We also love taking pictures with your pet and sending them while you are aware to ensure you your pet is being well taken care of.

Information Kristin & Bruce M. would like to know about your pet

As much information you can share with us about your pet is wonderful. Such as: What is the sleeping arrangement, how many treats do they get a day, do they usually sleep during the day or are they active, are they crate trained or not. We are happy to share pictures with you so you can see what your pet has been up to.

A typical day

Doing the week an adult will be at the home. There will be time for potty breaks and 15-30 minute walks. After school the kids will get the pet some attention by playing outside or inside. The ice age trail is very close so we have lots of trails we enjoy waking.

Pet care experience

We are an active family that would love to care for your pet out of our home. We live on the west side of madison between the super target in Fitchburg and Reddan soccer park in Verona. We love going on walks and being outside in our big back yard. If your pet is not into being active, my kids love cuddling up on the couch with your pet and watching movies. The adults work from home and love having your pet lay by our feet or lay in front of our sunny windows.

Arnie had a great time! He was well cared for and had lots of fun. I also appreciated Kristin and Bruce’s communication, and they were very kind to take on a last-minute booking!

Sunny always enjoy her time with Kristin, Bruce & the kids! We’re so grateful that she was able to stay there while we traveled overseas. We didn’t worry once about her. Thanks so much!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
