Doggy Day Care in Highlands Community, Madison, WI

“My dachshund enjoyed his time with lovely and friendly Mishu and big backyard. ? We were visiting another city, and it was totally worthy to stop by there and leave him for a day. ? My dog has a bit separation anxiety and Valarie did amazing job to make him comfortable. ? Comunication was very easy, she was sending us pictures and everything went smooth and nice. ? When we are back in the town we will definitely go again to Valarie and Mishu, we warmly recommend them. ?”

“Elena was my first Rover experience—she really exceeded my expectations! She sent status updates and pictures throughout my pup’s visit, and he really enjoyed playtime with the other dogs. I definitely would love to bring my dog back the next time I need someone to watch him. Thanks so much for making it great for us!”

About: I have had dogs forever include being the primary caregiver of two Golden’s for many years. I am currently a medical student where I am unable to have one of my own with my busy schedule. I have helped many family and friends with their dogs including training, sitting, and boarding. I currently have an open schedule other than packing for an upcoming move so am extremely flexible and free. Right now each day is like a weekend for me and I am more than happy to add some dog time anywhere I can help! I live in a small, clean studio apartment on the first floor with a door to the backyard for potty breaks. I live in a quiet residential neighborhood within walking distance to multiple parks. My building is a small 4 unit apartment building that is quiet with very little traffic noise. Happy to crate or have the dog out during the night, whatever is the normal routine. Very flexible if sitting at your home as I do not have any dependents at home I need to take care of.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I can remember. Growing up my grandparents farm was a safe haven for animals of all kind. I remember multiple times where dogs and other animals were just left in my grandparents driveway, healthy, sick, missing limbs, ect. We didn't care. What we saw was an animal that needed some love and proper care. I love animals and my mindset with watching and taking care of other peoples animals is I treat them like they are my own animal -- Love, Cuddles, and more :) I am currently a full time student at the UW and work an afternoon job BUT my job doesn't start until later in the day and am looking for something that will help destress my day and I will enjoy and how can you not enjoy something involving animals? I personally have a dog that as soon as he sees something interesting, hes gone. I have had to chase my dog through multiple neightborhoods. After a while I have learned to check to make sure exits are closed, there is nothing outside that my dog would want to chase, and my dog likes to dig -- and he digs fast! So I keep a constant eye on him while hes outside.

“Holly was very receptive to caring for our dog on short notice when we had to be in Madison for a family member’s hospitalization. The home, fenced in yard, companionship of their dog Mocha was wonderful for our little guy. I could tell he was exercised and loved while in her care.”

“Chelsea took care of my Cooper for a few hours she hugged and petted him immediately. I could tell right away he was in good hands. So glad I chose Chelsea!”

“I would recommend Marianne to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy dog sitter and walker. She’s walked and watched my beyond stubborn English Bulldog countless times now and he absolutely adores her (so much that we refer to her as Aunty Marianne). She always keeps constant contact with me whether it be texts, pictures, or videos, which leaves me at ease when he is with her. She has so much compassion for animals.”
