About: I have taken care of dogs of my own for my whole childhood and have enjoyed taking care of friends when they are out of town, as well. I am a college student-athlete, so while I am busy some parts of the day, I have a lot of availability to take great care of your pets! I am great at following detailed instructions and can accommodate what I’m doing for what is best for your animal. I can watch animals in your home and can make some exceptions to watch in mine, depending on if I’m home or at school.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover & care taker. I also own a small business making healthy pet treats, so your special fur face will be spoiled! I have experience with reactive dogs, behavioral problems, senior animals, medical issues, & a wide variety of species. I base my care around the animals needs, not my schedule. I am patient, steady, & calm. I have loads of engagement toys, puzzles & activities to keep your pet happy & stimulated. I have a very flexible schedule & work from home, so I can adjust around you & your pets' needs whether it's early morning, last minute, or before bed. I do not have a fenced yard, so I do not leave dogs outside at my home. I walk & take park trips multiple times a day. I have 3 dogs & a cat who are used to new friends visiting. I do not crate my dogs in my home, but am happy to in your home.
“Steve has amazing personality and my cat warmed up to him automatically. I feel safe leaving my meowies with him and looking forward to how he’ll develop his bonding with the rest of when I am gone.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—growing up in a home full of fish, birds, cats, dogs, and rodents taught me early on that pets are family. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and attentive care. Today, I share my home with my friendly dog Birdie, who loves meeting new furry friends and makes a great playmate. My two kids are also passionate animal lovers, and together we create a safe, warm, and pet-friendly environment. I’m experienced in administering medications, whether pills, drops, or topical treatments, and I’m happy to support pets with special needs. I also offer daily walks for exercise and enrichment, and I’m comfortable with crate training if it’s part of your routine. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or relaxed, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I work full-time during the week, but on my weekends off, I love spending my time caring for animals. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and I’m excited to offer reliable, loving support to fellow pet parents when I’m available. Whether it’s weekend drop-ins, walks, or cuddles while you’re away, I’m here to help give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully pet-friendly and thoughtfully pet-proofed to ensure a secure environment. I use baby gates to create designated pet areas, so dogs can have their own space or be kept out of certain rooms when needed. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Fresh water is always available in multiple areas of the home to keep pets hydrated throughout the day. Whether your pet loves to run or relax, they’ll have a secure, comfortable, and caring space to enjoy.

About: My wife and I have extensive experience with animals, having run dog boarding services and worked at dog daycares. I grew up with various animals, including six dogs, and have always cared for them with love and respect. We’re confident in handling any situation that may arise while caring for pets and treat them like family. Our multi-level home near Dane County Airport offers plenty of space for pets to play and relax, including a large backyard with a 6-foot privacy fence. My wife and I both have flexible work schedules, so someone is almost always home with our pups! We will try our best to accommodate any special needs for scheduling. We have a fenced in large yard and two friendly dogs to play with yours! We also have secure gates to section off our home if needed and multiple sizes of crates if your pup is crate trained and/or sleeps in a crate.

7. Laura S.
“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”

10. Christine W.
“Your pet will truly be in the best of care with Christine. You could not ask for a better person who knows so much about pet care! She has personally loved such.a wide variety of pets with such compassion, that whether you have a dog, cat, beta fish or fancy rats, she will do everything she possibly can to insure they are well cared for. I lived with Christine for several years, and during the time we were together, I saw how much care she put in to each and every pet member of our household, whether or not she was the "owner" of the pet or if their care was her "responsibility." She even has vet assistance and grooming experience so you know your pet is in good hands! Having lived with Christine and seen her dedication to responsible pet ownership day in and day out, I know from experience that you can trust that she will give extra consideration and genuine care to your pets.”
