“Ann & Arman were incredible! Gracious, warm and welcoming are just a few adjectives to describe them. Darby was welcomed with open arms and treated like family from the moment she got there. They kept in touch throughout her stay, sending photos and notes which we appreciated. Almost afraid to give 5 stars so they'll available when we need them :)”
“Zach was great! I really appreciate he receives one client per booking, that was helpful for my anxious dog. They loved being couch potatoes and going to the outside to play and hunt invisible animals. My dogs felt at home really fast! Also he was willing to learn a couple of commands in Spanish to communicate with my mexican dogs ❤️.”
“We had a fantastic experience boarding our dog Cleo with Katie!!! She was very communicative and sent us lots of updates and photos throughout the week. We knew Cleo was being loved and taken care of the entire time we were away. 10/10 experience!”
“Kristine took great care of Twyla. She communicated well and shared photos of her each day. It looked like she got lots of exercise and social time with her dog Cooper and the other dogs she cared for during the day. When we picked her up after her stay, she was clean and seemed to be pretty comfortable in Kristine’s home. We will continue to use her in the future.”
“Mary was such a wonderful dog sitter! My family and I were always checking my phone for updates with the pictures and videos she would send! She had all the necessary things provided over the 4 days! We showed up with our pups and their food and they were good to go! Thank you for everything, the dogs had a blast running around with the other dogs! I would highly recommend, certainly will use her again!”
“Karen, Toy and family were very sweet with my old neurotic hound dog for a weekend stay while I had to work. Picture updates, lots of treats and she didn't even seem to be desperate to go back home (like she usually is) after her stay. Very grateful for the help and great experience!”
“Ester did such a good job with our Golden Retriever! We reached out last minute and she was so accommodating. Quick response time, and Tucker had a blast. 🐾💗”
“I was able to relax while being on my trip knowing my baby was in the best hands ever! She sent tons of pictures and very attentive to my baby. It was his home away from home! He will be back!”
“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”
“This was our first time boarding our dog Milo. Jill made him feel at home and they bonded immediately. She answered our pet parent texts and sent pictures to put our minds at ease. When we picked Milo up after three days, he was happy to see us, but not in a rush to leave. This was a very pleasant experience for all of us.”
“Courtney was an unbelievable sitter for Baxter while we were away. She kept us posted with updates and we were sure he was having almost as much fun as we were on vacation. She clearly knows pets and was on top of all his needs. I am sure he got excellent care based on everything demonstrated in our meet and greet and the updates. She was highly knowledgeable and the socialization did him a world of good. Thanks again Courtney and we hope to book with you again in the future.”
“Elba saved the day when I needed a pet sitter last minute. She took great care of my Schatzi. Elba sent me pictures of Schatzi when I was away. Unfortunately, I had no Wifi where I was staying at but still it was nice to open the text with pictures of her having fun. I won’t hesitate to use Elba’s services in the future.”
“Amy and her fiancé were great with Brody! They were able to watch him for us last minute and were super flexible with dropping him off and picking him up! They really took the time to show us around where he would be staying and getting to know him and his schedule/tendencies/etc. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and they were so genuine with their care! Absolutely would recommend and use again!”
“Debbie always takes good care of my dog, she keeps me updated daily and treats my dog as her own. She goes above and beyond in caring for my dog which I truly appreciate. Always a good experience!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Milwaukee is $45

Flor was such an amazing sitter for our pups! We needed someone to care for our girls while we went to summerfest and I’m so glad we found her. She was very communicative and proactive with our dogs, and mentioned many things she does for dogs that are above and beyond, like rolling up a towel with treats or food (which is something we do at home with ours but have never asked or mentioned to a sitter previously). I was worried about our girls, especially our older one, because Flor and her partner were watching them during an extreme heat wave, but they took such great care and only took them out very late, and even prepared frozen fruit for them (they didn’t eat any apparently but at least they had the option!). As soon as I dropped our dogs off, we got very sweet pictures of them cuddling on the couch, and lots of videos and pictures over the 24 hour stay. I would absolutely have Flor watch our girls again! Thank you so much for taking them into your home!
Emily was incredible! We left our pup with her for over a week as we travelled for a vacation. Leela received so much attention and care from her! Emily also sent us regular updates and communication was easy and smooth. Thank you so much Emily for caring for her so well :)
Angela was extremely generous and did a very nice informal meet up so that my (small) dog could meet her sweet (large) dog just to make sure the two would get along. We met at a nearby park and the meet up was fun and successful. I then left my dog with Angela and her husband for one night, again to do a short trial stay before attempting a longer one. Angela and her husband could not have been more gracious and kind. My dog is quirky and anxious but he got along very well with the entire household. I would recommend Angela to anyone looking for a kind and patient caregiver. The night at Angela's went very well but, sadly, my dog has a strange habit of being skittish about some types of flooring...wood floors or floors that look like wood being one of his goofy fears. Angela's beautiful home has lovely wood floors that my dog just refused to walk on and so he will likely need to keep looking for a boarding home that has carpeting. Sigh. While I may not be able to use Angela in the future, she is terrific and I envy people who have dogs that will walk on all kinds of flooring!
Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Pretzel and Stella during a two-week stay. As the first sitter outside of friends and family I've ever trusted with my dogs, I was understandably nervous but she put those worries to rest immediately. She kept me consistently informed throughout the entire booking, which made such a difference. I came home to two happy, healthy pups and total peace of mind. She clearly genuinely cares about the animals in her care. I'm already looking forward to booking with her again!
So kind and accommodating. It was great that she had a dog as it helped mine feel at ease. Sara asked for a meet & greet to make sure we were on the same page. Thank you for taking him to the dog park, his favorite place to be. Will definitely ask to rebook with her if needed on my next visit. Thank you Sara!
I found Mikalanne a month ago and kept them in mind for future petsitter needs and I’m glad I did. Reptar has severe separation anxiety and when it was time to say goodbye, Mikalanne distracted him by taking a quick jog up the street - making an otherwise stressful moment for Reptar a fun moment of play. From the daily updates, I knew how Reptar was doing and it gave me peace of mind during our time a part. I will definitely be booking services with Mikalanne in the future, clearly Reptar likes them!
Agustin was amazing! He was able to take Ryder last minute, and helped coordinate with my mom when I was across the country and plans changed. He was very responsive and quick to messages. He was very flexible and allowed me to pick up my dog late in the evening. Ryder was happy and tired when he came home. Agustin was able to accommodate mh is needs dog, staying with him the entirety of his stay as he has separation anxiety. He was able to give him multiple walks, and lots of time with his pup Ziggy. Ziggy and Ryder seemed to bond and enjoy playing and elf ing time together. Ryder can be a barky boy, but he was accepting of him and still let him people watch through his beautiful, giant window. I would definitely rebook with Agustin if needed in the future.

There are 860 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Milwaukee. About 93% of Milwaukee 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.

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 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.
