About: I grew up with cats and dogs, love animals, provide love and affectionate care for them. Currently care for 1 dog, 6 cats and 6 bunnies. I'm passionate about animal care. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most holidays, or weekends. Enjoy playing and exercising with pets. 🩷💚 I can give plenty of exercise and playtime. I will brush dogs and cats. Love ❤️ to cuddle and comfort them throughout my time with them.
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!
“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 am a part time dental assistant with a lot of love for animals, especially dogs. I’m from Colombia and maybe I don't write or speak English well, but I try to make the communication with the pet owner the best. 😊 This job would be perfect for my life schedule because I can manage my own time. I'm almost always available if you have any questions let me know I always try to make the pet feel comfortable and very happy. I like that they play and relax at the same time. I l
About: I’m a dog person through and through! I’ve only ever owned dogs my whole life, and I’d never have it any other way. Training them, playing with them, taking care of them, it all brings me so much joy. To me, dogs are one of life’s greatest gifts, a true blessing from God. They love without conditions and make every day a little brighter. I wouldn’t trade a single wagging tail or muddy paw print for anything. I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I’m great with communication and always happy to keep you in the loop. Just give me a quick call or text, and I’d be more than glad to update you on how your dog is doing. Your pup will feel right at home with me! I have a fenced yard and a loving Australian Shepherd named Stryda, who’s sweet and playful with all dogs. Your dog will always have fresh water, plenty of playtime, and a comfy, safe space to relax. I’ll keep them active, well cared for, and showered with attention throughout the day. Whether it’s a good play session, a cozy nap, or just some cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, and I’m always happy to keep you updated however you’d like.
About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own. I do work mon-thurs 3-9pm and Saturday 11-4. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.
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.
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’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!
About: For years I have walked and taken care of my neighborhoods dogs. I even had a dog myself and would take him on walks everyday. I now have a cat with my significant other and love playing with him. When I get home from work I like to go on walks, but I miss walking my late dog so walking and taking care of someone else animal would make me happy and also them. Making sure the yard is safe and doors or fences are close before letting the animals out. Making sure everything is put away and not in reach of the animals unless it is their toys or things meant for them.
About: Hi there! I have had raised dogs and cats since the age of about 12. I love all animals and am now teaching my 2 young girls to love and nurture all creatures 🥰 we love dogs and cats and are happy to help u with all your pet care needs ☺️ I currently WFH in the evenings and me and 2 little ones love being out and about during the day, we would love to stop in and feed or walk your pets or have your pup come stay for the day to get lots of pets, love , and cuddles I live near menominee park in a lovely quiet neighborhood, I have a lead for outside and we have plenty of space inside. I do have 3 cats, when dogs are in our home they stay upstairs and I make sure they and the dog have the space they need.
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.
“Very reliable! Katie took excellent care of our cats, bearded dragon, frogs, hermit crab and fish while we were on vacation. She sent pictures every day and communicated about how they were doing.”
“I have waited 1 week to write this review because I didn't even have the words to describe my FIRST time ever using a pet sitter service with strangers coming into my home and handeling/caring-for my animals. My husband and I had it all worked out for a family member to care for our animals and that fell through two days before we were suppose to leave. Well... I could not have had a more positive experience with Christie and her team ? I felt comfortable with them from the moment we met at the Meet & Greet! I left the country the next day and felt such a peace knowing my cats would be cared for. We left 3 kittens in Christies care but we also had 2 other momma cats in the house. They were kind enough to check on the well being of my momma cats while at the house caring for our kittens. One kitten scratched her eye 2 days before we left, so Christie and her team administered eye drops 2x/daily for us. They fed our babies, gave fresh water and played with them. They sent pictures and detailed updates on the personalities and well-being of our kittens. It helped us to enjoy our trip and not worry about our animals while being gone. There is always a small sense of fear trusting someone you don't know to come into your home and take good care of your babies. Christie, her fiancé and daughter exceeded my expectations and put all fears to rest. They truly go above and beyond and I am happy to share my experience with others. We will definitely be using their wonderful services again!! ? THANK YOU SO MUCH Team Christie!!!”
“Gabriella was able to help us out last minute and was a lifesaver! She communicated throughout her visits and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Can't wait to book with her again!”
“Our dog had the best time with Sasha this week. She kept him busy, engaged, and entertained each visit. The daily reports were very detailed and enjoyable to read with plenty of pictures to view, which were always the highlight of my day. Sasha is very reliable, caring, conscientious, and easy to communicate with. I know my dog is already looking forward to another visit!”

Meghan is great! Very friendly and clearly loves dogs. She arrived on time and followed the schedule / notes for the drop in. She sent photos as well so we could see how our dog was doing! Left the house clean too. We will definitely reach out to Meghan next time we need someone to help with our Golden Retriever.

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.
