Dog Boarding in Worthington Park, Madison, WI

“I've always been worried about having someone watch my dog because I'm always worried he can be a handful, but he did so well with Joan! She was very quick to respond to my request as I had to find a sitter last minute and she took great care of him and was attentive to his needs like his oral medication. Her dogs are very well behaved and were great company for him! He also had a lot of fun with another dog that was over for doggie day-care. Overall a great place for him to be since he loves to have company! She sent a lot of very cute pictures of him with the other dogs and was very flexible with me when I had an emergency and wouldn't be able to pick him up on time. If I ever need someone to dog-sit for me again I will definitely ask Joan!”

“We love Margaret & so does our pup, she’s at ease whenever she gets to the house and sees her favorite dog sitter. She’s the only Rover we choose and we couldn’t be happier with her excellent care!”

Hayley J.

“Alexander and Hannah did a great job with Cannoli! They were flexible and understanding and tried to ensure she was as comfortable as possible during her stay. I appreciated that they allowed her to sleep in the bed with them to ease her anxiety about being in a new place.”

About: I have been self-employed as a full-time dog sitter for the past 15 years. Prior to opening my dog sitting business I worked as an assistant dog trainer using positive reinforcement training methods. I require a meet and greet before confirming dates so you can see where your dog will be staying, you and your dog(s) can meet me in-person and see the house and yard. We will also discuss their care and specific needs. I have been a dog parent since 2004. I am a full-time dog sitter so I am always with the dogs to ensure they are properly cared for and getting all the exercise, love and attention they deserve. Dogs go in/out as much as they want and get all the love and attention they would just like at home. The yard is fully fenced and there is a ramp so senior dogs have an easier time getting in/out. I have crates set up for those dogs that are normally crated but it is not required for a dog to be crated. All dogs are allowed on the furniture and there are several dogs beds to choose from as well. Of course you can always bring your own if your dog would feel more comfortable having something from home. There is no shortage of treats, cuddles and time outside. I have experience caring for senior dogs, those with medical conditions, separation anxiety and fear of new people.

“Suellen took exceptional care with our three puppies. She has the patience of an angel and sent so many great updates. Can’t thank her enough for the care!”

“This was Gatsby’s second time staying with Edith and he had a blast. The second we pulled up to Edith’s house he lost his mind with excitement realizing where we were! Edith sent frequent updates and photos and I knew Gatsby was getting the best care. Thanks Edith!”

“Rebekah and Alex were great to correspond with. Super flexible and accommodating regarding meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. Our dog had such a fun weekend at their house. We were provided pictures throughout the weekend and were ensured he was at the right place! Would definitely recommend and board with again!!”

“Cynthia was the BEST sitter and she went above and beyond for us! We were completely blown away by her kindness, accommodations, and enthusiasm and will book with her again any chance we have! We had a special request for Cynthia because it was our wedding weekend and our pup, Joey, was going to join us for part of the big day. On top of everything else that goes into boarding, Cynthia also helped coordinate Joey’s arrival and departure from the venue, including picking him up so a guest would not have to leave. She sent the most thoughtful pup-dates from Joey’s POV and the cutest photos, was very responsive, and willing to work with our schedules. She even provided carrots for Joey’s treats when I forgot to pack them. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Cynthia, she helped make our special weekend even better and worry free by taking great care of our little guy. Highly, highly recommend her!”

“Gracie just had her first stay with Emily and it went great. As an older, smaller dog I worry about how she might fit in with a new family. Emily made sure she got lots of attention and fit right in. Emily sent lots of pics which helped ease my anxiety about leaving Gracie. Gracie did great with Emily!”

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. My family growing up never had less than 3 pets at a time so I've grown up loving and rescuing animals including taking care of outdoor feral cats and I have taken a class to learn how to properly bottle feed kittens. I currently have two cats of my own but growing up I have raised puppies and kittens from 2 months old and have had elderly pets that have lived to be 19 years old so I have experience with lots of pets of different ages, breeds, and personality types. I've taken care of upwards of 7 cats all in the same household so I am also experienced with caring for multiple pets including households with multiple cats and also dogs. I think pets are family and best friends and I am excited to meet yours and give them lots of love and attention I may be wearing a mask - don’t worry I’m not sick I am very immunocompromised so I mask around strangers just as an extra precaution so I don’t get sick For daycare or boarding for dogs I would prefer they are cat friendly but accommodations can be made for sure! I work from home 8:30-5 during the weekdays and my work allows me to work remotely wherever I am so I am easily able to hangout during the day with your pets as well be free in the evenings to pay more attention to them. I’m also happy to watch multi pet house holds and do daycare for multiple dogs if you have more than one! During meet ups I may be wearing a mask - don’t worry I’m not sick I am very immunocompromised so I mask around strangers just as an extra precaution so I don’t get sick I have availability in the morning and later in the evenings I can absolutely do drop ins and walks! Feel free to ask me about dates even if it says busy because I usually still can do drop ins and walks especially in the evenings or I might have last minute cancels :) I am more than happy to board or babysit more than 1 dog from the same household/family :) In my own household I would provide them with their own toys, food and water bowls, and take them for lots of walks if applicable. My pets and any animals here are allowed to be on the furniture like the couches and bed but I usually put a blanket and a small bed on the ground in case some babies feel more comfy with that. I am more than happy to also crate them!

“Katherine was fantastic!! Drop off was super quick and easy, and I got a bunch of great pictures throughout the day of my kitty enjoying her stay. I’d recommend to anyone who’s in need of boarding!”

“Maddie was great! She is friendly, responsive, and professional. First time we boarded our pup, and it couldn't have gone better. Ivan got walks and cuddles and we got frequent updates. Would definitely book with Maddie again.”

Katrina K.

“Emily was wonderful! She sent a ton of photos and updates of my dog which put me right at ease. I could tell my dog loved being there. She is a real animal lover. Cannot recommend Emily enough. Their house and family made Flanagan feel right at home. I think Flanagan misses them since she left there.”

Janie W.

“Christine was amazing with our dog Wally. We loved all of the pictures and updates we got from her. We look forward to taking our dog to her for future pet sitting needs. 100% would recommend her to a friend. She went above and beyond for us!”

Steph M.

“Madeleine (and Michelle) was great. She was thoughtful with the planning and had good communication with daily photos and updates. Toaster had a blast with the other pups and came home happy and exhausted. I will definitely be reaching out again!”

Rachelle J.

“Amanda and Paul’s family is wonderful. I can’t say enough good things. They are loving and sweet, and experienced will all types of dogs. I felt really safe and happy to be leaving my pup in their care.”

“Ben & his dogs are wonderful- my 2 year old Bernedoodle fit in perfectly and had a great time romping with Ben’s dogs. Ben was a great communicator and shared helpful videos and photos. Cosmo can’t wait to stay with Ben again!”
