“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”
“Allegra has been walking our mastiff and doing a great job working on leash skills. We got Bixby as a rescue so he’s needed a lot of extra TLC to relearn things at 3-4 years old. Allegra totally gets him.”
About: My name is Jiayi H, go by Joyce. I live in a 2 story house (basement and first floor are dog-friendly) and our house surrounded by park and trails so it will be a lot of running around and playing time if your dogs stay here with me. I have a lovable, friendly 2-year-old Australian Labradoodle, Luca, that I spoil silly as I will with you pup as well. I have puppy training experience, raised Luca from 8 week, and took care of 13 yrs old dog for 3 months. My schedule is flexible so I can usually take on new dogs at a moment’s notice. I love taking pictures and videos of them so you will feel updated and can enjoy your time away knowing that you will have no worries. I’m working from home so most of my time will be caring your pup and Luca. Daycare drop off at 7:00-8:30 am and pickup hours are between 5-6 pm. Any time after 6 pm please let me know as soon as possible, and I can offer boarding or extended hours as well. I have unfenced yard, one dog crate, and playpen for puppies. For daycare and boarding, I will walk your dog 2 times a day, including 20-min walks in the morning and after dinner; will also do 2 potty breaks at noon and bed time.

They will get the time they need. ❤️ Your pet will have the whole downstairs to themselves and lots of play space. I have two friendly cats that are willing to be friends with your pets but they will be upstairs. There are multiple grassy areas to run around in around my condo and trails to walk your pet that will allow them to play in. Treats treats treats❣️
“Alisyn has been wonderful with our dog, Indy! We would highly recommend her for dog walking. She is professional, dependable, and communicative. Most importantly, she made Indy feel very comfortable right away. We greatly appreciate the Rover (Report) Cards and photos after every walk. Thank you, Alisyn!”

I work full time, until 1 PM, at the latest! My schedule is somewhat flexible, based on your needs, but it does vary. Just let me know! :) I have many different types of leashes and harnesses for your dogs walks, I can provide treats, and my fur baby will keep yours company.

Routine can be very important to an animal and I try my best to respect this.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I am a Registered Nurse who is looking to spend some time with pets instead of people for a change! I’ve owned and been around pets for most of my life, and currently own a 2 year old ‘kitten’. As a nurse I am quick on my feet, caring, and dependable. Working the graveyard shift, I look forward to spending time outside with furry friends during the day ☀️ I currently work the graveyard shift, 7pm-7am. I fit pet care into the daytime hours, typically early morning after work. The hours that you are at work are the hours that I am free! As a cardiac RN, you can depend on me to provide excellent and loving care for your pets just as I would my patients. In my home, my cat is rarely alone for more than few hours, and prioritize enrichment time!
“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”
“Jennifer was fantastic! Both dogs loved having her walk them. Can’t thank Jennifer enough for giving the dogs the attention they needed while we were away from home for the day.”
About: Was the owner of a very well loved Labrador, Gauge and recently added Winnie to the family so plenty of experience with dogs. As a family of 6 we have lots of energy and love to help watch your pup. I work part-time outside the home and my spouse works at home full time so they will get plenty of attention during the day. Additionally my 3 kids love animals. I am flexible with what works best for your dog including more frequent walks, using a crate, special diet, or letting them use my home like any other guest.
About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs of all ages, including seniors. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, grooming, medication administration, playtime, and providing calm, emotionally attentive care. I work full time as a store manager, which gives me some flexibility in my schedule. I’m available for morning and evening drop-in visits, and I can often accommodate midday visits during my lunch break. For overnight stays or extended house sitting, I’m very flexible with advance notice and happy to work with you to meet your pet’s needs. I’m also comfortable staying in your home to provide consistent, attentive care while you’re away. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, walk routines, and household rules carefully. I’m very attentive to pets’ emotional needs and body language and always prioritize keeping them calm, comfortable, and safe. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and aim to provide consistent, familiar care to reduce stress. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, enrichment, and companionship, along with regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own.
About: I can't wait to meet your furry family members! As a dog owner for 20 years, I have spent all of that time, plus some.. caring for pups of all shapes and sizes. My extended family has consisted of labs, spaniels, schnauzers and pugs alike - we have always cared for them with love. My pup, ducky is a 5-year-old catahoula couch potato who likes to hike, run, and play. If open to it, I am willing to do socialization and play dates. I trained Ducky from 7 weeks, so I am also experienced with potty training, basic command training, and positive reinforcement. I love all dogs - puppies, seniors, and all in-between! I am an online MBA student, an author/poet, and I work as an in-home aide for an elderly woman, so I have flexibility throughout the day to stop by and care for your animals! I live in an apartment community near walking trails that features a fenced-in dog park. I frequent the Prairie Morraine dog park, walk 4-6 miles daily with my pup, and practice off-leash play in local spots.
“Mik and Augie were the sweetest and very loving with our dogs. I am forever grateful that they were able to stop by to let our dogs out and love on them a bit when we had a long day of work!”

Blackhawk dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jordan is an amazing dog walker! My dog loves him. He is reliable and really considerate of the dog’s walking experience. He gets to know the dog and what the dog needs. Every time my dog returned she was calm, happy and had a big goofy grin on her face. We had difficult weather during the week he walked her and he was great about communicating with me to work around the weather and make sure she had a great walk. I highly recommend him!
Claire was amazing! She was so friendly, and easy to coordinate with, and arrived in a timely manner . You can tell she really loves dogs. Bella was tired after the walk, which was much needed after being home alone today. Would recommend Claire for anyone in the Madison or Sunprarie area with pups in need of a good walk!
We have a great experience as a first-time Rover user! Magan was reliable and punctual, showing up right on time every day for our pup’s 30-minute walks. I especially appreciated the photo updates and detailed potty reports - it gave us peace of mind knowing how everything went while we were away. Would absolutely book with her again.
Michael was nice, attentive, professional and on time. This was the first time we hire someone else to walk our dog Rocoto and he loved Michael. We appreciate his responsiveness and the pictures updates. At the end Rocoto was safe and happy and that gave us a piece of mind. We are looking forward to hire his services again.
I highly recommend Iva for her services. From our first meeting at the in-person Meet & Greet, it was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, Millie, as if she were her own. Iva quickly adapted to Millie's senior dog needs and promptly informed me of any concerns she noticed, keeping me well-informed. Having just moved to the area to start a new full-time job, this was my first experience leaving Millie home alone. Knowing that Iva was coming to walk her twice a day gave me tremendous peace of mind. I appreciated receiving brief reports and photos of their time together during my busy workdays. Iva even took the time to show extra love to my cat, Missy.
