“Super nice family and home with fenced yard. We needed someone on short notice due to a family emergency. Katie and Samuel offered to be flexible with our return date which we greatly appreciated. Juneau seemed to have done fine.”
“Robert was wonderful. I felt really good leaving my fur baby with him. He sent updates and pictures which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with Robert again.”
“Benito loved his stay with Cleda! We were worried cause he usually has separation anxiety, but with Cleda he was instantly happy, he had the best time, and Cleda is great at giving updates and lots of pictures of how Benito was doing! We are definitely becoming regulars ?”
“Suellen was amazing with Kanye! From the moment we connected, communication was easy and genuine. She kept us updated and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. The best part was seeing how happy and comfortable Kanye was with her you can tell she truly cares and connects with the pets she watches. We loved getting updates and seeing him so relaxed and joyful. Highly recommend Suellen we will absolutely book with her again!”
“Michelle was wonderful. She is super kind and so is her husband, Kevin. They handled my dog and his anxiety perfectly, couldn’t have asked for a better spot to board my dog :) he will definitely be my new go to when I need to go out of town!”
“Zhuhan did a fantastic job watching my cat! She sent multiple updates throughout the day with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was also incredibly flexible with both pickup and drop-off times and made the entire process so easy and stress-free. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and I knew my cat was in great hands the whole time. I would 10000000% use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter!”
“We are SO grateful to Alicia for all the consistent care & love she provides our lil’ guy, Modi, each time he stays with her. Our dog is a senior and quite sensitive to changes in routine. Alicia is a “natural” with him & we always know he is enjoying himself and very well cared for with her at her place. 5+ ⭐️!”
“My dog practically darted inside his house before I could say goodbye, always a good sign. Happy that he has other dogs of his own. At least my sweet boy has other friends around. Brad sent me a couple pics & kept me up to date about his behavior.”
“Katherine was fantastic!! Drop off was super quick and easy, and I got a bunch of great pictures throughout the day of my kitty enjoying her stay. I’d recommend to anyone who’s in need of boarding!”
“Finn had a wonderful time with Duane and Lauren. They took such good care of Finn, kept him happy, busy and excercised. Im so grateful! Will book again soon!”
“Tom was an excellent care taker for our golden retriever. He was kind, attentive and sent multiple pics and updates while our family was traveling. We’re grateful for finding him! Would definitely recommend him for watching your pet. We plan to use him in the future.”
“Juan has great! He and his son were very attentive with our dog. We were sent pictures throughout the day, and given updates about how our boy was doing! He has very high anxiety with strangers, and he had no problem calming down and napping with this family! When booking, we were told another dog would also be in Juan's care. He made sure that was okay with us, and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs never crossed paths (as we don't know if our dog is good with others yet) If you need a sitter, Juan is a great option! Very flexible, kind, and an overall great influence on your furry friend!”
“Last minute booking and sitter was super accommodating! Kept me posted with pics and videos. I felt super comfortable and that my pup was in good hands as soon as I walked in the door! Highly highly recommend!”
“Amy was awesome!!! We were so grateful to know that our little dog was in such capable and loving hands while we were on vacation. She was very communicative and provided great updates. We will definitely book with her again!!! Thanks Amy!!! 💕🐾”
“Estrella loved going to Sarah's house! She always has a fun time playing with Sarah's dogs and she met a new friend in the regular daycare dog they host. We got lots of adorable pictures and videos and Estrella came home tired and happy!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Madison
Adam and Alina were great with my dog! I got regular updates with how he was doing during the stay, and a full report from their daughter at pickup 😊 Zissou has stayed with them before and was excited at drop off to have another stay, which helped me feel at ease (sometimes people have separation anxiety too). I absolutely plan to use Adam and Alina again the next time I need a dog sitter!

There are 471 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Madison. About 92% of Madison sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
