Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Layla while we were away. She kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, and we could tell Layla was happy and well-loved the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, content pup — we couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Elizabeth and would absolutely book with her again.

Jessica was amazing! She communicated with us every day and sent us pictures/videos of the dogs, which my daughters really enjoyed. She took extra special care of our geriatric dog, making and feeding him human food, per our request. We will definitely be hiring Jessica again! Thank you for taking care of our fur babies! Brandy

Emily was great at communicating with us the entire stay, and we could tell from all her updates and pictures that our pups loved having her around. Our flight ended up getting delayed because of the blizzard rolling through Wisconsin this past weekend, and Emily was able to help make sure our pups were let out and fed while we figured out how to get back to Milwaukee. I would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone else looking for expert and friendly care for their pups on Rover. Thank you again!

Melissa is genuinely amazing. From the meet and greet to the moment we returned home, I’m so grateful and impressed by her. She kept our boys active and happy (and handled our big puppy so well!) Melissa communicated so well, and we returned to the house just as we left it. Highly recommend Melissa. She really cares about the dogs and making you feel comfortable while you’re away.

I am a first time user of Rover.com and was nervous about leaving my dogs with someone the dogs and I didn't know. The meet and greet with Jackie helped put my mind at ease. Jackie did an amazing job taking care of my 2 dogs at my house for a little over 2 weeks. One the dogs does not trust people. It did not take him long to warm up to her, which says that she has good, calm energy. It was great that the dogs could be at home and she would come to them. I think this made the dogs less anxious. She sent us great pictures and promptly responded to texts. I would highly recommend Jackie and I would definitely use her again.

Catie is a gem! We met twice before she stayed with our two small dogs for 4 nights. Catie updated us frequently and left our house spotless… and our dogs love her! She is kind, highly reliable, a great communicator and is a truly lovely person. So happy to have found her!

About: I have taken care of dogs and was a dog walker around the neighborhood since I was 10. Neighbors and loved ones have relied on me to take care of their beloved pets. I have grown up with many dogs myself and I love to spend time with dogs and help them stay happy. I currently work a full time job, 9-5. I work in downtown Milwaukee and am more than willing to come let out any pets during lunch. I am available to stay at your house during the week or weekends. Whatever is required, I would certainly make it work! I would follow every precaution necessary for your pets. I have always adhered to the owners wishing in pet care. My family has a dog with some odd tendencies himself so I am ready for anything!

Ashley took absolutely excellent care of our cat while we were out of the country for a week! I knew from the moment she met our cat during our meet and greet that our little girl was going to be in great hands. Throughout the trip, Ashley reached out with check-ins and photos reflecting how well she was being taken care of. She also responded quickly to any messages and went above and beyond watching our place. We (and our cat) look forward to seeing her again in the future!

Berenice was an excellent sitter. My first time working with her was for an extended period of time and I came home to a clean house and happy, healthy dogs. My two pitties are not trained well on a leash and she did well walking them despite that. She left me at ease while on my trip with daily communication and pictures. We already have our next stay booked with her! Thank you Berenice! 💕

About: Taking care of dogs is something I have enjoyed for much of my life, even a malanois can’t resist my affection! I’m very excited to have fun with your fur baby! I am currently working part time so my availability is open to help you and your lovely pet! I am able to easily balance your pet care with my own schedule. Figuring out your pets needs is crucial, then building a good routine around play, rest and bathroom breaks. Building a good routine is very important for me to develop a good relationship with your friend!

Elaina was great with our 11 week old Australian Shepherd. She watched her for 6 hours a day, took her on walks, played with her, had her stay in her routine of rules we have for her. Overall I would rebook and recommend Elaina to anyone she is kind, responsible, and respectful (and our puppy loved her)!

We could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Catherine stayed at our home with our dog for 12 days and took exceptional care the entire time. She sent daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dog was happy and healthy when we returned. We would absolutely book Catherine again and recommend her to family and friends.

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She communicated wonderfully from the start and even met with me ahead of time to get to know my dog’s routine and feel comfortable with the space. While I was away, she sent daily updates with pictures of Stewart completely abandoning dad to cuddle with his new friend! 😂 I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.

Paige is an amazing, young woman and was so loving to my pups. We had a hard journey driving from FL to Milwaukee, and I wanted someone to hang with them while catching up with friends. I could not have picked anyone better. Within minutes, my little Elsa was in love with Paige and King had a new girl friend! I searched the night before and thank God, Paige was the answer :) Obviously, highly recommend Paige.

I don't want to leave too positive a review (even though it is 100% warranted) because the last time I did that our sitter got so busy we are not able to book them anymore. All joking aside, Sara was beyond wonderful. She provided us with updates (even during a major storm), pictures and most importantly to us, she went above and beyond with our taking care of our post surgical Ollie who is needing a lot of extra care.

We had a wonderful experience with Maiah and would absolutely recommend her. Our beagle can be a bit high-maintenance, but Maiah was so great with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in trustworthy, kind, and capable hands. Maiah was also an excellent communicator--we received regular updates, photos, and quick responses, which made it easy to relax while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
