“Michele was great with Pekoe. His photos showed my stranger-averae parrot to be calm and happy. She did a great job respecting his space and personality while keeping his bedtime routine intact. I've already booked her for my next 2 trips. 🙂”
About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
“Leandrea was so wonderful with our dogs over our weekend away. She was so patient and provided a peace of mind leaving them while we were away. We will definitely be using her again and are so grateful we have someone we can trust when we need time away.”
“Lily took great care of my cats and was extremely patient in attempting to give one of them her medication. She even came back an additional time one day to try again, which I really appreciated. My cats were well cared for, and it was clear she genuinely wanted to do a good job. There was one day when I had to reach out to confirm she had stopped by, and she apologized, explaining that her phone had died during the visit. Overall, I appreciated her effort, reliability, and care for my pets!”
“Mary is wonderful. I am so glad to have come across her service and connected. Her service is exactly what I needed. Also, she is very prompt with communication which I really appreciate.”
About: I’m a true dog lover who treats every pup like family. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, walks, and playtime. I understand how important routines and trust are, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am currently at home all day not working and have plenty of time to take care of your pet and be attentive to their needs. I have a fenced in yard to keep your dog safe and secure. I can also keep your dog in a crate or behind a gate if needed.
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
“Marilia did a great job cat sitting. Marilia is responsive, caring, and will go above and beyond to take care of your pet/home while you’re away. Definitely would rebook.”
“Courtney was absolutely wonderful! She watched my cat Blue while I was gone and sent loads of adorable pictures and videos daily and kept me updated on how Blue was doing. She took the extra time to play with him and brush him, and handled giving him his ear drops and medication fantastically!! I definitely recommend Courtney and look forward to continuing to work with her for all my pet sitting needs :)”
“Courtney is awesome!!! My beagle looks forward to her morning with her and they have a great time together!! Initially started with coverage during a hospital stay and turned into a regular routine!! Thank you so much Courtney!”
“Angela was extremely responsive and took great care of our kitties! We felt so much better knowing she was checking in on them! Will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“As always, Jenn is so great! She goes above and beyond to make sure our precious kitty is cared for. Our kitty has some particular issues which require daily meds which he can be persnickety about taking. We are so grateful for Jenna’s dedication to ensuring that our kitty took his medication as much as possible. We are so happy with Jenn’s service!”
“Vanessa was amazing with Raychel. She was courteous, helpful, and you can really tell she loves animals. My Raychel is stubborn, but Vanessa understood her and had loads of patience. At the end Raychel got so used to her she looked forward to Vanessa’s visits. It was a great experience with her and I would definitely book her again.”
“Taylor went above and beyond taking care of our dog. We wanted her to stop by in the late afternoon. She had a wedding to attend, so she stopped by early, then came late to make sure our dog was good.”
“Lisa was spectacular. We have already booked her again and we haven't been home for twelve hours. Punctual, professional, she clearly made our reticent pet comfortable and somehow got him out of his shell. I would recommend her unequivocally and without reservation. Awesome!”

About: I work as a part-time doggy swim coach and teacher at the Milwaukee County Zoo! Right now I'm not able to have dogs or cats of my own, so I get my pet fix by providing care for other people animals. I am used to working with anxious and senior dogs and I grew up with four cats! Due to my other jobs drop ins and over nights work best for my schedule. I can be flexible, so if you have preferences let me know! Safety is a top priority to me! I am used to working with stressed out and anxious animals. Let me know if you have any concerns and/or questions.
About: Hello! (Usually available after 5:30 pm during the week days and free on Fridays) My name is Stephane and I'm a project engineer in environmental science. I have had cats since my childhood, a mother, and a daughter I had the chance to live with for 20 years. Today, I have a cat I got from a refuge, called Juno. He was super shy and introverted due to his sad past but I can see a lot of progress in his behavior. He is some work but seeing him getting more and more free makes me happy. I have also always been with dogs and love to take them on walks and play with them. I took care daily of my roommate's dog (Kenny) in Toronto, taking him regularly on walks and dog parks. I live in North Water Street and can drive to your home to take care of your best friend(s). I'm also an aquarist and can look of your aquatic friends if you need it. I hope to see you soon and your best friend! I always start my day with a hello to Juno :) He usually comes to me claiming food like for having breakfast and we cuddle after. Which is a perfect start for having a good day. I will follow any instructions you give me to keep your pet routine as normal as possible. I will be respectful of your space and will always ensure that everything is closed and safe for your pet. I can send you updates with photos if you need them.

Mallory is just the best honestly. My dog is my world and it was very difficult to go up north this year without her. There was so much incredible communication and photos with visit summary’s that made my heart melt. My elderly cat had a few accidents and without thought she cleaned it up and kept everyone loved while I was away. I would use her again in a heartbeat. I understand why she is a star sitter. She is extremely trustworthy with the lives and routines of your pets. <3
Hailey went above and beyond to ensure my dog, Sam, had a walk with her. When I provided the wrong lockbox code thanks to a typo, she used all of her resources to ensure she could still complete the visit. This was extra work for Hailey that she should not have had to do, but she figured it out while I was tied up at work, and sent a detailed report with many photos of my dog. Hailey is highly competent and independent and clearly knows how to solve a problem should one arise while your pet is in her care. I will absolutely be working with her again. Great first Rover experience!
Liz is so sweet & follows directions very well! Our two boys absolutely love her as she goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of while we are out of town. I was so happy Liz was available to watch them as she knows their routine and always willing to help more if needed. Cannot recommend enough!
Caitlyn is an amazing cat sitter! I hired her while I was away for a work trip and she dropped in multiple times a day and medicated one of my cats (who gets several meds throughout the day). On top of that, her updates were phenomenal! She gave me up descriptions of my cats activities that were very consistent with their personalities, so I could tell she was really paying attention to their moods and needs. One of the best cat sitters on here and I would easily hire her again! So flexible to work with, sends amazing photos, and responds quickly.
Nicole was excellent! When she came for the meet and greet, she asked excellent questions to really get to know our girls and set expectations. She was calm and let our girls come to her. Then, when she came for the visit, she took excellent care of our kitties and was able to pill our calico successfully! Throughout the whole experience she communicated super well, which is something that we value. We will absolutely recommend and rebook!! Thanks Nicole!
This is our second time booking with Emily, and we’ve loved her so much that we’ve referred friends to her who confirm the same sentiment: She is just fantastic at what she does. Her experience with young children as an elementary school teacher certainly translates to being phenomenal with furry friends! We were concerned that our shy calico would hide, but she was happily making friends within a few visits. Rover reports were detailed (and so sweet!) each day. Cannot continue recommending Emily enough!
