About: Designated dog carer for family, so I figured I would expand the circle. I love going for walks and love taking a pup with me. I am working a full-time job. Mondays and Fridays, I am available from 6 am to 9:30 am. On Tuesdays through Thursdays, I am available anytime after 5:45 pm. Usually available anytime on the weekends for pet care and walking. My full-time job requires me to have respect and care for people's private information, so you can count on me to show the same respect and care for in-house sitting.

“Vanessa was our first experience bringing someone in (other than a close family or friend) to feed and hang out with Finn. We honestly expected him to hide under the bed the whole time she was here, but he warmed up to her immediately, even showed his belly within the first 15 minutes! (per the pictures that Vanessa kindly sent us). We are so relieved and also excited to have re-hired her for the upcoming holiday weekend.”

“Audrey was awesome from the very beginning! She is very quick to respond and made communication very easy. She was right on schedule and handled everything without issues! We would absolutely recommend Audrey to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet!”

Daniel S.

“Katherine was amazing!! I was given the cutest daily pictures and informative blurbs of the visits each day. Katherine even put up with my cat’s shenanigans and had excellent communication when needed :) I can’t recommend enough! Thank you so much!!”

Mikayla S.

“Taylor was wonderful with Louise. She came everyday, kept his bowl filled and spent time with him. Was very pleased with her service and she sent a bunch of photos. Thanks Taylor!!”

About: I grew up with dogs, ranging from Newfoundland’s to French bulldogs so it is safe to say I have experience with all sizes of dogs. You can trust me to not only keep your dog safe, but to keep them happy and healthy. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. Would love to spend more time with animals, and can make most things work with my schedule. I am looking forward to helping keep your pet active and well cared for! I am located in the Atwood neighborhood, north east madison. I’m available for dog walking, pet check ins, and in home pet sitting if you’re away for a trip or work. Your pet will be safe and cared for with me. I prefer to care for the pets in your home as I currently am in a rental that does not allow pets. Also this will keep your pet most comfortable / in their routine.

About: I’ve grown up my whole life with dogs and cats, so since I was young, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking/scooping litter boxes, and playing with cats and dogs! Additionally, my mom is a retired vet technician so if something is ever concerning, she is just a phone call away! I am a student at UW-Madison with a relatively light schedule. I am available weekday mornings and evenings! I will be upfront about my availability, but as a busy college student, some weeks may vary in terms of availability! Please do not hesitate to reach out with specific questions! I have experience dealing with skittish pets and understand the importance of making sure your pet is as comfortable as possible. If your pet makes any messes in your home, I will ensure that they are cleaned up and looking better than how you left it!

“Ben provided excellent care for our dog and cat while we were on vacation for a week! He did 3 drop-in visits a day, arrived on time, and provided pics and videos. THEN, when our flight was delayed and we were stuck for two additional days, he covered those visits as well, which was amazing as we were already under a ton of stress due to the delay. We will definitely book Ben again and highly recommend.”

Sara P.

“Kylie was absolutely wonderful with our cats, Georgie and Weezy!! She was punctual, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages during her drop-in visits. Georgie really liked her and she tends to be more timid with strangers. We’ll definitely book with Kylie again!”

Jody & Nick J.

“Mary truly loves cats and kittens! It's been a pleasure to communicate with her over the texts. She's always been very responsive and professional, which gave us peace of mind during our travels. We'll definitely re-book and recommend her services to our friends!”

About: I'm the person asking if I can pet your animals in public. Love a good walk and will play outside with your pet or snuggle on THe couch if desired,! My workday usually starts at about 9am and I am home sometime between 3-4pm My weekends are usually wide open for your pet care needs Pets can roam free in my home as long as behaved and appropriate. I feed my cats twice daily so I can accommodate feeding routines and have a fenced in yard for play

“Sofi was patient and caring for my dog. My dog warmed up to Sofi more and more each drop in visit. She was great at communicating and sent adorable pictures. Very reliable!”

About: Hi! I'm an experienced, reliable, and attentive dog walker who loves helping dogs stay happy, healthy, and active. Having grown up with cats and a big black Lab, I've always felt at home around animals. I have a calm, confident approach and enjoy working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I believe every dog deserves individualized care. Whether your dog needs a vigorous walk to burn off energy, a relaxed stroll with plenty of time to sniff and explore, or a consistent routine with a familiar caregiver, I tailor each visit to their needs. I have previous Rover experience caring for dogs, including high-energy breeds that thrive on longer walks. I offer 30-minute and 60-minute walks, as well as extended walks of up to two hours. As a part-time teacher, I'm available during afternoons and evenings. You can expect dependable care, clear communication, regular updates, and careful attention to your dog's safety and established routines. I'm passionate about building lasting relationships with the animals I care for and helping their owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands! I'm currently working part-time as a teacher, which gives me flexibility during afternoons and evenings throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm happy to accommodate both occasional visits and consistent, recurring walks to help your pets stay happy, healthy, and active! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet's personality, routines, and individual needs so they feel comfortable and secure in my care. When visiting your home, I follow your instructions carefully, respect your space, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and affection. On walks, I'm attentive to my surroundings, use safe leash-handling practices, and adjust our pace and activities to your dog's comfort and energy level. I also provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Leah did a wonderful job taking care of Helen and Violet. When I returned home Helen and Vi were very mellow and relaxed because they had excellent care :) It meant so much to me to know that they were well cared for while I celebrated Christmas with my family in Oregon.”

“Julie was wonderful with my dog! I needed to book her on short notice so she wasn't able to do a meet and greet, and she won over my extremely nervous pup with some great techniques and patience.”

Sarah H.

“Jackie was absolutely fantastic! She took such good care of my boy, and was incredibly gracious and kind about adjusting the booking days when my travel plans changed. I was thrilled with her throughout the entire process, and incredibly grateful.”

About: I have taken care of my family and friends pets for many years. I try my best to understand the pets energy that they display and follow any directions given by the owner that makes the pet feel comfortable and safe. I work as a baker so I have several days where I am done with work either by 11 AM or 1 PM. I am also occasionally available all day on Fridays. I respect the directions given by the owner and try my best to understand the energy given by the pet I am sitting. I do not want to cross any boundaries that make the pet feel unsafe. I am patient with pets and try my best to make them feel comfortable and loved.
