“Kristin was great, came home to a very happy puppy and she had a great time with her. I was sent lots of pictures of a happy cuddled pup. I would recommend Kristin to anyone”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.

“Amanda was great with Max, great communication with me. Short notice for Amanda to watch Max I’m very pleased with Amanda definitely having her take care of Max again”

About: I have 15+ years of professional pet care experience through shelter, boarding, dog daycare and rescue experience. I previously managed a large scale, highly awarded facility in Madison. I can offer a vast amount of knowledge to make sure your pet not only has a great time while you are away but also is safe and well card for. I offer walks and drop in visits most days of the week. I currently have week day availability Tuesday - Thursday 2pm or later and any time Friday - Sundays. Walks can be in your own neighborhood, at a nearby trail location of your choosing or off leash at my rural home in our 1.75 acre fenced in yard. (Additional travel fees may apply for locations other than your home.) Your pup will come home tired from not only physical exercise but also from mental stimulation as I will encourage them to use their sniffer and their brain with basic obedience. I also offer a limited amount of Pet Sitting services in customer homes only. I am not able to sleepover in customer homes due to having pets/children of my own but can offer house sitting on a drop in basis and make multiple, extended visits to your home daily at your preferred times. I look forward to meeting your and your pet! I work a part time job Monday - Thursday. Pet sitting clients must be okay with a 7 hour day those days, but other days are much shorter. At our meet and greet we will discuss safety protocols for getting your pet inside and outside safety as well as ensure they have a collar/harness setup that is secure for walks.

“Chelle was great! We were in an unexpected pinch and Chelle came to our rescue. Excellent communication, sent lots of pictures. We were confident that our new pup was in good hands. Would definitely work with Chelle again!”

About: I am an animal lover. Always have been. I grew up on a farm and have worked on a couple as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, goats, cattle, pigs, sheep, even ferrets, raccoons and squirrels. Have always had multiple pets while growing up and currently have my 3 dogs and 2 cats. I've always enjoyed caring for animals. Brings me great joy and have always wanted to make it some kind of job. They bring a calming peace to me and I feel like I connect with all animals and that's why we get along so well. I am currently working full time in Madison at a doggy daycare and work at 3 different facilities. I have gained lots of experience with working with puppies all the way up to elderly dogs and all sorts of breeds. You won't be disappointed in choosing me to care for your family members. Thank you for your time checking out my profile and considering me. I work full time at a doggy daycare but am available before or after my shifts during the week and free on most weekends. I am pretty flexible. I have a fenced in backyard and 3 dogs who are great company. My dogs are crate trained and I have extra crates if your dog would need one as well.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—growing up with both cats and dogs in the house taught me how to care for pets with love, patience, and attention to their unique personalities. While I can’t have a pet in my home right now, I jump at any chance to care for my friends' animals, whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or just being there to keep them company. I’m reliable, gentle, and genuinely enjoy building trust with every pet I meet. I work just a couple of days a week, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m happy to work around your needs for walks or drop-ins. I treat your home as if it were my own—always with respect and attention to detail. I make sure to clean up after your pet, whether it’s litter boxes, food areas, or accidents, and I aim to leave your space even cleaner than I found it. You can relax knowing your pet and your home are in responsible hands.

“Rebekah stayed with our 2 dogs while we were out of town and was wonderful! She was very kind and responsive and even sent us cute pictures of our fur babies while we were away.”

“Elizabeth did an amazing job of taking care of our dog in our home while we were on vacation. She stopped over to meet Sersi in advance and go over the timing and expectations for visits. Once we were gone she always visited as agreed upon and made sure Sersi had everything she needed. She even sent some videos so I could see that Sersi was comfortable (which she would not have been had she been in a kennel for the week). I would not hesitate to book Elizabeth again in the future.”

“Bella was a great communicator, did a wonderful job watching our two dogs. She left the house in perfect condition after house sitting for 4 nights. She even did the laundry and cleaned up when one of our dogs had an accident on the couch. She was wonderful!”

Jared B.

“Rylie was wonderful and our dogs absolutely loved her! She was great at communicating and even helped by cleaning the house after she left. We would definitely have her back!”

Jared B.

“Grace was very professional when taking care of our puppy, Andi. She sent pictures and took time to meet her the day before she planned to stay for two nights. Thanks again!!”

About: I have always had dogs in the household ever since I was born. More specifically my family had my sister and I grow up around Black Labs the entirety of my life. Neighbors as well as my immediate family have relied on me to take care of their animals. Whether it be a short walk or staying with them for an extended period of time, I was their guy! I have an extremely open/flexible schedule. I am self employed so I pretty much choose when I want to work my other job. Taking care of animals via Rover will take top priority unless my job situation changes. If that occurs I will make sure to update my profile accordingly! I have no other animals/roommates in my apartment. So your dog/cat will get all the undivided love and attention they deserve while you're away. Same rules apply if I am asked to dog/cat sit at a clients home!

About: I’ve had animal experience for the last 10 years! I have a few pets of my own, but I have also done many jobs taking care of pets, and I recently started fostering animals as well. I’m able to provide comfort to your animals, and complete care to the owners standards and beyond! I am currently free everyday, all day, for any services for your fur babies! Please reach out with any questions you may have regarding my schedule! Thank you! In my clients home I will make sure to keep an eye on the animals at all times to ensure the safety of your pets, let your animal out, and feed them promptly, and be sure to give them lots of love’

“Morgan is a fantastic sitter! Our usual dog sitter was unable to watch our dogs and on very short notice Morgan was able to help us out. Our dogs had a wonderful week! She was very communicative and sent us detailed updates daily. Highly recommend her to anyone with multiple dogs with special needs.”

“Deann was so easy to book with and did a great job. I could tell from her meeting my pups that I had nothing to worry about. She sent us picture updates and the house looked like no one had even stayed there. We would defintiely ask Deann to come back again.”
