“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”
“Manu is great with our dog, she takes her on walks by the water and plays with her. My dog gets SO excited when we pull up to Manu’s house because she knows she’s about to have a fun day!”

“5 stars! Can’t sing Julie enough praises! I feel so absolutely at ease while my Cookie is in Julie’s care. Thank you for being a safe and comfortable place for our pup.”


“Doug had a wonderful time at Kayla's house. They took amazing care of him and sent a lot of pictures. He must have played a lot because he was so tired when he got home. We will absolutely use her again!”

About: I've had dogs ever since I was a little kid and would do anything for them. I've also worked with dogs for the past 2 years. I have a Rat Terrier of my own and will make sure to treat your dog like they're my own. I’m used to all kinds of dogs whether it be age, energy level, or condition as I’ve had a mix of all at my job and growing up! I'm a student with lots of breaks between my classes meaning I’m usually only gone for less than two hours and I have lots of free time on the weekends. Max I’ll be gone is four hours, but that rarely happens. My dog is very friendly and energetic, but also knows when a dog doesn’t want to play. She’s very silly and loves to sleep! I live near the lake and can take your dog out often as there’s a nice trail along the lake and campus is pedestrian friendly. I live in an apartment, so I’m looking to host dogs who are comfortable in a quieter environment. Since I share walls with neighbors, I’m best suited for dogs who aren’t big barkers. That being said, I love dogs with a personality! A little energy and playfulness is totally welcome, I just ask that barking is kept to a minimum. Dogs are allowed to free roam around the apartment whether I’m with them or gone. If your puppy has energy to burn but knows when to settle down, we’ll get along great! In your own home I will take on any type of dog with any energy level! I will make sure to care for your dog while you are away just as you care for them while you’re in your house. A dogs safety and their comfort are a top priority for me! I also have a fenced in patio with dog grass if your pup needs a quick potty break!
“Thank you for Max's wonderful care the first time. We will definitely use your service again. I recommend this caregiver because she's very attentive and has been sending me photos of every moment of his care. Thank you again.”

“Emily took great care of our pup, Toby! He is 10 weeks old and she was capable of managing the extra needs of a young puppy. Emily was very communicative and responsive to messages. We would send our pup to be cared for by her again!”

“My little Westie loves Suellen and her two sweet dogs. They treat her like one of their own. It's great for me to be able to drop her off for the day, knowing she'll have fun and be safe.”


About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, my apartment is very dog-friendly, with many residents having pets and there are plenty of amenities available, whether walking around the neighborhood on leash or playing in the apartment’s fenced in dog run, that will give your pet what it needs. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.
“Yecid was very attentive to my dog's care. He followed Max's feeding instructions and kept me informed and sent me photos throughout the day. I truly recommend this sitter. Thank you for your services, which I will use in the future.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, so I understand the different needs of every animal. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a bit more care and attention, I know how to adapt. Whether it's providing daily walks, offering training, or simply offering companionship, I ensure every pet feels comfortable and loved. I believe in treating each pet as an individual, providing the right care for their unique personality, and making sure they feel safe and happy in your absence. As a student, my schedule is very flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I don’t have classes on Mondays or Fridays, and during the week I have breaks between classes—perfect for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. I also spend most evenings and nights at home, which makes boarding a great fit for me. I love having animals around and giving them the time, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure the space is safe, calm, and comfortable. For dogs, I can easily crate them if needed and always keep a leash on hand for safety during walks and potty breaks. I follow their routine closely to help them feel at home. For cats, I have plenty of toys and love spending time playing, feeding, and giving them the quiet companionship they enjoy during visits.
About: I have taken care of dogs from all age groups. Whether a senior dog who needs frequent bathroom breaks or a puppy who wants lots of attention and reinforcement, I love all of them. Besides, being a tennis player means I gotta put my unlimited supply of balls to use:) I work from home three days a week. If our furry guest prefers lots of attention or frequent bathroom breaks, it would be a perfect match. I only take in one dog a time. There won’t be other pets at home. There’s a dog run in my apartment complex. I also live within walking distance of a dog park.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I used to be around six dogs at a time, from small to large breeds. I’ve worked to train 2 different dogs in the last 6 months and currently have my own 2 puppies. I’m currently working part time 2 days a week. I don’t schedule dogs those days; I only accept pets on my days off, ensuring that I will have plenty of time to spend with your loved one. I can easily crate, leash up, and walk dogs as needed. I will work on some skills if wanted, ensuring some trust and respectful relationship. I’ll love your pups like they are my own!
About: Since I was little I’ve taken care of many pets! People have relied on me when out of town many times for a puppy and older dogs. I’ve bathed dogs, cut their hair, given medicine, etc.. I am a student but in my free time i love to take care of and hangout with peoples animals! I do like hourly rate better than day pay rate as well but am open to either. I will respect your home and pet. I will play with them outside if they have a yard and make sure they feel loved. I will always be responsible and take great care of them.

“This was our first time with Luke. He was a terrific dog sitter! He took time to find out about Skye's history and special needs, to introduce her carefully to the two other dogs in his care, and to communicate promptly with me. The environment was calm, clean and dog-friendly. I was so happy to see pictures of Skye and thear that she was adjusting well. I hope to have Skye with Luke again in the near future.”
Capitol dog parents share their Rover experiences
Manu is a wonderful and caring animal whisperer. We needed someone to watch our sweet lab mix, Benny, with little notice so we had to forgo a meet and greet but no doubts whatsoever based on her profile. Manu was very responsive and extremely tentative to Benny who is recovering from Giardia. She sent many photos and sealed the visit off with a very cute holiday video of Benny's stay. Benny came home with a new bandana and a new BFF. She is a warm, kind person that quickly became a #1 pick for us to book again. 12/10

Jackie is a great sitter! She is very communicative, and I appreciated that she introduced Cleo to her dogs one at a time, and in an intentional way (in the yard first). She's clearly knowledgeable about dog behavior and best practices. We'll definitely use her again!
