About: I have a flexible work schedule Monday - Friday and also an empty nester so lots of free time. I have been around dogs my entire life both large and small. I like to walk and would enjoy a walking buddy! Both long and short walks are ok with me... I have a flexible work schedule Monday - Friday and off on the weekend. I am a empty nester so lots of free time to spend with your pet. Having an initial meet and greet would be great for you to get to know me and for us both to ask those initial questions and address your pets needs to ensure safety.
About: Hello I'm Elliot! I have grown up around animals my whole life- we've had a Pomeranian Chihuahua named Kirby for about 11 years now and I take care of him frequently when I'm back home from college and over the summer. I also have two guinea pigs of my own, and have had a hedgehog in the past so I am very well versed in smaller pets! I frequently took care of pets for my neighbors and friends when I was younger, including cats, fish, and many many dogs! I was also involved in the Lincoln Children's Zoo-crew volunteer program for 4 years, where I spent time learning how to take care of all kinds of animals. I currently co parents a cat with my partner, and have always had a special place in my heart for cats! I also enjoy volunteering at the ECCHA in my free time with their cats. I am currently located in Eau Claire, WI for all your pet care needs! As of right now I have availability on most Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends unless otherwise indicated on my calendar. I’m available for drop in, walks, and even house sitting! I am unable to bring other pets into my home because I do have pets of my own and due to tenant restrictions, however, I am more than happy to visit your furry friends in your home or take them on walks outside the house! I prioritize any instructions you give me and want to make sure they feel at home no matter where they are.
“Hailee dropped in on our cat while we were out of town to refill food and scoop the litter box. She responded quickly to all messages and completed everything as asked! We would definitely seek her help again.”
About: Lifelong personal experience caring for dogs, cats, and fish with a variety of personalities and temperaments. Beyond caring for my own pets, I have provided in-home pet care and house-sitting for others. I’m adaptable, attentive to detail, and committed to following each pet’s unique routine and care instructions. I’m a full-time college student with classes from about 9 AM to 3 PM, but I have hours between classes that give me plenty of flexibility for pet care. After 3 p.m., I am usually free and can devote a lot of time to caring for pets. I can work walks, playing, feeding, and check-ins into my class schedule, and I have greater flexibility in the evenings and on weekends. I take care of pets in their own homes by maintaining as comfortable and regular a routine as I can. I adhere to all of the owner's directions, including those regarding playtime, medicine, walks, feeding schedules, and any special needs. Along with keeping their house tidy and safe, I also make sure pets have lots of attention, exercise, and company. While their owner is away, I want every pet to feel secure, at ease, and well-cared for.
“Rachel was super accommodating for my recent trip. She took great care of my cat when she dropped in and her notes and pics helped me know everything was fine. I would highly recommend Rachel!”
“Kristy did a fantastic job, I couldn't have asked for anyone better to check in on my cats and make them feel comfortable. She sent pictures and they looked very happy with her. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, including Great Danes, so I'm good with all sizes of dogs. Also, I frequently would take care of a family's friends' pets for weeks at a time while they were away, which gave me experience with all kinds of pets. I have a pretty flexible schedule as my job is mainly afternoon/nights during the weekends. So I have plenty of time to love and care for your fur babies during the week. I do many things to ensure your pets safelty, for example, when I'm taking your pet out to the bathroom, I always make sure that I can see them at all times; if you have a fence, that it is shut and locked; or, if you have some kind of tie-out for them, that they are securely attached. The same goes for when we are walking; I always double-check that the leash is secured to their harness/collar.
About: I have had a dog since I was 8 years old. I am well experienced in walking, feeding, bathing, etc. dogs. I have never met a dog I haven’t liked and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. My dog is currently a senior dog so I am familiar with caring for older dogs. I am currently in graduate school so i have classes in the morning/afternoon but my evenings are very open to walk or care for your pets!! When caring in a clients home, I make sure to get clear instructions on how to efficiently care for their pet. I make sure I understand their schedule and follow it closely. I also make some time to let the pet get used to me before I do what I need to do to make sure they are comfortable.
“Michelle regularly does check ins and has done a couple overnights for my pup. She arrives on time, takes great care of my dog, communicates, follow instructions, and sends lots of pics. She is incredibly nice and attentive to my pup and also this nervous dog mom lol. I am very selective in who let care for my gentle giant; I trust Michelle completely and know my baby is in amazing hands. She treats my dog like one of her own, his schedule is followed, and he gets to relax at home with lots of love while I am a way. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could! We are grateful for her at our house!”
About: I love dogs and have two of my own - a little man named Sid and big golden named Ruby. Everyone in my family has a dog as well so I am very used to being around pets. I am an active person and would love to walk, run with, or care for your dog! I work 2 days a week and I am flexible on weekends, so just let me know what you're thinking! We have two kids at home, 3 and under, so must be okay with sweet kiddos. I live in home with a big fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs. I have a small dog and large dog who get along very well with other dogs. They get super playful around other dogs, so your dog would surely have a fun time and get all his/her energy out! I am working part-time and home with my babies the other days, allowing a lot of flexibility with caring for your pet. We have some occasional things planned for weekends but are otherwise pretty open! I have a fenced in, nice yard for dogs to play and run in. We live in a great walking neighborhood. We have two dogs to keep your fur baby company as well as two young children. Animals must be kid-friendly for our home!
“Molly was a fantastic cat sitter for our Pogo! She did more than was asked-cleaning up after his meals and checking our AC when I asked. She was super attentive to our kitty and we will definitely ask her to watch him again.”
About: I bring a calm, friendly presence that helps pets feel safe and relaxed while their people are away. I’ve grown up with animals and currently care for a few clients’ pets in Eau Claire — including a 3-week stay with multiple pets. I know how important routines are, and I pride myself on clear communication, clean homes, and happy tails. Whether it’s a quick walk or a full house sit, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter and treat your pets like my own. I’m flexible, detail-oriented, and truly love getting to know each animal’s personality. My goal is always to create a stress-free experience — for both you and your furry family. Pet care can fit seamlessly into my routine. I currently bartend and this allows for more flexibility and available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, or house sitting throughout the week — your pet’s needs come first in my day! I have no pets at my home so my casa is your pets casa with no interference. At my 8 plex building there is a much area to run around if they can be off leash otherwise the area is great to walk for potty breaks at anytime. I live in a safe, quiet and less trafficked area which will be great for walks!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life! I’ve also had a few friends and family rely on me to let their pups outside, go for walks, or just have a little hangout time while their owners are away :) I do not currently have any pets of my own and I recently moved out of my parents home, but I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life! I care for every pet with intention, patience, and attention to their individual needs. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and preferences, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe, and cared for. Whether that means sticking closely to feeding and exercise schedules, providing extra playtime and enrichment, or offering gentle companionship, I tailor my care to each pet's unique needs. My goal is to create a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, treating every animal as if they were my own.
About: Hi! I'm a dependable animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up around dogs, including a reactive German Shepherd, and I've also helped care for both small and large dogs in my family, so I'm comfortable with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I'm especially good at reading dog body language and making sure dogs feel safe and understood. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or helping a dog burn off energy in a positive way, I focus on keeping things calm, structured, and fun. I'm patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always treat every dog like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you're away. I am a college student so after 3pm on Monday's, Wednesdays, and Thursdays I am available for any of the services needed. This way I can board on the weekends for sure. I have an unfenced yard with a puppy that loves to play. I have a crate available for most dogs. I have a 100ft long leash so you don’t have to worry about your pet.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Eau Claire is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eau Claire
Victoria has been my best cat sitter by far. I used her for drop-in visits and she kept me well informed on how Rascal was doing and his catitude for that day. She let me know the one day she found some puke and watched him the rest of the week for any new occurrences and let me know that his litter box looked normal on his sickish day as well. I'm hoping she's available for any future vacations I take as she will be my go-to catsitter.
Second time booking with Natascha for drop in visits for my cat! Followed care instructions, sent photos, and checked in after the last visit. After a very traumatic experience with a previous sitter for my dog (that resulted in harm to my dog and surgery), it took me 2 years to even think about booking visits for my cat. Natascha is trustworthy and I knew my cat was in great hands! Would 100% recommend.
This was my first time booking through Rover. Rae Ann was amazing! She took such great care of my pets and kept me updated every day with photos and messages about how things were going. It made me feel much better knowing they were in very good hands. My pets looked happy and relaxed when I got home. I would definitely book with Rae Ann again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Eau Claire is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 205 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Eau Claire. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eau Claire. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
