“Tami is great. Our dogs are kind of weirdos, but she figured out their unique personalities quickly and sent lots of photos and updates. We will definitely hire her again!”
“Brandi is fantastic!!! I always have a relaxing and worry free time when away knowing she is home with our two dogs. I especially love the notes she takes that includes walks, eating, water and more. We even have a skittish and more challenging dog that has really warmed up her. I highly recommend!!!”
About: I grew up with two small dogs and adore them with my heart. I have house sat and caregived for different family friends. I have experience with caregiving for elderly and adults with special needs while taking care of pet needs as well. I love fitness and enjoy walking or running with dogs. I work part-time as a personal trainer and fitness instructor. My schedule is currently flexible as I continue to build up my clientele. There are some down times that I'm willing to take care of your dog. I will take care of your dog according to your request and pet's needs. If you need me to feed or take them potty at a certain time, I will be diligent to meet your expectation. If you need me to love or give attention to your pup, I can do that as well.
“Vonnie took very good care of all of our fur babies. She contacted us with updates and questions. She also watched our house and everything was nice and clean when we returned. Would definitely use her again and recommend her for your your fur babies.”
“Susana is the best. We have used her for our 2 dogs on multiple occasions. She sends lots of pictures, spends a lot of time exercising them in our yard, and checks in if anything unusual occurs. Our home is always well cared for as well. Never a worry while away.”
“Amelie and Stephen sat for our dog, Dexter, and our cat, Lucy, while we were out of town for a weekend. We felt incredibly assured during our time away that our pets were being well cared for and provided with lots of love. We were given consistent updates on how the stay was going and what our animals were up to. They graciously provided many pictures during the stay that continued to provide us with a sense of calm knowing our fur babies were in very good hands. We have already rebooked with them for a future trip, and will continue to do so! We cannot recommend them enough!”
“Abigail is a terrific pet sitter! She was thorough, conscientious and kind, and went above and beyond while caring for my elderly cat Sammy. She showed true concern, compassion, and love for my cat and kept her warm, fed, and happy. Abigail was also able to apply Sammy’s medication daily. She did extra things too like cleaning up the kitchen area, taking out the trash, and watering the plants. Abigail was also very generous with her time. You can rest easy if you hire Abigail to care for your pets! I will be using her again when I travel out of town.”
“Katherine was amazing! She watched my dog in my home for 7 days and went above and beyond the entire time. She kept me updated every day, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog loved her, and I could tell she was well cared for and happy. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages from puppies to senior dogs in the last 10 years! Taking them on walks, playing fetch, bathing, and snuggling! Please reach out if you’re interested or want to ask additional questions!! Can’t wait to hear from you! I am student teaching right now so I am mostly available in the late afternoons/evenings. Usually around 4 or 5pm I’m available for walks or to let them out and play! I have a golden retriever and corgi and very friendly neighbor dogs as well!

About: From working/volunteering at shelters to pet sitting for friends and family, I have 10+ years of experience caring for furry friends of all ages, personalities, and sizes! Most all of my pet care has been limited to cats and dogs, but I am willing to work with small critters, birds and reptiles with the right care instructions/tutorials. I am not typically squeamish, so I am open to handling clean up and medication - please message me for specifics. As a dog mom myself, I understand that each pet requires different levels of care and attention, and am willing to meet them where they’re at! However, I do not offer training services and might not be the most compatible caretaker for pets that exhibit aggressive behaviors (I am open to discussing). Additionally, I am a full time graduate student, so care in the early morning and evenings will work best for my week day schedule. I will be available some holidays (i.e., Thanksgiving). My availability may also change from time to time, so please be sure to check my profile or message me. Choosing me means your pet will receive quality care, and that all the updates you receive will include cute pics! As a full time student, my weekday availability might mean limited check-ins, but your pet is always the priority! - Monday & Tuesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Wednesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 7 PM - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Friday: 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM; after 3:00 PM - Saturday & Sunday: Flexible! I will need a few hours in the morning and some afternoons to volunteer. For pet sitting, I can provide the following: - Feeding and hydration - Exercise and play - Maintenance and cleaning of pets environment (e.g., litter box, crate, etc.) - Medication administration - Light housekeeping (e.g., bringing mail in, watering plants, taking out trash, etc.) - Text/photo/video updates
“Loved Alex so much! I have an anxious little lady and the minute Alex walked in Soph laid on the floor and wanted tummy rubs. She had a very calming presence which was so comforting knowing she would be in good hands. She was so easy to communicate with and kept us updated while we were gone. Would love to use her again ❤️”
“Maya was AWESOME! We needed a last minute Rover to stay at our house and watch our 2 pups for a night and she was such a good fit for the job. Super communicative & sweet — we always received the cutest pupdates. Our dogs were 100% in great hands & we’ll definitely be booking with Maya in the future! 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mukwonago
Great experience through and through from the initial meeting to the high level of communication and great pictures during her stay and even washing and drying the sheets from the bed she slept in. We arrived home to a very happy puppy too. We highly recommend!
My husband and I were gone for two weeks while Brandi took care of our two dogs at our home. It was great knowing we had a trusted person taking care of our fur babies and having a presence in our home while gone. We always come home to happy, well cared for dogs that love Brandi. She diligently writes a journal for us to read on how our dogs did on their walk, diet, medicine and affection. The way she writes shows her attention to detail and emotional state of our dogs. This is important to us as one of our dogs is very skittish and fearful of people. It’s cute to see how that relationship develops and strengthens even more each time Brandi watches them for us. We highly recommend Brandi.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Mukwonago walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mukwonago maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Mukwonago choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
