“Jessica was phenomenal! She watched our 2 dogs over our wedding weekend. We wanted one of them to join us for a bit and she was so helpful, even came and picked her up. She sent lots of photos and updates. We had a meet and greet on her yard so our dogs could meet hers. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Pretzel has a great 2 week stay. Duane& Lauren took great care of him and he has lots of playtime and walks to keep him busy. Their place is warm and cozy even in the cold winter!”
“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”
“My 4 legged member of the family had the blessing of spending the weekend with Stephanie. She kept me updated on his stay with videos and pictures. He went for walks and played in their backyard.”
“Good communication & flexible with drop off & pick up. Emily made me feel comfortable leaving my girl. She didn't even need the anxiety meds I sent! (my dog, not Emily) =)”
“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”
“Margaret was great with our dog, Comet! She sent photos and updates and Comet seemed very happy both in the photos and when we got back. I would highly recommend booking Margaret and we will try and book her again in the future!”
“Edith is the sweetest dog lover out there. My dog was so happy when I picked him up and could tell he was well loved and cared for. I will be booking with Edith anytime I need in the future!”
“Kaycee and Robert were great. Boomer seemed to have a great time with them. He slept in the car the entire car ride home, hour and a half. He will definitely be there again.”
“Alex and Hannah gave lots of TLC with nice walks in the wooded trails nearby. They were extremely accommodating when we arrived late and then had a delayed return. Thanks!”
“Great communication for booking, through their stay, and when we needed to adjust our pick up time. We received pictures of our ladies several times, which brightened our day and helped us feel at ease when we were away. They were very attentive to the different food and medication needs our ladies have. We will definitely use them again for future boarding.”
“Tanya and Hutch could not have done a better job making Molly feel at home with them. You’re getting professional grade photos of your dog every day as well:) Thank you both so much:) Pete and Anne Jones”
“Amanda was wonderful! She sent videos and pictures of Cece the entire time we were gone. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone and plan to use her again in the future!”
“Zara had a blast, definitely a safe and fun place for her to stay. She was very well cared for and we received updates while we were gone for almost a week.”
“Lucy had a great weekend with Jennifer! She got along great with Oscar. Tick season is pretty bad this year and Jennifer made sure to look over Lucy and keep her tick-free!”
“Ben & his dogs are wonderful- my 2 year old Bernedoodle fit in perfectly and had a great time romping with Ben’s dogs. Ben was a great communicator and shared helpful videos and photos. Cosmo can’t wait to stay with Ben again!”
“Jesse was great! He provided boarding for our dog. He responded quickly to my request for booking, we met the next morning at a dog park so my dog could get to know his dog, and he was very flexible with scheduling drop off and pick up. He sent us a bunch of pictures and videos of our dog while we were away. I would certainly recommend Jesse if you're looking for help taking care of your dog.”
“Erik and his family are the rare sitters that my boys actually enjoy. Upon arriving for their second stay, the boys were off, happily exploring and settling in. They usually have separation anxiety with any sitter, even in my home. It was such a relief that they didn't follow me to the door. I could tell from the photos and videos during their stay and at pick up that they were genuinely happy. It means so much that I know that my little guys are truly cared for! As a single dog mom, dog sitting eats into my budget, but a great experience is a worthy investment in their long-term well being.”
“Mary and her family were absolutely wonderful sitters for Grizzy! They took great care of him during a cold snap, making sure he was warm and comfortable. Mary sent wonderful updates and absolutely adorable pictures, and I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Amanda was great to work with and took excellent care of our two cats. One of our cats is diabetic, and she had no issues administering his insulin. Our other cat is very shy, but by the end of Amanda's visits, she had even come out to see her. We will definitely trust Amanda with our cats again in the future.”

“Joan was available on short notice, very friendly and flexible with times and days, willing to take on the challenge of herding a handful of chickens into the coop at night and became our cat’s new best friend. She sent frequent updates and great photos and videos of the pets. We would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“Darby did a great job with our cats! She was confident and asked great questions at our meet and greet. Our boys felt comfortable and she was able to pill our tricky cat. Darby has great attention to detail and really cares about the boys and building a positive relationship with them. It is clear that she really cares about her work and care for the animals. We are so fortunate to have found Darby! Thank you Darby!”
“Keely was great. Good communication and took wonderful pics of my cats during her visits while making sure everything was in order. Couldn’t have gone any smoother.”

About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been helping care for them since I was 10 years old. From feeding and grooming to playtime and snuggles, caring for cats has always come naturally to me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including pills and topical treatments, and I understand the importance of gentle, stress-free handling. Whether your cat is playful or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“Anna was amazing! She took great pictures and sent great updates to let us know how our cats were doing while we were away. I felt at ease having Anna care for our cats, and will definitely re-book again in the future!”
“Elizabeth was so great and accommodating!! Prompt communication and did a fabulous job with my cat. She provided a peace of mind while I was away.”
“Kathryn did an amazing job caring for my grumpy old cat, Rumor. He doesn't usually like strangers, but she got him to play with toys and always spent time with him. I felt better knowing that she was checking in on him everyday!”

“My pup Popsicle loves Cynthia and gets so excited to see her! Cynthia gives excellent ‘pupdates’ and is super-communicative, so when you’re away from your pup (and missing them), you’ll get beautiful pics and updates. She treats my pup like family, and I’ve hired her again and again!”
“Ben and Kassy were awesome! My dog DouDou was only 8 months old and very nervous and shy and we booked a daycare first to let him get along with them and make new friends. They try their best to help familiarize him with their place, and their dogs. I can tell they love dogs a lot!”
About: I work remotely and have a fenced in yard so I’m able to look after and hang out with your dog throughout the day. My dog, Milo, is a pup who is the chillest pup I’ve ever met but also loves to play with other dogs and say hi to strangers. I make an effort to make sure owners pets stick to their schedules and I enjoy the active time with them too. I work from home allowing me to watch over pets throughout the day and ensure they have enough outside time and whatever else they may need. I try to stick to owners house rules and routines. I’m an early bird allowing for morning time to get energy out and for pets to start their day with me.
“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”
“Julie was very friendly and accepted our booking late the night before we needed her to look after our dog. She took great care of Truffles and sent us plenty of photos throughout the day.”
“Emma was super sweet and I could immediately see that she was a dog person. She took great care of our dog and we felt assured that he would be safe and well taken care of. Highly recommend for the Madison area!”
“Emily made us feel extremely safe leaving our pup, Tyke, with her! She had a basket full of toys ready to show him & her home felt so cozy & welcoming. I could tell our pup felt safe with her right away & wasn’t stressed during drop off or pick up Thank you, Emily!”
“Lorelei and Gail watched Pistachio for us while we were getting married! They sent us so many of pictures and videos of Pistachio happily playing with their dogs, it made our eventful evening even better. Pistachio came home tired and happy. We truly appreciate the care and communication.”
“Edith is your dream sitter. She posts daily photos and updates of your pet. She obviously loves what she does. She is a lovely soul and my Mimi, who can be shy, had her tail up in the photos which made me feel reassured that she was in a safe, loving environment.”
“Julie has taken great care of Arnie! He loves to play with Zilla and hang out in the yard. We will definitely bring him to Julie for more daycare in the future!”
About: I try to provide training for your dog using simple commands and treats. I have a corgy. He likes eating poop, so I am firm with him but lovely. I believe I take my time to rub his belly or play with my dog before feeding him or going for a walk. I always keep treats and bags. I currently have a job from home, with a flexible schedule. I always go outside for walk 10 to 20 minutes o play with tennis ball. I used to go outside 2 or 3 times a day. In the morning the firts walk is longer. I have many different toys and a medium-sized blanket if he needs to rest. They can also go on my couch. If he needs more privacy, I have a big cage with blankets and pillows. I live in an apartment with 2 beds to a bath.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages since I was a child! I grew up on a farm and have had Rottweilers, Pitbulls, cats, horses, and lots of animals of various sizes in between. I love all dogs and cats from chihuahuas to Great Danes and would love to care for your pet as well :) I currently work 3 days a week so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am available 4 days out of the week and will have those 4 days off to devote to your pet! I live right on the Katy Trail and walk there everyday. I have no pets of my own so there’s no need to worry about negative interactions. I am also willing to take your pets to any appointments they may have!
“Eric and Rachel took such good care of my little girl! They helped her feel comfortable and provided great pictures and updates throughout the day. So grateful for their compassion and caring personalities!”
“Grace was great to work with! She was very quick to respond and provided me with the peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of. Highly recommend Grace to anyone in the Madison area!”
About: Hi! My name is Rona. I grew up on a farm in the Philippines. As a child, my parents always had dogs and cats at home. I’ve experienced taking care of many different types of animals. It was quite challenging but it’s fun! When I came here, we adopted Maggie and Lyka when they were still puppies. Maggie is a 6 year old Pug and Lyka is a 2 year old Boston Terrier. I love them so much! They are both lovable and friendly. Our neighbors and friends have relied on me to groom, walk, feed and bathe their dogs while they were away. My house sits in a shady private area and is surrounded by parks and trails so there will be a lot of running around and play time when your dog is cared for by me. I can do oral medication administration, I have had a senior dog experience and can provide daily exercise for your pups. My schedule is flexible so I can usually take on new dogs at a moment’s notice. I will update you regularly with pictures and videos to give you peace of mind during your time apart. I am working from home so most of my time will be caring for your fur baby. Daycare drop-off no earlier than 6:00 am and pick-up hours anytime in the afternoon. We have a large fenced backyard and our two dogs, Maggie (Pug) and Lyka (Boston Terrier) are very good with all dogs. They love to play and will keep your fur baby company during their stay. The dogs are in and out all day using 9 steps. We have security cameras and limited access to our property.
“Manuela was great with our dog and I know our dog loved spending time with her! I was nervous to leave our dog with a new person at first, but Manuela met us beforehand and made sure we were comfortable. I would definitely recommend Manuela to anyone looking for care for their pet! She treats pets as if they were her own!”

“Ashley does a great job communicating and really focused on her time with my senior pup. She's becoming my regular dog walker and I look forward to all the happy pictures of my pup she sends!”
“Mary was amazing to work with. She was very gracious about our last minute need, and wonderful with our dog Toliver. He really enjoyed their walks, and I felt like he was in great hands. I would book with Mary again in a heartbeat.”
“Lora was reliable and really gave extra. She came out before hand to learn the dogs and their routes. I am currently disabled and she was so helpful bringing in packages. She took each dog on extra laps if they failed to do their business the first round. We will not hesitate to call Lora the next time we need someone.”
“Tofu has such a great time when Kathryn walks her! Kathryn is flexible and we always feel like Tofu is getting the same level of attention and care that we give her! Will definitely book again in the future”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. Spending time with pets is truly one of my favorite things, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality, whether that means playing with an energetic dog, giving extra attention to a cuddly cat, or providing gentle companionship to a senior pet. I believe pets thrive when they feel loved, comfortable, and understood, so I focus on building trust and creating a positive experience for them while you're away. Being around animals brings me so much joy, and I take pride in making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. You can count on me to provide plenty of affection, attention, and personalized care, along with regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands. I am currently a nursing student at UW Madison and have time throughout both the week and weekend to spend time with your pet! Typically earlier or later in the day is best for me but I am able to be flexible. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and at ease — feeding them on schedule, going on walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from their owner. I spend a lot of time giving attention and affection, whether that’s active play for energetic pets or calm companionship for seniors or more relaxed animals. I always try to make them feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also send updates so you know how they’re doing and can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I’m all of my friends and families first choice to watch their pets when they are out of town. I’ve looked after a variety of breeds of dogs and many cats as well. I’ve always had dogs in my life growing up so I’m very familiar with reading their body language and knowing how to care for them. I work full time but have a lot of flexibility to check on your pet throughout the day and have the opportunity to work remote as well I’ve never a met a pet that didn’t like me. I’m very good at reading dogs body langue and knowing what they need. Cats also like me and I’m good at reading their body language as well
About: What sets me apart is my dependable, loving care. I treat every dog like family, giving patient attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. I work mornings in retail, finish later in the afternoon so I am free later in the day. I enjoy being active, but always plan my schedule around pets to ensure consistent, loving care. I adapt to each pets needs. I grew up with cats and dogs, and provide walks, cuddles, space if needed, plus updates, photos, and lots of love, care, and attention.
“Our Great Dane loves Ben. He has had great communication with us during all of his walks and has made sure that Bruno has “done his business” in the mornings. He is our favorite walker”
“Jamie is awesome! She went above and beyond our expectations while taking care of our boys!! She is very professional and took the time to meet the boys before our scheduled dates with her. We got great pictures from her!! We will definitely be using her again”
“Terrific experience. Anna is communicative, dependable, and truly seems to enjoy spending time with our dog. We always knew Pema was well cared for. Would absolutely book again.”
“So very happy with walks with Carley. She is solid, confident, relaxed and positive. I have a dog who can be challenging (reactive) and she is more than up to the task!”
About: I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet's stay so you can relax knowing they're well cared for. And I understand their unique needs and personalities. I work from home and part-time, so whatever works for both of us, I will be someone you can rely on. Looking forward to giving to and getting love from your pet! My love for animals will never go away! They will be most comfortable in their own environment and I will help them feel safe in that space.
“Baylee was awesome with my puppy dog, and my dog adored her. Very reliable, great communication, and she really did have my dog’s safety in mind while providing a fun and energetic walk. Highly recommended — will hire her again!”
About: I've been a devoted cat and dog owner for more than 20 years and have cared for pets through every stage of life—from energetic puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats with changing needs. I'm comfortable with large dogs and understand the patience, consistency, and attentiveness they require. What truly sets me apart is my reliability and respect. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets and your home in someone else's care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own, providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship while keeping you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. Because I currently work part-time and complete remote projects, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and overnight care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and love getting outside for walks, so caring for pets is something I look forward to—not something I try to squeeze into a busy schedule. I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and bedtime routines. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I do not offer boarding in my home because I have a guardian dog who prefers not to share his space with other dogs. By caring for pets in their own homes, I'm able to give them my full attention while keeping them comfortable in the place they know best. I'll also treat your home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Elizabeth was great with our dog Cash giving us updates with pictures and giving him nice long walks. Will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”
“Lizzi was very responsive and flexible when I reached out and prompt and easy to chat with when she came by. Layla then got to go for her first walk with Lizzi which was a satisfyingly long one around the neighborhood for her. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Lizzi; we booked our next walk right away!”
About: I have done petsitting (cats and dogs) for over 15 years. Usually for animals where I personally know the owners and have spent time with the animal to create a bond/relationship. I want to full disclose with new perspective pets parents: I have a full time, in-office job with the standard business hours, Monday through Friday. If that's not what you are looking for in a house sitter, I understand. If I had a pet of my own, I would ensure all their needs are met. As a petsitter, I would to ensure their animal's life doesn't change or I could make it better in some small way especially since their parent(s) is gone I stay at the animal's home to care for them so their life isn't different than what it usually is for them. Changing their environment can be quite shocking and stressful to them. I try not change their lifestyle too much while the parent is gone

It was our dogs first time staying with a non-family member so we were a little nervous but it was clear she loved staying with Jen and had so much fun. Jen is very professional and sent us several helpful updates throughout the weekend. Our dog had the best time with her. We will definitely be requesting future boarding stays with Jen!”
“I was very nervous to leave my dog Bailey. 1. I had never left her and 2.She had a small issue with her paw just before my vacation. When informing him about the issues and the shedding problem , there were no hesitations on what needs to be done to keep up with the grooming. You should have no worries when you hire this person. The communication, the pictures,the condition of my dogand the level of care were outstanding. I was very lucky to find somebody on short notice and appreciate the sensitivity and kindness. Thank you, Shawn, for all your help and for making Bailey such a happy girl for the days I was gone.”

“Kevin had a great time! This was the first time he stayed over night without us and he did great. Kevin had another dog to play with and I don't think he missed us (well not too much anyway). I would definitely use Val again and recommend him highly.”
“Christina (and her dog Beira) were so great for our dog. She was especially responsive and accommodating. Since our dog is somewhat anxious with new people, we asked Christina to make time for a meet and greet at her home so our dog could sniff it out and meet the resident dog a week before boarding her there. She was especially receptive to that and we think it made for a great experience as we could get all our questions out of the way ahead of time!”
