I'll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Desiree has been the biggest delight to work with. Her communication is impeccable. Any questions I have asked she has responded immediately answering all questions and then some.

“When you leave your fur baby, this is the person you want to take care of them. I simply cannot believe how amazing she is. I am thrilled with her service and how she took care of My Teddy!! She went above and beyond all of my expectations! What comforting feeling to know that somebody that really cares is watching your animal for you. Don’t hesitate to use her to watch your fur baby. I couldn’t be happier!”

“Adrian stayed the weekend at my house and even came back right away to cover another night+next day because our flight got cancelled! And the house was in fantastic shape when we got back. She was awesome texting me the whole time about how everything was going too : )”
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 fits seamlessly into my routine because I work remotely and have full control over my schedule. This allows me to be flexible 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!
“Emily was great with our 2 dogs. She sent tons of photos and kept us updated on what was happening while we were out of the country. Would recommend 100%”
“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”
About: I have experience with cats, little dogs, big dogs, and everything in between! I work from home, and available to love up on your pet when you are away! My son loves animals as much as I do, and we look forward to help you with yours! I had a boxer/pit for almost 11 years. Sadly, he developed cancer and it was too much for him. He passed on 10/27/22. I have experience with Labs, Yorkies, Greyhounds, cats, birds, and fish. I love learning new things about different animals and breeds. I work Monday - Friday from home 7am-3:30 pm. I am available to provide walks and potty breaks during the day as long as I can make it to and from your home within my break times. :) If they are here with me, they will have many outside breaks and hugs during the day. Your pets will be treated like they are one of our family. They will get attention and cuddles just like they would if they were our own. We will only accept one pet or family pets at a time to ensure that your pet(s) get the attention they deserve while staying with us! I'm willing to travel outside of the indicated radius; however, an additional mileage rate may apply depending on distance. This will be discussed at time of booking.
About: I grew up around dogs my entire life. I have 2 family dogs that I love with all my heart. I have extensive experience working with several dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am also a part time foster for the Eau Claire Humane Society. I have worked at a dog boarding, daycare, and spa facility for 2 years. I am also currently in masters school at UWEC for Athletic Training. I have experience with dogs of all varieties. I love to take dogs on walks or out to parks. I am also more than willing to have a chill afternoon lounging with your dogs and giving them lots of love!!

“Ashley and her family were wonderful with our pups! We got lots of updates and photos throughout our trip. We could tell the pups really enjoyed having her there to play and get snuggles from. We would absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and getting to play with or pet them. Over the last 6 years, I’ve been able to watch my sister’s 2 dogs both during the day and overnight. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m busy during the day some weekdays, but I’m available for overnight stays and weekend care to provide attentive, reliable care for your dog while you are away. I’ll follow any instructions you leave and stick to your dog’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with respect and care, making sure everything is just as you left it.
“Will definitely book again!”
About: Animals and pets of any kind have held a special place in my heart for most of my life. I have experience dog sitting animals 10- 80 lbs and have cared for as many as 3 at a time. I currently don't own any animals, but I would love to take care of yours! I'm currently unemployed, so I’ll have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! As a graduate student taking a full summer course load, Rover allows me the flexibility I need for summer employment. I am available for house/dog sitting & walking on weekdays and weekends. My availability is open and can be tailored to fit your needs! I will care for your pet(s) in your home with the utmost respect and responsibility. Whatever your pet needs are, I will work with you to make sure we have a plan to keep your pet(s) comfortable and safe. I am comfortable following a routine or giving medications if needed.

“Celeste was absolutely amazing with our fur baby Teddy. He required medication twice a day, and she was able to provide him with that.

“We came home to a happy puppy! Emma keep up with our Murphy. He was a sleepy boy so we know they must have played hard. Emma was an excellent dog sitter. We will definitely use Emma again. 10/10.”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals, all age groups, and behavioral levels. I’ve had dogs my entire life, have pet sit for family, and have worked with dogs at an animal shelter as a shelter caregiver. I’m currently unemployed so my schedule is almost always free. I’m willing to do weekends and holidays as well. I can spend as little or as much time you want with your animals. I know basic first aid (have my own supplies), cpr and heimlich on most animal. I have extra carriers and kennels if emergency transport was ever needed.

“I have known Grace for 7+ years and I can confidently say she is the ideal person to take care of your pet(s). She is kind, conscientious, and she radiates a warmth that naturally makes others feel comfortable (which is why she was the maid of honor in my wedding!) Her experience/background in mental health counseling has given her the skills to communicate transparently and effectively, which is a must-have when finding a pet sitter on Rover. She grew up in a family that had dogs, and she specifically cared for her beloved husky, Sasha. She is my go-to when I need a cat-sitter and some day when I have kids I will trust her to watch them, too!”
