“We were very happy with the communication and attention to detail while watching bella. Not only did she take great care of our dog but also our house 🧡 we would definitely recommend her and use her in the future”


“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”



“We can’t say enough good things here. We had a really bad boarding experience and needed to do something different. We were a little hesitant with having someone in our home but Blythe was awesome. We have a large dog who is pretty needy and a little old man. She took pics, gave us updates and did everything we asked and our home looked the exact way we left it. Would highly recommend!”



“We were so happy to have Carole staying at our house and taking care of our puppy! We were sent many updates and assured that our dog had been well taken care of. Thank you!”



“Ashley was GREAT! I had a last minute trip pop up this weekend and she immediately responded to help me out. She even dropped what she was doing to come meet her that night! She was super responsive while I was away, and Brooklyn is worn out tonight- which I know is because she had so much fun! Thanks again, Ashley!”


“Megan was so great! We got lots of pics and videos and our pups were happy and chill when we got back, even after it being too cold to go outside much. Will definitely call again - thanks!”


“Maiah is great and my dogs love her! Rebooking her again!”


“Lynette was responsible, reliable, and so sweet to our pups. She made sure they had food and plenty of attention. She’s sent great photos and we would absolutely trust her with our dogs again!”


“Adrienne was absolutely amazing. I have never had someone dog sit in my home before as I was never comfortable with it, but Adrienne I could tell was a trustworthy person from the start. I have one extremely hyper puppy and a senior who barely leaves her bed, and she did an amazing job watching both. She went above and beyond what I could of asked of her, and we will most definitely use her in the future.”


“Berenice was an excellent sitter. My first time working with her was for an extended period of time and I came home to a clean house and happy, healthy dogs. My two pitties are not trained well on a leash and she did well walking them despite that. She left me at ease while on my trip with daily communication and pictures. We already have our next stay booked with her! Thank you Berenice! 💕”


“Melissa is a great overnight dogsitter. She followed all the instructions for my dog and bullies have a lot of instructions. Ha! She provided updates everyday and you can tell she enjoys dogsitting. I came back to happy dog.”


“Jessica was great! Our emotionally needy animals soaked up her attention and loved on her right back. Super great communication throughout the stay, and lots of great photos. Thanks again, Jessica!”


“Joanne and Becky were great for watching shlomo and we highly recommend! He was able to keep his usual routine while she worked from home and we got tons of communication! Shlomo seemed very happy and we would absolutely book again”


“Devon did an awesome jobs taking care of our pups! She cared about them like they were her own and made sure they were comfortable the whole time we were away.”


“Emily is incredible with my senior dog, Bernie. She's gentle and patient and is understanding of the unfortunate accident or 2 requiring clean up on some visits. I have peace of mind knowing she will be there for Bernie!”


“Jo is simply the best sitter out there! She takes care of my dog so well and treats him like a king. He has his own vacation when I’m gone and I could not recommend Jo enough to take care of your furry family. I know mine already misses her!”


“Alexy and Christian watched my two dogs and cat at my place while I was out of the country. They were very patient with my 14 year old Chihuahua and labradoodle cattle dog mix. Both dogs can take a little while to warm up to others, they understood this and took great care of them. Lots of pictures, videos and communication throughout. Also left the house nice and clean.”


About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and currently have 2 of my own: Roger (a 4 year old greyhound) and Murphy (a 4 year old Shi-tzu) both rescues. I also am a “cat-lady” convert after living with my partner’s cat for over a year now 😊 For my day job, I’m a speech therapist working with preschoolers, so you can trust me when I say I have lots of patience and experience with a variety of different personalities 😆😉. I have always loved animals and would treat your 4-legged loved one with the same care and attention I do my own. *please feel free to contact me about services that may not align with my posted availability! I may be able to make an exception :) I work full time in Milwaukee Public Schools so I am available evenings and weekends for care. In the summer I work part time for the district just Tuesday- Thursday from 7:30 am to 1pm, so evenings and weekends are open :) I am able to do walk and home visits in your home if you are in or near the Bayview Neighborhood of Milwaukee which is where I live as well :)

“We loved having Vilma take care of our cat Ozzie! She sent lots of updates with pictures and was extremely responsive to our messages. We were away for two weeks and Vilma made sure Ozzie got tons of treats and attention. We were able to relax knowing Ozzie was in good hands. Thank you Vilma!”


“Laurie was absolutely amazing. We have a special needs dog (along with dog 2) and with a business trip for both of us, we had Laurie do overnights while we were gone. The dogs were well taken care of, our home was well taken care of and we couldn't be happier. The special needs dog was not anxious or "out of sorts" at all. Highly recommend Laurie and will use her again ourselves.”

Jo is simply the best sitter out there! She takes care of my dog so well and treats him like a king. He has his own vacation when I’m gone and I could not recommend Jo enough to take care of your furry family. I know mine already misses her!

Maggie was amazing! She followed our instructions and gave us awesome updates about our fur babies while we were away! Both our dog and cat took to her and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing everything at home was well taken care of by Maggie!

I couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of my dog. Sent me photos & checked in with me frequently. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my dog was in good hands.

Michaela did a great job showing up for my pups. I hardly ever leave them for a week but Michaela handled it like a champ!

I couldn't be happier with my experience! Margaret was amazing with Theo — attentive, communicative, and clearly a true dog lover. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When I came home Theo didn't even want Maragret to leave! I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust, and I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!

This is our first time using Rover and I am so glad that Lily was the one to watch Rosie. She did a great job keeping us updated, sending pictures and it looks like she and Rosie had a blast. She even did a little training for us. I highly recommend Lily and we will definitely use her again in the future.

Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!

Lanaya was wonderful and very kind. She sent timely updates and looked after my dog and apartment very well. I highly recommend her and will book her service again in the future.

This was my first time leaving Raya with anyone other than family and I was SO nervous, but Molly eased every nerve and fear that I had! She was so sweet with my girl and kept me updated along the way and I truly cannot thank her enough!

Absolutely wonderful!!! Claire is very reliable, communicative and sends the best photos. Most importantly, Charlie adores her and she adores him right back!!! I am so happy and feel extremely confident leaving him in her care. Will book her again without hesitation!🩷

My pups were SO well taken care of. Even though Joanne knew I was busy on my wedding day while she was taking care of my dogs, she still made sure to send me updates throughout the night and it made me feel so much more at ease. I'll definitely be booking with them any time I go out of town!!

I luuuuv Alexy & Christian! I use them primarily for drop ins, but decided to try house sitting this time. I was so nervous, but they are so great with Honey Bun and always respectful of my home, so I went ahead and booked it. They sent plenty of pictures, followed instructions to a T (per usual), and left the house exactly as they found it. Thanks, Y'all!

Reilly is an excellent sitter - she is communicative, nice & friendly, and my cat seems to really adore her. We highly recommend working with her!!

Susie took care of our dog Frankie and she is the absolute best sitter ever. the house looked untouched but most importantly Frankie was well cared for!!!

What is there not to say about Lisa? We worked out a time and day for her to meet Agent Cooper. Lisa was thorough with making notes and asking specific questions when it came to everything. I admit that I have a certain daily regimen when it comes to quality of care for Agent Cooper. And Lisa, completely, followed that regimen. Even on the first walk after I returned, my neighbor commented how wonderful it was to meet Lisa along one of Agent Cooper's walks. Lisa is truly a "Dog" Person. She sent daily pictures of Cooper to me, too, while I was away. My sister commented on one of the pictures with "He looks like he's smiling!" Without delay, I'm hiring Lisa whenever the next occurrence is that I cannot take Agent Cooper along as my travel companion. -Drew M.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Adrianne, I left for a week and she took great care of my boy. She send me pictures on a daily basis and always letting me know how my boy was doing, took him on walks twice a day which he absolutely needs. Came back to a clean house she took real good care of it, Thank you Adrianne for everything you did that week you are a great person and you took such good care of my boy which gave me peace of mind on my trip.

Emily was wonderful - communicative, friendly, and our dog and cat clearly loved her. She sent amazing pictures and updates and allowed us to feel completely relaxed about being away. Thanks, Emily!!!

Chris was GREAT with our puppy for a week while we were on vacation! Kuzco is a corgi puppy and can be very sassy. Chris was great with him and was able to get Kuzco to warm up to him very quickly. Chris took Kuzco on many walks and followed all notes left for him. He kept the house nice and clean as well. Chris made sure to send a few updates a day but was still considerate of letting us enjoy our vacation! Was very responsive when texted if we wanted an extra update. Will for sure be using him again!
