“Elba has watched our puppy several times, and I cannot say enough great things about her caring nature! Having a rambunctious puppy, we are always a little nervous leaving him with someone wondering what he'll get into and if they will provide him with enough outlets for energy. Our puppy always comes back home calm, cuddly, and happy. Elba always keeps you in the loop with what your dog is doing with photos using the app, which is also very helpful. Thank you, Elba!”

“Amy was fantastic! She was kind enough to pick up my last minute request and definitely showed Elliot lots of love during his time with her. Great communication and would definitely book with Amy again!”


“Lillian was the sweetest! My baby boy Kross had the best time with her. She cared for him very well, kept him entertained with enriching activities, and sent lots of updates during the day with pictures and videos. 10/10 no notes! Will definitely be booking again in the future”


“I am. Not from Milwaukee and I got lost.And she tried to help me find my way. She? Was so pleasant and sweet even though I was really late to pick up my dog Because I was lost. She kept. Me up to date about how my dog was doing and I really appreciated tha Well definitely be using miranda again”


“Booked at the last minute, she was flexible & friendly Life saver which allowed us to go to the game without worrying about the pups! She’s 5 mins from Fiserv Stadium which worked perfectly - could not have been easier”


“Naomi is great. I took a chance given she is new on Rover as she just moved to Milw. she was accommodating to set up a meet and greet a couple days before I needed day care for my pup. what is attentive and listened about my dog. Communicated and sent pictures throughout his day with her. My pup was well cared for and really liked her! sometimes it’s hard when there’s not a lot of reviews, but I am glad I took a chance and I highly recommend Naomi! THANK YOU NAOMI!”


“I would definitely book with Jack again. He was accommodating and professional, so easy to work with. I was fostering a 4-month-old shepherd mix that was rescued from a very abusive situation in El Paso, TX. Thora was transported to Milwaukee and only fostered with me for a week when I found out that my remote status was abruptly ending that following week. Since she was just starting to come out of her shell, I didn’t want to leave her in a crate all day while I was at work. So, I turned to Rover! Jack lives nearby and with her abuser having been a male, I liked the idea of doggy daycare with a man so she could experience proper treatment from a male caretaker. He responded to my request right away and when we arrived for the meet-and-greet, Thora instantly took to Jack; there was no hesitation or fear. Jack was responsive and communicative all week, didn’t have any issues. Thora was rescued in rough shape. She was extremely underweight even for a puppy, so I was very specific and detailed about her meals and potty schedule and Jack stayed on top of it. I received updates throughout the day as well as pictures. Many of the pix were of Thora napping or lounging next to Jack; she was so comfortable there. He works remotely and took Thora to a nearby park on his lunch breaks. He taught her to play catch and sent me some footage for her online adoption bio. I watched Thora’s confidence grow under Jack’s care; it was great to see. She’d get so excited when we arrived at his home every morning. I’m so glad Jack was available that week; it worked out great for Thora. Thank you, Jack!”


“Lotte gets along great with Katrina’s dogs and Katrina is wonderful with her and communicates regularly to let us know how who she is doing. We’re thankful to find someone who can watch her regularly.”


“Dean is an awesome dog sitter! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with him for the night! Dean made sure to send updates and pictures! Our dog had so much fun with Dean and his resident pup! We would be happy to book him again!”



“Wendy was super responsive and communicative! She was able to take Jenny last minute for daycare and she got along great with Batman! Highly recommend and will definitely be back if need a sitter in Milwaukee!”


“Thank you Kait for taking care of Joker. She was updating me all day which is great. Kait’s dog, Zelda, is a wonderful host. We will keep Kait as a regular pet sitter when possible.”


About: I am aware of the prominently displayed cancellation on my profile. Please don't let that worry you. It was a extremely rare event where I had an emergency roof repair. It's not an incident that would ever repeat. I use a Life360 tile on a separate collar for your dog for an added sense of security. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, all personalities. I care about your pets safety and needs as much as you. I'm gentle and patient and talkative. For overnight I have an extra room that they can stay in (See pictures). Bath and grooming available on request or if needed. They will be able to go potty however often they need to. I have a fenced in backyard. For daycare I can offer half day rates which would be 4 hours. I can offer reduced rates for small dogs. Rover does not provide for these discounts over the app, so make sure to ask me when requesting booking. I can work around your schedule. Unless I have other bookings I will be here to help. I may be able to do same day bookings if I have availability, so just ask asap. Everything will be tailored to your specifications so I like to go over routine first. Meet and gets welcome at my house. I'm patient, gentle, protective, talkative. I love taking pictures. Check in at any time for any reason.

I can provide frequent updates and pictures and will do everything I can to make their stay with us comfortable. Further, my apartment is fully puppy-proof as my little guy tends to get into things. My dog loves other dogs and would love to play if yours is up for it! I work full time but am free most weekends at almost any time of day.
