“Marie was so amazing with our sweet pup. We were sad to leave her on Christmas Eve, but could not have found a better sitter than Marie and her family. She was well loved and even got to have some new experiences! We will definitely use Marie again 🐾🥰”
“Heather and her family welcomed Darcy back to their home with open arms. She sent photos of Darcy throughout her stay so we could see how she was doing. She looked so happy and comfortable in their home. This was her second stay and we’ve already booked another. We are so grateful to have found this home away from home for Darcy!”
“Kristin and Bruce did a great job with my older dog, Madigan. She is sometimes anere xious to be away from home, but she was at ease from the minute we walked in the door. This is the first time in the last six years we did not have someone come in to the home. The pictures showed a relaxed, happy dog and her tail and ears were high when I arrived to pick her up. Dogs know people and she is loyal to "her pack", but our dog loved being a part of Kristin and Bruce's pack. I highly recommend Kristin and Bruce. You will not be disappointed!”
“This is our second time booking with Christine, and she is a great sitter. You can tell that she truly cares about the health and happiness of all of the animals in her home. We are very grateful that she was able to accommodate a last minute request, and she sent so many cute pictures! We will definitely send Georgie to her again.”
“Jenny and her family did an excellent job watching Teddy and giving him the best experience during the holidays. It was even his birthday and they went above and beyond to throw a birthday party for him! We are so appreciative of how well Teddy was treated and all the photo updates were reassuring. Teddy is looking forward to his next stay! Highly recommend! 🤍”
“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!”
“Amazing people who love and care for my pup while he is with them - they also send the cutest pictures and updates! They were also super understanding when I got stuck in traffic on the way to pick my dog up.”
“Fabulous! Mack gave her 4 paws up and he would have given her more but he only has 4 paws. He has been online trying one to buy me more airline trips so he can go back to Steph and live the good life. Can’t praise her enough. Deb Spencley”
“Duane and Lauren are always so accommodating and flexible when we book with them! Our pup is always exciting to stay with them and it makes me happy to know she likes to be there! Thank you so much Duane and Lauren for always taking care of Stormi!”
“Michelle and her family provided a wonderful home for Roscoe while we were out of town! I was very grateful for the photos she shared of Roscoe having adventures. Thank you, Michelle!”
“Edith was so amazing. We knew right from the beginning that she would take care of our baby. We wouldn't hesitate to come back again. Everything went so smoothly, I wouldn't worry one bit about booking. Thank you again! -Anne & Anthony”
“Robert is a great sitter. Would highly recommend. We’ll always check to see if he’s free first. Watson came home happy, tired, and well cared for.”
“My boy had the BEST time with Manjusha & Midhun! They went above and beyond caring for him - several photo/video updates, walks, treats, and cuddles. They made sure he was comfortable, loved, and spoiled as much as possible during his stay and I truly couldn’t have asked for better care. Zero complaints and highly, highly recommend! ❤️🥰”
“Our dog Blu was so happy at their home-he loved playing with his new friends and received excellent care. Each and every member of their family took such good care of him and kept us updated daily how he was doing. It really reassured us and helped us enjoy our trip. Thank you so much!”
“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 :)”
“Rona took excellent care of Basie and Mimi while we were away! She sent us regularly updates of the doggies sleeping, eating, and playing and she made sure that they wore their sweaters when they went outside in the chilly weather. Definitely would book again, she's amazing!”
“Brad was really great with communication and flexible. Cass seemed to have fit in well with his pack and made herself right at home in his place. I would definitely let Brad watch my doggo again :)”
“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.”

“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our 2 cats. They really loved her and how she interacted with them, and we felt confident the entire time we were away that they were being cared for as we would care for them. We 100% recommend, and will definitely book Melissa again next time we need a sitter for our purr monsters.”
“Caleigh is terrific. She has made it easy for us to go away and not have to worry about our cat. She is patient and kind. Our cat has attitude and Caleigh took the time to meet with our cat and allowed her to get to feel comfortable with Caleigh, which was amazing because we have family members who have never been able to get our cat to feel comfortable. At home we call her "Caleigh the cat whisperer". I've already recommended her to all my family and friends who need a cat sitter!”
“Hillary did an awesome job checking in on my cats while we were away for a few days. They are both very shy, but she got them to come out the first day she fed them!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond for my cats. She made sure I knew they were getting lots of love while I was out of town. Made an extra effort to keep their space clean and sent me so many photos so I didn’t have to miss them quite as much. I would recommend Jennifer to anyone who is looking for a sitter and will likely use her again in the future!!”
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.
“Lynne was absolutely amazing!!! It was as so comforting knowing that our little Riley was taken so well care of while we were out with friends. The pictures and follow up notes on their time together was wonderful to receive. We will definitely be booking with Lynne again. She truly cares about our furry family members”
“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!”

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.
“Christine is great! Our big rambunctious pup has so much fun there playing with the hang, he comes home good and tired. She takes great care of him, even gave him some of her homemade dog food when he wasn’t eating well (with permission of course). She really knows dogs well and we trust her completely with our pup.”
“Thank you for being available to watch Georgia! I You were amazing with communication on how she was doing and also so kind in getting to know and love our dog. Looking forward to rebooking with you soon!”

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.
“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: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting and working on my business. Currently available most days until July 20th! Will update calendar when I know more. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.
About: I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs in addition to raising my own. From daily walks to overnight sitting, I’ve had experience keeping pets happy, comfortable, and on their routine. While most of my experience comes from personal care, I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved and comfortable. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. With a flexible work from home schedule, I can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I also live with my family, including my stay at home mom, who is always around to provide companionship and dedicated care for your pet. We treat all dogs like family in our home. Your pup will have a friendly companion - our own dog, who loves having company. Pets are welcome to relax anywhere in the house, including on the furniture, and my dog is used to snuggling on the bed. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, while catering to their individual needs and routines.
“We used to have Leonardo stay in his crate while we were at work, but we knew he deserved something better. After looking through several profiles, Jamie really stood out. Once we read more about her, we felt confident Leo would have an amazing time with her and her dogs. Now he comes home completely tired and even falls asleep in the car, which says everything! Jamie is so kind and welcoming. we couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for him. We would absolutely recommend her. Thank you, Jamie, for treating Leo like your own while we’re at work!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have had dogs as part of my family since I was a child. Most recently, I’ve cared for our own dog for the past 13 years, giving me experience with every stage of life—from energetic puppy years to the special needs of senior dogs. In addition to caring for our own pets, I’ve welcomed dogs belonging to family, friends, and neighbors into our home. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and activity levels, and I understand that every dog has unique routines and needs. Your dog will be treated like part of our family in our clean, smoke-free home. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our dog-friendly children love helping give pets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment so you can feel confident your dog is well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our family’s daily routine. My husband works from home, so there’s almost always someone around during the day to provide companionship, potty breaks, and attention. In the evenings, our family is typically home together, so visiting dogs become part of our daily life and receive plenty of love and interaction. We understand how important consistency is for dogs and do our best to maintain their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and rest. Whether your dog enjoys playing in our fenced yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing with people nearby, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for throughout their stay. We treat every dog as if they were our own and strive to make their time away from home as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences before their stay. I closely follow your instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special care your dog may need. In our home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They have plenty of supervised time indoors, access to our fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and lots of attention throughout the day. We provide a clean, smoke-free, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax with people nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the care and companionship they need.
“Fast response, super friendly. Taylor was able to take our pup at short notice so we could have a family outing and not worry about the dog. He played all day and had a great time.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Allison was great! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and updates. I felt very comfortable knowing Hodu was in good hands. Would definitely book with her again!”

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!”
“Kind and professional, very easy to work with and quick to respond. I needed somewhere for my girl to go where she could be around other dogs while I was swamped for the day, within 1 hour I had a daycare appointment set up with Brad. He sent me pictures of her smiling and cuddling while she was there. Will definitely be going back.”
“Brenda and her girls are dog whispers. They collected our dog, who has bad separation anxiety and he instantly warmed to them, which never happens! They shared lots of photos of him too! When they dropped him off, he was in a happy playful mood, so we knew he had a great time!”

Our furry friend was so excited to see her when she returned for another walk! I can't say enough good things!”
“I am so happy we found Jennifer to walk our dog. She's a very caring and responsible person. She asked great questions when we met for introductions.

About: Animal loving CNA, here to care for your furry loved one. 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 needing 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.
“Erin was very kind, thorough, and communicative. She took the best care of our dog for a planned visit, and also a very last minute request when we had delays coming home. I don’t know what I would have done without her. I highly recommend Erin, and would definitely hire her again!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of dogs. I've had the privilege of caring for my 10-year-old dog, Splash, which has taught me the importance of patience, trust, and routine.

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. However, I have a handy mom van with me to take to any pre-approved parks or any other destinations that you and I would discuss!

Whether it’s dog sitting, doggy day care, boarding, drop-in visits, or walks, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with cats and fostered over 10 through the Underdog Pet Rescue of Wisconsin during college, helping them heal, build confidence, and find their forever homes (one of those special fosters even joined my parents’ family!).

About: My pet-sitting experiences include looking after both cats and dogs day to day and for extended periods of time. When taking care of cats, I make sure they have clean water and food at all times; keep their environment clean; watch over them and see if they are healthy; and interact with them by playing with them on a daily basis. I also have experience caring for dogs of various sizes and energy levels. Making sure their fed, walked, groomed, and cleaning up any messes/ their environment. In addition always making sure they have access to clean drinking water and providing plenty of playtime and attention. I occasionally take care of a family friend’s dog who has arthritis. I help keep her comfortable through gentle massages, giving her medication as directed, and hand-feeding her when necessary. In doing so, I learned to be patient and attentive in caring for an animal's individual needs. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. I always go the extra mile into taking good care of animals, ensuring their safety, and comfort in the absence of their owners. I treat every pet as if they were my own and doing everything I can to ensure their happiness. I am extremely flexible with regards to my schedule, and can be available for the most part of the day. I wake up early, so feeding and taking the animals for walk won't be a problem at all. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I value their safety, trust, and maintaining a calm and familiar environment for their pet. It is important for me to carefully follow all the instructions concerning their feeding schedule, treatment, taking medication, and other specific care. It goes without saying that I make sure that the pets receive proper meals and have clean water to drink. I also try to keep the house as clean as possible, including litter boxes for cats and any messes that may occur. I also observe the pets to ensure everything seems normal and they’re healthy. I believe that building trust with both pets and owners is essential, I’ll always provide them with updates and photographs about the current condition of the pets. My goal is to make sure their pet is cared for and mostly importantly happy.

I am also free to stay occasional overnights if needed. Since my cats' security is my priority, I will not be able to host your pets in my home. However, I would love to spend time with them in their own space and can keep them company for evenings, weekends, and overnights.
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.

“Marie was so amazing with our sweet pup. We were sad to leave her on Christmas Eve, but could not have found a better sitter than Marie and her family. She was well loved and even got to have some new experiences! We will definitely use Marie again 🐾🥰”
“Heather and her family welcomed Darcy back to their home with open arms. She sent photos of Darcy throughout her stay so we could see how she was doing. She looked so happy and comfortable in their home. This was her second stay and we’ve already booked another. We are so grateful to have found this home away from home for Darcy!”
“Kristin and Bruce did a great job with my older dog, Madigan. She is sometimes anere xious to be away from home, but she was at ease from the minute we walked in the door. This is the first time in the last six years we did not have someone come in to the home. The pictures showed a relaxed, happy dog and her tail and ears were high when I arrived to pick her up. Dogs know people and she is loyal to "her pack", but our dog loved being a part of Kristin and Bruce's pack. I highly recommend Kristin and Bruce. You will not be disappointed!”
“This is our second time booking with Christine, and she is a great sitter. You can tell that she truly cares about the health and happiness of all of the animals in her home. We are very grateful that she was able to accommodate a last minute request, and she sent so many cute pictures! We will definitely send Georgie to her again.”
“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!”
“Fabulous! Mack gave her 4 paws up and he would have given her more but he only has 4 paws. He has been online trying one to buy me more airline trips so he can go back to Steph and live the good life. Can’t praise her enough. Deb Spencley”

“Robert is a great sitter. Would highly recommend. We’ll always check to see if he’s free first. Watson came home happy, tired, and well cared for.”
“My boy had the BEST time with Manjusha & Midhun! They went above and beyond caring for him - several photo/video updates, walks, treats, and cuddles. They made sure he was comfortable, loved, and spoiled as much as possible during his stay and I truly couldn’t have asked for better care. Zero complaints and highly, highly recommend! ❤️🥰”
“Our dog Blu was so happy at their home-he loved playing with his new friends and received excellent care. Each and every member of their family took such good care of him and kept us updated daily how he was doing. It really reassured us and helped us enjoy our trip. Thank you so much!”
“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 :)”
“Rona took excellent care of Basie and Mimi while we were away! She sent us regularly updates of the doggies sleeping, eating, and playing and she made sure that they wore their sweaters when they went outside in the chilly weather. Definitely would book again, she's amazing!”
“Brad was really great with communication and flexible. Cass seemed to have fit in well with his pack and made herself right at home in his place. I would definitely let Brad watch my doggo again :)”
“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.”
“Our three dogs had a great night with Allison! She was easy to work with and laid back. Dogs got to chill on the couch, luxury access to special beds and blankets. Thanks for a great stay!”
“Lindsay was quick to respond to all my messages and made it easy to arrange drop off and pick up. She sent a number of photos of my dog and took her for a number of long walks, just what the dog needs to balance her abundance energy. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Nicole did a great job taking care of our dog, Kevin, and keeping us updated on his stay along with plenty of photos each day. Her and her family seemed to give Kevin lots of exercise and attention. Highly recommend!”
