“Joey did a fantastic job taking care of our three pets. Two of them are elderly and require medication. I felt so much better leaving for our trip knowing she was staying in our house keeping them company.”


“Allie pet-sat for our pets (2 doodles and 1 kitty) for three days with one overnight stay. She was absolutely wonderful to work with. She met with us ahead of time to get to know our pets, ask questions, get to know our preferences, and get the house key and last minute instructions. Her communication through everything has been fabulous, including regular updates while we were out. Allie was prompt, professional, and so so kind. We felt 100% comfortable leaving our fur babies with Allie, knowing they were getting extra cuddles, pets, and play time. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”


“I loved how communicative Ava was the entire time we we’re out of town. She sent many updates and pictures, and I know the her babies were taken care of really well! Thank you Ava!”


About: I've had dogs for most of my life, I love going for long walks and playing fetch. My schedule is very flexible and I'm able to accommodate their needs! I'm an incoming college freshman at UW Madison, and I'm using pet-sitting as my sole job for this summer, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! I have a lot of love to give to your pets, animals have a special place in my heart. I would love to take your pup for long walks in Lapham Peak or any other park!

“Sklyer did a great job taking care of our two dogs in our home. She was very responsive, came to our house ahead of our vacation to meet us and the dogs, and provided frequent updates while we were away. We will definitely have you back again Sklyer, thank you so much for a worry free time away from home!”


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 3.5 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 do not currently work and am a lucky stay at home dog mom! I only leave for short periods of time to buy groceries on typical days! When our dog is outside I am always watching/making sure she stays within the yard. If left outside she has a long leash she hangs out on and enjoys watching the squirrels. She has a dog bed outside for days that aren't so warm to lounge in. We also have a large front patio that can be fenced off in case we have a runner on our hands! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as I am home all day.

“Cindy was great! Great communications and took excellent care and attention to my dog while I was away. Valentine got daily walks and play time; the pictures sent to me was very reassuring.”
