“Eileen was awesome with my high energy dog! She went above and beyond whole caring for him and I couldn’t be more grateful. She had great communication and sent me insightful updates! Thanks Eileen!”


2. Olivia L.

“Really knows how to run out our aussies energy :)”


3. Laura S.
“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”


4. Brittany S.
“My animals love Brittany more than they love me. She is a true animal lover and I could always count on her to a good job keeping my babies company when I went out of town. I recently moved from the Madison area and miss having Brittany around to look after everyone.”


5. Sophie W.
“Sophie is an amazing dog walker! She’s not only reliable and caring, but she truly understands pets, as she has one of her own. Her love for animals shines through in how she treats every dog like her own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just giving them the attention they need, Sophie goes above and beyond. I trust her completely, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and kind to care for their furry friends!”

“super professional !”


7. Kali B.


“Kali was wonderful! Took Norman for a walk while I ran into campus for a meeting. She was right on time, and very sweet with Norman. He’s definitely a puller and she did great walking him. He was clearly sad to see her go. Would absolutely use Kali again!”


8. Alijah M.

“Alijah has been reliable and good with my dog. Definitely recommend.”


9. Ernst G.

“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”


10. Christina K.
“In the four years since we met as fellow puppy parents, Tina’s knowledge and her absolute love for dogs makes her my first choice when it comes to caring for my two dogs. They absolutely love her and get so excited when they see her coming to visit!”


11. Katie T.
“I am a dog owner of a 5 year old labradoodle (Daisy) that I would consider my daughter. I do not trust anyone more than Katie to watch Daisy. I have went away numerous times and she has watched Daisy (up to two weeks at a time). Daisy is a fussy eater and Katie gets her to eat almost all her meals (I cannot even get her to eat every meal), which is a HUGE accomplishment. Daisy is also a runner (not good with recall) and I can trust Katie to not to take her off leash unless it is a fenced in area. Katie also exercises Daisy as often as I ask her to. Katie has a 5 year German Shepard (Bailey) that is like a big sister to my dog. Katie has completed a lot of dog training with Bailey and constantly works with her to not be reactive with other dogs. If you have a dog that needs special attention, Katie is your girl. She works well with reactive dogs and stays calm if a dog shows aggression. Katie is very trusting and loyal. She would protect and watch over your fur baby when you have to leave home.”


12. Henry M.

“Amazing. Professional! On time and sweet ❤️❤️”


13. Melissa T.
“Melissa has been a very dear friend of mine and my cat since college. I have seen her pet sit for at least 8 people and her charm with cats and dogs are just incredible. She cares with so much love and is always willing to spend the most time with our furry friends. She is very responsible as well. Her own cat - Suki, was picked up as a stray cat, took only one week to become the most loving cat and precious baby. Only someone with so much love can be there for the change. Therefore I can certified that Melissa is a wonderful pet sitter.”


14. Briana M.
“If you hope to leave your furry friend in the best hands, Briana is your girl! Her love for dogs is so strong, and their love back for her may be even stronger! This is evident with my dogs delight whenever he sees her. She has a lot of experience in caring for dogs, as she had a wonderful dog herself, who lived to the old age of 16. Her dog, Roxy, was well cared for, loved, and was given a walk every day. Roxy always had the biggest smile and spunk, she was clearly so happy in her life with Bri. I have no doubt that she would treat anyone’s dog with the same love and kindness as she did her own. Bri is also the most dependable person and friend. She goes above and beyond and everything she does, and is a delight to be around. I couldn’t recommend her higher to anyone who needs help watching their furry friend. They will be the best off in her loving care!”


15. Kagen & Matthew D.


“Luna loved her walks this week with Matthew and Kagen. Even though it was snowy, I appreciate that Luna was coaxed out to get some exercise. Thank you!!!”


16. Kendell O.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I grew up with dogs, and took on care responsibilities from a young age. I have cared for neighbors dogs both while they are traveling and during the work day. I have lived with cats for the past 6 years and care for them when my roommates are out of town. I am comfortable with any size dog, as well as any age. My family had a very young and senior dog at the same time, so I understand the intricacies of caring for an older pet and managing multiple at once. I’m currently in school, so I do not have a typical full-time work schedule. I have flexibility in my days, especially between Friday-Monday. Tuesday through Thursday I have flexibility in the afternoons and evenings. I am available every morning except for Wednesday until about 10 am on average. I spend time making sure pets are given attention, played with, and have the necessary food and water to be comfortable. I enjoy spending time with pets in whatever form is most enjoyable to them.


17. Mary B.

“Mary is so great! My dog Luna gets very adorably excited when she knows Mary is coming over for a walk. I totally trust her with Luna and I know they have a good time. Looking forward to rebooking! Thanks, Mary. 😊”


18. Stacy S.

“Stacy was great! She was communicative and she listened to all the details about my dog. She is timely and trustworthy, and my dog loves her too!”


19. Anna S.


“Maggie(Anna) is wonderful, she takes my pup on great walks while I'm away at work! Even when the weather sucks she's there to get her out, snuggle, or play as needed and I can tell she really understands my dog's quirks and charms.”
