“Maria was great! While on vacation we got delayed an extra night due to a tropical storm and she was quick to help and eased any worry of having a safe place for our dog. Chewy is a great pup but in need of a little extra attention and Maria easily fulfilled this as she only watched one dog at a time having Chewy return to us happy and healthy! We were also able to see updates on him through the pictures she sent and could see his personality still shining through as he was definitely comfortable in her care.”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Our one year old Bernese mountain dog, Maize, spent four nights with Jeff. She is curious, loves to be outside and check out new smells. His yard was perfect for her! Jeff was perfect for her. He took her on walks and gave her plenty of time to explore his backyard. Maizie was exhausted and slept the whole afternoon when we brought her home. I'm sure she was dreaming about her new friend. Super Experience! We already have another time booked.”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Melissa and her mother were very welcoming and accommodating for our stay with them. Due to a change in plans on my part, she allowed me to pick up my dog earlier than arranged which was very nice. They notified me of my dog's progress and sent pictures of her stay.”
“Clooney Marie was very well taken care of by Chase & Jessica. This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous at first. Highly recommend this couple. This dog mama was so happy my girl was in a good place with good people.”
“This was our first time boarding our 7 month old puppy and the experience couldn’t have been any better. Anuradha and her family took amazing care of our dog. They sent us photos and videos everyday. Our dog slept with them at night and got to run around with their dog everyday. We will definitely be boarding here again in the future when we need too!”
“We had a great experience with Matthew! He took great care of our dog while we were away, sent photo updates and had great communication. Pickup and dropoff was when he said and when so smooth! Would love to send our pup with him again!!”
“Sara and her family provided a wonderful home for our two dogs while we were on a trip! They have a large fenced-in backyard where they could run around and play with Luna. They came home happy and pooped from all their fun. We are so grateful, and will definitely use them in the future!”
“Sue & Mark were the perfect hosts for Lucy. Lucy is shy but she warmed up to them right away. They welcomed her into their home and kept me updated. I will be scheduling with them again in the near future.”
“Amazing!!! They sent pics every day, had a really cute house in a great walking neighborhood! Their youngest dog was a great buddy for my high energy doggo! As much as I hate leaving my dog, I would have zero concerns about leaving him with Kelly and their entire family again.”
“Kristina treated Pippi like part of her family. She clearly loves dogs and Pippi had a great time! Would definitely recommend Kristina and will gladly book again!”
“Great set up with the yard...friendly dogs...and Tara and her husband were very communicative. Dealing with them made you feel like they really cared and it wasn't just a job. Definitely recommend!”
“10/10 Highly recommend! Jamie did an amazing job with our pups. We haven't left them before for any period of time, so were a bit nervous about how they would do. Jamie was exactly the person they needed. She welcomed them into her home and made their stay absolutely perfect.”
“Ram and Anu were fantastic! They sent videos, photos and even brought Nikky to visit me at the hospital for a couple hours. They treated Nikky like their own... plenty of love and interaction and fun. I will definitely book them again. I recommend them to anyone who truly loves their pet. I loved the photos of their daughter reading to Nikky and played with him. Their Chocolate Lab was a great buddy for Nikky. They played very well together.”
“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for many years, and I truly see them as part of the family. I’m taking a dog groomer certification course, which has given me hands-on experience handling dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I am very comfortable reading a dog’s body language, recognizing when they’re nervous or uncomfortable, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve also helped in a dog daycare environment, where I gained experience caring for multiple dogs with different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for dogs at all stages of life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. My experience even includes assisting with a dog giving birth and helping care for newborn puppies. I understand how much attention and specialized care dogs can need during different stages of life. I’m comfortable following individual feeding, potty, medication, exercise, grooming, and daily care routines. I’m happy to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away and give them plenty of playtime, enrichment, affection, and cuddles. My goal is to provide the same loving, attentive care I’d want for my own dog—and to make sure you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I currently work a morning job 3 days a week until about noon, and I work afternoons mostly from home. i also live with multiple people who also can provide excellent care if I am away. My mother is also a Rover pet sitter :). We have our home sectioned off into 3 spots. a transition area for when your pet arrives. That leads into the living room where your pet is welcome on all furniture, plenty of space to play, and access to our fenced back yard. If your dog needs time to adjust to a new space this is a great option for them. We also have 2 bernedoodles, if your pet is comfortable then they are welcome into the the main space of the house with our dogs. They are gentle giants.
“Alex was great! Fantastic communications from the meet and greet through drop off and pick up. He sent photos of our pups almost every day. They were well taken care of and happy when we picked them up!”

Leslie-Ann gave the best care to our dog during our Christmas vacation! Molly got to experience many new activities and so much love and attention! She provides such pleasant updates and amazing photos while we are gone. Leslie-Ann was even able to accommodate Molly earlier than expected due to a weather-related concern. She made our last minute change very smooth as she helped ease my anxiety due to that rapid change of plans! Her entire family treats our dog with love and our dog is treated like part of the family!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Little Rapids can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Little Rapids home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Little Rapids.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Little Rapids. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Little Rapids sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
