1. Katie M.

“Katie did a great job with our two dogs, one which is a senior and needs a lot of help! She sent us plenty of pics and even brought in our mail while we were away. She did an excellent job!”


2. Keisha P.

“We had Keisha stay for a 7 day sit for our dog and cat. Keisha was incredible and everything we could have ever wanted in a sitter! She sent us updates at least daily, sometimes more with pictures which is what we requested! I made an error and she was flexible with adding another day to her stay! Could not recommend her enough, we will definitely use her again in the future!!”


3. Emily S.

“Highly recommend Emily’s services!! She made our senior dog so comfortable during her 4 day in home pet sitting. We received daily updates & pictures, and we could tell how much our dog enjoyed spending time with her! It can be nerve wracking leaving a senior dog at home, but we were never worried about our dogs care and safety while we were gone and Emily was with him.”


4. Melissa H.

“Melissa is a great overnight dogsitter. She followed all the instructions for my dog and bullies have a lot of instructions. Ha! She provided updates everyday and you can tell she enjoys dogsitting. I came back to happy dog.”




5. Ashley W.

“Ashley was GREAT! I had a last minute trip pop up this weekend and she immediately responded to help me out. She even dropped what she was doing to come meet her that night! She was super responsive while I was away, and Brooklyn is worn out tonight- which I know is because she had so much fun! Thanks again, Ashley!”

16. Julia M.

“Julia was delightful to work with and so attentive to our 1 yr old German Shorthair Pointer, Ryker. They were together for almost 2 weeks in our home. She took great care of him and the house. She gave him plenty of outdoor walks and adventures, snuggle/cuddle time and lots of love. Ryker gives her 5 out of 5 bones 🍖 🍖 🍖 🍖 🍖 too! Will definitely use her again for walking or dog/house sitting.”


17. Enrique A.
“Enrique has been a true blessing for me and my anxious Bichon Frise. My dog is usually nervous around new people, but Enrique’s calming presence put him at ease right away. He’s incredibly reliable, caring, and treats my pup like family. I always have peace of mind knowing my dog is in Enrique’s hands. Highly recommend!”


18. Nikki G.

“Nikki was great! She answered our request promptly when we needed a sitter for our two Poms after our pre-arranged sitter we used to use said she couldn’t do our 1 day dog sitting. We were visiting from TN and wanted to attend the State Fair. We would have had to go two different days but this way we could be gone all day and know our dogs were in good hands. She arrived early to get to meet them and get instructions on walking, feeding and meds. She is a very sweet woman and your dogs will love her! If we come to WI with our dogs next year, I will try and book Nikki again!”


19. Kat K.
“Kat is a phenomenal care giver and all around amazing human. They have cared for our cats, dogs, and guinea pigs for several years and are extremely attentive, communicative, and kind. My family has complete trust in Kat and will continue to use them to care for our pet family members forevermore.”

About: I've been passionate about animal care my whole life. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, lizards, snakes, and chickens. I understand that animals are like people, in that each of them are unique and have unique needs. Clear communication, attention to detail, and compassion are the cornerstones of my approach to pet car. I've personally owned cats with special needs, and I also have experience pet sitting senior dogs, puppies, and large dogs. If you're looking for a calm, relaible, and patient sitter who will love your furry friends like their own, then I'm your guy! I'm a freelance artist who works from home so my schedule is really flexible! The nature of my work allows me to prioritize your pets and adapt to whatever schedule you need. I think routine can be invaluable for pets, so I will communicate with you to find out what they're used to and comfortable with at home, so I can implement it as seamlessly and similarly as possible.
