“Bobbi was a fabulous sitter to my dog Duke. She’s caring, responsive and connected with us often while watching Duke. Her yard is a playground for all pups. Truly grateful to have found her! One of my best experiences with Rover!”

About: Hi, I’m Bonnie! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra support. I currently share my home with a sweet 11-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Hannah, a playful 6-month-old Golden Mountain Dog named Ziggy, and an curious cat named Anakin, so I’m very comfortable caring for multiple pets with different needs and personalities. Friends and family regularly trust me to dog-sit and walk their pets, and I can honestly say I’ve never met a dog I didn’t fall in love with. Whether it’s long walks, backyard play, cuddles on the couch, or keeping up with feeding/medications, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. That’s why I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you always feel connected and reassured. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life because I’m already spending time walking, playing with, and caring for my own pets. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I can easily adjust my routine to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for. Your pets will get plenty of belly rubs, backyard zoomies in my fenced yard, and lots of love and attention. At home or yours, I stick to their routines and keep you updated with happy pics so you know they’re safe, loved, and having fun.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels — from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive attention are to your pet’s well-being. I’ve also worked with shy or reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable following any special instructions to make sure your pup feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is currently wide open, so I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your dog’s needs — whether it’s daily walks, last-minute bookings, or ongoing care. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Let’s find a time that works best for you and your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always keep dogs on-leash during walks (unless in a secure, off-leash area with your permission), avoid unsafe routes, and stay alert to other animals or hazards. I closely follow your instructions and routines to keep your pet feeling secure and cared for.
About: My partner Jonah and I are huge dog people, eager to take care of your fur baby! We unfortunately are not in a place yet to have our own, so we are using Rover as a way to spend some quality time with dogs in the area. Jonah grew up with dogs and is used to having them around. My family got a puppy named Ember several years ago that I am very familiar with caring for as well. Though we don’t have a dog in the house, we have watched a few dogs here and know it is a safe and welcoming environment for them. Jonah works a flexible job and can be home with the dog during the day, while I work as a teacher and am always home in the evenings and on weekends. Your fur baby will always have the attention and care that they need in our household! We are open to walking dogs, pet sitting, and overnight boarding, all of which we have experience with. We hope you consider using our services! Skye - Available on weekdays after 3:30pm and most weekends all day Jonah — Flexible job where he chooses his hours - can be available most weekdays and weekends So between both of us, someone would always be there to care for your pet(s)! :) We do not have a fenced in yard but are used to taking dogs out on leash. We have a very spacious backyard and park nearby that we love to walk in, as well as a dog park close by. We are very empathetic with animals and approach them where they’re at, since all pets have differing needs and preferences. We like to make your pet feel as home and comfortable as possible while you’re away!
“Denise was AMAZING with our dog & her dog Daisy made our dog Scruffy feel so at home!!!!! We definitely recommend her. She was also very accommodating & took great care of our Dogter.”

“Teressa was great to work with leading up to and through our departure out of town. We had a nice, short meet n greet. She was very flexible with us, and took great care of our sweet pup. She sent regular updates and photos unlike a previous Rover we used. We look forward to booking Teressa again soon!”

“Sarah & Jonathan U. were absolutely wonderful, I received pictures and update daily. They gave my fur baby so much love, I was scared he wouldn't want to come home. He got to walk, run, lounge around, play with other puppies and people and received plenty of cuddles and belly rubs. I highly recommend booking with them.”


About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and treat every dog like my own. I have the most experience with hunting breeds and high-energy dogs, but I’ve also cared for small dogs. Since I miss having my own dogs around every day, caring for others’ pets truly fills that void and is something I genuinely love doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I have most nights and weekends available. I’m even willing to bring your dog along with me when possible so they have plenty of company and attention. Daytime availability Monday–Friday between 8am–5pm is more limited, but I’m willing to discuss options for check-ins in the Howard/Suamico area. I make sure each pet is well cared for, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while you’re away. Depending on the dog’s needs and your preferences, that can include walks, playtime outside, backyard exercise, or trips to the dog park if allowed. My goal is to keep them active, happy, and on a routine that feels familiar and stress-free.
“Emily and her family took great care of my pup! She send lots of pictures and I truly felt like she cared for my dog as her own. Her house was clean and inviting and she was easy to communicate with. I would book with her again!”

About: I have been a dog owner for 6years and a cat owner for 16, I have 2 beagles, age 3 and 6. My oldest gets ear infections often, hes had back problems and had a benine melanoma removed from his head so I understand the extra care some animals may need. I know stubbornness. Iv trained them as puppies and they are great with other dogs or pets. I would do anything to live my dream and care for other pets the way I do. I have so much love and compassion, pets are the people you want to talk to. I lost my cat of 16yrs and it hit me hard, animals are my world. I give all my attention to pets, I am a very observant, fun, loving, adventurous, caring pet owner. I do work a full time job but I'm willing to help out with any pets when im done saturdays, if need me to pick them up to board I will. Anytime of day Sundays and Mondays and I'm free for holidays too! I have a fenced in yard with 2 loving, fun, outgoing,lazy,heartwarming beagles you would ever meet that love company! I will be out watching all dogs who are over. There will be timeout areas if someone gets out of hand. I absolutely love walks! No matter the weather. I love meeting new animals and experiencing the world in their eyes. Your dog will be my dogs friends by the end. I will leave an imprint on your animals life, I want to be the best I can for your pets. Any needs your animal has I got it. I love helping others out and experiencing different places and how other pets lifestyles are.
“Alex was great! Fantastic communications from the meet and greet through drop off and pick up. He sent photos of our pups almost every day. They were well taken care of and happy when we picked them up!”

“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”

About: I have horses and dogs along with all sorts of animals my whole life. I have assisted with litters of puppies and worked years in a veterinary clinic. My animals are my family and I will care for yours in the same way! I work Monday through Friday 8-5 and am off on the weekends I would be available after work and on the weekends. If that works let me know! I also take my small dog to work with me and my springer goes to daycare next to my work. I have a large fenced in backyard! Pets are like family in my home!! They are allowed on furniture! I have many years of experience from 6 pounds to 150 pound Great Danes.
“Sara and her family provided a wonderful home for our two dogs while we were on a trip! They have a large fenced-in backyard where they could run around and play with Luna. They came home happy and pooped from all their fun. We are so grateful, and will definitely use them in the future!”

“Anu and her family could not have been more amazing and helpful with my Husky! We had to travel last minute and Anu and her family were there for us last minute so I didn’t have to board our dog. We are so grateful for her great communication, lovely family, abundance of updates and photos, and the unmatchable peace of mind we had while away. Thank you Anu and your amazing family!”


“We loved Cassandra! She kept us well informed of Ginger's stay while we were away. She told us each time Ginger was administered her seizure medication which was so helpful in making me at ease. She took her for playtime and we could tell she treated her like she was her own! Our plans changed a bit and Cassandra was bery accommodating! Highly recommend!”

“I was gone for 10 days and was nervous about leaving my dogs. They had fun making new friends and were well taken care of. Thanks to Melissa for the great job. She reassured this nervous mama via text and let me know my girls were doing great. She even reported that my picky eater ate!”

Hobart pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had a fantastic experience with Holly and Mike! They were excellent communicators, keeping us updated regularly and sending lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. They were also incredibly flexible with our schedule, which we really appreciated. On top of that, they are just genuinely kind people who clearly care about the pets they look after. We will absolutely be using their services again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any dog owner looking for reliable and caring sitters!
