“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”

“Nakia’s stay with Eli and Mattison was a great success. She enjoyed their fenced in yard so much. Per her pictures, it looked like she settled right in. Once home, she settled right in again. That is a great thing. She tends to be somewhat nervous, but she was not at all. I believe Eli and Mattison are super caregivers for our Nakia. Thank you so very much. Hopefully, she will be able to stay there in the future.”

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful!! She took amazing care of my dog Maisie. My dog had so much fun with her and the other dogs. Jessica helped manage her allergies and was in contact with me everyday with updates, pictures, and videos. Would definitely book with her again. You can tell she cares a lot n treated my dog as her own she was in such good hands. I could enjoy my vacation without worrying. She’s so wonderful!!! Cant thank her enough for taking care of my baby girl.”

“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.”

“Julie & her family were AMAZING with our girl! We got pictures everyday from their walk & naps. It was such a relief to know our dog was taken care of and in the best of hands. 100% will book with Julie again!”

“David did an absolutely wonderful job with watching our Willow. Even with it being a holiday he did except Willow for boarding for 9 days. He even took her to his Grandmas house for Christmas. He sent day by day pics and text messages. Willow made new people friends and doggy friends. I will definitely use David for my boarding needs if ever I need one again. Thank you David Dawn Reeves”

“Ronalisa is very kind. She has a really nice yard for Spunky and Boss to run around. Very responsive. My dogs enjoyed their staycation with her and her fur babies. Spunky and Boss came home tired and happy. Recommend her 10/10.”

“Hazel stayed with Yoki and Derek for over a week and had a great time. I know that Hazel can be a handful and can demand a lot of attention at times. I felt like Yoki and Derek really understood Hazel’s needs and took very good care of her. I can tell that they treat all dogs in their care like family and that was wonderful to see. They are very generous and giving people. Their very big and spacious yard was great for Hazel to run around and play in. I also really appreciated the daily communication which was very important to me. I loved receiving videos, beautiful photos and updates on a daily basis and it gave me so much peace of mind and showed me that Hazel was well taken care of and was enjoying her stay. I’m very appreciative to Yoki and Derek for their work especially since I know this is not always an easy job to do.”

“Michelle and her family are the greatest. I screwed up the schedule and literally dropped my dog off at her house at 7 am ON THE WRONG DAY, and she was so accommodating, flexible, and kind about it. She took such good care of my dog Luna and provided daily updates and pictures. 100% recommend and will use her again!!”

“Our boys were so we'll taken care of. Daily updates as to how it's going with pictures. Katy and Dennis were so flexible with our travel changes. Once we picked up our boys they took the longest nap. So thankful we think we have finally found a amazing pet sitter.”

“Erik and his family were awesome. My dogs were much happier than when I used a boarding facility. Would use them again and recommend highly. Thank you Erik and your family for treating my dogs like family.”

About: Animals have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember—from growing up around my family’s German Shepherd breeding and training work, to years of rescuing and fostering both dogs and cats. I can provide continuous supervision, regular potty and play breaks, and plenty of outdoor exercise tailored to each dog's energy level and temperament. My home currently includes one calm, dog-friendly resident cat, making for a peaceful, low-stress environment where guest dogs receive focused care and affection. I have worked with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies and kittens. I am experienced with administering medications and experienced with disabled dogs. I work remotely and am home full-time with a flexible work schedule. I can provide 24/7 care for your dog or cat. I am also available for walks throughout the day and week. While boarding in my home, I am able to be available for feeding or potty breaks as needed. I am able to watch the dog or cat to see what they need when. If I am providing drop in visits or walks, my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and evenings.
“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.”

“Just… WOW! Words cannot describe how pleased we are to have finally found such amazing people like Perrin and Carrie to watch after our dogs while we were away. For years we’ve tried every type of boarding center and other dog sitters on Rover, but the Sanderson Ranch truly takes the cake. Not only is their property a true dog haven but you can trust them to keep your pets safe, exercised, and entertained for days on end. We received lots of updates, honest feedback, and a full report card upon our return so you know they take their dog-sitting duties seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will open their hearts to your pets and care for them as much as you do, look no further.”

“Alex and Hannah gave lots of TLC with nice walks in the wooded trails nearby. They were extremely accommodating when we arrived late and then had a delayed return. Thanks!”

“Sofi took wonderful care of our Poppy! Poppy was very nervous at the beginning of her stay but Sofi seemed to gently help her warm to her new surroundings! We appreciate that very much! We also appreciated her frequent photo updates! We recommend Sofi to others! Thank you again!”

“We had an excellent experience using Eunice for our dog Ozzy while we were on vacation. He’s an elderly dog and she did a great job catering to his needs. We received daily updates and pictures. We felt very at ease that he was in good hands, we will definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their North Shore 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 North Shore.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your North Shore sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
