About: I have been dog sitting for over 20 years. Love dogs, and helping them have great experiences. I foster dogs, and volunteer at animal care clinics. I have two of my own pups, and a foster dog. I have schedule flexibility to provide care in your home, and there is a possibly of care in my home if all dogs get along. I have a fenced in potty area, and a huge yard. I strongly believe in positive training, positive reinforcement - I’ve taken training classes with my pups and foster pups in positive training methods and use that with all the dogs I engage with.

About: Have owned dogs all my life. Have had two huskies and one black lab. I think I can handle a husky I can handle anything ! All the time. Some weekends may be gone available all week long. Can be there whenever owner needs me to be. Work great with communication. I love being outdoors and going for walks so having a friend (the dog) will be fun. I have no problem walking dogs of any size.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for many years, and I truly see them as part of the family. I’m taking a dog groomer certification course, which has given me hands-on experience handling dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I am very comfortable reading a dog’s body language, recognizing when they’re nervous or uncomfortable, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve also helped in a dog daycare environment, where I gained experience caring for multiple dogs with different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for dogs at all stages of life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. My experience even includes assisting with a dog giving birth and helping care for newborn puppies. I understand how much attention and specialized care dogs can need during different stages of life. I’m comfortable following individual feeding, potty, medication, exercise, grooming, and daily care routines. I’m happy to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away and give them plenty of playtime, enrichment, affection, and cuddles. My goal is to provide the same loving, attentive care I’d want for my own dog—and to make sure you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I currently work a morning job 3 days a week until about noon, and I work afternoons mostly from home. i also live with multiple people who also can provide excellent care if I am away. My mother is also a Rover pet sitter :). We have our home sectioned off into 3 spots. a transition area for when your pet arrives. That leads into the living room where your pet is welcome on all furniture, plenty of space to play, and access to our fenced back yard. If your dog needs time to adjust to a new space this is a great option for them. We also have 2 bernedoodles, if your pet is comfortable then they are welcome into the the main space of the house with our dogs. They are gentle giants.
“This family did an amazing job watching our dogs while we were on vacation! They sent nightly recaps of their day with many pictures and were great at communicating with anything they needed or any questions we had. Highly recommend ? they quickly made us feel at ease having our dogs stay with them, I’d 100% book with them again in the future!”
“I was a bit nervous to leave my puppy with people I didn't know, so we were able to meet up at a dog park first, to make sure their dog got along with mine. I got pictures throughout her over night stay and got my pup back super tired from all the play time she got in! Very happy with our experience!”
“Kristina is so great with our puppy, Olive! We were nervous about leaving Olive with someone new since she’s still pretty young, but right away we felt at ease with Kristina and it was evident that Olive absolutely adored her! We’ve now booked Kristina twice and will continue to do so - our pup loves playing at Kristina’s and comes home tired and happy!”
“We had a great experience with Matthew! He took great care of our dog while we were away, sent photo updates and had great communication. Pickup and dropoff was when he said and when so smooth! Would love to send our pup with him again!!”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Anston can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Anston home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Anston.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Anston sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
