“Thank you Christine!! Teddy loved his stay with Christine. She made sure he was comfortable and got plenty of play time. I greatly appreciated her daily pictures and updates. I could see she was treating him like one of her own! He loved getting to play all day and go on walks and to the park! Thank you again for taking such good care of my fur baby. We will definitely be back!”
“We felt Teddy was very well taken care of. He got lots of love, plenty of tennis ball throws, and sweet cuddles from Heather and her daughter. It felt great knowing Teddy was in such good hands while we were away.”
“Ryan and Martha took wonderful care of my dog. They treated her as a member of their family. They took her for walks and sent daily pictures. I will certainly ask them to care for Ella again when needed.”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“We left our dog Toffee with Jenny and her family for 5 days while we attended a work conference, and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Toffee with someone we didn’t know, so we were definitely nervous at first. Jenny immediately made us feel comfortable with constant updates, pictures, and videos throughout the entire stay. Toffee had the absolute best time running around in her huge backyard, playing with her kids and her two dogs, and getting so much love and attention. It truly felt like he was treated as part of their family. You can tell Jenny genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Toffee was happy, safe, and so well cared for. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with Jenny and her lovely family again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“This was the 2nd time Katie and Samuel’s family took care of Jarvis while we were away. We were very excited when they were available for these dates because Jarvis had a great time with them the first time. They did such an amazing job with him again and it really seemed like Jarvis felt right a home. They always send frequent updates and pictures which is really appreciated :)”
“Emma was absolutely amazing! Oscar (our Springer Spaniel pup) loved his weekend with Emma and her dogs, and came back so happy - and tired - from all the fun. They played, went on walks and I got all the photos along the way! We definitely plan to use Emma's services again- hopefully very soon!”
“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) =)”
“Stephanie was an amazing sitter. She messaged me daily with pictures too. Walks, playtime and belly rubs were a daily occurrence with Mack. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come back home. 😊”
“Once again, Laura took the best care of my pup! It’s such a relief knowing that my dog has a playmate (Shadow) and an attentive caretaker when I am out of town. Laura is very communicative and sends lots of (appreciated) updates :)”
“Our two dogs had a great stay with Michele and her family, and we couldn't be happier with their care! We've had a long-term house and dog sitter who recently relocated away from town, so our dogs had never had the experience of staying away from home without us before. We were a little concerned about how that would go, but right from the start we were reassured by Michelle's friendliness, her evident dog smarts, and her long experience with (sometimes challenging) pups. Before and throughout the boarding process, communication was just right -- clear and relevant, frequent enough to be reassuring but not at all excessive. When we returned home and picked up the dogs, they were in great shape: happy, relaxed, and clearly in no rush to leave Michelle and her family behind :) We'll definitely hope to have them stay again in the future.”
“Robert was a great host for Mazzi. He sent daily updates/photos. Robert has a large backyard that Mazzi loved to run around during play time.”
“Ryan, Krista, and the family were absolutely wonderful! This was Captains first overnight at a strangers home since we adopted him 4 months ago. They were very loving and made sure to keep us up to date while away and at pick up. We will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them for others.”
“Very friendly and dependable. Timely communication, and great pictures and updates during the stay. Confident that Louie got lots of attention, exercise, doggy socialization, and love.”
“Rona took excellent care of our high energy dog! He absolutely loved getting to explore and sniff around her spacious backyard, and he was very exhausted when we picked him up. We appreciated her daily updates and pics/videos. This was our first time having Rona take care of our dog, and we would happily book with her again.”
“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!”
“Christina and Jeremy did great with our dog. She hadn't spent a ton of time with other dogs or cats before her stay, but C and J were so confident that it would work out and it did! They were super-responsive while we were gone and sent many sweet photos :) We would absolutely have our pup stay with them again.”

About: I have owned cats my whole life, both indoor and outdoor. I am very comfortable providing care to cats of all ages. I have experience caring for senior cats, sick cats, or kittens. I can administer medications if necessary, and can provide the BEST cuddles for your kitties (if they allow it!) I have two cats of my own currently, so I know how mischievous they can be or needing playful stimulation when home alone for too long. I would love to give you peace of mind in making sure your cat is well cared for and looked after when you are away from home.
“Hillary looked after my three kitties while I was away on the holidays. She made sure my babies got some affection while also checking that everything was in order! :)”
About: As a proud "crazy cat lady" who has loved, rescued, and owned cats for years, I know that felines require a completely different approach than dogs. Whether your cat is a high-energy chatterbox, a timid hider, or a senior needing strict medical management, I provide the patient, individualized care they deserve. I have personally rescued and cared for cats with medically complex needs. I understand the precision, patience, and gentle touch required to manage feline health issues without causing them extra stress. I am experienced in: Diabetes Management: Comfortable with routine blood glucose monitoring and precise insulin needs. Medication Administration: Expert at giving oral medications (pills or liquids) safely and calmly. Transdermal Medications: Experienced in applying ear gels and other transdermal treatments. Cats are creatures of habit. I stick strictly to your feeding, litter box, and playtime schedules to ensure your cat feels safe, secure, and completely pampered in the comfort of their own home.
“Caleigh is a great cat sitter. This was our first scheduled house sitter/ cat sitter with her and she exceeded our expectations. One of our kitties was ill during the time we were away and Caleigh sent reports, pictures, and also suggested changes for her care of the kitty that we discussed by text. It was clear that she cared for him and was giving him close attention. Both kitties were content and calm when we returned and everything in the house was clean and neat. We highly recommend her.”
“Tucker was amazing — he took great care of my fur baby and provided pics regularly AND he was gracious and unflappable in the face of some unforeseen challenges. Flexible, great communicator, and left the house cleaner than he found it. Great with following directions and proactively taking care of all the things — he even noticed the light on the automatic feeder and refilled it before I even messaged him about the notification I’d received. Perhaps best of all, he saw AJ for the loving, playful kitty that he is—so I knew AJ was feeling comfortable and that he was in good, kind hands. Would definitely recommend to others and would be glad to have his help again!”
“Sydney did a great job! Our cats are not social with everyone, they were with Sydney. Sydney is easy to work with and is very responsive. She noticed a package arrived while we were away and she brought it inside as well. Thank you for taking such great care of our cats - it put our minds at ease. We will definitely book with Sydney again!”
“Our cats LOVE Laura! Our cats have been known as the extremely timid types that people may be lucky enough to see. It's unheard of for them to be pet by people other than my husband and I. For this, it can take years to do. Laura was able to pet both of our cats this time around. That amazed me! We're very very grateful to have such a wonderful sitter for our precious kitties while we're away. She brought in our mail and watered our plants as well. We highly recommend Laura.”

“We had Kate do several drop in visits while we were out of town. She was very responsive, took great care of our 2 cats, and even brought some Christmas treats for them after confirming they were allowed to have them. We would definitely book with Kate in the future!”

I care for my pets by taking them to the dog park twice a week making sure they have food and water. Also making sure they are utd on their shots. For taking care of your pet tho that would go off of how you would want me to take care of your animals. You are the owner. I'm just there to help you out and take care of your animals.

“Heather took care of our cat for a week while we were out of town. It is so nice to be able to be out of town and know your pets are in good hands and will be well cared for. Our kitty is somewhat skiddish and cautious with new people, but he warmed right up to Heather. We appreciated the updates and photos and great communication. She has also taken care of our dog and we will have her back again. Highly recommend!”

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.
“This was our first time using Heather (and the family!!) for daycare for Nola! He had a blast and came home happy and tired. We are using Heather again for a longer trip and our worries about leaving Nola at home have evaporated!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family since before I could drive. You name it; dogs, cats, rabbits, chinchillas - I’ve watched them. So if you have other animals that need care, the more the merrier! I love dogs and will be as excited to give your dog a walk as they are! I can give references phone numbers upon request. I have helped train dogs and puppies throughout the years. I may even be able to teach your dog a new trick 😉 I have great patience and a calm, easy-going nature. My husband and myself have opened our home with a very large fenced in backyard to welcome your dogs. Between the two of us, your dogs will feel right at home. My husband is also certified in dog massages (yes it’s a thing! 😅) so if you have a pup with joint or mobility issues, he can assist with that as a bonus! If you are welcoming me into your home, I will be sure it looks just as good as when you left it in my care. Please send me a request to chat about your furry family member - I look forward to meeting you! I currently work part-time and my husband also has a flexible schedule to ensure your dogs have the attention they need during their stay with us. We have a comfortable environment with a large fenced in backyard for your dog to play in and have frequent potty breaks. If your dog needs their own space, we have extra rooms in the house that can be their own during their stay.
“This was our first experience leaving our dogs at day care. We were nervous, but everything went great. Evelyn took wonderful care of them, took every nuance into consideration (one of our dogs is still a puppy), was always in touch and sent us cute pictures. The dogs came home stress free. Definitely recommended and we will be back again.”
“Emily responded quickly to my request for daycare and we did a meet & greet the day before to make sure my dog Wolfie and her two dogs Gus & Bailey got along. It was perfect, all was good. The actual day of daycare Wolfie couldn’t wait to get inside Emily’s house! Wolfie played a lot and was very chill/tired for the evening. Emily is very nice and took great care of my pup! Highly recommend. Thanks Emily!!”

About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“5 stars! Can’t sing Julie enough praises! I feel so absolutely at ease while my Cookie is in Julie’s care. Thank you for being a safe and comfortable place for our pup.”
“Perfect. My pup went into Christina and Jeremy's house a little nervous and came out wagging. Christina and Jeremy were well set up, easy to work with and clearly like dogs. My guy will be back!”
“Hanna watched my Kira today. She sent me pictures and assured me that Kira was having a great time. She has a nice fenced yard and her dog Sadie is so sweet! Sadie also has the same amount of energy as my dog, they played well together. Kira is wiped out from today’s play day and can’t wait to see Hanna and Sadie again next week!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of dogs.

In addition, in the past, I have had a few repeat clients that I saw weekly as well as additional as-needed clients. I have experience with drop-ins, walks, and house sitting for multiple days. I truly care about your dog’s well-being and will treat them like my own, providing a safe, loving, and playful environment! I have a full-time job with 1-2 work from home days depending on the week. I can be available in the morning, mid-day, afternoon, or evening on the weekends and certain week days. Happy to work with you to fit the needs of you and your pet:).

My goal is to ensure they feel loved and cared for, just like they would with their own family. I currently live in an apartment in downtown Madison, therefore I do not have a yard for your fur baby to play in.

I also have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate short-notice bookings, making things easy for busy pet parents.

About: Animals have always been apart of my life in both big & small ways. Being able to care for other pets, is just an extension of me caring for my own. My goal is to make your pet(s) as comfortable, loved, and cared for as if you had never left. I pride myself in the small details & going above and beyond what is expected. ~ Experience with young puppies to senior dog, and diabetic dogs. Including giving insulin. ~ Extensive experience with cats including specialized medical needs. ~ Comfortable giving oral, topical, or injectable medications. MY BACKGROUND: At an early age while growing up on five acres in the country, I was often taking care of a variety of animals, including our dogs and many barn cats. I was a bit of a cat Momma, often times assisting with extra care like bottle feeding or treating illnesses as they came. Eventually I started taking care of our neighbors animals when they were away. Throughout childhood I had several special cats that became my indoor pets & my first adopted dog at the age of 13. After high school I worked at a stable. My ‘Cat Whisper’ abilities came in handy while here- tending to the cats & ensuring the kittens grew up & had a chance to be healthy, loved barn cats. As a young adult, I cared for my two indoor cats & my Boxer puppy - a dream come true. ADDITIONALLY: I have almost 10 years of experience as a CNA and have completed 1 year of nursing school. You can feel confident knowing that your pet is in capable hands. I’m currently working from home & homeschool my daughter, allowing my weekdays to be flexible. I’m also home most weekends. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in care, walks, and extended care. FOR THOSE LOOKING TO PLAN AHEAD… I have my Spring/ Summer 2027 currently unavailable as I don’t have enough information yet to determine my exact availability. If you have an upcoming trip you are planing and in need of care, or looking for reoccurring care during these dates, please message me directly to get priority booking as my availability opens. My goal is to make your pet(s) as comfortable, loved, and cared for as if you had never left, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I know that every family has a different way of caring for their pets. Therefore, I will work with you to find out how best to care for your animal by asking questions up front before I even step foot in your home. Communication is key. At the end of my visit, I will give you an overview of your pets time with me including sending pictures. If there’s anything else you’re looking for, just ask.
About: I have 2 dogs of my own. Also I have experience with older dogs and puppies. I love all animals! I'm not scared of much either! I currently work part time. So I'm pretty open. Tuesdays and every other Sunday I'm available afternoon. That could potentially change if more work comes in. I care for my pets by taking them to the dog park twice a week making sure they have food and water. Also making sure they are utd on their shots. For taking care of your pet tho that would go off of how you would want me to take care of your animals. You are the owner. I'm just there to help you out and take care of your animals.
About: Hello! I’m an experienced pet care specialist, specializing in dog care! I have been lucky enough to work across the country with all ages, breeds, and needs for the last 3 years. I have experience caring for special needs pets, administering medication, large breeds, as well as farm animals. I am excited to bring a nurturing and fun environment for your pets in your absence!

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, from very young to end of life care. Taking care of animals and bonding with them is such a special thing, and I would love to help aid dogs lives through proper exercise! Going into college in the fall and will have a part time job soon; I have plenty of free time to work around with and will be very flexible with my schedule. I currently have one cat (around 3) and one dog (around 10) who I love very much. My dog is getting a little too old to go on longer walks with me so I think this will be a great opportunity to help younger dogs get that exercise in. I’m very easy to talk to and flexible and would be happy to make sure your animal has water after the walk/ a treat and will provide doggy bags for bathroom needs.
About: Hi, I’m Bethany! I’ve been caring for pets professionally for over 10 years, and I truly treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other furry friends, I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. From energetic puppies to laid back seniors, I’ve worked with them all and love every minute of it. I’m also a stay-at-home mom to a sweet toddler who comes with me on all visits. He loves all pets and always calm, quiet, and close to me. Your pet will still receive my full attention, love, and care, with a gentle, nurturing presence alongside us. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. Let’s set up a meet and greet I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help! I am a stay at home mom so that I can attend to your babies at any given time or help out in an emergency! I can provide for your babies with drop in visits or dog walking! I will provide everything you may need plus got the extra mile for you! I love on each pet as it my own, and send lots of pictures and updates!!
“Lensy is so wonderful! She’s consistently communicative and sends such fun photos. Absolutely incredible to have her care for Petey & shows above and beyond consideration for both my pets :) Look forward to having her walk again!”
About: I’ve take care of dogs for over 10+yrs. When family are out of town they always call me. I like to take dogs on long walks, feed them and take them to the dog parks. My full time job is ending with in the next 2weeks so I am free for the whole summer. When the summer is over I’ll only be available after 2:30pm I will be watching the dogs at the clients home or watching the dogs out on the community. This will also depend on the rules of the clients home
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. From the responsibility of family pets, to walking dogs for family friends and neighbors when I was 8 years old. As an adult I have rescued senior dogs, I have a soft spot for them. I also have experience with bully breeds and absolutely love them. I love dogs of all breeds and I can’t wait to meet yours. I currently go to school part time, it is all computer based and self paced so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies while you’re away. Available during the week and weekends. Available for holidays with enough notice. I live near the lake and love to go for walks. I would prefer to care for your pet in their own environment as I know when you are gone it is stressful enough for them. I do currently have one dog of my own. I do live in an apartment complex with other dogs present.

“Thank you Christine!! Teddy loved his stay with Christine. She made sure he was comfortable and got plenty of play time. I greatly appreciated her daily pictures and updates. I could see she was treating him like one of her own! He loved getting to play all day and go on walks and to the park! Thank you again for taking such good care of my fur baby. We will definitely be back!”
“We felt Teddy was very well taken care of. He got lots of love, plenty of tennis ball throws, and sweet cuddles from Heather and her daughter. It felt great knowing Teddy was in such good hands while we were away.”
“Ryan and Martha took wonderful care of my dog. They treated her as a member of their family. They took her for walks and sent daily pictures. I will certainly ask them to care for Ella again when needed.”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Emma was absolutely amazing! Oscar (our Springer Spaniel pup) loved his weekend with Emma and her dogs, and came back so happy - and tired - from all the fun. They played, went on walks and I got all the photos along the way! We definitely plan to use Emma's services again- hopefully very soon!”
“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) =)”
“Stephanie was an amazing sitter. She messaged me daily with pictures too. Walks, playtime and belly rubs were a daily occurrence with Mack. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come back home. 😊”
“Once again, Laura took the best care of my pup! It’s such a relief knowing that my dog has a playmate (Shadow) and an attentive caretaker when I am out of town. Laura is very communicative and sends lots of (appreciated) updates :)”
“Our two dogs had a great stay with Michele and her family, and we couldn't be happier with their care! We've had a long-term house and dog sitter who recently relocated away from town, so our dogs had never had the experience of staying away from home without us before. We were a little concerned about how that would go, but right from the start we were reassured by Michelle's friendliness, her evident dog smarts, and her long experience with (sometimes challenging) pups. Before and throughout the boarding process, communication was just right -- clear and relevant, frequent enough to be reassuring but not at all excessive. When we returned home and picked up the dogs, they were in great shape: happy, relaxed, and clearly in no rush to leave Michelle and her family behind :) We'll definitely hope to have them stay again in the future.”
“Robert was a great host for Mazzi. He sent daily updates/photos. Robert has a large backyard that Mazzi loved to run around during play time.”
“Ryan, Krista, and the family were absolutely wonderful! This was Captains first overnight at a strangers home since we adopted him 4 months ago. They were very loving and made sure to keep us up to date while away and at pick up. We will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them for others.”
“Rona took excellent care of our high energy dog! He absolutely loved getting to explore and sniff around her spacious backyard, and he was very exhausted when we picked him up. We appreciated her daily updates and pics/videos. This was our first time having Rona take care of our dog, and we would happily book with her again.”
“Christina and Jeremy did great with our dog. She hadn't spent a ton of time with other dogs or cats before her stay, but C and J were so confident that it would work out and it did! They were super-responsive while we were gone and sent many sweet photos :) We would absolutely have our pup stay with them again.”
“We had an excellent experience with Nicole! She was reliable and communicative. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos—it gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality, trustworthy dog sitter.”
“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!”
“First time using Rover. Brad was available for Thanksgiving. Close to home. Flexible on drop off and pick up times. Responsive. Sent pup updates. Had other dogs to play with. Fenced in yard. Easy to work with. Would recommend and use again.”
“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.”
