Pet care experience

Belly rubs, walks, and lots of love

I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently have two of my own...Tripp and Lilly! Dogs are such an important part of my life, and I’ll care for your pup like they’re one of my own. I always go above and beyond to make sure dogs feel safe, loved, exercised, and happy while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or extra attention, I’m committed to providing the best care possible. I also have a reliable vehicle and can transport dogs to local dog parks if they need more exercise than a walk can provide or if you don’t have a yard available. I work full-time in Madison Monday through Friday during standard business hours, so I may not be the best fit for services that require potty breaks or walks during those times. However, I do occasionally have flexibility in my schedule and may be able to accommodate certain requests, so please don't hesitate to ask if I can make it work. My evenings and weekends are typically very flexible and available. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I’d love to chat and see if I’d be a good fit for your pup! :)

Phillip did an amazing job again! Otso loves him and I appreciate the daily pictures of my puppers. The pictures are so well shot, I may have framed one haha. Thank you again Phillip!

Phillip is seriously the best. We had to change our plans last minute because of the wildfire smoke and he didn't miss a beat. My dog has pretty frequent anxiety accidents and Phillip just takes it all in stride, super patient and never makes a big deal out of it. Every single time he watches our pup and cat, he's great. Can't recommend him enough!

As always, another great sitting! Phillip has sat our old gal several times, she has a hard time with accidents when we are gone (and Phillip never makes us feel like she’s an inconvenience, even though it’s a lot of cleaning). This time, Wiggles was comfortable enough to eat solid food with him (has never happened before with a sitter!) and that’s a true sign of how safe she must feel! Great pics and a happy dog, thanks Phillip!

Phillip is great! He is very conscientious and did well with managing complicated feeding and medication instructions for my two dogs. I would definitely recommend him!

Phillip did an amazing job with Otso and left the house spotless after the house sitting. Thank you for watching, Otso-man who may be pining at the moment. I hope it is him pouting that I left or I may need to get jealous, haha
