“Lynelle was very patient, responsive, and caring towards our puppy. She was also quick to respond to our messages. Highly recommend! Thank you! 😊”

About: I’ve been a cat parent for 8 years and currently have three cats, each with their own personality and needs! One takes daily oral medication, and another has cerebellar hypoplasia (a wobbly cat). I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, which gave me experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities. I work Monday-Friday from 8 AM - 5 PM. If you are near Monona, I may be able to stop in around lunchtime; otherwise, after 5 PM. I have more flexibility on weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow routines and instructions closely, respect your home, and give your pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me.

About: I have 2 large rescues that have been a part of my family for the last 9 years. When I lived in apartments, I helped watch other neighbors' dogs and always enjoyed getting to know them and learn about their routines, hobbies, and quirks. While my family never had a dog growing up, I love being around them now and could never go back to a life without them! Since I work part time at a local farm, and am only just getting my own farm up and running, I have a relatively flexible schedule from week to week, especially during the winter, early spring, and late fall. I am thorough when it comes to taking care of my dogs' health and safety, as well as the health and safety of all pets that are in my care. I am always vigilant about traffic while walking dogs near any roads, and am always careful of walking them near other animals. When in another's home I am respectful of boundaries and rules and always clean up after myself or any messes that a pet may make.

“Logan is dependable, trustworthy, and knowledgeable about dogs! My dogs are pretty crazy and Logan handles both of them wonderfully…I can notice they listen to me better since Logan has been caring for them. His wife is just as awesome and sometimes covers or comes with.”

About: I love dogs and puppies and when I bought my home I was looking for a huge yard that was fenced in for dogs to play in. It also came with a dog door and ramp! Very dog friendly! My foster dogs and sitting made me become more aware of dog and puppy needs from playing, walking and cuddling! I also love to be outside so if your pup likes to explore I would love to take them on a hike or downtown! I currently have a flexible schedule and work from home. I do run errands where I may need to crate however I will discuss with you before hand. Your pup would be my priority! I have a fenced in yard and puppy door so if your dog is independent and wants more time outside they can safely do so. If not I can play in the yard or walk them in the neighborhood, park or downtown.

“Our Great Dane loves Ben. He has had great communication with us during all of his walks and has made sure that Bruno has “done his business” in the mornings. He is our favorite walker”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a long walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home. I’m active and love being outdoors, so I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks and give them plenty of exercise and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to give mine. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, and care routines, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to fit pet care into my week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention.

“Elizabeth was great with our dog Cash giving us updates with pictures and giving him nice long walks. Will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”

“Emma was great! We had an issue where Rover had the wrong address for my house and she went above and beyond to make sure my dog was walked!”

About: Hi! I’m Emily. 😊 And I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up with multiple cats and dogs in my home. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets when they’ve needed help over the last thirty years or so. I have also worked at a dog kennel where I walked and bathed dogs of all sizes and breeds. And I currently volunteer for the Humane Society where I interact with animals regularly. 😌 I provide doggy daycare - not overnight care - as my cat does not tolerate it well. And I work a 9 to 5 schedule Monday through Friday and I’m fully remote so I have plenty of time to regularly take dogs outside, out into my fenced in yard or to take them for both short and longer walks. I can dog sit any day though I do volunteer for the Humane Society on Friday evenings so they don’t work for me. Also, my rate is for six hours or less and then I charge an additional $5/hour for each hour after that FYI. I have a fenced in yard and can easily crate your dog if desired. I currently have one cat who has lived with a dog in the past, though I typically separate her in what I call her upstairs “kitty apartment” anyway. 😌 I provide doggy daycare - not overnight care - as my cat does not tolerate it well.

“Gives Mowgli lots of love and is so easy to communicate with!!!”

About: Hello, my name is Katy and I would love to care for your dog! I just finished a term with AmeriCorps and now work part-time in the service industry. My flexible schedule means I am free to walk or watch your pup! I understand that caring for your dog means understanding their individual needs. Please don't shy away from telling me your dog's specific needs and quirks. I want to make caring for your dog a great experience for both pet andowner. I bring passion and professionalism to this job and absolutely enjoy what I do. I have had dogs all my life and currently have an elderly chihuahua. Because of his health concerns and age, I'm not currently boarding dogs at my home. However, I would love to walk and sit your pups and can assure they will get attentive and safe care.

About: I grew up with dogs, ranging from Newfoundland’s to French bulldogs so it is safe to say I have experience with all sizes of dogs. You can trust me to not only keep your dog safe, but to keep them happy and healthy. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. Would love to spend more time with animals, and can make most things work with my schedule. I am looking forward to helping keep your pet active and well cared for! I am located in the Atwood neighborhood, north east madison. I’m available for dog walking, pet check ins, and in home pet sitting if you’re away for a trip or work. Your pet will be safe and cared for with me. I prefer to care for the pets in your home as I currently am in a rental that does not allow pets. Also this will keep your pet most comfortable / in their routine.

“Madi was able to book a short-notice walk for our dog when we had an emergency. He had a great time. We would love for Madi to walk Dizzy again!”

“Hillary did an amazing job walking my shy pup and quickly won her over! In addition to being amazing with my dog, Hillary did and excellent job communicating with me about how my dog did on their walks, tactics she used to help build up my dog's confidence, and Hillary even helped clean up a potted plant that my dog had knocked over one day. I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”

Hannah L.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. My Dad went to school to be a Veterinarian, so we have always been around different animals. I have two cats at home, and recently just lost my beloved dog, Lexi! I currently work as a flight instructor so my schedule is very flexible! I typically start later in the day or early in the morning. Plenty of time to help out!! I can walk, feed, clean-up after any pets. I have no preference, little, big, cats and dogs. I am able to understand pets all have very special needs and want to fulfill those.

“If I could give Emily a million stars I would! She was very communicative during her entire stay and sent SO MANY pictures!! Seriously, nothing made my day more at work than getting the picture of my dog AND kitties!! Very attentive to any need. I will always book Emily for future needs!”

About: Growing up my parents would not allow me to get a dog. I walked the neighbors dogs and they said that was the same as having my own. Not really. Lol. Since grade school I have watched friends and family's dogs over the course of weekends, and multiple week vacations. I have always wanted a dog but I don't have the time currently due to my career. I have two cats. Baloo the panther looking cat, and Bubba, a pure bred benegal. I have an 8 month old daughter and my fiancée is a teacher, so I need to schedule well in advance. I would love to build a client base for walking in my neighborhood. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions or concerns prior to booking. Thanks for taking the time to review my profile! I work full-time from home. Depending how far away the pet is, I could possibly check in most times of the day during the week. I would be free most weekends. I am basically looking to build a client base in my neighborhood. I have been responsible for pets my whole life. Safety is number one to me. I would treat your fur baby like my own. Ask away
