About: Big dogs, small dogs, medium dogs I can do it all! My family dog of 10+ just past away recently so this is how I'm filling that dog shaped hole in my heart. I live in a house with a large fenced in yard and work from home so your pup will get plenty of attention if you choose to board with me! I'm free at almost any day and any time! I prefer afternoons or evenings but I can do mornings as well if needed. My schedule is very flexible. My family dog of 10 years just died recently but before that he enjoyed a long and fulfilled life. I've also been cat sitting for friends and neighbors years now. The people I live with are allergic to cats so cat sitting is how I get to enjoy being around feline companions!
“Ram and Anu were fantastic! They sent videos, photos and even brought Nikky to visit me at the hospital for a couple hours. They treated Nikky like their own... plenty of love and interaction and fun. I will definitely book them again. I recommend them to anyone who truly loves their pet. I loved the photos of their daughter reading to Nikky and played with him. Their Chocolate Lab was a great buddy for Nikky. They played very well together.”
“Kristina and her family took such great care of our girl, Beau. She was very flexible with flight plan changes and always kept us up to date on how the pup was doing on her vacation. We will book again!”
About: Hi, I’m Kristin, and animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. With years of experience caring for pets and pet sitting on the side, I’ve developed a deep understanding and genuine love for our furry friends. I am proudly certified in first aid and CPR, not only for dogs but for humans as well, ensuring that those in my care are safe and well looked after. My passion is to provide peace of mind to pet owners by offering trustworthy, attentive care for your beloved furbabies. When you choose me, you’re not just hiring a sitter; you’re welcoming someone who truly values the bond you share with your pets and treats them like family. Balancing a full time career with a passion for pet care, I offer reliable pet sitting services during weekends and evenings. I am happy to try to accommodate special requests whenever possible. With a spacious fenced yard and two big pups, we create a welcoming and playful environment for any canine companion. We ensure that every visitor's furry friend feels right at home, entertained and safe. Whether it's a quick visit or a longer stay, I offer a blend of comfort, companionship, and a safe haven for dogs and their humans alike. Being a natural host and devoted dog lover, I look forward to many more shared moments filled with wagging tails and happy paws.
“Samuel took excellent care of our precious boy, Maverick! We appreciated the daily updates, complete with pictures while we were away! We also appreciated the extra TLC given to Maverick by Samuel and his fiancé! Would highly recommend!”
“We were very pleased with Dana. Miley was happy, tired and really seemed to enjoy her stay there. I would definitely recommend Dana and we will most certainly use her again when the need arises. Great sitter!!! A+++++”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was ten. From a litter of beagle puppies to King & Queen to Sandy our cocker spaniel and Pepper the Schnauzer. In married life I had golden retriever and multiple Tri Shelties. Also have the pleasure of grand dogs to care for occasionally. My last Sheltie Cooper passed 10/2020 and I would love to care for your precious fur baby. I am an active retired female with lots of time & energy to care for your loved one. My hours are very open and I can be flexible with schedule I have a nice backyard with long leads/leash to connect pet indoors before letting out. Also very nice trail walks in area. I enjoy keeping your dog in good shape with a little exercise and a calm relaxing home to come back to
About: I grew up with dogs and cats but don’t currently have any pets of my own. Looking to spend some time caring for your pets! I currently work from home three days per week, and I am looking to spend some time outside of my house with animals. I am available daily/weekly for walks, drop-ins, and overnights. I can follow any directions you leave for me in order to best care for your pet. I am available for walking, playing, feeding, and snuggling (first and foremost), but can provide a variety of other services as needed.
About: I have been caring for pets my entire life. When I was young, I started a dog walking service with my friend, that lasted years. I started rover to earn extra income when I had my son, now 7. I would love the opportunity to make your pet a part time family member in our home and give you the reassurance your pet is happy and safe while you are away! I have a 12 year old, neutered male husky that would love a part time buddy, and a neutered male cat. If your little one doesnt like other pets, I can keep them separated, no problem! Your pup is only allowed on the furniture if YOU allow them to be! They are both great with cats and dogs. This gives me the opportunity to work on getting up and active through out the days I dont work. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! My child is in school for most of the day and I usually work a few days out of the week due to my online education needs, so I have the entire day to fit your care into my schedule. I allow animals to get comfortable on their own terms and am not pushy with them getting used to my presence. I enjoy playing and ensuring a clean, calm environment.
“Kevin did a great job with Coral. She took to him right away like she has always known him. It was obvious he interacted with her a lot, throwing a ball and petting. Will certainly use Kevin again.”
“Brittany went above and beyond to make sure my pups felt at home while I was away. They had a blast playing in her fenced-in yard with her sweet pup, Lily. I felt very much at ease knowing that they were extremely well cared for.”
About: Since childhood, I have been responsible for the care of various animals, including dogs, cats, and small animals of diverse species. Among these, dogs hold a special place in my heart as my favorite animal. As a full-time stay-at-home mother, I am constantly at home with my children and dogs. During the summer months, we thoroughly enjoy spending time outdoors. I have a spacious backyard that is not fenced in, but I have a long tie-out if needed for your furry friends. Your pets will be well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hobart
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!
Kerstyn took great care of my dog while I was on a week long international vacation. I really appreciated the meet and greet prior to booking to ensure a great fit. She kept me up to date and shared pictures and videos to ease my mind. I feel like my dog was truly welcomed into her home and wasn't just a job. I highly recommend !

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 204 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hobart. About 92% of Hobart sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
