“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”

“Our now 5-month-old puppy was so excited to be back at Sarah's. He immediately started playing with Rip and Mayla, and he was still playing with them when I came to pick him up three days later. It makes me happy knowing how much he loves being there. And I appreciate knowing that Sarah gives him the same love, care, and attention as she does her own two dogs. (It was also great that he was exhausted for the next day and a half after we got home haha.)”

“Duane and Lauren were wonderful to work with and took great care of our two dogs!!! Their communication was terrific and they were very flexible. We would love to have our dogs stay with them again!!”

“Rebecca was great with our dog Luci. She sent pics regularly and was outside with her alot. It's nice to be able to travel knowing your fur baby is well taken care of.”


“Stacy welcomed my dog into her house and treated him as her own. Rudy loved playing and snuggling with her family! She communicated well and made sure she understood his needs. I will use Stacy again.”

“Ellen was a great host for our sheepdog! Communication was excellent from start to finish. She sent pictures and video so we knew that Lucy was enjoying her time. Big fenced in backyard was a bonus. Highly recommend.”

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful!! She took amazing care of my dog Maisie. My dog had so much fun with her and the other dogs. Jessica helped manage her allergies and was in contact with me everyday with updates, pictures, and videos. Would definitely book with her again. You can tell she cares a lot n treated my dog as her own she was in such good hands. I could enjoy my vacation without worrying. She’s so wonderful!!! Cant thank her enough for taking care of my baby girl.”

“Maura and her husband provide the perfect experience for my dogs. They guarantee your trip without any concern and make your dog happy. They sent me updates with photos every day. It makes us very comfortable to enjoy our travel. Also, they genuinely love pets. My dogs slept in the same bed as them and played in a beautiful fenced garden. My dogs found a second family, for sure. So, I prefer to go from Madison to Fort Atkinson because the perfect service and true love is rare.”

“We just completed our dogs 3rd stay at Sarah and Zach's house and we already have stay #4 booked. Our always have so much fun and get lots of outdoor playtime. We love the photo and video updates and especially enjoy knowing they are being so well cared for while we are away.”

“Amanda and Paul’s family is wonderful. I can’t say enough good things. They are loving and sweet, and experienced will all types of dogs. I felt really safe and happy to be leaving my pup in their care.”

“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.”

“Julie & her family were AMAZING with our girl! We got pictures everyday from their walk & naps. It was such a relief to know our dog was taken care of and in the best of hands. 100% will book with Julie again!”

About: Pets have always been family to me. My own dog, Charlie, was by my side for over 16 years, through military moves, raising two boys, and every season of life in between. Caring for him taught me that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, I'll care for them with the same patience, love, and attention I'd want for my own. My goal is simple: for you to leave knowing your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. As someone who is used to having a pet at home with me at all times, I miss that dog energy! I am excited to care for yours with attention, affection, and reliability. Although I have an unfenced yard, your pet's safety is always my priority. I use leashes for all outdoor time and love taking walks, playing, and giving pets plenty of exercise and attention.
“Katy & Dennis did an excellent job of taking care of our troop of 3 poodles! They are friendly and very accommodating with our pets. We received pictures throughout their stay which was fun to see...especially all 3 sitting at the same time! Thanks for watching our pups while we were away!”

“Tessa has been an absolute delight and I'm so glad to have trusted her with my Trixie. She helped celebrate Trixie's birthday and took her on so many walks and ample outside time! Highly recommend Tessa (and Tennessee)!”

“We felt so comfortable leaving our puppy with Maura, she was in great hands and was showered with so much love the entire time she was there. We are so thankful we found her!”

“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!”

“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. Ida had a great time with Sarah, her husband, and her dog! They made sure she got outside every few hours and kept track of how much she ate and used the potty the whole time. They were very conscious of her allergies as well. I will definitely book again!”

“My dog had a great time staying at Tina and Cameron's for a fun-filled day of daycare. She enjoyed two walks, got to run around in their large fenced in backyard, and was able to socialize with their two dogs! Tina was so sweet and I felt really comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. You can tell right away that her and Cameron are extremely knowledgeable and have a lot of experience in caring for dogs. My dog came home very happy and ready for a nap - perfect! :) Definitely will be a repeating customer!”

“Perrin was amazing with my 6 month old ball of energy. I’ve been having a tough time adjusting to puppy mom-ing and he had some awesome tips and feedback. So helpful! My puppy had a wonderful day running around with Ava and came home happy and very sleepy. I would 100% recommend this sitter!”

“Absolutely amazing experience with our dog sitters! 🐾 They took such incredible care of my mini dachshunds, Nugget and Muffin, and treated them like their own. I got updates, photos, and total peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious how much they truly love animals, and my pups came home happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Nugget and Muffin can be a little spoiled and needy at times, but they were so patient, attentive, and loving with them. I honestly couldn’t ask for better people to trust with my dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitters! 💕”

“Nicole is absolutely wonderful. I came to her with a dog who was super anxious at his last sitter (to no fault of the sitter), stubborn, and a senior, and she is so understanding and kind. Ollie is vocal and set in his ways, and she was able to make his experience super positive and he really seemed to like her. I will absolutely be booking her anytime she is available, and as long as she wants Ollie back.”

“Chanse and her children (who are absolutely adorable!!!) took amazing care of Doc and Gunner. My husband and I were able to enjoy family time without worrying about our babies. 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!!!!!”

Bode was diagnosed with lymphoma at 5 and has been in remission for 2 years. I grew up with labs as well as shitzus and my dad has a 9 year old golden. I would prefer to meet any candidate prior to boarding as they will be in the same space as my golden, he’s a gentle giant and gets along with all animals. He is a service animal so I have experience in training and younger dogs as well. I work from home full time and have a lot of free time to give during the week. Weekends are busy for me at the moment but will slow down come winter. I work from home so week days are great I have a lot of flexibility for walks and play time and potty breaks.

About: Agnes Mable, my dachshund of 12 years taught me patience better than anyone. I love spending time cuddling, giving belly rubs, sniffling frito feet, & running around the yard chasing them like a screaming banshee. I stay at friends & neighbors houses frequently when they're away to watch their dogs, cats, & fish. I also have friends & neighbors dogs over for weeks at a time. I've been doing this the since moving back to Wisconsin in April 2024. I love taking care of pets like their my own. Once I have a fenced in yard, I will welcome another dachshund into my life, but until then I fill my cup with caring for other's doggos & kitty cats. I'm excited to meet you! Extra treats for pugs & extra belly rubs for the heavy weights that can fetch & return! I work from home & the days I'm traveling for work will be unavailable to book. We'll spend all day together! I've got a spacious yard, large back deck that gets direct sun light for the one's that like to bake, & if they get along with other dogs, sometimes I walk over to my sisters with them to meet my favorite pug, Potato! I live in a duplex on the bottom floor so it's easy in & out, no stairs. My yard is massive with lots of plants & trees to sniff around. I'll always take my fur friends outside on a leash. I do have a small crate available for dogs under 15 pounds, toys, treats, & extra leashes just in case you forget something. Most importantly, I have a big lamby & a small lamby.
“So flexible and helpful with my pup! I trust her 100% and know when I pick my dog up she will be tired from playing outside, with toys or with other dogs! I highly recommend Ashlee and will continue to use her for all of our dog sitting needs!”

About: I have helped take care of animals ever since I was 5. Over the years, I have dog sat for friends and neighbors along with providing support when needed. I have never not had a pet and have always made sure to do my research to ensure I am treating any pet in the best way possible along with ensuring what is and isn’t safe for different animals. I have many friends that come to me first when they need help, especially with their animals. Many of my friends have called me a dog whisperer. I currently work full time from home as an accountant. I tend to be home most weekends and my hours make it very easy to fit any animal into my schedule. I have 2 rabbit currently at my home and my neighbors have a dog, cats, and chickens. I would always make sure that the animal is supervised as I know how important a pet is and the responsibility necessary to ensure it stays safe. I did recently have a baby as well that would be joining me most of the time. I work from home full time and recently had a baby that I take care of full time too. As long as animals are comfortable with a baby, I am always happy to help out. I provide safe, reliable, and loving care for pets in my home or my client’s home by following their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and medication if needed. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and comfort. I also monitor their behavior closely and keep owners updated for peace of mind.
About: I grew up on a horse farm and always had a variety of animals around me. A cat and dog were our constant companions, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. As an adult, I realize that growing up that way taught me responsibility from an early age. I understand how important it is to have someone you can rely on and trust when you’re away from home, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in my care. When I care for your pets, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll give them the attention, affection, exercise, food, and care they need—and of course, I’ll clean up after them and leave your home just as I found it, if not better.

“Our now 5-month-old puppy was so excited to be back at Sarah's. He immediately started playing with Rip and Mayla, and he was still playing with them when I came to pick him up three days later. It makes me happy knowing how much he loves being there. And I appreciate knowing that Sarah gives him the same love, care, and attention as she does her own two dogs. (It was also great that he was exhausted for the next day and a half after we got home haha.)”

“Duane and Lauren were wonderful to work with and took great care of our two dogs!!! Their communication was terrific and they were very flexible. We would love to have our dogs stay with them again!!”

“Rebecca was great with our dog Luci. She sent pics regularly and was outside with her alot. It's nice to be able to travel knowing your fur baby is well taken care of.”

“Ellen was a great host for our sheepdog! Communication was excellent from start to finish. She sent pictures and video so we knew that Lucy was enjoying her time. Big fenced in backyard was a bonus. Highly recommend.”

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful!! She took amazing care of my dog Maisie. My dog had so much fun with her and the other dogs. Jessica helped manage her allergies and was in contact with me everyday with updates, pictures, and videos. Would definitely book with her again. You can tell she cares a lot n treated my dog as her own she was in such good hands. I could enjoy my vacation without worrying. She’s so wonderful!!! Cant thank her enough for taking care of my baby girl.”

“Maura and her husband provide the perfect experience for my dogs. They guarantee your trip without any concern and make your dog happy. They sent me updates with photos every day. It makes us very comfortable to enjoy our travel. Also, they genuinely love pets. My dogs slept in the same bed as them and played in a beautiful fenced garden. My dogs found a second family, for sure. So, I prefer to go from Madison to Fort Atkinson because the perfect service and true love is rare.”

“We just completed our dogs 3rd stay at Sarah and Zach's house and we already have stay #4 booked. Our always have so much fun and get lots of outdoor playtime. We love the photo and video updates and especially enjoy knowing they are being so well cared for while we are away.”

“Val and his wife took such amazing care of my dog. She was well-loved and they are truly the kindest people. It was my first time using rover and will definitely be a repeat customer in the future. Thanks again!”

“Amanda and Paul’s family is wonderful. I can’t say enough good things. They are loving and sweet, and experienced will all types of dogs. I felt really safe and happy to be leaving my pup in their care.”

About: Pets have always been family to me. My own dog, Charlie, was by my side for over 16 years, through military moves, raising two boys, and every season of life in between. Caring for him taught me that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, I'll care for them with the same patience, love, and attention I'd want for my own. My goal is simple: for you to leave knowing your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. As someone who is used to having a pet at home with me at all times, I miss that dog energy! I am excited to care for yours with attention, affection, and reliability. Although I have an unfenced yard, your pet's safety is always my priority. I use leashes for all outdoor time and love taking walks, playing, and giving pets plenty of exercise and attention.
“Katy & Dennis did an excellent job of taking care of our troop of 3 poodles! They are friendly and very accommodating with our pets. We received pictures throughout their stay which was fun to see...especially all 3 sitting at the same time! Thanks for watching our pups while we were away!”

“Yoki and Derek were great with Ziggy and Zoey, who were staying overnight away from me for the first time in their lives! They were very patient with my pups and generously shared photos throughout the duration of the dog’s stay.”

“Kaycee and Robert are the best! They took such good care of our little dog, who has never spent time away from us. They took him on walks, played with him, and kept him warm and safe. Our dog loved Tank (their dog) and the kids. He had a blast with this lovely family. They are kind and warm people who took excellent care of our dog. It is evident that they are expert dog owners who have fostered and trained many dogs. We will definitely book them next time we leave town. We highly recommend them!”


“This was Baylee's first boarding experience since I adopted her and she seems very happy and healthy. She loves walks and Erika provided multiple daily walks. Baylee's medication and feed requirements were met. I couldn't expect more than a happy dog!”
