Getting my first puppy and living alone as a student was overwhelming to say the least. I was looking for resources to help me and Wren develop a relationship with good obedience habits while on a reasonable budget, and came across Claire's business from a friend. Claire met with us when Wren was just 3 months old and started off by taking him on weekly walks. Although Claire isn't a certified trainer, she worked with Wren on manners such as basic commands and loose leash walking. Any time I had even a minor question or concern, she was available to help me to the best of her abilities and provide additional resources. Her transparency on Wren's progress and insight have been instrumental in Wren's development into a loving, playful, good boy. When Wren turned 6 months, he began sleeping over at Claire's a couple times a month so I had time to myself. He LOVES going to Claire's and socializing with old and new furiends - now he knows exactly when we get to her house and sprints out of the car! His manners and interactions with dogs and humans have improved so much since staying with Claire even for such short time periods. She provides enrichment activities, treats like Pete's pupsicles, interactive toys, group and individual walks, and unlimited snuggles. During his second sleepover, he was a really naughty boy but Claire's patience and honest recommendations to prevent it from happening again worked almost immediately and he has yet to be that naughty ever since (fingers crossed). Now, he is able to be watched by anybody on Claire's team (I've been lucky enough to meet them all and have their contact information as well just in case) and is comfortable on pack walks, daycare, etc. He's still a puppy and wants to play all day, but the Pet Sitting MKE team has helped him work on boundaries with other dogs and listening skills. Recently, Wren stayed with Claire and her team for over a week while I was out of town. With daily report cards (pictures included!) and responsiveness by phone regarding any concerns, I was at ease knowing he was being looked after by such loving people who made sure I knew how he was doing each day. It gave me peace of mind that Wren was having a vacation of his own and was in the comfort of Claire's home rather than a kennel where he would not get as much individual affection and attention. The professional team Claire has assembled truly treat all the dogs they walk/watch as their own and are flexible to help their costumers and pets. The trust and friendship I've built with them all has helped both myself and Wren develop a healthy relationship with each other, as well as connections with other dogs/dog owners in the MKE area. I truly cannot say enough positive things about Pet Sitting MKE - I recommend them to any dog owner I meet and Wren gives them a 4 paws up! read more

Claire watched my two cats while I went out of town for a long weekend vacation! My cats are spoiled to say the least, and require lots of love, attention, treats, playtime with everything and anything in-between! Motley and Cannon were no match for Claire though. When she came over to my place for a meet and greet, they immediately gravitated towards her and not only them, but I also could feel her good energy and the love she has for animals truly exuberates from her in every way. While I was gone, she sent countless pictures that made me smile, videos of her playing with my rather rambunctious boys, and even took selfies with them displaying the closeness they felt with her snuggled up to her face. When I got home, my apartment looked as though I never left. She gave the boys new food and water bowls, both to which were filed. The cat boxes were scooped and she even went the extra mile to vacuum up the litter that my messy boys drag out of the box with them. She left the sweetest note and definitely made an impact on me! I cannot recommend her enough, she truly is top notch. read more

Claire is amazing! We were in search of someone to watch our two shibas with separation anxiety for a night away. Even leaving them with family stresses them out and they have a history of escaping their harnesses so we're very hesitant to leave them with others. After meeting with Claire and seeing how much she loves what she does and cares about the dogs, we booked her to stay with them overnight and we are so happy we did; the dogs were able to stay in our home with her, which kept them happy, and the photo updates she sent us gave us peace of mind so we could fully enjoy our vacation. And while it wasn't expected at all, she vacuumed and wiped down surfaces so we came home to a clean home which was such a nice touch! We can not recommend this business enough and look forward to booking her for walks next! read more

Pet Sitting MKE has been my go-to pet care provider for the last year. For daily walks or overnight stays I can rely on Claire to do the job. I found Pet Sitting Mke just days before a scheduled trip when my pup was diagnosed with a health issue and I was wary of boarding her while gone. Claire has a thoughtful intake process so that she has the knowledge to care for and love your pet the way you do. She stayed in my home and took care of my dog communicating regularly. What a relief! I also hire Pet Sitting Mke for those times when I'm unable to get home in time for a regularly scheduled walk. I love getting texted photos to know that Claire has been to the house and gotten the dog out. She's is a good communicator, I have extreme confidence in the caretaking abilities of Pet Sitting Mke. read more

I love PetSittingMKE! Claire is just the BEST! She first watched my puppy, Jackson, at just 10 weeks old. As you could imagine, I was nervous to let anyone watch him. I was SO pleased and relaxed to know Jack was ok at home and was loving his potty break visit from Claire. She sent updates of when she got there, how the walk went, and pictures of their time together. We now have Claire come 2-3 times a week twice a day to walk Jack! He LOVES her. There is no better feeling than knowing your pup who is at home when you're at work is in good hands! I am so pleased with Claire and so excited for her expansion of PetSittingMKE. 100% highly recommend. Look no further! :) read more

Claire is top-notch! She is responsible, professional, attentive, and detail-oriented. You can tell that she has a true passion for what she does and loves all the pups (and cats, and lizards, and chickens, and other types of pets) she cares for. We have used Claire for dog walking/playtime services for several months now, and she also checks in with our kitties during each visit. We always get so many cute photos and updates and even know what our pup was up to on her walks through GPS tracking! Our dog always has the best time with Claire and we love knowing she is in great hands when we are away! read more

Claire is truly the best! Claire has been taking our 11 month old labradoodle for walks weekly since she was a puppy. You can tell how much Claire truly loves animals. She is amazing with our pup, Charley. Charley is so excited to Claire and it's the best part of her day. Not only is Claire great with our puppy, but she has make home made treats for her and constantly gives us updates about their walk. Claire has made having a dog possible for us and we would recommend her 12 times out of 10! She's great!! read more

Claire is INCREDIBLE. She takes such care into everything she does. While we've only had her walk our dog Tully once a week for a only a few weeks so far, Tully cries and howls for her when she leaves... if that doesn't speak volumes (literally) to how well Claire does her job, I'm not sure what else does! As a new dog mom, I was so worried about leaving Tully with just anybody, I completely trust Pet Sitting MKE whole heartedly to give the best and quality care for my pup! read more

I have had several bad pet sitting experiences but Claire is the best pet sitter by far and she has made me feel totally comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. She is so loving and goes the extra mile to spoil your dog. She sends report cards daily so you can see all the photos and be aware of everything happening. My dog had so much fun with her, I will definitely be using this service again read more

I cannot speak highly enough about Claire and her team! It's always hard to leave behind a beloved pet but they do such a great job of sending updates and lots of pictures! I can tell that they are all animal lovers and my cat loves them as well and is always so excited to see them! They have been extremely professional and easy to work with. Absolutely 100% recommend! read more

Claire is absolutely amazing when it comes to watching the pups. I have boarded with her as well as used her walk-in services and she exceeded my expectations everytime. She has able to help me out last minute when I left for a weekend and needed dog care. She also gives timely updates and photos if requested. I know my pups are in great hands with her! read more
