Dog Sitting Fitchburg

About: I'm an animal lover who has years of experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits! I educate myself on animal behavior and find that it really helps me be able to meet their needs. Not afraid to administer medication or go the extra mile for whatever a loved pet needs. I'm available Monday-Friday during business hours, 9-4:30pm. I'm very flexible and weekends are also available upon request, especially if it's a long duration of sitting needed. I'm completely ready to adhere to any standards that clients have in their home. I am very communicative and will reach out if instructions need clarification.

“Alissa was wonderful as always! I’ve booked with Alissa a few times now, and she goes above and beyond with all the pictures she sends and very detailed updates after each visit. She’s helped clean up after accidents and keep my cats from getting into any mischief.”

“Our cats warmed up to Marri quickly which was great and also surprising since they don’t usually like strangers. Marri gave us good updates every time and took plenty of cute photos too”

Kenny A.

“I had an excellent experience with Kylie! She was professional, communicative, and provided top-notch care for my cat while I was on a weekend trip. The cute pictures and updates she sent put me at ease, especially since this was my first time using Rover. I would definitely book her again for future needs.”

Alexis H.

“We really appreciated Hannah. She was prompt and professional and showed immense comfort around my 3 dogs who had never been let out by someone they didn't know. I'd use her every time!”

Rene M.

“Annalise did a great job taking care of my cat Gus! She was consistent in the time she came to feed him and even added an extra visit when our travel plans changed!”

Vanessa M.

“Courtney was wonderful! We did a meet and greet prior to booking which put me at ease. My cat is a bit high maintenance with medication and specific food prep, and I knew right away she would be in good hands while we were out of town. We received lots of photos and loved to see Baby warm up to Courtney over just the course of a couple days <3”

“This was my first booking through Rover, and my first time using a dog walker, and I can't imagine a better experience. Justin was incredible and went above and beyond during the six days he took care of our dogs. I was a bit nervous about having someone I didn't know in our house while we were gone. He came for a meet and greet shortly after I requested the booking and I knew he was going to be great when our barker did not bark at him. He sent me updates each day and even came out again one evening when my husband wasn't going to get home in time. Overall, Justin was a lifesaver. 11/10, would recommend. We will definitely use him again.”

“Robert was great with our German Shepherd. Our dog can be shy with new sitters, but Robert was patient with her and treated her well. I would recommend using him as your sitter.”

About: I’m a 4th year veterinary student with lots of experience from shelter volunteering to grooming. I love both cats and dogs and would love to answer any questions about their needs at home! I’m currently a student and can only do evening walks/drop ins during the week. My weekends are usually open and I don’t mind taking anything on between 7am-9pm Saturday/sunday. I like to give pets their space to get to know me first. My tactic is sitting on the ground and ignoring them for a few minutes at first. It’s important that I earn their trust through patience and maybe a treat or two!

“Anastacia took great care of my kitty! I booked drop-in visits for a two week vacation and despite being away for a while I was never worried. Kitty was happy and well taken care of when I returned. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have worked with breeds of different sizes and backgrounds, including some with special needs. In my home life, I have two cats that I adore and spend much of my free time with. I’m available all day on weekends, as well as from 5:30pm onward on weekdays (typically). If you have specific requirements for your animal let me know and we can create a schedule that works best for you! I can perform any specific needs that your pet may need. One of my own pets has special medical requirements, so I am familiar with taking care of animals that need extra care.

About: I grew up on a farm here in Dane County and have experience looking after many species: large animal, small animal, fish, reptiles, birds, and of course cats and dogs! I have officially been petsitting since 2018 but have watched the pets of friends and family much longer than that. I received my degree in Animal and Veterinary Biosciences from UW Madison in 2023 with an emphasis in nutrition, and I worked at a pet food store for 6 years previous to that, so I am happy to accommodate any special feeding requests. I own two large protection breed dogs myself, but have also owned and petsat small breed dogs, so I have no size or breed exception. I am happy to work with reactive dogs as long as you help me to have a thorough understanding of what scares/upsets them. Please reach out to me if you have any questions! I am happy to do overnights, stay long term, or do just quick drop ins. I currently am working 8:30-5 M-F so I am typically unavailable during those hours. I am happy to do overnights, long term stays, drop in visits, or walks I make sure to go over all of the owners requests and requirements and to follow all rules. I am clean and tidy and will leave your house as I found it.

“Maya is awesome with our two senior cats who need extra TLC. I will continue to request Maya’s help anytime I need a pet-sitter. I wish I could give her more than five stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve spent the last 9 years caring for my Doberman, Rockso, including his senior years and ongoing health needs. For the past 3 years I’ve also cared for and trained our energetic German Shepherd/American Bulldog mix, Jett, from puppyhood through adolescence. My experience includes daily exercise, feeding schedules, medication administration, basic training reinforcement, senior dog care, and handling large, high-energy breeds. I’ve also provided pet sitting services for friends and family both in their homes and in ours. We have access to a yard area and I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, active, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or dependable daily care, I’ll treat them with the same attention and care I give my own dogs. Pet care is already a major part of my daily life. My day begins and ends with caring for my own dogs, including walks, feeding, exercise, training, playtime, and monitoring their overall health and well-being. Because I structure my schedule around animal care, adding pet visits, walks, and check-ins for clients fits naturally into my routine. I am typically available during daytime hours and can provide reliable morning and midday visits, walks, feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and companionship. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and make communication with owners a priority by providing updates and photos whenever appropriate. Whether caring for a young puppy, an active adult dog, a senior pet, or a cat that simply needs daily attention, I have the flexibility and experience to ensure they receive dependable care and attention while their owners are away. Every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow the owner's instructions and maintain consistency whenever possible. I believe pets are most comfortable when their normal feeding, exercise, potty, medication, and sleep schedules are respected. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible through walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, companionship, and any requested updates to the owner. I treat every home with respect and communicate regularly with photos and messages so owners can feel confident their pets are doing well. When caring for pets in my home, safety and supervision are my top priorities. Pets receive regular exercise, attention, fresh water, feeding according to their schedule, and a comfortable environment to relax. I have experience with large breeds, puppies, and senior dogs, and I understand that some pets need extra patience, structure, or encouragement to feel comfortable in a new environment. My goal is always to provide reliable, compassionate care and treat every pet as if they were my own.

“It is perfect! Michi was healthy and dynamic when I arrived. Monday was a hard day for him but he was good due to your care. Thank you so much for the holiday take care!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets in my family for as long as I remember. I have had dogs, lizards, and guinea pigs. I am now a proud cat dad to Daisy. As an incoming law student with a flexible schedule, I am comfortable caring for pets of any size or personality. The safety and enjoyment of your pet is my top priority. I am available on weekdays before 8am and after 4:30pm, and can be flexible with enough of a heads up. On weekends I am available all day. Having lived with animals for most of my life, I know how to ensure they are entertained and stimulated in a safe and nurturing environment. Whether your pet is a lounger or a furry ball of energy, I enjoy all personalities!

“Allegra has been great with Ozzie and very supportive of our schedule with helping out with his potty breaks, dinners and play times. Ozzie loves to see her every time she visits! Thank you again Allegra for looking after Ozzie 😁🙏🏼”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life which convinced me to get my own dog a little over two years ago! I really enjoy taking dogs on walks and adventures around town. My dog is black and has thick fur so it definitely depends on the weather where we end up going on a walk (whether there is water or a shaded area). I also enjoy taking dogs to the dog park if they enjoy other pups. I can watch small dogs and big dogs (who might pull the leash a little harder). I am a teacher currently so I have the summer to have a chill job that’s flexible for my needs and other peoples needs as well. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. If you have a schedule where you need to let your dog out every other hour I can help out. I can also do something more chill where they just need to be fed early morning or late at night. Taking trips and being busy is part of life so I will help ease your stress about your little fur babies schedule.

“Jolie has been super helpful. She loves animals and cares about them. She also respects and meets pet owners' needs. I couldn’t be happier with booking her. She is taking care of my babies, and I will definitely work with her again in the future.”
