Dog Walking High Crossing

About: I’ve been a cat parent for 8 years and currently have three cats, each with their own personality and needs! One takes daily oral medication, and another has cerebellar hypoplasia (a wobbly cat). I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, which gave me experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities. I work Monday-Friday from 8 AM - 5 PM. If you are near Monona, I may be able to stop in around lunchtime; otherwise, after 5 PM. I have more flexibility on weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow routines and instructions closely, respect your home, and give your pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. Spending time with pets is truly one of my favorite things, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality, whether that means playing with an energetic dog, giving extra attention to a cuddly cat, or providing gentle companionship to a senior pet. I believe pets thrive when they feel loved, comfortable, and understood, so I focus on building trust and creating a positive experience for them while you're away. Being around animals brings me so much joy, and I take pride in making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. You can count on me to provide plenty of affection, attention, and personalized care, along with regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands. I am currently a nursing student at UW Madison and have time throughout both the week and weekend to spend time with your pet! Typically earlier or later in the day is best for me but I am able to be flexible. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and at ease — feeding them on schedule, going on walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from their owner. I spend a lot of time giving attention and affection, whether that’s active play for energetic pets or calm companionship for seniors or more relaxed animals. I always try to make them feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also send updates so you know how they’re doing and can feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Sydney is a fantastic dog walker. She is great at communicating both before and during walks. She is incredibly reliable. She does a great job!”

About: I am a Pre-Veterinary Medicine and bioscience student with about 1 year of experience handling animals. I currently work at a local dog daycare and boarding facility where I specialize in canine body language/behavior management and special needs care. Additionally I completed a 5th month mentorship of clinical veterinary experience where I saw medical routines and gained experience in patient handling in higher stress environments Because I balance college courses and a part-time job, my weekly routine is very consistent and easy to plan around for your pups! On Mondays and Wednesdays, I am completely free anytime after 11:30 AM for walks and midday drop-ins. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I am always available after 6:00 PM, and I have a dedicated midday break perfect for quick potty runs or administering medications. I am widely available for weekday overnight house sitting, and I frequently open up my weekends as well! I treat your home with the utmost respect and keep your pet’s environment as stress free as possible. I will follow your established schedule of feeding, walking, and bedtime to maintain your pet’s sense of normalcy even with the change environment. I will monitor their behavior and health and be sure to keep you updated with frequent pictures so both you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible. I will also provide plenty of playtime, companionship, and of course couch cuddles! I will additionally make sure your home is kept clean, secure, and exactly as you left it.

“Booked Lacey for my mom and this is her review: I didn’t know what to expect with Roger and Lacey, but my husband was gone and I needed help. The moment she saw Buddy, she immediately made a great connection”

About: I have been in the vet med field for about 7 years. During this time I have acquired many skills from that would set me apart from many other sitters. Hello everyone! I live a few minutes from Sun Prairie, although, I do work on the west side off of University Ave. I am typically available early morning or after working hours or on lunch breaks. I am also super flexible! We have 3 cats! I usually keep my pets in our finished basement during boarding stays. I am available for walks, potty breaks, meals/medications, and nail trims, at your request.

About: I have been an animal lover and owner my whole life. While I specialize in dogs and small furry friends such as rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters, I have watched cats and love them just as much. I pride myself on giving animals of all kinds the best care and affection they deserve. I have dogsat for friends, family, and the hardest part is saying goodbye during pickup/drop-off. In my psychology undergraduate program, I attended a canine behavior course and am very comfortable working with dogs who may need a little re-direction. While I cannot pet sit in my own home due to living with a free-roam rabbit, I am happy to drop by when needed for potty breaks, walks, play time, food and water, even for the quirkiest of pets. I am currently unemployed while looking for jobs, so my availability is very flexible depending on your pet care needs. My passion is with animals, after tending to our everything (Dr. Cheese, our rabbit), I have an open schedule and am happy to continue care for others' pets who need additional support due to travel, work, or any reason you are unavailable. While I unfortunately cannot watch pets in my own home due to our free-roam rabbit, I am very responsible, reliable, and would never let an animal go without the care they deserve.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.

About: We have a 11 year old terrier-pit mix who is a playful old girl and enjoys nurturing small Dogs. She grew up with a Chihuahua and children so she is a patient play mate. I am available for doggie daycare and boarding. Your dog will enjoy attention from me and my two kids and is welcome to join my spouse on an early morning run. We have a large fenced yard for your dog to enjoy during their stay. There is also a porch they can lounge on to soak up some sun.

About: I’ve worked with dogs for a little over 5 years. I have kennel /daycare experience, and some grooming experience! I am very knowledgeable on dog behaviors and how to understand body language.

I do have my own dog so she comes first of course, after her I am available 3:30 tuesdays- saturdays. Sunday and monday I am free all day!! Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to take in home care. My dog isn’t the friendliest, but I have no problem venturing off to guests homes!!

About: We have been loving and caring for dogs for a long time. Big and small dogs; young and old. Our son and 7 year old dog are welcoming I am currently working from home and Bryan works part time. Our son is home schooled at this time, therefore, we have time and energy to help other dogs and other families We have a large yard in a quiet neighborhood; part of our yard is fenced and other part is open for additional exercise.

About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 5. I’ve taken care of my puppies, dogs belonging to my friends, and family animals (dogs, cats, chickens, goats, pigs) for long periods of time. Currently, I have a husky rescue who is reactive. Throughout my time with her I’ve become more patient and great at reading her body language. Because of my experience with Cali, my puppy, I know I’ll be extremely attentive to your dogs needs. I’ve trained dogs since I was a child and will make sure your pup gets all the attention they require. I’m currently working part time and remote so I have all the time to take care of your pup. My schedule varies and if I’m notified in advance, I can make my work schedule work around your pup schedule. My dog is my life and I understand the importance of quality time and attention needed for her to be happy. I’ll do everything in my power to make sure your dog is loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re not able to be there.
