“Abby and Ian are great as always! I have trouble with buzzing them in sometimes, but they’re always willing to wait. I feel great knowing my pup Kit is getting the attention he deserves while I’m away, and I think he loves seeing them as much as me!”
“Laura has been absolutely phenomenal with the weekly recurring dog walks. She gained the trust of our skeptical Bernese mountain dog immediately, and of course our golden loves her. Highly recommend!”

About: I am home often and go for hikes a considerable amount. I've been around and owned dogs my whole life. I have a considerable amount of knowledge regarding dogs and cats and believe that I am fluent enough in their behaviors to be a great dog walker/sitter. I have lots of experience in training dogs too so I can help with any training services that may be needed. I believe dogs are important parts of any family and deserve the same love and care as a child would receive from a babysitter. Contact me anytime for your petcare needs and I will reply ASAP!!! Hello! I’m currently on an extended break from touring with the circus and looking to fill my days with hobbies. I want an excuse to get outside so dog walking is perfect. Especially since my dogs are staying in Ga this summer and I miss them loads. I will not be offering boarding at this time. I currently do not live where it is applicable. I am still available to house sit within my mile perimeter.
“Amazing. Professional! On time and sweet ❤️❤️”
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”
“Brittany has been walking our puppy twice a week for several weeks now and it’s been going swimmingly. Communication has been really good and it’s been such a weight off our shoulders to know that Brittany will be giving our dog a fun break in the middle of the day when we can’t be home. She sends photos and little updates to let us know how their walks went and those are really fun to see. Highly recommend Brittany!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I grew up dog sitting & cat sitting for neighbors as well as having dogs growing up! I am currently in graduate school at UW-Madison, so I am able to fit in pet care around that as well as my other part time job. I will make sure to always have your animal cared for in the way that you noted and the way that works best for them.
“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!”
About: As a child, I had both cats and dogs in the house and we frequently took in abandoned animals, treated their medical problems, and found them homes (sometimes, that ended up being OUR home!). I have been pet-sitting and doing drop-in visits for friends and neighbors since I was a teenager and I've never met an animal that I didn't get along with. I believe that all dogs can be good dogs if they're approached with patience and dedication. As an adult, I've fostered for rescue groups as well as volunteered, doing intake, cleaning, and assisting with medical treatment. I've done drop-in visits and house-sitting for animals with special needs that required medication, special feeding, or subcutaneous fluids. I have a close relationship with my vet and his staff as well as many other resources to help me make good decisions regarding caring for my own animals. I currently have a boxer/pitbull mix who was born in a foster home and adopted through Fetch rescue. I also have two cats and several fish currently in my home. If I'm house-sitting or doing drop-in visits for your dog(s), I don't mind checking in on other critters. I've had many different kinds of pets in my life. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions about me or my skills. I work part-time and I have a very flexible schedule, so I can make time to walk dogs together or individually. I feed my dog on a schedule when we're alone, but she adjusts easily when we have other dogs stay with us. I have a small fenced-in yard, which my is allowed to roam free in. We have a fairly quiet neighborhood to walk in, and we live close to a couple of dog parks. We have a crate, a folding corral, and baby gates to separate spaces if we need to. I have two large dog beds and several cat beds around the house.
“Maggie(Anna) is wonderful, she takes my pup on great walks while I'm away at work! Even when the weather sucks she's there to get her out, snuggle, or play as needed and I can tell she really understands my dog's quirks and charms.”
About: Recently, I moved back to Wisconsin after living in Munich, Germany with my husband and black lab (Reggie)! Our bottom level duplex is on the lake loop of Lake Monona, which is a great area to walk dogs! Reggie has loved the new area and the parks nearby as well. I grew up with multiple dogs at home, so I have many years of experience taking care of a variety of different dogs. I would love to take care of your pet! When pet sitting or walking -- I always make sure to take pets on long walks. I live near a few different park areas, so your pup will be well exercised! Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions! :) I am currently taking time off of work, so will have plenty of time to take care of your pet during the week and on weekends! I have a small yard where pups can use the bathroom, but will make sure to take them on walks for exercise. I have one dog at home to keep your pup company as well!
About: I've had dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. My last pup was a Weimaraner, who I had since a puppy. I lost my beloved Dacks this past fall and have been missing the companionship and walking partner but I'm not a space to get a new animal. I'd love to shower your pet with energy and love before I'm ready to get my next animal. My experience is mostly mammals and some fish, not reptiles. I have a flexible schedule with the freedom to watch animals on nights, weekends, and some weekdays. My current work schedule allows me to work from home or have flexible hours during the week if you need a long weekend away. I'm happy to stay overnight as needed. As someone who had a senior dog, I valued having someone able to stay over rather than taking my dog to another place overnight. I respect your routines and schedule. I also believe a tired dog is a happy dog, walks and outside time are a must. Dog parks are optional to your pet's needs.

You would be lucky to have her interact with and be a part of your dog's life! I couldn't recommend her more highly.”
19. Joshua R.
“Very communicative, accommodating, & friendly! Joshua is fantastic to work with. He stopped over for a one time drop in visit while I was on my way back from a work trip, and when my schedule just simply did not line up; I needed that extra hand. Joshua asked the right questions before and during the visit, and even shared photos during his drop-in, including a summary of Maggie's behavior! He gave me such piece of mind knowing my pup would be cared for. I highly recommend him!”
