About: We have over 20 collective years of pet caring experience and currently have a 5 year old Bichon, August, that we love to spoil. We adopted our 14 year old poodle, Scrappy, from a local shelter. So, we have plenty of senior dog experience, in case your baby takes medication daily. We understand the concern of leaving your pet at a kennel as we, like many others, have had bad experiences in the past. We just moved into our new home and have plenty of room for your fur baby. Our community is very pet friendly and has a huge dog park where your dog can run around with other dogs, play on the agility course or relax in the shade under one of the many trees. Not only will we take your pooch out regularly, but we will send pictures frequently. We will treat your dog like it's our own! We both look forward to taking care of your dog!
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 most days of the week. I currently have week day availability Tuesday - Thursday 2pm or later and any time Friday - Sundays. 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. I also offer a limited amount of Pet Sitting services in customer homes only. I am not able to sleepover in customer homes due to having pets/children of my own but can offer house sitting on a drop in basis and make multiple, extended visits to your home daily at your preferred times. I look forward to meeting your and your pet! I work a part time job Monday - Thursday. Pet sitting clients must be okay with a 7 hour day those days, but other days are much shorter. 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 will absolutely spoil and love your pets like they are my own! I am a recent graduate from UW-Madison in Wildlife Ecology where I gained animal experience. I also graduated from Madison College with an Associate Degree for Veterinary Technician. I worked in the veterinary field for over a year before attending UW-Madison. I take pride in my ability to care for animals and the love I have for them. My schedule is currently completely open to take care of and spoil all the pets I can. I have a Chocolate Labrador named Jake that would need to come with me when house sitting. He is good with dogs and cats. I might not have a fenced yard, but there is so much space near my apartment for dogs to play and run. There is also a trail close by that I have taken my dog on, which she loves. I have a truck that can transport them. If I am caring for pets in the client's home I have no issue with taking them out to play or on walks. I absolutely love being around pets.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for much of my adult life and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. In the past, I’ve house and pet sat for friends and family, but now that I have two loving dogs of my own, I only offer drop in visits or walks. My dogs are my family, and yours will be treated with the same love and kindness that I show my own. I have a hybrid work schedule that allows me to work from home half of the week. I’m able to dedicate my morning, mid day break, or afternoon and evening to caring for your pet. I am comfortable offering walks, cuddles, drop in visits, feedings, oral medication or prescription administration and any other activity your pet may need in your absence.
“Rylie was fantastic watching our 7 month old, high energy pup! We appreciated her flexibility with our schedule and consistency!! I’ll be asking her again to watch our little guy!”
About: I have helped take care of animals ever since I was 5. Over the years, I have dog sat for friends and neighbors along with providing support when needed. I have never not had a pet and have always made sure to do my research to ensure I am treating any pet in the best way possible along with ensuring what is and isn’t safe for different animals. I have many friends that come to me first when they need help, especially with their animals. Many of my friends have called me a dog whisperer. I currently work full time from home as an accountant. I tend to be home most weekends and my hours make it very easy to fit any animal into my schedule. I have a rabbit currently at my home and my neighbors have a dog, cats, and chickens. I would always make sure that the animal is supervised as I know how important a pet is and the responsibility necessary to ensure it stays safe.
About: I love playing with and keeping dogs active and healthy, and love to treat them like they’re my own. I really like going for walks, to the park, or wherever it is that makes them smile and have fun! I have been taking care/sitting for various friends dogs for a few years, and for my moms dog since I moved out, whenever she needs help. I also had numerous dogs growing up, and have a puppy now! I am very flexible and eager to please, and I love to help anyone out to make their and their dogs lives easier/better.*while you’re on a fun vacation away, your dog will be on a fun vacation back home with me!* I teach September-June during the day so I can let out before and after work, and during the summer I am free all day long!! I always provide a gentle and calming presence when visiting a pet’s home. I want to make sure they are comfortable with my being there, so patience and calmness is something I find really important. Of course if they’re happy to play and get snuggles, I am happy and SO willing to do that too! That’s my favorite.

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: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. My father was a German Sheppard breeder when I was growing up. I was always hands on when helping with the puppies, ensuring that we helped raise good family dogs. I was a supervisor at a large doggy daycare and boarding facility until recently when I decided to branch off. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I currently have 3 wonderful dogs of my own and foster kittens when with my husband when we are needed. I will always treat your fur baby with the same love, care, and patience as I do my own. After all, I wouldn’t expect anything less than that for my babies.
About: Graduate from University of Wisconsin-Whitewater with a BA in Corporate Communications and Human Resource Management. I balanced 2-3 jobs all 5 years of college... and dog-sitting was my escape job! It is the absolute best. It has been one of the best decisions of my life. Not only do I get to watch your amazing animals, but I get to meet so many great people/owners while doing so. (I am an animal lover! I have been surrounded by them my whole life. At my moms we lived on a farm having dogs, cats, cows, and pigs. At my dads we've always had dogs and a couple cats! I've also had experience fostering puppies while growing up. ) I have been dog-sitting/house-sitting on Rover for almost 6 years now and I can say its been a great experience and I love doing it on the side while working remotely for Kohls Corporate. Not only do I have clients on Rover, but I also have had many clients through word of mouth in surrounding areas of my hometown (Jefferson, WI). I would love to take care of your fur babies, I am very well organized, responsive, and experienced in time-management! You can trust that they will be given the best care possible :) I work remotely for Kohls Corporate, which gives me the opportunity to be there whenever for your pet. I can be present caring for your dog all day while working from my laptop from home! I have a cat at home. She is very spoiled. She enjoys her cat tree watching birds outside and her many naps. I’m home all day every day usually so she gets plenty of attention. While Dogsitting working from home will allow me to provide the best attention and care for your pets!
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.

Samantha R.
“Sammy and I worked together for about a year at a large doggy daycare and boarding kennel. Sammy is a huge animal lover and is incredible empathetic to dogs' needs. She was always the first to let management know if a dog was sick, injured, etc. and did everything she could to try to make them feel better. She is also well-versed in dog body language and in supervising play with multiple dogs. Sammy is great at communication with dogs and their owners. She has pets of her own, so she understands what important things people want to know about their animal when the owner isn't around. Sammy rescues barn kittens who have been abandoned by their mothers and cares for them. I am lucky enough to have adopted one of the kitties, and he is incredibly healthy and well-adjusted. I would trust Sammy with my own pets any time!”
