About: My family and I had a dog of our own for about 13 years during my childhood, allowing me to gain experience in feeding, training, and walking dogs. Now that she has sadly passed away, I would love to give other pets the same love I am no longer able to give to my own pet. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to smother your pets with my love! Late mornings and early afternoons are the times that typically work best for me, but I am flexible and willing to try anything! I will only allow pets that are fine being outside because my house does not allow pets indoors. I have a large yard surrounded by fields in a rural area where pets are free to roam in sight as long as they’re well-trained.
About: I have been an emergency and critical care veterinary technician for 10 years so I’m very comfortable with senior pets or pets with medical needs. I work relief at two pet hospitals and have 3 children so no 2 days looks alike for me and that’s how I like it. I love to be outdoors and love finding new places to walk and explore with my little crew. I live in the country so my backyard includes trials, fields, and woods to play in. I also love to travel so I know how stressful it is to leave your pup with someone else so I’ll be sure to send lots of pictures and as many updates as you’d like! I work relief/per diem at multiple emergency pet hospitals and I have 3 kids so not one single day looks like the next. My schedule is set about 2 months in advance so just ask about days you need! I have a very low key beagle and 3 small children that are good with dogs. We live in the county so there is lots of room and trails to explore.
“Melissa continues to impress us with her thoughtful care of our dog. She sends great updates from her visits to keep us in the loop as to what is going on while we aren’t around. She’s the best!”
About: I love taking care of all different kinds of pets, I love working with pets that have unique personalities. There is still so many breeds of both dogs and cats that I would love to be able to take care of. I am currently working part-time at a pet boarding/ daycare facility and still going to school. I still seem to have time that I feel as if I am wasting and need something to fill that void. In my clients home I will try to stick to the instructions that they give me when I am caring for their pet. I will also do anything extra depending on the pet and the different needs that they may have. (Ex. If they are a senior pet or a puppy)
“Trusting someone to come into your home and care for your animals is never easy… unless you get the chance to book Melissa. She sent photos and messages and went above and beyond. 10/10 totally recommend.”
“I was so anxious leaving my two cats while on a two week trip abroad - I’d never been away from them so far or for so long. It took a couple of days, but then they warmed right up to Jeanne. She had tuned into what they needed and provided consistent care - along with great updates and photos from each visit for me - allowing me to focus on my trip. When I returned, I found two happy, well-adjusted cats waiting for me. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands with Jeanne!”
“Sara has been a blessing for my cat and I. My cat used to be very anxious when I come home due my work hours; however, since having Sara's drop-ins she is very calm, sweet and playful when I come home-!!. Sara is very sweet and has a calm demeanor. She follows the given instructions , responds to messages on time, send you awesome pictures and videos and you can tell she tries to take care of your pet like one of her own. I would highly recommend her!!”
“Anne was wonderful with my cat, Lia. My cat seemed to enjoy the visits and extra attention. Anne was also great with communication and sending photos of what Lia was up to. Will definitely reach out to Anne in the future when needed!”
“Allison has come 2 times now to take care of our 4 pets. She has been amazing! I have anxiety about leaving my animals and I feel at ease while she is there. She leaves such great detailed information about the visits and she takes great care in watching our animals. I am hoping she is always around to watch our animals!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, cows etc since I was little. I worked at the Crivitz Countryside Veterinary Clinic for 5 years right out of high school. I want to help others with their pets needs just as I would want the help in return. I live in Shawano, but work in Howard/Green Bay Mon-Friday. I’m able to take care of pet needs in either location, anywhere in between, or slightly past those points! 😊❤️ On weekends I have more availability to do multiple drop in visits and more frequent dog walks. Daycare/Boarding is convenient for nonstop snuggles, chit chats, fetch, walks, treats, and a watchful eye on your fur babies. 10 acres with a pond/river wooded backyard. I have one dog who is high energy, but independent enough to do her own thing. She loves to play fetch, walk the trails in the woods, and car rides. I will always introduce my dog to yours through a baby gate, once they get smells/intro’s over with I like to have them meet outside for a potty break, this method takes the protective instincts away. Guards come down. A little trick I learned from working at the Vet Clinic that hasn’t let me down yet. I can keep them separate from one another also if you wish/request. Though my dog is a fixed/spayed female. I have a split level 4 bedroom house that allows a lot of space in the two living room areas in case your pet prefers their own space to eat/protective. I live 8 min from the Shawano dog park and less than 5 min from the dog beach.
About: We love to watch pets grow and learn! We operated a state-licensed in-home daycare for children for 10 years. Now, our family enjoys hosting dogs in our home! We are accommodating and have many repeat guests. Our regular daycare dogs are best friends. We enjoy meeting new pet families. *WE WILL SEND PICTURES, VIDEOS, AND RESPOND AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE TO ANY MESSAGES YOU SEND* **No children are present currently. ** Due to allergies, hypoallergenic pets preferred** Recently we have switched things up. My Husband Paul, is home full-time. I work part-time. I have the luxury of being home in the middle of the day. We have plenty of love and attention to give. My husband and adult children also love dogs, we work as a team. My dogs are rarely to never, without an adult. We have two training periods per day with our dogs and include any dogs that are here as well. Our home is VERY PUPPY PROOF, as we have had the joy of raising puppies in our home recently. My spots fill up quickly so plan ahead. I can’t wait to meet your dogs! Shelby, Paul and Alyssa. I have two friendly Bernedoodles who will gladly run the backyard with your pups! They prefer multiple short visits to the backyard and one or two long play sessions. We go out with the dogs and PLAY WITH THEM. I can keep smaller breeds entirely separated from larger dogs if preferred. However, my dogs are very gentle with small dogs. We rarely leave our babies home alone. We do have XL crates available to keep them safe if they have a short time alone due to an emergency. Guests have the privilege of supervised, free-roaming access to the dog-friendly/dog-proofed main level of the house. We can separate dogs if necessary with walk-through gates. This is something we do during meet and greets, but rarely during an actual stay. I can accommodate eating preferences. Water is available in multiple rooms. I specialize in puppy care and will work on training your dog as well while in my care. I do not accept aggressive or reactive dogs. I require proof of vaccination and flea and tick prevention.
About: I've had dogs my entire life they've always been more like siblings to me than pets. Right now I have an Australian Shepherd and a German Shepard, I love them very much but now that I've moved out of my parents house I don't see them every single day and im missing some pet love!! I am a caregiver to the elderly and disabled as well but love giving care to any and all in need!! Very easy to work with. Shoot me a text. 😉 Caregiver all around 💞 I love being of service and giving care whether it be humans or animals, I enjoy what I do. Ask me more :) I do not board animals at this time due to having my own kitten, she is being introduced to other pets but is not yet fully comfortable
“Carly did a great job looking after Murphy. Murphy had orthopedic surgery in February and now possibly another surgery to the other leg. She is on pain medications to keep her pain controlled and calm. Carly was on time twice a day to feed and medicate Murphy for pain and then stayed 30 minutes for ear rubs / reassurance. Carly also notified me that some boards were damaged on my back fence when a storm rolled through. I was able to get someone to quickly repair the fence while I was still out of town. I'm a first time user of Rover and will definitely use it again! Thanks!”
About: I have worked with numerous animals since I was 5 years old. I have owned chickens, rabbits, horses, dogs, and cats my entire life. I am a 4-H leader where I teach children how to train dogs and I help them show and prepare their animals at fair. I also show my own animals at the fair. Additionally, I have pet sat for numerous family members over the years as well as friends. I will always be there for your pet and I will make sure they are well taken care of and loved just like they are my own. I am a teacher who is currently on summer break. So my schedule is pretty open during the summer and I have a lot of availability. During the school year, most of my weekends are free as well as when we have breaks. I am flexible and willing to make things work for you! I live on a little hobby farm with my husband. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats who are very friendly. I have everything needed in my home to take care of a dog including a kennel if needed as well as tie outs. We have a lake that is 5 minutes from our house and if your dog loves to swim, I would be happy to take them. I take my dogs all over in the summer and I would make sure your pet gets a lot of attention and exercise as well. Additionally, we have a huge barn and fenced in pasture as well as rabbit hutches in the barn and a chicken coop! Whatever animal you have they can be comfortable at my property. Additionally, if you feel better about your animal staying at home, I am happy to accommodate to that as well.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was little. I’ve owned many pets and many people have relied on me to care for their pets and even take them for walks when needed. I always care for my clients pets as my own! My job is very flexible and not long hours so I am home everyday almost all day and have a lot of free time to care for pets needing a sitter. I always care for my clients pets needs and pay close attention. I make sure the pets receive all the care and love they need while their owner is away! I can crate the animals if needed as well as any other needs they need help with.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life ever since I can remember. All shapes and sizes, all ages. Whatever is needed will be provided and then some. I hope I can be of service and can’t wait to help! My schedule is very flexible. I’m able to be wherever is needed. Whatever is best for your prt and your family is what will be given. Individualized and personalized care is my top priority. I’m very eager to learn how I can be of service to your pet and families needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets for a couple of years. I have dog sat for many different kinds of dogs and have also taken care of cats before. I enjoy dog walking as well. I have two dogs at home and love playing with them and getting their energy out. I currently am in school full time and have a part time job, but am looking to be able to care for pets or provide other services in my free time. I will be out of the green bay area mondays and tuesdays for school, but am around most of the week otherwise! I will make sure that the animals are comfortable and get the best care that they can.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
