Pet Sitting Columbus Park

About: After several busy months on Rover with almost nonstop bookings, I have had such great stays with dozens of dogs, no accidents in the houses, no bites, no runaways, zero negative experiences. I feel confident that with me, you’re getting a premium stay for your pets for a really good value! I’m incredibly hands on and present with the pets, with them 24/7 and very adaptable with the different needs and personalities. I’m attentive with different care instructions and really shower the animals with positive attention 😊 I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting because it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.

“I’ve booked with Kelsey twice now within the last few months and I would book her services again in a heartbeat! She’s very thorough when she is taking care of my cats, and she provides an adorable Rover card every visit. She is fast to respond to messages, and 100% trustworthy with my cats! Kelsey is awesome! 😸😺”

“Always super communicative and super sweet to our cats (from the pictures she sends)! Julia is also very descriptive in her cards per visit, which is a breath of fresh air.”

“Trustworthy, reliable, a true dog lover — those are just a few ways to describe Christina. She is a true gem! She was always on time and very respectful to our pup and our home. She played with our Corgi, gave lots of belly rubs and even took him on walks. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for your kindness, Christina!”

About: I am a true animal lover at heart! My family always owned dogs growing up, I adopted my own, Bear, in 2017 and my cat Luna (aka Tuna) in 2021. After recently losing Bear unexpectedly, I’m hoping to help heal my heart and get some puppy love by offering walks and drop-in visits to your babies! Prior to adopting Luna, I offered in-home boarding for many years through Rover. Unfortunately she’s not a fan of having other dogs around, otherwise we’d still be offering that service. I also worked at a doggy daycare during college because I loved dogs so much, and I wanted to spend time with them even though I couldn't get one at the time. This obviously provided me with lots of experience in handling multiple dogs! I promise to love your furbaby like my own and provide lots of pictures and updates :) I work remotely on Monday/Thursday/Friday so I’m available for drop-ins or walks during the workday! Would love to arrange regular services over lunch time. As some who believes that pets are family, I promise to do everything in my power to keep your pets safe under my care. When I have hired Rover services myself, I love to receive lots of pictures and updates from my sitters, so I promise to do the same for you!

“Sydney is great! She was able to check in on my two pups multiple times. Sydney always leaves a detailed report and makes sure we get pics of the pups during her visits. We highly recommend her!”

About: 👋🏼 Hello! My name is Krystal and I am a dog lover who has taken care of dogs for 25+ years. I have 2 male poodle mixes, Adobo and Charley.💙 They’re social boys who love company, but respect boundaries if their furry friends don’t want to play. I work from home and walk my dogs 2 times a day (or 1 long walk) and we also enjoy hiking or playing in our fenced-in backyard. Your furry friend will have activity, company, and love while under my care! ☺️ 👩🏻‍💻 Working from home full time gives me the flexibility to easily fit pet care into my day, allowing me to provide regular attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. Please feel free to send a message to check on my availability! 🐕‍🦺 I have a large fenced in yard and friendly dogs, Adobo and Charley, that can keep your furry friend company with play or lounging. I can crate if needed.

About: What sets me apart is real, everyday experience — I'm currently raising two young Dobermans at home, so I understand the exercise, training, and attention that active breeds need. Before them, I have had past dog-sitting work, means I can confidently handle puppies still learning the ropes as well as older dogs who just want a calm, reliable presence. I treat every dog in my care like part of the family. I am currently a medical student so I am able to care for pets throughout the day on weekdays during months where I have more free time. On walks, I will focus on safety and your dog's comfort. I will make sure to check the leashes before heading out, walk at a pace tailored to their energy and age, and remain alert to the surroundings. For home check-ins, I follow your care instructions exactly (feeding, water, meds, routine) and make sure your pet gets attention and affection while you're away. I will send photo updates and treat your home with care and respect, just as I would my own.

“Shiela was great with our shy girl! Very patient, kind, and communicative! Definitely recommend.”

“Nevaeh was great with our shy girl! She was so patient and willing to give our sweet pup time to warm up. I definitely recommend her!”

“This is the first of three bookings with Aidan and Dani and I was really happy, my cat Gerard was friendly to them, perhaps he recognized caring souls. He was well fed and every day we stayed in touch to report about the visits. Definitely recommend them for in visit situations. My cat does not like going elsewhere so having Dani and Aidan coming to my house was a plus.”

About: Hi! My name is Nikita. I'm currently looking to gain more experience with dogs and other animals. I'm trying to gain experience in order to look into becoming a dog trainer. So if you decide to choose me to look after your pets I may practice with your dog! Don't worry I'll be nice, I practice with several different styles of training. While I may not have a lot of professional dog experience, I have been around all sorts of animals my entire life. Whether it's my dog that I currently own or the several dogs that I grew up around in my family. I've always had some sort of animal living around me, and I've always had a passion for caring for them.

About: I’m the designated dog walker for family and friends because I love going on walks, and dogs love coming with me! I grew up with a dog but only have two cats of my own— so I miss having that four-legged friend to go with me! I’d love to take your dog out for a walk/run, or just let them stretch their legs. Cat owners, I’m happy to give your kitties as much or as little space as they need while making sure they feel the love :) I don’t work Fridays or Saturdays, so I am free to help anytime then! Definitely looking to fill my Fridays up with some time outside, and I’d love to take your dog with me - or check in on your cat! I usually walk my parent’s and brother’s dogs (about 80 lbs each) so I know how to handle bigger dogs on leashes who tend to stray from the sidewalk. I can clean up after them, feed them, and give them all the pets! For my cats at home, I love to play with strings or catnip - and can cater to their personality as need be.

About: We have cared for our neighbors dogs and cats, family members and of course our own fur babies. We have fed, with special diets and followed schedules for feeding. We have bottle fed and also of course we give treats. Everyone needs treats! We have bathe puppies and partially groomed them. We love to teach new tricks and take longs walks. We love to play with them and give them the attention they need. The hours listed are the hours that I am home, as well as my teenagers. We're home daily so there will be more than enough love to go around. We have a flexible schedule. We have a large open wide yard for your fur babies to play and do activities. We also have a friendly fur baby to keep your fur baby company.

“Charlotte came to do a meet and greet, and then was very quickly available for a drop in visit! She has great communication and Lenny loves her!”

Danielle P.

“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”

About: I’ve taking care of pets since I was 13. I currently have a blind senior german shepherd, and guide him when needed, giving him lots of treats and love. I also have a 1 year puppy and give her frequent time out. I’m planning on working weekends whenever needed to play with doggies and give them the care they need! I can feed them, give medicine, and care for blind and senior dogs. I put my dogs before anything and make sure they have everything they need. Treats, water, food, play time, medicine, supplements, nap time and love.

“Cindy was wonderful! I was in dyer need of 2 drop-in visits for a Friday and Saturday and I found Cindy on a Wednesday afternoon. She came and did a meet & greet right away that night and I felt instantly at ease with this being my first Rover.com experience. My dogs liked her without a problem and she communicated great when dropping in to take them out and feed them. Thank you again!!!”

Joel H.

“Cathy is OUTSTANDING! She always sent photos of our cats and gave us detailed updates about our pets and our home while we were away. We are extremely happy with her service and I'm sure we'll hire her again in the future.”

About: Hello! 🐶🐱 I have experience caring for all types of animals from a very young age. Over the years, I have cared for roosters, chickens, ducks, rabbits, dogs, kittens, and goats 🐔🦆🐰🐕🐈🐐. I truly enjoy spending time with animals playing with them, taking them on walks, and providing loving care such as bathing and daily attention. I began working professionally as a pet caregiver at the age of 20, offering my services to neighbors, friends, and family 🤍. I strongly believe that animals are incredibly intelligent, sensitive, and full of love. This work has given me many beautiful and meaningful experiences, all thanks to the wonderful pets that have come into my life 🐾✨ I recently arrived in the country and have been living in Milwaukee for a little over a year 🇺🇸🏙️ a beautiful city that I truly enjoy. I am currently looking for a part time job that allows me to balance my time between my studies and my work as a body piercing artist 💎✨. At the same time, I am seeking opportunities to do what I genuinely love and feel passionate about: caring for pets 🐶🐱. I enjoy walking them, providing attentive care, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved 🐾💖. Working with animals brings me great joy, and I am committed to offering responsible, compassionate, and reliable care. I provide loving and attentive care both in my home and in my client’s home 🏡🐶. I live near a park, which allows me to take dogs on fun and safe walks, playtime, and exercise outdoors 🌳🦴. At home, I have a variety of toys and engaging activities to keep pets mentally stimulated and happy 🧸✨. I always follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like family 🐾💖.
