“Melissa rules! Our dog is very sweet but is also a needy jumper. He loves hanging out with Melissa, and we've asked her to watch him multiple times in the past few months. She always sends really thorough updates and lots of pictures. We're so grateful and can't recommend her enough!”


2. Rae Ann S.
“Rae is the quintessential animal lover! She loves dogs and cats alike and has a gift for relating to both. She is patient, kind, loving and empathetic towards animals. She truly speaks their language! If you have her watch your pooch or kitty, you will be almost as happy as the pet she watches!”


3. Emily S.

“My cats adored her! They are usually timid around new people, but my cats could tell she had good energy and came to enjoy her company and let her give them all the attention! My cat threw up and she went above and beyond and cleaned it up for me! Seriously will hire again and I definitely recommend her services!”


4. Sophia C.
“You won’t regret have Sophia on your team to take care of your pets. She loves dogs more than most. I would leave any of my dogs with her. She makes sure to feed and exercise the dogs, but also gives them attention and affection. She’s a good choice!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and cattle. Hundeflokk LLC is also licensed and insured. Additionally, I have completed Pet First Aid Training via the Red Cross. ***Dog Walking*** Dog walking is offered Monday to Friday between 8am and 8pm. If you have a dog who can not handle walks, please contact me to arrange special care. I utilize an E-Bike with Pet Trailer during the summer, a solution that works great for senior and disabled dogs, as well as dogs who are unable to go for walks due to medical restriction (70 Lbs Max Weight for Trailer). ***Pet Sitting*** I offer pet sitting in your home beginning Friday evening until Sunday evening. This is great for weekend getaways and short trips. We spend the entire time with your pets except for a 4 hour allotment for running personal errands. The majority of the pet sitting will be at your home. We keep any keys and codes secured, offer daily pictures and updates, as well as a final report upon your return. If there are any emergencies you will be contacted right away, less the time it takes to stabilize the situation. Safety is the main priority and we understand the importance you place in your your pets care, as do I. As part of my supplies, I have a leash with couplers, waste bags, and first aid supplies. I operate under both Rover and my own LLC, which carries commercial pet care insurance.

“Michelle was excellent at communicating, providing updates and overall very professional. She was very comfortable with Rudy and I could tell she was experienced, confident and responsible. Highly recommend!”


7. Lydia M.
About: I’ve been around animals practically my whole life, I can’t remember a time when we didn’t have a family pet running around! And my grandpa had a farm when I was little so I’m fairly familiar with pets you wouldn’t normally find around the house as well. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet(s)! I’m usually pretty flexible when it comes to finding times to work! I work as an agency CNA currently, and that entails making my own schedule so that’s usually not a problem, and even so I can still make time around it. The only constant thing at this moment is school but that’s only in the morning for a couple hours Monday through Thursday. I am always open to finding a nice dog park to near wherever I am and take them for a walk! Taking walks in the summer is one of my favorite things to do around here. But no matter where we are, I’ll always enjoy some play time :)

I am currently in between jobs and just moved to Eau Claire. I am available all day everyday for any of your pet related needs. I will care for your beloved bet as if they were my own.

9. Adrian C.


“Adrian was great in scheduling a meet&greet, on-time, and quick response time. She did two check-ins for my pup while I had to be gone the entire day. I got pictures and she was on time and hung with my pup. Water bowls were filled (it was a hot day) and she even offered to feed her din. Def recommend Adrian!”


10. Erin N.
About: I have grew up with dogs all my life, and had a very demanding great Dane for eight years of his life, and I am now going through the journey of Owning a cat, I Shadowed in vet clinics before so I know a little bit and that Area. I love bathing animals as well. I’m not sure why but I’ve always wanted to be a pet groomer. I do have a full-time job, but I am off on Saturdays and Sundays where I am free anytime before 6 o’clock central time p.m. I do work from home sometime so weekdays are in the air, but I am usually off by 5 PM I personally believe I am a guest in the animals home so treating everything with respect and making sure I have my attention on the animal in the best way shape or form while giving them love and attention.


11. Chelsea A.
“Chelsea watched my puppy for me for about 6 weeks (before she could go to any kind of daycare) and she did amazing! Her dog and mine got along so well and she always came home so tired from playing all day! I still have Chelsea watch Wynnie and would highly recommend her to anyone!”


12. Tawni H.
“Tawni has cared for our dog Boo several times when we have gone on trips out of town for a few days. Our dog stays at her house and enjoys her time there. Tawni is really good about giving updates and sending pictures. Tawni has a good heart and takes care of them like they are her kids.”




13. Rachel R.


“Rachel was wonderful with explaining everything to me, as I am new to this app. She shared with me how the visits went and sent me pics of my pup with helped to rid my anxiety. I think my pup loved it because she was pooped by the time I got home from work after her walk and play time with Rachel.”


14. Maya B.

“Maya was absolutely fantastic with our labradoodle, Dexter! She was friendly, professional, and reliable, arriving timely for every scheduled visit. She went above and beyond by staying longer to ensure Dex felt comfortable and cared for. It was clear she genuinely loves what she does. We came home to a happy pup, which says it all! We would definitely book Maya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog-sitter. Thank you, Maya!”


15. kristy f.

“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!”


16. Emily B.
About: I have experience growing up with labs and I have experience with small dogs as well. My whole life I’ve had dogs and enjoy being around them. I am currently going to graduate school to become a school psychologist in Menominee but I am willing to travel to other cities in the area as I have weekends and weekday flexibility I can provide care in the dogs home by following the instructions the owners set out and allow the dog to feel safe while in their own home


17. Drew G.
About: My wife Courtney and I grew up with cats and dogs as pets our entire lives and currently have two pets of our own. We currently have a female golden doodle, Lucy and a three legged cat, Donna! We recently lost our older little dachshund and it has left a huge hole in our family. We have experience with dogs of all sizes and have kept dogs up to three weeks with the owners out of country! Fun fact: I am a Chiropractor and have experience with adjusting animals as well! Courtney works a flexible schedule and we have an animal-loving daughter that attends UWEC who will give your pets all the attention they can handle when she’s around! Your pets will be in great hands and recieve lots of love when staying with us. We love cuddling on the couch, walking the trails in our neighborhood, playing tug with all Lucy’s favorite toys and playing fetch in the back yard. Drew works Monday through Friday but finishes seeing patients at 12pm on Fridays so he is available for afternoon drop offs through Sunday night for pickup. Our “during the week” availability depends on the needs of your pet which can be discussed before booking! Courtney’s schedule is flexible and can provide potty breaks throughout the day and occasionally works from home. We have an open back yard and live at the end of a cul de sac so your pets will be safe to play. We also have walking paths through our dog friendly, low traffic neighborhood. We spend lots of time outside with our dog and can provide a safe environment for yours as well. We never leave our dog outside alone since we do not have a fenced yard. We can provide a tie out if you have any worries about your dog not responding to a new persons commands. There is plenty of time spent lounging on the couch watching movies or hanging out while we play cards or board games as well. Since our daughter is off to college, we have a pretty quiet, laid back house, which can be nice for anxious pets. Your companion will have no lack of attention when they stay with us including lots of snuggles and treats (if that’s okay with you!)!


18. Paola C.
“Paola has taken care of 3 of my animals. 1 of them is an 85-pound golden retriever with a LOT of energy. She always made sure to take care of him by playing outside as able, going on walks, playing fetch and just giving some fun attention. She also never had any issue feeding him and he never gave me any signs she mistreated him, if anything, I think he is way more excited to see her than me! I also have two cats that she has watched for me as well. I appreciate that she gives updates on my animals when she is watching them too and takes the cutest pictures! I highly recommend Paola to watch any of your fur babies, she definitely treats them like family!”


19. Paige W.

“We are so lucky to have found Paige as a last minute cat sitter for our fur babies. She is the first Rover person we’ve had who actually uses the Rover app while at the house, so we knew exactly when she was there and received extra photos of our babies. She also sent me photos of them during each visit, and took great care of each of them. We will definitely be using her again!!!”


20. Katie T.

“Katie showed up on time and left as expected She gave Oscar his life saving meds. This is so important to us. Katie is very likable. She sent photos and note about each visit. We will trust her with our cats again.”
