“Stephanie was great! She was easy to work with, took fantastic care of our pup. Our girl wasn't sure she wanted to leave. She sent lots of pictures and provided a fun and active environment. Would highly recommend!”
“Fabulous! Mack gave her 4 paws up and he would have given her more but he only has 4 paws. He has been online trying one to buy me more airline trips so he can go back to Steph and live the good life. Can’t praise her enough. Deb Spencley”
“Thanks so much for always taking such great care of Ollie! I truly appreciate knowing he's in good hands, happy and snuggled while I'm away. ❤️”
“Kaycee and Robert are the best! They took such good care of our little dog, who has never spent time away from us. They took him on walks, played with him, and kept him warm and safe. Our dog loved Tank (their dog) and the kids. He had a blast with this lovely family. They are kind and warm people who took excellent care of our dog. It is evident that they are expert dog owners who have fostered and trained many dogs. We will definitely book them next time we leave town. We highly recommend them!”
“Sofi took incredible care of our girl! She was always responsive and sent us frequent updates where I could see how happy Kiwi was. She is very knowledgeable about pet care and I would trust her with Kiwi anytime! Thank you again for giving so much love to Kiwi!!”
“Highly highly recommend Ellen! Our pup had the best time; we could tell immediately she would love him like we do. Great backyard, lots of updates and a very tired pup from so much play when we got home. We will definitely work with Ellen again!”
“Ryan and his family were super sweet and updated us regularly. Hank had a great time and was taken great care of. I plan to bring him back if they are available next time I am in need of a sitter in the area!”
“Da Yeon is amazing! We’ve booked with her a couple times and long story short, our dog likes her more than us. She’s flexible, kind and includes our dog in her outings so he can get some time outdoors. Highly recommend!”
“Shinduri is a fantastic sitter/boarder. Our dog is very well taken care of and enjoys the company of her and her dog. He also gets plenty of exercise with trips to the dog parks. We have boarded our poodle with her several times and couldn't be happier.”
“My dog Hugo had an excellent time with Ryan and Jocelyn! They were great communicators during her stay, and flexible with my schedule. I’ll definitely be using them again.”
“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!!! 💕🐾”
“We are so happy to have had Jen care for our dog for a long weekend out of town. It was our dogs first time staying with a non-family member so we were a little nervous but it was clear she loved staying with Jen and had so much fun. Jen is very professional and sent us several helpful updates throughout the weekend. Our dog had the best time with her. We will definitely be requesting future boarding stays with Jen!”
About: I have a dog of my own and I’ve done boarding, drop ins and walks before. I’ve grown up with dogs in the house and have watched family friends dogs numerous amounts of times. I currently work full time (8-4:30) during the week, but can do evenings on week days and any time during weekends! I am very flexible and can make anything work! I can abide by whatever schedules/routines you have in place. If your dog likes to socialize, my dog would be a great buddy! I understand dogs need to follow certain rules and need to be let out/fed in a timely manner.
“Jenna was wonderful taking care of our dog. She was attentive, friendly and happy to have our dog stay with her and her family. She sent us regular updates and photos during the stay. We would highly recommend Jenna and would book with her again.”
“Lucy had a great weekend with Jennifer! She got along great with Oscar. Tick season is pretty bad this year and Jennifer made sure to look over Lucy and keep her tick-free!”

Juan and Gabriel are amazing! Responsive, proactive, and available. You can see the effort put into their care for our pets. Gabriel always gives me a recap at the end of her stay, especially knowing she’s sensitive to certain food. My dog has never had any large issues. I’ll continue to use Juan and Gabriel to care my dog Lola.
Kiki did a wonderful job taking care of my husky, Saito, while I was away on my trip. There was an unexpected incident where Saito got into the dishwasher and became sick. Kiki handled the situation with great care, checking on him multiple times throughout the day to monitor his condition and make sure he didn't need to be taken to the vet. Thankfully, he started feeling better and made a full recovery. Throughout my trip, Kiki kept me updated with regular messages and sent plenty of photos of Saito having fun, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Kiki to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter 🙂↕️

There are 451 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Madison. About 93% 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.

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.
