“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!”
“Brandon and Katy are lovely! They were very helpful moving my dog's crate and getting him settled. Sammy had a great time playing and cuddling.”
“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!”
“Holly and Ana Maria were incredible! They were extremy communicative, very very sweet and kept me in the loop with how Leche was doing every single day. Holly and Maria have both cats and dogs that are extremely well socialized around other cats. Though Leche was scared at first, she was able to get more and more comfortable each day and I knew this because Ana Maria was keeping me updated frequently with pictures and videos showing Leche's progress. They played with her, fed her, gave her space and lots of love! Thank you Holly and Ana Maria! I would recommend anyone decide to go with them for their pet sitting needs. :)”
“Zoe was well cared for at Hannah and her family‘s home. We appreciated the updates and pictures very much. We will definitely have Zoe back again another time when we travel.”
“Suellen took such good care of my one year-old puppy. I was a little nervous to leave her since I just adopted Winnie three months ago and she has isolation anxiety, but she had a wonderful time staying with Suellen. You can tell she really loves dogs by the way she interacts with them. Her backyard is the perfect set up for dogs to play. Winnie really enjoyed the other two dogs in the house. I received regular updates which helped ease my worries while away. I would highly recommend Suellen!”
“Jesse was so great with lady, she LOVED him! Jesse sent lots of pictures and it looks like they had a lot of fun. We’ll definitely reach out to him again if we’re back in the area!”
“Tom was fantastic. His extensive knowledge about dogs was evident, and he invested the time to ensure that Pocket had a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to utilize his services again.”
“Olivia is amazing!!! Our Nutka stay with Olivia for a week. This was Nutka’s first time away from us which may have been difficult at her 4 years of age. Olivia created adjustment meetings to ensure Nutka was happy and transitioned well. It worked! Nutka loved being with Olivia! Words to describe Olivia include: loving, thoughtful, intelligent, caring, and dependable. We are definitely returning and highly recommend Olivia to anyone!”
“I was very nervous to leave my dog Bailey. 1. I had never left her and 2.She had a small issue with her paw just before my vacation. When informing him about the issues and the shedding problem , there were no hesitations on what needs to be done to keep up with the grooming. You should have no worries when you hire this person. The communication, the pictures,the condition of my dogand the level of care were outstanding. I was very lucky to find somebody on short notice and appreciate the sensitivity and kindness. Thank you, Shawn, for all your help and for making Bailey such a happy girl for the days I was gone.”
“Mikaela and Theo are great puppy sitters. Mikaela was careful to get feeding and care information. Theo did his part in exercising my boys. The big yard provided lots of running space for playing chase. Next time I am 8n Madison I will definitely be calling Mikaela and Theo.”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, I cared for rabbits, hamsters, mice, and a pet rat. Today I share my home with my 13 year old cat, Meeko, and my housemate’s friendly 12 year old dog. I recently said goodbye to my senior cat after 16 wonderful years together. During the last few years of his life, I administered medication multiple times a day and became experienced in caring for an aging pet with extra medical needs. That experience strengthened my patience, attention to detail, and understanding that every pet deserves individualized, compassionate care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own pets. I work full-time during the week 8:30-4:30, so I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks before and after work (6-7:30 AM, and after 4:30 pm M-F), as well as most weekends and holidays. I also offer limited weekend boarding for one dog at a time so I can provide each guest with plenty of individual attention and care. My goal is to be flexible while making sure every pet receives the time and attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know pets thrive on routine, so I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to medications, favorite toys, and bedtime routines. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and lots of affection. I understand that having a stranger in the house can be stressful for both pets and owners, so I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. For boarding, I have a securely fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play. I only accept one boarding dog at a time so I can provide a calm, personalized experience and ensure every pet receives plenty of attention. My home also includes my cat and my housemate’s dog, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable around cats and other dogs. This helps create a calm, safe environment for everyone.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Monona is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Monona
Holly & Ana Maria were absolutely wonderful with our dog! He stayed with them for about a week and had the time of his life with their friendly dogs and cat. Holly & Ana Maria are kind and patient and were attentive to our dog’s needs (feeding schedule, walks, potty breaks, sleeping arrangement). They kept updating us about his meals, demeanor, and walks with cute pictures and messages. Our dog was very comfortable and happy with them for that week. We will definitely book them next time we are out of town. We entrusted them with our dog and they certainly delivered. We highly recommend them! 💙 Thank you Holly & Ana Maria for giving our dog love and care. He had a great time with his new human caretakers and animal friends!
Our dog’s stay at Margaret’s home was comfortable and uneventful. Margaret followed our directives and spend great quality time with Della, especially exercising her. We were given several updates daily, with photos. She quickly got to know our dog well as a result our dog felt safe and relaxed there. It was our first time using a Rover sitter for Della and we were pleased.
My dog Lola seem to have an amazing time. All the dogs they were caring for were very friendly with a lot of room to run. It was nerve-racking, leaving my dog however, my dog seem to have the time of her life lol. I will rebook with them whenever I need dog care and would recommend anyone doing so as well
Nicolette was an amazing caretaker for my babies while I was gone for a few weeks! She sent me photos and videos of them and provided updates on how my shy girl was opening up throughout her stay. The dogs were super happy and comfortable with Nicollete when I came to pick them up, with one of them almost looking disappointed to leave lol! I will definitely book again when I have another trip due to her great care for my babies.😊
Alicia was great with Ginger! Since Ginger is a senior dog, I wanted her to stay in a caring home rather than a kennel. Alicia kept me updated and sent lots of pictures, and I could tell my girl was happy and comfortable. I really appreciated the great care she gave her and would definitely book again.
Very responsive which was really appreciated! There were more dogs there during the stay than I anticipated. I was pretty nervous because I have a rescue dog who is nervous around other dogs, but we were sent a lot of pictures and a video of him running around the backyard with a group of other dogs. So whatever she did manage all the dogs seemed to work!
Mikaela took excellent care of our pup, Luna. Her home truly became Luna’s home away from home this summer. We loved receiving pictures from their walks, and Luna and Mikaela’s pup, Theo, became the best of friends! I also appreciated Mikaela’s flexibility when our travel plans were in flux. She is a wonderful sitter and so easy to work with. Luna’s looking forward to her next stay at Mikaela’s!
Our aussies had a great visit with Erin and family! We did a meet and greet first so they would feel comfortable. Erin checked in a few times during the visit with photos and updates on how they were doing, so I had peace of mind to not worry about them. We would book again!
Megan, Nick, and their daughters (and Banjo) treated Tilly like part of their family during her first stay with them. This was the first time we left Tilly with others since she joined our family. We were so appreciative of the photo and text updates and we felt great knowing Tilly was in such good care. Tilly got great exercise in their large, fenced in back yard and received a lot of attention. We definitely recommend this loving, caring family.
My dog’s week with Tanya & her dog, Zuki, couldn’t have been better! Tanya was attentive to my dog’s needs, he enjoyed running around her fenced yard & played enthusiastically with the resident dog, Zuki. Tanya sent frequent photos & video updates. She went above & beyond with Miles, noticing his need for mental stimulation & giving him puzzles & time to practice new tricks. I wouldn’t hesitate to book a sit at Tanya & Hutch’s place again—their wonderful care made being away from my dog much easier!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Monona home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Monona.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
