“We had to leave town unexpectedly and needed someone to care for our cat, Tasha. Madisynn was a lifesaver! Everything from start to finish was fantastic. The communication with Madisynn was always prompt and we never felt out of the loop. She is warm, professional, and one can tell that she truly cares for the animals she watches. We will definitely go with Madisynn again in the future!”


“Lauren was great with our dog. Our lab is older and I didn’t want to board him. She came into our house to feed, play, and let him out. She gave him lots of attention! She sent excellent notes and picture updates. We would definitely recommend Lauren!”


“Laura did awesome! She was so quick to communicate, sent me photos every day, and let me know exactly how Sawyer was doing when she visited. I felt very comfortable having her check in on him and will definitely re-book with her in the future.”


About: I love animals and share my life with my boyfriend, two cats, and a dog. Our home is filled with their playful energy and affection. For years, I've enjoyed dog walking and dog sitting for friends and family, finding joy in every wagging tail and happy bark. Animals bring such warmth and companionship, and I cherish every moment spent caring for them. Whether it's cuddling on the couch or taking long walks, they make life richer and more fulfilling. I am currently employed as an Athletic Trainer for Emplify Health (formerly Gundersen) for the past 6 years. As much as I love providing care for the student-athletes at Central High School, I also love providing care for animals! I am typically at work in the afternoons starting around 1:00pm so I am available in the mornings on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I am available most weekends for pet care as well. My boyfriend and I currently have 2 cats and a dog that we care for. I take our dog, Daisy, on walks daily to ensure she is getting her exercises as needed. As a larger dog, I know the needs she has for her activity level. I have worked with her on commands as well since she was a puppy.

“Bella was so wonderful! She came and kept Boone company while we were at a wedding in town. We felt safe and comfortable with our dog in her care. It was nice that she sent pictures and updates too! Thank you again Bella!”


About: Why I’m the Student Sitter You and Your Dog Can Count On Hi, I’m Addie, a college sophomore with a lifelong love of dogs and a track record of showing up when it matters. I’ve lived with and cared for a variety of breeds, so I’m comfortable meeting your dog’s unique needs. Reliability you can set your watch by. Quick bonds, low stress. Dogs warm up fast because I speak their language—patient introductions, play at their pace, and plenty of positive reinforcement. Clean, organized care. I keep my space tidy and leave your home exactly as I found it—often cleaner. Flexible schedule. Safety first. I follow leash rules, monitor weather conditions, and send photo updates so you’re always in the loop. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats reliability and responsibility as non-negotiables—and treats your dog like family—let’s chat! I am flexible and available as I am a college student. I can work around your schedule depending on the time of year. Let's chat! Clean, organized care. I keep my space tidy and leave your home exactly as I found it—often cleaner. Flexible schedule. Safety first. I follow leash rules, monitor weather conditions, and send photo updates so you’re always in the loop.

“Alyssa was so great with communication and sending us photos and documentation of her visits with our dog! We are super grateful for her care and will absolutely be booking her again in the future”


“Ally is SO sweet! She really helped ease my mind leaving my foster kittens home while I worked by checking on them, playing with them, feeding them, and sending me the cutest photos! Great communication, very professional - highly recommend!”


About: I’ve fostered dogs since I was in fourth grade, sometimes multiple at a time. Varying in size and age, sometimes cats as well as dogs. I am currently a junior at UWL and work an on campus job. I am going to school full time and my job does block off some of my time but I am willing to work my schedule around the fur babies. I live in the dorms so I will not be able to take the dogs into my home but I can easily take care of them in your home and easily crate if necessary. They will be provided with plenty of love and attention.

About: I’ve been around dogs since age 10, I’ve slowly learned more about legitimate dog training since having my own dog. I prioritize dogs wellbeing over everything. I work from home on Mondays and most Fridays and usually leave the office around 4pm during the week days and am completely free during the weekends. Chat with me and we can work around your schedule and pup’s needs! I have one pup of my own in a small one bedroom apartment and for that reason do not allow in home boarding but if my pup is welcome in yours I am more than happy to stay in homes!

“Kiana was amazing during her drop in visits with our cats. She was able to get them to play and eat treats. She kept the litter boxes clean and the kitties happy. She even watered my plants! Kiana is a great communicator and I will definitely be using her again!”


About: Hi, my name is Megan. I have been volunteering at my local Humane Society, for over 2 years, so I’ve had lots of experience with so many different breeds of dogs! I enjoy all types of animals. Potty breaks I know are important along with tons of play time. I am able to learn/ adapt to your pets needs! All animals are wonderful in my eyes! Lots of pets and scratches, and belly rubs also included! I personally would love to be able to watch your pets. It’s my dream job I’d say! I’m very laidback, and have a calm personality . Also I’ll treat your pet as I would my very own. I work part time! So most days I am available to walk or watch your animals! Just message me to talk more about how I can care for your animal(s)! I would do anything for my animals. There is a fenced in big back yard! My 2 dogs love it. I keep my two dogs as healthy as possible! I love them like family.

About: I have dog sat for 4 years now! I can take care of any size dog. I am working full time 8-5 M-F. I am able to come home during lunch to take the dogs out as well with your request. Happy to stay overnight, and I am fine with sleeping on the couch. Weekends I am happy to stay at your house full time. Will ask for approval when I leave the house unless permission is granted before hand! Let me know if you want pictures of your pups and updates, or if you need time away from the dogs I can take care of anything without updates. Please give me any details regarding food, routines, medicine, and other duties you would like me to complete! I clean up when I leave as well, so everything will look the same as when you left! :) I have taken care of my two family dogs since a very young age. Dogs love me, and I love them. I would be very happy to take care of your dog/dogs when you have other business to attend to. I graduated Viterbo Spring 2024 and have a full-time job, but I am able to let the dogs out at lunch during the week and stay overnight as well. I am completely free on weekends, and would love to spend my free time caring for your awesome dogs. I would like nothing more than to offer you a cheap alternative to a kennel for your dogs on weekends. I provide care to other dogs by responding to their needs, giving them space, attention, and of course playtime whenever they need them. I love to go on walks with dogs, and I learned different techniques to respond to different behaviors at the Coulee Region Humane Society. When meeting for the first time, it is important that I can recognize the body language of the dogs to ensure their comfort and safety as well as my own safety. Meet and greets before sitting are highly recommended.

“We were so fortunate to have Megan as our pet sitter while we were out of town. We have two young cats, and this was the first time we were going to be away from them. Megan took the time to play with them and gave them attention so they weren't lonely! We received daily updates as well. We would absolutely recommend Megan to anyone in need of a caring and considerate pet sitter. She was wonderful!!”

About: My love for animals started when I was young. I would dog sit here and there when I was little and as I grew up I started taking on more serious, committed pet sitting jobs.

I don’t take pets into my own home because of my own dogs. I also have many small animals and I don’t trust others pets around them. I like to keep the dog in their home so they are more comfortable with their surroundings.

“we had a great experience. ayden came over one day to meet the birds and see where their food was stored. each day she sent us a message after her visit. she also sent us pictures. it is hard to find people who are comfortable with birds and Ayden cared for our flock. she even noticed a box that we had delivered to our porch and she put it inside for us.”

She updated us frequently with pictures and videos of our furry children and chickens. We have had a few bad experiences with house sitters not caring for our pets in the past. We could tell when we came home that they seemed anxious and stressed. With Marlie, we did not have that kind of homecoming. All the girls were happy, and our house was still clean and tidy like we left it. Marlie is the BEST!”
