About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now. I love cooking for them and knowing exactly what is going in their food. I love making home made treats for them as well. I even sew for them at times. I've made boots, coats, beds, Halloween costumes, toys, etc. Right now, my schedule is pretty flexible, which means I have lots of time to dedicate purely to furkids. I am close with a professional dog trainer and am able to ask any question, which is always a big help. My vet has great hours and very accessible as well for any questions or concerns.

“Madison did such a great job with Cooper! His excitement, new environment jitters and eating too fast caused him to vomit the first couple of days. Madison handled it like a pro, she seeked guidance from the vet who confirmed what seemed to be happening. She adjusted his food intake to help him keep food down and made some other changes which fixed the problem! Goose, their dog, was a wonderful big brother to Cooper and they all gave him love like he was their own. Cooper was taken on lovely walks on trails and to the dog park and Goose also shared his antlers with Coop which is now his favorite thing to chew! We were very happy with the care given to our crazy little kid and Madison went over and beyond!”

We returned home to calm cats who didn't seem to mind in the least that we had been gone. Melissa is super reliable and always provides great care for our cats and our home, and sends wonderful updates each day.

About: I have had animals since I was very young so lots of experience. Have owned 3 rescue dogs who are just like members of my family. Recently, I have been helping friends with their animals when they vacation and am looking to extend my client group to the local area. I am very active so walking dogs is very enjoyable for me. I am free most mornings and nights and have longer breaks during my work day that would allow flexibility for drop ins and walks all week. I am able to come to your home and provide for your pet's needs including walks, feeding, potty breaks etc. I've even been known to clean a litter box or two. Can provide references upon request.

Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and enrichment come first—and they’ll feel that from the moment they walk in the door. ❤️ Pets Are Family—And That’s Exactly How I Treat Them In my home, pets aren’t “just animals”—they’re family. Our own dogs and cats have always slept in our bed, curled up on the couch, and enjoyed every creature comfort right alongside us. I’ve had pets of all sizes throughout my life, and I truly love them all. I know how hard it can be to enjoy time away when you’re worried about your fur babies. That’s why, with me, your pets become my top priority from the moment they arrive. They’ll never be stuck in cages—just freedom, affection, and the good life they deserve! 📸 Daily Updates—Your Way Want a couple of check‑ins or all‑day photo updates? Just tell me your preference, and I’ll exceed your expectations. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your babies are safe, happy, and having fun. 🐾 Trusted Experience You Can Count On I proudly partner with FetchWI and the Green County Humane Society, providing foster care for dogs waiting for their forever homes. Caring, patience, and compassion are at the heart of everything I do. I am independently insured as a professional pet sitter. Rover bookings are also backed by Rover’s pet‑care guarantee.

About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now. I love cooking for them and knowing exactly what is going in their food. I love making home made treats for them as well. I even sew for them at times. I've made boots, coats, beds, Halloween costumes, toys, etc. Right now, my schedule is pretty flexible, which means I have lots of time to dedicate purely to furkids. I am close with a professional dog trainer and am able to ask any question, which is always a big help. My vet has great hours and very accessible as well for any questions or concerns.
