“Bridget was great and Vanessa loved her. I appreciated the daily updates with videos & photos. It was our first time trying in home care while we were away and we are very pleased with Bridget as our choice. We will definitely rebook when we go away in the future.”
“We give Melissa our HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! She was a pet sitter for us for 6 days/5 nights! We just moved to the area and needed to find a responsible person to take care of our dog while we were out of town. Melissa was super responsive, highly professional and extremely trustworthy. Our pet has a significant medical condition and Melissa kept us updated and was extremely comfortable handling any special needs. She left our home in better condition that we left it. She went above and beyond to take care of our dog and we so appreciated it! We have used many pet sitters in the past, but Melissa was a step above all others!”
“Erin was amazing!! She sent me pics during the day of the adventures her and my pup did. I will definitely reach out to her when we need somone to watch Sylvee again!”
“Fawn did a great job with Marlo while we were away. She is very responsive to my communication and reached out on the first day with an detailed update. Marlo was happy around her and will definitely hire her again.”
About: I have cared for many pets big and small and some strange to others. Personally I have owned rats, birds, a bunny, a dog, and now a cat! I always reseach extensively on how to care for a specific pet to make sure to give them the best life possible and make sure everything is good with vet care. At this moment I only work part time as a face painter for parties. I spend most of my days with my own cats, one of which I have been training to be a therapy cat! I love caring for animals and helping them so I thought I would offer my services to who may need them. I will be asking alot of questions and like to know if your pet has a schedule they like to follow. I would hate to stress them out with more as a change of schedule plus a stranger in their home could be scary for them. I am also very respectful of boundaries your pet may have and am more understanding if a pet gets sick or scratches me due to personal space issues.
“Jacob was absolutely fantastic with my two dogs! He’s super friendly, extremely communicative, and treated my pups like they were his own family. They loved spending time with him, and I had total peace of mind the entire time. I couldn’t recommend him more!”
“Nicole was fantastic with our dog Evie! She took great care of her and made her feel comfortable even during the storms! We loved getting photos and videos of our pup! We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be reaching out for future needs! 😊”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years, including my own dogs and pets for other families. I’ve done everything from quick drop-in visits and walks to staying with pets for several days while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with different routines and can also give oral medication when needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention and that their normal routine stays as consistent as possible. My work schedule varies from week to week, so my availability depends on the dates requested. I only accept bookings that work well with my schedule and your pet’s needs. Before booking, I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine, how long they are comfortable being left alone, and any specific care they need so we can make sure I’m a good fit. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I carefully follow instructions for feeding, walks, medication, and anything else your pet may need. I respect your home, keep things clean, and make your pet’s safety a priority. I also send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and being well cared for.
“Michelle was awesome! Communicated very well with us the if there were questions and send us updates with pictures! We truly appreciated this as we could see how well cared and loved our Louie was. As a family, we are very excited to have found Michelle as she gave us a piece of mind when we were gone. Thank you Michelle Louie and us are looking forward to continue working with you 🐾🥳💕🙏”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog Walter received. Alex was incredibly attentive, responsible and kept us updated with great communication throughout her two night stay. Walter absolutely loved her and so did we. It’s such a relief to know he was in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi, I'm Chris, and I have had dogs and cats on and off all my life. I also have experience watching and caring for family members' pets. I am looking forward to caring for your pet! I am retired and I am available most times of the day and most days of the week. My preference is after 8 am and not after 8 pm. I will respect the client's home and take excellent care of your pets. I am willing to take your pets for a walk or play with them and keep them company based on the pet's needs. I can provide oral medication and feeding, if needed. Would prefer to have a meet-and-greet for dogs in advance.
“Eleanor went above and beyond! She house sat for us and watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She sent plenty of pictures of all the snuggles and play times they were getting. She included confirmation that their daily routines were done and left our house just as clean if not cleaner than when we left. Her communication was amazing and eased our worries about leaving our fur babies. We highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for many years, and I truly see them as part of the family. I’m taking a dog groomer certification course, which has given me hands-on experience handling dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I am very comfortable reading a dog’s body language, recognizing when they’re nervous or uncomfortable, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve also helped in a dog daycare environment, where I gained experience caring for multiple dogs with different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for dogs at all stages of life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. My experience even includes assisting with a dog giving birth and helping care for newborn puppies. I understand how much attention and specialized care dogs can need during different stages of life. I’m comfortable following individual feeding, potty, medication, exercise, grooming, and daily care routines. I’m happy to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away and give them plenty of playtime, enrichment, affection, and cuddles. My goal is to provide the same loving, attentive care I’d want for my own dog—and to make sure you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I currently work a morning job 3 days a week until about noon, and I work afternoons mostly from home. i also live with multiple people who also can provide excellent care if I am away. My mother is also a Rover pet sitter :). We have our home sectioned off into 3 spots. a transition area for when your pet arrives. That leads into the living room where your pet is welcome on all furniture, plenty of space to play, and access to our fenced back yard. If your dog needs time to adjust to a new space this is a great option for them. We also have 2 bernedoodles, if your pet is comfortable then they are welcome into the the main space of the house with our dogs. They are gentle giants.
“We were very happy with Zalexis' services. She cared for our cat and provided house sitting for 5 days while we were out of town. She was always quick to respond to messages and sent pictures and progress reports every day. When she sent a pic of our cat sitting in her lap, I knew she had serious cat whisperer skills because our cat won't sit in just anyone's lap! ? The house looked great when we returned and our cat seemed happy and content. It made being away so much easier, knowing our cat was being well cared for. We highly recommend Zalexis' services and will most certainly hire her again!”
“Christina did wonderful taking care of our dog Kingsley. Sent picture updates and walked him and played with him as well. Our house was cleaner when we returned than it was when we left. Will definitely use again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in De Pere is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - De Pere
Bridget took amazing care of our dogs while we were on a weeklong trip. One of our dogs (River) got sick while we were away and Bridget took such amazing care of her until we could get home. She treated River like she was her own dog, which we are so incredibly grateful for. She even stayed extra late so River wouldn’t be alone. We were so grateful she was there for both dogs, but especially River! We will most certainly request Bridget again when we travel.
Miles watched our dog, Rey, during our wedding, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to trust with him. It definitely wasn't a typical Rover booking, but he was flexible, dependable, and made the entire experience stress free for us. He spent the afternoon making sure Rey was comfortable, keeping his water bowl full, taking him on walks whenever he got restless, and staying with him throughout the ceremony and photos. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about Rey's wellbeing, and knowing he was in good hands allowed us to focus on enjoying our WEDDING DAY! Our timeline was pretty hectic, so we didn't have much opportunity to give Miles detailed instructions throughout the day, but he handled everything perfectly and used great judgment. We really appreciated having someone so reliable and caring with Rey. We'll absolutely be booking Miles again whenever we need a sitter, and we'd recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who truly loves animals and will take great care of their pet.
Anna is truly amazing! Our (born during Covid) dog, Archie, was happy, relaxed, and so well cared for while we were away! It gave us complete peace of mind, knowing he was loved like family and in his own home. We couldn’t recommend this in-home sitter more highly, and we are super excited to do some traveling with absolutely no worries about our sweet Archie. Thank you so much, Anna! You’re the best!!!!
Mickayla was wonderful. I would recommend her to all who want a caring, reliable and responsible pet sitter. All three of our kitties were well looked after, played with and they loved her. She took care of the litter boxes and even took our garbage cans to the curb and brought them back in after collection. She even chased after wind blown recycling with our neighbors. How about that for going above and beyond!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred De Pere walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in De Pere maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 De Pere 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
