“Caitlin and Samuel were a wonderful dog sitter! They treated my dog’s like her own, made sure all needs were met, and kept me updated with messages and photos. I could tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!””
“Michelle was lovely to work with and very responsive. She was always forward about what was happening and on time. She definitely loves animals and understands how much we love our pets!”
About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
About: We had a mini schnauzer growing up, who we adored! She taught us so much patience with the insistent barking, so I can handle anything!(: I’m looking to walk dogs when I have down time over the weekend, or on shorter days of work during the week (Tuesday, Thursday, some Fridays). I will be primarily walking dogs, but I will purchase a long leash for letting dogs hang out in my yard if we dog-sit. Our yard is half an acre, so plenty of space to run.
About: I've been taking care of my friends, family and neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. Anything from daily to week long periods I have fed, walked, and cared for those animals, as well as overnight stays at either my home or theirs. Pet care fits extremely well into my routine, I am an online college student with a majority of free time and flexibility. I am typically up early and readily available most of the time. I remain especially cleanly in my own home and clients, making sure to clean/ tidy up after the pet as well as stay attentive to their needs. Another way I care for pets is by enjoying their company, talking, playing and interacting with them on walks and at home to make sure they are safe, happy and attended to.
About: I have been traveling for a while, so I took a break from dog sitting, but I am ready to spend my time with all the lovely pets again! Through a mix of my family pets and dog sitting I have experience with training, feeding, walking, and caring for dogs with very different personalities. I don’t think it’s the right time for me to own my own dog, but I’m excited to love on and take care of yours! My favorite thing is getting outside as much as possible with dogs to help us both get a little exercise in. I have lots of time to take care of your pup! For the most part I’m available everyday of the week unless my calendar says differently! Wherever we are, I will be sure to explore the neighborhood with your pup! I love to get out and go on walks as often as possible. While we’re in the house, lots of playing with toys and cuddles will be given!
About: Pet care for 20+ years! I have a true heart for animals and a passion for exercising with them to promote their physical, mind and spiritual health! I will love yours like my own!❤️ I work full time M-F in pediatric health care and take care of our animals before and after work. I am also free most weekends! My husband works from home and has a flexible schedule during the day. Our daughter (11 years old) also loves to help with the animals! We are an outdoorsy, nature-loving family! We love to walk the dogs in the neighborhood and let them play and sniff all over our large yard. We currently have 2 dogs living with us - Oreo, a terrier, and Duke, a tripod yellow lab! Both are friendly rescue pups:)
About: Thank you for considering me to be your trusted pet sitter! I have had dogs in my life since I was a young child. I have owned my own dogs for 11 years. I have experience with both puppies and seniors alike! My family and I are definitely “dog” people in every way! I offer personalized, one on one care for your furry family member! I currently work full time from home with a very flexible schedule and am home all weekends as well! I can accommodate your dogs routine into my day! I have experience with giving both oral and injection medication. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around regular drop-in visits and dog walks, making sure each pet receives consistent care, attention, and exercise. I plan my routes and time blocks efficiently so I can be dependable and flexible for clients, whether they need recurring walks or occasional drop-ins. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s a priority in my routine rather than something I squeeze in. I provide attentive, in-home drop-in care so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. During each visit, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, take care of potty breaks or litter box needs, provide playtime, walks if requested, and plenty of affection. I also follow any specific routines or instructions the owner provides, administer basic medications if needed, and keep the home tidy by cleaning up pet-related messes. I always prioritize safety, consistency, and communication, and I send updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Baylynn provides great communication leading up to the appointment and during. She’s prompt when responding to requests and also with her services. She’s a pleasure to work with and the dogs love her.”
About: Growing up I've always been surrounded by pets of all sorts; dogs and cats and many others. Currently since I've moved out on my own I have a few of my own furbabies (my three cats Penny & Minx & Cheezeburger) that being said I live in my own home.If you choose me then you are helping me give some love to a furry critter who might need that extra help from a new special friend! I currently work first shift and have oodles of love to give hense why I 3 furbabies of my own haha. Typically you can find me fixing things around my house and with summer around the corner I crave to walk more hense why I think being a dog walker would be a interesting twist on how to spice up my life. Depending on your service that is needed we could further talk about what the expectations are. May it be a walk or feeding or simply to give them the good old belly rubs; just being there will be quite the joy.
About: I’ve had dogs since a small child! I currently have two and often watch family members as well when they are needing it. I’m very passionate about dogs. I work in a school so I have summers off which leaves my schedule very flexible! I’m usually around on the weekends and love being active so walking/running pets is one of my hobbies. I will care for your pet exactly how you ask me to. I will ensure all of their needs are met while also providing them love and comfort while you’re away!
“Alexandra was wonderful when she furbaby sat for us a few weeks back. I was very much in a rush to find someone, because our original person canceled last minute. She came over for a meet and greet the day before we were set to leave and the pack instantly took to her. She will be furbaby sitting for us this weekend and we are so thankful to have found alenandra on rover ans not have to stress about our babies while being away. Thanks alexandra!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs on my own since middle school. We've always had a family dog in the household as well as friends and neighbors who would need help with their little ones. I have a BS in Animal Science, have worked as an emergency vet assistant/triage tech for the last 3 years, and have some professional dog training experience. I currently have 2 guinea pigs, and a 2-year-old AND 1-year-old pitty/lab mix that love to come to work with me and go on all sorts of outdoor adventures! Needless to say, my life revolves around animals and I don't know what the world would be like without them! I would love to get to know your little one and be there for them (and you!) when needed! Good communication and planning helps me arrange my schedule and make myself available for your needs. I often have days off during the week so I can spend time with our furry friends while their families are at work. Having worked in an emergency pet hospital keeps me on my toes and I always put safety first. When it comes to walking outside, I double check collar/harness every time to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit that can't be slipped out of. I also know dog body language and signs of illness to monitor and keep people and pets safe!
About: Let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, or behaviors that I can account for or help with. I would love to help. If you have plants that need watering, mail, or packages that need to be brought in, I can help with that too! I'm retired and love traveling around Wisconsin and the world. Slow traveling is my favorite. I can explore new neighborhoods, cities, and local attractions without being rushed. I will follow your directions for your house and loved ones. Let me know the extra duties like watering, mail, or garbage routine. The house is left cleaner than I found it.
About: I very much enjoy taking care of animals on my free time! I have over 8 years of experience with dog and cat sitting! I also have worked at a daycare and boarding facility to meet the needs to pets that come to stay and play! I have an open schedule to provide sitting for your pet! I currently have one young beagle who lives with me! And I know I can make time to help others who have pets that may have a busy schedule! I am accommodating for your pets needs and will provide caring and fun experience for your pet! I love to reward your pet for good behavior and to connect a stronger relationship with your pet!
About: I love all animals. At the moment I have only 1 cat. In the past I have had 2 dogs. My last dog cooper was such a good dog he would teach other dogs what to do doing a walk with another dog. My cat has taught me that all cats are individuals in like different things. My cat hate dry food and love wet seafood. Thank to my cat I also have the toys to help your cat :). I just love pets of all kinds.I have so low rates because I want to just hang out with your animals. It's always been about the animals for me. My name is Nicole but I go by Molly. You may know me from my main job at Meijer. I really love animals and just want to hangout with them. I really want to hangout with dogs. I take care of every animal as if they were my own. I use what I have learned with my own pets to help your pet. With your help I can provide the best care for your pet. Ones I get to know what they like and don’t like only then I can truly care for your pet.
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, cows, goats etc. so I have always been around and taking care of animals. I regularly take care of friends and families dogs/cats and am very patient. I used to work in nursing and most recently as a chemist, but am looking for supplemental animal love and interactions! I have availability and flexibility as needed Sunday through the week. I can do mornings, evenings or afternoons. I can accommodate most changes as this is my primary work. I have a closed in backyard and basement. I have two cats that can be separated or blocked off to separate areas of the house.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hortonville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Hortonville 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Hortonville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
