“Our Wheaten Terrier Pippin gets so happy and excited once he realizes we are headed to David's place. David is always careful with supervision and introductions and had been accepting of Pippin's "quirks" like holding down the water bowl with a paw in the bowl... we appreciate the photos and updates when Pip is with David for longer stays. If there were more stars available to award, David would deserve them all for his level of attention and caring!”


“Maura and Lauro took wonderful care of our dog ZuZu. It was apparent that they have much experience with dogs. ZuZu enjoyed her time and we will definitely use them again.”



“Ruby was great! Very easy to work with, was constantly sending pictures and videos! Made leaving my babies much easier. She also asked what I was comfortable with them doing on the farm. They got lots of exposure to things that they never would at other facilities. Extremely clean building and lots of room for them to run and play. Very thankful for finding her. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for daycare or boarding.”


“My pup Popsicle loves Cynthia and gets so excited to see her! Cynthia gives excellent ‘pupdates’ and is super-communicative, so when you’re away from your pup (and missing them), you’ll get beautiful pics and updates. She treats my pup like family, and I’ve hired her again and again!”


“Emily took great care of our pup, Toby! He is 10 weeks old and she was capable of managing the extra needs of a young puppy. Emily was very communicative and responsive to messages. We would send our pup to be cared for by her again!”


“Gilian is amazing! Great communication and flexibility. This was our first time sending our dog to daycare and we couldn't have asked for a better person to watch him! Thank you!”


About: I am nurturing and gentle, and will provide your pet with the best experience. I’ve had lots of animal experience with my own pets, and volunteered at the humane society providing those animals with the extra comfort and TLC they need. I am available Monday through Friday as well as the weekends. Early morning, not late evenings. :) Currently I work at 8am, and am off around 5pm. But would be willing to walk/spend time with the animals before/after to make their day that much better :) I have a large yard for the animals to play, plenty of toys, and lots of love to give. :) your animals will thrive in my care.

“Korie took great care of my dog Wolfie. Her response was fast to my request for daycare and Korie’s dog Ozzy played well with Wolfie. They even went on three walks too! Wolfie was a very relaxed pup when I picked him up. Thanks Korie!”


About: I have grown up with dog in my life, Walking them is my job, also my work out. 1 miles at least walk per walk. I grown up with big dogs , walking them is the best way to waste their energy. Also add some work out on my own. For visiting, I work in the 8am-4:30pm , during weekdays anytime before 8 or after 4:30 pm will work for me. On the weekend I usually I can walk them anytime. I live in an apartment I do believe that if you walk him well enough (longer distances, let them smell around) they don’t need a yard. I walk my dog at least one mile per walk. I also play with them at home to make sure they are good to go.

About: Hi my name is Yee Lam but everyone calls me Suki. I grew up with dogs and am a dog lover. I had a beloved toy poodle named Seven for 15 years, who was truly the best dog and a cherished member of our family. I’m a full-time mom, and when my son (9) and daughter (7) are in school, I have plenty of free time to care for pets—playing with them, feeding them, and giving them all the attention they need. My kids love dogs too, and I think this is a wonderful way for them to learn the joys and responsibilities of having a puppy. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 9 a.m. We have a spacious yard for safe outdoor play, and our neighborhood is calm, family-friendly, and right next to a school, with no major roads nearby, so you can feel at ease knowing your dog will be safe on our walks.

“Jackie took great care of Millie when we went out of town for the day. Millie had a long walk and got to play in the yard with the hose. She was all tuckered out when she came home at the end of the day.”


“I'm thrilled I found this family to take care of my chocolate lab. Came to Madison for a wedding looking to find someone to wear out my dog. I sure did find great family. They have nice size property for her to run around, toys , and a bonus kiddie water pool. I picked her up and she fell asleep right away before we made it too the hotel. Thank you. I will use them again whenever I'm back in Madison.”


About: I grew up training and showing dogs and will always have a soft spot in my heart for them, especially seniors! I pet-sit for friends and family regularly, and recently decided to open my home to some new furry friends that will keep me company while I work from home. I work from home regularly and love to have a companion during the day, especially for lunch time walks. Overnight boarding works great too with my flexible schedule! I will do my best to follow your dog's regular schedule so that they are comfortable! I can easily let dogs out during the day. I have experience giving dogs medicine (usually a marshmallow or some cheese will do the trick!) As I'm home all day, I could accommodate a dog with separation anxiety.

About: I am a very kind person to animals and people! I try to treat people and animals as I would like to be treated. I would love to care for your pet and will always try to do the best job that I can. Growing up my family always owned a dog and I love all dogs of all sizes. We owned chihuahuas and we owned boxers and pugs. I also own a cat that I love very much! I hope that you will consider me to care for your pets when you are not able to. I promise to treat them as though they were my own. I hope that you will consider me to care for your pet and will do my best. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be fully present with my dogs and cat and any animals I may have the privilege of watching. I typically have a routine with my dogs and cat. They all get fed twice a day. I try to play with them a little every hour and we typically take walks twice a day as well. I do have an outdoor play area for them they go out supervised about 4 times a day

About: I have had animals my whole life and love every kind. I look after family and friends animals when they are away, I am open to any type of animal. My girls love helping me when it's time to take care of our animals whether it's feeding, scooping poop or litter, and feedings. Most of all they love snuggles I work from home during the week and my job is very flexible. I am open to help 6am to 8pm daily. Not a ton of notice needed. My husband has a service dog as he is a disabled veteran. We have 3 kiddos and they love animals and taking care of them! They may on occasion join me to learn good work ethics. If that's not ok, no worries just let me know.

“I cannot recommend Suki enough! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much care and attention she give to every pup she look after. She took the time to learn about my dog’s personality and routines. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates with photos and little stories, which put my mind completely at ease. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone who treats my dog like family.”
