“She was incredibly accommodating and kind! I had overestimated my arrival time by an hour and she stayed up late for me, I will definitely be using her services again.”


“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”


About: 🐾 Buddy’s Boarding — Where Pets Feel at Home Hi! We're Percy and Darik — two experienced pet lovers offering premium dog boarding from our home in Brown Deer. One of us is home full-time, giving us the flexibility to provide reliable, personalized care for every pup we host. 🐶 Why pet parents love Buddy’s Boarding: • Spacious yard with a partially fenced area for play and potty breaks • Flexible pick-up/drop-off times with clear communication • Convenient location — just 10 minutes from I-43 and Hwy 41 • Quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with sidewalks and green space • Two attentive, dog-experienced sitters under one roof • Access to a dog-friendly pool (summer months only, supervised, optional) ✨ Our Story Buddy’s Boarding is named after the dog that started it all. At 10 years old, I found Buddy as a stray near my dad’s business and begged my mom to let us keep him. She said yes — and from that moment on, my bond with animals was sealed. That connection still fuels the love and care we give every dog who stays with us. Whether your pup is active and playful or chill and cuddly, we tailor each stay to their needs. Let us know your dog’s routine and preferences — we’re happy to accommodate. We can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home. 🐾 👉 Send us a request to get started — we’d love to meet your pup! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine. My partner Darik works from home as a graphic designer, so there’s always someone present to supervise and care for the dogs. I work part-time as a dog handler in the mornings, which means I bring both experience and structure to our day. Between the two of us, we’re able to give pets plenty of attention, play, and potty breaks throughout the day — with flexibility for early drop-offs, midday walks, and evening wind-downs. It’s a rhythm that’s built around making dogs feel safe, happy, and at home. Safety We prioritize safety by pet-proofing our home, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and supervising pets at all times. Whether it’s backyard play or a leashed walk, we ensure dogs are always in secure, pet-friendly environments. We also tailor safety measures to each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Trust Building trust with both pets and their people is at the heart of what we do. We take time to understand each dog’s routine and preferences, and we maintain regular communication with pet parents — sharing updates and photos so they always feel connected and confident in our care. Environment Our home is clean, cozy, and designed with dogs in mind — with plenty of space to move, comfy spots to rest, and loving attention throughout the day. We create a calm, positive environment and adjust our approach to meet each dog where they’re at. If we’re caring for pets in their home, we follow their routine closely to ensure they feel safe, secure, and comfortable in their own space.

About: I've had dogs most of my life. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is 3 years old and loves a friend. I have an 11 year old daughter that will also provide lots of love. Your dog won't just be boarded, they'll become a part of the family. No kennels necessary, they can sleep with me! I'm a stay at home mom. I love taking my dog out for walks around my quiet, dog friendly neighborhood. I'm home almost all the time. I'd love another doggy friend to visit us! I have tie outs for the dogs when they'd like fresh air. We go on walks as needed....and we can walk more if your dog loves it like mine does!


“Jan was great! She knew I was concerned that my sometimes reactive doggie might misbehave in a new place but Jan sent me an update right away to let me know she was doing well. She sent messages and pics throughout the day for reassurance, even though I didn’t ask her to.”



“We love having Louie stay with Auria….he comes home happy and having him with other dogs has clearly made him more social at home and in the neighborhood. Auria is our “go-to sitter!”


“This was my first pet sitting experience, and my first time using Rover. Vicki was awesome and took great care of little Gracie. Her house was neat, and a good place for my little dog to hang out for the day.”


About: I have had dogs and cats of my own. I’ve helped family and friends with dog sitting. I have also grown up with dogs, so I understand the care that goes into them! It’s definitely a daily routine I get into just like with the kids. Feeding, play time, rest time; everything from taking care of the kids and pets all flows together. Treating them like family. They have all their trust in you so we need to respect that. Get them in their and/or keep them in their routine; feeding, outside time, etc.

“Cindy and her family were great with Gus! Gus could be anxious in a new environment at times but he seemed to fit right in at Cindy's place. Cindy took him on several walks and sent pictures and messages throughout the day. She is so kind and caring. Will definitely use Cindy again!”


“Katie was wonderful with Ollie! Her dog Millie is a great (mellow) role model for him, as he's still a puppy and can get excitable. Katie was warm and welcoming and Ollie came back every night happy, fed, and tired - the perfect dog. I highly recommend Katie.”

About: I have worked with many types of animals my entire life. I spent my younger years working on a farm with lots of farm animals. I’ve worked with almost every kind of dog. I’ve also been pet sitting every since I was a kid for family and neighbors I have currently just moved and am looking to start taking new clients!! I am free everyday at almost any time currently! I always have my phone on me and am available. I would care for your pet just as if it were my own!!

About: I have one husky dog that is 3 years old and she's a baby I love her so much she sleep with me at night she actually go everywhere I go she's very well trained and she loves to have company I work from home and ha e alot of free time so figured this job would be a great fit for me and I get to be around different dogs I have one girl dog her name is Sasha she's a husky she's 3 years old she walk three times a day actually she is very a free spirit she gets to run around all day she's very friendly she loves to play with other dogs

About: I have had multiple dogs through out my life. During high school my family had 4 dogs in the house which were 3 Labs and 1 Bully mix. Since my wife and I moved out we currently live with our doghter, Nala. We also recently adopted our cat, Neo who is sweet and loving towards other dogs. I usually take my dog out during the morning around 7am to 8 am, during the afternoon after the dogs have breakfast, once again during 4 or 5pm, and then one final time before we head to bed around 8pm or 9pm. This is a daily routine for Nala and myself that we have stuck to since she was a puppy and works great for us over all. We usually walk around the block or play in the background as sometimes she doesn't need to potty and just needs that outside enrichment. I currently have a fenced yard for the back yard if the dogs do plan to play. The only part that is not fenced up is the driveway, but for the most part Nala and I do walk so that she can get some steps in and also so she won't poop too much in the backyard. If I am visiting your home I will come respectfully and walk your dog with Nala or without what ever your preference is and also give a detailed check-in of your dog to put your mind at ease.

“Carolyn helped me feel at ease, leaving my four puppies with her. She was accommodating, communicated very well, and I would recommend her. She’s very knowledgeable, she’s friendly, and she truly loves the animals I will definitely rebook when I need a day sitter for both my dog and my fosters.”


About: I’ve been taking care of my cousin’s dog for years. I raised my brother’s dog from when he was a puppy. I have 3 of my own dogs who I have raised since puppyhood. Patience is key. Everyone deserves to be happy and live fulfilling lives! As a software engineer, I’m a remote worker with ample free time between meetings. I have the flexibility to play, walk, and take out pets during the work day. I already do this with my family’s dogs. Sometimes I get bored and go work at my brother’s and cousin’s house just so I can be with the dogs. They’re usually home alone during the workday too, so I know they enjoy my company as much as I enjoy theirs. Also, I’m an active person. Thus, any opportunity to be more active is great! Such as walking and playing. First, I’d read any instructions or special care left over by the client. I’d introduce myself to the pets and fulfill any of their immediate needs (food, water, potty breaks). I’d get the pets more comfortable with my presence before relaxing, whether that be logging into my remote job or watching Netflix. Of course, the pet has the freedom to be in the room with me. I’ll do my best to make sure all pets are comfortable and happy. They deserve to be.

About: With over 10 years of experience owning dogs, I am someone you can trust to love your furry friend when you are away. My love for animals drives me to create a safe, fun and positive environment for every pet in my care. I understand the importance of trust when leaving your beloved family members in someone else’s hands. You can rest assured that I am committed to their wellbeing, safety and happiness! I prioritize open communication and will keep you updated with regular photos and updates throughout my time with your pets! I am so excited to meet your loved ones and appreciate you trusting me with them! I work from home and am able to assist with drop-ins and walks during the day. If interested in doggy daycare I will be home the whole time your pup is with me. During the fall and winter I will be available more on the weekends! I own my home with my partner and we have a fenced in yard. If we are hosting your pup we can spend time in the yard, otherwise, my neighborhood is very walkable and there are many parks to explore nearby - my pup loves going for walks around our neighborhood! We spend a lot of the day playing fetch, using enrichment toys, cuddling and sniffing outdoors. All new friends visiting our home will require an additional meet and greet with our pets as well as a formal meet and greet with me to ensure everyone is comfortable!

Perseus M.
Star Sitter

“When I needed someone to care for my two dachshunds, two cats, and even my turtle while I was out of town for a work trip, Perseus stepped up without hesitation. I was initially nervous about leaving my pets, but knowing Perseus would be watching my babies put my mind at ease. He took the time to understand each animal’s unique needs—the dachshunds' love for belly rubs and short walks, the cats' different personalities and feeding schedules, and even how to properly care for my turtle’s tank. Not only was everything spotless when I returned, but my pets seemed calm and happy, which is the ultimate testament to how well they were cared for. Perseus has a natural connection with animals and goes above and beyond to ensure their comfort and safety. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him again and would wholeheartedly recommend him to any pet parent looking for someone dependable, kind, knowledgeable, and attentive.”

“Ali is such a sweetheart to our pups (well just in general)! When she cares for our two pups I don’t worry about their safety and well-being. I know they’re being loved on and she treats them like her own! I enjoy getting picture updates from her as well. She stays in our home with them when we’re gone and she takes such great care of it as well. I think she’s always leaves it in better shape than when we left! Ali is very dependable and trustworthy. We are so lucky to have her!”
