Justine is the best! She was flexible and kind, working with us when our plans changed on short notice. She's always wonderful with our kitty and shares detailed updates. She even went above and beyond to help us address a pest issue while we were away. Thank you, Justine!!

Juneau really seemed to like her. We had our home camera on and Mara was very appropriate in the home. She was easy to communicate with and followed our directions. We plan to use her in the future with our son’s dog.

About: I grew up with dogs and hamsters as a kid, but my love for animals didn’t end there. I raised and trained two dogs from puppies to adult. I volunteered at the SPCA socializing cats. I adopted and raised cats from kitten to adult. I currently have a 15 yr old and two 2.5 yr old cats. I have helped dog sit and cat sit for friends over the years and fostered several litters of dogs and a few cats. I love animals and will ensure yours gets the attention, care and time they deserve. I’m currently a teacher on summer break . I’m traveling for some of June but around in July with low key plans around the area. I’d fit my plans around your fur baby’s needs. I will follow the needs you share of your pets and your expectations , and use my skillset to connect with your animals at the level they are comfortable with.

This was our first time having Rachel look after our boys! She did an excellent job and was stellar with her questions and attention to detail. She had questions for us about details we forgot on our OWN cat instructions. If you are looking for a new cat sitter - look no further!

Thien-Nha is absolutely wonderful and I’m so lucky to have found her. She’s reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind. Even my super shy kitty came out of hiding to say hello when Thien-Nha came over. I feel she really goes above and beyond for our pets and that is simply invaluable. Will definitely hire her again for our next trip.

About: I have been cat and dog sitting since I was 16! I have experience walking and pet sitting for neighbor’s, friend’s and family’s animals. I also grew up with dogs so I am very comfortable with all ages and sizes of animals! I have experience volunteering at the Wisconsin Humane Society from college so I have formal dog walking training! I just finished a contract working at Stanford and have some extra time in my day now. I am big on taking my daily walks outside and any pet can join me! Other than exercising I spend most of my day doing work and reading being a couch potato. I always try to work with the pets routine and stay flexible. I am big on making the pets comfortable (usually with treats and floor time) around me. I like to spend time with pets in their home before taking them on walks or letting them out. I can follow any rules set and any training that needs to be enforced as well.

About: I’ve shared life with animals for 23 years—starting with my cat Chiquita (14 wonderful years), a rescued lab-beagle Hooke, and two rambunctious pups: Tiger (adopted 4 years ago) and Lou (3 years ago). Tiger lives confidently with epilepsy, so I’m well-versed in seizure monitoring, timed oral meds, and sub-cutaneous injections when needed. Right now my own dogs are staying abroad, so caring for your pets fills that furry void. With this hands-on medical experience, I’m equally comfortable looking after seniors, puppies, and other special-needs companions. Your dog receives one-family-at-a-time attention, calm positive-reinforcement handling, and daily photo updates. Standard neighborhood walks and yard play are included; beach days, trail hikes, or extended runs can be arranged for an additional fee to cover travel and time. I work locally but not on a strict 9-to-5 clock, so pets start their day with a 7 AM walk and breakfast, get a mid-day potty break (between 12-2 PM), and enjoy a long evening adventure after 5 PM. Weekends are wide open for beach runs, parks, or lazy couch snuggles. Boarding stays include one family movie night—dogs pick the film!—and lights-out around 10 PM. I never book more animals than I can give individual attention. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority. I host one family at a time in a clean, smoke-free house with a fully fenced yard, so dogs (and adventurous cats!) can sniff around outdoors under my watch whenever the weather’s nice. Inside, open space, and plants are pet-safe. For outings, I’m fully kitted out—seat-belt harnesses, water packs, etc. I ask for current vaccines before booking to keep everyone healthy. You’ll get time-stamped photos and quick replies throughout your pet’s stay, so you’re never left wondering how your best friend is doing.

Marilyn is the absolute best! We have a senior kitty named Zelda who is on a daily medication. Right before we left for an international trip we needed to find someone quickly who felt comfortable giving a senior kitty medication, but would also help give her the love and attention she needed while we were gone for an extra long trip. Marilyn had no fear and quickly picked up the task! Marilyn was very knowledgeable on the medication and found ways to help give Zelda the medication comfortably. She also sent us so many amazing photos and daily reports so I knew exactly how Zelda was doing. Marilyn is simply one of the best humans and we will definitely be booking again with her in the future!

Huei D was so incredibly amazing taking care of our finicky black 14 year old cat. She made friends so quickly and was always responsive and gave us updates throughout our trip. I honestly think Nyx is going to be disappointed when we come home to not get daily visits from her new friend. Recommend completely!

Lauren came highly recommended by our regular pet sitter when she wasn’t available, and that recommendation stands true. Lauren is a great communicator, took great care of Chicken Nugget, and embraced his quirky personality. She also went above and beyond to keep our house clean and tidy. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services in the future!
