“Gianina took really good care of our dog Mia during our week long vacation. Mia fit right in with her dogs golden retrievers and her 2 children loved her too. She kept us informed with daily postings of her which we looked forward too. Thank you for taking such good care of our dog. I would highly recommend her.”
“Millie loved her time with Doreen! She sent lots of pictures and kept us up to date the whole time we were gone! Would definitely come back to Doreen! Highly Recommend”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Maria took excellent care of my little guy. He must have played a lot as he slept the entire next day. Pictures and video were greatly appreciated, too.”
“I have used Monique twice now to set a pretty energetic little dog. She has been so responsive, so accommodating, and so caring for my sweet little pup. I love that she sends pictures and updates about how my pet was acclimating to the new setting. Highly trust and recommend Monique and I can’t wait to use her again!”
“I can not say enough about the outstanding care our dog received from Scott and Ashley. We received frequent updates and messages to keep us up to date. We are so very grateful that they invited our dog into their home.”
“Angela kept our senior dog over a long weekend while we were out of town. She was super attentive and sent lots of pictures, putting our mind at ease. She clearly loves dogs and we knew our pup was in loving hands! I would definitely use her again and recommend her without any hesitation!”
“We have used Yolanda many times and we are so grateful to have found a sweet and caring sitter, she and her family take great care of our fur baby. We always get pictures and messages letting us know how she is doing and we don’t worry because Kaya is in great hands.”
“Katy and DJ do a great job! They give great care towards our dog and do a really good job communicating and providing updates. Denali loves going to their house and starts crying (in excitement) when we turn the corner! Thank you for loving our dog and taking such good care of her!”
“Cheryl was great with our dog Ellie and our cats! You could tell she really cared about our animals and took the stress of leaving them alone off of our plates. We will book with her again!”
“Sherry was so fantastic!! She took such great care of our girl Mona for the weekend, and provided lots of photos and updates. :) we would absolutely book with her again.”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Chase and Coco! She kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and loved while I was away. I had no issues or problems at all. I truly appreciate the excellent care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”
“Paul did an amazing job watching our pup! He "warned' us that he would try to exceed our expectations, and no question he absolutely did. We loved all the updates with photos, and the numerous offsite visits to parks was so fun to see. So comforting while we were such a long distance away. We'd recommend Paul to anyone!”
“This was our first time using Rover and the first time our dog stayed with a sitter and we had a wonderful experience. Jenifer did an excellent job caring for Ellie and seemed attentive to her needs. It is difficult to leave your pet for a week, but also reassuring to know they are in good hands while you are gone. We will definitely use Jenifer again in the future.”
“Heather was the best ! Boarding Zoe with Heather & her family at their wonderful home was a perfect match for me (& Zoe!) Heather is very organized & prepared to deal with hosting a dog's individual behavior and adapting to their routine for the best results. Heather - having her own dog and another daycare dog to keep company & play with Zoe - was a perfect situation. She was very flexible with my drop-off & pick-up schedule which made all my travel arrangements "a breeze" with no worries. I couldn't be more pleased & recommend Heather without any hesitation. I hope my future travel plans will allow a repeat overnight for Zoe with Heather again !”
“Mary and Family took great care of Sisi for her overnight. It was her first stay-over with them. I feel comfortable that she was well-cared for and have no reservations about leaving her with them.”
“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”
“Gilian was super flexible with drop off and pickup. We loved getting daily updates that included pictures and details about her activity and food/water intake. Gilian definitely made us feel so relieved during our time away because we knew she was in good hands and being cared for in a comfortable home, surrounded by other doggy playmates. Thanks, Gilian!”

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.
86% of sitters in Colgate 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 Colgate 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 Colgate.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Colgate 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.
