Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ironton

“Barb was wonderful with our Silver Lab, Birdie. From the moment we booked with her, she was an excellent communicator. She kept us updated throughout Birdie's stay with thoughtful text messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we picked Birdie up at the end of the day, it was clear she had been well cared for. I highly recommend Barb to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

“Homa and Matt took in our dog Angus and treated him as family. They have a 2 year old that chased and played with him like their other dog. Angus did not even notice us leaving. Homa sent pictures every day showing a happy dog so we could relax and enjoy our time away. I highly recommend this beautiful place with a spacious yard and loving environment for any dog.”

“Thank you so much Daria for taking care of Eddie. I loved the pics you send. I hope you will consider watching him again sometime. You were great with our little guy!”

Barb M.

“I boarded my dog Cooper with Katie for two days and nights. Katie was very responsive when I approached her and she sent text and photos of Cooper during his stay with her. She played with him and he looked very happy. She has a great yard for Cooper to play fetch. I would definitely have Katie watch Cooper again.”

“Bethany was amazing! She watched my little Archie for a long weekend and made our getaway more enjoyable by not having to worry about our fur baby! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Clementine had a wonderful time staying with Amber! She enjoyed many walks in the Baraboo area and enjoyed getting to stay with Cypress! Would love to have Amber watch Clementine again!”

Ashley M.

“Absolutely AMAZING. Don't hesitate. Nancy was wonderful. Great communication leading up to the visit. Constant pictures while our doggie was in her care. Can't thank them enough for taking great care of our precious Dicker while we were at a 8 hour wedding/reception. Doggie had a blast & was so comfortable with their property. JUST BOOK NOW. COMPLETELY SAFE”

“I can’t say enough great things about Candi and the care she took with our two dogs. I’ve never felt so comfortable with “boarding” my dogs while I was gone for a long trip. I knew they were being treated like part of her family. She sent videos and pictures to keep me updated. My big dog ended up having some stomach issues and Candi didn’t skip a beat. We called my vet and she picked up some meds and got her back on track. Her four dogs were great with mine - they had such a blast. Not sure who enjoyed the vacation more, me or the dogs. She also has a beautiful acreage for them to run around and get fresh air. Wish I would have found her earlier! Thank you Candi!”

About: I have a background in both education and dog training, so I focus heavily on structure, communication, and understanding each dog’s individual needs. I have experience working with dogs of all ages, energy levels, and personalities, including puppies, high-energy breeds, and dogs that benefit from extra patience or routine. I’m CPR certified, experienced with enrichment-based care, and comfortable reinforcing basic training skills such as leash manners, recall, sit/down, place, and calm behavior during visits and walks. I also have experience with hunting and working breeds, so I understand the importance of both physical exercise and mental stimulation. What sets me apart most is that I genuinely enjoy building trust and relationships with the dogs I care for. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure each dog feels comfortable, engaged, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide reliable communication and updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I intentionally keep openings in my schedule for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and individualized care. I currently have availability most mornings, a few evenings, and select weekends which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexible scheduling for clients. Because I prioritize quality care and reliability, I carefully manage my schedule to make sure each pet receives plenty of time, attention, exercise, and communication while in my care. believe every dog is different, so I focus heavily on each pet’s individual needs, personality, comfort level, and routine. Some dogs need lots of exercise and enrichment, while others need a calmer environment, patience, or extra reassurance while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home or my own, I take time to learn their feeding schedule, potty routine, energy level, favorite activities, training expectations, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I adjust my care style based on the individual dog rather than taking a “one size fits all” approach. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, understood, and cared for while maintaining as much consistency and routine as possible.

“I had a great experience and my dog loved playing with her dogs! Super friendly people and dogs, easy to communicate with and a great space. If I am back in that area I will definitely try and bring Carlos there again”

“Lucia was a great care giver my dogs loved her & looked forward to seeing her everyday. She was teaching maya some basic commands since she doesn't know anything yet. We are very pleased with her service”

“Rebecca is a fantastic pet sitter! Her communication with us was exemplary. She sent us a note every morning before she went over to our house, and then more notes and photos as she cared for our two cats. She followed our instructions to a T, and we returned to two happy cats! We definitely will ask her to cat-sit for us again! Thank you, Rebecca!”

“Once again Kimberly did an excellent job taking care of the furry kids. Senior CKD cat thrives under her care😎. Thanks for all extra attention they get!!”

About: Bilingual and able to communicate with families in Spanish, as well. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to care for their pets/homes for almost 7 years. They often say we're (my fiance and I) the only ones they trust to care for their pets. I have experience with senior pets and worked at a rescue previously. Excited to be going full time pet sitting/walking in 2026! I'm very reliable, flexible and am available last minute, 7 days a week and on holidays. I take extra care to keep pets happy, safe and comfortable. I follow instructions given and use caution when necessary to prevent any escapes. I do not do boarding in my home.

“Ashley was amazing once again! I’ve used her in the past and she is so great. She has such a big heart and truly cares for the animals she is pet setting. She is always professional, kind, very communicative during her visits and flexible. I will always go back to her to continue to use her services. I can feel relaxed and at ease when I know she is looking after my pet, which makes my vacations so much more enjoyable knowing I can trust and rely on her! Thank you for all you do Ashley!”

“Barbara was a great sitter for our dogs first time with a stranger. Barbara had great communication and extremely clean home a large backyard for any dog to run around. She also took our dog on a couple walks and sent update pics and videos. We were confident in her care and hope to bring our dog to her again.”

Hansel A.

“Katie was absolutely amazing! Super flexible when our plans changed, sent lots of photos, and clearly took great care of our pups :)”

Emily B.

“It was a last minute scramble to find anybody to watch the dogs, Amber reached out through the app she worked with us and even though she had another dog she was watching she took on our 2 little ladies and took very good care of them. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who has fur babies. Dogs well cared for and she is very easy to work with. 🐶❤️😊”

Liz S.

“Dropped Nelli off for daycare and both Nancy and Dennis greeted us when we pulled in the driveway. Beautiful home and fenced yard. You can tell they were very happy to meet us and Nelli. Nelli was well cared for and pictures and updates were sent, which is always a comfort. Had such a positive experience that we immediately booked again for an overnight.”

Kristine D.

“Sage was in good hands with Candida! When we picked him up he seemed to be tired, but in good spirits from a lovely day playing with the other pups in Candida's care. I loved all the photos Candida sent and she has such a lovely home. Would 100% book again! Thank you so much!!”

About: I am flexible, loving, and communicative. I’m punctual with schedules, feedings, walking, etc. and I will assure your fur babies have the time of their lives with me! I am often available morning and night, and have no problem commuting to offer help. My ample free time allows me to stop in and check up on your pets multiple times per day if necessary. I love to provide photo updates and texts to pet parents. Although I don't offer in-home care, I foster a loving environment in any client's home and with any pet I take care of. My love for animals is tangible!

About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was little, between dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals such as dairy cows, pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I have open availability so I can take pets anytime and any day. I can do both cats and dogs as I have experience in both and experience in different energy levels I have a fence for my pets, we play with toys, and we go on walks (depending on the weather). My dog will sleep where she is most comfortable and she always goes to the bathroom on time.
