Dog Boarding Tenney-Lapham

“Holly & Ana Maria were absolutely wonderful with our dog! He stayed with them for about a week and had the time of his life with their friendly dogs and cat. Holly & Ana Maria are kind and patient and were attentive to our dog’s needs (feeding schedule, walks, potty breaks, sleeping arrangement). They kept updating us about his meals, demeanor, and walks with cute pictures and messages. Our dog was very comfortable and happy with them for that week. We will definitely book them next time we are out of town. We entrusted them with our dog and they certainly delivered. We highly recommend them! 💙 Thank you Holly & Ana Maria for giving our dog love and care. He had a great time with his new human caretakers and animal friends!”

“Absolutely fantastic! Gave Odin so love, attention, and exercise! Gave updates throughout the week. Could not have asked for anyone better to care for my dog while I was away!”

“Jessica was great again. Understood that my dog like to try to escape and kept him safe and his tracking collar charged. I got pictures and updates everyday, I’d use her whenever she’s available!”

“Ronalisa did wonderfully! Floyd is high energy and can be pushy- so at first I was worried as we had never boarded through Rover before. But it was quickly apparent than Rona was confident and capable even with young and crazy dogs like Floyd. She always got back to me quickly and sent the cutest videos of them playing fetch, swimming, and hiking around. Her dogs are also great too! They helped Floyd play appropriately but still have fun. I would love to board with Rona again”

“Yoki and Derek were amazing!! My pup Millie stayed with them for this past weekend…..we received so many pictures and knew she was having fun every second she was there! Highly recommend!!”

“My dog’s week with Tanya & her dog, Zuki, couldn’t have been better! Tanya was attentive to my dog’s needs, he enjoyed running around her fenced yard & played enthusiastically with the resident dog, Zuki. Tanya sent frequent photos & video updates. She went above & beyond with Miles, noticing his need for mental stimulation & giving him puzzles & time to practice new tricks. I wouldn’t hesitate to book a sit at Tanya & Hutch’s place again—their wonderful care made being away from my dog much easier!”

“Remy had an amazing stay! He's a little special because of his tummy issues, so it is very hard for me to leave him at all, but it's just a little easier knowing he's in caring hands. Thank you so much for all of the photos and updates. I really appreciate all that you did to make him comfortable. Remy sends his love!”

“Beatrice was so kind to help me out last minute with caring for my pup. He was very happy to see her, and seemed very relaxed when I picked him up. I am so grateful to have her to help so I can feel at ease when I travel.”

About: I have years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats through personal pet ownership, animal shelter volunteering, fostering, and pet sitting for friends and family. During my undergraduate years, I spent several years volunteering at animal shelters and fostering animals with a wide range of ages, personalities, and care needs. I've cared for young puppies, kittens, adult cats, senior dogs, and older rescues who were still learning potty-training routines. Through these experiences, I've become comfortable working with shy, nervous, and anxious animals, as well as dogs who need extra patience on walks or tend to pull on the leash. I also have experience with basic puppy training, reinforcing commands, managing potty-training accidents, and caring for multiple pets at once. I'm experienced with administering both oral and injectable medications, and I understand the importance of carefully following each pet's specific care instructions. I grew up caring for my family's pug, who lived to be 15 years old, and I currently have a sweet 4 year old rescue dog. I've also fostered and cared for multiple dogs and cats in my home, so I'm familiar with managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. One of the biggest things fostering has taught me is that every animal is different. Some pets want to play all day, while others prefer quiet company or need a little extra time to warm up. I love getting to know each pet individually and making sure they receive the attention, patience, and affection that works best for them! I'm currently a graduate student at UW-Madison, and one of the best parts of my schedule is that my lab allows me very flexible hours! This gives me plenty of freedom throughout the week to work around your pet's routine and make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. Since I'm not tied to a traditional 9 to 5 schedule, I can make time for dog walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and overnight house sitting. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, your kitten wants some extra playtime, or your furry friend just needs someone to keep them company while you're away, I'm happy to help! I also have a 4 year old rescue dog of my own, so walks, feeding, playtime, and spending quality time with animals are already part of my everyday routine. I'm available most days and am happy to coordinate around your pet's usual schedule. I know how important consistency is for animals, especially those who are younger, older, or a little anxious, and I'll do my best to keep their routine as comfortable and familiar as possible. And of course, I'll always make time for plenty of cuddles, playtime, and pictures of your little fur babies! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! Through my experience volunteering at animal shelters and fostering dogs and cats, I've learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and respectful of each animal's individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for shy or anxious pets, energetic puppies, senior animals, and pets who may need a little extra attention or reassurance. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special care needs. I also have experience administering oral and injectable medications and understand the importance of following the instructions provided for each pet. I live alone with my sweet 4 year old rescue dog, who gets along very well with other animals. I've also cared for multiple cats and dogs in my home before, so I understand the importance of paying attention to each pet's personality, comfort level, and boundaries. I'm mindful of keeping pets secure during walks, being attentive to their behavior, and making sure they feel comfortable in their surroundings. I also treat every client's home with care and respect. Communication is really important to me, so I'm always happy to send regular photos and updates during visits or overnight stays. I want you to be able to relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love and attention while you're away!

“Caroline was an amazing host to my golden retriever, Lottie. Lottie was immediately excited to hang out with her, was sad to come home, and looked delighted in all of the photos in between. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!!”

“Christine was amazing with our dog Wally. We loved all of the pictures and updates we got from her. We look forward to taking our dog to her for future pet sitting needs. 100% would recommend her to a friend. She went above and beyond for us!”

“Zhuhan accepted our booking after our previous sitter canceled and was incredibly responsive from the start. She asked thoughtful questions to ensure our dog’s comfort and sent updates every morning and evening. We were very happy with her care and would highly recommend her.”

“Ashley was fantastic with Ollie! Great with communication and have him lots of love. Definitely recommend!”

Angi K.

“Our pup was so happy here! Jenny and family were very communicative and shared photos and videos that made us smile every time. They were really flexible and accommodating about our timeline, since we had a long drive and couldn’t predict an exact time. This was the perfect way to have our puppy here in Madison while we were visiting our daughter who is a student here. Absolute game changer! Thank you!”

Carri S.

“Cleda was awesome! She took care of our dog as well as we would have ourselves. Frequent updates, communication, and feedback; and a really great environment are just some of the great points.”

Ares A.

“Allison was great! We needed a last minute sitter as she accepted our fur baby with no problem. Communicated and took pics of our doggy. Highly recommend.”

Latissa F.

“Shawn was great! Sent picture updates and Caspian looked so happy and relaxed! He was super flexible and even worked with me as I needed to have a friend pick Cas for scheduling reasons. Thank you Shawn!”

Hannah T.

“Da Yeon was amazing in every way! She went out of her way to give our sweet doggy the best experience while we were gone, and was fantastic in communicating and coordinating. Anyone would be lucky to have their fur babies stay with her, and we’re so grateful to have had such a great experience!”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, I cared for rabbits, hamsters, mice, and a pet rat. Today I share my home with my 13 year old cat, Meeko, and my housemate’s friendly 12 year old dog. I recently said goodbye to my senior cat after 16 wonderful years together. During the last few years of his life, I administered medication multiple times a day and became experienced in caring for an aging pet with extra medical needs. That experience strengthened my patience, attention to detail, and understanding that every pet deserves individualized, compassionate care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own pets. I work full-time during the week 8:30-4:30, so I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks before and after work (6-7:30 AM, and after 4:30 pm M-F), as well as most weekends and holidays. I also offer limited weekend boarding for one dog at a time so I can provide each guest with plenty of individual attention and care. My goal is to be flexible while making sure every pet receives the time and attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know pets thrive on routine, so I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to medications, favorite toys, and bedtime routines. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and lots of affection. I understand that having a stranger in the house can be stressful for both pets and owners, so I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. For boarding, I have a securely fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play. I only accept one boarding dog at a time so I can provide a calm, personalized experience and ensure every pet receives plenty of attention. My home also includes my cat and my housemate’s dog, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable around cats and other dogs. This helps create a calm, safe environment for everyone.

“Our dogs received great care with Erik and his family. Excellent communication and very easy to work with. Would reccomend and would book with again.”
