“Nikki was awesome! I love that she wanted to meet my cat first to make sure it was a good match for both of them. She was very knowledgeable about how to interact with my cat. During the drop-in visits, she took care to read the instructions I left and use the information to interact with my cat, including brushing him which he always enjoys. She left detailed report cards. I will 100% be a repeat customer! Thank you for taking such good care of my cat while I was away, Nikki!”



“Samantha was amazing!! She took care of my fur babies while we were away for the weekend and kept me up to date with photos everyday. She went above and beyond and cleaned up all messes they made around the house and littler box. Would highly recommend and would definitely use Samantha for pet care in the future ?”

About: We have grown up with animals our entire lives. Currently, we have two charming dogs and one adorable cat. Our top priority is to create a nurturing environment where animals feel safe, secure and at ease. We also have two younger children in the home, so any visiting dogs would have to be okay with them. All interactions are supervised for everyone's safety. Please message me with any questions. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but can provide potty breaks during my lunch breaks. My husband finishes his work earlier in the day, which gives extra play time for our animals and your furry friends staying with us! Our children are involved in almost every sport possible, and we love taking our dogs with us to their practices and games. Yours can join too if they are up to it! Playing fetch, tug of war, or just cuddling on the couch, whatever it is that suits your dog best, we are up for it! We are not available for early morning drop-offs during the week, and would require your pet is dropped-off/picked up the evening before. We appreciate your understanding, and cooperation. We have a fully fenced in yard, two lovable dogs, a charming cat and two kids who will keep your furry friend entertained while you are away. Pets are welcome on the furniture, including our bed, and we can easily crate them, if necessary, while we are out. We will offer a designated feeding area for your pet away from our dogs. Your dog will be treated like a member of our family during their stay, and we will do our best to establish a routine that closely resembles their home life.

“sandina was very reliable and responsive. it helped me a lot to know she was there because I was anxious leaving them. she took great care of our kitten and our older cat.”


About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dog, who I’ve had for 9 wonderful years, as well as helping out friends and family with their dogs. From feeding and walking to playtime and cuddles, I’ve handled a wide range of everyday pet care needs and understand how important consistency and attention are for keeping pets happy and healthy. What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. Because I’ve mostly cared for dogs in a home setting, I know how to keep them feeling comfortable, calm, and loved when their owners are away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they get the attention, care, and affection they deserve I prefer to watch dogs at my home for boarding, as I work remotely and am home during the day to provide plenty of attention and care. I also have two children at home who love helping out and enjoy meeting new dogs! I’m open to occasional daytime house sitting as well, as long as I’m able to work remotely. Your dog’s comfort and happiness are always a top priority in our home! When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and relaxed environment where they’re treated like part of the family. Pets have plenty of space to rest, play, and explore, and I make sure to stick to their regular routines as much as possible, that means morning walks, medication schedules, or feeding times. I keep communication open with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos so they feel confident and connected. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I’m respectful, tidy, and make sure to maintain the same level of care their pets are used to. I follow all instructions closely and take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and needs. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away.

About: I worked at a vet clinic for over a year which allowed me to learn dogs behavior well. I have lived with and taken care of dogs my whole life. I also walk dogs for a humane society. I am currently going to school for animal care. I am currently working a part time job and walking dogs for a Humane society. I walk the dogs at the humane society Tuesday-Thursday 6:30-9:30am. My part time job depends on when I get hours when I do it’s normally between 10-4. When visiting a clients home I will always do exactly what the clients requests or what I am comfortable with doing. I always focus on good behavior when taking care of dogs as well.

“Rylie was purrrrrfect! Took great care of the kittties and house while I was out of town for a week. Sent updates regularly and was super responsive. So nice to be able to go on vacation and know the fur babies are being loved the whole time!”


About: I have 15+ years of professional pet care experience through shelter, boarding, dog daycare and rescue experience. I previously managed a large scale, highly awarded facility in Madison. I can offer a vast amount of knowledge to make sure your pet not only has a great time while you are away but also is safe and well card for. I offer walks and drop in visits Tuesdays, Thursdays and weekends. Walks can be in your own neighborhood, at a nearby trail location of your choosing or off leash at my rural home in our 1.75 acre fenced in yard. (Additional travel fees may apply for locations other than your home.) Your pup will come home tired from not only physical exercise but also from mental stimulation as I will encourage them to use their sniffer and their brain with basic obedience. We also offer a limited amount of dog sitting in our home. Dogs must be dog, cat and people friendly. We are unable to accept pets with known separation anxiety. We require a one night trial for any new pets wishing to stay for more than 2 days for their first visit. I look forward to meeting your and your pet! I work a part time job on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Boarding pets must be okay with a 7 hour day those three days, but other days are much shorter or someone is home all day. At our meet and greet we will discuss safety protocols for getting your pet inside and outside safety as well as ensure they have a collar/harness setup that is secure for walks.

About: I had pets my whole life, cats and dogs, so I know what they need. Love, cuddles, and attention! I have a beautiful and sassy calico cat who is good with other animals and a sweet Corgi named Georgia who loves making new friends!! I am a grad student at UWM. I live in an apartment but there are amazing walking trails and a dog park close by! You’re dogs will have lots of room to play!! Dogs will go with me on walks every night and played with to get all the zoomies out! Cats will get lots of cuddles and pets while I spend my evenings at home. Either dog or cat will be well taken care of! My pets have always been well taken care of. They are fed, cuddled, clean, and given all the love. In my home you can promise your pet will be on their own vacation while you are on yours! If sitting at your house is preferred, have peace of mind knowing your pet will be let out every morning and evening, be walked, and given plenty of playtime in the evening!

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!

About: Hi, I’m Bri! I’ve grown up around cats and dogs and have experience with all kinds of personalities — from cuddly lap cats to high-energy pups. These days, I help care for my boyfriend’s Lab, Pit mix, and German Shepherd, and I’ve also spent time sitting for friends’ and family pets. I offer flexible drop-ins and dog walks that can fit into your schedule. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a little playtime, or some company while you're out, I’m here to help. I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your pets — I treat every one like my own. I’d love to connect and see if I’m a good fit for you and your furry friend! I have a flexible schedule and can usually fit in walks or drop-ins during the day, especially mid-morning, lunchtime, or early evenings. If you have a specific time in mind, feel free to reach out — I’ll do my best to find a time that works for both of us! When caring for pets in their home, I always respect your space and routines — it’s important to me that both you and your pets feel comfortable. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and medications to preferred walking routes and routines. I take safety seriously on walks too, using secure leashes and keeping a close eye on surroundings to avoid distractions or unsafe situations. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience or just someone calm and reliable, I’m here to help them feel at ease. You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away — I treat every pet like my own and every home with care.

About: I have taken care of pets for a majority of my life. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, care for, and play with their pets in many instances. Growing up I also owned my own dog that I would care for. Spending time with animals brings me joy and I treat them all with endless love! I am currently a college student majoring in nursing and I am looking for another side job in addition to my CNA job. I love all animals and think this is the perfect opportunity. I live in a quiet community with plenty of area to walk the dogs. I can also easily kennel dogs if necessary. I do not have any other animals in the home.

“Cara did an excellent job with my three animals. I even have an oddity, a miniature pot bellied pig, and she did great with her. She sent pictures with each visit and you can tell she played with them. I came home to very happy animals.”
