“Our dog Gatsby has stayed with Edith on multiple occasions and always has a wonderful time! We love all of the updates that Edith sends and we know that he is getting the best of care while we are away. Even when our dog has less than stellar behavior Edith takes it all in stride and keeps us updated. Thank you Edith!”

“Finny had a blast! I got updates every day and I could see how happy and content he was while I was on vacation. I was very comfortable knowing he was safe and having a great time, and when he got home he was good and tired. Thank you so much! I would be super happy to bring him back and would highly recommend.”

“Ronalisa is very kind. She has a really nice yard for Spunky and Boss to run around. Very responsive. My dogs enjoyed their staycation with her and her fur babies. Spunky and Boss came home tired and happy. Recommend her 10/10.”

“Jenna was wonderful taking care of our dog. She was attentive, friendly and happy to have our dog stay with her and her family. She sent us regular updates and photos during the stay. We would highly recommend Jenna and would book with her again.”


“Jesse was great! He provided boarding for our dog. He responded quickly to my request for booking, we met the next morning at a dog park so my dog could get to know his dog, and he was very flexible with scheduling drop off and pick up. He sent us a bunch of pictures and videos of our dog while we were away. I would certainly recommend Jesse if you're looking for help taking care of your dog.”
“Emily and her family gave our 4-month old puppy all the love and attention one can hope for when leaving a furry friend for the day. He got to play in a fenced yard with other dogs and came home nice and tired. We’ll definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Thank you Camp Cleda for pet sitting Pumba and Snooki. Snooki came home happy to see me (unlike her last sitter experience). Thank you for the pic updates & for being so responsive. We appreciate your patience with our anxious & sassy senior dogs too, and look forward to boarding with you 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”

“My boy stayed with Duane and Lauren and had a great time. They are so kind and communicative with pupdates throughout their stay. I have already recommended them to friends and will definitely use them again!”

“Nala’s usually quite shy especially with initial meetings but she was immediately fairly comfortable and seemed so relaxed when we came to pick her up. Ben is very thorough with verifying care information and he gives frequent updates. Great communication and great care. We will definitely be requesting their services again!”
“Our quirky rescue pup was so well taken care of while we were away! In every update we got it was clear that our dog was feeling more and more comfortable and was left in good hands. We will definitely book again!”

“Stephanie was great! She was easy to work with, took fantastic care of our pup. Our girl wasn't sure she wanted to leave. She sent lots of pictures and provided a fun and active environment. Would highly recommend!”

“Helen & Min are absolutely wonderful sitters they welcome our little girl Moxie into there home as if she is a member of her family. Your pets will first class treatment when staying with Helen and Min.”


“Very smooth stay. Excellent communication, flexibility in start and end times. Lovely companion dog. Delphie, as a special friend for our dog. Kristina also is wonderful - enthusiastic and friendly, communicated promptly when she had a question. Highly recommend.”

“This was the 2nd time Katie and Samuel’s family took care of Jarvis while we were away. We were very excited when they were available for these dates because Jarvis had a great time with them the first time. They did such an amazing job with him again and it really seemed like Jarvis felt right a home. They always send frequent updates and pictures which is really appreciated :)”

“I needy a dog sitter short notice and Toni was able to watch my dog Winston. Toni took him on a couple walks and Winston seem very happy when I picked him up. Would use again.”

“Thanks so much for always taking such great care of Ollie! I truly appreciate knowing he's in good hands, happy and snuggled while I'm away. ❤️”

“Our two dogs had a great stay with Michele and her family, and we couldn't be happier with their care! We've had a long-term house and dog sitter who recently relocated away from town, so our dogs had never had the experience of staying away from home without us before. We were a little concerned about how that would go, but right from the start we were reassured by Michelle's friendliness, her evident dog smarts, and her long experience with (sometimes challenging) pups. Before and throughout the boarding process, communication was just right -- clear and relevant, frequent enough to be reassuring but not at all excessive. When we returned home and picked up the dogs, they were in great shape: happy, relaxed, and clearly in no rush to leave Michelle and her family behind :) We'll definitely hope to have them stay again in the future.”

“Lindsey was great with my dog! She made sure to update us with photos and activities throughout the days. Thank you Lindsey for showering my fur baby with love and lots of walks!💕”

“Anna is great to work with! She always shares prompt updates and photos and is very accommodating. Our cats seem so comfortable around her and that always puts us at ease. We’re grateful for Anna!”


“Heather is so amazing and wonderful with our kitties. She seriously goes above and beyond every time she watches them and they truly love her also, My shy Mochi never comes out for strangers but when Heather stops by she is all about getting some love from her. When we are out of town I feel so at ease knowing that Heather is taking great care of them.”


“Sarah as always took great care of our cat! She is very communicative and always sends photos. We are always very happy when traveling to know our girl is in good hands!”


“Taylor was fantastic. We have a diabetic cat that requires prompt insulin and feeding every 12 hours, on the dot. Taylor was reliable, communicative, and on time (down to the minute) for the entirety of our 10-day vacation. When we arrived home, I could tell our cat was really well taken care of, brushed, and loved! I can’t recommend Taylor highly enough.”

“Taryn did a great job with George while we were away. We appreciated knowing he was in good hands and enjoyed the updates and photos she sent us. She was a great communicator, arrived when she said she would, and took care of George like he was her own. We will definitely have Taryn back to look after him again.”


“Shatoria was so great with my cats. She is very responsive and a great listener. I had a lot of changes in care instructions, and she handled everything patiently and without any issues. She kept me updated, followed all the details carefully, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my cats were well cared for and comfortable with her. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.”

“Leah was great! She was very accommodating when something came up and I had to modify scheduled drop in visits. She took great care of my cat and provided cute photos every day - definitely recommend!”


“We absolutely love Stina! She takes amazing care of our boys and treats them like her own. It gives us such peace of mind, especially when working overnight shifts, knowing they’re in such good hands. Reliable, kind, and genuinely caring—she makes everything so much easier for us. Highly recommend!”

“Lindsey did a fantastic job watching our 2 kitties! She took great care of them, brought in packages, and cleaned up a mess one of our cats made. We appreciated her daily visits over the holidays, while we traveled to visit family! We highly recommend Lindsey and will definitely use her services again!”


“Absolutely fantastic experience with Mandi and delighted she was able to take our booking. Mandi came for a meet-and-greet in advance of the booking to review details and get acquainted with our home, our cat, and his care. He was much more relaxed and comfortable when we returned than when we've picked him up from boarding in the past; at his advanced age, that means so much! We're looking forward to our next booking with Mandi!”

“Elizabeth was so great and accommodating!! Prompt communication and did a fabulous job with my cat. She provided a peace of mind while I was away.”


“Megan does such a fantastic job and it is very clear that she cares about my boy! I love all the pictures and daily updates - I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of someone to look after their feline friend!”

“Ben provided excellent care for our dog and cat while we were on vacation for a week! He did 3 drop-in visits a day, arrived on time, and provided pics and videos. THEN, when our flight was delayed and we were stuck for two additional days, he covered those visits as well, which was amazing as we were already under a ton of stress due to the delay. We will definitely book Ben again and highly recommend.”

“Edith is your dream sitter. She posts daily photos and updates of your pet. She obviously loves what she does. She is a lovely soul and my Mimi, who can be shy, had her tail up in the photos which made me feel reassured that she was in a safe, loving environment.”

“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”

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: Hi! My name is Rona. I grew up on a farm in the Philippines. As a child, my parents always had dogs and cats at home. I’ve experienced taking care of many different types of animals. It was quite challenging but it’s fun! When I came here, we adopted Maggie and Lyka when they were still puppies. Maggie is a 6 year old Pug and Lyka is a 2 year old Boston Terrier. I love them so much! They are both lovable and friendly. Our neighbors and friends have relied on me to groom, walk, feed and bathe their dogs while they were away. My house sits in a shady private area and is surrounded by parks and trails so there will be a lot of running around and play time when your dog is cared for by me. I can do oral medication administration, I have had a senior dog experience and can provide daily exercise for your pups. My schedule is flexible so I can usually take on new dogs at a moment’s notice. I will update you regularly with pictures and videos to give you peace of mind during your time apart. I am working from home so most of my time will be caring for your fur baby. Daycare drop-off no earlier than 6:00 am and pick-up hours anytime in the afternoon. We have a large fenced backyard and our two dogs, Maggie (Pug) and Lyka (Boston Terrier) are very good with all dogs. They love to play and will keep your fur baby company during their stay. The dogs are in and out all day using 9 steps. We have security cameras and limited access to our property.
About: I have grown up with dogs and have always had one. I know the dedication and time it takes to give dogs the care and attention they need. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets’ care while they were on trips and I have always found it enjoyable and rewarding. I am currently in grad school and so have flexibility for walks and drop ins! If your pup is comfortable with other dogs, I am happy to welcome them here. We have an extra bed and plenty of toys to share! I have evenings and weekends free, so I am available to play and walk after 4:30pm and on weekends! I have the availability to stop home during my day to let pups out for potty and a play break! I have a pup of my own so your dog will always have company. If necessary, I have a crate that your dog can use to keep them safe. I also have plenty of toys to share :)
“Emma was super sweet and I could immediately see that she was a dog person. She took great care of our dog and we felt assured that he would be safe and well taken care of. Highly recommend for the Madison area!”

“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!”

“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”

“Martha is so great, she accommodated us last minute which was so helpful! She sent update pictures which I really appreciate! Uma was in great care and had fun with her boys. They took her for walks and played with her. I’d recommend Martha and her family :)”

I’m always happy to answer any questions and help you feel confident that your pet is in caring, reliable hands!
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your fur babies. I currently have my sweet girl Nova at home and am comfortable with pets of different temperaments and needs. I strive to create a safe, stress free experience while keeping owners updated with lots of photos and messages. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a consistent routine, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care.

I have 1 cat in my home currently that is okay with dogs that visit. I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment and carefully supervise interactions at all times.
“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”

“This was the second time working with Brenda. She did a great job again. I received updates and pictures with every walk/ visit and medication was administered according to instruction.”

“Our Great Dane loves Ben. He has had great communication with us during all of his walks and has made sure that Bruno has “done his business” in the mornings. He is our favorite walker”
About: I am a huge dog lover. I love all kinds of dogs and have grown up with all different kinds of dogs of varying size and temperment. My family has had 2 havanese dogs and 2 newfoundlands so I have experience with a variety of sizes. Recently, I lost my soul dog, Max. Max was a shepherd mix and was my whole world. My husband and I had Max since he was a puppy and are looking to get our dog fix by helping out others. We understand the stress finding care for your dog can create, and we would love to help provide a safe and fun environment for your dog when you need it. We have a large yard (unfenced) and safe neighborhood for walks. We also have 2 children, aged 5 and 3. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available most of the time from home any given week. I have 2 children, aged 5 and 3, and they would love to help care for and love on a doggy. I have a large, unfenced yard in a quiet, safe, and dog friendly neighborhood.

I am also happy to pop in by your house to walk your dog if that’s needed.

About: Dogs are my favorite people - I attract dogs wherever I go. I have owned two dogs in my adult life-English Bulldog and Goldendoodle. Currently, I have a 10 year old goldendoodle. She loves everyone. I am a teacher and have off during the summer. I enjoy hiking, camping, biking, running, reading, gardening, and cooking. I’m currently on summer break, so my days are very flexible. During the school year, I am available before 7am or after 4pm. I have a very friendly goldendoodle. I have a big yard. I am willing to provide lots of love, playtime, and walks for your dog. I can be active with your pet or sit with them and love them up. Whatever you need, I can provide.

About: I have had pet care experience with a neighbor for four years now. And I have also helped own a dog for 8 years. With my neighbor I do pet sitting/drop in visits, dog walking, and cat care. With my own dog, I have had him since he was a puppy, and he is my best friend. I have had experience living with him, walking him, feeding him, and bathing and grooming him as well. I would do anything for my dog, and I will transfer that love to all animals I meet. I am a college student and my plan is to do this during my winter break between semesters.
