About: I have taken care of my two pit bulls since the start of high school. I love giving affection to them, including others I have met in person. I used to have a senior dog who had joint problems and needed help on the stairs, bed, and sofa. I also love meeting my friends’ pets and giving them the same affection as I do with my own pets. I do drop in visits, house sitting, and dog walking. I would love to give your fur babies a bunch of affection and care. I’ll make sure to update you regularly with pictures so you know that your pets are in safe hands. Your pets safety is my top priority. For dog walking, I’ll make sure they stay off the road when the pavement is too hot and/or a car is coming. I will also stay alert to my surroundings.

“Bella is fantastic! Not only is she responsive, she is kind, professional and so amazing with my fur babies! My one pup is disabled as well so he can be a lot of extra work, and she never makes us feel like it is a bother or anything but a joy for her to get to see the boys again. I can’t say enough great things about Bella. :)”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly love caring for them. I grew up with a variety of pets including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and bunnies, which gave me a deep appreciation for animals of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience providing pet care, including overnight stays, administering medications, and keeping pets comfortable and happy in their home environment. I always focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine—whether that’s mealtime schedules, daily walks, playtime, or a bit of training and structure. I’m also experienced in caring for senior pets and can support their specific needs with patience and care. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I’m happy to send daily updates and photos so you can stay connected and see all the love your pets are getting. Send me a message any time for a quick meet & greet or a free short walk—no commitment, just pets and peace of mind! I have both a dog and cat that I take care of every day. My dog is a four year old energetic lab/springer mix and I have a two year old orange kitty. I love getting outside and having playtime or going on walks with my dog and playing with my cat. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, following any specific instructions you provide—like feeding schedules, medications, or routines. When pets stay with me, my home is set up to be a safe and welcoming space where they can relax and feel at ease. During drop-in visits, I’m respectful of your home and make sure to keep everything just as I found it. In all cases, I take the time to build trust and move at each pet’s pace to ensure they feel secure and loved. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets.

I work part-time at a pet boarding facility where I handle daily care for animals of all ages and temperaments. I am comfortable administering oral and topical medications, managing specialized treatments, and ensuring every pet feels safe and comfortable Hi! I am a current student at UW-La Crosse looking to help family’s care for their furry members.

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs my entire life, I’ve owned rescues and know how to correctly deal with any issues they might have with their trauma. I also have a 16 year old westie who’s still living his best life. I will never mistreat your pet. I just graduated college with a bachelors in business administration and a minor in marketing. So I am currently job hunting so I have a lot of free time. I will follow any instructions to the T! I can let your pets out however much they need and if they are being too roudy I can put them inside or in a kennel if needed.
About: I have around 10 years of experience with dog sitting and dog walking! I am comfortable sitting and walking both small and large dogs, and am happy to do longer term overnight stays if needed as well. I’m excited to spend time with your furry friend! I am currently working part time, and my schedule is very flexible. I am available at most times during both the weekends and weekdays, and am comfortable with overnight stays as well. My yard is unfenced, but my neighborhood is very walkable. I have a cat at home who is very docile and friendly, and has lived with other animals before. I have an empty spare room that is usable for animals to stay overnight.
“Morrigan was absolutely incredible with our dogs, Mabel and Lucy. We truly could not have asked for a better person to care for them while we were away. He went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and it was obvious that he genuinely cared about them. We felt completely at ease knowing Mabel and Lucy were in such good hands. Everything was handled perfectly, and we came home to two very happy dogs. We would absolutely trust Morrigan with them again and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an attentive, dependable, and caring pet sitter. Truly a 10/10 experience!”
“Amanda was awesome with my quirky dog Hazel. She was professional throughout the whole process. We haven’t had a lot of different dog sitters because our dog Hazel is a little quirky. Amanda came at the time we asked her to, she took Hazel on hikes, sent pictures to us throughout the weekend and kept us updated on how things were going. Our house looked exactly y the same as it did when we left. We will 100% have Amanda back to help with Hazel for any future stays!”

Faith was absolutely incredible. I sometimes procrastinate so I booked with Faith later than I originally wanted, so she was unable to stay the night with our dogs. But she responded to my request right away and sent prompt responses every time. I felt a little bad for our dogs at first knowing nobody would be there at night. But Faith’s detail to care, information she consistently shared with me, along with pictures, and her clear love for animals, made those feelings disappear so fast. My boys absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thanks again Faith! :)
Laren did a great job caring for our two large dogs and our cat. She communicated well, kept us updated while we were away, and left the house in great shape. She also went the extra mile to help calm our anxious dog during the thunderstorms we had while we were gone. We really appreciated the extra care and would definitely recommend her!
Kyra was so great with our household of pets! They were so comfortable with her that the cats snuggled in with her the very first day. We got picture updates daily and the house was cleaner than when we left. It was so nice being on vacation knowing our pets were in great hands. We will definitely using her services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Holmen is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $57 per night. 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.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Holmen walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Holmen maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Holmen choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
