Personalized care for your dog or cat - Sullivan
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sullivan
“Great communication from initial contact until pick up. Appreciated the daily updates and pictures. Biscuit had a great "staycation" over the weekend. We will use Anna for our dog sitting needs again.”
“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!!”
“Heather was an excellent puppy-sitter! She really took good care of our Corgi while we were out of town. I was very thankful for her great communication and picture updates.”
“Again, Jenifer did a wonderful job taking care of our cavapoo Toby so we could go on our Alaskan cruise. It makes it so much easier to travel knowing he is taken so well care of!!!! Thank you so much Jenifer. We really appreciate you!!!”
“Joanne was absolutely wonderful with our dog, she was very responsive to our request, accommodating to our time windows, and kept in communication with us the entire time we were gone. She was so loving and welcoming to our dog that he didn’t even want to come home! Highly recommended!”
“Ruby is awesome! She is great with communication and kept us updated with pictures and videos. She loves animals and Lucy our Sheepdog had a great stay. Thank you so much! A+”
“Sarah did a great job with our highly anxious dog. I know she was really stressed being away from our family, so we appreciate all Sarah did. She worked with us when we had to adjust who picked our dog up and we had no issues.”
“They were great! Mikeale was very communicative & quick with responses, sent daily updates with pictures, and accommodated my short-notice stay. Ruby was very tired when she got home <3.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and taken care of dogs since I was a very young girl. Starting at the age of 9, I used to watch my neighbors dogs when they’d go out of town. Now, I often dog sit and board my coworkers dogs when needed. My deep love for dogs has driven me to always find a way to care and connect with them. I am free for the summertime to give your pets plenty of love and care all day! With enough notice, I can prepare to board your pets in whatever way you need. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly dogs to give your dog plenty of space and friends to play with. There are plenty of toys and beds that my dogs don’t use and I also have 2 open crates if your dog needs as well.
“Ellen was wonderful. Not only did she take Winnie on short notice, she made us feel so comfortable leaving Winnie behind. She was a master at easing Winnie in and making her feel at home. She sent us regular updates with photos and video so we could share her experience. Thank you Ellen! Winnie will definitely be back!”
“Our old man has such a great time here! This was his second stay and he was pooped when he came home from all the fun he had. Maria and Nayibe treated him like a family member and kept us up to date on how he was doing the whole time. Definitely recommend and will definitely be back. ☺️”
“Madison and Jeff were very easy to communicate with and kept us advised of all of Roscoe’s activities with texts and pictures . Their boys were very good playmates and kept Roscoe very busy. At night the boys setup “camp” in the living room and slept with Roscoe. Awesome Family!”
“Alex took such great care of Banksy. She was able to accommodate a bit of a last minute booking after our other arrangements fell through. If we lived near Oconomowoc, Alex would be a repeat sitter for Banksy! He had a blast, and we received photos and updates throughout his stay!”
“Brooke was amazing! Super loving and kind to our pups. We booked her last minute and she was able to accommodate with open arms. She sent photos of her and her boyfriend playing with them and cuddling them. I highly recommend Brooke! She’s a gem ❤️”

“Cindy Is the ideal cat sitter. I wanted to not have to worry about Baby Bear having a clean litter box and eating his wet and dry food. Cindy was there for him and he’s happy! That’s what a great pet sitter does.”
“Ramsey was AMAZING!! Truly amazing!! From the moment I met Ramsey, I knew she was the one! Unfortunately, her schedule did not align with my initial needs, thus I begrudgingly selected another sitter for this trip. When that sitter refused to show up at my home without additional money (as I was already flying to my international destination), and was caught being dishonest on multiple issues, I was left with no sitter for my 7 day trip. I immediately reached out to Ramsey and she didn’t hesitate to come to my rescue!! When I explained my predicament, Ramsey jumped right in and we worked out the details, accommodating both our needs. Ramsey was very communicative, send photos and videos, and raised an issue of some congestion to watch. She fed and watered Mina, cleaned her litter box, administered transdermal medication, and played with her. She kept her engaged, introducing her to a bird channel on YouTube as well. Ramsey also cleaned up some vomit from the carpet and dealt with an unfortunate toilet situation from another fill-in caregiver. But, the pièce de résistance was that she made her way to the house during the blizzard to be sure Mina had enough food and received her medication even though I told her that her personal safety was more important. Really, I can’t say enough about Ramsey. She truly goes above and beyond!”
“Alysha did such a nice job with watching our cats. The were fed, litter boxes cleaned and got some play time with her. Leading up to it she was very prompt in answering questions. We will happily have her come again to watch our cats!! Thanks Alysha!!”

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance with your fur babies! ❤️ Pet care fits into my routine because I only work Tuesday Wednesdays. I don’t mind dropping in to say Hi to pets, let them out, or take them for a walk. I care for your pet as if they were my own💕 pets are part of our family!!!!! I have 2 dogs of my own which mean the world to us!
“Tori provided drop-in care for our two cats over a period of three days while we traveled. The cats were well taken care of and she provided photo updates. Tori is reliable and friendly and the cats have a new bestie in their circle of friends!”
“Katelyn did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 fur babies and our home. She sent pics and videos to us on a daily basis and asked questions when she needed to. I would highly recommend her”
About: Growing up I always had animals (dogs, hamsters, a guinea pig, a turtle, a cat, sugar gliders) and can’t imagine my life without animals. I adopted my pup right out of college, I know that sometimes it takes a village raising & caring for pets! I love dogs of all breeds, shapes & sizes ❤️ I have dog &cat sat for family members & love doing so! I’m happiest around animals. I’ve walked, played, fed, bathed, and have given medicine to dogs and am comfortable doing so. I promise to send cute pics of them too! I work very part time in the summers which gives me plenty of availability to stop by and love, play with, and/or walk your pet!! I will ensure your pet has food/water, is left where you’d want them (in a certain room, crate, etc), and any other specifics you need or want before I leave! Growing up around animals and having 2 rescues myself I understand that some animals need extra time to warm up &/or certain things (covered crate, routine, medicine, etc.) to help them feel safe and comfortable. I will work with you and try my best to ensure that your pet has whatever he/she needs to feel safe and comfortable!
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. As a special education teacher, I spend my days building trust, creating routines, and providing individualized support—skills that translate naturally to pet care. I have experience with both dogs and cats, from energetic young pets to seniors who need a gentler approach. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while providing owners with peace of mind through dependable care and updates. 🐾💕
“We had such a great experience with Aubrey! Before we ever left, she took the time to come over and meet our cats, which meant so much to us. She asked thoughtful questions, paid attention to their personalities, and made sure she understood their routines and preferences. It immediately put us at ease knowing she cared enough to build that connection ahead of time. Our cats were comfortable and well cared for, and it was clear they recognized her when she came back. We truly appreciated the extra effort and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate cat sitter.”
“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: You’re off to enjoy your vacation, let your pet enjoy one of their own while you’re away! We are Alexis & Jess! Jess is a professional groomer with nearly 10 years experience grooming dogs of all shapes and sizes. Interested in getting your dog a spa day while they're here? She does in home grooming and does an excellent job! References available upon request. Alexis is an exhibitor and breeder of AKC American Akitas with 8 years of experience raising and showing dogs across the southeast. Both Alexis & Jess have training experience under their belts and have worked in dog rescue, shaping behavior and temperaments of dogs of many breeds and sizes. In our home, your dog will be treated as one of our own. We live on a quiet 1. 8 acre property with an acre of that securely fenced with a 6 foot privacy fence. We do have resident dogs, but they will not have access to nor come in contact with your pet staying with us! Given the breeds we own and our background in rescue and rehab, we are not strangers to powerhouse breeds, tougher temperaments or special needs dogs who need some time to adjust to new people or surroundings. Given our opposite work schedules, one of us is home almost all the time, so your dog will be in our company for most of his/her stay. Dogs are our world. We know how important they are in the lives of those who have them. Speaking from experience, we understand how nerve wracking and difficult it can be trusting someone enough to leave your dogs with them. It's something we struggled with for a long time, finding the right person to care for our own dogs in our absence.. we were fortunate enough to find a rockstar - so we hope that we can be that person for someone else!
“Sadie did a great job! It was our first pet sitting venture, and my first time with Rover, which is always a bit nerve-wracking with our fur babies. But I was very pleased, and she tolerated, understood and followed my detailed instructions well. Thanks, Sadie and Rover! I'll definitely have you back!”
“Deedee did such a wonderful job watching our cat! She was awesome and reliable, coming to our home to spend some time with our cat Winnie while we were away. We will definitely be booking Deedee again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sullivan
About: I love animals and would love to give you the peace of mind while you are gone. My husband and I understand the importance of finding the right Rover sitter. We both grew up with large breed dogs but I have also had toy breeds. I currently am a stay at home mom and will rarely need to be gone from home for very long. Your pet is my priority while they are in my care and I look forward to spending time with them. The way that I would care for your pets is how I would my pets. They could possibly get better treatment than mine at home… but don’t tell my dog that!
“We had a last minute booking that they were able to accommodate. Great communication before and during stay. We loved getting pics and video, too! Boone well loved and comfortable during his stay. Came home a very happy guy.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our little sweet pup. He had a walk, breaks, fun with his ball. Heather was extremely accommodating and flexible. Once you meet her, she outs you at immediate ease. Will happily use her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I love to walk and play with them and also have snuggle time if they like that. My schedule is flexible to accommodate their needs! I have not done injections but am willing to do if trained I’m retired so I have plenty of time to care for your pet in my home or come to your home for check-ins and walks. I have a fenced yard and am close to a local state park for long walks. I also live in a very walkable subdivision. I don’t mind a well behaved pet on furniture.
“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!”
“Molly takes the best care of my pup! She provides updates and gives him so much attention, he always comes home exhausted! She is excellent and I highly recommend for anyone needing boarding or daycare!”
“Just like everyone else, Teddy and I love her! Great home away from home for your fur baby. ? We’ll be coming back over and over again. I’m pretty sure he would’ve been happy to move right in with her permanently ❤️”
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.
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!
“I’m really happy with Ruby…she definitely loves animals and takes very good care of them…I know our puppy (also named Ruby) had a lot of fun cause she’s tired today,i will definitely be using her again and probably often”
About: I have cared for animals my entire life and truly believe they are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with many different types of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, amphibians, and more. Animals are my passion, and caring for them genuinely brings me joy. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, feeding, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I would give my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for by someone who is experienced, attentive, and truly loves animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize making sure animals receive attentive and reliable care. I am currently available during the day, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekdays, I do drop off and pick up my two children from school (ages 8 and 10), but outside of those short times my schedule is very open. This allows me to provide consistent care, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Because I structure my day around the animals I’m caring for, you can feel confident that your pet will receive dependable attention and thoughtful care while you’re away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment. My home sits on nearly one acre with an unfenced yard, which allows for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Dogs can enjoy time outside on leash, and off-leash play can be discussed depending on the dog’s training and owner preferences. Inside my home, my own pets have separate spaces, which allows visiting animals to be safely and comfortably separated if needed. This helps ensure a calm and secure environment for everyone. I am also happy to care for pets in their own homes. I am very respectful of clients’ homes and always follow instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal routine. Whether in my home or yours, I provide attentive care including feeding, playtime, companionship, exercise, and administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away.
About: Hello! My family and I love animals. We've been on Rover since January 2024! We currently have 2 indor cats and have backyard chickens (in coop) that are pets and lay eggs for us. We live in a quiet Hartland neighborhood in a cul-de-sac that is very low traffic. Part of our yard is fenced for play and potty breaks, and I love taking walks around our neighborhood. The majority of the week, my husband is working from home or I am home. The longest your pet may be left is 6 hours if staying with us during the work week. So usually someone is there to spend time with your pet! We are available any day of the week for boarding. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac. I always practice sit-stay when opening the door to prevent bolting out. Part of our yard is fenced and outside the fence your pet will always be leashed. If I am away for a short period and it's needed for safety or per your preference, we do have a large crate and an enclosed pet gate.
About: I, being a full time dog mom and a home maker can take care of your dog dedicatedly. I firmly believe that our pet is our baby. I can provide utmost care and affection to your dog and cat. Since I know the importance of leash walking, I can walk your dog twice a day and can provide consistent pee breaks. Your dog will feel at home while he is with me. They are allowed on couch and bed. The treats will be offered periodically for your fur baby. I am looking for some furry friends. I recently lost my fur baby Buddy in May 2026 but his memories made us get a new fur baby Kisna who is a 4.5lbs Pomchon and very social. Kisna is great with people including children of all ages and small sized puppies and dogs. If your pup is ok with small sized pup, please consider me for your boarding and petsitting needs. I am currently in between the jobs, hence have a lot of time to cuddle the fur babies and make them feel special. Please check my calendar for availability. I only offer petsitting and petboarding through my home. Not available for petsitting at owners' home. I would prefer a meet and greet before accepting to provide care for your pet because they can sense people's energy better than humans. I have been taking care of my furbaby since 11 years. Love everything about dogs but comfortable to handle small and medium sized dogs.

About: We recently moved back to our roots to a spot right off South St. In Oconomowoc. We had our dog sitting business in San Diego, CA and will miss our furry friends so much! My husband and I both love animals very much and have the perfect set-up to host. We enjoy morning and evening cuddles and allow dogs on the couch and bed :) We will take care of your pup just the same as we care for our own. We have a 4 year old mutt that we adopted 3 years ago who has brought so much joy to our life! She loves to play and enjoys the dog park/hanging around other dogs as much as she can. She loves walks around the lake as I am sure your pup will too! We both have experience taking care of other dogs and have dog sit for many of our friends and family members for extended periods of time when they are out of town. We can provide pictures as little or as often as you would like. Excited to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work 4 days of the week and have every Thursday off. My husband works remotely from home so he is able to tend to your pups needs all day. This schedule works great for our pups that need frequent potty breaks and attention. We have long leashes attached to our back deck so the dogs can enjoy the sun and being outdoors as much or as little as they would like without having to worry about them wandering off! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as needed.

About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m a special education teacher who has summers off, and I’m looking for a fun way to spend my time out in the community doing something I love—caring for animals! As a lifelong animal lover and dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I also love cats and am comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities.

Feel free to reach out with any questions—I can’t wait to meet your pets! 🐶🐱💕 During July, I teach summer school, so I’m available anytime after 12 PM for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. In August, my schedule becomes much more flexible, allowing for additional daytime availability. Once the school year begins, I’ll primarily be available on weekends and for evening/late-night care. As a teacher and animal lover, I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I treat every pet as if they were my own! In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I know consistency is important for pets, so I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. In my home, pets receive a safe, clean, and loving environment. I have experience with both dogs and cats and understand that every animal has different needs and personalities.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 5, my sister is a vet and I always have access to ask her any questions if something were to ever happen, I hope to own my own hobby farm one day! I recently accepted a new nail technician position in Richfield, and my current work hours will be Monday 11 to 6, Friday 11 to 6 and Saturday 9 to 4 starting July 6th over time I will be adding in more days. Any questions please ask! For my own pets I have a fenced in yard for them, I wash there faces and paws everyday, I feed them and bath them. I follow any instructions given to me by a clients, weather its about dietary restrictions, exercise requirements, meds etc
About: While I’m new to formal pet sitting, I’ve spent almost 15 years caring for a wide range of animals — from my own pets and livestock to friends' livestock. I grew up around animals and have hands-on experience with my own dogs and cats as well as various farm animals. Whether it’s feeding schedules, administering basic care, or simply giving animals the attention and enrichment they deserve, I treat every animal like one of my own. I’m dependable, calm under pressure, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. If you're looking for someone who understands animal behavior, respects routines, and will treat your pets with care and compassion — I’d love to help. I ensure my goats get fed and have clean water daily. They get weekly enrichment. I also ensure my dog and cat have food and clean water multiple times a day and I provide frequent enrichment for them all day. Pets deserve the same hazard free, clean homes that humans do. I keep my house clean and provide clean food and water to my pets, and would do the same for yours.
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've lived with animals my entire life. Growing up, we had five dogs, four cats, bunnies and guinea pigs, snakes and lizards, fish, and chickens. Currently, while living at home in the summers, we have snakes, lizards, spiders, a cat, and three dogs, one of which is mine. My dog Winston is a service dog in training that my mom and I are owner-training. While I'm in no way a professional trainer, I can help with teaching or maintaining the basics with any dog. I'm currently home for the summer from school and waiting on an application for a part-time job. I am free most of the day right now, as I haven't started working yet. So, I can come over and take care of any pet's needs most any time. I can take care of your animals' needs any time, whether it's taking them on a walk, letting them outside, feeding, cleaning up, or playing with them. My dogs at home are crate trained, so if your dog also stays in a crate at certain points of the day or night, I can easily crate them.
“I had to change the date last minute and Tara was extremely understanding and responded to the new date within minutes. She’s arrived early to meet Jax and stayed later to play with him. I appreciated the extra time she spent with him and he didn’t want her to leave”
About: I have always loved animals. I always say my first job was when I was 4 helping in my grandmother's vet clinic. I got to help cuddle all of the dogs and assist in all the fun a vet clinic has to offer. It was love at first site. I now have three rescue dogs of my own that are spoiled and loved. I have lots of farm experience and worked at Skydance Doggy Day Care for a time. I am a stay at home mom but my little one will be at preschool Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. From 9-2. So I have some free time to help you and your fur babies out!! I can come to your house to walk your fur baby and give them all the pets they could need. I am willing to do anything else your dog/pet requires during the day :)
About: I had my first family dog since I was about 10 years old! Recently, I got my own dog who is about 45 pounds larger than what I was used to. That being said, I am still in the works of training my current dog different skills ( and unfortunately may be in this stage indefinitely) and I would be happy to bring these skills into your household when Im with your pets as well. I also have my fair share of watching pets for family and friends and would love to keep growing the number of four legged friends I have! I have quite a sporadic schedule that changes every few weeks with my current work. With that being said, it may often change when I am available and when I am not. I would love to stay in contact about future needs of care in order to determine if my schedule will allow me to help! Pets are truly a mans best friend! I think all animals deserve a chance, even those with an unknown past! With that, I like to spend quality time with animals and make sure they're comfortable with me so we can build a relationship where they trust me. I'd be happy to stop in to watch your pets once in awhile, take them for walks, or care for them for more extended periods!
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!
About: I have raised and cared for many animals throughout my lifetime ranging from dogs, cats, kittens, cows, raccoons, guinea pigs, bunnies, and fish! There is no animal too big, small, or sassy for me! I love them all! I have experience with bottle fed, new born animals, pets with different feeding patterns in the same house, delivering medicine to pets (including via syringe), outdoor supervision, and caring for temperamental animals. My own dogs are a pitbull and Doberman respectively, so I know firsthand that a breed or size does not define an animal! I am here to provide exceptional care to your fur babies regardless of shape, size, age, or attitude! I work various part-time jobs around the Mount Horeb/Middleton area, but would almost always be available for morning, afternoon, and evening care! If planned a few days in advance, I can accommodate most needs! I believe in following instructions carefully, especially when it comes to animals. While I strive to create a relationship with the animals I care for, my main priority is to listen to the advice and instructions of the pet parents to ensure I am prepared and aware of their pet’s unique characteristics and needs. Nobody knows an animal like their owner, and I am dedicated to doing as told when it comes to animals—especially considering the trust the owners have in me!
About: I have cared for animals my entire life and truly believe they are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with many different types of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, amphibians, and more. Animals are my passion, and caring for them genuinely brings me joy. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, feeding, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I would give my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for by someone who is experienced, attentive, and truly loves animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize making sure animals receive attentive and reliable care. I am currently available during the day, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekdays, I do drop off and pick up my two children from school (ages 8 and 10), but outside of those short times my schedule is very open. This allows me to provide consistent care, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Because I structure my day around the animals I’m caring for, you can feel confident that your pet will receive dependable attention and thoughtful care while you’re away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment. My home sits on nearly one acre with an unfenced yard, which allows for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Dogs can enjoy time outside on leash, and off-leash play can be discussed depending on the dog’s training and owner preferences. Inside my home, my own pets have separate spaces, which allows visiting animals to be safely and comfortably separated if needed. This helps ensure a calm and secure environment for everyone. I am also happy to care for pets in their own homes. I am very respectful of clients’ homes and always follow instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal routine. Whether in my home or yours, I provide attentive care including feeding, playtime, companionship, exercise, and administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away.

“They were great! Mikeale was very communicative & quick with responses, sent daily updates with pictures, and accommodated my short-notice stay. Ruby was very tired when she got home <3.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and taken care of dogs since I was a very young girl. Starting at the age of 9, I used to watch my neighbors dogs when they’d go out of town. Now, I often dog sit and board my coworkers dogs when needed. My deep love for dogs has driven me to always find a way to care and connect with them. I am free for the summertime to give your pets plenty of love and care all day! With enough notice, I can prepare to board your pets in whatever way you need. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly dogs to give your dog plenty of space and friends to play with. There are plenty of toys and beds that my dogs don’t use and I also have 2 open crates if your dog needs as well.
“Ellen was wonderful. Not only did she take Winnie on short notice, she made us feel so comfortable leaving Winnie behind. She was a master at easing Winnie in and making her feel at home. She sent us regular updates with photos and video so we could share her experience. Thank you Ellen! Winnie will definitely be back!”
“Madison and Jeff were very easy to communicate with and kept us advised of all of Roscoe’s activities with texts and pictures . Their boys were very good playmates and kept Roscoe very busy. At night the boys setup “camp” in the living room and slept with Roscoe. Awesome Family!”
“Alex took such great care of Banksy. She was able to accommodate a bit of a last minute booking after our other arrangements fell through. If we lived near Oconomowoc, Alex would be a repeat sitter for Banksy! He had a blast, and we received photos and updates throughout his stay!”
“Brooke was amazing! Super loving and kind to our pups. We booked her last minute and she was able to accommodate with open arms. She sent photos of her and her boyfriend playing with them and cuddling them. I highly recommend Brooke! She’s a gem ❤️”
“Rebecca offered a last minute vacation for our older dog Una, who couldn't handle our cabin weekend with another dog, and she had a blast with her! Rebecca was thoughtful, caring, and had such an amazing set-up for Una, complete with all-day outdoor hangs and a little cool pool for the hot weather! I am so appreciative to her and would absolutely reach out again if we were in the area. Una had a great time!”
“Marie took wonderful care of our dog for over 7 days. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures; it was apparent that our dog got a lot of special attention and love! It allowed us to enjoy our vacation and not worry about how he was doing. Thanks so much, Marie! We would love to book with you again in the future!”
“Josh and Cheryl were absolutely incredible with our dog, Tuck. He’s a high-energy, challenging pup who needs a lot of stimulation, and they went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for, engaged, and happy. They were attentive, active, and cared for him like their own. When his collar broke, they even bought him a new one without hesitation—such a thoughtful gesture that speaks to how much they truly care. We also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t recommend them more highly—if we could give more than 5 stars, we would!”
“Lauren is so amazing! Winter has very bad separation anxiety and we are always nervous everytime we leave him. It’s our first time to leave winter with Lauren but she did a very good job! She is very professional, updates us about Winter and most of all she is very passionate about taking care of dogs especiallys with dogs with separation anxiety and that made Winter feel very comfortable and enjoyed his stay with her. Winter had a lot of walks with her and he even made his way into the couch to sit with her. Plus he ate his food and treats and allowed Lauren to wipe his paws after walks. This is very unusual with Winter because he doesnt trust easily especially with someone whom he just met. But this made us think he was so comfortable with Lauren and he was happy with her. We are also happy knowing that Winter was well taken care of and we had a stress free short out of town trip. Thank you Lauren and Noah. We are so grateful for your help ❤️🙏🏻 highly recommended!”
