Dog Sitting Windsor

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have worked with breeds of different sizes and backgrounds, including some with special needs. In my home life, I have two cats that I adore and spend much of my free time with. I’m available all day on weekends, as well as from 5:30pm onward on weekdays (typically). If you have specific requirements for your animal let me know and we can create a schedule that works best for you! I can perform any specific needs that your pet may need. One of my own pets has special medical requirements, so I am familiar with taking care of animals that need extra care.

“Anne was very responsive and arrived as requested. Maizie looked happy in the check in pics and was in good spirits when I got home.”

“Helped out during a family emergency. Very responsive and followed directions perfectly. I highly recommend her for drop in care!”

“Lexy is a true dog lover. Nina warmed up to her right away. We felt totally comfortable having Lexy stop in for a drop in visit. She kept us update on her visit. Looking forward to using Lexy again to take care of Nina.”

“We're very pleased with Autumn, and greatly appreciated her above and beyond services for our 2 cats, AND the stray barn cats from abandoned property next door! During the meet/greet they were on our deck, as it was the time I usually feed them, and Autumn eagerly offered to fill their bowls while she was here. Our request was for only 2 cats, she didn't have any obligation beyond that. THAT'S above and beyond! Thank you, Autumn! We'll reach out again when we're away next time! 🫶”

“We had a great experience with Abigail taking care of our two senior dogs over Memorial Day weekend! She was communicative, prompt, and consistently checked in when questions came up. We really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to accommodate our dogs’ individual needs and quirks. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in reliable and attentive hands while we were away. We’d absolutely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a young girl occasionally pet sitting around the neighborhood. Now, I am an avid animal lover. I have years of volunteer experience at the Dane County Humane Society where I care for a variety of animals. I have experience caring for animals with diverse medical needs. I am a geriatric social worker in Dane County. I have most holidays off, but am available after 4pm during the work week. I am also available over the weekends for pet care. I believe that trust is essential in a petsitter. I will provide frequent updates, pictures, and videos of your pets as well as try my best to accommodate to specific requests.

About: i’ve taken care of all kinda of animal, dogs, cats, and others! i’ve been taking care of many animals all of my life big or small☺️ i’m currently working a full time job, so I am required to either work after 10 pm and before 1pm during the day anytime between☺️ I have three cats all inside we groom them very regularly and feed them two times a day, we make sure to keep them stimulated and exercised so they live a long life!

About: Hi! My name is Marcela, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a special place in my heart for both dogs and cats. I have two dogs of my own, Chester and Athena. Chester is my small rescue dog, and I’ve had him since I was 9 years old. I truly grew up with him, and he has been by my side for most of my life. Chester is deaf, and as he’s gotten older, he has also developed anxiety and takes medication to help manage it. Over the years, I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and understanding an animal’s individual needs can be. I communicate with Chester using hand signals and gentle body language, and caring for him has taught me so much about connecting with animals at every stage of life. Athena is my pit bull, and we love spending time outdoors with our animals. Whether we’re going for walks, playing, or simply enjoying the fresh air, I genuinely love giving animals attention, exercise, and plenty of affection. Athena has also had difficulty getting along with other dogs, so we worked with her through training to help her become more comfortable and learn how to interact appropriately. This has given me firsthand experience with the patience, structure, and careful management that some dogs need when around other animals. I also have hands on experience caring for a cat with significant medical needs. My cat, Fergi, was diagnosed with HCM and eventually developed end stage heart failure. During his illness, I became very familiar with the day to day care that comes with heart failure, including administering medications, monitoring his breathing, appetite, energy, and behavior, and paying close attention to small changes in his condition. Going through that experience also taught me how difficult it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care when they’re sick or have special needs. I know how much worry can come with wondering if they’re okay while you’re away. Because of that, I want to be the kind of person who gives another pet parent that same sense of comfort and reassurance, knowing their pet is being watched over with patience, love, and genuine care. I absolutely love cats, and after recently losing Fergi, I’m not quite ready to bring another cat into my home yet. I would, however, love the opportunity to care for and spend time with other people’s cats. It would be really special to have that connection again while giving your cat the love and attention they deserve. I also take pride in the everyday care I give my own pets, including brushing my dogs’ teeth daily. I’m happy to provide routine care like this when requested, along with walks, playtime, feeding, medication, and plenty of companionship. Whether your pet is young, a senior, anxious, shy, energetic, or needs medication or extra patience, I’ll treat them with the same kindness and attentiveness I give my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone, and my goal is for both you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re apart. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! ❤️ I have a flexible schedule since my partner and I run our own microgreens farm. This allows me to work pet care into my schedule and be flexible with walks, drop ins, and stays. I’ll care for your pet(s) based on their individual needs and any instructions you provide—every situation is different, and I’m happy to adapt to what’s best for them.

“Alliyah watched our 15 y/o dog for 12 days while we were on spring break. She was easy to schedule with and communicative. Georgie seemed to really enjoy her visits and we recommend her!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up with multiple family dogs, mostly larger breeds. After college, I adopted a dog of my own who was by my side for 10 wonderful years. I've also spent the past decade volunteering at local animal shelters, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of every size and temperament, from tiny pups to gentle giants. Along the way, I've learned how to work with nervous or anxious dogs, administer medication, and care for the specific needs of senior dogs. Whatever your dog needs, chances are I've handled something similar. I can't wait to meet your pup and give them all the love they deserve! My schedule is very flexible, which makes it easy for me to work pet care into my day. My day job is fully remote, so I'm able to build walks and drop-in visits around my work rather than being tied to a rigid 9-to-5. Right now I have even more flexibility, since I'm between roles, so I can typically accommodate last-minute requests or visits at times that might be trickier for others to fit in. Since I offer drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting, I spend most of my time in your home rather than mine — so keeping things safe and familiar for your pet is my main focus. - I go over feeding, medication, and routine details with you before I start, so nothing gets missed - I double-check leashes, harnesses, and collars before every walk - I lock up and secure the house every time I come and go - I'm comfortable with nervous or anxious dogs — I read their body language and never rush them - I can manage medication schedules and give senior dogs the extra care they need - I send photo and video updates so you always know how your pup is doing - I keep your vet's info on hand just in case Your home, your routine, your dog — I just fold right in and keep things running smoothly while you're away.

About: I've had 2 family dogs and 4 cats! As well as helping take care of friends and roommates pets. I love them and it's fun for me, just thought it'd be a cute and easy way to make a little extra money. I work full time so can only do quicker drop-ins in the mornings and/or evenings during the week but could drop by more over weekends! Am good to drop by homes/apartments and feed/walk/hang out with pets for a bit, not available to care for them from my apartment.

About: I have raised and trained dogs (cats, bunnies, & livestock) since a very young age. I am very active and love to run and play with critters. But I also love to chill and snuggle. I have farm experience, and spent some time working with dog breeders, groomers, and in animal healthcare. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a child. I have dealt with special needs, injuries, administering medication, and holistic health remedies. I understand that dogs require a considerable amount of attention and exercise, and I am up for the challenge. I am a professional business owner and I take my responsibilities to you and your pets very seriously. I am a small business owner so I get to make my own schedule. It allows me to break up the work day and pop in on pups. Every dog loves a mid day walk in the park! We have a fenced in yard and we take daily walks around the neighborhood. Our dogs are the biggest divas and have ALLLLLL the toys and treats and chews that a pup could dream of. (And backyard games of fetch to run off all those extra snacks)

“She was sooo amazing!! Could not have asked for a better sitter and peace of mind. Updates and pics and communication was great. Will definitely be using her again if she's willing and available.”

“Sidney was so professional work with, and we appreciated her responding to us so quickly when we needed help on short notice. Layla loved her! We will definitely use Sidney again.”

“Travis stepped up at the last minute to provide drop in care over the holidays. He was communicative, great with Frankie, and very professional. We came home to a very happy pup!”

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs of every kind my entire life basically. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me since I was a little girl to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I currently dog sit full time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding all seven days of the week at anytime of need! I have a spacious yard and two friendly female dogs(both spayed) to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.

About: I am a loving, compassionate, and reliable person that has a love for animals. I am also athletic and can take your puppy companion for a jog! I have unlimited availability for pet care. The only time I am not available is at 3pm, when I pick up my two pet loving children from school. I have a fenced in yard in a nice neighborhood, and a lake across the street if your pet likes to swim. I am also available to come to your home as well. I am available in Rock County and Dane County.

“Kylie was a life saver taking a last minute appointment request. She was great with both of our cats for in-home visits. She went above and beyond with the quality of service provided. Would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
