About: I have taken care of dogs of all stages over the years and I am equipped to care for animals of every age. Most recently my dogs have entered senior status so I have lots of experience providing the care they need, but I am experienced with caring for puppies and adolescent animals as well. I am a student at UWL so I have a fairly flexible schedule. During the week my schedule varies with my class schedule but Thursday through Sunday I am most available, which is perfect for weekends away! I am unable to house animals in my home due to my landlord not allowing pets, so I will treat your animals and your home in a safe and respectful manner. I have pet-sat and babysat numerous times so I am a trustworthy and reliable source that will treat your pets with the care they need and deserve!
“Once again Christine created a phenomenal report card including srops on her walk, a quick Pic of my pup's smile (which I've never been able to get), and a good bye snuggle snap of LuCee ready to take a nap!!! I am always looking forward to Christine's reports of her visit with my girl!!! I get so many details and pictures!!! Christine is extremely thoughtful that way!! Lu and I just love when we set up a Christine visit!!”
“This is my second time using Natalia S. She is wonderful. What really set her apart was her good sense in dealing with a dog that's a little shy with strangers. She never forced the interaction but offered treats and let our Pomsky warm up at her own pace.”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals. Owner of Saint Bernard’s and had horse’s. Assisted with nail trimming and light grooming. Our family has rescued many pets. I do work a FT job. 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
“Rhonda was fantastic! We needed a cat sitter on short notice and turned to the Rover app for the first time—so glad we found her. She responded quickly and was happy to help. We met beforehand and she was so friendly and easy to talk to. While we were away, she kept in great contact, sent us adorable pictures, and clearly took wonderful care of our cat, Q. He warmed up to her and trusts her, which says a lot! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book her again.”
About: Empty nester, retired, and happy to share my home with your pup. We had a wonderful pup for 17.5 years and sadly he passed over the rainbow bridge about three years ago. I know how important it is to have a good home for your pet when you are out of town. I’d be happy to give lots of walks, belly rubs and love! I have a fenced yard but prefer to walk dogs for potty breaks. Experienced with senior pups. I am an early retiree and have remained active, however, have the time to care for a dog. I take walks regularly twice a day so it’s easy to fit dog walking in my routine I have a fenced yard and a large home. I do not allow dogs on my furniture but am happy to play and lay with them on the floor.
About: Hi! My name is Angela, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets in their own homes and believe that remaining in a familiar environment helps reduce stress and anxiety for many animals. I’ve previously provided overnight pet sitting for multiple clients and enjoy creating a calm, consistent routine that keeps pets happy while their families are away. As a healthcare professional, reliability, communication, and attention to detail are a big part of who I am. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, feeding schedules, or simply companionship, I will treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own pets. I am the proud owner of two cats and understand that every animal has their own personality, preferences, and needs. I enjoy spending quality time with both dogs and cats and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I am available for weekend house sitting and pet care. If you are located in Viroqua or La Crosse, I may also be available for weekday house sitting and pet care. When caring for your pets, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are well cared for. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes because I believe pets are happiest and most relaxed in their familiar environment. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and preferences. As a healthcare professional, I value reliability, attention to detail, and clear communication. My goal is to provide safe, compassionate care while treating your home and pets with the utmost respect.
“Sara did a great job with our boys. Theo's shots (diabetic) can be a bit intimidating, at first, and she handled them beautifully. In addition, Louie is quite wary of new people and by mid-week his photos show that he's comfortable enough to come out and supervise what she was doing. We'll undoubtedly be booking future visits and would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who's looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: I really enjoy taking care of my own and my family and friends’ pets. I connect with animals easily and feel good in their presence. I am currently taking care of my aging dog Bilka. I’m not teaching during the summer months and have a lot of availability in July and August. I can pet sit on weekdays and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard where my dog can roam around. My cat does not go outside but has comfortable spaces in the house to sleep or watch what happens outside through the windows. I will follow your safety rules to keep your pet safe and well.
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 10, I've had all sorts, from fish to ferrets I have also done some dog training courses. In my spare time I like taking care of animals, and if I can help others at the same time thats amazing as well. Im also trying to be a dog trainer and this will help. I always make sure my pets have food and water and something to entertain them. If the ones who dont get along too good start trying to play or anything I break it up because I know they dont play on the same level. And with other people's pets I make sure never to rush into things and make sure the animal is comfortable. And I always try my best to follow instructions about pets.
About: I have been caring for animals for several years now and can't get enough of it. Animals have a special place in my heart because of how genuine they are. I've never been more loved than by a dog and never experienced more truth than from a cat! I am available all day every day to look after your pets. My schedule is very flexible and easily accommodating. I've got all the time in the world to hang out and give attention to your pets! Any pet that walks in my house gets plenty of love and affection. This extends to pets I'm looking after in other locations as well. I have no shortage of love for animals!
“We are so grateful to have Araya around to watch our boy for us! She takes the best pictures of him which is always so nice when we’re away. We’ve booked with her multiple times now and are always happy!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have taken care of them since I was young! I love them way more than people. I am counting down till I can have my own little pack of dogs. I’m used to dogs that pull on leashes, but it’s a plus when they’re an easy walker :) I currently am in college so whenever I don’t have classes I am completely free! Once a month for one weekend I work on a military base, but other than that I would love to spend my time with a pup! I am willing to do whatever to keep your dog’s routine normal. I am used to crate training, routine dog walks, etc. No judgement from me :)
About: I have been around dogs since I can remember, and absolutely adore them. I have a big baby of a German shepherd and two cats at home! This summer I am hoping to walk a dog 2-3 times a week during my lunch breaks! I work in La Crosse, I would walk the dog for about 30min if not longer if need be. I can be flexible depending on my work week! I have a German shepherd at home and 2 cats, I am familiar with dealing with high energy dogs. I am not able to board dogs( as much as I would love to ) with already 3 animals at home!

Randy has been wonderful. Charly needed a true dog person who could read his body language and facial expressions. Randy was spot on and worked great with him from the start. He worked off of Charly's energy and let Charly come to him when he was ready. We had 3 meet and greets with a dog that has been historically difficult to find sitters for and now for the first time we have someone we feel really safe with.
This was our first time using Rover. Natalia came over for a meet and greet and my dogs loved her right away. She came for 2 drop in visits while we were out of town for part of a day/night and let us know when she came, what the dogs did while she was with them, sent lots of pictures, and let us know when she was done. It was great to see the doggos were in great hands while we were away. Thanks Natalia! We will definitely reach out to her again for future needs.
I absolutely loved my booking with Cecilia. As someone who’s afraid to leave their fury behind with anyone in general… Cecilia made me feel comfortable, she checked with me and sent me cute photos to show my babies were all good being taken care of! She was super diligent and efficient with her time at my place. She cared for my kitties and I definitely would rebook again with Cecilia!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in La Crosse on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 223 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across La Crosse. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a La Crosse 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.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
