Pet Sitting Truax

“We have had Jen take care of our two cats several times now, and she is the best!! She sends amazing photos so we can see our sweet kitties, but most importantly is meticulous with their care. She goes above and beyond to clean their dishes so they have pristine food and water bowls, make sure they get tons of affection, and have tidy litter boxes. When they have had some hairballs, she has cleaned those up thoughtfully. As a person who adores my pets and is persnickety about their care. I would recommend her highly!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 5 years old. I grew up in the country in Texas and at one point we had around 20 cats and 9 dogs. We took care of the strays that made their way onto our property, and sometimes adopted from shelters and random people. I was taught love and compassion for animals since I was a young child. I continue to embrace the kindness I have in my heart for animals everyday. I’m usually available most of the time, as I don’t have any full time work to tend to. I also do not celebrate holidays which can benefit pet owners very much because they can count on me being available as long as I have not already booked with someone else. I would be wonderful to your pup insuring they get enough potty breaks, walks if you would like, maybe the dog park upon your approval, and even car rides if you’d like! I offer complimentary treats.. I keep some in my home. And of course I would get them approved by my client first. For cats in my clients home, I would do the same things. I would also insure the cat box is clean, and lots of play time if that’s what the kitty likes :-)

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a long walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home. I’m active and love being outdoors, so I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks and give them plenty of exercise and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to give mine. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, and care routines, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to fit pet care into my week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention.

“Stephanie checked on our dogs while we were away for a long day. She left a great recap of their time together and shared a few pics. Communicative and exactly what we needed when we were away the whole day!”

About: I grew up with dogs, ranging from Newfoundland’s to French bulldogs so it is safe to say I have experience with all sizes of dogs. You can trust me to not only keep your dog safe, but to keep them happy and healthy. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. Would love to spend more time with animals, and can make most things work with my schedule. I am looking forward to helping keep your pet active and well cared for! I am located in the Atwood neighborhood, north east madison. I’m available for dog walking, pet check ins, and in home pet sitting if you’re away for a trip or work. Your pet will be safe and cared for with me. I prefer to care for the pets in your home as I currently am in a rental that does not allow pets. Also this will keep your pet most comfortable / in their routine.

About: I’ve been a cat parent for 8 years and currently have three cats, each with their own personality and needs! One takes daily oral medication, and another has cerebellar hypoplasia (a wobbly cat). I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, which gave me experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities. I work Monday-Friday from 8 AM - 5 PM. If you are near Monona, I may be able to stop in around lunchtime; otherwise, after 5 PM. I have more flexibility on weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow routines and instructions closely, respect your home, and give your pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me.

About: Hi! I’m Madison, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for animals in both shelter and home settings. I volunteered with Shelter from the Storm Animal Rescue as a behavioral assessor, where I was trained to observe animal behavior, body language, temperament, and individual needs. I also helped write biographies for adoptable animals, which gave me even more experience getting to know animals as individuals and understanding their personalities and needs. My family also fostered animals, so I’m very comfortable working with anxious, shy, or nervous pets. I understand that some animals need extra patience and time to feel comfortable with a new person. I’m very in tune with animal behavior and pay close attention to body language, comfort levels, routines, and changes in behavior so I can help your pet feel safe and relaxed. I work a hybrid-remote job and am only in the office 1-2 days a week depending on workload, which gives me a lot of flexibility with pet care and to spend extra time with your pets that may need more human interaction and snuggles! I’m absolutely comfortable working with anxious, fearful, or timid animals and will give them the patience and space they need to feel comfortable. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and in good hands while you’re away! I work a hybrid-remote job and am only in the office 1-2 days a week depending on workload, which gives me a lot of flexibility with pet care and to spend extra time with your pets that may need more human interaction and snuggles! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. My background as a trained animal behavioral assessor helps me recognize signs of stress, fear, discomfort, or overstimulation and adjust my approach accordingly. I’m especially comfortable with shy or anxious animals and will never force interaction before they are ready. I prioritize safe handling, secure doors and gates, and making sure pets cannot accidentally escape. I also respect your home by keeping things clean, following your instructions, and making sure everything is as you left it when I leave. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was old enough to know what a pet was, whether it’s my own, a neighbor’s, or a friend/family member’s. I love animals, and am considering going into vet work! I have experience with both puppies/kittens and seniors as well :). I can walk, feed, give meds, and do anything you need! I’m a full-time student during the week, but I will always have time to drop-in, or stay overnight. I’m very flexible with my scheduling, so I will happily do whatever you and your pet need! While I can’t offer boarding at my home because I have four roommates, I will care for pets in every way possible no matter what! I know some nice parks for walks, and I’m also happy to chill if they’re a homebody! Again, entirely up to you and your pets needs :)

About: I have taken care of pets for 10 years now! I have experience with all sizes of dogs and puppies. My family and neighbors have relied on me to make sure their pets are cared for while they’re away. I am a college student so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to taking care of pups in the evenings and between classes on weekdays. I am not available on most weekends. I will treat your pet and home with respect and ensure they are cared for. I think it is very important for pups to be comfortable in their environment.

About: I've had dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life as well as having two cats. With my most recent dog, I took it upon myself to care for and train starting when I was 14. Open all day on the weekends and can do weekdays after 5:30. Looking to help out busy people with their furry friends. Schedule can be moved around with enough notice I love playing with dogs and have no fear when interacting. Don’t mind playful/energetic dogs and will play with them if desired. Look forward to meeting yall
