About: I have been taking care of dogs since i was 15 and adopted a dog from a shelter with my parents. 3 years ago I brought home a sassy and energetic corgi, and have been training him since he was 8 years old. I have always loved animals no matter how big or small and will give so much love to any animal I see. I currently work full time, so I am available after 4 pm for walks or drop in visits, but I have a pup of my own to tend to at night. On the weekends I am available for overnights, walks, etc. I have a flexible schedule and a loving fiance that is more than able to watch my pup so I can care for yours. My corgi is an only child and loves to keep it that way, so I would be giving your animal their own attention in your own home. Due to having a rambunctious corgi, I am familiar with safety while walking your pet, and will give them all the love and attention in the comfort of their own home.
“Donna did ann excellent job watching our two kitties for a week while we were away. She is super communicative and sends photos from each visit. We had peace of mind while on vacation knowing Donna was taking care of our fur babies!”
About: I work as an ICU RN and even though this entails humans, I extend my knowledge to animals. It allows me to identify and problem solve health and behavioral issues, with the tools to create solutions. I genuinely offer compassion to all animals, not just cats/dogs. I give my time, respect and patience. I have taken care of all kinds of pets; different species, breeds, sizes, temperaments, and needs, ever since I was a child. My childhood home was always filled with an abundance of animals (& also reptiles, aquatic life and arachnids). I look forward to meeting your extended member of the family! :D The perk of being a RN is that I only 3 days a week. This leaves me extra time during the week for other activities. I am an animal lover, so what better way to fill a few hours of time than with more furry friends! I will not be doing boarding at my own home. I will however treat your home with respect and follow guideline for providing the best care for your fur baby!
“Kelly goes above and beyond when she checks in our pets. She obviously cares about what she does and we trust her to take care of our pup in our home. She even helped out with our chickens which I didn't even ask for. She's our go to when we get away from home for a weekend.”
About: I’m a passionate dog lover who believes pets are family. As a dog owner for over four years, I understand the care, attention, and love our furry friends need every day. Whether you need help with walks or companionship for your pet, I’m committed to providing reliable and caring support. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities and look forward to helping keep your pet happy, safe, and active! While I am looking for a new full time job, I have a lot of availability for anyone needing some help. Would be open to daily walks or as needed. I would care for any pet like they are my own! I am extremely protective of my dog and would only want the best for her and I would offer the same level of care for your pet, too!
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up with dogs, which taught me the importance of routine, exercise, and lots of love. Now I’m a proud cat owner of two, so I also understand how to care for more independent (but equally lovable!) pets. Whether your pet loves to play or just needs a calm, reassuring presence, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel at home. I work full time at UW Madison during regular business hours between 7:30a and 4:30p. I have a flexible schedule where I work from home twice weekly and at work 3 days. I care for your pets and your home as if it were my own. I treat the pets with the upmost love and care, and respect your home and privacy. I play with the pets if they are interested, and leave them be if not interested. Pets have bodily autonomy and I respect that. I’ll clean up a mess if I find one, and I’d let you know immediately if there’s an issue.
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was little, between dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals such as dairy cows, pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I can take care of pets at any time of day or night, and I can walk dogs after 4 pm. Tuesday & Thursday, I do have class from 7-10 am. I have a fence for my pets, we play with toys, and we go on walks (depending on the weather). My dog will sleep where she is most comfortable and she always goes to the bathroom on time.
About: I grew up with adopted dogs and cats in the Midwest! My chore list included pet care from as young as I can remember. My brother and I watched friends and neighbors animals until we both moved out. I love getting to meet new pets and interact with their fun quirks. I love helping people with their pets so I can ensure they have a familiar face and one on one care compared to boarding pets during a stressful time for them. I am comfortable with all pet care. Im a full time flight crew member, so I know my schedule a month in advance and have days off at a time. My schedule is very flexible. I will ensure the clients home is respected like my own. As long as I’m informed on where the supplies and pets favorite toys are I will be set!

About: I’ve always been a dog lover, growing up with a Pitbull Terrier, and I've had experience taking care of dogs of all sizes. Over the years, I’ve helped out friends and family with everything from puppy care to looking after older dogs, whether it’s at my place or theirs. I’m comfortable with both big and small dogs, and I’m happy to provide whatever your pet needs—whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra attention. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared. I do have a dog of my own, Dewey. He’s a very sweet boy and loves meeting and playing with new friends of all sizes and ages. He’s a good listener, so he knows how to respect other’s boundaries. I do have a full-time job but am available most weekends. I do have some flexibility during weekdays when I work from home, so I will always try my best to work with your schedule. My current routine with Dewey is 3-4 walks, including at least 30 minutes of playtime at the fenced play area or a long walk. Dewey makes great company for your pup and does not mind sharing his toys. He loves being outdoors and free, so I try to give him as much playtime as possible, and will do the same with yours. A tired pup is a happy one!
“Alliyah watched our 15 y/o dog for 12 days while we were on spring break. She was easy to schedule with and communicative. Georgie seemed to really enjoy her visits and we recommend her!”
About: I grew up with five dogs. I worked at a dog daycare for the past 6 months. While I worked there, I gave them enrichment, affection, cleaned up poop from the yards, and supervised dogs to make sure they played safely. I am free any time on the weekends. I will be getting a new job so I'm not 100% sure what my weekday hours are going to be like as of right now. I will be taking care of clients' pets in their own home or yard because we live in an apartment and also have three cats.
About: I grew up around pets and always loved them. All through undergrad and graduate school, I have been a pet sitter and house sitter. Once I was done and could finally get a pet of my own, I got one frenchie… and the other followed just a few short months later. My puppies are my whole world, and they LOVE having new friends! I work full-time from home, and have a fenced backyard! Our house gets lots of natural light which means sunny naps indoors when it’s chilly. I take our pups on at least one long walk a day, and plenty of playtime inside and outside. I have a fenced yard and lots of open space in the home. My two Frenchies LOVE all dogs - for playing and snuggling during the day. I love hanging out on the couch with our pups and relaxing, going for nice walks when weather permits, and lots of play with toys and balls!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life! From chihuahuas to border collies, I’ve had experience raising and taking care of all sizes of animal. I have a pretty open availability, so I would be able to give your animals the utmost attention when needed! Weekends are just as good for me as the weekdays! Having had animals my whole life, I understand how to maintain a clean environment while working with them. I am perfectly fine and comfortable with cleaning up after your animals if need be.
About: Hi! I am a loving and dedicated dog Mom. My Yorkies have passed on now but they became like my children. I understand the need to have reliable, safe, and loving pet care. If you're looking for a weekend away or a couple of days during the week, I am available. From time to time I also sit with my grand dog Maybelle. She is my daughter's Chihuahua. She feels loved and safe in my care. If your dog is on medication, that is fine also. I can also take care of your home at the same time. There are many factors to consider in the choice of a companion.. My hope is that you are comfortable leaving your baby in my care. Thanks for reading! I would love to take care of your pets in your home on weekends as well as weekday evenings. I am currently living in a no pets apartment in Madison. I am a respectful person who looks forward to building trust with you and your beloved pets. I believe a calm and loving environment is also important.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cross Plains
Peyton has cared for our dogs on two separate occasions, and we have been extremely happy with her services both times. She is punctual, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We really appreciate the care and attention she gives our dogs, and it’s reassuring to know they’re in such good hands when we’re away. Peyton provides excellent communication and always follows through on what she says she’ll do. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter!
Peyton did an amazing job caring for Charlie & Lloyd while we were away. She stopped by our home twice, took them out, fed them, and spent time playing with them. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We’re very happy with her service and highly recommend her.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cross Plains stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cross Plains choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cross Plains with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
