About: Until college, I had never lived in a home without a dog. And from a young age, I was taught everything I need to know about caring for them. Between my parents, we currently have five dogs, a cat, and four guinea pigs. My siblings and I have been working hard for years to care for our fur-babies, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I have work every weekday from 8am to 5pm, so I can’t work on weekdays, but I am completely free on weekends to care for your pup! During weekdays, my schedule limits my communication, which is why I offer same day booking and cancellation for the weekends! I can’t imagine a better way to spend my Saturday and Sunday! Back home, I care for all five dogs differently, based on their breed and personality. Our oldest mutt needs constant brushing, our golden retriever needs weekly shaving, our terrier needs to be leashed when outside, our labrador needs her thunder shirt for storms, and our chihuahua needs training to be friendlier to guests. I am prepared for all kinds of pups!

But with the love of having pet myself it sometimes it can be hard to get home after a long day or running late I am here to help as much as possible I will perfect your pets as if they would be my own fur babies. I will keep them safe and secure at all times. I will only use leashes and or a fenced in yard
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, giving me many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. 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. I love animals and want to combine my passion for pets with a flexible way to help fund my college education. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a friendly check-in during the day, or a dedicated companion for the weekend, I am here to help! My Availability: Weekdays: Flexible morning and afternoon hours (around my class schedule) Weekends: Available Saturdays and Sundays for overnight sitting, extended visits, or daytime care. I am responsible, energetic, and ready to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your pet's routine and how I can help! When I am home from college, I spend most of my time caring for my dog and cat. I ensure they both stay happy, healthy, and hydrated by managing their medications, keeping up with routine potty breaks and litter box cleaning, and attending to their overall well-being—all while giving them plenty of love!
About: I specialize in hiking and outdoor adventures, but am more than capable of normal walks as well. I also take my own dog hiking every weekend, so I know the local trails well. I have experience working with shelter dogs, anxious dogs, reactive dogs, big dogs, senior dogs, and small dogs. My experiences with various dogs and trainers have given me a good understanding of dog body language. Under the guidance of licensed trainers I have worked through separation anxiety and fear-based reactivity with my own dog, and resource guarding with a family-owned dog. So rest assured that if I'm told a dog has any fears or triggers to avoid while on walks, I will take that seriously. I am comfortable with large dogs, even large dogs that pull. I am capable of giving dogs' medications as my own dog is on several for orthopedic surgical recovery, so I have quite a bit of experience doing so. For outdoor adventures, I have done various trail hiking with family-owned dogs, rescue dogs, and my own personal dog. In addition, I have taken several small dogs out boating. I have hiked parts of the Appalachian Trail and Superior Trail, spent weeks camping, and done countless outdoor adventures. I hike rain or shine! Choosing me you can be sure your canine companion will have a safe, fun, enriching experience in the outdoors. I'm currently in college so I am available after class which is most days after 12pm. After 2pm I am available for long hikes and walks. In addition, I take my dog on a 30 to 40 min walk at 5pm and available to take additional dogs with us. I take safety with the utmost seriousness. When going on hiking trails I ensure that I bring a pet first aid kit with me, collapsible water, and a spare leash for emergencies. I also have a vet hotline on speed dial as well as two local vets saved in my phone. In addition if we are traveling anywhere by car I will ensure the dog is safely transported as I own a variety of dog seat belts and car seats.

About: Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities! I offer plenty of walks (yes, even in winter!) to keep your pup active and engaged. Whether it’s strolling around the lake or snuggling at home, I’m here to ensure they feel safe, loved, and right at home—even when you’re away. I currently make my own schedule which means I can be flexible and I’m available every other week for overnights and most weekdays for walks. I have a 13 y/o Border Collie that gets leashed walks. We love walks! Apollo loves making new friends unless they are a Boxer breed.
About: Hello, I’m Ashlyn! If you were to ask anyone who knows me what I’m like, the first thing they would tell you is that I am animal OBSESSED! I have been surrounded by animals + cats alike my entire life. I currently own two big dogs (Pitbull +Aussie) + one small dog (Shih Tzu) and a cat! I strive to ensure your pet has the best experience possible while you are away. Coming from a pet parent myself I know the fear of leaving your bestfriend in someone else’s care can be a lot. That’s why I believe it is important to keep you in the loop for a stress-free time away, while also giving your animal plenty of enrichment and love to distract their worried mind while you are gone. I am experienced with a wide range of different kinds of dogs. From reactive, friendly, and anxious I have seen it all. I am more then willing to work through quirks your animal has in order to make their experience the best it can be! Some training skills I am well-versed in is leash training, socialization, basic manners, puppy care, senior care, and separation anxiety issues. I am so excited to meet your animal and give it the best experience possible! I currently work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. Hours vary week to week. Let me know your preferred schedule and we can make it work! I am absolutely able to leave work (distance permitting) during my break to let your animal outside and let out some energy if needed! After work I am able to give your pet some exercise whether that is a walk or playing with some toys after work. For house-sitting/ drop ins- I am a firm believer that following a similar routine to what the owner (you) follows will give your pet the least stressful experience possible. I will stick to your potty schedule for your animal as well as feeding. As for exercise, I am up to whatever your dog or cat prefers! I can go for walks, play fetch, provide enrichment with feeding time or play with toys. I am always willing to go to nearby park with your pup if preferred! Whatever your pet loves and makes them feel the safest! For dog-walking, I am willing to walk however long your animal needs! Does your pet have a favorite route? Let me know and I will follow it! Any nearby trails or parks? I am always down to visit them with your pup if wanted! I have personal experience with leash-pulling and reactivity so as long as I am made aware of these things and have met your dog, I am more then willing to work through these things on our walk! I am big on taking my dogs and shelter dogs to parks or big areas to run or explore. If this is something you would be interested in, I could totally take your dog out for an hour to exercise them!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in La Crescent. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in La Crescent after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
