About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the lifelong experience and genuine love I have for animals. I grew up in a home full of dogs and have always been surrounded by pets, learning early on how to care for them with patience and attention. Today, I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I treat every pet like my own, with kindness, consistency, and a lot of love. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or just some extra playtime, I ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. As a teacher on summer break, I have a very open and flexible schedule, which means I’m available throughout the day to give your pets the attention and care they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or an afternoon check-in, I’m able to provide consistent, dependable care. My background in teaching also means I’m organized, responsible, and great at following routines—qualities that translate well into attentive, loving pet care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, give walks or playtime, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home and any instructions you leave, whether it’s about medications, crate time, or favorite toys. If I were to offer care in my home, pets would have a calm, pet-friendly space and lots of companionship throughout the day. No matter the setting, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel happy, secure, and loved while you're away.

About: I have had pets ever since I was born and love nothing more than quality time with animals! I am a college student looking for some much needed time away from the books and surrounded by pets. I currently have classes on Monday and Wednesdays and am looking to spend time caring for fur babies every other day of the week! I absolutely adore all types, sizes, ages, of pets and want to help you and your family out in any way I can. I am available throughout the weekdays to help let your dog out, take them on walks, feed them, and so much more! I also have experience washing dogs if needed.

“Stacey was great!! She even spent extra time with Stanley.”

“My dogs loves her! I will definitely be using her services again soon.”

About: Over 12 years professionally caring for dogs, and I’ve owned them for 30 years. Professional dog groomer, nail care and light clipper clean ups available. I’m a professional pet groomer working to get my in-home grooming service going. In the meantime, I’m doing gig work, which means the most flexible schedule to make it work for you. Excellent at following instructions and communication. I believe in positive reinforcement training and responses to behavior. I’m extremely strong due to my job, and will have no problem handling any size dog with any behavior level. I am well versed in dog body language and psychology.

About: I grew up with a Westie since I was 7 years old. I am a foster caretaker and trained to foster dogs by GRRoW (the golden retriever rescue organization of Wisconsin). I also have two roommates who grew up with dogs and are 3 years into veterinarian school at UW-Madison. Pet caretaking fits into my routine best every weekday for an after-work walk (5pm CST or later). I work from home on Mondays and Fridays so I have more free time those days of the week to watch an interact with your pet during the day. I have an apartment with a large open, yard good for playtime. My neighborhood and apartment complex is extremely dog friendly. There are plenty of non-busy street sidewalks and parks within walking distance for the dog to enjoy and run around in.

“Bob was quick to respond and made the process easy!”

About: I've been pet-sitting since I was young and have always loved spending time with animals. I also worked at a dog daycare where I gained hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. I learned effective training techniques for puppies and how to care for senior dogs with extra needs. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just good company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away! I'm currently a student living on campus, but I’ll be available for long-term pet care starting in June. Over the summer, I’m open to dog-sitting, boarding, and house-sitting for extended periods, and I’m happy to work around your schedule to provide flexible, reliable care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, their safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure the environment is calm, clean, and pet-friendly—free of hazards and tailored to their needs and routines. I pay close attention to any instructions provided, from feeding and medication to favorite toys or walk times. I also prioritize trust and communication by keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they feel confident and reassured while they’re away. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just being a calming presence, I treat every pet like they’re my own.

About: I have had pets my entire life, both cats and dogs. I raised my two current cats from kittens and helped train my family dog as a puppy (she’s now 7). The past few years my family has been part of a program where we train a puppy for two weeks before sending them off to their forever home. I am currently working a part time job with a pretty flexible schedule so with notice i can be available weekdays or weekends to have plenty of time with your pet(s)! I have an apartment with three lovely cats (2 are mine, 1 is my roommates). They all grew up around dogs and are very tolerant.

“Hillary did an amazing job walking my shy pup and quickly won her over! In addition to being amazing with my dog, Hillary did and excellent job communicating with me about how my dog did on their walks, tactics she used to help build up my dog's confidence, and Hillary even helped clean up a potted plant that my dog had knocked over one day. I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”

About: Since the 90s I have been a continuous pet mom. Before that I grew up with animals of all sorts and have such deep love for them. Once I was able to adopt my own I started a legacy. From Kingu, a liver spotted Dalmatian and her daughter Chiquita (banana at times) I helped to birth along with 8 other puppies; for a short while my sweet kitty and vagabond Puti; adding a guinea pig living with us for 8 years named Pomi; the most loving Zoe the cockatiel, who loved to jump into the shower for a steam bath and various fish varieties in a colorful aquarium; you name it, we had it! My daughter and I created a home full of life and love shared for many years. I continued to rescue Vedder Bear the Chesapeake bay retriever needing special care for diabetes and lastly my sweetest Moumou, a pit terrier mix who turned 16 years of age. She has passed away a few months ago and my heart is sore and I am not quite ready for a new pet! However, I have a calling to be of help for all the pet moms and dads out there and share my love for our four/ three/ two legged family members! As of 2025 I can also add chicken whisperess to my profile! What a joy!! I hope to soothe your mind and heart while you are away from your beloved family member. <3 I have an online Vintage store and am an Artist. Both are great passions and loves of mine! I work from home and I have a mostly flexible schedule, which allows me to open up time for another angle of my passions, my love for animals. It makes me happy as I am a nurturer by nature! ;-) Frankly, it is purely selfish to care for pets! I love animals, they get my attention the minute I am around them, because their presence is special. I added as a safety precaution, a personalized “Sitter” collar tag, your pet will wear while with me. It is meant to be just in case! Recently, I had a dog from Texas here and I realized that if any out-of-town dog especially would ever get loose/ lost, I would want them to be found with a local phone number. However, this is not something I expect to happen, but I just want to make sure! ☺️ I added the look of the tag in my pictures. If the pooches are in my vehicle for a ride. I have dog seat belts (x2) I use. Each one is special! I can't help myself! I feel into the needs of each animal. Playful to shy, young to old, special needs or easy peasy. I adapt to what their mom/dad want me to tend to, as well as nurture their unique personality. What certainly helps is heaps of experience with my own pets as well as pets of others I cared for ;-) My house is tailored for dogs, as I up until recently had my dog Moumou here with me. In my photos section, you can see some images of the back yard and house. ;-) As an additional safety precaution I have an especially made "dog sitter tag" I put on the collar while your pet is with me. Even though I do not anticipate any issues, I want to assure they are easily identified.

“Emily is a sweet woman who is definitely an animal lover! My dog fell in love with her and thoroughly enjoyed each walk they went on. I highly recommend Emily as she is dependable and will be wonderful with your fur baby!”

“Olivia took great care of our dog Lily. She went out of her way to meet us ahead of time to make sure Lily was comfortable with her. Olivia was also great in making sure Lily had everything she needed after/during her walks.”

Rosa M.

“Matthew provides excellent service! He has walked our Berner multiple times and always provides detailed reports and photos afterwards. He takes extra care on hot days to make sure our dog stops for water breaks during the walk and has a full water bowl when he leaves. Matthew handles our big dog well and definitely recommend his services!”
