“Elena provided just the best care we could imagine for our puppy. Her attention to detail and her sensitivity to our puppy’s needs and developmental stage were awesome! Marley had a great time playing with Panda and Zoe. I know she will want to return. And, we will feel confident that we will be leaving her in good hands!”

“We were lucky to have Cynthia as our dog sitter. Cynthia and her family were able to watch our dog Gary on short notice, which made us really happy. Right from the beginning, Cynthia communicated with us well and was very friendly and understanding. We felt comfortable leaving Gary with Cynthia. She sent regular updates with photos and wrote a lovely Rover card at the end, filled with pictures and lots of details. It was so thoughtful and sweet. We would definitely recommend her to others without hesitation. Cynthia is professional, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. Thank you for taking such great care of Gary and being an outstanding dog sitter!”

“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.”

“Julie let me know a new dog would be present at the same time as my dog, and she made sure to attempt to make introduce successful with a 3rd dog. She let me know she was able to keep dogs in separate areas as needed, let dogs have space from each other, and make sure my pup was safe and comfortable.”

About: I grew up with several dogs, have fostered puppies as young as 8 weeks old. I’m experienced with giving fluids and medications, senior pet care, and making sure pets are clean and comfortable. My apartment is right along the Monona Bike Loop trail, which I often run/walk on with a nearby dog park. I also offer bathing or grooming for an additional fee. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness always come first with me! I work primarily from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I watch. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening snuggles, I make sure each pet feels like part of the family and gets the consistency they need. My days are organized around routines that prioritize their happiness and wellbeing. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of toys, comfy spots to nap, and access to a secure yard (if you have one). I follow each pet’s individual feeding, medication, and exercise schedule, and send regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to stick to their established routines. I make sure to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care your pet needs. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space as if it were my own.

About: As the daughter of a veterinarian in the Madison area, I am no stranger to taking care of animals. As a young girl, I was the neighborhood pet sitter, with years of experience in the clinic with my mother. As a college student, I seek that same type of fur friendship that I had growing up. I have experience with dogs as young as milk-weening and older pups on their journey of joy. At the end of the day, just an animal lover. :) I am a part time student who spends the majority of my time inside my apartment studying or outside on walks. Your pet would be right there alongside me for all of it. I live in an apartment complex close to many outdoor walking spaces. My unit, as well as personal bedroom locks with security in and around the building at all times. If crating is required, I have plenty of room to accommodate this aswell.

About: I have one dog myself and have worked to train him since he was a puppy. I have had pets in my life since I was young and love caring for them! I currently work as a lifeguard but am looking to work a little extra. Walking dogs is a great combination of me to fit in something I love. I have a very flexible schedule on top of that as well. I know how to correctly walk a dog with prior experience with my own. I understand the ways in which to properly train and ease a dog into their walk.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was a little kid and would do anything for them. I've also worked with dogs for the past 2 years. I have a Rat Terrier of my own and will make sure to treat your dog like they're my own. I’m used to all kinds of dogs whether it be age, energy level, or condition as I’ve had a mix of all at my job and growing up! I'm a student with lots of breaks between my classes meaning I’m usually only gone for less than two hours and I have lots of free time on the weekends. Max I’ll be gone is four hours, but that rarely happens. My dog is very friendly and energetic, but also knows when a dog doesn’t want to play. She’s very silly and loves to sleep! I live near the lake and can take your dog out often as there’s a nice trail along the lake and campus is pedestrian friendly. I live in an apartment, so I’m looking to host dogs who are comfortable in a quieter environment. Since I share walls with neighbors, I’m best suited for dogs who aren’t big barkers. That being said, I love dogs with a personality! A little energy and playfulness is totally welcome, I just ask that barking is kept to a minimum. Dogs are allowed to free roam around the apartment whether I’m with them or gone. If your puppy has energy to burn but knows when to settle down, we’ll get along great! In your own home I will take on any type of dog with any energy level! I will make sure to care for your dog while you are away just as you care for them while you’re in your house. A dogs safety and their comfort are a top priority for me!

“This was our first time with Luke. He was a terrific dog sitter! He took time to find out about Skye's history and special needs, to introduce her carefully to the two other dogs in his care, and to communicate promptly with me. The environment was calm, clean and dog-friendly. I was so happy to see pictures of Skye and thear that she was adjusting well. I hope to have Skye with Luke again in the near future.”
