“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”

“Linda was excellent and very accommodating for my last minute trip. She also sent a lot of update photos of my puppy to make my first time with rover a great experience :)”

“Teri did a wonderful job caring for Winnie! She sent us daily updates and photos, reviewed all of our care instructions during our drop-off and made sure everything went smoothly. Highly recommend!”


“Blythe is absolutely wonderful!! We have never used a service like this for our Dobie and I was very nervous. Blythe was very easy to get along with and she made sure to send pics and updates daily which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend her to anyone thinking about using this service. Also our guy is an older dog (11) For us it was perfect that she only has one dog at a time. Bentley seemed to be very relaxed and comfortable with her!”
“Gabriel did a terrific job in taking care of my special dog on a recent trip that was not scheduled. This is the first time I used Rover for overnight care and I couldn’t be happier with the result. I enthusiastically recommend Rover and Gabriel!”

“Working with Julia and Colin was our first Rover experience and we could not be happier with how it went! Julia is extremely communicative and made the process easy. Our dog took to them very quickly and we could tell she was made comfortable in their home. We look forward to booking with them again!”

“Lacey watched my dog while I was back home for thanksgiving break - she did an exceptional job and provided plenty of pictures! My dog played a lot with her sisters dog and they ran around a bunch in the yard”


“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashley and her family. Penelope has stayed with Ashley before, and it is so clear how much they genuinely adore her — and the feeling is absolutely mutual! Ashley is incredible about sending me photos and little updates throughout the day, so I always know how Penelope is doing and what kind of fun she is getting into. There is such a difference between knowing your pet is being well cared for and knowing she is being genuinely loved while you’re away, and with Ashley, I never have to worry for a second. Her entire family is so incredibly sweet to Penelope, and she is clearly completely comfortable and happy in their home. When I picked her up today, she genuinely seemed like she would have preferred to stay with them rather than come home with me — which I suppose is the highest praise a pet sitter can receive 😂 Ashley has become someone I completely trust with Penelope, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be back!”


“Max and his girlfriend took great care of my pup!! She loved having other dogs to play with. Max has a wonderful personality and vibe. He is very compassionate and you can tell has a spot in his heart for dogs. My pup had a ton of time playing outside, took walks and had a park adventure. Max is accommodating and was happy go alloys my pup to relax on the furniture and most importantly sleep/snuggle up in bed at night. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to Max gor dog sitting.”

“Absolutely the best! Our dog was so happy. We got pictures every day while we were on vacation. Will absolutely use Erin again and her dogs are the best!!! Hi to Ruben & Norm😊”

“Took great care of our Cleo! She loved her stay! Great communication and great quality of care! He was able to squeeze us in last minute which was so kind of him!”

About: Hi! I work mostly remotely, and have a big love for pets! I am also a painter and a muralist (you’ll see my dog, Mouse in front of a couple murals). Currently I do not have a pet, but have always had dogs growing up (mostly labs and poodle mixes). I'm very active and love to take walks and runs and frequently practice yoga (sometimes at home). Currently I have plenty of time to care for a pup and have dogsat for many of my friends's pets. Your dog will be well cared for and loved and pretty much, just by my side! I lost my dog a few years ago and he was the best companion ever. Definitely will always have a soft spot for frenchies. ❤️ I am usually working remotely, so I have flexibility in terms of dog walking and boarding. I am happy to pop in to walk your dog, board them with me or stay at your home. I have plenty of space in a warehouse loft/elevator building. There are other friendly dogs in this building. I live downtown so I’m happy to walk the dog to the lake, less than a mile away and through the third ward. I typically end up going for walks along the lake. I’m happy to go for a walk for any amount of time.

“Very responsive and easy going. Jack watched our dogs for the first time this weekend and they were well cared for. They seemed right at home at his house when I picked them up!”

“Dean took great care of our dogs! He was very communicative and sent updates, photos, and videos. He was flexible with us when our schedule changed. We would definitely book with him again.”

“Best dog sitter in milwaukee! We were so happy with how Brinks was treated and the updates we received during his stay. We were so happy and the process was well thought out and seamless.”

“We are so grateful for the amazing care our dog received while we were away. You treated our fur baby like family and for that we're very thankful. The pictures and updates were appreciated. We appreciate your kindness and would absolutely rebook again and recommend you to our family and friends 🧡”

“Alexis is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her! She sent us daily updates and I know that our dog absolutely adores her. We will be using her in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fernwood
Mary has been watching Violet since she was a puppy and is the only person I trust to watch my dog. She is the absolute best! I get updates throughout the day and if you have a high energy dog I could not recommend her more. I have a Belgian Malinois and Mary brings her along on hikes and long walks. Mary is also really consistent with small training habits which I really appreciate having a working breed.

Katrina is amazing! We truly appreciated all the love and care she gave our dogs over the past five days. She sent us daily updates with pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very understanding and accommodating when our flight was delayed and we were stressed about getting home. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Thank you so much, Katrina!
Joe and Ramiro are incredible. Second time using them, and my dog, who normally has separation anxiety, ran right into their home without looking back. We have finally found a dog sitter that feels like vacation for our Oreo. They are great with dogs and take great care of them.

We used Rover for the first time and couldn’t be happier with Teri. She watched our dog Ranger and gave us daily updates with pictures, which was a huge relief compared to the kennel we used to use. Ranger was clearly well cared for, and the whole experience was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Teri!
