About: Hello, my name is Kaitlin! I love drawing and my muse are pets. I love animals and are often the subject of my art. I love to take my dogs out, it brings me joy seeing their tails wag as I say “Wanna go outside?” I believe a well exercised and a well fed dog is a happy one. I love all dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have cared for a total of five of my own dogs in my lifetime and I hope to take care of a lot more. I am confident in my ability to adapt to each pets specific needs. I ideally would love to care for your pet anytime as I have none in my current place. I long for a pet of my own once we are financially able to. I will care for the pet using instructions of the owner. I will make sure to supervise the pet in either my place or their place, either way I'll make sure they get there steps in as well as fed well.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every animal as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for pets through managing homes and vacation rentals, along with volunteering for animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, where I worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy or anxious animals, administering basic routines, and keeping pets on a consistent schedule. I’m very detail-oriented, dependable, and communicative, so pet parents always know their animals are safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and manage my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility and availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and companionship instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so caring for them feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a job. I also keep my schedule organized and communicate well with pet parents so they always feel informed and comfortable while they’re away. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision. I also make sure the home stays clean, secure, and well cared for while owners are away. Because I work from home and manage my own schedule, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, companionship, and check-ins throughout the day instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I have experience with animals of different temperaments through volunteering with animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, so I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, shy animals, and senior pets that may need extra patience and attention.
“Brooke was great! She responded super quickly even though I had a last minute emergency booking and she was great at sending pictures and updates on the walks. Thank you so much!”
“I can't thank Sam enough for the amazing communication and great care he takes of Meilah when he comes to let her out. My neighbors say he is great allowing her to sniff around and go potty. She is always very relaxed when we get home from work.”
About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.
About: I used to have a Shih-tzu named Eris who was a very sweet girl with lots of energy. I currently look after a French Bulldog from time to time who I absolutely love. I like working with small dogs/lap dogs but I can work with bigger dogs too. I work from home, and I have plenty of time to play with your dog or take them on walks. I spend most of my day ar my desk, and I would welcome the extra encouragement to go outside and take the dog for a walk. I live with two other family members who love dogs, so your dog will never go without attention. If your dog is small, then I will happily let them sit on my bed while I work, and I'll reach over to give them pets whenever they want. Larger dogs are welcome to lie in a dog bed by my desk, or downstairs on the couch with me.
“Megan has been wonderful. Our dogs are energetic and she has been very patient with them. I appreciate that Megan is on time and leaves me with detailed information after every visit.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats before. Pets are man’s best friend and I believe they deserve getting excellent care. Dogs and cats of all breeds, shapes and sizes will get above and beyond good quality care. I do have a full time job, my hours are Monday-Friday 7AM-3:30PM, and I have church obligations on Sunday mornings, but I am happy to coordinate availability outside of those times. I work a consistent weekday schedule from 7:00am–3:30pm, which allows me to provide reliable evening care, walks, and overnight house sitting. I am also available most weekends and can accommodate advance scheduling. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by maintaining clear communication, consistent routines, and attentive supervision. I respect each pet’s personality and adjust care to their individual needs.
About: I have had pets all my life. For nearly twenty years I grew up having multiple rescue dogs! I have always loved animals! For the past twenty plus years I have had cats. I have also had and cared for many types of small animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, gerbils, hamsters, birds as well as fish, turtles and hermit crabs! Presently, I volunteer my time with two local rescue organizations. I am dependable, reliable and flexible! From now through mid-June I have availability between 9-11am and 1-2pm. After mid June I am available all day with the exception of 11-1pm. I am available for walks and drop in visits! We have a fenced in back yard for our Golden Retriever. She is walked twice a day around our neighborhood. We try to spend as much time outside with her as possible. My cat is an indoor cat. Occasionally she walks with me around the yard with a leash and harness. I always make sure pet safety comes first!
About: While I’m new to Rover, I have real-life experience caring for dogs for friends and family. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, and providing a safe, positive environment. I’m attentive, responsible, and treat every dog like my own. I have a three year old son. He’s furry, feisty, yet loving…when he wants to be! I care for him everyday and make sure he has everything he needs..and some more! He’s a yorkie and is part of my everyday routine. I walk my dog Rocky everyday, feed him, play with him, bathe him, and shower him with love. He even has his own YouTube channel, MellowMindPup!
“This is the first time I’ve booked with Alicia and she was so friendly and great with my dog! She even went out of her way to help me with a key swap. She came by for a meet and greet before our trip and always spent a minimum of 30 minutes walking my dog and/or taking him to the dog park for some play time.”
“Very accommodating! Gave less than 24 hour notice that I needed my old gal walked and he made it happen. Very communicative and great pictures. Will definitely use Jason in the future!!”
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs since I was 16. My entire family now all have dogs of their own so I come from a large dog loving family. I’m ready and willing to take care of your dog as if they were part of my family. I’m a nurse so being caring is in my nature, this also allows me to be comfortable administering medications I’m currently a full time RN working 3 12 hour shifts a week, every third weekend so I have pretty flexible availability throughout the week. I live in an apartment that has a fenced in doggy park area. I have a small 12yo dog who still loves to play with other dogs and a 2yo cat who thinks he’s a dog and also likes to play and a new 3mo old golden retriever puppy

Emily was absolutely amazing from the first meet and greet to our last walks with her! She’s very attentive and truly listens and understands the individual dog’s needs. She provides wonderful picture updates where I can see how happy Nubbs truly was during his time with her. I was completely at ease knowing my dog was in such great hands and he was being cared for as if he was her own. So glad to have found Emily and would hire her again anytime!
I highly recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a dependable walker or sitter. During our two years working with Paulina, she has proven herself to be a great fit for my nervous pup. She has been so considerate of my pup’s needs, such as slowing down after she resumed walking her after my pup recovered from injuring her hip. She also adjusted her walking pace and route to keep my pup safe depending on the weather and different neighborhoods we’ve lived in. When things have come up in the past, she has always notified me with plenty of time for me to adjust my plans. She has also been respectful of my home the times that she has stayed over to care for my pup and kitties. I’m sad she won’t be walking my pup on a weekly basis anymore after her recent move, but look forward to hearing from her as a friend in the future. It’s been so fun getting to know her these last two years. She’s a truly wonderful woman who is smart, caring, and dependable. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy walker and sitter.
We love Kelly!! She’s been taking care of our animals when we go on long trips for years. We are so so sad that she’s moving away or else we would continue to have her look after them when we’re away. It’s going to be very hard to find someone that cares for our animals as much as she does!
