suellen's, and once out of the car, she races up the steps, eager to be with her friends, Suellen's dogs, Mia & Wes. They all play well together.”
“Tony watched my dogs for a couple days in a row and he was great! He is very communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout the day. Will definitely request services through him again in the future.”
About: I have been self-employed as a full-time dog sitter for the past 15 years. Prior to opening my dog sitting business I worked as an assistant dog trainer using positive reinforcement training methods. I require a meet and greet before confirming dates so you can see where your dog will be staying, you and your dog(s) can meet me in-person and see the house and yard. We will also discuss their care and specific needs. I have been a dog parent since 2004. I am a full-time dog sitter so I am always with the dogs to ensure they are properly cared for and getting all the exercise, love and attention they deserve. Dogs go in/out as much as they want and get all the love and attention they would just like at home. The yard is fully fenced and there is a ramp so senior dogs have an easier time getting in/out. I have crates set up for those dogs that are normally crated but it is not required for a dog to be crated. All dogs are allowed on the furniture and there are several dogs beds to choose from as well. Of course you can always bring your own if your dog would feel more comfortable having something from home. There is no shortage of treats, cuddles and time outside. I have experience caring for senior dogs, those with medical conditions, separation anxiety and fear of new people.

“I'm thrilled I found this family to take care of my chocolate lab. Came to Madison for a wedding looking to find someone to wear out my dog. I sure did find great family. They have nice size property for her to run around, toys , and a bonus kiddie water pool. I picked her up and she fell asleep right away before we made it too the hotel. Thank you. I will use them again whenever I'm back in Madison.”

“Hope is your dog's mom-away-from-home. She holds a place in her heart for each of her guests, however frequently they visit, and my dog is so happy to arrive that as he enters the front door he never looks back at me as I say goodbye. He gets to choose whether he's going to the quiet & relaxing area, or the rambunctious play area with both guest and resident dogs who are well-socialized and well-behaved. Hope is an excellent communicator, happily providing the updates you need, and after my experiences with her, I would never take my dog back to one of the large boarding businesses in the area.”
