“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“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.)”
“Olive and Stuart seemed to have another wonderful stay with Deanne. She does a great job of keeping us abreast of their daily activities while we are away; even when she knows we cannot be in contact. They arrived back here at home with us happy and healthy. We will definitely continue to book "doggie vacations" for the "kids' with Deanne!”
“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!!”
“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.”
About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day.

I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.
“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”
“Thank you Katy, DJ and girls for caring for Doc this past weekend. Thank you for the pictures and updates through the weekend. The long walks and cuddles are fantastic.”
“Kylie was the best ever! I had a worry free vacation . She was very organized you can tell that she loves what she do! She sent us pictures of jazzy while we were gone she took her for walks and she also groomed her for us! She's so knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. The best experience ever! Thank You”

“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!”

“Teri was kind and conscientious throughout our interaction and took good care of my pets, near as I can tell. She only had them two days, but seemed to get both animals to open up and interact. She deserves the acclaim she has on her profile. I'll definitely be keeping her in mind for any future boarding needs as both cats really seemed to enjoy the time spent in her home.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of our family. Last year, we said goodbye to our English Bulldog after 12 wonderful years, and while my family is not quite ready for another forever pup yet, I am excited to open our home and hearts to other dogs in the meantime. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I'll treat your dog like part of the family. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing company, I'm happy to provide a loving and comfortable environment.

I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits with a schedule that can accommodate most pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in the country on a full acre with a large fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. Our home provides a calm, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while away from their families. Pets receive lots of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I’ll always treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay.
“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.”

“Jennifer was wonderful with my cats (and fish)! She went above and beyond with gathering mail and also keeping my plants alive in the wretched heat. I was able to totally relax on vacation knowing that my home was under her care. Will absolutely book her again soon.”
About: Worked at a dog kennel and also fostering dogs for 14 years. Will work with problematic dogs. I can also provide baths and nail trims as well. I currently work at night so I could do appointments up until like 2pm depending on location or 1pm I work Monday through Friday. My work hours at my full-time job is 3 PM till 1 AM. Weekends are open I can only provide care for dogs in the owners homes. Willing to stay overnight with them or just check in on them can do that around my work schedule. A little bit more flexibility for hours there.
About: I have had cats in my family since the day I was born. Currently, there are five cats in my home and I help care for all of them! I make sure they are fed, have their water changed, and have their litter scooped every day. I have lots of experience with cats of all ages from 2-month-old kittens to 20-year-old seniors. I have been trusted to help take care of other people’s cats as well, and I hope you can trust me now to do the same! I am a college student, and so I am busy on weekdays during the school year, but during the summer, I am happy to do all weekdays and weekends during working hours (depending on my schedule with any other jobs) while you are on a trip that requires leaving your cats at home.
“We just got home, Zoey had a lot to say about everything, but mostly she was saying that Erica and Kayla both did a great job with her. All is well, and Zoey says to call her Rover friends the next time we go away!”
“Renee did a fantastic job with in-home visits with my dog Rookie. It was my first time ever using Rover and Renee went above and beyond. She made the process very easy and Rookie had a great weekend with her!”
“Great communication! Sent pics and explanations of them. As a first time boarder, I had no real idea what to expect. Actually, I had a huge variety of things to fear lol. The daily photos and little update quips ("she loves the rocker by the window"), etc) salved my fretting immensely. Then, when I was involved in a horrible motor vehicle accident during the boarding, she was amazing with her willingness to aduust times ariubd her wirk schedule and when I could arrange transportation back home. This Rover provider is a 6 out of 5 star awesome-sauce experience. Don't pass her up!”
About: I’ve both lived with and taken care of cats my whole life. Now as an adult I have two of my own! I’m great at understanding cat boundaries so no matter the temperament I’ve never had issues watching anyone’s fur babies!

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.
“Brandi was WONDERFUL. She was so welcoming and accommodating despite us intruding on a holiday weekend, and so welcoming of our Pup. Throughout our days of doggy daycare, we received updates and pictures and video of our Piper enjoying her stay and new friends, and at the end of each day, we received a very happy (and very ready-to-go-home-and-nap) dog. We used her back-to-back for two days, and Piper recognized she was going got another visit on Day 2 when we turned down Brandi's road, and immediately started crying excitedly in anticipation, all but pulling me out of the car when we opened the door! It's a shame we're not closer to Janesville for regular use of booking, but if we're ever needing to go through the area en route to our destinations, Brandi will be our first choice for daycare or boarding.”
“Sarah and her pack did awesome!!! Can't thank her enough for taking in Winnie on such short notice. When I picked up Winnie I was taken back at how much Winnie had bonded with Sarah in such a short period of time. Sarah was aware of Winnie's IBD issues and updated me on how she did. I really appreciated her for that!!!! This family definitely loves dogs!!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“This was my first time using this service and we were out of state, so I was nervous about all of it. Then I met Victoria and she is absolutely wonderful!! I was worried leaving my puppy with someone I hadn't met before, but everything went so well!! Victoria was so nice and attentive to my Larry. She sent messages, photos, and videos throughout Larry's visit. We just did doggie day care, dropping him off in the morning and picking him up in the evening, and I knew he enjoyed himself, because he was excited to go back in the morning. When we come back to Wisconsin, I will definitely contact Victoria again for puppy sitting!!”
“This was our first visit with Deanne. Doggy Daycare was a hit! Cash was happy when I picked him up. He was sound asleep on the couch within a 1/2 of getting home. I think he had a busy day with his new lil buddy!”
About: e grown up with dogs my whole life and consider them part of the family. I love being around dogs and have experience house-sitting, walking, and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and individual needs, and I always make sure dogs feel safe, cared for, and loved while in my care. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I have a golden retriever puppy, and since I grew up with dogs, caring for him feels very natural to me. Every day starts and ends with walks, and throughout the week I make sure he gets plenty of exercise and socialization by taking him to the dog park regularly. At home, we spend a lot of time playing tug-of-war or fetch to keep him active and engaged. Because he has a sensitive stomach, I also prepare fresh homemade meals for him twice a day, so meal prep is built into my routine as well. One of my favorite parts of the day is winding down in the evening by cuddling up with my pup and reading a good book. Overall, caring for him is woven into both my daily schedule and the way I like to relax and spend my time. I am going back to school in the fall and do not currently work so my schedule is extremely flexible to take care of your pups :) I provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment for pets in both my home and my client’s home. In my home, pets have access to a secure fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a friendly golden retriever puppy who enjoys being around other dogs, but I can easily separate him if a pet prefers their own space or needs a calmer environment. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I have experience caring for dogs with sensitive stomachs, so I’m comfortable preparing fresh meals, following dietary restrictions, and administering basic care as needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while away from their owners. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their familiar routine and environment. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cleanup, and lots of companionship, while also treating the home respectfully and keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. I house and dog sit for a variety of people based on recommendations. I am very passionate about animals and will always take very good care of them. I am currently only working as a pet sitter.

I am a stay at home mom looking to combine my love for animals with be able to stay at home with my daughter. I own 3 cats and two dogs. I have experience grooming both dogs and cats professionally. I clean the cats litter once a day. There is always water available for all my pets. I provide enrichment exercises throughout the day for my dogs such as lick mats, puzzles, and toys. My dogs also have access to the fenced in back yard as well.
“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!”

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends!

“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! 💕”
About: I have only had my own dogs to engage with but I love to teach them new tricks and help them learn. I am also not afraid to get to know shy pets I would be available after 4:30pm weekends but available all weekend. I work around having other jobs but am open those parts of the day I feed them, walk them, and teach them new tricks. I also love to play with my dogs to get the energy out of them
About: I’ve always lived with animals and loved them, but have worked at 2 animal shelters and 2 doggy daycares. I truly enjoy being with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’m very reliable and will accommodate whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable. Since I know pet CPR and pet first aid I know the steps to take in case of an emergency. Your baby will always be in safe hands when I’m looking after them! I’m home full time and have four dogs myself, cats, as well as a 8 year old daughter and 2 year old son so pet care and child care is a full time staple in my home anyways. I’m never away from home long unless I’m going to run errands. I have four friendly dogs of varying ages, so I’m very experienced caring for pets with different needs and personalities. I always follow any routines and rules you set for your pet, including potty breaks whenever they need them. Safety is very important to me, and when it’s time to come inside, I make sure the environment is free of anything your pet could get into or accidentally choke on.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with a wide range of pets, especially rescue dogs and senior animals.

While I don’t have a pet right now (just got married and moved so it's been a crazy few months), I miss that connection and would love to help others care for their furry family members.

About: I have been responsible for caring for family and friends' pets for quite a few years. Some of the few things I do are let them out, feed them, and replenish their water. I also take them for walks . I am a college student so my schedule is very open. I have a few hours between classes, Which will make it easy to go take care of pets!

About: My family has always had dogs and cats growing up that started out as puppies and taking care of them every day. I take them out, feed them, and clean up after them. I am currently working full time at my job, but I don't work Wednesdays or Sundays and I could do Monday and Saturday mornings before 2. I can walk, feed, and look after pets. I have experience in both dogs and cats, so I know how to clean up with both pets.
About: I have had pets my entire life, and have been around friends and family who do as well. I grew up with a dog and multiple cats so I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have also recently found an interest in visiting animals at the shelter and gently connecting with them where they’re at and giving them the love they deserve in their own individual way. I value how every animal is very unique and enjoy getting to spend time with and understand them. I currently have some part time things going on, but multiple times a week I can fit in time for pet care including time on the weekends. At this point I won’t be able to care for pets in my home. But I am responsible and trustworthy, and can follow directions and ask follow up questions should there be any-trying my best to provide the most honest and authentic pet care as possible.

“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.)”
“Olive and Stuart seemed to have another wonderful stay with Deanne. She does a great job of keeping us abreast of their daily activities while we are away; even when she knows we cannot be in contact. They arrived back here at home with us happy and healthy. We will definitely continue to book "doggie vacations" for the "kids' with Deanne!”
“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”
“Thank you Katy, DJ and girls for caring for Doc this past weekend. Thank you for the pictures and updates through the weekend. The long walks and cuddles are fantastic.”
“Kylie was the best ever! I had a worry free vacation . She was very organized you can tell that she loves what she do! She sent us pictures of jazzy while we were gone she took her for walks and she also groomed her for us! She's so knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. The best experience ever! Thank You”
“Boarding with Summer was great! She made it all very easy and I was never worried about my dog. She even sent a picture of him and gave me some updates to let me know that he was doing well.”
About: I have an 8 year old coonhound named Trigger. He is the light of my life. I love to care for family and friends dogs in my free time. I work 50% from home and 50% in the office. I am off Saturday through Monday. I have the flexibility needed to provide care as needed. I have an incredibly friendly and easy going coonhound named Trigger. In his older age, he has become quite the couch potato. In his younger years, he loved going to doggy day care to romp around. We have a large unfenced yard for dogs to enjoy.
“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!”
“Rebecca provided kind and insightful care, recognizing how to best make our 12 year old dog feel comfortable while we were away for 2 weeks. He was calm and pleasantly tired after his visit :). We appreciated knowing Charlie was at the home of a dog lover receiving personal, excellent care!”
“Joanne was a LIFE SAVIOR ! I had a last minute cancellation and she responded right away and was able to help take care of Atlas. She was super communicative, shared great photos, and took amazing care of Atlas incredibly impromptu! Thank you thank you thank you !”
About: My lifelong love of dogs has turned into an opportunity to help others by caring for your furry friends in my home. I ❤️ dogs! With my part-time schedule I have am able to spend plenty of time at home with furry friends of all sizes. I am flexible to care for dogs during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have extra crates if that would be more convenient for you.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of our family. Last year, we said goodbye to our English Bulldog after 12 wonderful years, and while my family is not quite ready for another forever pup yet, I am excited to open our home and hearts to other dogs in the meantime. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I'll treat your dog like part of the family. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing company, I'm happy to provide a loving and comfortable environment. I work from home full-time during the work week, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship and supervision while in my care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits with a schedule that can accommodate most pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in the country on a full acre with a large fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. Our home provides a calm, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while away from their families. Pets receive lots of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I’ll always treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay.
“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.”
“Clarissa really looked after our dog while we were on vacation for 8 days. She picked him up and ripped him off. He came back looking healthy and relaxed. Much better than boarding. Will use her services again in future.”
“Larissa and her husband were wonderful with our two dogs. They provided lots of snuggles, pictures and they treated our dogs like they were their own. I would highly recommend them. She did everything to calm our babies when the thunderstorms rolled in. Thank you!”
“We have dealt with Alexis mainly. She is great! She is very accommodating, which I appreciate. She took great care of our 2 old boys and I wasn't worried about leaving them with her at all. Both dogs take several meds twice a day and she was fine with giving them those. Our 16 year old has accidents sometimes and she was totally understanding of that. In addition, she is just a genuinely nice person. When one of our dogs got sick and we had to cancel a scheduled stay, she asked about him several times. I highly recommend Alexis and Jessica!”
“She is very helpful and dedicated to being the best. I will always use her service if needed in the future. She kept in communication and sent many updates and pictures! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR BEING YOU”
“Ashlee kept our Sallie Mae for a couple days and was a great experience. Communication was great all the way from scheduling a meet and greet to drop off and pick up. Will use her again for sure.”
