“Jenn cared for our cats just as if they were her own. She clearly loves cats, as evidenced by the meticulous details she communicated to me about her daily visits with them. We came home to happy cats! I will definitely ask Jenn to care for our cats again in the future.”


“Emily has been wonderful with Heisenberg! I am so grateful for her help. I was nervous to have a stranger take care of him, but I couldn't be happier with how well it has worked out.”


“I can’t rate Jennifer high enough. She helped care for our senior dog over the weekend and she was absolutely amazing. Our dog was sick and the way she took care of him, patiently, and provided us with updates was exactly what we needed. Bentley is in his final months with us and leaving him is very hard, and we trusted her completely. I’d recommend Jennifer again and again!”


“Julia did a fantastic job taking care of our Callie during one weekend. She was attentive to her needs and also flexible for feedings and medication administration. She helped us out last minute and made us feel at ease that she was taken care of. Highly recommend her to take care of your fur baby! They will be in excellent hands!”



About: I’m Tanner, a current medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin, living in Tosa right by campus. Thanks to my student schedule, I have great availability! I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting since I was 12. My family currently has five dogs, a cat, a bunny, a pufferfish, and a hamster—so I truly love animals of all kinds and have experience caring for a wide variety. I’m comfortable working with all types of dogs and animals, and I welcome all breeds and species I have extensive experience with senior dogs, having cared for four of my own, as well as with puppies—I’ve helped raise and train three! I’ve also volunteered at humane societies since I was a teenager, giving me valuable experience with animals who’ve had traumatic or unique pasts. I love the challenge and reward of working with them. I’m happy to provide dog walking references upon request, and I do require meet and greets before any bookings. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! Almost always free due to student schedule :) happy to help whenever you need as most of my classes are virtual. This will change in the future but at least until January 2026 my schedule is great for sitting + walking. I will make sure to listen to you because you know your dog best. I know that all dogs have different personalities and I love it! I wanna accommodate so your dog has the best experience and you feel at ease, I have experience in paid dog walking plus volunteering with humane societies so I have met many different types of dogs and work well with all of them.

“Sandra was great!! Our puppy bonded with her right away. She is very informative for first time rover users, friendly, flexible, and communicates well through the whole process! We were a little nervous about trying this whole online pet setting arrangement out but she made the whole process comfortable and we will not be hesitant about calling on her anytime we need a hand ?”


About: My husband and I loved our dog for 10 years. We can’t get another one anytime soon but will love yours like our own. We both had dogs as pets growing up and have cared for a pet for 40+ years. I am an elementary school principal. I am available for full-time care or walking June-August. Outside of that, I’m available full-time on the weekends and evenings during the week. We are available to accommodate personal requests, a safe environment and safe neighborhood. We are looking to provide care for your beloved pet and to help you out when needed.

“Trustworthy, reliable, a true dog lover — those are just a few ways to describe Christina. She is a true gem! She was always on time and very respectful to our pup and our home. She played with our Corgi, gave lots of belly rubs and even took him on walks. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for your kindness, Christina!”


“Katelynn did a great job with my girls. I was able to book her on short notice and will definitely rebook when I need someone. She was attentive to details and had a good idea on a litter box issue. Definitely recommend!”


“I highly recommend Nikki for daily visits. She visited our dog a few times a day while we were gone for a long weekend. She listened to my concerns about leaving our anxious dog, and and her calm confidence allowed me to relax knowing she would take good care of him.Nikki sent reassuring notes throughout our absence and she was able to see the sweet nature of our dog even though he tends to be anxious and cautious. Having Nikki take care of our dog was a good choice for us.”


“Jenifer was amazing! I have a really shy kitty that avoids people and he came out and played - I am in awe! Very attentive and sent a bunch of videos every day. 10/10”


About: Hi! I’m Carolyn—a reliable and caring dog lover offering dog walks and drop-in visits. I’ve had two wonderful dogs of my own—a Bullmastiff and a rescue mix—both around 75 lbs, so I’m very comfortable handling larger breeds. My rescue needed two TPLO knee surgeries, so I’m also experienced with medication administration, mobility support, and caring for senior or recovering dogs. I know how important it is for your dog to feel safe and happy while you’re away. That’s why I take the time to learn your pup’s favorite toy, game, or treat to make each visit feel familiar and fun. Caring for dogs brings me so much joy, and I’d love the opportunity to stop by for a walk or check in to give your furry friend some love and attention while you’re out! I currently work Monday through Thursday 8-4:30. I would ensure your pets are taken care of every morning and evening when I work and even more on my off days . I would ensure your pets are comfy and well taken care of by providing regular walks, playtime and desired meals and treats and fresh water. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and letting them sniff all the wonderful smells.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and I have a 8 year old golden husky named Luna, who is my best friend. I have experience taking care of animals ranging from horses down to parakeets, my specialty is long hikes and intense fetch sessions to get in a good workout. Newly graduated and have a few part time jobs as I figure out what path to take next, I have good availability and flexibility so it never hurts to just reach out if you need someone quick! I have a large backyard, plenty of room to run around (it's a plus if you have a social dog because my dog loves to play). I also offer toys, treats and plenty of pets throughout the day. My dog has been trained and is great with other dogs, she shares everything and is not territorial over food or people.

April & Brad R.Star Sitter
“I want to recommend April R for a dog caregiver position formally. My dog is my life, and I don't trust many people with him; for that reason, I am significantly picky about who he is left with when I have to leave town without him. I trust April completely; I know that she would treat him as if he was her dog in her care, and I would not have to worry about him at all. She would be an asset to your team.”
