Pet Sitting Emerson East

“Blanca was amazing - super reliable and responsive! Our cat is usually grumpy, but Blanca is a natural and the cat LOVED her. Great updates and photos with each visit. Will definitely book again!”

“Emma was GREAT! My dog, and my kids loved her. She was punctual and I loved all the photo updates while we were gone. She even catered to some last minute requests. 100% will be contacting her for the next time our dog needs a sitter!”

“Upon meeting Lora I found a calm, mature, dog savy person who is a great listener :) my dogs are a bit of a handful, but they didn’t faze her lol! Great communication while we were gone. Will be using her for all our future needs.”

“Hannah was great! She agreed to do 2 meet and greets since we were moving and came in to feed our kitten (16 year old prissy cat) and got her to take all her meds, no problem! Thank you, Hannah!”

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs and have been dog and cat sitting for 16 years. Dogs love me because I match their energy and will run around with them. Planning on getting my own pup once I buy a house. Weekdays: free in the mornings, typically before 9am; also free in the evenings (after 4pm) Weekends: free as a bird! Able to house sit on weekdays or weekends I am not able to care for pets in my own home. I will walk your dog or house sit for you if you need.

“Jen is incredible! She is so calm and takes my two border collies in stride! She walks them, plays with them, feeds them and is always very dependable 💖 I would recommend her to anyone in the Madison area! It’s a sense of relief when I have her booked.”

“Christina was everything her previous 5 star reviewers said and then some. This was our first experience of using Rover to take care of our 3 cats (one geriatric and two kittens) for drop in visits. She bought them toys, played cat games with them in addition to feeding and cleaning up. Came home to a very happy and content cat family! We have already set up additional cat:house sitting dates with Christina.”

About: Eric and Rachel share a love for their beloved Aussie-beagle Lilo and fostering rescue dogs together. We know that it is never easy to leave your beloved dog with someone new, and in a new place. As our own Lilo has struggled with separation anxiety before, we know how important it is to have a pet sitter who is present, patient, and able to cater their care towards a dog’s specific needs. Rachel has taken care of 6 different family dogs growing up, including a border collie, golden retriever, Boston terrier, 2 mixed breeds and a silky terrier. Eric has taken care of his family dog (chihuahua mix) since birth till now (11 years old). Together, we have fostered 16 rescue dogs these past two years, ranging from a high energy Great Pyrenees to 3 Border Collie puppies all at once, to a completely afraid and anxious Beagle mama and Shiba Inu mama that are recovering from very difficult situations. We have also looked after American pit bulls, a large Newfoundland, and senior doggies who have hip difficulties and special diets. Our own dog is a 3.5 year old Aussie-beagle, so we particularly love the herding dogs. :) We both have lots of experience working with dogs of all kinds of temperaments and needs, especially high energy dogs who require a lot of attention and care, and administering medication to dogs who have special needs. Rachel also loves cooking her home cooked meals for her dog, and can do that for yours too, if you need! We both work from home and have all weekends free. Our flexible schedules together allows us to bring dogs regularly on walks and to look after them consistently. We follow instructions really well, and can take care of your dog according to your requirements. We allow dogs to roam and sleep freely in our home, but we can also crate your dog easily if you prefer. We know how to work with your dog with lots of gentle care and love.

“Joan was a wonderful sitter for our two cats! She was super communicative, sent us lots of pictures, and was always timely. Would highly recommend!!”

“Sofi was patient and caring for my dog. My dog warmed up to Sofi more and more each drop in visit. She was great at communicating and sent adorable pictures. Very reliable!”

Ashley Paige R.

“Elizabeth was so great and accommodating!! Prompt communication and did a fabulous job with my cat. She provided a peace of mind while I was away.”

Wenona W.

“Darby is such a caring and thoughtful sitter! She gets better pictures of our cats than we do, and she is amazing at writing recaps of her visits. It gives us such peace of mind to know she’s taking care of our pets, and she really treats them like her own.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—growing up in a home full of fish, birds, cats, dogs, and rodents taught me early on that pets are family. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and attentive care. Today, I share my home with my friendly dog Birdie, who loves meeting new furry friends and makes a great playmate. My two kids are also passionate animal lovers, and together we create a safe, warm, and pet-friendly environment. I’m experienced in administering medications, whether pills, drops, or topical treatments, and I’m happy to support pets with special needs. I also offer daily walks for exercise and enrichment, and I’m comfortable with crate training if it’s part of your routine. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or relaxed, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I work full-time during the week, but on my weekends off, I love spending my time caring for animals. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and I’m excited to offer reliable, loving support to fellow pet parents when I’m available. Whether it’s weekend drop-ins, walks, or cuddles while you’re away, I’m here to help give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully pet-friendly and thoughtfully pet-proofed to ensure a secure environment. I use baby gates to create designated pet areas, so dogs can have their own space or be kept out of certain rooms when needed. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Fresh water is always available in multiple areas of the home to keep pets hydrated throughout the day. Whether your pet loves to run or relax, they’ll have a secure, comfortable, and caring space to enjoy.

“Megan was absolutely stellar! Her updates were incredibly thorough and she sent lots of pictures of all the pets, including the aquatic ones. Our kitty adored her, and it really made me feel safe to leave the pets knowing that she was there. Megan is a great sitter and I am really looking forward to booking with her again.”

About: Hello, my name is Katy and I would love to care for your dog! I just finished a term with AmeriCorps and now work part-time in the service industry. My flexible schedule means I am free to walk or watch your pup! I understand that caring for your dog means understanding their individual needs. Please don't shy away from telling me your dog's specific needs and quirks. I want to make caring for your dog a great experience for both pet andowner. I bring passion and professionalism to this job and absolutely enjoy what I do. I have had dogs all my life and currently have an elderly chihuahua. Because of his health concerns and age, I'm not currently boarding dogs at my home. However, I would love to walk and sit your pups and can assure they will get attentive and safe care.

About: I truly love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities! I am diligent about safety, cleanliness, and adhering to your and your pet’s schedules. I have 8 years of experience caring for my own cats. I am skilled in grooming (including nail clipping!), engaging them in play, and maintaining clean litter, food, and water areas. Additionally, I grew up with dogs and have dog sat for friends’ dogs. I love walking and being outdoors, so I am happy to care for very energetic dogs! I care deeply about animal welfare—I want your pets to be as happy as mine! :) I work Sunday-Thursday and can begin pet sitting by approximately 4:30 (depending on location). My availability is open all day on Fridays and Saturdays. I ensure that leashes are secured and properly fitted, doors and fences are locked, and that pets have a fresh and clean space. I have experience crating dogs (and cats during tornado warnings!). One of my own cats is an escape artists so I am very careful with doors as I come and go.

“Katherine visited our 2 cats while we were away and did an amazing job! She was super communicative and sent us a lot of photos! Would definitely recommend her!”

Denver L.

“Keely was a wonderful sitter for our cat. Getting the daily report card from Keely while we were away for a long time set my mind at ease and allowed me to relax. She took great pictures, allowing me to see that my kitty was doing just fine without me, and kept me up to date on the few small health concerns my cat has. She also took good care of the plants while I was gone! It was such a relief to have someone so thorough and reliable looking after my girl. I will absolutely book with Keely again!”

Alicia C.

“We literally could not be happier with the care we got from Vanessa. This was our first extended time away since adopting Finn where a friend or relative (usually his grandma) was not available to cat-sit so we were pretty nervous how all of this would work. Finn is extremely nervous with new people and even with ones he’s met a few times. But Finn absolutely loved Vanessa as her photos and videos easily showed. Within her first visit, she had photos of him rolling over to show his belly - the ultimate sign that he was so comfortable with her. We really appreciated Vanessa’s communication with us during the entire process. There is a 100% chance we will hire her again. Anyone who’s nervous about leaving their separation-anxiety cat alone for a few days should really be confident Vanessa is going to go a long way in making you comfortable.”

“Lacey was super responsive which was nice when booking, but she also genuinely cared about making sure my cat was getting enough love & attention while I was gone, which was awesome to know. Would defs have her cat-sit again!”
