Loving families available for dog sitting
Odessa
Madison, WIBreed: Mixed Breed
Weight: 60 lbs
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
We are a family of three, two humans: Patrick and Joy, and one fur baby: Odessa. Odi is her nickname. We lead a somewhat dog centric lifestyle filled with playing in the yard and at least one walk or hike per day. Odessa loves car rides and play dates with other dogs, she gets along very well with others, shows no signs of resource guarding and is very conflict avoidant, but she will gladly wrestle and chase if her friends have similar play styles. She rarely barks, walks pretty well on a leash, but needs occasional reminders not to pull or chase bunnies. She is pretty polite and well behaved, does not jump on people or counter surf. She is crate trained, but has free run of the house because she does not get into trouble when left alone.
Bunny
Madison, WIBreed: Beagle/Basset/Hound mix
Weight: 30 lbs
Age: 5 years old
Gender: Female
Hi, I’m Andy and recently moved to Madison from Brooklyn, NY. I would love to get to know neighbors. Unfortunately, for now I’ve put socialization for Bunny on hold as she had anxiety at a dog park visit. Will update here when she’s built up confidence and reduced her nerves.
Zuri
Madison, WIBreed: Bernedoodle
Weight: 50 lbs
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
We are a couple who loves being around dogs.. we have one of our own which more or less is our biological baby as her traits are similar to us. We enjoy having a friend for our baby and love to care for your baby.. we understand the need to have a trusted home to leave your baby with while you do life.. We are over protective parents.. so I think you would not have to worry about your baby while you are away. Looking forward to making new friends..
Titus

Weight: 20 lbs
Age: 10 years old

Titus knows how cute he is. He loves to socialize with people at the dog park. He likes to be in charge and has a big personality. Small children love him and he is a fairly mellow house guest content to sit in the sun like a cat. Text me at 608 338 4467 to set up a play date.
