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!!

About: Hi! I’m Ayomi, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all ages and personalities from energetic puppies still learning the world to older dogs who move a little slower and need some extra love. I approach pet care the same way I would care for my own patient, present, and with a whole lot of heart. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique needs and routines because I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their people are away. Whether your dog needs long walks, gentle play, quiet companionship, or help with medication or anxiety, I’m here to meet them where they are and give them the attention they deserve. I truly love building trust with both pets and their humans. You can expect regular updates, happy photos, and the reassurance that your pup is in loving, capable hands. Every visit is a chance to create a little joy and comfort for your furry friendcand that’s a responsibility I take seriously and gratefully. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I often work from home in my downtown Madison apartment. I love taking long walks around town or heading to Picnic Point for a quiet hike, so having a pup along for the journey just makes it that much better. I usually walk about a mile or two a day, but I’m happy to adjust based on your furry friend’s energy level and needs. My schedule is flexible, and with at least a week's notice, I can make sure I’m fully available to give your dog the time and attention they deserve. I’ve always loved traveling, so pet sitting is a fun and fulfilling way for me to enjoy the company of dogs while I’m still settling down. Whether it’s a weekend stay or daily walks, I’m excited to share my time! Creating a safe and comforting environment is my top priority, whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours. I treat every dog like family—with patience, attentiveness, and a whole lot of love. In my downtown apartment, pets are kept in a clean, calm space free of hazards, with plenty of room to stretch, nap, or play. I don’t have any other pets, so your dog will get my full attention and care without distractions. When I’m in your home, I’m always respectful of your space and routines, making sure your dog stays comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I follow all care instructions closely and provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pup is doing. I believe trust is built through consistency, communication, and genuine care and that’s what I bring to every visit. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just keeping your pup company, I’m committed to making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home.

Tony did a great job with our dog, Chester. It was our first time leaving our dog with someone else, so we were a little nervous, but he did so well! Tony was great at sending us pictures and updates every day, and we could tell Chester was having a wonderful time. We’d definitely book with Tony again!

She sent several timely photos and updates, which was very reassuring especially when we missed her on our trip. Definitely would love to book again!

Our high energy pup was well taken care of and got plenty of exercise chasing his frisbee in Yoki & Derek’s big fenced back yard. Even though he hadn’t spent a lot of time with other dogs before, he came home from his 9 day vacation happy and unstressed. We received lots of pictures and updates so we weren’t stressed either.

I cannot express enough gratitude and how exceptionally accommodating Kristin & Bruce (& of course their little darlings as well!) were with my little pup Ellie! It was a spur of the moment decision to check into a pup sitter while in town for my UW Madison freshman’s 1st football game & what a gem we found!! Booked the appt & met the fam w/in an hour & were so incredibly impressed & confident w/them that we modified our booking for an overnight stay! Having not planned a sitter, we showed up without her bed or paperwork yet were still fully welcomed into their home. Little Ellie (3.5 lb 5.5 mo. Yorkie) spent the day playing with the kiddos inside & out then snuggled with mom & dad all night!🥰 Since I’m now an empty nester, I honestly believe she wasn’t ready to leave when we came for pickup! She was definitely living her best life and I will, without a doubt, be booking further appointments as I pop into town for a visit!

Rebecca was very friendly and welcoming to our dog. She has a large yard and enjoys being outdoors, so your dog will have lots of fun roaming the yard and stretching their legs. She’s a passionate dog lover and has experience which made us feel comfortable leaving our senior dog. We would use her services again!

About: I am a person who truly loves taking care of dogs. I believe they are extremely important members of our lives and our families. Dogs bring joy, love, and positive energy into our home, and they always make us feel happier and more comfortable. I enjoy spending time with them, caring for their needs, and making sure they feel safe and loved. For me, dogs are not just pets, they are loyal companions who make our home a better place. Many years ago, I worked as a caregiver, and I have many years of experience taking care of dogs. Through that experience, I have learned how to understand how dogs feel by observing their actions, behavior, and body language. I pay close attention to their needs, moods, and energy levels to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. Caring for dogs is something I take very seriously and do with patience and dedication. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow the pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language to understand how they are feeling and to meet their needs. I also keep their living area clean, provide exercise and companionship, and communicate with owners to ensure their pets are happy and well cared for.
