About: I’m a MIAD student in Milwaukee. I’ve been pet sitting and walking for a while. And I’ve worked with many dogs that are in training. Including puppies/dogs in service dog training. So I can help with training if needed. And I’ve worked with many other different animals like reptiles and cats I’m a junior college student at MIAD Milwaukee. I have classes on Monday-Wednesday. But I got time available around my classes during the day to walk or watch pets. And I am available on every other Thursdays! Heres my class schedule if you’d like me to walk them or if you’d like me to stop by to feed or hang out with your pet around any of these days and times: Monday classes: 8:00am-12:15pm & 3:00pm-8:30pm Tuesday classes: 12:30pm-5:35pm Wednesday classes: 8:00am-11am & 3:00pm-5:45pm Thank you so much for understanding my school schedule. Very busy school year. Note: I sadly don’t have a car here. So I’ll be walking to the destination to walk or watch your pet. I live in a dorm so it may be hard for me to have pets at my place. But I’ve done pet sitting many times in my life and feed them and let them out whenever needed. And as for play time I can stick around to hang out with pets and spend time with them. And for walking I’ve done many walks with all sorts of dogs.
“I really appreciate Megan and Richard for watching my dog Clover this week! The photo’s they upload to the website, along with the super fast response time really took stress off while traveling. I’d absolutely recommend!”
“We are so happy with Joanne and plan to continue to use her to help care for our dog! She was very communicative with me and immediately gained the trust of our pup. She is also conscientious of our dog's specific needs - thank you!!”
About: I have had animals all my life and feel a real connection to them. My dog Kyra is my soul dog. I've had her since college and she's the best dog I could ever imagine owning. She is a 60 lb lab dog who has to be attached to my hip at all times, which I am perfectly okay with. I grew up having cats, but my husband is allergic so I would love to get some cat quality time in by taking care of yours :) I love being outside so taking your dogs on long walks would be an honor. I promise to make them feel loved in the little time I may get to spend with them. My dog can play pretty hard so I am a bit weary of watching smaller dogs around her, so I will leave it up to your discretion. She did become best friends with a small weenie dog (who thought he was much bigger), so it really just depends on your dog's personality. I would suggest meet and greets before hand for these situations :) Due to Kyra's high energy and the fact that I live in an apartment, we do go outside many times throughout the day as weather permits, and even go to the dog park whenever possible, so your dog is sure to have lots of outside time.
About: I’ve been a primary dog sitter for friends and family for over 5 years. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of any size and I’m able to care for up to 2 dogs at a time. Weekdays after 4 pm is the perfect time for a walk! Weekends I’m available from sunrise to sunset, so just let me know what works for you. When I care for dogs, my primary concern is they’re safety and comfortability with me. I’m patient and sociable with all furry friends, and will ensure that their needs are met while in my care.
“Laurie is proactive, easy to communicate with, and has rockstar credentials. We've booked with Laurie many times and I always feel assured that my cat is in good hands with her!”

Gwyneth P.
“Gwennie is a truly remarkable individual who possesses an incredible amount of care and compassion for animals. Not only is she incredibly trustworthy, as evidenced by the numerous times she's taken care of my 85lb Rhodesian Ridgeback, but she goes above and beyond to make sure that he is well taken care of. She doesn't just feed and walk him, but she ensures that he gets plenty of quality time, engaging him in play or trick training for treats. In addition, she always sends me pictures of my fur baby so that I can see for myself that he's doing okay. Her passion for animals is also evident in her artwork - it's definitely worth asking to see some of her incredible animal-inspired creations!”

Historic Third Ward pet parents share their Rover experiences
Always excellent. I have repeatedly worked with her to do drop in visits and always had a great experience
Jamie took such great care of Buttercup! She was thoughtful and asked great questions when she first came over to meet me and the cat, and her updates were thorough and fun to read. I’m so grateful to her!
Travis was great. From the pre-meeting to the follow-up, he was attentive and went beyond expectations. My cat is not the friendliest and despite that, Travis spent time in her presence even when I didn't expect it. He sent me a photo with each visit. I anticipate having him look after Finnoula again in the future.
Berenice came by for an initial consultation, and I was immediately impressed by her calm, reassuring energy. I felt comfortable with her right away, which means a lot—especially since one of my dogs is quite reactive. She took the time to get to know both dogs and made a thoughtful, genuine effort to understand their needs. I already feel confident leaving them in her care.
We always appreciate Lily's caring service. She even was able to accommodate a late date change, which was greatly appreciated. She always leaves a great report and pictures. We highly recommend her!
Jessica is very friendly and was great with my cat, Mer. She’s very communicative, provides great updates, and sends lots of cute photos each time she checks out of her visits. I felt super comfortable with Jessica being in my house while I was away and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! 🤩
We are so happy with Joanne and plan to continue to use her to help care for our dog! She was very communicative with me and immediately gained the trust of our pup. She is also conscientious of our dog's specific needs - thank you!!
Alexandra was fantastic! She took great care of our cats—feeding, playing, cleaning litter—and kept us updated while we were away. She even brought in our mail! So thoughtful and reliable. Highly recommend!
Alexis was great! Very friendly and good communicator. She is one of the few people that our cat has come out to say hi to while we’re gone. We were confident our cat was well taken care of!
Heather was amazing!! Detailed notes and cute pictures. Our little guy was happy and healthy when we got home :) we will definitely be booking with her again!
Jasmine did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. Making sure he took his meds and wearing him out!
Jahaira took great care of my senior kitty! She was excellent at responding and sending photo updates, as well as giving my cat her needed medication and wanted play time
If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and great with dogs, I highly recommend booking with Emma. She was punctual and communicative. I highly recommend!
Put a smile on my face with Adrienne’s updates and photos of my dog with each visit. Calming to know my girl was well loved while I was away!
Jenna is always a great choice for my pup. Communication is great and she always responds in a timely manner. I highly recommend Jenna for your sitter needs !
Wonderful service! Very detailed about this visit and sent a bunch of photos of my kitty. Definitely gave me reassurance that all was going well.
Always so kind, reliable, and responsible with our crazy pup. We feel so comfortable knowing Megan’s available to check on our dog and play with him while we’re away!
Incredibly dependable! Appreciate Valerie’s professionalism and commitment to make sure our pups are happy and safe.
Quinesha was great! She made my first experience using Rover so good! I can’t wait to book her again my little three loved her!
Kayla did an amazing job watching my kitten, Archie! She provided excellent care, sent adorable pictures after every visit, and was very responsive. When I got home Archie was his usual happy and playful self and it was clear that Kayla’s visits really helped limit the stress of me being away for both of us. I’ll absolutely book her again!
