Top rated Madison cat sitters
“Amanda was so sweet! She took really good care of our cats and I could tell she cared about them. She also brought in our deliveries for us. I’d totally forgotten Chewy was coming. 😅 We get a giant bag of dog food for our Great Dane, they must have been so heavy! The cat nip was also a nice touch. 5 stars across the board!”
“Mike was great with my pets from the start. I think they may have been disappointed to see me return! Mike communicated well, is very reliable and my dogs and cat loved him”
“Dana is a gem! She took incredible care of my cats and made my place look better than when she showed up! She thoroughly cleaned all the litter and made friends with my cat and always got freshwater as well… Like clockwork every morning and evening… 10 stars as far as I’m concerned! Thank you so much, Dana… Highly highly recommend her!”
“Madi was lifesaver! She was able to make quick plans to watch our kitty and she showed him so much love when we were out of town. She's a great communicator and sent us the most adorable pictures!”
“Cecilia is the best… having her watch my two kitties was the first time I felt totally at ease. I actually dread some trips because I hate leaving my babies, but Cecilia was instantly good with them (picture: animal lover) and went above and beyond while I was gone (ie: swept the floor when things spilled, took in mail, sent a TON of pictures). I could tell the boys had lots of love while I was gone, which was such a relief. I came home to 2 happy, healthy cats. Cecilia’s our go-to kitty sitter now, I can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Ashley always takes such great care of our cats and she even noticed our freezer leaking when we were gone! It always give us peace of mind when Ashley is available to check in on the kitties!!”
“Eryca was so good with our silly cat. She communicated frequently and checked in to make sure we had peace of mind while away. She even brought our cat some extra toys.”
“Sarah is a gem. She’s great with our cats. from her visit summaries and pictures, you can tell that she really treats our animals with love and care. We will always rebook🤗”
“Heather did a meet & greet the day before we had her scheduled. She was a great fit for our two Golden Retrievers. She completed both visits including notes and pictures. We will definitely use Heather again!”
“Karen is fantastic! It was a hectic time during my departure and she was so sweet and understanding. I felt so comfortable leaving Oscar with her. A+!”
“Claire took great care of our cats two separate weekends while we were away. She’s always on time, responsive, and the kitties were happy and healthy upon our return!”
About: I grew up with 5 dogs, 3 labs and 2 shitzu mixes. Their energy, love and playfulness brightened all my days. I will forever miss them. My love for dogs led me to volunteer with Wags and Walks and to babysit my dog niece Phoebe. Is it a good walk if you don’t stop to pet every dog you meet? I am a career IT. I started out as an IT in the Navy, after I got sick and was discharged I decided to pivot to work doing things I love and that fulfill me. I started out volunteering, pet/house sitting for friends and realized this is what I would like to do full time until I can transition into culinary school. I have nothing but love for all animals, tenderness for their people and a passion to make their time on Earth the absolute best! While I cannot host your animals, I pride myself on being able to anticipate animals needs! No ask is too complex to me because every animal’s needs are important and deserve to be tailored.
“Gavin did such a great job taking care of our cat, Louie! As a Rover sitter myself, I tend to be very picky with who I let watch my pets and I will definitely be using Gavin again!!”

Remington P.
“Remington has been one of the best pet sitters we have ever found and will always be using her if she’s available! Our 2 dogs were absolutely obsessed with Remington when we came home and probably could have cared less if we came back or not. The best feeling honestly, knowing our fur babies were in great hands. Not only did Remington care for our pets but she was totally willing to keep with my watering schedule for my indoor and outdoor plants. Our home was treated with respect and was neat and tidy when we got back. You cannot go wrong using Remington as your pet sitter. You and your pets will all agree!”
