Shawna did an outstanding job caring for our dogs for the very first time! We were so impressed that we'll never board them again if we don't have to. Shawna was incredibly punctual, professional, and personable, and she communicated exceptionally well throughout her time with our little guys. Even with a lot going on before we headed out of town, our "chaos" didn't faze her one bit. She truly went above and beyond, sending us little videos of our happy dogs, which my daughter and I absolutely loved. We felt completely at ease knowing she was looking after our precious pups. We've already discussed future dog-sitting dates with her and can't wait to use her services again!

About: As mentioned, I work in vet med! I am experienced with all ages, temperaments, breeds, health issues, and needs! I love a couch potato but I also own and love a working breed. I understand the importance of routine & mental stimulation! I spoil my fur children & understand wanting to keep yours happy while you’re away, but also able to trust that they’re safe! I own a dog that is overcoming his reactivity & that has required a lot of training & positive reinforcement work from myself in the presence of triggers—so I understand the difference in reactivity/anxiety vs aggression. I work full time Fridays through Mondays currently, but I have full availability during the week on Tuesdays through Thursdays. I don’t mind early mornings or late nights I would never leave someone’s pet unattended while under my care. I like for pets to have my full attention when I’m there. It’s what I’d expect & would want for my own! I’m very familar with canine & feline body language, anxiety, & aggression, and I know how to appropriately and effectively approach/handle pets whether they’re scared, reactive, or excited!

About: I have been raised with cats and dogs and my whole life! I love animals, and have had my golden retriever Lou for 3 years. I am currently in medical school, and am looking to make extra cash while getting to babysit cute pups! My school schedule is pretty wonky and all over the place, no week looks the same. However, if you ever need the evenings and weekends off I am your guy! I take my dog on 3-4 walks a day ranging from 10-30 minutes depending on how hot it is. When the sun is about to set I usually take him to the dog park to play for a bit to get worn out before bed! He has a basket of toys to play with and I always try to find enrichment games for him to play.

About: I have pretty much taken in every stray my parents have allowed me too ever since I could remember. Growing up i’ve had a variety of dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and chickens. My mother and I moved to Olive Branch in November and since then I’ve been volunteering at a horse ranch a couple of miles from me. I love being outdoors so if you babies need a walk, I am more than happy to oblige! I will say the only service I can not offer is, your babies staying with me. My own dog is reactive to other dogs, from past traumas. I just graduated High-school and will be working part time, so I have all the time needed for your babies! Also if any plants need to be taken care of I can do so as well. I am available for weekends, early morning, mid-day, and even over night if needed. At my house my animals are spoiled, so I will treat your babies the same. They will get a multitude of cuddles, and just leave any special instructions like meals or medication. (However I am not specialized in injections.)

About: I love all animals - big & small! I have consistently owned dogs and cats throughout my life and have had some non-traditional pets as well such as potbelly pigs, a duck, a chicken, various birds (mostly rescues), rabbits, fish, turtles, hampsters, guinnea pigs and more. I am self employed and I work from home (or anywhere) so I can take time out during the day to care for pets and animals. I am honest and trustworthy and I am available to visit client homes to care for their pets or host pets in my home, if needed. I am available to walk dogs, feed/clean up after pets and love them! I can also do house sitting and stay with your fur babies if needed.

Thomas did a great job dropping in on our two cats while we were away for a long weekend. He was attentive in getting to know their needs, followed all instructions exactly, and left our place tidy. As first time Rover users, we appreciated the time he took to explain both the system and his approach to pet care/visits. We would hire him again in the future.

About: I’ve been a pet owner since my early teens. I have a habit of spoiling my pets and I’ll likely spoil yours while in my care. 😃 I work full time outside of the home. During the summer months someone is home with the pets. I have a doggy door that is accessible for pets to use. My 2 dogs would love to have your pet as a play mate. I have a fenced yard and doggy door for use while I’m away from home. My 2 teenage children are around to give your pets extra love and attention too.

About: Hi, I’m Morgan! Dogs are my passion, and I’ve spent 12+ years caring for pups of all ages. With 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant and a background in animal science, I know how to keep dogs happy, healthy, and safe. I love keeping dogs active — a tired pup is a happy pup! I provide dog-sitting, dog-walking, bathing, and drop-ins, following all care instructions carefully and sending picture updates so you can see your furry friend enjoying their day. I currently work full-time, so I’m available after my shift on weekdays and full-time on weekends. I have one friendly dog to keep your pup company and can accommodate shy or special-needs dogs. I also have a spacious yard and access to nearby dog parks during quiet times for safe play. I’d love the opportunity to help keep your dog happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away! I work full-time at a veterinary hospital from 7:00 AM–3:00 PM on weekdays. Outside of these hours, I’m available for drop-ins or pet care as needed. I’m also free on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care to meet your pet’s schedule and needs. I provide a range of personalized pet care services, including drop-ins, dog-walking, and more. For drop-ins, I visit your home to provide fresh food and water, administer medication if needed, and give plenty of love and attention. I also engage with your pets through playtime, walks, or activities suited to their personality, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. If pets are in my care at my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with attention, playtime, and exercise. I always follow your specific care instructions, from dietary needs to medication and routines, so your pet feels right at home.

I am available before work (6-8 am), during my lunch hour which is flexible (11 am-2 pm), and after work (5:30-9pm). Weekends I am available 6 am-9 pm, unless house sitting. As a flexible sitter with a passion for animals, I offer a variety of services to meet your pet care needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Madison on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 167 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Madison. 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 Madison 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 Madison 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 .

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.

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 Madison with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Madison. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 85% 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.

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.
