“We're thrilled to have found Faith. She was extremely reliable and attentive. She followed all the directions I left to a "T" and even notified me that our cat's meds were running low. Many visits were even longer than she was required. She seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with our cat and played with him and gave him lots of attention which he so likes when we're gone. We will definitely be hiring Faith again and highly recommend her services.”

“This was our first visit with Deanne. Doggy Daycare was a hit! Cash was happy when I picked him up. He was sound asleep on the couch within a 1/2 of getting home. I think he had a busy day with his new lil buddy!”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful. Went over Jensen's history was provided a tour of her home, very clean and definitely set up to welcome dogs. The report card was spot on with what we expected. Provided a calm environment to welcome a puppy who has been through a lot in her short life. When we got home, she acted normal. With our previous dogs we boarded at kennels but felt the need to try something different with a puppy that spent most of her life at a shelter. Our dogs would be wiped out when they came back home. So far not seeing any of that from her stay with Kaitlyn.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, and even bought a dog of my own 3 years ago and he’s the best ever! He’s super friendly with other dogs and plays well with others. I usually take him on walks mornings, midday, and evening time and in the summer I only give him a walk in the evening because he’s a Husky and it gets too hot for him during the day. Evenings are best time for him. I try to take him to the dog park at least a couple times a week, so you can count on your pup having some one on one time with another pup and having LOTS of fun. I have walked dogs for family/family friends since I was 14. I’ve dog sat too and fed and bathe them. I am a stay at home mother of two beautiful children (3yrs, and 8months) and I take them along on walks too. They love dogs! I am available during the week at any time! I have 1 male Siberian Husky, he’s 3yrs old. He’s fixed and is up to date on all his shots, he’s also super friendly and plays well with any type of dog and any size.
About: I have only had my own dogs to engage with but I love to teach them new tricks and help them learn. I am also not afraid to get to know shy pets I would be available after 4:30pm weekends but available all weekend. I work around having other jobs but am open those parts of the day I feed them, walk them, and teach them new tricks. I also love to play with my dogs to get the energy out of them
“Sarah was very friendly on drop off, I knew my dog was in good hands. Based on the pictures she sent he had a lot of fun playing out with the hose and her dogs! She had good communication and I would recommend her!”

Doc and Gunner enjoyed all the extra love and attention they received. Would contact Chanse again if we are back in the area with our babies. Highly recommend her if you need your dogs watched. Thank you!!!!!”
“Sarah took my dog, Ida, at the least minute for daycare this week. I received regular updates and photos, and my mind was at ease the entire time.

They were very conscious of her allergies as well. I will definitely book again!”

“Brandi was WONDERFUL. She was so welcoming and accommodating despite us intruding on a holiday weekend, and so welcoming of our Pup. Throughout our days of doggy daycare, we received updates and pictures and video of our Piper enjoying her stay and new friends, and at the end of each day, we received a very happy (and very ready-to-go-home-and-nap) dog. We used her back-to-back for two days, and Piper recognized she was going got another visit on Day 2 when we turned down Brandi's road, and immediately started crying excitedly in anticipation, all but pulling me out of the car when we opened the door! It's a shame we're not closer to Janesville for regular use of booking, but if we're ever needing to go through the area en route to our destinations, Brandi will be our first choice for daycare or boarding.”

About: I’ve been a dog-lover since childhood, always surrounded by dogs, horses, and even rabbits. I raised my husky from puppyhood who was my bestie.

I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work a pretty flexible schedule so that leaves me with lots of flexibility for pet care! I’m happy to do drop-ins, walks, or sitting depending on your pet’s needs and schedule. I’m reliable, communicative, and love spending my free time with animals! I always prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets and their homes. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I ensure a clean, calm, and secure environment where your pet feels comfortable and loved. I treat your space with the utmost care, following any specific instructions you provide. Being responsible and respectful is my top priority—I want both you and your pet to feel confident and relaxed while you’re away.

About: I have an 8 year old coonhound named Trigger. He is the light of my life. I love to care for family and friends dogs in my free time. I work 50% from home and 50% in the office. I am off Saturday through Monday. I have the flexibility needed to provide care as needed. I have an incredibly friendly and easy going coonhound named Trigger. In his older age, he has become quite the couch potato. In his younger years, he loved going to doggy day care to romp around. We have a large unfenced yard for dogs to enjoy.
“Nina has stayed with her twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful. She treats Nina with so much love, patience, and care that I always have complete peace of mind while I’m away. I always receive updates and photos, and it is clear that Nina is happy, safe, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and relaxed Nina is with her means everything to me. She has earned my complete trust, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need someone to care for Nina. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little girl!”
“Tony was great with Archie. He sent photos and videos which I really liked to see. Archie looked like he really enjoyed himself. Would highly recommend Tony. Thanks again for having Archie in your home”

“Jill is amazing! She is so loving and caring… She truly loves your pet as if it were her own… I will not look further next time I need a dog sitter… She is a keeper for all future dog sitting! She is the best!!”
“Jenifer is amazing! I’d never used Rover before, or had my pup stay with anyone other than my close friend. Since we were getting married, we needed to find a sitter for a couple nights and after seeing the very many good reviews about Jenifer, I thought I’d give it a shot and I’m so glad we did! She obviously loves dogs- dropping our pup off was easy since she had 2 huge baskets of toys for her to get excited over! She sent us pictures of our pup every day and was altogether reassuring and great. I’d do it again in a heartbeat- it’s so nice to know we have someone nearby we can trust with our baby!”
“She was amazing and so easygoing considering it was last minute and over the holiday weekend. She treated Bowie like one of her own and we will definitely consider her again!!!”
“Great place to stay! We left our dog while we were on vacation for about 5 days and when we picked him up he had his nails trimmed and was given a bath. We got a updated with pictures/videos at least once a day and we could tell that he was exercised and happy!”
“Alyssa was fantastic! This was only our second time leaving our puppy and the first time boarding him, he's got a lot of energy and still very much a puppy so we wanted to make sure we found the right fit for him. Alyssa sent us many pictures and updates and made Gilbert feel right at home, he absolutely loved her dogs too. If we need a sitter in the future we will absolutely be checking Alyssa's availability first. ❤️”
