In-home dog walking & pet sitting on the Madison east side. Your pet stays home, in their own routine — with an insured, bonded, background-checked sitter, GPS-tracked walks, and a photo “pupdate” after every single visit.
Real exercise, sniff time, and a midday potty — mapped and timed so you can see exactly where we went. A standing weekly schedule with the same sitter — and up to 15% off.
Walks, drop-ins, sitting, overnights, puppy and cat care — all in your own home, all with a photo pupdate after every visit.
Most bookedA real walk — sniffs, pace, and play — on your schedule. GPS-tracked, with a photo pupdate every time.
Most bookedA 20–30 minute check-in: feed, fresh water, potty break, a little play, and a photo so you can breathe easy.
Daytime sitting in your home, on your pet’s normal routine — no kennels, no strangers, no stress.
Most bookedA sitter stays the night in your home — evening walk, dinner, bedtime, and a morning routine. Your pet barely notices you left.
Frequent short visits for the under-one crowd — potty training support, play, and lots of patient socialization.
Calm, low-stress visits for cats in their own space — fresh food, clean litter, play, and as much (or as little) affection as they want.
After every visit you get a “pupdate”: a GPS map of the walk, a photo, a quick potty & meal checklist, and a note in your pet’s own voice. This is what lands on your phone.
Maple was THRILLED about the squirrels on Spaight St today. Did her business, drank a big bowl of water, and got a belly rub before I locked up. Lights on in the kitchen like you asked. 🐾
Today · 5:02 PMBoth fed, fresh water down, litter scooped. Olive wanted the laser pointer for a solid ten minutes. Biscuit supervised from the windowsill. All meds given. See you tomorrow! 🐱
Evening walk done, dinner eaten, and Rocco is now snoring on the couch beside me. Doors locked, porch light off. We’ll do the morning loop around 7. Sleep easy — he’s in good paws. 🌙
Use the picker, send a message, or call. We’ll match the right service and the right sitter for your pet and your block.
We come to your home — no charge — to meet your pet, learn the routine, and trade keys. If it’s not a fit, no hard feelings.
GPS-tracked walks, care exactly to your notes, and a photo pupdate after every single visit.
Recurring clients get a dedicated sitter your pet knows and loves — and a standing schedule that just works.
Letting someone into your home to care for your pet is a big deal. Here’s exactly how we make it safe.
Every sitter is covered by commercial pet-care liability insurance and bonded against loss. Your home and your pet are protected on every visit.
We hand-pick a small team and run a national background check on every sitter before they ever hold a key. We never sub out to strangers.
Every Sundog sitter is certified in pet first aid and CPR, and carries a kit. We’re trained to stay calm and act fast if something goes wrong.
We never start cold. Before day one we meet you and your pet in your home, learn the routine, and make sure it’s a great fit — at no cost.
Keys are coded — never tagged with your address — and stored in a locked safe, or we use your lockbox or smart lock. Access is logged for every visit.
We keep your vet, your backup vet, and the nearest 24-hour ER on file, plus a signed care authorization, so we can act instantly in an emergency.
Every walk is GPS-tracked and every visit ends with a timestamped photo, map, and note. You always know your pet is happy and cared for.
If a visit ever falls short, tell us and we’ll make it right. We’d rather lose the fee than lose your trust.
No memberships, no lock-in. Recurring weekly clients get the same sitter and save up to 15%.

Sitting & overnights while away
“I get a photo and a little map after every walk and it genuinely makes my workday. Maple adores Priya. First walker I’ve trusted with our keys without a second thought.”
“We travel a lot and our cats hate the boarding place. Sundog comes to them — fresh litter, meds, play, and a daily photo. We finally take trips without the guilt.”
“Rocco has separation anxiety and can’t do kennels. Their overnight sitter stayed in our house and sent a bedtime photo of him snoring on the couch. Worth every penny.”
